Immunocompatible Elastomer with increased resistance to the foreign body response

ABSTRACT: Polymeric elastomers are extensively employed to fabricate implants intended for prolonged implantation. However, implantation of the elastomers can induce strong immune rejection reaction known as foreign body response (FBR), resulting in the rejection of foreign implants and thereby diminishing their in vivo efficacy. Herein, we present a group of immunocompatible elastomers, termed easy-to-synthesize vinyl-based anti-FBR dense elastomers (EVADE), synthesized via a straightforward and scalable method. In contrast to the pronounced immune reaction triggered by the commonly used implantable elastomers, EVADE materials effectively suppress the inflammation and long-term capsule formation in subcutaneous models of rodents and non-human primates for at least one year and two months, respectively. Implantation of EVADE materials significantly reduces the expression of inflammation-related proteins S100A8/A9 in adjacent tissues compared to polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). We also show that inhibition or knockout of S100A8/A9 leads to substantial attenuation of fibrosis in mice, suggesting a target for fibrosis inhibition. Continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) catheters constructed from EVADE elastomers demonstrate significantly improved longevity and performance compared to commercial catheters. The EVADE materials reported here may enhance and extend function in various medical devices by resisting local immune responses to implanted biomaterials.

Gene expression study of macrophages during early foreign body reaction

Project description:Foreign body reaction (FBR), initiated by adherence of macrophages to biomaterials, is associated with several complications. Searching for mechanisms potentially useful to overcome these complications, we have established the signaling role of macrophages in the development of FBR. This study profiles gene expression of in vitro fibrinogen activated macrophages as well as that of freshly isolated macrophages from 3-days implants, against a background of unactivated macrophages/monocytes. Total RNA was isolated from fibrinogen activated macrophages, FBR macrophages and macrophages from blood (control). Samples were processed in triplicate on Rat Genome 230 2.0 Array GeneChips, adding up to 9 arrays in total. Microarray processing was performed at DNAVision (Charleroi, Belgium). The RMA comparisons between macrophases are linked below.

S100A8/A9 activate key genes and pathways in colon tumor progression

Project description:Studies using bone marrow chimeric mice revealed that S100A8/A9 expression on myeloid cells is essential for development of colon tumors. Our results thus reveal a novel role for myeloid-derived S100A8/A9 in activating specific downstream genes associated with tumorigenesis and in promoting tumor growth and metastasis. Subconfluent cultures of MC38 cells were serum-starved for 16 hrs and activated with 10ug/mL S100A8/A9 for 6 hrs. Total RNA was extracted from unactivated or activated cells. 2 replicates each per stimulated cells, unstimulated cells, and control cells.

S100A8/A9 induced by interaction with macrophages in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma promotes the migration and invasion of cancer cells via Akt and p38 MAPK pathways

Project description:Tumor-associated macrophages enhance the malignant phenotypes of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) cells. We have previously identified several factors associated with ESCC progression using an indirect co-culture assay between ESCC cells and macrophages. Here, we newly established a direct co-culture assay between ESCC cells and macrophages which is closer to the actual cancer microenvironment than an indirect co-culture assay. To investigate the gene expression changes by co-culture with macrophages, we performed cDNA microarray analysis between mono-cultured and co-cultured ESCC cells with macrophages. We found that the expression of S100 calcium binding protein A8 and A9 (S100A8 and S100A9) was enhanced in co-cultured ESCC cells with macrophages. S100A8 and S100A9 commonly exist stable and function as a heterodimer (S100A8/A9). S100A8/A9 is widely known as an inflammation marker. It also contributes to the enhancement of malignant phenotypes in several cancers. S100A8/A9 enhances the migration and invasion of ESCC cells by activating Akt and p38 MAPK signaling pathways. The higher expression levels of S100A8/A9 were associated with poor prognosis in ESCC patients. These results suggest that S100A8/A9 contributes to the progression of ESCC.

Reawakening of Dormant Tumor Cells by Modified Lipids derived from Stress Activated Neutrophils

Project description:Tumor recurrence years after seemingly successful treatment of primary tumors is one of the major causes of mortality in cancer patients. Reactivation of dormant tumor cells is largely responsible for this phenomenon. Using models of lung and ovarian cancer, we found a specific mechanism that may govern this process mediated by stress and neutrophils. Stress hormones cause rapid release of S100A8/A9 proteins by neutrophils. S100A8/A9 induce activation of myeloperoxidase resulting in accumulation of oxidized lipids. These lipids up-regulate fibroblast growth factor pathway in tumor cells causing tumor cell exit from the dormancy and formation of tumor lesions. Higher serum levels of S100A8/A9 were associated with shorter time to recurrence in patients with lung cancer after complete tumor resection. Targeting of S100A8/A9 or β2 adrenergic receptors abrogated stress induced reactivation of dormant tumor cells. These observations demonstrate a mechanism linking stress, and specific neutrophils activation with early recurrence in cancer.

A proteome-wide screen identifies the calcium binding proteins, S100A8/S100A9, as clinically relevant therapeutic targets in aortic dissection: a translational study [scRNA-seq]

Project description:S100A8 and S100A9 (aliases MRP8 and MRP14) are highly expressed in neutrophils and monocytes and are classified as damage-associated molecular pattern (DAMP) molecules or alarm molecules. However, the role of S100A8/A9 in aortic dissection has not been reported. In the present study, by employing an unbiased proteomics approach and RNA sequencing analysis , we found that the protein expression of calcium binding proteins S100A8/A9 were upregulated in the aorta and serum of TAAAD patients and also in a mouse model.

S100A8/S100A9 cytokine functions as transcriptional coactivator during breast cellular transformation

Project description:In an inducible model of human breast cellular transformation, we map genome-wide chromatin binding of S100A8, S100A9 and Pol II. We show that the calcium-dependent cytokines S100A8 and S100A9 are recruited to numerous promoters and enhancers. This recruitment is associated with multiple DNA sequence motifs recognized by DNA-binding transcription factors that are linked to transcriptional activation and are important for transformation. Nuclear-specific expression of S100A8/A9 promotes oncogenic transcription and leads to enhanced breast transformation phenotype. These results suggest that, in addition to its classical cytokine function, S100A8/A9 can act as a transcriptional co-activator.
