The effects of metformin on the early LPS response of macrophages

ABSTRACT: Metformin is a front-line drug in the treatment of type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). In addition to its antigluconeogenic and insulin-sensitizing properties, it has emerged as a potent inhibitor of the inflammatory response of macrophages. Specifically, metformin has been shown to reduce transcript levels of Il1b, the gene encoding the pro-inflammatory cytokine interleukin (IL)-1b, during long-term exposure of macrophages to the bacterial cell-wall component lipopolysaccharide (LPS). However, the extent to which metformin affects the early transcriptional response to LPS has never been investigated. Here, we show that metformin affects transcript levels of a large yet selective subset of LPS-responsive genes after only two hours of LPS exposure, mostly counteracting the effect of LPS rather than enhancing it. The affected genes are implicated in a variety of biological functions, in particular cellular movement and trafficking. Intriguingly, metformin affects transcript levels of Il1b at this early time point as well, but through a molecular mechanism fundamentally different from the regulation observed after longer exposure. While down-regulation of Il1b by metformin during the late stages of the LPS response has been shown to rely on stabilization of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1α and production of IL-10, Il1b inhibition at the early stage requires AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activation but is independent of HIF-1α and IL-10. These results reveal an unexpected complexity in the anti-inflammatory properties of metformin and demonstrate that Il1b is down-regulated by distinct mechanisms in the early and late stages of the LPS response.

Oxidized LDL accumulation suppresses glycolysis and attenuates the macrophage inflammatory response by diverting transcription from the HIF-1α to the Nrf2 pathway

Project description:Lipid accumulation in macrophages (Mφs) is a hallmark of atherosclerosis, yet how lipid accumulation affects inflammatory responses through rewiring of Mφ metabolism is poorly understood. We modeled lipid accumulation in cultured wild type mouse thioglycolate-elicited peritoneal Mφs and bone marrow-derived Mφs with conditional (Lys2-Cre) or complete genetic deficiency of Vhl, Hif1a, Nos2 and Nfe2l2. Transfection studies employed RAW264.7 cells. Mφs were cultured for 24 hours with oxidized LDL (oxLDL) or cholesterol and then were stimulated with LPS. Transcriptomics revealed that oxLDL accumulation in Mφs down-regulated inflammatory, hypoxia and cholesterol metabolism pathways, while antioxidant pathway, fatty acid oxidation and ABC family proteins were up-regulated. Metabolomics and extracellular metabolic flux assays showed that oxLDL accumulation suppressed LPS-induced glycolysis. Intracellular lipid accumulation in Mφs impaired LPS-induced inflammation by reducing both HIF-1α stability and transactivation capacity; thus, the phenotype was not rescued in Vhl-/- Mφs. Intracellular lipid accumulation in Mφs also enhanced LPS-induced Nrf2-mediated antioxidative defense that destabilizes HIF-1α, and Nrf2-deficient Mφs resisted the inhibitory effects of lipid accumulation on glycolysis and inflammatory gene expression. Furthermore, oxLDL shifted NADPH consumption from HIF-1α- to Nrf2-regulated apoenzymes. Thus, we postulate that repurposing NADPH consumption from HIF-1α to Nrf2 transcriptional pathways is critical in modulating inflammatory responses in Mφs with accumulated intracellular lipid. The relevance of our in vitro models was established by comparative transcriptomic analyses, which revealed that Mφs cultured with oxLDL and stimulated with LPS shared similar inflammatory and metabolic profiles with foamy Mφs derived from the atherosclerotic mouse and human aorta.

Transcription profiling of human U251 cells treated with hypoxia inducible factor HIF-1I siRNA or a polyamide targeted against the hypoxia response element (HRE) after induction of hypoxia

Project description:Transcription mediated by hypoxia inducible factor (HIF-1) contributes to tumor angiogenesis and metastasis but is also involved in the activation of cell-death pathways and normal physiological processes. Given the complexity of HIF-1 signaling it could be advantageous to target a subset of HIF-1 effectors rather than the entire pathway. We compared the genome-wide effects of three molecules that each interfere with the HIF-1-DNA interaction: a polyamide targeted to the hypoxia response element (HRE), siRNA targeted to HIF-1Î±, and echinomycin, a DNA binding natural product with a similar but less specific sequence preference to the polyamide. The polyamide affects a subset of hypoxia-induced genes that are consistent with the binding site preferences of the polyamide. For comparison, siRNA targeted to HIF-1α and echinomycin each affect the expression of nearly every gene induced by hypoxia. Remarkably, the total number of genes affected by either polyamide or HIF-1α siRNA over a range of thresholds is comparable. The data shows how polyamides can be used to affect a subset of a pathway regulated by a transcription factor. In addition, this study offers a unique comparison of three complementary approaches towards exogenous control of endogenous gene expression. Experiment Overall Design: Hypoxia-mimetic DFO (deferoxamine)-stimulated U251 cells that were treated with polyamide 1, HIF-1α siRNA, and echinomycin were compared to control cells that were also DFO-stimulated. Cells not stimulated with DFO were also compared to the DFO-stimulated controls. Three biological replicates were included for each treatment/condition.

HIF-1α and HIF-2α differently regulate tumour development, metabolism and inflammation of clear cell renal cell carcinoma in mice

Project description:Mutational inactivation of VHL is the earliest genetic event in the majority of ccRCCs, leading to activation of the HIF-1α and HIF-2α transcription factors. While correlative studies of human ccRCCs and functional studies using human ccRCC cell lines have implicated HIF-1α as an inhibitor and HIF-2α as a promoter of aggressive tumour behaviours, their roles in tumour onset have not been functionally addressed. Using an autochthonous ccRCC model, we show genetically that Hif1a is necessary for tumour formation whereas Hif2a deletion has only minor effects on tumour initiation and growth. Both HIF-1α and HIF-2α are necessary for the clear cell phenotype. Transcriptomic and proteomic analyses revealed that HIF-1α regulates glycolysis while HIF-2α regulates genes associated with lipoprotein metabolism, ribosome biogenesis and E2F and MYC transcriptional activities. Deficiency of HIF-2α increased CD8+ T cell infiltration and activation. These studies reveal different functions of HIF-1α and HIF-2α in ccRCC. SIGNIFICANCE The roles of HIF-1α and HIF-2α in ccRCC pathogenesis remain unclear. Using a mouse genetic approach we show that HIF-1α but not HIF-2α is important for tumour formation, contrary to predictions from studies of human ccRCC. We show that HIF-1α and HIF-2α transcriptionally regulate different aspects of metabolism and identify HIF-2α as a suppressor of immune cell infiltration and activation.

Mycobacterial tuberculosis infection in hypoxia-inducible factor-1alpha deficient macrophages

Project description:We herein found the strong expression of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) in tuberculosis granulomas and more rapid death of HIF-1α-conditional knockout mice than wild-type mice after M. tuberculosis infection. These results prompted us to investigate the role of HIF-1α in host defenses against infection. Bone-marrow derived macrophages from Wild-type (WT) mice and HIF-1α-conditional knockout (HIF-1 CKO) mice were infected with M tuberculosis H37Rv (multiplicity of infection = 0.5) for 12 h, and extracellular bacilli were removed from the macrophage culture medium. Cells were cultured for 4 days in the presence of 500 U/ml IFN-γ. In microarray analysis using Gene Chip Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Array, the expression of 757 and 1190 genes was ≥1.3-fold stronger and ≥0.77-fold weaker, respectively, in HIF-1 CKO than in WT.

Transcriptomic analysis of the HIF-1α impact on the gene expression profile of chicken fibroblasts under hypoxia

Project description:Hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) is a transcriptional regulator that mediates cellular adaptive responses to hypoxia. Hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) is involved in the development of ascites syndrome (AS) in broiler chickens. Therefore, studying the effect of HIF-1α on the cellular transcriptome under hypoxic conditions will help to better understand the mechanism of HIF-1α in the development of AS in broilers. In this study, we analyzed the gene expression profile of the DF-1 cell line under hypoxic conditions by RNA-seq. Additionally, we constructed the HIF-1α knockdown DF-1 cell line by using the RNAi method and analyzed the gene expression profile under hypoxic conditions. The results showed that exposure to hypoxia for 48 hours had a significant impact on the expression of genes in the DF-1 cell line, which related to cell proliferation, stress response, and apoptosis. In addition, after HIF-1α knockdown more differential expression genes appeared than in wild-type cells, and the expression of most hypoxia-related genes was either down-regulated or remained unchanged. Pathway analysis results showed that differentially expressed genes were mainly enriched in pathways related to cell proliferation, apoptosis, and oxidative phosphorylation. Our study obtained transcriptomic data from chicken fibroblasts at different hypoxic times and identified the potential regulatory network associated with HIF-1α. This data provides valuable support for understanding the transcriptional regulatory mechanism of HIF-1α in the development of AS in broilers.

Metronomic doxorubicin blocks HIF-1α-mediated responses in sarcomas and augments the effects of anti-VEGF-A therapy

Project description:Increased levels of hypoxia and hypoxia inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) in human sarcomas correlate with tumor progression and radiation resistance. Prolonged anti-angiogenic therapy of tumors can delay tumor growth but may also increase hypoxia and HIF-1α activity. In our recent clinical trial, treatment with the anti-vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A) antibody, bevacizumab, followed by a combination of bevacizumab and radiation led to near complete necrosis in nearly half of sarcomas. Gene set enrichment analysis of microarrays from pre-treatment biopsies found the Gene Ontology category “Response to hypoxia” was upregulated in poor responders, and hierarchical clustering based on 140 hypoxia-responsive genes separated poor responders from good responders. The most commonly used chemotherapeutic drug for sarcomas, doxorubicin (Dox), was recently found to block HIF-1α binding to DNA at low metronomic doses. We thus examined Dox treatment in 4 sarcoma cell lines, and found Dox at low concentrations (1-10 uM) blocked HIF-1α induction of VEGF-A by 84-97%, while inhibition of other HIF-1α-target genes including CA9, c-Met and FOXM1 was variable. HT1080 sarcoma xenografts had increased hypoxia and/or HIF-1α activity with increasing tumor size and with anti-VEGF receptor antibody (DC101) treatment. Combining DC101 and metronomic Dox had a synergistic effect in suppressing growth of HT1080 xenografts, primarily via induction of tumor endothelial cell apoptosis. In conclusion, sarcomas respond to increased hypoxia by expressing HIF-1α-target genes which may promote resistance to anti-angiogenic and other therapies. Metronomic Dox can block HIF-1α activation of target genes and works synergistically with anti-VEGF therapy to inhibit sarcomas. Pre-treatment biopsies were collected from 16 human sarcoma. The gene expression analysis was performed using Illumina platform.
