Project description:Cytotoxic T cells are typically expanded ex vivo for adoptive immunotherapy by culture with IL-2. This culture period leads to a differentiated phenotype and acquisition of effector function, as well as a loss of in vivo proliferative capability and anti-tumor efficacy. Here, we report antigen-specific and polyclonal expansion of cytotoxic T cells in a cocktail of cytokines and small molecules that leads to a memory-like phenotype in mouse and human cells even during extended culture, leading to enhanced in vivo expansion and tumor control. OT-I CD8 T cells were cultured for 14 days in either IL-2 or a cocktail of memory inducing small molecules and cytokines (IL-7, IL-21, 2-deoxyglucose and TWS119). Populations were sorted, IL-2 cells were CD44+CD62L-, cocktail cells were sorted into CD44+CD62L-, CD44+CD62L+ and CD44lowCD62L+ populations, and naive OT-I cells were CD44-CD62L+. Total RNA was extracted from each population and prepared for sequencing as three technical replicates.

Project description:Bile acid (BA) homeostasis is maintained through a feedback loop operated by the nuclear hormone receptors FXR and SHP. Here we show that contrary to the current models placing FXR upstream of SHP in a linear regulatory pathway, the phenotypic consequence of the combined loss of both receptors is much more severe than the relatively modest impact of the loss of either Fxr or Shp alone. This is highlighted by the dramatic elevation of hepatic and serum BA levels in the double knockout (DKO) mice as early as three weeks of age coupled with a commensurate increase in Cyp7A1 expression and alterations in BA homeostatic genes. In addition, we find several genes necessary for C21 steroid biosynthetic pathway as novel targets for FXR and SHP. The elevated BAs result in severe hepato-pathology but the DKO mice surprisingly do not develop complete liver failure and live for over a year. Their survival is accompanied by an adaptive proliferation of the resident liver progenitor cell population, known as oval cells. Overall, these data demonstrate that FXR and SHP function coordinately to maintain BA homeostasis, and identify DKO mice as a novel genetic model for juvenile cholestatic disorders and for oval cell activation. Liver samples collected from FXR-/-, SHP-/-, and FXR-/-/SHP-/- animals at 3 or 5 weeks were hybridized to Illumina mouse REF-8 v1.1 arrays in duplicate.

Project description:The Farnesoid-X-Receptor (FXR) is a class II nuclear receptor (NR), a class that obligately heterodimerizes with the Retinoid-X-Receptor (RXR). FXR is expressed as 4 isoforms (α1-α4) activated by bile acids that drive transcription from response elements IR-1 (inverted repeat-1). We recently showed that FXR isoforms α2 and α4 bind to non-canonical response elements ER-2 (everted repeat-2), thereby increasing mitochondrial respiratory capacity and limiting de novo lipogenesis. Binding to ER-2 motifs in mouse liver organoids represented 89% of all FXR genome wide binding. However, mechanistic differences in FXR binding and activation from these two response elements remained unexplored. Using DNA pull down followed by mass-spectrometry, we show that RXR is not involved in FXR binding to ER-2 response elements. Instead, RXR inhibited FXR binding and activation from these elements in luciferase reporters. Genome wide, RXR-lacking FXR binding sites showed higher enrichment for ER-2 motifs in mouse liver. Pharmacological and mutational abrogation of FXR-RXR heterodimerization specifically retained ER-2 transactivation capacities in luciferase reporters and HepG2 cells. Transcriptome-wide, 25% of FXR targets were inhibited upon RXR overexpression, but specifically activated by a novel heterodimerization-deficient mutant FXRα2L434R. These genes were ER-2 responsive and were involved in lipid metabolism and ammonia detoxification. In conclusion, we discovered that RXR is not required and even inhibits binding of FXRα2 to ER-2. Thus, whereas FXR α1 and α3 seem to be genuine class II NR, FXRα2 and α4 are facultative class II at ER-2 motifs. This novel feature holds promise to exploit and tailor therapeutic responses to FXR agonism.

Project description:Acetylation of transcriptional regulators is normally dynamically regulated by nutrient status but is often persistently elevated in nutrient-excessive obesity conditions. We investigated the functional consequences of such aberrantly elevated acetylation of the nuclear receptor FXR as a model. Proteomic studies identified K217 as the FXR acetylation site in diet-induced obese mice. In vivo studies utilizing acetylation-mimic and -defective K217 mutants and gene expression profiling revealed that FXR acetylation increased proinflammatory gene expression, macrophage infiltration, and liver cytokine and triglyceride levels, impaired insulin signaling, and increased glucose intolerance. Mechanistically, acetylation of FXR blocked its interaction with the SUMO ligase PIASy and inhibited SUMO2 modification at K277, resulting in activation of inflammatory genes. SUMOylation of agonist-activated FXR increased its interaction with NF-κB but blocked that with RXRα, so that SUMO2-modified FXR was selectively recruited to and trans-repressed inflammatory genes without affecting FXR/RXRα target genes. A dysregulated Acetyl/SUMO switch of FXR in obesity may serve as a general mechanism for diminished anti-inflammatory response of other transcriptional regulators and provide potential therapeutic and diagnostic targets for obesity-related metabolic disorders. FXR-WT or the FXR-K217Q mutant was expressed in lean mice and FXR-WT or the FXR-K217R mutant was expressed in obese mice by adenoviral infection. One week after infection, mice were treated with GW4064 (30 mg/kg in corn oil) overnight before sacrifice and hepatic expression was analyzed by Illumina microarray.

Project description:The serine or threonine between two zinc fingers of the DNA binding domains (DBD) is highly conserved in a majority of nuclear receptors. In the present study, we focused on the serine 154 of farnesoid X receptor (FXR). To determine the influence of phosphomimetic or non-phosphomimetic mutation for FXR on gene expressions, we employed cDNA microarray analysis using COS-1 cells which ectopically express FXR S154A or FXR S154D with DMSO or CDCA.

Project description:The nuclear receptor, Farnesoid X Receptor (FXR, NR1H4), is a key transcriptional regulator of metabolism and a promising drug target for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), a leading cause of liver failure and death. Protein coding genes regulated by FXR are known, but it remains unknown whether FXR mediates its function through regulating expression of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) genes. Utilizing global RNA-seq and Gro-seq analyses, we identify an FXR-induced novel long non-coding RNA (lncRNA), termed FincoR.

Project description:The Farnesoid-X-Receptor (FXR) is a nuclear receptor (NR) known to obligately heterodimerize with Retinoid-X-Receptor (RXR). FXR is expressed as four isoforms (α1-α4) that drive transcription from IR-1 (inverted repeat-1) DNA motifs. More recently, FXR isoforms α2/α4 were found to activate transcription predominantly from non-canonical ER-2 (everted repeat-2) DNA motifs, mediating most metabolic effects of general FXR activation.Here, we explored whether co-occupancy of FXR and RXR in the mouse liver has an influence on DNA motif binding preference. We found RXR acts as a molecular switch, promoting FXRα2 activation from IR-1 instead of ER-2 motifs. Our results showcase FXR as the first NR with RXR-dependent and independent modes of activation, highlighting a potential new layer of complexity for other RXR-heterodimerizing NRs.

Project description:The farnesoid X receptor (FXR) is a nuclear receptor activated by bile acids that regulates metabolic processes. FXR is expressed as four isoforms (α1-4), and their relative abundance is specific to tissue and bio-energetic conditions (Correia JC et al. 2015). Depending on the FXR isoform expressed, there is a degree of selectivity in target-genes activation. In this dataset, we defined FXR-isoforms selective effects on transcription in mouse liver organoids after treatment with the FXR agonist Obeticholic acid(OCA). By linking the DNA binding profiles of the FXR isoforms with their transcriptional output, we concluded that differential DNA binding plays a defining role in FXR-isoform target gene selectivity.

Project description:The farnesoid X receptor (FXR) is a nuclear receptor activated by bile acids that regulates bile acid metabolism, glucose and cholesterol homeostasis. FXR is expressed as four isoforms (α1-4), and their relative abundance is tissue specific. Human livers express predominantly FXR isoforms α1 and α2. From mouse studies we know that the FXR agonist obeticholic acid (OCA) regulates expression of many genes in the liver. However, there is currently no data on the effects of OCA on FXR isoform selective gene regulation. This is particularly relevant since the relative FXR isoform amounts in the liver are regulated by general bioenergetic cues (Correia JC et al. 2015). In this study we investigate the effect of variations in FXR isoforms α1 or α2 expression on HepG2 cell lines response to treatment with OCA.
