Project description:Bevacizumab, an antibody against vascular endothelial generated factor (VEGF), combined with the fluorouracil-based chemotherapy regimens has been approved in the 1st and 2nd line treatments for metastatic colorectal cancers(mCRC). Other inhibitors of the VEGF pathway, such as Ramucirumab and Aflibercept are also approved in the 2nd line therapy. Apatinib is a small molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), which can highly selectively bind to and strongly block VEGF receptor 2 (VEGFR - 2), resulting in reduced cell migration, proliferation, and tumor microvascular density mediated by VEGF . In this study, the patients who have progressed following or on the first-line oxaliplatin and fluorouracil（5-FU） combined with bevacizumab are randomised into two arms(FOLFIRI plus apatinib or FOLFIRI plus bevacizumab) in the 2nd line setting. To identify specific biomarkers at the genetic and proteomic levels between two arms is the primary end point.

For control groups, mice were treated with humanized Fc (Regeneron). 5 biological replicates were performed for the control group and 4 biological replicates were performed for the treatment group

Project description:IFN-γ has been reported to be the ABC-promoting cytokine combined with signaling from IL-21, CD40L, Ag-BCR and TLR7 agonist. Hence, we adopted the in vitro differentiation cocktails (anti-IgM, R848, anti-CD40, IL-21 plus IFN-γ or IL-4) to determine the role of IFN-γ in ABC differentiation. Mouse splenic B cells were purified by negative selection and cultured in the presence of the above cocktails. Compared with IL-4, IFN-γ-polarized cells preferentially differentiated to ABC-like cells. And RNA-seq were performed on IFN-γ-polarized cells and IL-4-polarized cells.

Project description:Macrophages are known to be polarized into inflammatory (M1) and immunoregulatory (M2) cells when they are stimulated by agonists such as IFN-gamma and IL-4, respectively. If circulating monocytes may be polarized in response to T cell signals is often misguidedly deduced from macrophage results. Here the transcriptional responses of human CD14+ monocytes to IFN-gamma and IL-4 were analyzed using whole genome microarrays. A principal component analysis and hierarchical clustering showed that monocyte and macrophage responses were distinct. Monocytes stimulated with IFN-gamma and IL-4 for 6 hours exhibited some features of macrophage polarization. Indeed, when 80 genes considered as M1 and M2 genes were analyzed, we found that M1 genes were modulated in response to IFN-gamma and that M2 genes were modulated in response to IL-4. The M1 polarization of monocytes was transient because only M2 genes were modulated when monocytes were stimulated with IFN-gamma and IL-4 for 18 hours. However, the activation of monocytes by IFN-gamma and IL-4 could not be reduced to M1/M2 polarization status. Indeed, monocytes exhibited early specific signatures composed of 46 and 39 up-regulated genes in response to IFN-gamma and IL-4, respectively, and a late signature common to both molecules that consisted of 57 up-regulated genes. Taken together, these results demonstrated the extreme plasticity of human monocytes and suggested the existence of a core transcriptional termination program. Using early and late signatures might be pertinent to investigate monocyte activation in inflammatory or infectious diseases. Monocytes were stimulated with IFN-gamma (20ng/mL) or IL-4 (20ng/mL) for 6 and 18 hours or culture for 6 and 18 hours without agonist (Unstimulated samples). Monocytes-derived-macrophages (MDM) stimulated with IFN-gamma and IL-4 for 18 hours were used as controls. Each microarray is derived from a single biological sample.

Project description:Qi2013 - IL-6 and IFN crosstalk model
This model
[BIOMD0000000544]
describes the crosstalk between IFN-gamma and IL-6 induced
signalling; it aims to outline mechanisms and factors that may
control the interaction between both signalling pathways,
discussing a role of heterodimer formation in signalling
dysfunction.
To account for the possibility of different IFNR and gp130
binding sites for STAT1 and STAT3, model 1
[BIOMD0000000543]
assumes that there is no competition between STAT1 and STAT3 for
the receptor complexes (includes two extra reactions).
The reverse of this is true in model 2
[BIOMD0000000544]
where it generally is assumed that there is competition between
STAT1 and STAT3 for the receptor complexes.

Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) and interleukin-6
(IL-6) are multifunctional cytokines that regulate immune
responses, cell proliferation, and tumour development and
progression, which frequently have functionally opposing roles.
The cellular responses to both cytokines are activated via the
Janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription
(JAK/STAT) pathway. During the past 10 years, the crosstalk
mechanism between the IFN-gamma and IL-6 pathways has been
studied widely and several biological hypotheses have been
proposed, but the kinetics and detailed crosstalk mechanism
remain unclear. RESULTS: Using established mathematical models
and new experimental observations of the crosstalk between the
IFN-gamma and IL-6 pathways, we constructed a new crosstalk
model that considers three possible crosstalk levels: (1) the
competition between STAT1 and STAT3 for common receptor docking
sites; (2) the mutual negative regulation between SOCS1 and
SOCS3; and (3) the negative regulatory effects of the formation
of STAT1/3 heterodimers. A number of simulations were tested to
explore the consequences of cross-regulation between the two
pathways. The simulation results agreed well with the
experimental data, thereby demonstrating the effectiveness and
correctness of the model. CONCLUSION: In this study, we
developed a crosstalk model of the IFN-gamma and IL-6 pathways
to theoretically investigate their cross-regulation mechanism.
The simulation experiments showed the importance of the three
crosstalk levels between the two pathways. In particular, the
unbalanced competition between STAT1 and STAT3 for IFNR and
gp130 led to preferential activation of IFN-gamma and IL-6,
while at the same time the formation of STAT1/3 heterodimers
enhanced preferential signal transduction by sequestering a
fraction of the activated STATs. The model provided a good
explanation of the experimental observations and provided
insights that may inform further research to facilitate a
better understanding of the cross-regulation mechanism between
the two pathways.

Project description:A growing body of evidence suggests that inflammatory cytokines have a dualistic role in immunity. In this study, we sought to determine the direct effects IFN-gamma on the differentiation and maturation of human peripheral blood monocyte-derived dendritic cells (moDC). Here, we report that following differentiation of human peripheral-blood monocytes into moDCs with granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and IL-4, interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) induces moDC maturation and up-regulates the co-stimulatory markers CD80, CD86, CD95, and MHC Class I, enabling moDCs to effectively generate antigen-specific CD4+ and CD8+ T cell responses for multiple viral and tumor antigens. Interestingly, early exposure of monocytes to high concentrations of IFN-gamma promotes monocyte differentiation into macrophages, despite the presence of GM-CSF and IL-4. However, under low concentrations of IFN-gamma, monocytes continue to differentiate into dendritic cells possessing a unique gene-expression profile, resulting in impairments in subsequent maturation by IFN-gamma and an inability to generate effective antigen-specific CD4+ and CD8+ T cell responses compared to standard moDCs. Monocytes differentiated in the presence of low levels of IFN-gamma downregulate IFN-gamma receptor expression, impairing their response to an inflammatory rechallenge. These findings demonstrate the ability of IFN-gamma to impart differential programs on human moDCs which shape the antigen-specific T cell responses they induce. Timing and intensity of exposure to IFN-gamma can thus determine whether moDCs are tolerogenic or immunostimulating. Human monocyte-derived dendritic cells from 4 healthy donors were differentiated with either GM-CSF and IL-4 (n=4) or GM-CSF, IL-4, and IFN-gamma (n=4). These samples were subsequently hybridized to arrays as 4 biological repeats for each of the two treatment conditions.
