MiRNA expression in Th17 cells after AhR activation

ABSTRACT: Th17 cells play a major role in the pathogenesis of Rheumatoid Arthritis, and it is well known the involvement of the Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor (AhR) during the differentiation and activation of these cells. Due to its function as a transcription factor, we tested wether AhR would mediate part of its function in Th17 cells through the transcription of microRNAs (miRNAs). Therefore, we first perform a microarray experiment to identify the miRNAs induced after AhR activation in Th17 cells. Under a supervised hierarchical clustering, we identify 224 miRNAs differentially expressed (fold-change ³ 2.0 and FDR < 5%). Among them, 22 miRNAs were up regulated exclusively in Th17 cells in the presence of FICZ.

G-Protein-Coupled Receptor 68 Negatively Regulates IL-22 Production in Human Th17 Cells

Project description:Purpose: To identify novel genes regulated by the aryl hydrocarbon receptor that influence human Th17 cell function. Methods: Naïve CD4 T cells from peripheral blood of six healthy human volunteers were cultured under four experimental conditions for three days: anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 antibodies (Media control), Media with Th17 conditions (IL-6, TGF-b, IL-1b, IL-23), Th17+FICZ and Th17+CH223191. Total RNA was extracted from each sample on day 3 and sequenced in a paired-end 2x50bp strategy on an Illumina HiSeq1500. A total of six donors were analyzed. Results: AhR activation with FICZ suppressed IL-17 production from human CD4 T cells and increased IL-22. AhR inhibition with CH223191 potently suppressed IL-22 and modestly increased IL-17 production. On day 3, the number of significantly regulated genes for each treatment were 975 (Th17), 88 (Th17+FICZ) and 142 (Th17+CH223191). 11 common genes were significantly regulated by all three treatments. One of these, GPR68, was investigated further in functional studies since its expression correlated with IL-22 production. Activation of GPR68 with a positive allosteric modulator suppressed IL-22 concentrations in human Th17 cell cultures. Conclusions: Our study demonstrates that GPR68 activation can negatively regulate IL-22 production from human CD4 T cells in the presence of an AhR agonist. RNA-seq is a powerful method to identify novel gene targets that regulate cytokines involved in chronic inflammatory diseases.

Indoles (I3C and DIM)-mediated regulation of microRNAs in DTH model

Project description:Our laboratory observed that indoles (I3C and DIM) suppressed the development of delayed type hypersensitivity (DTH) in mice. Also, we observed differential regulation of regulatory T cells (Tregs) and Th17 cells in mice treated with I3C or DIM. The aim of this experiment was, therefore, to understand the role of I3C or DIM in the regulation of microRNAs (miRs) in immune cells and generation of Tregs and Th17 cells. We also used FICZ, an aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) ligand to understand the role of various ligands in the regulation of Tregs and Th17 cells. To this end, we used draining (inguinal) lymph nodes (LNs) of mice (C57BL/6) with DTH and treated with Vehicle (corn oil, VEH) or I3C or DIM or FICZ. In brief, total RNA including miRs from inguinal LNs were isolated using miRNeasy kit and the protocol of the company was followed (QIAGEN, Valencia, CA). Next, miR arrays were performed at Johns Hopkins University Microarray and Sequencing Core facility using platform.

Transcription profiling of a frog cell line in response to the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) ligands FICZ and TCDD

Project description:The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) mediates the toxic effects of environmental contaminants, such as 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD). Frogs are very insensitive to the toxic effects of TCDD. Experiment Overall Design: XLK-WG cells (ATCC) were grown to ~90% confluence in RPMI-1640 media supplemented with 20% FBS at 29 degrees and 5% CO2. Cells were subsequently exposed to 100 nM TCDD, FICZ, or DMSO vehicle (0.25%) for 3 hr prior to extraction of total RNA. Experiment Overall Design: Study included three complete biological replicates of each treatment.

Tryptamine Serves As a Proligand of the AhR Transcriptional Pathway, and the Activation Is Dependent of Monoamine Oxidases

Project description:In this study we show that physiological concentrations of tryptamine (TA) lead to induction of cytochrome P4501A1 transcription through an AhR-dependent mechanism. In addition, we show that activation of the AhR by TA requires a functional monoamino oxidase system, suggesting that TA acts as an AhR proligand possibly by converting to a high-affinity AhR ligand. RNA seq was performed from Hepa cells treated with FICZ or TA by SciLifelabs.

AhR interactome in early embryonic development

Project description:The transcriptional program of early embryonic development is tightly regulated by a set of well-defined transcription factors that suppress premature expression of differentiation genes and sustain the pluripotent identity. It is generally accepted that this program can be perturbed by environmental factors such as chemical pollutants, however the precise molecular mechanisms remain unknown. The Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor (AHR) is a widely expressed nuclear receptor that senses environmental stimuli and modulates target gene expression. Here, we show that ectopic activation of AHR during early differentiation disrupts the differentiation program via the chromatin remodeling complex NuRD. The activated AHR/NuRD complex altered the expression of differentiation-specific genes that control the first two developmental decisions without affecting the pluripotency program. These findings identify a novel mechanism that allows environmental stimuli to disrupt embryonic development through AHR signaling.

Hexokinase 2 is a transcriptional targetHexokinase 2 is a transcriptional target and a positive modulator of AHR signalling and a positive modulator of AHR signalling

Project description:The Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor (AHR) regulates the expression of numerous genes in response to activation by agonists including xenobiotics. Although it is well appreciated that environmental signals and cell intrinsic features may modulate this transcriptional response, how it is mechanistically achieved remains poorly understood. We show that Hexokinase 2 (HK2) a metabolic enzyme fuelling cancer cell growth, is a transcriptional target of AHR as well as a modulator of its activity. Expression of HK2 is positively regulated by AHR upon exposure to agonists both in human cells and in mice lung tissues. Conversely, over-expression of HK2 regulates the abundance of many proteins involved in the regulation of AHR signalling and these changes are linked with altered AHR expression levels and transcriptional activity. HK2 expression also shows a negative correlation with AHR promoter methylation in tumours, and these tumours with high HK2 expression and low AHR methylation are associated with a worse overall survival in patients. In sum, our study provides novel insights into how AHR signalling is regulated which may help our understanding of the context-specific effects of this pathway and may have implications in cancer.

Proteome and Phosphoproteome of AhR-dependent non-genomic signaling in endotoxin-activated macrophages

Project description:Emerging studies revealed an immunomodulatory role of the Aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR), a receptor sensing environmental contaminants, and involved in their detoxification. Besides its function as a transcription factor, AhR can participate in non-genomic signaling through ubiquitination and phosphorylation-dependent processes. In this study, a multi-PTM-omics approach, including proteome, ubiquitome, and phosphoproteome, was utilized to examine mechanisms of non-genomic AhR-signaling in endotoxin-activated monocyte-derived macrophages. This dataset entails proteome and phosphoproteome data.
