Project description:Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) rapidly produce type I interferon (IFN-I) in response to viruses and are essential for antiviral immune responses. Although related to classical dendritic cells (cDCs) in their development and expression profile, pDCs possess many distinct features. Unlike cDCs, pDCs develop in the bone marrow (BM) and emerge into peripheral lymphoid organs and tissues as fully differentiated cells. We now report that pDCs specifically express Runx2, a Runt family transcription factor that is essential for bone development. Runx2-deficient murine pDCs developed normally in the BM but were greatly reduced in the periphery. The defect was cell-intrinsic and was associated with the retention of mature Ly49Q+ pDCs in the BM. Runx2 was required for the expression of several pDC-enriched genes including chemokine receptors Ccr2 and Ccr5. Mature pDCs expressed high levels of Ccr5 at the surface, and Ccr5-deficient pDCs in a competitive setting were reduced in the periphery relative to the BM. Thus, Runx2 is required for the emergence of mature BM pDCs into the periphery, in a process that is partially dependent on Ccr5. These results establish Runx2 as a lineage-specific regulator of immune system development. Total BM cells were isolated from Runx2-/- and wildtype fetal liver chimeras 2 months post-reconstitution. BM cells were stained with antibodies against surface markers CD11b, CD11c, BST2, and B220. CD11b- BST2+ B220+ pDCs were purified by flow cytometry on a BD FACS Aria. RNA was purified immediately and prepared for microarray analysis using the Ambion WT labeling kit. Expression was analyzed using Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 ST.

Project description:Mammalian genomes encode a family of 12 proteins that contain a CXXC zinc finger domain. These domains are known to bind to unmethylated DNA sequences rich in CpG dinucleotides. Most members of this family are large multi-domain proteins that function in the control of DNA methylation and histone methylation patterns. CXXC5 is a smaller member of the family, along with its closest homologue CXXC4. These two proteins lack known catalytic domains. Here we have characterized CXXC5 in mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells. We show that CXXC5 is a nuclear protein that interacts with 5-methylcytosine oxidases (TET proteins). Removal of CXXC5 from ES cells leads to very few changes in gene expression. CXXC5 extensively colocalizes with TET1 and TET2 at CpG islands. CXXC5 inactivation leads to a substantial reduction of DNA methylation levels that affects all genomic compartments including genic and intergenic regions and CpG island shores. No hypermethylation of CpG islands was observed. We propose a model in which CXXC5 serves as an anchor for TET proteins at CpG islands. In the absence of CXXC5, the 5-methylcytosine oxidases become dislodged from CpG islands and are enabled to induce genome-scale DNA demethylation. Thus, CXXC5 serves as a stabilizer of DNA methylation patterns.

Project description:Chromatin immunoprecipitation DNA-sequencing (ChIP-seq) for CXXC5,CUL4B as well as MTA1 in MCF-7 cells.The pathophysiological function of the CXXC family-member CXXC5 remains to be explored. Here we report that CXXC5 is physically associated with the CRL4B complex and the NuRD complex. Genome-wide investigation of transcriptional targets revealed that the CXXC5/CRL4B/NuRD complex represses a panel of genes including TSC1 that are critically involved in cell growth and the regulation of the mTOR pathway, leading to activation of PD-L1. Intriguingly, CXXC5 expression was increased after stimulation with vitamin B2, whereas vitamin D treatment was accompanied by decreased expression of CXXC5. We demonstrated that the CXXC5-CRL4B-NuRD complex promotes cancer cell proliferation. Elevation of CXXC5, CUL4B, and MTA1 expression during cancer progression corresponded to diminished TSC1 expression, and high levels of CXXC5, CUL4B, and MTA1 strongly correlated with higher histological grades and poor prognosis. We further identified that CXXC5 is bimodally regulated by different kinds of vitamins. Our study revealed that CXXC5-mediated TSC1 suppression activates the mTOR pathway, reduces autophagic cell death, induces PD-L1-mediated immune suppression and results in tumor development, providing a possible mechanistic insight into the pathophysiological function of CXXC5.

Project description:Robust type I interferon (IFN-alpha/beta) production in plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) is critical for anti-viral immunity. Here we demonstrated a role for the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway in regulating interferon production by pDCs. Inhibition of mTOR or the ‘downstream’ mediators of mTOR p70S6K1,2 kinases during pDC activation via Toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9) blocked the interaction of TLR9 with the adaptor MyD88 and the subsequent activation of interferon response factor 7 (IRF7), resulting in impaired IFN-alpha production. Microarray analysis confirmed that inhibition of mTOR by the immunosuppressive drug rapamycin suppressed anti-viral and anti-inflammatory gene expression. Consistent with this, targeting rapamycin-encapsulated microparticles to antigen-presenting cells in vivo resulted in a diminution of IFN-alpha production in response to CpG DNA or the yellow fever vaccine virus strain 17D. Thus, mTOR signaling plays a critical role in TLR-mediated IFN-alpha responses by pDCs. CpGA is a TLR9 agonist. pDCs were isolated from mouse spleen or human PBMC. The effect of rapamycin on pDCs IFN-alpha production as induced by TLR ligands was studied. The mechanism of rapamycin effect was dissected in RAW cell line.

Project description:Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) can be activated by the endosomal TLRs, and contribute to the pathogenesis of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) by producing type I IFNs. Thus, blocking TLR-mediated pDC activation may represent a useful approach for the treatment of SLE. In an attempt to identify a therapeutic target for blocking TLR signaling in pDCs, we investigated the contribution of Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk) to the activation of pDCs by TLR7 and TLR9 stimulation by using a selective Btk inhibitor RN486. Stimulation of TLR7 and 9 with their respective agonist, namely, gardiquimod and type A CpG ODN2216, resulted in the activation of human pDCs, as demonstrated by the expression of activation markers (CD69, CD40, and CD86), elevated production of IFN-alpha and other inflammatory cytokines, as well as up-regulation of numerous genes including IFN-alpha-inducible genes and activation of interferon regulatory factor 7 (IRF7) and NF-kB. RN486 inhibited all of these events induced by TLR9, but not TLR7 stimulation, with a nanomolar potency for inhibiting type A CpG ODN2216-mediated production of cytokines (e.g., IC50=386 nM for inhibiting IFN-alpha). Our data reveal Btk as an important regulatory enzyme in the TLR9 pathway, and a potential therapeutic target for SLE and other TLR-driven diseases. pDCs from healthy donors (n=4) were treated with gardiquimod (TLR7 agonist) or ODN 2216 (TLR9 agonist) with or without BTK inhibitor for 3 hours.

Project description:The aim of this work was to elucidate the role of the transcription factor CXXC5 in glioblastoma and study its involvement in the regulation of TGFβ and BMP target genes in this context. To this end we used the patient derived glioblastoma stem cells U3034MG that were either transfected with siRNA targeting CXXC5 or with a non-targeting pool (as control) followed by stimulation with either 5ng/ml TGFβ or 30ng/ml BMP7 for 24 h. Then we analysed how silencing CXXC5 affects the expression of TGFβ and/or BMP7 target genes using Ion torrent AmpliseqTM.
