Redox-Dependent Igfbp2 Signaling Controls Brca1 DNA Damage Response to Govern Neural Stem Cell Fate

ABSTRACT: Neural stem cell (NSC) maintenance and functions are regulated by reactive oxygen species (ROS). However, the mechanisms by which ROS control NSC behavior remain unclear. Here we report that ROS-dependent Igfbp2 signaling controls DNA repair pathways which balance NSC self-renewal and lineage commitment. Ncf1 or Igfbp2 deficiency constrained NSCs to a self-renewing state and prevented neurosphere formation due to absent Igfbp2 cysteine-43 oxidation. Ncf1-dependent oxidation of Igfbp2 promoted neurogenesis by NSCs in vitro and in vivo, while repressing Brca1 DNA damage response genes and inducing DNA double-strand breaks (DDSBs). By contrast, Ncf1–/– and Igfbp2–/– NSCs favored the formation of oligodendrocytes in vitro and in vivo. Notably, transient repression of Brca1 DNA repair pathway genes induced DDSBs and was sufficient to rescue the ability of Ncf1–/– and Igfbp2–/– NSCs to lineage-commit to form neurospheres and neurons. Our study highlights the role of DNA damage/repair in orchestrating NSC fate decisions downstream of redox-regulated Igfbp2.

Project description:Background and aim: The Insulin-like growth factor (IGF) axis is increasingly suggested to be involved in fatty liver disease and progression. We identified IGFBP2 as transcriptional regulatory effect network in liver steatosis and conducted a translational approach of its role in liver pathology from mouse to human, and whether it is influenced by conventional clinical intervention that mitigate hepatic steatosis. Methods: Primary hepatocytes from either C57Bl6 controls, alb-SREBP-1c mice with moderate transgene induced hepatic lipid accumulation or aP2-SREBP-1c mice with massive ectopic hepatic lipid accumulation, were analyzed to identify regulatory networks based on differentially regulated hepatic gene expression. In a translational approach, serum of morbidly obese patients with and without diabetes and biopsy-proven NAFLD were used for ELISA-based validation of mouse data. Moreover, sera of patients undergoing intervention were analyzed and correlated to liver fat content. Results: Comparative knowledge-based transcriptome analysis identified IGFBP2 as top score regulatory effect network between moderate and aggravated fatty liver in mouse models. The reduced expression of IGFBP2 in aP2-SREPB-1c progressed fatty liver associated with Igfbp2 promoter hypermethylation. Reduced secretion of IGFBP2 from aP2-SREBP-1c hepatocytes was reflected in the circulation of the animals. In this phenotype, reductions of IGFBP2 were accompanied by reduced fatty acid oxidation and increased methyltransferase and SIRT activity. Physiologically, IGFBP2 has no direct impact on lipid metabolism but might modulate IGF1 action on de novo lipogenesis. In humans, IGFBP2 levels declined from non-obese men to morbidly obese men with NAFLD and NASH. In intervention study reductions in liver fat correlated with restoration of IGFBP2 serum levels to values found in healthy individuals in morbidly obese patients following bariatric surgery. Conclusion: In hepatic metabolism changes of IGFBP2 abundance is connected to lipid metabolism whereas changes in IGFBP2 secretion were directly reflected in the circulation. IGFBP2 serum concentration correlates with the degree of fatty liver, which seems to be related to plasticity of the adipose tissue. These data provide IGFBP2 as a potential non-invasive biomarker for fatty liver disease directly reflecting the degree of impaired liver function with the potential to indicate progressed fatty liver disease.

Project description:Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is the most common childhood sarcoma and is identified as either the embryonal or alveolar (ARMS) subtype. In approximately 75% of cases, ARMSs are characterized by specific chromosomal translocations that involve PAX and FKHR genes. ARMS gene expression signatures vary, depending on the presence or absence of the translocations. Insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 2 (IGFBP2) is strongly overexpressed in translocation-negative RMS. Because IGFBP2 is associated with tumorigenesis, we investigated its functional role in RMS. An analysis of IGFBP2 distribution in RMS cell lines revealed a strong accumulation in the Golgi complex, in which morphological characteristics appeared peculiarly modified. After silencing IGFBP2 expression, our microarray analysis revealed mostly cell cycle and actin cytoskeleton gene modulations. In parallel, IGFBP2-silenced cells showed reduced cell cycle and rates of invasion and decreased seeding in the lungs after tail vein injections in immunodeficient mice. An analysis of IGFBP2 mRNA and protein localization in human tumors showed abnormal protein accumulation in the Golgi complex, mostly in PAX/FKHR-negative RMS. Moreover, an analysis of patients with RMS revealed the presence of conspicuous circulating levels of IGFBP2 proteins in children with highly aggressive RMS tumors. Taken together, our data provide evidence that IGFBP2 contributes to tumor progression and that it could be used as a marker to better classify clinical and biological risks in RMS. Three independent silencing experiments on RH36, an embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma cell line, were performed to study the role of IGFBP2 oncogene in this childhood tumor. Each of 3 biological replicates has its own control which is represented by cell culture treated with a non-targeting siRNA (siCONTROL). 3 controls were used to produce a M-bM-^@M-^\control poolM-bM-^@M-^] that has been used as reference in all microarray experiments. Each microarray experiment consists of a competitive hybridization between test and reference RNA (e.g. silenced cells vs. control), labelled with Cy3 or Cy5. Two microarray experiments were performed for each of three silencing experiment (technical replicate). Each slide was scanned and the data was normalized and analyzed.
