Project description:Cystatin D (CST5) is an inhibitor of several proteases of the cathepsin family that inhibits cell proliferation, migration and invasion of colon carcinoma cells. Some of these effects are unrelated to its antiprotease activity. Here, we use genome-wide expression microarrays to show that cystatin D regulates gene expression (including that of genes encoding transcription factors such as RUNX1, RUNX2, or MEF2C) in HCT116 cells. HCT116 colon adenocarcinoma cell lines stably expressing cystatin D (HCT116-CST5 clone 9 and clone 20), mock-transfected (HCT116-Mock) and un-transfected (HCT116-Untransfected) were generated as described (Ãlvarez-DÃaz et al., 2009, PUBMED:19662683) and genome-wide expression microarrays were obtained to achieve the gene expression profile induced by CST5.

Project description:The conserved Runt-related (RUNX) transcription factor family are well-known master regulators of developmental and regenerative processes. Both Runx1 and Runx2 are expressed in satellite cells (SC) and skeletal myotubes. Conditional deletion of Runx1 in adult SC negatively impacted self-renewal, and skeletal muscle maintenance was impaired; Runx1-deficient SC cannot support muscle regeneration in response to injury. To determine the unique molecular functions of Runx1 that cannot be compensated by Runx2 we deleted Runx1 in C2C12 that retain Runx2 expression and established that myoblasts differentiation was blocked in vitro due in part to ectopic expression of Mef2c, a target repressed by Runx1. Structure-function analysis demonstrated that the Ets-interacting MID/EID region of Runx1 absent from Runx2 is critical to regulating myoblasts proliferation, differentiation, and fusion. Analysis of in-house and published ChIP-seq datasets from Runx1 (T-cells, muscle) versus Runx2 (preosteoblasts) dependent tissue identified enrichment for a Ets:Runx composite site in Runx1-dependent tissues. Comparing ATACseq datasets from WT and Runx1KO C2C12 cells showed that the Ets:Runx composite motif was enriched in peaks open exclusively in WT cells compared to peaks unique to Runx1KO cells. Thus, engagement of a set of targets by the RUNX1/ETS complex define the non-redundant functions of Runx1

Project description:Background: Cystatin F is a secreted lysosomal cysteine protease inhibitor that has been implicated in affecting the severity of demyelination and enhancing remyelination in pre-clinical models of immune-mediated demyelination. How cystatin F impacts neurologic disease severity following viral infection of the central nervous system (CNS) has not been well characterized and was the focus of this study. We used cystatin F null-mutant mice (Cst7-/-) with a well-established model of murine coronavirus-induced neurologic disease to evaluate the contributions of cystatin F in host defense, demyelination and remyelination. Methods: Wildtype controls and Cst7-/- mice were intracranially (i.c.) infected with a sublethal dose of the neurotropic JHM strain of mouse hepatitis virus (JHMV), with disease progression and survival monitored daily. Immune cell infiltration into the brain and spinal cord was determined by flow cytometry. Spinal cord demyelination was determined by luxol fast blue (LFB) and Hematoxylin/Eosin (H&E) staining and remyelination evaluated by electron microscopy (EM) and calculation of g-ratios. Immune cell infiltration into the CNS and microglia activation were determined by flow cytometry and 10X genomics chromium 3’ single cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq). Results: JHMV-infected Cst7-/- mice were able to control viral replication within the CNS, indicating that cystatin F is not essential for an effective Th1 anti-viral immune response. Infiltration of T cells and monocytes/macrophages into the spinal cords of JHMV-infected Cst7-/- mice was increased compared to infected controls, and this correlated with amplified demyelination and impaired remyelination. Single-cell RNA-seq of CD45+ cells enriched from spinal cords of infected Cst7-/- and control mice at day 21 post-infection (p.i.) revealed enhanced expression of transcripts encoding macrophage chemoattractant, Ccl2, and T cell chemoattractants, Cxcl9 and Cxcl10, combined with elevated expression of interferon-g (Ifng) transcripts and activation markers in CD8+ T cells from Cst7-/- mice compared to controls. Conclusions: Cystatin F is not required for immune-mediated control of JHMV replication within the CNS. However, JHMV-infected Cst7-/- mice exhibited more severe clinical disease associated with increased demyelination and impaired remyelination. The increase in disease severity was associated with elevated expression of macrophage and T cell chemoattractant chemokines, concurrent with increased neuroinflammation. These findings support the theory that one mechanism by which cystatin F affects chronic disease in mice persistently infected with JHMV is through regulating expression of pro-inflammatory molecules that impact neuroinflammation and neurologic disease.

Project description:To evaluate gene expression profiles in intestinal epithelial cells (IEC) after OSM stimulation, we have employed whole genome microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform to identify relevant genes which are potentially of interest to reveal the role of OSM in intestinal inflammation. The most strongly up-regulated genes were SERPINS, which belong to the family of serin peptidase inhibitors with antiprotease activities, most of them serine and cysteine proteases. SERPINB4, SERPINB3 and SERPINA3 were the genes with the strongest up-regulation, also verified in qPCR. OSM-induced SERPIN up-regulation may contribute to anti-apoptotic and proliferative effects of OSM in IEC. HCT116 cells were starved overnight with medium containing 1% FCS after reaching 70% confluency. On the next day, cells were stimulated in quadruplicates with 100 ng/mL OSM or left unstimulated. RNA was isolated 6 hours after stimulation and RNA concentration and purity was measured.

Project description:Our recently generated transgenic mouse model in which Dsg2 is overexpressed in the epidermis observed notable epidermal hyperplasia. We described how Dsg2 altered a number of genes important in epithelial cell growth including the cysteine protease inhibitor cystatin A. We offer a novel pathway of cystatin A regulation involving Dsg2 and a potential crosstalk between Dsg2 and CSTA that modulates cell adhesion.

Project description:Runx1 is highly expressed in osteoblasts, however, its function in osteogenesis is unclear. We generated mesenchymal progenitor-specific (Runx1f/fTwist2-Cre) and osteoblast-specific (Runx1f/fCol1α1-Cre) conditional knockout (Runx1 CKO) mice. The mutant CKO mice with normal skeletal development displayed a severe osteoporosis phenotype at postnatal and adult stages. Runx1 CKO resulted in decreased osteogenesis and increased adipogenesis. RNA-sequencing analysis, Western blot, and qPCR validation of Runx1 CKO samples showed that Runx1 regulates BMP signaling pathway and Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. ChIP assay revealed direct binding of Runx1 to the promoter regions of Bmp7, Alk3, and Atf4, and promoter mapping demonstrated that Runx1 upregulates their promoter activity through the binding regions. Bmp7 overexpression rescued Alk3, Runx2, and Atf4 expression in Runx1-deficient BMSCs. Runx2 expression was decreased while Runx1 was not changed in Alk3 deficient osteoblasts. Atf4 overexpression in Runx1-deficient BMSCs did not rescue expression of Runx1, Bmp7, and Alk3. Smad1/5/8 activity was vitally reduced in Runx1 CKO cells, indicating Runx1 positively regulates the Bmp7/Alk3/Smad1/5/8/Runx2/ATF4 signaling pathway. Notably, Runx1 overexpression in Runx2-/- osteoblasts rescued expression of Atf4, OCN, and ALP to compensate Runx2 function. Runx1 CKO mice at various osteoblast differentiation stages reduced Wnt signaling and caused high expression of C/ebpα and Pparγ and largely increased adipogenesis. Co-culture of Runx1-deficient and wild-type cells demonstrated that Runx1 regulates osteoblast−adipocyte lineage commitment both cell-autonomously and non-autonomously. Notably, Runx1 overexpression rescued bone loss in OVX-induced osteoporosis. This study focused on the role of Runx1 in different cell populations with regards to BMP and Wnt signaling pathways and in the interacting network underlying bone homeostasis as well as adipogenesis, and has provided new insight and advancement of knowledge in skeletal development. Collectively, Runx1 maintains adult bone homeostasis from bone loss though up-regulating Bmp7/Alk3/Smad1/5/8/Runx2/ATF4 and WNT/β-Catenin signaling pathways, and targeting Runx1 potentially leads to novel therapeutics for osteoporosis. Using unbiased genome-wide RNA-seq data from Runx1f/fCol1α1-Cre, Runx1ffTwist2-cre, Runx1f/f;Col2α1-Cre and their control osteoblasts, we examined Runx1-mediated transcriptional targets that could account for osteoblast differentiation defects and increased adipocytes.
