Project description:A global understanding of the actions of the nuclear hormone 1?,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) (1?,25(OH)(2)D(3)) and its vitamin D receptor (VDR) requires a genome-wide analysis of VDR binding sites. In THP-1 human monocytic leukemia cells we identified by ChIP-seq 2340 VDR binding locations, of which 1171 and 520 occurred uniquely with and without 1?,25(OH)(2)D(3) treatment, respectively, while 649 were common. De novo identified direct repeat spaced by 3 nucleotides (DR3)-type response elements (REs) were strongly associated with the ligand-responsiveness of VDR occupation. Only 20% of the VDR peaks diminishing most after ligand treatment have a DR3-type RE, in contrast to 90% for the most growing peaks. Ligand treatment revealed 638 1?,25(OH)(2)D(3) target genes enriched in gene ontology categories associated with immunity and signaling. From the 408 upregulated genes, 72% showed VDR binding within 400?kb of their transcription start sites (TSSs), while this applied only for 43% of the 230 downregulated genes. The VDR loci showed considerable variation in gene regulatory scenarios ranging from a single VDR location near the target gene TSS to very complex clusters of multiple VDR locations and target genes. In conclusion, ligand binding shifts the locations of VDR occupation to DR3-type REs that surround its target genes and occur in a large variety of regulatory constellations.

Project description:The nuclear hormone 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (VD) has important cell regulatory functions. Various synthetic VD analogues are under investigation to identify candidates with an improved therapeutic profile against hyperproliferative diseases. VD directly activates the transcription factor VD receptor (VDR), which in turn stimulates the expression of a cascade of primary and secondary VD-responsive genes. The activation of the VDR through binding of its natural and synthetic ligands is linked to a conformational change presenting the interface with co-activator proteins, referred to as the (trans)activation function 2 (AF-2) domain. Multiple conformations of the VDR might be the key to understanding a selective action of VD analogues. The method of limited protease digestion was used here to characterize up to three different functional VDR conformations stabilized individually by VD and its analogues. The relative potency of VDR ligands can be quantified in the interaction with these VDR conformations by determination of a functional dissociation constant, where a two-concentration-point comparison has already provided important information. In this way seven amino acid residues in the AF-2 domain have been analysed as potential ligand contact points. Interestingly, residues Phe-422 and Val-418 seem to interact with all tested VDR ligands, whereas VD analogues such as the anti-psoriatic drug MC903 displayed additional contact points within the AF-2 domain. Taken together, limited protease digestion is a powerful method for studying functional VDR conformations and seems to be very appropriate for screening VD analogues.

Project description:Calcitriol, the active form of vitamin D, in combination with the glucocorticoid dexamethasone (Dex) has been shown to increase the antitumor effects of calcitriol in squamous cell carcinoma. In this study we found that pretreatment with Dex potentiates calcitriol effects by inhibiting cell growth and increasing vitamin D receptor (VDR) and VDR-mediated transcription. Treatment with actinomycin D inhibits Vdr mRNA synthesis, indicating that Dex regulates VDR expression at transcriptional level. Real time PCR shows that treatment with Dex increases Vdr transcripts in a time- and a dose-dependent manner, indicating that Dex directly regulates expression of Vdr. RU486, an inhibitor of glucocorticoids, inhibits Dex-induced Vdr expression. In addition, the silencing of glucocorticoid receptor (GR) abolishes the induction of Vdr by Dex, indicating that Dex increases Vdr transcripts in a GR-dependent manner. A fragment located 5.2 kb upstream of Vdr transcription start site containing two putative glucocorticoid response elements (GREs) was evaluated using a luciferase-based reporter assay. Treatment with 100 nm Dex induces transcription of luciferase driven by the fragment. Deletion of the GRE distal to transcription start site was sufficient to abolish Dex induction of luciferase. Also, chromatin immunoprecipitation reveals recruitment of GR to distal GRE with Dex treatment. We conclude that Dex increases VDR and vitamin D effects by increasing Vdr de novo transcription in a GR-dependent manner.

Project description:The DNA flanking the 5' sequence of the mouse 1alpha-hydroxylase gene has been cloned and sequenced. A TATA box has been located at -30 bp and aCCAAT box has been located at -79 bp. The gene's promoter activity has been demonstrated by using a luciferase reporter gene construct transfected into a modified pig kidney cell line, AOK-B50. Parathyroid hormone stimulates this promoter-directed synthesis of luciferase by 17-fold, whereas forskolin stimulates it by 3-fold. The action of parathyroid hormone is concentration-dependent. 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 does not suppress basal promoter activity and marginally suppresses parathyroid hormone-driven luciferase reporter activity. The promoter has three potential cAMP-responsive element sites, and two perfect and one imperfect AP-1 sites, while no DR-3 was detected. These results indicate that parathyroid hormone stimulates 25-hydroxyvitamin D3-1alpha-hydroxylase by acting on the promoter of the 1alpha-hydroxylase gene.

Project description:Signaling through the TLR family of molecular pattern recognition receptors has been implicated in the induction of innate and adaptive immune responses. A role for TLR signaling in the maintenance and/or regulation of Treg function has been proposed, however its functional relevance remains unclear. Here we have shown that TLR9 is highly expressed by human Treg secreting the antiinflammatory cytokine IL-10 induced following stimulation of blood and tissue CD3+ T cells in the presence of 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1alpha25VitD3), the active form of Vitamin D, with or without the glucocorticoid dexamethasone. By contrast, TLR9 was not highly expressed by naturally occurring CD4+CD25+ Treg or by Th1 and Th2 effector cells. Induction of TLR9, but not other TLRs, was IL-10 dependent and primarily regulated by 1alpha25VitD3 in vitro. Furthermore, ingestion of calcitriol (1alpha25VitD3) by human volunteers led to an increase of both IL-10 and TLR9 expression by CD3+CD4+ T cells analyzed directly ex vivo. Stimulation of 1alpha25VitD3-induced IL-10-secreting Treg with TLR9 agonists, CpG oligonucleotides, resulted in decreased IL-10 and IFN-gamma synthesis and a concurrent loss of regulatory function, but, unexpectedly, increased IL-4 synthesis. We therefore suggest that TLR9 could be used to monitor and potentially modulate the function of 1alpha25VitD3-induced IL-10-secreting Treg in vivo, and that this has implications in cancer therapy and vaccine design.

Project description:The nuclear receptor vitamin D receptor (VDR) is known to associate with two vitamin D response element (VDRE) containing chromatin regions of the insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3 (IGFBP3) gene. In non-malignant MCF-10A human mammary cells, we show that the natural VDR ligand 1?,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) (1?,25(OH)(2)D(3)) causes cyclical IGFBP3 mRNA accumulation with a periodicity of 60?min, while in the presence of the potent VDR agonist Gemini the mRNA is continuously accumulated. Accordingly, VDR also showed cyclical ligand-dependent association with the chromatin regions of both VDREs. Histone deacetylases (HDACs) play an important role both in VDR signalling and in transcriptional cycling. From the 11 HDAC gene family members, only HDAC4 and HDAC6 are up-regulated in a cyclical fashion in response to 1?,25(OH)(2)D(3), while even these two genes do not respond to Gemini. Interestingly, HDAC4 and HDAC6 proteins show cyclical VDR ligand-induced association with both VDRE regions of the IGFBP3 gene, which coincides with histone H4 deacetylation on these regions. Moreover, combined silencing of HDAC4 and HDAC6 abolishes the cycling of the IGFBP3 gene. We assume that due to more efficient VDR interaction, Gemini induces longer lasting chromatin activation and therefore no transcriptional cycling but monotonically increasing IGFBP3 mRNA. In conclusion, 1?,25(OH)(2)D(3) regulates IGFBP3 transcription through short-term cyclical association of VDR, HDAC4 and HDAC6 to both VDRE-containing chromatin regions.

Project description:HL60 promyeloid cells express both classes of oestrogen receptor (ERalpha and ERbeta). We show that hydrolysis of oestrone sulphate by steroid sulphatase is a major source of oestrone in HL60 cells, and that most of the released oestrone is not metabolized further to 17beta-oestradiol. Treatment of HL60 cells with retinoids or 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 increased steroid sulphatase mRNA and activity in parallel with the induction of CD11b, an early marker of myeloid differentiation that is expressed before the differentiating cells stop proliferating. Use of agonists and antagonists against retinoid receptor-alpha and retinoid receptor-X revealed that both classes of retinoid receptor can drive steroid sulphatase up-regulation. Steroid sulphatase activity fluctuates during the cell cycle, being highest around the transition from G1 to S phase. During the differentiation of HL60 cells induced by all-trans-retinoic acid or 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, there is increased conversion of 17beta-oestradiol into oestrone by an oxidative 17beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase. Treatment of Caco-2 colon adenocarcinoma cells with all-trans-retinoic acid or 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 also increases 17beta-oestradiol oxidation to oestrone. An increase in local oestrone production therefore occurs in multiple cell types following treatment with retinoids and 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3. The possible involvement of locally produced oestrogenic steroids in regulating the proliferation and differentiation of myeloid cells is discussed.

Project description:The anti-proliferative effects of histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors and 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1alpha,25(OH)2D3] converge via the interaction of un-liganded vitamin D receptor (VDR) with co-repressors recruiting multiprotein complexes containing HDACs and via the induction of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor (CDKI) genes of the INK4 and Cip/Kip family. We investigated the effects of the HDAC inhibitor Trichostatin A (TSA) and 1alpha,25(OH)2D3 on the proliferation and CDKI gene expression in malignant and non-malignant mammary epithelial cell lines. TSA induced the INK4-family genes p18 and p19, whereas the Cip/Kip family gene p21 was stimulated by 1alpha,25(OH)2D3. Chromatin immunoprecipitation and RNA inhibition assays showed that the co-repressor NCoR1 and some HDAC family members complexed un-liganded VDR and repressed the basal level of CDKI genes, but their role in regulating CDKI gene expression by TSA and 1alpha,25(OH)2D3 were contrary. HDAC3 and HDAC7 attenuated 1alpha,25(OH)2D3-dependent induction of the p21 gene, for which NCoR1 is essential. In contrast, TSA-mediated induction of the p18 gene was dependent on HDAC3 and HDAC4, but was opposed by NCoR1 and un-liganded VDR. This suggests that the attenuation of the response to TSA by NCoR1 or that to 1alpha,25(OH)2D3 by HDACs can be overcome by their combined application achieving maximal induction of anti-proliferative target genes.

Project description:The extracellular matrix protein nephronectin (Npnt), also called POEM, is considered to play critical roles as an adhesion molecule in development and functions of various tissues, such as the kidneys, liver, and bone. In the present study, we examined the molecular mechanism of Npnt gene expression and found that vitamin D3 (1?,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3,VD 3) strongly enhanced Npnt mRNA expression in MC3T3-E1 cells from a mouse osteoblastic cell line. The VD 3-induced increase in Npnt expression is both time- and dose-dependent and is mediated by the vitamin D receptor (VDR).
