Project description:Galectin-8 is an identified ligand of LILRB4, which is an immune checkpoint receptor expressed on monocytic cells.Isolated human CD14+ cells from human PBMC were treated with or without Galectin-8 to test transcriptome alteration. We then performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RNA-seq of 3 replicates from each group.

Project description:Failure of immunotherapy after applying checkpoint inhibitors or CAR-T cells is linked to T cell exhaustion. Here, we explored the T cell landscape in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) by single-cell omics analyses of blood, bone marrow and lymph node samples of patients and spleen samples of a CLL mouse model. By single-cell RNA-sequencing, mass cytometry (CyTOF), and multiplex image analysis of tissue microarrays, we defined the spectrum of phenotypes and transcriptional programs of T cells and and their differentiation state trajectories. We identified disease-specific accumulation of distinct regulatory T cell subsets and T cells harboring an exhausted phenotype exclusively in the CLL lymph node tissue. Integration of TCR data revealed a clonal expansion of CD8+ precursor exhausted T cells, suggesting their reactivity for CLL cells. Interactome analyses identified the TIM3 ligand Galectin-9 as novel immunoregulatory molecule in CLL. Blocking of Galectin-9 in CLL-bearing mice slowed down disease development and reduced the number of TIM3 expressing T cells. Galectin-9 expression correlated with shorter survival of CLL patients. Thus, Galectin-9 contributes to immune escape in CLL and represents a novel target for immunotherapy.

Project description:Background: Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) are relatively easily obtainable cells in humans. Gene expression profiles of PBMCs have been shown to reflect the pathological and physiological state of a person. Recently, we showed that the nuclear receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARα) has a functional role in human PBMCs during fasting. However, the extent of the role of PPARα in human PBMCs remains unclear. In this study, we therefore performed gene expression profiling of PBMCs incubated with the specific PPARα ligand WY14,643. Results: Incubation of PBMCs with WY14,643 for 12 hours resulted in a differential expression of 1,373 of the 13,080 genes expressed in the PBMCs. Gene expression profiles showed a clear individual response to PPARα activation between six healthy human blood donors, which was not the result of the nutritional status of the donors. Pathway analysis showed that genes in fatty acid metabolism, primarily in β-oxidation were up-regulated upon activation of PPARα with WY14,643, and genes in several amino acid metabolism pathways were down-regulated. Conclusions: This study shows that PPARα in human PBMCs regulates fatty acid and amino acid metabolism. In addition, PBMC gene expression profiles show individual responses to WY14,643 activation. We show that PBMCs are a suitable model to study changes in PPARα activation in healthy humans. Keywords: metabolic state analysis

Project description:Prostate cancer (PCa) causes significant mortality among men worldwide. Galectin-4 plays an important roles in regulatiog cancer metastasis and high level of galectin-4 correlated with poor survival in subpopulation of PCa patients. To further understand the galectin-4-mediated signature and develop effective treatment, we froced expressed galectin-4 in 22Rv1 and LNCaP cells, and downregulated galectin-4 in 22Rv1-M4 cells. Next, cDNA microarray were applyed to study galectin-4-mediated gene expression and cancer progression.

Project description:5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) is one of the natural amino acids and a product of the first heme synthesis pathway in mitochondria. Recently, a supplement containing ALA is available in Japan and used for the purpose of the enhancement of ATP synthesis via mitochondrial activity. In humans, the immunomodulatory effect of ALA has attracted attention as a new function of ALA, and its application to cancer, inflammatory disease, and autoimmune diseases are being investigated. In the present study, to evaluate the effects of ALA on canine immunity, we performed in vitro studies using peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from healthy dogs. Heme oxygenase-1 protein was expressed in Madin-Darby Canine Kidney cells and PBMCs treated with 5-ALA and ferrous sodium citrate (SFC), which showed that ALA works in dogs as well as humans. When PBMCs were stimulated with concanavalin A (ConA), the addition of ALA resulted in a significant increase in interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) produced by ConA-stimulated PBMCs. A comprehensive genetic alteration using next-generation RNA sequences (RNA-seq) was performed. From the result of RNA-seq, ALA enhanced the gene expression of T cell immunity including Th1, Th2, and Th17 subsets. In particular, the IL-17 signaling pathway was significantly upregulated. Then, we confirmed that ALA promoted the production of interleukin (IL)-17A in ConA-stimulated PBMCs. Together, these findings reveal that ALA promotes heme synthesis in mitochondria and enhances ConA-induced T cell immune responses in canine PBMCs.

Keywords: metabolic state analysis PBMCs from six healthy Caucasian male blood donors, aged between 30 and 48 yr, were isolated directly after arrival of the buffy coat (max. 8 hours after donation) by Ficol-paque Plus density gradient centrifugation (Amersham Biosciences, Roosendaal, the Netherlands). PBMCs were incubated in RPMI1640 medium with 2 mmol/L L-glutamine, 10% fetal bovine serum and antibiotics (penicillin and streptomycin) in the presence of 5% CO2 at 37°C. at 1.0 x 106 cells per ml with either WY14,643 (50 μM) or vehicle (DMSO, 0.1%) for 12 hours. Total RNA from PBMCs was labeled using a one-cycle cDNA labeling kit (Affymetrix Inc, Santa Clara, CA) and hybridized to Affymetrix Human whole genome U133 plus 2.0 arrays (Affymetrix). Sample labeling, hybridization to chips and image scanning was performed according to the manufacturer’s GeneChip Expression Analysis Technical Manual (Affymetrix).

Project description:The goal of this study was to examine differences in gene expression of tumor specific CD8 T cells in an in vivo tumor mouse model after inhibition of galectin-3 protein expression by genetic knockout. Galectin-3 is thought to modulate CD8 T cell response by cross-linking cell surface glycoproteins Galectin-3 is a 31 kD carbohydrate-binding lectin that is over-expressed by many human malignancies. It also modulates T cell responses through a diverse array of mechanisms including induction of apoptosis, TCR cross linking in CD8+ T cells, and T cell receptor (TCR) down regulation in CD4+ T cells. We found that patients responding to a granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) secreting allogeneic pancreatic tumor vaccine developed post immunization antibody responses to galectin-3 on a proteomic screen. We used the HER-2/neu (neu-N) transgenic mouse model to study galectin-3 binding on adoptively transferred high avidity neu-specific CD8+ T cells derived from TCR transgenic mice. Here, we show that galectin-3 binds preferentially to activated antigen-committed CD8+ T cells only in the tumor microenvironment (TME). Galectin-3 deficient mice exhibit improved CD8+ T cell effector function and increased expression of several inflammatory genes when compared with wild type (WT) mice. We also show that galectin-3 binds to LAG-3, and LAG-3 expression is necessary for galectin-3 mediated suppression of CD8+ T cells in vitro. Lastly, galectin-3 deficient mice have significantly elevated levels of circulating plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs), which are superior to conventional dendritic cells (cDCs) in activating CD8+ T cells. Binding of galectin-3 to cell-surface glycoproteins on immune cells suppresses a pro-inflammatory immune response. Thus, inhibiting galectin-3 in conjunction with CD8+ T cell directed immunotherapies should enhance the tumor specific immune response. 3 different experimental groups were studied. Galectin-3 WT CD8 T cells adoptively transferred into Galectin-3 WT mice, galectin-3 WT CD8 T cells transferred into galectin-3 KO mice, and finally galectin-3 KO CD8 T cells transferred into galectin-3 KO mice. Galectin-3 WT CD8 T cells transferred into Galectin-3 WT mice were used as the reference group. Four biological replicates were submitted for each group, and adoptively transfered CD8 T cells were isolated 5 days post-adoptive transfer into tumor-bearing mice treated with a whole cell GM-CSF secreting vaccine. Cells were purified by cell sorting on the Thy1.2 surface marker.
