Pathways involved in pony body size development

ABSTRACT: The mechanism of body growth in mammals is poorly understood. Here, we report the regulatory networks involved in body growth through analyzing transcriptomes of pituitary and epiphyseal tissues of Debao ponies and Mongolian horses at juvenile and adult stages. We found that GHR was expressed little in long bones though GH was highly expressed in Debao ponies compared with Mongolian horses. Moreover, m-RAS and ATF3, involved in the GHR pathway, were found to be significantly downregulated in juvenile ponies, which slowed the proliferation of bone osteocytes. However, WNT2 and PLCβ2 were obviously upregulated in juvenile Debao ponies, which led to premature mineralization of bone extracellular matrix. Furthermore, we found that the WNT/Ca2+ pathway may be responsible for the regulation of body growth. We then demonstrated that GHR was lacking in long bones of Debao ponies using RT-qPCR and Western blot. Treatment with WNT antagonist 1 decreased expression of the WNT pathway (P≤0.05) in vitro. The transduction of ATDC5 cells with GHR-RNAi lentivirus decreased expression of the GHR pathway (P≤0.05). Additionally, detection of plasma hormone concentrations showed that the ponies had higher levels of IGF-1 as juveniles and GH in adulthood than Mongolian horses, indicating that the hormone regulation in Debao ponies differs from that in Mongolian horses. Our work provides an insight into the genetic regulation for dwarf growth in mammals and a reference for therapeutic strategy for dwarfism

Molecular data integration reveals Growth Hormone Receptor as an alternative candidate oncogenic signaling pathway in glioblastoma

Project description:Our laboratory has identified the Growth Hormone Receptor (GHR) as a candidate oncogenic pathway involved in GBM oncogenicity. In order to study further the role of GHR in GBM, we have generated GHR overexpressing patient-derived cell lines (PDCL) from PDCL established by GlioTEx team (Institut du Cerveau et de la Moelle, Paris, France). An analysis of the global proteome of each variant was then undertaken. The wild-type (GHR WT) and constitutively activated (GHR CA) GHR expression vectors were generous gifts from Mike Waters and Peter Brooks (University of Queensland, Australia). The constitutively activated GHR vector was generated by fusing the transmembrane and cytoplasmic domains of rabbit GHR (to ensure the absence of human GH stimulation) to Jun zippers in order to achieve GH-independent forced dimerization in absence of the extracellular domain. The control GFP vector was obtained from Addgene . These vectors were then inserted in lentiviral vectors. Cells were transduced with multiplicity of infection of 20 and transduced cells were selected with puromycin.

GH directly inhibits steatosis and liver injury in a sex-dependent and IGF1-independent manner

Project description:A reduction in hepatocyte growth hormone (GH)-signaling promotes non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). However, debate remains as to the relative contribution of the direct effects of GH on hepatocyte function vs indirect effects, via alterations in insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1). To isolate the role of hepatocyte GH receptor (GHR) signaling, independent of changes in IGF1, mice with adult-onset, hepatocyte-specific GHR knockdown (aHepGHRkd) were treated with a vector expressing rat IGF1 targeted specifically to hepatocytes. Compared to GHR-intact mice, aHepGHRkd reduced circulating IGF1 and elevated GH. In male aHepGHRkd, the shift in IGF1/GH did not alter plasma glucose or non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA), but was associated with increased insulin, enhanced systemic lipid oxidation and reduced white adipose tissue (WAT) mass. Livers of male aHepGHRkd exhibited steatosis associated with increased de novo lipogenesis, hepatocyte ballooning and inflammation. In female aHepGHRkd, hepatic GHR protein levels were not detectable, but moderate levels of IGF1 were maintained, with minimal alterations in systemic metabolism and no evidence of steatosis. Reconstitution of hepatocyte IGF1 in male aHepGHRkd lowered GH and normalized insulin, whole body lipid utilization and WAT mass. However, IGF1 reconstitution did not reduce steatosis or eliminate liver injury. RNAseq analysis showed IGF1 reconstitution did not impact aHepGHRkd-induced changes in liver gene expression, despite changes in systemic metabolism. These results demonstrate the impact of aHepGHRkd is sexually dimorphic and the steatosis and liver injury observed in male aHepGHRkd mice is autonomous of IGF1, suggesting GH acts directly on the adult hepatocyte to control NAFLD progression.

Growth hormone resistance exacerbates cholestasis-induced murine liver fibrosis

Project description:Growth hormone (GH) resistance has been associated with liver cirrhosis in humans but its contribution to the disease remains controversial. In order to elucidate whether GH resistance plays a causal role in the establishment and development of liver fibrosis, or rather represents a major consequence thereof, we challenged mice lacking the Growth hormone receptor gene (Ghr-/-, a model for GH resistance) by crossing them with Mdr2 knockout mice (Mdr2-/-), a mouse model of inflammatory cholestasis and liver fibrosis. Ghr-/-;Mdr2-/- mice showed elevated serum markers associated with liver damage and cholestasis, extensive bile duct proliferation and increased collagen deposition relative to Mdr2 -/- mice, thus suggesting a more severe liver fibrosis phenotype. Additionally, Ghr-/-;Mdr2-/- mice had a pronounced down-regulation of hepato-protective genes Hnf6, Egfr and Igf-1, and significantly increased levels of ROS and apoptosis in hepatocytes, compared to control mice. Moreover, single knockout mice (Ghr-/-) fed with a diet containing 1% cholic acid displayed an increase in hepatocyte ROS production, hepatocyte apoptosis and bile infarcts compared to their wildtype littermates, indicating that loss of Ghr renders hepatocytes more susceptible to toxic bile acid accumulation. Surprisingly, and despite their severe fibrotic phenotype, Ghr-/-;Mdr2-/- mice displayed a significant decrease in tumour incidence compared to Mdr2-/- mice, indicating that loss of Ghr signaling may slow the progression from fibrosis/cirrhosis to cancer in the liver.

Proteomic changes of the liver in the absence of growth hormone (GH) actions

Project description:The liver is a central target organ of growth hormone (GH), which stimulates the synthesis of insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1) and affects multiple biochemical pathways. A systematic multi-omics analysis of GH actions in the liver has not been performed. GH receptor (GHR) deficiency is a unique model for studying consequences of lacking GH actions. In this study, we used molecular profiling techniques to capture a broad spectrum of these effects in the liver of a clinically relevant large animal model.

High-throughput mediation analysis of human proteome and metabolome identifies mediators of post-bariatric surgical diabetes control

Project description:To improve the power of mediation in high-throughput studies, here we introduce High-throughput mediation analysis (Hitman), which accounts for direction of mediation and applies empirical Bayesian linear modeling. We apply Hitman in a retrospective, exploratory analysis of the SLIMM-T2D clinical trial in which participants with type 2 diabetes were randomized to Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) or nonsurgical diabetes/weight management, and fasting plasma proteome and metabolome were assayed up to 3 years. RYGB caused greater improvement in HbA1c, which was mediated by growth hormone receptor (GHR). GHR’s mediation is more significant than clinical mediators, including BMI. GHR decreases at 3 months postoperatively alongside increased insulin-like growth factor binding proteins IGFBP1/BP2; plasma GH increased at 1 year. Experimental validation indicates (1) hepatic GHR expression decreases in post-bariatric rats; (2) GHR knockdown in primary hepatocytes decreases gluconeogenic gene expression and glucose production. Thus, RYGB may induce resistance to diabetogenic effects of GH signaling.

Transcriptomic analysis of liver in sex-linked Dwarf and wild type chickens

Project description:The sex-linked Dwarf (SLD) recessive mutation is characterized by a significant reduction of body size in hemizygous females (30%) and homozygous males (40%). The SLD chickens of the Leghorn line are affected by a Growth Hormone (GH) resistance condition due to a missense mutation at the Growth Hormone Receptor (GHR) gene causing a loss of function of the GHR. The sex-linked recessive dwarf mutation has large commercial use in maternal lines of the broiler poultry industry since these hens require less food and less housing space. The SLD chickens are also an interesting model for investigating complex traits such as energy expenditure and heat resistance for which the SLD chickens differ compared to normal size ones. In this study we performed a whole genome microarray expression profiling of liver using a 8x60K custom Agilent microarray. In total we analyzed 24 SLD and 24 wild type birds of 12 weeks of age obtained by crossing a heterozygous “dw” Leghorn cock with 12 females of an inbred Leghorn line to obtain wild type and dwarf sib and half-sib hens. The aim of the study was the fine identification of GH-inducible genes, and the characterization of the GH dependent signalling pathways.

Whole genome microarray analysis of growth hormone induced genes in bone

Project description:Growth hormone (GH) is important in the development and maintenance of bone; however the IGF-dependent and -independent molecular pathways involved remain to be established. We used microarray analysis to identify genes acutely regulated by GH, in the bones of four week old GH-deficient mice at 6 or 24 hours following a single injection of GH (4 mg/kg body wt) or PBS (n = 6/group). 6,160 genes were differentially expressed at P = 0.05 and 17% of these genes were identified at both time points. Several of the 201 genes that were up or down regulated at > 2 fold at 6 and/or 24 hours (P = 0.01) were expressed sequence tags, transcription factors, or signaling genes. In conclusion, GH caused acute changes in several novel genes, suggesting that many GH-induced signaling pathways and target genes remain to be discovered Keywords: GH injection induced gene expression, time course

Domestication and growth hormone transgenesis cause similar changes in gene expression profiles in coho salmon

Project description:By directly comparing gene expression in wild type, domestic, and GH transgenic strains of salmon, we have found that domestication and GH transgenesis are modifying similar genetic pathways. Genes in many different physiological pathways show modified expression in domestic and GH transgenic strains relative to wild-type, but effects are strongly correlated. Genes specifically involved in growth regulation (IGF-I, GHR, IGF-II, THR) are also concordantly regulated in domestic and transgenic fish, and both strains show elevated levels of circulating IGF-I. Muscle expression of GH in nontransgenic strains was found to be elevated in domesticated fish relative to wild type, providing a possible mechanism for growth enhancement. These data have implications for genetic improvement of existing domesticated species as well as regulation of emerging transgenic strains. Keywords: Expression profiling by array Microarray analyses were performed on four or five individual fish per group of wild type, domesticated, and GH transgenic salmon hybridized (one slide per individual) against a common wild-type RNA pool.
