Project description:The aim of this study is to compare gene expression differences between human lymphatic endothelial cells after they have been treated with siRNA or with different CD73-blocking antibodies. In addition also the gene expression differences after antibody-blocking in human blood endothelial cells are determined.

Project description:Afferent lymphatic vessels bring antigens and diverse populations of leukocytes to draining lymph nodes, but efferent lymphatics allow only lymphocytes to leave the nodes. Despite fundamental importance of afferent vs. efferent lymphatics in immune response and cancer spread, molecular characteristics of these different arms of the lymphatic vasculature are largely unknown. In this work we report marked transcriptional differences between afferent and efferent lymphatic endothelial cells.

Project description:CD73 is an important ectoenzyme responsible for the production of extracellular adenosine. It is involved in regulating inflammatory responses and cell migration and is overexpressed in various cancers. The functions of CD73 in blood endothelial cells are understood in detail, but its role on afferent lymphatics remains unknown. Moreover, anti-CD73 antibodies are now used in multiple clinical cancer trials, but their effects on different endothelial cell types have not been studied. This study reveals that a previously unknown role of CD73 on afferent lymphatics is to dampen immune responses. Knocking it out or suppressing it by siRNA leads to the upregulation of inflammation-associated genes on lymphatic endothelial cells and a more pro-inflammatory phenotype of interacting dendritic cells in vitro and in vivo. In striking contrast, anti-CD73 antibodies had only negligible effects on the gene expression of lymphatic- and blood-endothelial cells. Our data thus reveal new functions of lymphatic CD73 and indicate a low likelihood of endothelial cell-related adverse effects by CD73 targeting therapeutic antibodies.

Despite fundamental importance of afferent vs. efferent lymphatics in immune response and cancer spread, molecular characteristics of these different arms of the lymphatic vasculature are largely unknown. In this work we report marked transcriptional differences between afferent and efferent lymphatic endothelial cells. Mouse inguinal, axillary, and brachial lymphnodes were collected and cryomolds prepared for laser-capture microdissection. Frozen sections were stained with various cell marker antibodies and micro-dissection performed to collect lymphatic endothelial cells. Total RNA was extracted from the cells and used in microarray analysis. Alternatively, popliteal, caudal, lumbar, inguinal, mesenteric, renal, axillary, brachial, deep and superficial cervical LN were enzymatically digested, the cells stained, and FACs sorted before RNA isolation.

Project description:CD73 marks cells with increased mesenchymal morphologies and phenotypes. To understand the transcriptional differences in CD73+ and - cells, we performed bulk RNA-seq on the CD73 sorted cells. In this study, we investigated if and how transcriptional heterogeneity of EwS cells contributes to heterogeneity of tumor phenotypes in vivo. Digital spatial profiling and human whole transcriptome analysis interrogated transcriptomic heterogeneity in EwS CHLA10 cell line xenografts.

Project description:The exit of antigen-presenting cells (APC) and lymphocytes from inflamed skin to afferent lymph is vital for the initiation and maintenance of dermal immune responses. How such exit is achieved and how cells transmigrate the distinct endothelium of lymphatic vessels is however unknown. Here we show that inflammatory cytokines trigger activation of dermal lymphatic endothelial cells (LEC) leading to expression of the key leukocyte adhesion receptors ICAM-1, VCAM-1 and E-selectin, as well as a discrete panel of chemokines and other potential regulators of leukocyte transmigration. Furthermore, we show that both ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 are induced in the dermal lymphatic vessels of mice exposed to skin contact hypersensitivity where they mediate lymph node trafficking of DC via afferent lymphatics. Lastly, we show that TNF_-stimulates both DC adhesion and transmigration of dermal LEC monolayers in vitro and that the process is efficiently inhibited by ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 adhesion-blocking mAbs. These results reveal a CAM-mediated mechanism for recruiting leukocytes to the lymph nodes in inflammation and highlight the process of lymphatic transmigration as a potential new target for anti-inflammatory therapy. Experiment Overall Design: Global gene expression profile of normal dermal lymphatic endothelial cells cultured in media alone (no TNF) compared to that of normal dermal lymphatic endothelial cells stimulated with TNFalpha, 1 ng/ml for 48h.Triplicate biological samples were analyzed from human lymphatic endothelial cells (3 x controls; 3 x TNF treated) and a single sample analyzed from mouse lymphatic endothelial cells (1 x controls; 1 x TNF treated).

Project description:We performed RNA-seq to evaluated the transcriptional changes of CD73 knockdown in RD cells, a Fusion Negative Rhabdomyosarcoma cell line. We used a Dox-inducible shRNA targetting the 3'UTR of CD73 to knockdown this gene. Cells with No-Dox were used as control.

Project description:MSCs are a heterogeneous population and the specific population of MSCs may exhibit a selective ability for tissue repair. The aim of our research was to adapt the CD73+ subgroup of adipose derived MSCs (AD-MSCs) for the therapy of myocardial infarction (MI). Our results revealed that CD73+ AD-MSCs played more effective role in the acceleration function of cardiac recovery by promoting angiogenesis in a rat model of MI compared to mixed AD-MSCs and CD73- AD-MSCs. Microarray analysis shows differences between CD73+ and CD73- AD-MSCs when transcription profile of these two subgroups were compared, especially in VEGF pathway.

Project description:The molecular mechanisms underlying exceptional radioresistance in pancreatic cancer remain elusive. In the present study, we established a stable radioresistant pancreatic cancer cell line MIA PaCa-2-R by exposing the parental MIA PaCa-2 cells to fractionated ionizing radiation (IR). Systematic proteomics and bioinformatics comparison of protein expression in MIA PaCa-2 and MIA PaCa-2-R cells revealed that several growth factor- and cytokine-mediated pathways, including the OSM/STAT3, PI3K/AKT and MAPK/ERK pathways, were activated in the radioresistant cells, leading to enhanced cell migration, invasion and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), and inhibition of apoptosis. We focused functional analysis on one of the most upregulated proteins in the radioresistant cells, CD73, which is a cell surface protein that is overexpressed in a variety types of cancer. Ectopic overexpression of CD73 in the parent cells resulted in radioresistance and conferred resistance to IR-induced apoptosis. Knockdown of CD73 resensitized the radioresistant cells to IR and IR-induced apoptosis. The effect of CD73 on radioresistance and apoptosis is independent of the enzymatic activity of CD73. Further studies suggest that CD73 confers acquired radioresistance in pancreatic cancer cells at least in part through inactivating proapoptotic protein BAD via phosphorylation of BAD at Ser-136. Furthermore, we found that knockdown of CD73 in the radioresistant cells alone reverted the gene expression and phenotype of the radioresistant cells from those of mesenchymal-like cells to the ones of epithelial cells, demonstrating that CD73 upregulation is required for maintaining EMT in the radioresistant cells. Our results support the notion that the enhanced growth factor/cytokine signaling that promotes epithelial-mesenchymal plasticity, and acquisition of cancer stem-like cell properties contributes to acquired radioresistance in the residual surviving cells after fractionated irradiation, and that CD73 is a novel downstream factor of those enhanced signaling and acts to confers acquired radioresistance and maintains EMT in the radioresistant pancreatic cancer cells.
