ABSTRACT: RP11-115N4.1 was identified as the most differentially expressed lncRNA which was highly upregulated in peripheral blood of non-pregnant URSA patients (P = 3.63E-07, Fold change = 2.96),andthis dysregulation was further validated in approximately 26.7% additional patients (4/15). RP11-115N4.1 expression was detected in both lymphocytes and monocytes of human peripheral blood, andin vitro overexpression of RP11-115N4.1 decreased cell proliferation in K562 cellssignificantly. Furthermore, heat-shock HSP70 genes (HSPA1A and HSPA1B) were found to be significantly upregulated upon RP11-115N4.1 overexpression by transcriptome analysis (HSPA1A (P = 4.39E-08, Fold change = 4.17), HSPA1B (P = 2.26E-06, Fold change = 2.99)).RNApull down and RNA immunoprecipitation assay (RIP) analysis demonstrated that RP11-115N4.1 bound to HNRNPH3 protein directly, which in turn activateheat-shock proteins (HSP70) analyzed by protein-protein interaction and HNRNP` knockdown assays. Most importantly,the high expression of HSP70 was also verified in the serum of URSA patients and the supernatant of K562 cells with RP11-115N4.1 activation, andHSP70 in supernatant can exacerbate inflammatory responses in monocytes by inducing IL-6, IL-1β and TNF-α and inhibit the migration of trophoblast cells, which might associate with URSA.
Project description:We previously showed that the proteasome inhibitor bortezomib (Velcade) induces cell death in a subset of human bladder cancer cell lines. Heat shock protein 72 kDa (Hsp72) is the major cytosolic stress-inducible molecular chaperone, and is thought to protect cells from proteasome inhibition. Here, using whole genome mRNA expression profiling, we identify isoform-specific expression of Hsp72 within a heterogeneous panel of bladder cancer cell lines. Bortezomib induced strong upregulation of both the HSPA1A and HSPA1B isoforms of Hsp72 in 253J B-V and SW780 (HSPA1A-high) cells, whereas only HSPA1B isoform expression was induced in UM-UC10 and UM-UC13 (HSPA1A-low) cells. Bortezomib stimulated the binding of heat shock factor-1 (HSF1) to the HSPA1A promoter much more efficiently in 253JB-V cells than in UM-UC13, but other HSF1 transcriptional targets were induced in all of the cell lines, implicating a specific defect in HSPA1A induction. Methylation-specific PCR revealed that the HSPA1A promoter was selectively methylated in the HSPA1A-low cell lines (UM-UC10 and UM-UC13), and exposure to the chromatin demethylating agent 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine restored HSPA1A expression. Overexpression of Hsp72 promoted bortezomib resistance in the UM-UC10 and UM-UC13 cells, whereas transient knockdown of HSPA1B sensitized these cells to bortezomib. Exposure to the chemical HSF1 inhibitor KNK-437 promoted bortezomib sensitivity in the 253J B-V cells. Finally, shRNA-mediated stable knockdown of Hsp72 in 253J B-V promoted sensitivity to bortezomib both in vitro and in vivo. Together, our results suggest that a subset of human bladder cancer cells possess epigenetic modifications that shut off the HSPA1A promoter and increases dependency on the HSPA1B isoform to maintain Hsp72 expression. Our data also support the targeting of HSF1 or Hsp72 for use as tools to enhance bortezomib sensitivity in solid tumors.

RNA was isolated from cells using the TRIzol Reagent (Invitrogen/ Life Technologies, Grand Island, NY), followed by cleanup with RNeasy Mini kits (Qiagen, Germantown, MD). RNA was used for the synthesis of biotin-labeled cRNA, which was prepared using the Illumina RNA amplification kit (Ambion/ Life Technologies), and then hybridized to Illumina Human-HT12 (Illumina, Inc., Hayward, CA) chips. Washed chips were scanned with BeadStation 500x (Illumina) and the signal intensities quantified with BeadStudio (Illumina).
Project description:The onset of the liver inflamentation in the Sox17+/- embryos. The expression of Cxcl10, Cxcl2, Cxcl1 and stress-induced heat shock protein Hspa1a and Hspa1b were elevated in Sox17+/- livers at 17dpc, as compared with the wildtype livers.
Project description:In this study we employed a label-free global proteomics approach, with a sensitivity of over 10k quantified proteins per sample, to determine contributions of different compensatory mechanisms upon the proteasome inhibition with carfilzomib - in cells of multiple myeloma, normal fibroblasts and cancers of lung, colon and pancreas. We identified several responding pathways, while the main HSP70 family stress inducible molecular chaperones HSPA1A and HSPA1B (often addressed jointly as HSPA1A/B or simply “Hsp70”, due to nearly identical protein sequences) were the most universal proteasome inhibition responders in proteomes of all the studied cell types. Further overlap of differential proteomics with RNA-seq analysis obtained at the same condions (DMSO control vs carfilzomib treatment) and a subsequent validation showed that the proteasome inhibition-dependent induction of HSPA1A/B and other chaperone proteins in cancer cells is in fact transcription-driven.

Project description:In this study we used the cre-loxP recombinase system. All mice were genetically modified in as much as all mice had exon 4 of the IGF-I gene flanked by loxP sites. In the knockouts, Mx-Cre had also been introduced, which results in inactivation of the IGF-I gene specifically in the liver. RNA from liver, skeletal muscle, heart, fat (retroperitoneal fat) and bone (vertebrae) was extracted from 6 control and 7 mice deficient of liver-derived insulin-like growth factor-I (LI-IGF-I-/- mice) by Tri Reagent (Sigma, St. Louis, MO, USA) and purified using spin columns from Rneasy Total RNA Isolation Kit (Qiagen, Chatsworth, CA, USA). For microarray analysis, the RNA samples were pooled three or two, resulting in three pools per group while for the confirmatory RT-PCR analyses individual mice (n=6-7) were analyzed. For each organ, there were three pooled samples from the mice with deficiency of liver-derived IGF-I and 3 pooled samples from the wildtype mice i.e. intact IGF-I gene. The pooled RNA was reverse transcribed into cDNA, labeled, and analyzed by DNA microarray (MG-U74Av2 Array; Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA, USA). Scanned output files were analyzed using Affymetrix Micro Array Suite version 4.0.1 software (Affymetrix). To allow comparison of gene expression, the gene chips were globally scaled to an average intensity of 500. Each of the three LI-IGF-I-/- chips was compared with the three control chips, generating a total of nine comparison files. Only the genes that were regarded as M-^SchangedM-^T according to the Affymetrix algorithm in four to nine of the comparisons were selected for further analysis. We then calculated an average-fold change for the nine comparisons of the selected genes. For a gene to be regarded as consistently regulated in the LI-IGF-I-/- mice, the average-fold increase or decrease of the nine comparisons was set as at least 1.5 fold in at least 4 of the 5 analyzed organs. Microarray showed that heat shock protein 1A (Hspa1a), heat shock protein 1B (Hspa1b), and connective tissue growth factor (Ctgf) were decreased in all organs that expressed these genes. CCAAT/enhancer protein delta (Cebpd) decreased in 4 of the 5 analyzed organs. The RT-PCR analyses that were performed later confirmed that mRNA levels of Hspa1a, Hspa1b, and Ctgf decreased in LI-IGF-I-/- mice in skeletal muscle tissue while mRNA levels of Cebpd were unchanged.
