Angiogenic Transformation in Human Brain Micro Endothelial Cells: Whole Genome DNA Methylation and Transcriptomic Analysis

ABSTRACT: We tested the hypothesis that endothelial capillary tube formation in 3D cultures in basement membrane extract (BME) is secondary to the altered DNA promoter methylation and mRNA expression in Human Brain Micro Endothelial Cells (HBMEC). We conducted a whole-genome transcriptomic and methylation microarray and CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene knockdown to test our hypothesis. The data demonstrated that with angiogenic transformation 1318 and 1490 genes were significantly (p<0.05) upregulated and downregulated, respectively. We compared our gene expression data with the published databases on GEO and found several genes in common. PTGS2, SELE, ID2, HSPA6, DLX2, HEY2, FOSB, SMAD6, SMAD7, and SMAD9 showed a very high level of expression during capillary tube formation. Among downregulated gene were ITGB4, TNNT1, PRSS35, TXNIP, IGFBP5. The most affected canonical pathways were ATM signaling and cell cycle G2/M DNA damage checkpoint regulation. The top upstream regulators of angiogenic transformation were identified to be VEGF, TP53, HGF, ESR1, and CDKN1A. We compared the changes in gene expression with the change in gene methylation and found hypomethylation of the CpG sites was associated with upregulation of 515 genes and hypermethylation was associated with the downregulation of 31 genes. Furthermore, the silencing of FOSB, FZD7, HEY2, HSPA6, NR4A3, SELE, PTGS2, SMAD6, SMAD7, and SMAD9 significantly inhibited angiogenic transformation as well as cell migration of HBMECs. We conclude that the angiogenic transformation is associated with altered DNA methylation and gene expression changes.

Transcriptome analysis of the role of SMAD6 in mediating endothelial cell response to laminar shear stress by high throughput RNA sequencing

Project description:Laminar shear stress regulates blood vessel morphogenesis and subsequent quiescence, but how endothelial cells (EC) enact and maintain the vascular homeostasis required in most vessels for proper vessel function is poorly understood. SMAD6, a scaffold for several signaling pathways, is expressed in developing arteries and its expression is flow-regulated. We found that SMAD6 is essential for endothelial cell flow-mediated responses, and that it functions downstream of the mechanosensor Notch1. Endothelial cells with reduced SMAD6 levels failed to align under stable laminar shear flow that promotes vascular homeostasis, while forced SMAD6 expression rescued misalignment induced by reduced Notch1 signaling. SMAD6-dependent homeostatic laminar flow required the Notch ligand Dll4 and Notch transcriptional activity. Mechanistically, neither the N-terminal nor the C-terminal domain of SMAD6 alone rescued flow alignment upon loss of Notch signaling. Endothelial cells with reduced Smad6 levels has compromised barrier function, and RNA profiling revealed upregulation of proliferation-associated genes and down regulation of junction-associated genes. Among junction-related genes affected by SMAD6 levels, the proto-cadherin PCDH12 was upregulated by homeostatic flow and required for proper flow-mediated endothelial cell alignment. Thus, SMAD6 is a critical integrator of flow-mediated signaling inputs downstream of Notch1, as vessels transition from an angiogenic to a homeostatic phenotype.

Differential gene expression analysis of PTGS2-inducing and PTGS2-non-inducing oropharyngeal carcinoma cell lines.

Project description:Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) is a powerful immunomodulator synthesized by the COX2 enzyme, coded by human gene PTGS2. PGE2 is known to possess angiogenic, protumor and immunosuppressive functionality in the microenviornment of oropharyngeal carcinomas (OPC). Differential induction of PTGS2 in infiltrating myeloid-derived immunocytes has been observed with media conditioned by cultured OPC biopsies and OPC-derived cell lines alike. To identify PTGS2-inducing, OPC-derived gene products, we utilized bluk RNA sequencing on 4 OPC-derived cell lines to compare expression profiles of PTGS2-inducing (SCC154, SCC25) with that of PTGS2-non-inducing (2A3, SCC152) cell lines. Interleukin-1α (IL-1α) was among the differentially expressed candidates between cell lines.

HSPA6 is an ulcerative colitis susceptibility factor that is induced by cigarette smoke and protects intestinal epithelial cells by stabilizing anti-apoptotic Bcl-XL

Project description:Objective: Cigarette smoking ameliorates ulcerative colitis (UC) and aggravates Crohn’s disease (CD). Cigarette smoke suppresses inflammation-induced apoptosis in intestinal epithelial cells (DLD-1), which may explain its protective effect in UC. Here, we performed transcriptome profiling of cigarette smoke extract (CSE)-exposed DLD-1 and Jurkat cells (T-lymphocytes) and related this to UC susceptibility genes with protective functions in the intestinal epithelium. Design: CSE-regulated genes in DLD-1 and Jurkat cells were identified by Illumina microarrays and compared to genes in UC susceptibility loci. Colon biopsies were analyzed by immunohistochemistry for cell-specific expression of HSPA6. CSE-induced gene expression was analyzed by Q-PCR, Western blotting and immunofluorescence microscopy. Protein (HSPA6/Bcl-XL) interactions were analyzed by immunoprecipitation. Results: CSE changed the expression of 536 and 2,560 genes in DLD-1 and Jurkat cells, respectively. The “response to unfolded protein” was one of the most significantly affected gene sets with prominent induction (20.3-fold) of heat shock protein A6 (HSPA6). Six CSE-induced genes in DLD-1 cells were located in UC-susceptibility loci, including HSPA6 (rs1801274). HSPA6 is highly expressed in the human colonic epithelium. CSE caused a dose-dependent strong (>100-fold at 30% CSE for 6 hours), but transient induction of HSPA6 mRNA and protein in DLD-1 cells. HSPA6 co-immune precipitated with anti-apoptotic Bcl-XL, protein levels of which were increased while mRNA levels were unchanged. Conclusion: HSPA6 is a cigarette smoke-induced UC-susceptibility gene. The HSPA6 risk locus is associated with decreased HSPA6 expression. HSPA6 provides epithelial protection by stabilizing anti-apoptotic Bcl-XL, thereby contributing to the beneficial effect of cigarette smoking in UC.

Global Differential Gene Expression Analysis of Spontaneous Lung Tumors in B6C3F1 Mice: Comparison to Human Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

Project description:Introduction: Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death in people. There are several chemically induced and genetically modified mouse models used to study lung cancer. We hypothesized that spontaneous murine (B6C3F1) lung tumors can serve as a model to study human non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods: RNA was extracted from untreated 2-year-old B6C3F1 mouse spontaneous lung (SL) tumors and age-matched normal lung tissue from a chronic inhalation NTP study. Global gene expression analysis was performed using Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 GeneChip® arrays. After data normalization, for each probe set, pairwise comparisons between groups were made using a bootstrap t-test while controlling the mixed directional false discovery rate (mdFDR) to generate a differential gene expression list. IPA, KEGG, and EASE software tools were used to evaluate the overrepresented cancer genes and pathways. Results: MAPK and TGF-beta pathways were overrepresented within the dataset. Almost all of the validated genes by quantitative real time RT-PCR had comparable directional fold changes with the microarray data. The candidate oncogenes included Kras, Braf, Raf1, Id2, Hmga1, Cks1b, and Foxf1. The candidate tumor suppressor genes included Rb1, Cdkn2a, Hnf4a, Tcf21, Ptprd, Hpgd, Hopx, Ogn, Id4, Hoxa5, Smad6, Smad7, Zbtb16, Cyr61, Dusp4, and Ifi16. In addition, several genes important in lung development were also differentially expressed, such as Smad6, Hopx, Sox4, Sox9 and Mycn. Conclusion: In this study, we have demonstrated that several cancer genes and signaling pathways relevant for human NSCLC were similarly altered in spontaneous murine lung tumors. Six spontaneous lung tumors and six normal lungs (as controls) from 2-year-old B6C3F1 mice.

Gonadotropin surge-induced expression of progesterone receptor serves the ovary as a trigger of ovulation and a terminator of ovulatory inflammation

Project description:Ovulation is triggered by the gonadotropin surge that induces the expression of two key genes, progesterone receptor (Pgr) and prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2 (Ptgs2) in the granulosa cells of preovulatory follicles. Their gene products PGR and PTGS2 activate two separate pathways that are both essential for successful ovulation. Here we show that the PGR plays an additional essential role; attenuate ovulatory inflammation by diminishing the gonadotropin surge-induced Ptgs2 expression. PGR indirectly terminates Ptgs2 expression and PGE2 synthesis in granulosa cells by inhibiting the NF-κB, a transcription factor required for Ptgs2 expression. When the expression of PGR was ablated in the granulosa cells, the ovary undergoes hyperinflammatory condition manifested by excessive PGE2 synthesis, immune cell infiltration, oxidative damage, and neoplastic transformation of ovarian cells. Despite the ovary undergoes ovulations dozens or hundreds of times in one’s lifetime, the repetitive ovulatory inflammations do not leave significant tissue damage in the ovary. The PGR-driven termination of PTGS2 expression may protect ovary from the ovulatory inflammation.

Identification of COX-2 as a major actor of transcriptomic adaptation of endothelial and tumor cells to cyclic hypoxia

Project description:Tumor hypoxia is not a stable phenomenon but cycles between periods of deep hypoxia and reoxygenation. Cyclic hypoxia originates from heterogeneities in red blood cell flux and from the permanent remodelling of the angiogenic vascular network. Endothelial cells lining tumor blood vessels are therefore also influenced by cyclic hypoxia. The gene expression pattern promoted by cyclic hypoxia differs from those observed under normoxia and even continuous hypoxia. PTGS2 is one gene exquisitely up-regulated in endothelial cells (and tumor cells) in response to cyclic hypoxia. Elevated COX-2 (the PTGS2 gene product) expression and activity account for cyclic hypoxia-driven increase in endothelial cell survival and angiogenesis.

Negative feedback of IFN-I signaling through IFN-competent RIG-I-like receptor-induced HSPA6

Project description:The RIG-I-like receptors (RLRs) form filaments to activate type-I interferon (IFN-I) and NF-KB signaling through their adaptor protein MAVS and downstream cascades. These filaments are recognized and regulated by cell-encoded machinery for correct activation. Here, we identified the stress-sensitive heat shock protein, HSPA6, was induced to express upon RLR-MAVS activation to act as a negative regulator of IFN-I signaling. Interestingly, by using MAVS-KO cells, we showed that HSPA6 was upregulated dependent on the presence of IFN-competent RLRs but not MAVS. Gene knockout (KO) tests indicated that the E3 ligases, stress granules (SGs), and transcription factors IRF1 and AP1 were all shared to induce HSPA6 and the canonical IFNb. Kinetic analysis showed that HSPA6 upregulated slower than IFNb, implicating these two genes competed machinery for transcription activation. Further tests suggested the induced HSPA6 bound to IFN-competent MDA5 to dissolve the filaments and downregulated IFN induction. Thus, our study uncovered a new gene activation mechanism by the IFN-competent RLRs to serve as negative feedback, arguing for a gene regulatory role of functional filaments of innate immunity.

IL22RA2 is a Smad7 target mediating alleviation of dermatitis and psoriatic phenotypes in mice

Project description:Long-term management of inflammatory skin diseases is challenging because of side effects from repeated use of systemic treatments or topical corticosteroids. This study sought to identify novel mechanisms and developmental therapeutics for these diseases using genetic models and pharmacological approaches. We found mice overexpressing Smad7 in keratinocytes, but not mice overexpressing the N-terminal domain of Smad7 (N-Smad7), were resistant to imiquimod (IMQ)-induced Th1/17 and Th2 type inflammation. We generated a truncated Smad7 protein encompassing C-terminal Smad7 and PY motif fused with cell-penetrating Tat peptide (Tat-PYC-Smad7). Topically applied Tat-PYC-Smad7 to inflamed skin entered cells upon contact and attenuated IMQ-, 2,4-dinitrofluorobenzene-induced atopic dermatitis (AD) and tape-stripping inflammation (TS). RNAseq analyses of mouse skin exposed to these insults identified that in addition to inhibiting TGFβ/NFκB, Smad7 blunted IL22/STAT3 activation and associated pathogenesis, which is due to Smad7 transcriptionally upregulating IL22 antagonist IL22RA2. Mechanistically, Smad7 facilitated nuclear translocation and DNA binding of C/EBPβ to IL22RA2 promoter for IL22RA2 transactivation. Consistent to the above observations in mice, transcript levels of IL22RA2 were increased in human atopic dermatitis and psoriasis lesions with clinical remission. Our study identified the anti-inflammation functional domain of Smad7 and suggests mechanism and feasibility for developing Smad7-based biologics as a topical therapy for skin inflammatory disorders.

Transcription Factor CHF1/Hey2 Regulates Specific Gene Sets in Serum Stimulated Primary Cardiac Myocytes

Project description:Background: We have previously found that overexpression of CHF1/Hey2 in the myocardium prevents the development of phenylephrine-induced hypertrophy and promotes physiological hypertrophy in an aortic banding model. To identify transcriptional pathways regulated by CHF1/Hey2 in hypertrophy, we cultured primary neonatal mouse cardiac myocytes from wild type and transgenic mice overexpressing CHF1/Hey2 and treated them with serum, a potent hypertrophic stimulus. We determined transcriptional profiles by hybridization to Affymetrix GeneChip® Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Arrays. We identified important biological processes regulated by CHF1/Hey2 by Gene Set Analysis using Biological Process Gene Sets from the Gene Ontology Consortium. Results: We found that overexpression of CHF1/Hey2 suppresses gene sets involved in water transport, regulation of adenylate cyclase activity, embryonic eye morphogenesis, gut development and fluid transport after serum stimulation. Genes involved in protein dephosphorylation, in contrast, demonstrate increased expression in myocytes overexpressing CHF1/Hey2, and this increase is independent of serum treatment. Genes overexpressed prior to serum treatment are involved in regulation of transcription factor activity, protein export from the nucleus, and steroid hormone receptor signaling. Genes overexpressed after serum treatment are involved in autophagy, apoptosis and mitochondrial biogenesis. Conclusions: CHF1/Hey2 suppresses fluid transport, activation of adenylate cyclase activity, promotes phosphatase activity, autophagy and regulates other important biological processes likely relevant to hypertrophy.
