Circulating microRNAs in relapsing MS patients treated with dimethyl fumarate in the phase 4 TREMEND trial

ABSTRACT: Dimethyl fumarate (DMF) is an oral drug approved for relapsing multiple sclerosis (MS) that leads to reduction of neurofilament light (NFL). This may be related to dynamics and persistence of microRNA signatures in the peripheral blood of treatment-naïve MS patients before and after dimethyl fumarate (DMF) at different time points. 210 blood samples were collected from 51 treatment-naïve patients at baseline (BL) and after 1-3, 4-7, 9-15 and 21-27 months of DMF and from 22 controls from the phase IV TREMEND trial. Using microarray, 1,085 miRNAs were two-folds above the background and compared versus NFL. Altered miRNA profiles peaked after 4-7 months. MiR-16-5p and miR-4306, involved in the NF-kB-pathway, were upregulated in low NFL samples, while miR-940 and miR-4665-3p were upregulated in high NFL samples. NFL and miRNA correlations were strongest after 4-7 months DMF. In four patients with blood samples taken at all 5 time points, time-series analysis found miR-146a-5p, the inhibitor of the NF-kB-pathway, increased 1-3 months after treatment. DMF induces dynamic changes in composite miRNA profiles 4-7 months after initiation, several involved in the NF-kB-pathway. Upregulation of miR-16-5p and miR-4306 in low-NFL, while miR-940 and miR-4665-3p in high-NFL samples may indicate a response to DMF treatment.

Transcriptomic profile of multiple sclerosis patients treated with dimethyl fumarate and their age and sex-matched healthy controls

Project description:Dimethyl fumarate (DMF) is an immunomodulatory drug approved for the therapy of multiple sclerosis (MS). The identification of response biomarkers to DMF is a necessity in the clinical practice. With this aim, we studied the transcriptomic changes produced by DMF in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and its association with clinical response. DMF induced a mild transcriptional effect, with only 328 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) after 12 months of treatment. The overall effect was a downregulation of pro-inflammatory genes, chemokines, and activators of the NF-kB pathway. At baseline, no DEGs were found between responders and non-responders. During DMF treatment a differential transcriptomic response was observed, with responders presenting a higher number of DEGs (902 genes) compared to non-responders (189 genes). Responder patients to DMF exhibit a distinguishable transcriptomic response compared to non-responders that should be further studied for the validation of biomarkers of treatment response to DMF.

Differential neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory effects of dimethyl fumarate, monomethyl fumarate and cannabidiol in neurons and microglia

Project description:Dimethyl fumarate (DMF) is an immunomodulatory treatment for multiple sclerosis (MS) that can cross the blood-brain barrier, presenting neuroprotective potential. Its mechanism of action is not fully understood and there is a need to characterize if DMF or its bioactive metabolite monomethyl fumarate (MMF) exert neuroprotective properties. The combination of adjuvant agents such as cannabidiol (CBD) could be relevant to enhance neuroprotection. The aim of this study was to compare the effects of DMF, MMF and CBD on neuroprotective and immunomodulatory pathways in neurons and microglia in vitro. We found that DMF and CBD, but not MMF, activated the Nrf2 antioxidant pathway in neurons. Similarly, only DMF and CBD, but not MMF, prevented the LPS-induced activation of the inflammatory pathway NF-kB in microglia. However, the 3 drugs inhibited the production of nitric oxide in microglia and protected neurons against apoptosis. Transcriptomically, DMF, MMF and CBD exhibited differential effects on these pathways, with DMF achieving the most pronounced changes. Our results show that DMF and MMF, despite being structurally related, present differences in their mechanisms of action that could be relevant for the achievement of neuroprotection in MS patients and the potential of CBD as an adjuvant therapy in neuroprotection.

microRNA-7-5p inhibits melanoma cell proliferation and metastasis by suppressing RelA

Project description:microRNA-7-5p (miR-7-5p) is an established tumor suppressor in multiple cancer types and inhibits growth and invasion by suppressing expression and activity of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling pathway. While melanoma is not typically driven by EGFR signaling, expression of miR-7-5p is reduced in metastatic tumors compared to primary melanoma. Here, we investigated the biological and clinical significance of miR-7-5p in melanoma. Our results showed that augmenting miR-7-5p expression in vitro markedly reduced tumor cell viability, colony formation and induced cell cycle arrest. Furthermore, ectopic expression of miR-7-5p reduced migration and invasion of melanoma cells in vitro and reduced melanoma lung colonizationmetastasis in vivo. To investigate the mechanism underlying this effect, we used cDNA microarray analysis to identify a subset of putative miR-7-5p target genes associated with melanoma and metastasis. Of these, we confirmed nuclear factor kappa B (NF-ÎºB) subunit RelA, as a novel direct target of miR-7-5p in melanoma cells, such that miR-7-5p suppresses NF-ÎºB activity to decrease expression of canonical NF-ÎºB target genes, including IL-1a, IL-6 and IL-8. Importantly, the effects of miR-7-5p on melanoma cell growth, cell cycle, migration and invasion were recapitulated by RelA knockdown. Finally, analysis of gene array datasets from multiple melanoma patient cohorts revealed an association between elevated RelA expression and poor survival, further emphasizing the clinical significance of RelA and its downstream signaling effectors.. Taken together, our data suggest that miR-7-5p replacement therapy might have clinical utility in melanoma to inhibit the metastatic process, in part through its inactivation of RelA/NF-kB signaling. Total RNA was extracted from WM266-4 cells transfected with miR-NC or miR-7-5p precursor molecules (30 nM) for 24 h, using Qiazol reagent (Qiagen).

Effect of DMF and MEF on gene expression in select mouse organs: Single-dosing regimen

Project description:Delayed-release dimethyl fumarate (DMF) is approved in the United States, European Union, Canada, and Australia for the treatment of multiple sclerosis. DMF is also a component in a defined-mixture product with three salts of monoethyl fumarate (MEF) that is approved in Germany for the treatment of psoriasis. Characterizing common or distinct pharmacodynamic properties of DMF and MEF would provide insights into the mechanisms of action of delayed-release DMF versus fixed combination products containing DMF and MEF salts. In this study we evaluated the pharmacodynamic effects and pharmacokinetics of DMF and MEF in central nervous system and peripheral tissues of naïve mice following a single dose or 10 daily doses of DMF, MEF, or a combination of the two. DMF and MEF exhibited similar pharmacokinetic profiles, but differences were noted in biodistribution: monomethyl fumarate (MMF, the primary metabolite of DMF) exhibited a higher degree of brain penetration, whereas MEF was preferentially partitioned into kidney. Both common and distinct pharmacodynamic responses were observed in all assessed tissues for DMF and MEF alone or in combination. These findings indicate that all fumaric acid esters cannot be considered equivalent, and combinations of compounds may exert effects not observed when agents are used individually.

Transcriptomic analysis of fumarate compounds identifies unique effects of isosorbide di-(methyl fumarate) on NRF2, NF-kappaB and IRF1 pathway genes

Project description:Dimethyl fumarate (DMF) has emerged as first-line therapy for relapsing-remitting multiple scle-rosis (RRMS). This treatment, however, has been limited by adverse effects, which has prompted development of novel derivatives with improved tolerability. We compared effects of fumarates on gene expression in astrocytes. Our analysis included diroximel fumarate (DRF) and its metabolite monomethyl fumarate (MMF), along with a novel compound isosorbide di-(methyl fumarate) (IDMF). Treatment with IDMF resulted in the largest number of differentially expressed genes. The effects of DRF and MMF were consistent with NRF2 activation and NF-kappaB inhibition, respectively. IDMF responses, however, were concordant with both NRF2 activation and NF-kappaB inhibition, and we confirmed IDMF-mediated NF-kappaB inhibition using a reporter assay. IDMF also down-regulated IRF1 expression and IDMF-decreased gene promoters were enriched with IRF1 recognition se-quences. Genes altered by each fumarate overlapped significantly with those near loci from MS genetic association studies, but IDMF had the strongest overall effect on MS-associated genes. These results show that next-generation fumarates such as DRF and IDMF have effects differing from those of the MMF metabolite. Our findings support a model in which IDMF attenuates oxidative stress via NRF2 activation, with suppression of NF-kappaB and IRF1 contributing to mitigation of in-flammation and pyroptosis.

MicroRNA profiling of extracellular vesicles isolated from rhesus macaques vaccinated with DNA/ALVAC/gp120 vaccine

Project description:We contrasted innate and adaptive immune responses elicited by the DNA/ALVAC/gp120/alum vaccine in non-human primates differing in age. We performed several analyses. MicroRNA profiling in Extracellular Vesicles (EVs) isolated from plasma collected prior and 1 week following vaccination identified 109 miRNAs that differed significantly between age groups at the end of immunization. Several miRNAs correlated with risk of virus acquisition in young and old animals, but none remained significant following correction for FDR. In young animals, we identified 3 miRNAs which were modified by vaccination and correlated with decreased risk of SIV acquisition (unadjusted p-values). Of these three miRNAs, two, miR-139-5p and miR-29b-1-5p, were increased by vaccination, whereas one, mir 98, decreased by vaccination. MiR-139-5p has several validated targets, including: CXCR4, important for egress of CXCR4+ cells and monocytes from bone marrow and HIV entry in target T-cells; the cAMP-specific PDE4D gene which decreases CREB1-mediated transcription by degrading cAMP; and the IGF-1/AKT/Glut1 gene receptor, central for glucose utilization and cellular metabolism. The validated target of miR-29b-1-5p is the NF-kB pathway. Mir-98 has several validated targets, inhibits IL-10 production, modulates M1-M2 polarization of macrophages towards the M1 phenotype, and its CCL2-induced downregulation increases IL-6 production. These data suggest the importance of CREB1-mediated transcription in vaccine efficacy, identified in the study, is likely assisted by miR-139-5p targeting the cAMP-degrading PDE4D gene, and downregulation of the NF-kB pathway, targeted by miR-29b-1-5p.
