Examine differential expression of sulf-1 and sulf-2, enzymes involved in heparan sulfate biosynthesis

ABSTRACT: Our specific aim is to examine differential expression of sulf-1 and sulf-2, enzymes involved in heparan sulfate biosynthesis, as well as Wnt ligands and Wnt signaling mediators during corneal wound healing using a mouse corneal scratch model. The specific structural features of heparan sulfate underlie its role in modulating cellular responses to growth factors such as the Wnts. Heparan sulfate 6-O-endosulfatases (sulf-1 and sulf-2) remove 6-O sulfate group from trisulfated disaccharides present on heparan sulfate chains. Our preliminary results suggest that sulf-1 is upregulated at the protein level in the epithelial cells of wounded mouse corneas, as compared to the undamaged contralateral eye. Modulation of heparan sulfate proteoglycan expression and/or structural modifications of its chains might be an important aspect of the regulation of epithelial cell migration and proliferation during wound healing.

Modulation of heparan sulfate proteoglycan expression and/or structural modifications of its chains might be an important aspect of the regulation of epithelial cell migration and proliferation during wound healing. RNA preparations from four different conditions, were sent to Microarray Core (E). Gene expression was examined in triplicates at 2 time points (8 and 24 hrs post-wounding: 6 arrays), using the contralateral eye as a control at one time point as a control (3 arrays). To account for a systemic response (i.e. bilateral inflammation) to the corneal wounding, corneas of non-wounded mice (3 arrays) were used. The RNA was amplified, labeled, and hybridized to the GLYCOv3 microarrays.

Heparan sulfate in skin wounds

Project description:Standardized skin wounds were established surgically on mice and allowed to heal during a 15-day period. Expression of genes related to heparan sulfate biosynthesis was studied in wound bed and edges during the healing process. Total RNA was isolated from wound edge (regenerating skin) and wound bed at 2, 6 and 15 days post wounding, as well as from intact control skin. Three animals were used for each time point.

Expression data from adult mice pulmonary endothelial cells

Project description:Sepsis patients are at increased risk for hospital-acquired pulmonary infections, potentially due to post-septic immunosuppression known as the compensatory anti-inflammatory response syndrome (CARS). CARS has been attributed to leukocyte dysfunction, with an unclear role for endothelial cells. The pulmonary circulation is lined by an endothelial glycocalyx, a heparan sulfate-rich layer essential to pulmonary homeostasis. Heparan sulfate degradation occurs early in sepsis, leading to lung injury. Endothelial synthesis of new heparan sulfates subsequently allows for glycocalyx reconstitution and endothelial recovery. We hypothesized that remodeling of the reconstituted endothelial glycocalyx, mediated by alterations in the endothelial machinery responsible for heparan sulfate synthesis, contributes to CARS. Our experimental animal model of CARS recapitulated post-septic immunosuppression, coincidentally with structural remodeling of endothelial glycocalyx heparan sulfate. We used microarray to identify which heparan sulfate modifying enzyme is responsible for the remodeling of post-septic reconstituted glycocalyx, characterized with enrichment of heparan sulfate disaccharides sulfated at the 6-O position of glucosamine.

Heparan sulfate modifications of betaglycan promote TIMP3-dependent ectodomain shedding to fine-tune TGF-β signaling.

Project description:Betaglycan/type III TGF-β receptor (TGFBR3) is an established co-receptor for the TGF-β superfamily with direct binding demonstrated for TGF-β 1-3 and inhibin A. Betaglycan can be membrane-bound or have its ectodomain cleaved/ shed to produce soluble-betaglycan that has been demonstrated to sequester ligands. Extracellular domain of betaglycan is modified with glycosaminoglycan chains at Ser residues S534 and S545, to which heparan sulfate and chondroitin sulfate chains are covalently attached. To delineate the contribution of the heparan and chondroitin sulfate modifications on betaglycan on its shedding and thereby on TGF-β signaling in ovarian cancer biology, we used mutants of betaglycan with alterations to the different glycosaminoglycan modifications. We made the unexpected discovery that the heparan sulfate modifications are essential for maximum ectodomain shedding of betaglycan, which is further essential for the ability of betaglycan to suppress TGF-β signaling and the tumor cells responses to exogenous TGF-β ligand. Using unbiased transcriptomics, we identified TIMP3 as a key regulator of betaglycan shedding and thereby TGF-β signaling. Taken together, these studies are the first to demonstrate a critical link between the well-known modifications on betaglycan and TGF-β signaling responses.

A genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9 screen reveals KDM2B as a modifier of protein binding to heparan sulfate

Project description:Heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs) are expressed on virtually all animal cells and are involved in many important biological processes. Each HSPG consists of a core protein with one or more covalently attached linear heparan sulfate (HS) chains composed of alternating glucosamine and uronic acids that are heterogeneously N- and O-sulfated. The arrangement and orientation of the sulfated sugar residues of HS specify the location of distinct ligand binding sites on the cell surface, and these modifications can vary temporally during development and spatially across tissues. While most of the enzymes involved in HS biosynthesis have been studied extensively, much less information exists regarding the specific mechanisms that give rise to the variable composition and binding properties of HS.

To detect the heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSGP) core proteins that are expressed in these cell lines, so that candidates for the Sulf-2 substrate can be identified

Project description:We are requesting a gene microarray analysis for 10 cell lines that are pertinent to human non-small lung cancer. A main focus of ours has been the role that Sulf-2 plays in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Sulf-2 is an extracellular sulfatase that acts on internal glucosamine-6-sulfates within heparan sulfate chains. Sulf-2 can activate Wnt signaling, as well as modulate other signaling pathways. Our recent work (Oncogene 29:635, 2010) has shown that Sulf-2 is required for the malignant phenotype of five human NSCLC cell lines (increased migration, increased growth, growth in soft agar, and tumorigenecity in nude mice). Because Sulf-2 acts on HSPGs to regulate signaling, we are interesting in the HSGP core proteins that are expressed in these cell lines, so that candidates for the Sulf-2 substrate can be identified. In addition we would like to define the expression of heparan sulfate 6-O-sulfatransferase (3 genes) to see whether these genes are upregulated in cells that depend on Sulf-2 for their malignant phenotype. Finally, gene profiling will define which Wnt ligands and Wnt receptors (Frizzled''s) are expressed in the cells. We are asking for gene profiling on the 5 Sulf-2 expressing NSCLC lines previously studied (H292, H460, P-ST, B-ST, and Calu-6), 3 Sulf-2 negative NSCLC lines (H1299, H1703, H1975) and two normal bronchial epithelial cell populations (B-C, P-C). All of the cells are human in origin. There are a total of 10 cell types. With 3 repicates for each, the request is for 30 arrays.

Effect of Continuous Suppression of Heparan Sulfate during Flow on Arterial Endothelial Function

Project description:The arterial endothelium’s response to its flow environment is critical to vascular homeostasis. The endothelial glycocalyx has been shown to play a major role in mechanotransduction, but the extent to which the components of the glycocalyx affect the overall function of the endothelium remains unclear. The objective of this study was to further elucidate the role of heparan sulfate as a mechanosensor on the surface of the arterial endothelium, by (1) expanding the variety of shear waveforms investigated, (2) continuously suppressing heparan sulfate expression rather than using a pre-flow batch treatment, and (3) performing microarray analysis on post-flow samples. Porcine aortic endothelial cells were exposed to non-reversing, reversing, and oscillatory shear waveforms for 24 hours with or without continuous heparan sulfate suppression with heparinase. All shear waveforms significantly increased the amount of heparan sulfate on the surface of the endothelium. Suppression of heparan sulfate to less than 25% of control levels did not inhibit shear-induced cell alignment or nitric oxide production, or alter gene expression, for any of the shear waveforms investigated. We infer that heparan sulfate on the surface of porcine aortic endothelial cells is not the primary mechanosensor for many shear-responsive endothelial cell functions in this species.
