Project description:Erythropoietin (EPO) is the primary regulator of erythropoiesis in the mammalian fetus and the adult through interaction with erythropoietin receptor (EPOR). Deficiency of EPO induces anemia that is a major cause of death in patients with chronic kidney disease. Thus, development of safe treatment for anemia is an urgent issue. In this study, we investigated the effect of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) on serum EPO level and erythropoiesis, and its mechanism was elucidated in rat. GABA significantly (P < 0.05) increased EPO level in serum and expression levels of EPO and EPOR in a dose dependent manner. GABA increased the expression levels of HIF-1 and HIF-2 in a dose dependent manner compared with the negative control; while GABA did not affect the expression of prolyl-hydroxylase domain protein-2α (PHD-2α) gene, an oxygen sensor. GABA supplementation alters energy production pathway resulted in hypoxic condition, which increases EPO level in rat through overexpression of HIF-1 and HIF-2. This study shows a new physiological role of GABA in EPO production and thus GABA could contribute to the prevention of anemia by using alone or in combination with other anemia treating drugs.

Project description:The erythropoietin (EPO) hormone induces red blood cell production and its recombinant form is the most prescribed drug for the treatment of anemia, including that arising in cancer patients. Based on randomized trials showing that EPO administration to cancer patients result in a decreased survival, we investigated the impact of EPO modulation on tumorigenesis. Using genetically engineered mouse models of breast cancer we found that EPO promoted tumorigenesis by activating JAK/STAT signaling specifically in breast tumor initiating cells (TICs) and promoting their self-renewal. Moreover, we define an active role for endogenous EPO in breast cancer progression and breast TIC self-renewal and demonstrate a potential application of EPO pathway inhibition in breast cancer therapy. reference x sample

Project description:The platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) signaling system contributes to tumor angiogenesis and vascular remodeling. Here, we show PDGF-BB markedly induces erythropoietin (EPO) mRNA and protein expression by targeting the PDGFR-beta+ stromal and perivascular compartments. In mouse tumor models, PDGF-BB-induced EPO promotes tumor growth via two mechanisms: 1) paracrine stimulation of tumor angiogenesis by directly inducing endothelial cell proliferation, migration, sprouting and tube formation; and 2) endocrine stimulation of extramedullary hematopoiesis leading to increased oxygen perfusion and protection against tumor-associated anemia. Similarly, delivery of an adenovirus-PDGF-BB to tumor-free mice markedly increases EPO production and hematopoietic parameters. An EPO blockade specifically attenuates PDGF-BB-induced tumor growth, angiogenesis and hematopoiesis. At the molecular level, we show that the PDGF-BB-PDGFR-beta signaling system activates EPO promoter via in part transcriptional regulation of ATF3 by possible association with c-Jun and SP1. These findings uncover a novel mechanism of PDGF-BB-induced tumor growth, angiogenesis and hematopoiesis. Comparison of S17 stromal cells treated with PDGF-BB for 72h to control

Project description:Patients with combined heart and renal failure, also termed the cardiorenal syndrome (CRS), have high cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Several key connectors between heart and kidney have been recognized, such as oxidative stress, inflammation, the renin-angiotensin system and the sympathetic nervous system. Monocytes are key players in the development of atherosclerosis and may act as a biosensor to detect changes in the systemic environment. Anemia, which occurs frequently in CRS, is partly due to an absolute and/or relative erythropoietin (EPO) deficiency. Until now, EPO treatment has largely been used to treat (renal) anemia, but recent research also showed beneficial non-hematopoietic effects such as anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative capacities. The hypothesis of the present study was that monocyte gene expression profiles of cardiorenal patients compared to healthy controls reflect the systemic nature of CRS and are responsive to short-term treatment with Epo. The first aim was to investigate whether this short term treatment revealed non-hematopoietic EPO effects. The second aim was to address whether EPO dampens expression of genes involved in inflammation and oxidative stress. Given the variable response to EPO, the third aim was to test whether baseline gene expression profiles or the acute gene expression modulation by EPO are associated with EPO resistance.

Project description:Background and objectives: This report describes an unusual presentation of severe hypertension (HTN) in a subset of pediatric kidney recipients treated with a steroid avoidance pediatric renal transplantation protocol. The HTN was secondary to atypical, reno-vascular abnormalities (RVA) of the transplanted vasculature, temporally associated with erythropoietin (EPO) use. Design, setting, participants, and measurements: To investigate the clinical significance underlying this event, a retrospective clinical study of 100 pediatric renal transplants was undertaken (50 steroid-free and 50 matched steroid-based controls), with peripheral blood transcriptional analysis of four RVA patients and controls. Results: Regardless of a higher observed incidence of anemia (p < 0.001) and greater overall EPO usage in the first post-transplant year in steroid-free patients, the incidence of new-onset HTN at one yr was significantly less in the steroid-free cohort (p = 0.03). Nevertheless, early EPO (first week post-transplant) was significantly associated with the combinatory findings of new-onset HTN (p = 0.03) and RVA (p = 0.007). Molecular mechanisms of RVA injury were investigated further by peripheral blood cDNA microarray gene expression profiling. A panel of 42 transcripts differentiated patients with RVA and HTN from three sets of matched controls, with and without HTN and EPO use, with 100% concordance (p < 0.001). The biological processes governed by these significant genes suggest a role for EPO regulation of growth factor receptor ubiquitination as a putative mechanism for renal vascular injury. Conclusion: This study cautions against the use early post-transplant use of EPO in immunosuppression regimens with steroid minimization/avoidance, which may have an increased incidence of post-transplant anemia.

Project description:Erythropoietin (EPO) drives erythropoiesis and is secreted mainly by the kidney upon hypoxic or anemic stress. The paucity of EPO production in renal EPO-producing cells (REPs) causes renal anemia, one of the most common complications of chronic nephropathies. Although mitochondrial dysfunction is commonly observed in several renal and hematopoietic disorders, the mechanism by which mitochondrial quality control impacts renal anemia remains elusive. In this study, we showed that FUNDC1, a mitophagy receptor, plays a critical role in EPO-driven erythropoiesis induced by stresses. Mechanistically, EPO production is impaired in REPs in Fundc1-/- mice upon stresses, and the impairment is caused by the accumulation of damaged mitochondria, which consequently leads to the elevation of the reactive oxygen species (ROS) level and triggers inflammatory responses by up-regulating proinflammatory cytokines. These inflammatory factors promote the myofibroblastic transformation of REPs, resulting in the reduction of EPO production. We therefore provide a link between aberrant mitophagy and deficient EPO generation in renal anemia. Our results also suggest that the mitochondrial quality control safeguards REPs under stresses, which may serve as a potential therapeutic strategy for the treatment of renal anemia.

Project description:We established a novel mouse model for postnatal erythropoietin (Epo)-deficiency anaemia, designated ISAM (inherited super anemic mouse), using a transgenic complementation rescue technique. To identify Epo-regulated genes in vivo, we examined the mRNA expression profile in the bone marrow of ISAM 6 hours after recombinant human EPO (rHuEPO) administration. Erythropoietin-induced gene expression in mouse bone marrow was measured at 6 hours after rHuEPO administration (3,000 U/kg). Three Epo-treated samples were analyzed, and two PBS-treated and one untreated samples were used as a control group.
