Project description:PGC-1α overexpression in microglia protects against ischemia-induced brain damage in mice. To investigate the underlying mechanism of PGC-1α in vitro, we have employed whole mRNA microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform to identify genes with the potential to change the BV2 cells function. Indeed, PGC-1α overexpression alters the gene expression profiles of BV2 cells, this revealed that PGC-1α could inhibit the production of IL-1β and pro-inflammatory cytokines.

Project description:IL-15 is recognized as a promising candidate for tumor immunotherapy and has been described as both a promoter of cancer and a promoter of anti-cancer immunity. IL-15 was discovered in cells transformed by HTLV-1, the etiologic agent of adult T cell leukemia / lymphoma (ATL) and the human retrovirus that carries the Tax oncogene. We have developed the TAX-LUC mouse model of ATL in which Tax expression drives both malignant transformation and luciferase expression, enabling non-invasive imaging of tumorigenesis in real time. To identify the role of IL-15 in spontaneous development of lymphoma in vivo, an IL-15-/- TAX-LUC strain was developed and examined. The absence of IL-15 resulted in aggressive tumor growth and accelerated mortality and demonstrated that IL-15 was not required for Tax-mediated lymphoma but was essential for anti-tumor immunity. Further analysis revealed a unique transcriptional profile in tumor cells that arise in the absence of IL-15 that included a significant increase in the expression of IL-1α and IL-1α-regulated cytokines. Moreover, anti-IL-1α antibodies and an IL-1 receptor antagonist (Anakinra) were used to interrogate the potential of IL-1α targeted therapies in this model. Taken together, these findings identify IL-15 and IL-1α as therapeutic targets in lymphoma. We used microarrays to compare the gene expression profile of tumors in IL-15-/- TAX-LUC mice to IL-15+/+ TAX-LUC mice RNA was obtained from CD16/32HI and CD16/32LO cells harvested from n=2 IL-15+/+ (control)and n=2 IL-15-/- Tax tumors and was compared to look for alterations in gene expression in malignant and tumor infiltrating cells resulting from loss of IL-15 in vivo

Project description:Constitutively active RAS plays a central role in the development of skin cancer in the classical two stage skin carcinogenesis in mice and in a number of human cancers. Ras-mediated tumor formation is commonly associated with upregulation of cytokines and chemokines that mediate an inflammatory response considered relevant to oncogenesis. MyD88 is a crucial intermediate in the expression of multiple innate immune responders through signaling from the Toll-like/IL-1R family. We report that mice ablated for MyD88 or the IL-1R are resistant to topical skin carcinogenesis, and cultured MyD88-/- keratinocytes transduced with an oncogenic ras vector form only a few small tumors in orthotopic grafts. Initiated keratinocytes arising from oncogenic activation of ras are hyperproliferative but also resist signals for induced differentiation and upregulate a host of pro-inflammatory genes. Ras-transduced MyD88-/- keratinocytes are also hyperproliferative but the differentiation response is intact and pro-inflammatory genes are not upregulated. Using both genetic and pharmacological approaches, we find that in keratinocytes, the differentiation and immune regulation functions mediated by oncogenic ras require the establishment of an autocrine loop through IL-1α and its receptor leading to NF-κB activation. In the absence of MyD88 or IL-1R, this loop cannot be established. Further, blocking the IL-1a mediated NF-κB activation in ras-transduced wildtype keratinocytes corrects the defect in both differentiation response and proinflammatory gene expression. Collectively, these results demonstrate that ras activation converts normal keratinocytes to an initiated phenotype through a series of potentially reversible feedback signals that provide therapeutic opportunities through inhibition of IL-1 signaling. Gene expression comparison of wild type ras-transformed keratinocytes untreated (n=3) or treated (n=3) in vitro with the IL1R antagonist Anakinra.

Project description:Increased levels of hypoxia and hypoxia inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) in human sarcomas correlate with tumor progression and radiation resistance. Prolonged anti-angiogenic therapy of tumors can delay tumor growth but may also increase hypoxia and HIF-1α activity. In our recent clinical trial, treatment with the anti-vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A) antibody, bevacizumab, followed by a combination of bevacizumab and radiation led to near complete necrosis in nearly half of sarcomas. Gene set enrichment analysis of microarrays from pre-treatment biopsies found the Gene Ontology category “Response to hypoxia” was upregulated in poor responders, and hierarchical clustering based on 140 hypoxia-responsive genes separated poor responders from good responders. The most commonly used chemotherapeutic drug for sarcomas, doxorubicin (Dox), was recently found to block HIF-1α binding to DNA at low metronomic doses. We thus examined Dox treatment in 4 sarcoma cell lines, and found Dox at low concentrations (1-10 uM) blocked HIF-1α induction of VEGF-A by 84-97%, while inhibition of other HIF-1α-target genes including CA9, c-Met and FOXM1 was variable. HT1080 sarcoma xenografts had increased hypoxia and/or HIF-1α activity with increasing tumor size and with anti-VEGF receptor antibody (DC101) treatment. Combining DC101 and metronomic Dox had a synergistic effect in suppressing growth of HT1080 xenografts, primarily via induction of tumor endothelial cell apoptosis. In conclusion, sarcomas respond to increased hypoxia by expressing HIF-1α-target genes which may promote resistance to anti-angiogenic and other therapies. Metronomic Dox can block HIF-1α activation of target genes and works synergistically with anti-VEGF therapy to inhibit sarcomas. Pre-treatment biopsies were collected from 16 human sarcoma. The gene expression analysis was performed using Illumina platform.

Project description:Clearance of apoptotic cancer cells by macrophages, known as efferocytosis, fuels the bone-metastatic growth of prostate cancer cells via pro-inflammatory and immunosuppressive mechanisms that are still unclear. In this study, single-cell transcriptomics of bone marrow macrophages undergoing efferocytosis of apoptotic prostate cancer cells revealed a significant enrichment of a cellular response to hypoxia. Here we show that efferocytic macrophages promote HIF-1α stabilization under normoxic conditions through interaction with phosphorylated STAT3. Inflammatory cytokine gene expression analysis of efferocytic HIF-1α-mutant macrophages revealed a reduced expression of the pro-tumorigenic Mif. Furthermore, stabilization of HIF-1α using the HIF-prolyl-hydroxylase inhibitor, Roxadustat, enhanced MIF expression in macrophages. Finally, macrophages treated with recombinant MIF protein activated NF-κB (p65) signaling increased the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Altogether, these findings suggest that the clearance of apoptotic cancer cell by tumor-associated macrophages triggers p-STAT3/HIF-1α/MIF signaling to enhance tumor-promoting inflammation in bone, suggesting this axis as a target for metastatic prostate cancer.

Project description:Succinate administration induced characteristic type 2 immunity via the tuft cell-ILC2 immune circuit, significantly ameliorating DSS-induced colonic inflammation by enhancing bactericidal capacity, reducing intestinal permeability, and modulating cytokine profiles in the colon. Succinate promoted expansion of myeloid cells in peripheral blood, mesenteric lymph nodes (MLN), and colonic lamina propria. The protective effect of succinate was abolished in Ccr2-/- mice but maintained in Rag1-/- mice. Adoptive transfer of monocytes from succinate-treated donors to naïve recipient mice mitigated intestinal inflammation. RNA-seq revealed increased expression of proinflammatory cytokines IL-1β, IL-6, and lactate upon lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation in monocytes from succinate-treated mice. Moreover, the critical role of the IL-4Rα/Hif-1α axis in succinate-mediated protection was delineated.

Project description:To investigate the detailed molecular mechanisms for the regulatory role of HIF-1α in colon, microarray gene expression analysis was performed on colon RNA isolated from 6- to 8-week-old Hif-1α+/+, Hif-1αLSL/LSL mice. Background & Aims: The progression and growth of solid tumors leads to a state where tumors outgrow their capacity for efficient oxygenation and nutrient uptake and an increase in tumor hypoxia. Tumor hypoxic response is mediated by hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1a and HIF-2a. These transcription factors regulate a battery of genes that are critical for tumor oxygenation, tumor metabolism, and cell proliferation and survival. Therefore, inhibitors of HIF have been sought for as anti-neoplastic agents in several different kinds of cancers. Interestingly, in ischemic and inflammatory diseases of the intestine, activation of HIF-1a is beneficial, and can reduce intestinal inflammation. The efficacy of pharmacological agents that chronically activate HIF-1a are decreased due to the tumorigenic potential of HIF. However, recent advance in understanding HIF signaling have identified mechanisms, which could allow for isoform specific activators. Activation of HIF-2a increases colon carcinogenesis and progression in mouse models. However, the role of chronic HIF-1a activation is unclear in the progression in colon cancer. The present data demonstrates that activation of HIF-1a in epithelial cells does not increase colon carcinogens or progression in two mouse models of colon cancer, and provides the proof of principle that HIF-1a activation maybe safe as therapies for inflammatory bowel disease. Global gene expression profiling in colon RNAs isolated from 6- to 8-week-old Hif-1α+/+ (n=5, Shah 019) and Hif-1αLSL/LSL (n=5, Shah 020).
