Project description:Cholera toxin (CT) is the etiological agent of cholera. Here we report that multiple classes of fucosylated glycoconjugates function in CT binding and intoxication of intestinal epithelial cells. In Colo205 cells, knockout of B3GNT5, the enzyme required for synthesis of lacto- and neolacto-series glycosphingolipids (GSLs), reduces CT binding but sensitizes cells to intoxication. Overexpressing B3GNT5 to generate more fucosylated GSLs confers protection against intoxication, indicating that fucosylated GSLs act as decoy receptors for CT. Knockout (KO) of B3GALT5 causes increased production of fucosylated O-linked and N-linked glycoproteins, and leads to increased CT binding and intoxication. Knockout of B3GNT5 in B3GALT5 KO cells eliminates production of fucosylated GSLs but increases intoxication, identifying fucosylated glycoproteins as functional receptors for CT. These findings provide insight into molecular determinants regulating CT sensitivity of host cells.

Project description:Oxidative stress is pathogenic in neurological diseases including stroke. The identity of oxidative stress-inducible transcription factors and their role(s) in propagating the death cascade are poorly understood. Microarray analysis of neurons undergoing oxidative stress showed significant induction of prodeath genes. These genes have been shown to be regulated by the bZip transcription factor, ATF4. ATF4 protein localized to the promoter of a putative death gene in neurons in vitro and in vivo. Germline deletion of ATF4 in neurons resulted in a reduction in oxidative stress-induced gene expression and resistance to oxidative death. ATF4 knockout mice experienced significantly smaller infarcts and improved behavioral recovery as compared to wild-type mice subjected to the same reductions in blood flow in a rodent model of stroke. ATF4 modulates an early, upstream event in the death pathway, as resistance to oxidative death by ATF4 deletion was associated with decreased consumption of the antioxidant glutathione. Restoration of ATF4 protein in knockout neurons was sufficient to restore sensitivity to oxidative death and to reaccelerate loss of glutathione. Together, these findings establish ATF4 as a redox-regulated, pro-death transcriptional activator in the nervous system that propagates death responses to oxidative stress in vitro and to stroke in vivo. Keywords: ATF4, oxidative stress, gene expression, neuroprotection, stroke WT and ATF4 KO embryonic neurons were studied. Untreated neurons (no=8 per genotype) and neurons challenged with oxidative stress with the glutamate homolog homocysteate (HCA, no=4 per genotype) were studied, for a total of 24 samples.

Project description:Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by motor dysfunction for which there is an unmet need for better treatment options. Although oxidative stress is a common feature of neurodegenerative diseases, notably PD, there is currently no efficient therapeutic strategy able to tackle this system-wide pathophysiological process. Based on our previous observations of the potent antioxidant and neuroprotective activity of SELENOT, a vital thioredoxin-like selenoprotein, we designed the small peptide PSELT from its redox active site in order to determine its potential polyfunctional activity in PD models. PSELT proved to site in order to be protective for neurotoxin-treated dopaminergic neurons and fibers against oxidative stress determine its potential polyfunctional activity in PD models. PSELT proved to be protective for neurotoxin-treated dopaminergic neurons and fibers against oxidative stress and cell death. We demonstrate that PSELT is cell-permeable and acts in different subcellular compartments of dopaminergic neurons where oxidative stress exerts its deleterious effects. This protective activity prevented neurodegeneration and restored phosphorylated tyrosine hydroxylase levels, leading to improved motor skills in rodent models of PD

Project description:Disability or death secondary to intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is attributed to blood lysis, liberation of iron and generation of oxidative stress. Iron chelators bind free iron and prevent neuronal death induced by oxidative stress and disability due to ICH, but the mechanisms remain unclear. Here we show that the hypoxia-inducible factor prolylhydroxylase (HIF PHD) family of iron-dependent oxygen sensors is an effector of iron chelation in abrogating ICH-induced death. Molecular reduction of the three HIF PHD isoforms in mouse striatum improves functional recovery following ICH. A low molecular weight, hydroxyquinoline inhibitor of the HIF PHDs, which we call adaptaquin, reduces neuronal death and behavioral deficits following ICH in distinct rodent models. Unexpectedly, adaptaquin protects from oxidative death by suppressing ATF4- dependent prodeath gene expression rather than by activating a HIF-dependent prosurvival pathway.

Project description:Oxidative DNA damage in neurons activates a DNA damage response (DDR) to promote repair. Under a chronic oxidative environment these processes may be altered and promote accumulation of unrepaired DNA damage and continued activation of a DDR, leading to apoptosis or senescence activation. Accumulation of oxidative DNA damage are features of brain ageing and neurodegeneration but the effects of persistent DNA damage in neurons are not well characterised. We developed a model of persistent oxidative DNA damage in human neurons in vitro (LUHMES) by exposing them to a sub-lethal concentration of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) following a "single stress" and “double stress” protocols. We characterised the neuronal transcriptome under these circumstances using microarray analysis.

Project description:Oxidative stress illustrates an imbalance between radical formation and removal. Frequent redox stress is critically involved in a variety of human pathologies including cancer, psoriasis, and chronic wounds. However, reactive species pursue a dual role being involved in signaling on the one hand and oxidative damage on the other. Using a HaCaT keratinocyte cell culture model, we here aimed at investigating the cellular and transcriptional response to periodic, low dose oxidative challenge over three months. Chronic redox stress was generated by frequent incubation with cold physical plasma treated cell culture medium. Using mRNA microarray technology, we found both acute ROS stress responses as well as numerous adaptions on the transcriptional level and over several weeks of redox challenge. This included an altered expression of 260 genes that function in inflammation and redox homeostasis, such as, signaling molecules, cytokines, and anti-oxidant enzymes. Apoptotic signaling was affected to a minor extend, especially in p53 down-stream targets. Strikingly, the anti-apoptotic heat shock protein HSP27 was strongly upregulated. These results suggest a variety of adaptive responses relating involved a number of cellular processes elicited by frequent redox stress over several months. They may help to better understand inflammatory responses in redox related diseases and possibly allow uncovering new biomarkers of ROS-stress. Microarrays were used to analyze and investigate the biological effects of repeated exposure of cold physical plasma on human HaCaT keratinocytes. Using an argon plasma jet kinpen, regulated transcripts were analyzed and further described in Schmidt et al. (submittes): âLong-term exposure to cold plasma-generated ROS âan in vitro model for redox-related diseases of the skinâ. HaCaT keratinocytes exposed to plasma treated medium - time course

Project description:Axon regeneration in the central nervous system (CNS) requires reactivating injured neurons’ intrinsic growth state and enabling growth in an inhibitory environment. Using an inbred mouse neuronal phenotypic screen, we find that CAST/Ei mouse adult dorsal root ganglion neurons extend axons more on CNS myelin than the other eight strains tested, especially when pre-injured. Injury-primed CAST/Ei neurons also regenerate markedly in the spinal cord and optic nerve more than those from C57BL/6 mice and show greater spouting following ischemic stroke. Heritability estimates indicate that extended growth in CAST/Ei neurons on myelin is genetically determined, and two whole-genome expression screens yield the Activin transcript Inhba as most correlated with this ability. These screens are presented here. Biological quadruplicate - Mouse tissue - Naïve Dorsal Root Ganglia (DRG) and 5 day post sciatic nerve crush DRG - x9 strains.

Abstract:
The ability of reactive oxygen species (ROS) to cause
molecular damage has meant that chronic oxidative stress has
been mostly studied from the point of view of being a source of
toxicity to the cell. However, the known duality of ROS
molecules as both damaging agents and cellular redox signals
implies another perspective in the study of sustained oxidative
stress. This is a perspective of studying oxidative stress as a
constitutive signal within the cell. In this work, we adopt a
theoretical perspective as an exploratory and explanatory
approach to examine how chronic oxidative stress can interfere
with signal processing by redox signalling pathways in the
cell. We report that constitutive signals can give rise to a
'molecular habituation' effect that can prime for a gradual
loss of biological function. This is because a constitutive
signal in the environment has the potential to reduce the
responsiveness of a signalling pathway through the prolonged
activation of negative regulators. Additionally, we demonstrate
how this phenomenon is likely to occur in different signalling
pathways exposed to persistent signals and furthermore at
different levels of biological organisation.
