Project description:Vascular calcification is the ectopic deposition of calcium hydroxyapatite minerals in arterial wall. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms regulating vascular calcification remain incompletely understood. In this study, we applied RNA sequencing to explore the mechanism of vascular calcificaiton in both medial and atherosclerotic vascular calcification models.

Project description:Through variation in the cancer cell and their immune infiltrates each tumor represents a unique problem, but therapeutic targets can be found in the shared features. Radiation therapy can change the interaction between the cancer cells and the stroma through release of innate adjuvants including the STING agonist cGAMP. Enpp1 is a phosphodiesterase that can be expressed by cancer cells and can degrade cGAMP. Enpp1 can therefore limit innate adjuvant availability following radiation therapy. We observed that many cancer cells lack Enpp1 expression, but that Enpp1 expression is retained in cells of the tumor stroma and this expression in the tumor stroma limits tumor control by radiation therapy. We demonstrate the efficacy of a novel Enpp1 inhibitor and show that this inhibitor improves tumor control by radiation even where the cancer cells lack Enpp1. We show that the mechanism requires STING and type I IFN receptor expression by non-cancer cells, and is dependent on CD8 T cells as a final effector mechanism of tumor control. This suggests that Enpp1 inhibition may be an effective partner for radiation therapy regardless of whether cancer cells express Enpp1, and identifies a novel therapeutic Enpp1 inhibitor suitable for combination therapies in immuno-oncology.

Project description:Arterial media calcification caused by diabetes is an important cause of vascular calcification. Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP4) is associated with diabetic arterial media calcification. At the same time, long non-coding RNA(lncRNA) is closely related to the evolution of a variety of cardiovascular diseases, but the involvement of lncRNA in vascular calcification induced by DPP4 has not been reported in details. In this study, we established a model of human aortic smooth muscle cells (HASMCs) calcification induced by DPP4. There was a significant difference in the expression of lncRNAs and mRNAs between normal and calcified vascular smooth muscle cells detected by gene chip technology. Based on the results of microarray detection, we found that lncRNA may be involved in vascular calcification induced by DPP4 through regulating target genes.

Project description:ENPP1 expression correlates with poor prognosis in many cancers, and we previously discovered that ENPP1 is the dominant hydrolase of extracellular cGAMP: a cancer-cell-produced immunotransmitter that activates the anticancer STING pathway. However, ENPP1 has other catalytic activities and the molecular and cellular mechanisms contributing to its tumorigenic effects remain unclear. Here, using single cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq), we show that ENPP1 overexpression drives primary tumor growth and metastasis by synergistically dampening extracellular cGAMP-STING mediated antitumoral immunity and activating immunosuppressive extracellular adenosine (eADO) signaling. In addition to cancer cells, stromal and immune cells in the tumor microenvironment (TME) also express ENPP1 which functions as a gate keeper to block cGAMP sensing in these cells. Enpp1 knockout in both cancer cells and normal tissues slowed primary tumor growth and prevented metastasis in an extracellular cGAMP- and STING-dependent manner. Lastly, an ENPP1 knock-in mutation that selectively abolishes ENPP1’s cGAMP hydrolysis activity phenocopied total ENPP1 knockout, demonstrating that restoration of paracrine cGAMP-STING signaling is the dominant anti-cancer mechanism of ENPP1 inhibition. In summary, selectively blocking ENPP1’s cGAMP hydrolysis activity is a promising therapeutic approach for treating cancer.

Project description:Vascular calcification contributes to high cardiovascular mortality in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. An association between the uremic toxins indoxyl sulfate (IS) and p-cresyl sulfate (PCS) and cardiovascular disease has been suggested. This study provides strong etiological evidence for indoxyl sulfate and p-cresyl sulfate as major contributors to vascular calcification in chronic kidney disease patients. Continuous exposure to indoxyl sulfate or p-cresyl sulfate in rats with chronic kidney disease promotes moderate to severe calcification in the aorta and peripheral vessels. Unbiased proteomic analyses of arterial samples coupled to functional bioinformatics annotation analysis revealed that calcification events were associated with acute phase response signaling, coagulation and glucometabolic signaling pathways, while escape from toxin-induced calcification was linked with liver X receptors and farnesoid X/liver X receptor signaling pathways. Activation of inflammation and coagulation pathways in the arterial wall plays a pivotal role in toxin-induced calcification and strongly associates with hyperglycemia and insulin resistance. These findings reveal new perspectives to establish novel therapeutic targets to prevent, halt progression or cure vascular calcification.

Project description:Medial arterial calcification is a chronic systemic vascular disorder distinct from atherosclerosis and is commonly observed in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), diabetes mellitus, and aging individuals. We previously showed that orphan nuclear receptor NR4A3 is a key regulator in the progression of apolipoprotein (apo) A-IV-induced atherosclerosis; however, little is known about its role in vascular calcification. NR4A3 expression was upregulated in calcified aortic tissues from CKD mice or 1,25(OH)2VitD3 overload-induced mice, and in human calcified aorta. NR4A3 deficiency preserved VSMCs contractile phenotype, inhibited the expression of osteoblast differentiation-related genes, and reduced calcium deposition in the vasculature.

Project description:SGLT-2 inhibitors, such as empagliflozin, have been shown to reduce the occurrence of cardiovascular events and delay the progression of atherosclerosis. However, its role in atherosclerotic calcification remains unclear. In this research, ApoE-/- mice were fed with western diet and empagliflozin was added to the drinking water for 24 weeks. Empagliflozin treatment significantly alleviated arterial calcification assessed by alizarin red and von kossa staining in aortic roots and reduced the lipid levels, while had little effect on body weight and blood glucose levels in ApoE-/- mice. In vitro studies, empagliflozin significantly inhibits calcification of primary vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) and aortic rings induced by osteogenic media (OM) or inorganic phosphorus (Pi). RNA sequencing of VSMCs cultured in OM with or without empagliflozin showed that empagliflozin negatively regulated the osteogenic differentiation of VSMCs. And further studies confirmed that empagliflozin significantly inhibited osteogenic differentiation of VSMCs via qRT-PCR. Our study demonstrates that empagliflozin alleviates atherosclerotic calcification by inhibiting osteogenic differentiation of VSMCs, which addressed a critical need for the discovery of a drug-based therapeutic approach in the treatment of atherosclerotic calcification.
