Expression data from cancer associated fibroblasts (CAFs) treated with OSM

ABSTRACT: The cytokine Oncostatin M (OSM) promotes cancer progression by acting as central node for multicellular interactions between cancer cells and surrounding stromal cells. OSM is mainly secreted by myeloid cells and the oncostatin M receptor (OSMR) is expressed by cancer cells and cancer associated fibroblasts (CAFs), among others. To understand the effect of OSM in CAFs, a small and well-annotated Clariom S gene microarray was performed in CAF-173 cells cultured in 3D spheroids and treated with OSM or vehicle (PBS).

Project description:After spinal cord injury, ependymal cells considered as stem cells activate, proliferate and differentiate mainly into glial cells. To understand this further at the molecular level, we performed RNA profiling of these cells in situ using laser-dissection and also when they are cultured as neurospheres in different conditions (growth, differentiation, dedifferentiation) Abstract: Numerous vertebrates, including Human, maintain a pool of immature cells in the ependymal region of the adult spinal cord. During injury, these ependymal cells, considered as multipotent stem cells, rapidly activate, proliferate and generate neurons and glial cells in lower vertebrates or mainly glial cells in mammals. The mechanisms underlying this activation are ill-defined and we intended to fill this gap by performing RNA profiling of mouse ependymal region after lesion. Bioinformatics and immunofluorescence identified activation of STAT3 and ERK/MAPK signaling in ependymal cells after injury. This was also accompanied by downregulation of cilia-associated genes and FoxJ1, a central transcription factor of ciliogenesis. Six genes were upregulated more than 20 fold, namely Crym, Ecm1, Ifi202b, Nupr1, Osmr, Rbp1, Thbs2 whereas only one, Acta1 was downregulated to this extent. We explored further the role and regulation in ependymal cells of Osmr, the receptor for oncostatin (OSM). This inflammatory cytokine is specifically expressed by microglia cells and we observed interactions between these cells and ependymal cells in vivo. Using culture of ependymal cells in neurospheres, we found that several cytokines induced OSMR, OSM being the most potent. OSMR is also upregulated by co-culture with OSM-expressing microglial cells. Treatment of spinal cord neural stem cells with OSM decreased their proliferation, upregulate p-Stat3 and reduced their differentiation into oligodendrocyte-lineage Olig1+ cells. These results suggest an important role for microglia-derived oncostatin in the activation and fate of spinal cord ependymal cell.
