Project description:Vitamin D may have anti-tumorigenic actions by influencing the gene expression profile of target tissues, which possess vitamin D receptors. We used a more physiological in vitro model, represented by short-term culture of breast cancer tissue slices, to study the transcriptional effects of a near physiological concentration of calcitriol. Methods. Breast cancer fragments were sliced and maintained in culture for 24 hours in the presence or absence (control) of calcitriol 0.5nM or 100nM (called physiological or supra-physiological concentrations). Five and 16 samples were included in a test or validation group and gene expression was analyzed by microarray (using SAM paired analysis) or qPCR, respectively. Results. Nine genes were regulated by calcitriol 0.5nM including CYP24A1, DPP4, EFTUD1 (FDR£0.01), which were up-modulated. However, using a less stringent FDR value (0.25) 61 genes were differentially expressed. Among the down-regulated transcripts were members of the MHC class II complex (HLA-DPA1, HLA-DQA1, HLA-DQA2, HLA-DQB1, HLA-DRA, HLA-DRB1, HLA-DRB3) and IgG binding (FCGR2A, FCGR2B, FCGR2C). There was an enrichment of genes presenting transcription factor binding sites for vitamin D, among the up-regulated genes and for interferon regulatory factor IRF1, among the down-regulated genes. Analyzing calcitriol supra-physiological effects, a more impressive transcriptional modulation was identified and 136 and 60 genes (FDR 0.1) were more and less expressed in treated samples. Up-regulated genes were involved in vitamin metabolic process, regulation of leukocyte-mediated immunity and positive regulation of alpha-beta T cell activation. Many of the induced genes were already reported as vitamin D responsive genes, including CD14, which was also up-regulated in another set of 16 samples. Genes modulated by both calcitriol concentrations were CYP24A1, DPP4, CA2 (these three in both sets of samples), EFTUD1, TKTL1, KCNK3. Conclusion. Small increments in calcitriol concentration, within the physiological range, for a relatively short period of time may exert transcriptional effects in breast cancer samples. Further studies employing physiological concentrations of vitamin D for longer periods of time may help to elucidate the hormone effects in breast cancer treatment and prevention.

Breast cancer fragments were sliced and maintained in culture for 24 hours in the presence or absence (control) of calcitriol 0.5nM or 100nM (called physiological or supra-physiological concentrations). Five samples were included and were categorized according to treatment in three groups: control (A), 1,25(OH)2D3 0.5nM (B) and 1,25(OH)2D3 100nM (C).Total RNA was isolated using RNeasy kit and than was carried out according to microarray Affymetrix protocol. Data was then assessed with GeneSpring X software for background correction, normalization and summarization of raw data (CEL files) using the Robust Multi-Array Average (RMA). Five samples were included in a test and gene expression was analyzed by microarray (using SAM paired analysis). To establish a differential gene expression profile between vitamin D treated and untreated samples, SAM two class paired, provided on MEV (MultiExperiment Viewer – Boston, MA, USA) was used. Unsupervised hierarchical clustering based on Euclidean distance and average linkage was used to verify association patterns. The reliability of the clustering was assessed by the Bootstrap technique using MEV (MultiExperiment Viewer – Boston, MA, USA). Samples (16) were included in a validation group and was analyzed by qPCR.

Project description:Background: Vitamin D has been observed to affect the expression of a number of genes, however its mechanism of action has not been completely elucidated. MicroRNA molecules have recently been shown to be key mediators of gene regulation. We hypothesised therefore that vitamin D might modulate gene expression by influencing the expression of microRNAs. Methodology/Principal findings: A microRNA array was used to investigate the expression of microRNAs in RNA extracted from cells exposed to calcitriol for 0, 8 or 36 hours. A diverse panel of human cell lines were analysed including Hep-G2, HL60, K562, two fibroblast cell lines (AG09309 and AG09319), and four lymphoblastoid cell lines (GM15084, GM12878, GM07348 and GM07019). When compared between 0, 8 and 36 hours of calcitriol treatment, there were several microRNAs that were differentially regulated but the significance of these was lost after correction for multiple hypothesis testing. Conclusions/Significance: No microRNA showed significantly altered expression after exposure to vitamin D. However, some nominally significant miRNA molecules may warrant further investigation for a potential vitamin D-related role in immune function.

Project description:Vitamin D deficiency is a major environmental risk factor for the development of multiple sclerosis (MS). The major circulating metabolite of vitamin D (25OHD) is converted to the active form (calcitriol) by the hydroxylase enzyme CYP27B1. In MS lesions the tyrosine kinase MerTK expressed by microglia and macrophages regulates phagocytosis of myelin debris and apoptotic cells that can accumulate and inhibit tissue repair and remyelination. We show that calcitriol downregulates MerTK mRNA and protein expression in primary adult human microglia and monocyte-derived macrophages, thereby inhibiting myelin phagocytosis and apoptotic cell clearance. Proinflammatory myeloid cells express high levels of CYP27B1 compared to homeostatic (TGFb-treated) myeloid cells. Only proinflammatory cells in the presence of TNF-a generate calcitriol from 25OHD, resulting in repression of MerTK expression and function. The selective production of calcitriol in proinflammatory myeloid cells leading to downregulation of MerTK-mediated phagocytosis has the potential to reduce the risk for auto-antigen presentation while retaining the phagocytic ability of homeostatic myeloid cells, thereby contributing to inflammation reduction and enhanced tissue repair.

Project description:Vitamin D induces anti-proliferative and differentiating effects in prostate cancer. Thus calcitriol, the hormonally active form of Vitamin D, and its analogs have been extensively studied in prostate cancer cells. Yet despite its importance, relatively little is known about the genome-scale mechanisms by which Vitamin D, through its cognate nuclear vitamin D receptor (VDR), exerts its regulatory functions at the genomic level. In this study, we defined VDR transcriptional networks in the LNCaP prostate cancer cell line by mapping the genomic binding sites of VDR and by identifying differentially expressed genes upon calcitriol treatment. We found that VDR and androgen receptor (AR) antagonistically regulate a subset of cell cycle-related genes that are over-expressed in prostate cancer tumors. The expression balance of these genes is partially regulated through the competition dynamics between AR and VDR binding to shared cis-regulatory elements. On such shared elements, we found that FOXA1 mediates this competition by serving as a pioneering factor for both AR and VDR binding. We also found significant enrichment of AR-, VDR-, and AR/VDR overlapping binding sites in prostate cancer-associated single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) intervals identified from genome-wide association studies (GWAS), providing genetic evidence to link AR, VDR and their crosstalk to prostate cancer susceptibilities. In particular, we found that in a cis-regulatory element of the RFX6 gene implicated in prostate cancer progression, an allelic variant increases prostate cancer risk by switching the antagonism between AR and VDR into a synergistic interaction.

Project description:AIM Vitamin D deficiency is associated with risk of several common cancers, including colorectal cancer (CRC). We investigated the effects of vitamin D on in vitro and ex vivo epithelial cell gene expression and assessed dysregulation of pathways involved in anti-tumour effects. METHODS We performed in vitro and ex vivo intervention studies using established CRC cell lines and patient-derived epithelial organoids developed from normal human colonic (resectional colorectal surgery) and rectal mucosa (rectal biopsy). RNA and protein were harvested after 16-24 hours’ calcitriol treatment. Gene expression was assessed by qRT-PCR, microarray and RNA-sequencing, and protein expression by immunoblotting and mass-spectrometry. Gene Ontology enrichment analysis was performed using GOrilla and Gene Set Enrichment Analysis. RESULTS Calcitriol increased the expression of the tumour suppressor gene CDH1 in CRC cell lines (SW480; FC=3.60, 95%CI 2.17-5.03) and patient-derived epithelial cell organoids (n=6, FC=1.64, 95%CI 1.49-1.80), with associated in vitro E-cadherin protein induction. Significant differential expression of a further 6 common genes was observed on microarray analysis of in vitro and ex vivo experiments, including genes with established links to carcinogenesis GADD45, EFTUD1 and KIAA1199. Numerous ontologies relevant to carcinogenesis were enriched (e.g. ‘regulation of Wnt signaling pathway’, ‘regulation of cell death’), with common enriched processes across in vitro and ex vivo cultures including ‘negative regulation of cell proliferation’, ‘regulation of cell migration’ and ‘regulation of cell differentiation’. CONCLUSIONS We report for the first time, common genes and pathways modulated by calcitriol treatment in both in vitro and ex vivo models, with several differentially expressed genes strongly linked to CRC tumourigenesis. Enrichment of biological pathways after calcitriol treatment provides further evidence of anti-tumour effects. These findings support epidemiological data and provide strong rationale for well-designed trials of vitamin D supplementation as a novel CRC chemopreventive and chemotherapeutic agent. see above

Project description:Chondro/osteoblastic and cardiovascular-disease associated genes are modulated in human coronary artery smooth muscle cells that calcify in the presence of phosphate and vitamin D sterols. Looking at the effect of media conditions with and without Vitamin D, paracalcitriol (a vitamin D analog), or R568 (a calcimimetic) vs. dose and time on calcification of human coronary smooth muscle cells. Experiment Overall Design: CASMCs were exposed to differentiation medium [beta glycerophosphate (10 mM), ascorbic acid (50 mg/ml), and dexamethasone (10-9 M) with and without calcitriol or paricalcitol (10-8 M) for 7 days, and total RNA was examined by microarray.

Project description:Analysis of acute effects of ligand-treatment on vitamin D receptor binding genome-wide using ChIP-seq. THP-1 monocytic leucemia cells were treated with 1?,25(OH)2D3 (1,25D) or left unstimulated to investigate the acute effects of VDR chromatin occupancy. We identified in total 2340 VDR binding sites with and without the ligand. Without the ligand, there is a considerable presence of VDR already on the chromatin. However, upon a short (40 min) ligand treatment VDR shifts from sites that rarely contain a DR3 type element to sites that frequently contain one or more DR3-type element. Genome-wide identification of VDR binding in THP-1 cells at the unstimulated state and after 40 min ligand (10 nM 1?,25(OH)2D3 (1,25D, calcitriol)) treatment.
