Gene expression of human primary macrophages induced by carbosilane dendrimer 2G-NN16 complexed with or without siRNA

ABSTRACT: Purpose: The use of dendrimers for biomedical applications has emerged with promising results. 2G-NN16 is a carbosilane dendrimer with sixteen positive charges per molecule tested to be capable to bind and release antisense oligonucleotides (ODNs) and small interference RNA (siRNA) in vitro. In spite of low cytotoxicity observed for these dendrimers, little is known about cellular changes they produce in cells in general and in immune cells in particular. Methods: Genomic technologies allow us to identify global gene expression profile changes in macrophages exposed to a non-toxic concentration (5µM) of 2G-NN16, alone or complexed with a random siRNA (dendriplex). Results were confirmed by quantitative real-time RT-PCR. Results: Exposing macrophages to this dendrimer or dendriplex causes multiple gene expression changes, but no specific action of random siRNA was detected. Pathway analysis of differentially expressed genes shows the altered functions to be immune response, proliferation and transcription regulation. Interleukin 17F (IL17F) was the most regulated gene. Conclusions: Global gene expression profiles are a highly sensitive method to measure the toxicity degree of a gene delivery vehicle. The strong repression of IL17F, IL23R and IL23A, all of them involved in autoimmune disease, by this particular dendrimer suggests a potential pharmacological application.

Effects of polyamidoamine dendrimer on neuronal differentiation from human neural progenitor cells using the neurosphere assay

Project description:Polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers have been investigated for the development of engineered nanomaterial drug delivery systems and other industrial uses. However, the major concern for their potential adverse effects on human neural progenitor cells remains unclear. In the present study, we employed human neural progenitor cells (hNPCs) to study the effects of G4-PAMAM dendrimers on neuronal differentiation. Neurospheres were treated with PAMAM dendrimer-NH2 (10 M-NM-<g/mL) for 72 h. Four neurospheres from the treatment and control groups were pooled together, and RNAs were isolated from each group.

Transcriptional responses to engineered nanoplatforms for drug delivery in primary human aortic endothelial cells.

Project description:This study evaluated transcriptional effects of nanomaterials that have been proposed for use as platforms for drug delivery. We tested SiO2 that had been surface modified to have a positive zetapotential of different geometries as well PAMAM dendrimers with different surface charges. We tested these materials on human aortic endothelial cells (HAECs) since we were interested in determining if there was a toxicogenomic response in endothelial cells that may come into contact with drug delivery nanoplatforms. The most pronounced transcriptional response resulted from the SiO2 treatement - the most prevelant responses were cell cycle, lipid metabolism and pro-inflammatory responses - with fewer responses from the PAMAM dendrimers. The lipid metabolism responses may relate to teh positive surface character as this response was not observed in the G3.5-COOH dendrimers. Indeed, the G3.5-COOH dendrimers were non-toxic and did not demonstrate any consistent transcriptional response. Primary human aortic endothial cells (HAECs) were grown in 6 well plates (in 2 ml of medium) until they were >80% confluent by visual inspection. Daily media changes allowed continued growth for HAECs that demonstrate contact inhibition. The cells were then incubated with nanomaterials: surface modified SiO2 with worm and sphere goemetries (the spheres were 200 nm in diameter and the worm's cylindrical diameter 200 nm and the length was ~ 1000 nm); and PAMAM dendrimers with different surface charges (G3.5-COOH are negative and G4-NH2 are positive). RNA was collected after 4 and 24 hrs (one SiO2 worm sample was at 1.5 hrs due to space available on the 4-pack microarrays). Triplicate biological samples (indicated by the 'a', 'b', and 'c' designations in the sample names) were evaluated for gene expression changes by microarray analysis.

Transcription profiling of human MCF-7 breast adenocarcinoma cells were treated with empty dendrimer control, E2, or Estrogen Dendrimer Conjugate (EDC) for 4 hours to investigate nuclear and extranuclear pathway inputs in the regulation of global gene expression by estrogen receptors

Project description:Whereas estrogens exert their effects by binding to nuclear estrogen receptors and directly altering target gene transcription, they can also initiate extranuclear signaling through activation of kinase cascades. We have investigated the impact of estrogen-mediated extranuclear initiated pathways on global gene expression by using estrpgen-dendrimer conjugates. Experiment Overall Design: MCF-7 human breast adenocarcinoma cells were treated with empty dendrimer control, E2, or Estrogen Dendrimer Conjugate (EDC) for 4 hours, and cDNA microarray analyses were carried out using Affymetrix HG-U133A GeneChips

Transcriptomic response of zebrafish embryos to Polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers

Project description:We are presenting here the application of toxicogenomics to perform the evaluation of toxic effects of two polyamidoamine dendrimers (Generation3 and Generation4) on the developing zebrafish embryo. They are nanomaterials of special concern under the toxicological point of view because of their relatively high solubility in water and bioavailability. Zebrafish embryo toxicity assays (zFET) showed that G3 was more toxic to zebrafish than G4, and that both compounds were several orders of magnitude more toxic than other carbonaceous nanomaterials, like carbon fullerenes or nanotubes. The results suggest a variety of MoA for different dendrimers, probably related to the nature and number of the chemical groups attached to their surface. They also confirm the relatively high bioavailability of these compounds, a key factor for the assessment of the risk associated to their use and release into the environment. About 5% genes were affected by the treatment. Gene ontology (GO) analyses show that these genes are involved in the oxidation-reduction process and also in the nervous system development. Representatives of each GO functional groups were selected and quantified by real-time PCR to validate the microarray data and to differentiate the action of generations of dendrimers studied. Two different treatments were performed in this study. Zebrafish fertlized eggs were exposed to PAMAM dendrimer G3 and G4 during 48h. 3 biological replicates per studied dendrimer are included such as each control sample.

Deficient Pink1 Retrograde Mitochondrial-Nrf2 Signaling Induces EMT That Is Mitigated By A Mitochondria-tropic ROS Reducing Dendrimer

Project description:Age-related macular degeneration (AMD), the leading cause of blindness among the elderly, is without effective treatment for early, dry disease. Retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cell degeneration is a cardinal feature of dry AMD. Given the reliance of photoreceptors on the RPE for maintaining health and vision, rejuvenating dysfunctional RPE is a logical treatment strategy. Here, the interplay between two cytoprotective pathways, Pink1 mediated mitophagy and the Nrf2 stress-response, was studied in human AMD tissue samples, RPE cells, and relevant mouse models. Pink1 immunolabeling was decreased in the RPE of early AMD eyes. The RPE from Pink1-/- mice and Pink1 deficient cultured human RPE cells displayed impaired mitophagy, decreased aerobic respiration, and increased mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, and coincidently, developed morphological, molecular, and functional features of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). This change was triggered by novel retrograde mitochondrial to nuclear signaling that was initiated by mitochondrial ROS, which activated Nrf2 to induce TXNRD1, PI3K/AKT, and canonical EMT transcription factors Zeb1 and Snail. Nrf2 signaling was pivotal since its deficiency prevented EMT and increased cell death. A dendrimer containing N-acetyl cysteine that is tropic for the RPE and contains the mitochondrial targeting ligand Triphenyl phosphinium abrogates EMT in human RPE cells in vitro and in Pink1-/- mice. This study describes a novel interdependency of mitophagy and the Nrf2 antioxidant response in determining cell fate and introduces an RPE and mitochondrial specific ROS reducing dendrimer that can rescue RPE cells in EMT, a change recognized in early AMD.

An environment with strong gravitational and magnetic field alterations synergizes to promote variations in Arabidopsis thaliana callus global transcriptional state

Project description:Using diamagnetic levitation, we have exposed A. thaliana in vitro callus cultures to five environments with different levels of effective gravity (from levitation i.e. simulated mg* to 2g*) and magnetic fields (10.1 to 16.5 Tesla) and we have compared the results with those of similar experiments done in a Random Position Machine (simulated micro g) and a Large Diameter Centrifuge (2g) free of high magnetic fields. Microarray analysis indicates that there are changes in overall gene expression of the cultured cells exposed to these unusual environments but also that gravitational and magnetic field produce synergic variations in the steady state of the transcriptional profile of A. thaliana. Significant changes in the expression of structural, abiotic stress and secondary metabolism genes were observed into the magnet field. These results confirm that the strong magnetic field, both at micro g* or 2g*, has a significant effect on the expression of these genes but subtle gravitational effects are still observable. These subtle responses to microgravity environments are opposite to the ones observed in a hypergravity one.
