Project description:Homeobox genes encode transcription factors regulating basic processes in cell differentiation during embryogenesis and in the adult. Recently, we have reported the NKL-code which describes physiological expression patterns of nine NKL homeobox genes in early hematopoiesis and in lymphopoiesis including main stages of T-, B- and NK-cell development. Aberrant activity of NKL homeobox genes is involved in the generation of hematological malignancies including T-cell leukemia. Here, we searched for deregulated NKL homeobox genes in main entities of T-cell lymphomas comprising peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL), angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL), anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL), adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATLL), hepatospleenic T-cell lymphoma (HSTL), and NK/T-cell lymphoma (NKTL). Our data revealed in all types altogether 19 aberrantly overexpressed genes, demonstrating that deregulated NKL homeobox genes play a significant role in T-cell lymphomas as well. For detailed analyses we focused on NKL homeobox gene MSX1 which is normally expressed in NK-cells and aberrantly activated in T-cell leukemia. This gene was overexpressed in subsets of HSTL patients and HSTL-derived sister cell lines DERL-2 and DERL-7 which served as models to identify mechanisms of deregulation. We performed genomic and expression profiling and whole genome sequencing and revealed mutated and deregulated gene candidates including the fusion gene CD53-PDGFRB exclusively expressed in DERL-2. Subsequent knockdown experiments allowed the construction of an aberrant network involved in MSX1 deregulation containing chromatin factors AUTS2 and H3B/H3.1, PDGF- and BMP-signalling pathways, and homeobox genes NKX2-2 and PITX1. The gene encoding AUTS2 is located at 7q11 and may represent a basic target of the HSTL hallmark aberration i(7q). Our data indicate both oncogenic and tumor suppressor functions of MSX1 in HSTL, reflecting its activity in early lineage differentiation of T- and NK-cells and the presence of NK-cell like characteristics in malignant HSTL cells. In this context, NKL homeobox gene MSX1 may represent a selective target in HSTL tumor evolution. Together, the data highlight an oncogenic role of deregulated NKL homeobox genes in T-cell lymphoma and identified MSX1 as a novel player in HSTL, involved in aberrant NK- and T-cell differentiation.

Project description:Large granular lymphocyte leukemia (LGLL) is a rare lymphoproliferative malignancy caused by clonal expansion of granular lymphocytes. Two subgroups, (cytotoxic) T-cell LGLL and natural killer (NK) cell LGLL, are defined based on their cellular origin and expression of characteristic surface molecules. In this study, we performed a comparative proteome profiling of isolated extracellular vesicles (EV) from the T-LGLL cell line MOTN-1 and the NK-LGLL line NKL.

Project description:NKL homeobox genes encode basic transcriptional regulators of cell and tissue differentiation. Recently, we described a hematopoietic NKL-code comprising particular NKL homeobox genes expressed in normal hematopoietic stem cells and during lymphopoiesis, highlighting their physiological role in the development of T-, B- and NK-cells. Here, we describe aberrant expression of the neural non-hematopoietic NKL homeobox gene NKX2-2 in 10% of both classical Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) and nodular lymphocyte predominant (NLP) HL patients. NKX2-2 expressing NLPHL cell line DEV served as a model by analysing chromosomal configurations and expression profiling data to reveal activating mechanisms and downstream targets of this developmental regulator. While excluding chromosomal rearrangements at the locus of NKX2-2, we identified t(3;14)(p21;q34) resulting in overexpression of the IL17 receptor gene IL17RB via juxtaposition to the IGH-locus. SiRNA-mediated knockdown experiments demonstrated that IL17RB activated NKX2-2 transcription. Overexpression of IL17RB-cofactor DAZAP2 via chromosomal gain of 12q13 and deletion of its proteasomal inhibitor SMURF2 at 17q24 supported expression of NKX2-2. IL17RB activated transcription factors FLI1 and FOXG1 which in turn mediated NKX2-2 expression. In addition, overexpressed chromatin-modulator AUTS2 contributed to NKX2-2 activation as well. NKX2-2 inhibited transcription of lymphoid NKL homeobox gene MSX1 and activated expression of basic helix-loop-helix factor NEUROD1 which may disturb B-cell differentiation processes via reported interaction with TCF3/E2A. Taken together, our data reveal in HL ectopic activation of a neural gene network showing NKX2-2 at a central position, highlighting oncogenic impacts of NKL homeobox genes in B-cell malignancies.

Project description:Recently, we have reported a hematopoietic NKL-code which describes normal expression patterns of NKL homeobox genes in early hematopoiesis and lymphopoiesis including T-cell, B-cell and NK-cell development. This code allows the identification of deregulated NKL homeobox genes in lymphoid malignancies. Here, we report normal activities of NKL homeobox genes in myelopoiesis, thus, extending the NKL-code for the hematopoietic system. Analysis of public expression profiling data for developing and mature granulocytes, mast cells, monocytes, macrophages, megakaryocytes and erythrocytes revealed seven active myeloid NKL homeobox genes including DLX2, HHEX, HLX, HMX1, NANOG, NKX3-1 and VENTX. Furthermore, we analyzed public expression profiling data of 251 acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients identifying 18 deregulated genes. These results indicated that NKL homeobox genes are frequently deregulated in this myeloid malignancy. For detailed analysis we focused on NKL homeobox gene NANOG which acts as stem cell factor and was accordingly expressed just in hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells. We detected aberrant NANOG expression in a small subset of AML patients and in AML cell line NOMO-1 which served as model to investigate upstream and downstream factors of this gene. Karyotyping and genomic profiling excluded rearrangements of the NANOG locus at 12p13. Analysis of NOMO-1 cells treated for NANOG knockdown, expression profiling analyses of HL-60 cells lentivirally transfected for NANOG overexpression, and of public AML patient data revealed regulators and target genes of NANOG. NKL homeobox genes HHEX and MSX1 and the NOTCH-pathway were located upstream of NANOG and HHEX, HLX, VENTX, MYB, CDK6, MAML2 and MIR17HG represented target genes of NANOG in the myeloid context. In conclusion, we described a myeloid NKL-code and several deregulated NKL homeobox genes in AML. We identified for NKL homeobox gene NANOG deregulating factors and downstream activities in AML. These data indicate a common oncogenic role of NKL homeobox genes in myeloid malignancies.

Project description:NK cells are an essential component for the control of influenza infection, acting to both clear virus-infected cells and release antiviral cytokines. Engagement of the NK cell CD16-receptor by antibody-coated influenza-infected cells results in antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC). Though NK cell-mediated ADCC is an important mechanism to control influenza, influenza infection itself may act to enhance the potency of NK cell ADCC. To understand if virus-infected cells increase NK cell activation, we co-cultured human PBMCs with influenza-infected human alveolar epithelial (A549) cells and evaluated the capacity of NK cells to mediate ADCC. Pre-incubation of PBMCs with influenza-infected target cells markedly enhanced the functionality of NK cells by ADCC antibodies in response to HA immune-complexes containing intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG), allogenic target cells, with and without rituximab. Trans-well and supernatant transfer experiments showed that virus released into the supernatant is responsible for the enhanced functionality of NK cells, which is apparent at both the protein and RNA transcriptomic levels. Furthermore, cytokine multiplex data, RNA sequencing and cytokine blocking/supplementation experiments showed Type I interferons released from PBMCs were the primary mechanism of the influenza-induced increased NK cell functionality and ADCC potency. Importantly, the influenza infection-mediated increase in NK cell mediated anti-influenza ADCC was mimicked by the type I interferon agonist Poly-IC. This suggests a potential mechanism for enhancing monoclonal antibody therapies for influenza. We conclude that influenza-infection induced secretion of type I interferons enhances the ADCC capacity of NK cells and this pathway may potentially be manipulated to improve anti-influenza therapies.

Project description:The fully human monoclonal antibody KMTR2 acts as a strong direct agonist for tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) receptor 2 (TRAIL-R2), which is capable of inducing apoptotic cell death without cross-linking. To investigate the mechanism of direct agonistic activity induced by KMTR2, the crystal structure of the extracellular region of TRAIL-R2 and a Fab fragment derived from KMTR2 (KMTR2-Fab) was determined to 2.1?Å resolution. Two KMTR2-Fabs assembled with the complementarity-determining region 2 of the light chain via two-fold crystallographic symmetry, suggesting that the KMTR2-Fab assembly tended to enhance TRAIL-R2 oligomerization. A single mutation at Asn53 to Arg located at the two-fold interface in the KMTR2 resulted in a loss of its apoptotic activity, although it retained its antigen-binding activity. These results indicate that the strong agonistic activity, such as apoptotic signaling and tumor regression, induced by KMTR2 is attributed to TRAIL-R2 superoligomerization induced by the interdimerization of KMTR2.

Project description:CD148 is a transmembrane protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) that is expressed in the renal vasculature, including the glomerulus. Previous studies have shown that CD148 plays a role in the negative regulation of growth factor signals (including epidermal growth factor and vascular endothelial growth factor), suppressing cell proliferation and transformation. However, the role of CD148 in kidney disease remains unknown. Here, we generated an agonistic anti-CD148 antibody and evaluated its effects in murine diabetic nephropathy (DN). Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against the mouse CD148 ectodomain sequence were generated by immunizing CD148 knockout (CD148KO) mice. The mAbs that increased CD148 activity were selected by biological (proliferation) and biochemical (PTP activity) assays. The mAb (18E1) that showed strong agonistic activity was injected (10 mg/kg ip) in streptozotocin-induced wild-type and CD148KO diabetic mice for 6 wk, and the renal phenotype was then assessed. The effects of 18E1 mAb in podocyte growth factor signals were also assessed in culture. Compared with control IgG, 18E1 mAb significantly decreased albuminuria and mesangial expansion without altering hyperglycemia and blood pressure in wild-type diabetic mice. Immunohistochemical evaluation showed that 18E1 mAb significantly prevented the reduction of podocyte number and nephrin expression and decreased glomerular fibronectin expression and renal macrophage infiltration. The 18E1 mAb showed no effects in CD148KO diabetic mice. Furthermore, we demonstrated that 18E1 mAb reduces podocyte epidermal growth factor receptor signals in culture and in diabetic mice. These findings suggest that agonistic anti-CD148 mAb attenuates DN in mice, in part by reducing epidermal growth factor receptor signals in podocytes. This antibody may be used for the treatment of early DN.
