Tumor-specific mechanism of Treg enrichment mediated by the integrin avb8

ABSTRACT: Subcutaneous tumors from mock transfected LLC or b8 transfected LLC were established on flanks of C57B/6 FoxP3-Ires GFP mice. Mice were treated with isotype control antibodies or anti-b8 and Tregs (CD4+ GFP+) were sorted, pooled and total RNA isolated for RNAseq.

Project description:High levels of Hes1 expression are frequently found in BCR-ABL-positive chronic myelogenous leukemia in blast crisis (CML-BC). In mouse bone marrow transplantation (BMT) models, co-expression of BCR-ABL and Hes1 induces CML-BC–like disease; however the underlying mechanism remained elusive. Here, based on gene expression analysis, we show that MMP-9 is upregulated by Hes1 in common myeloid progenitors (CMPs). Analysis of promoter activity demonstrated that Hes1 upregulated MMP-9 by activating NF-kB. Analysis of 20 samples from CML-BC patients showed that MMP-9 was highly expressed in three, with two exhibiting high levels of Hes1 expression. Interestingly, MMP-9 deficiency impaired the cobblestone area-forming ability of CMPs expressing BCR-ABL and Hes1 that were in conjunction with a stromal cell layer. In addition, these CMPs secreted MMP-9, promoting the release of soluble Kit-ligand (sKitL) from stromal cells, thereby enhancing proliferation of the leukemic cells. In accordance, mice transplanted with CMPs expressing BCR-ABL and Hes1 exhibited high levels of sKitL as well as MMP-9 in the serum. Importantly, MMP-9 deficiency impaired the development of CML-BC–like disease induced by BCR-ABL and Hes1 in mouse BMT models. The present results suggest that Hes1 promotes the development of CML-BC, partly through MMP-9 upregulation in leukemic cells. Common myeloid progenitors (CMPs; Lineage negative, c-Kit positive, Sca-1 negative, Fc-gamma-receptor low, CD34 positive fraction) were sorted with a FACSAria cell sorter (Becton Dickinson). Retroviruses were generated by transfecting Plat-E packaging cells with retrovirus vector pMYs-Hes1-IRES-GFP or empty vector (pMYs-IRES-GFP) using FuGENE 6 (Roche Diagnostics). Infection of retrovirus harboring Hes1 (pMYs-Hes1-IRES-GFP) or empty vector (pMYs-IRES-GFP) into progenitors was performed using RetroNectin (Takara Bio). Hes1-transfected CMPs and Mock-transduced CMPs were isolated 36 hours after infection with a FACSAria cell sorter. One sample of Hes1-transfected CMPs and one sample of mock-transduced CMPs were analyzed with GeneChip Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array.
