Project description:The female menopause, characterised by reduced estrogen associates with an increased risk of recurrent UTIs caused by uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC). Clinically such infections can be countered by topical vaginal estrogen treatment and the aim of this study was to investigate, in vitro, the effects of topical estrogen treatment on vaginal epithelial responses following challenge with E.coli flagellin used to mimic UPEC. Immortalised vaginal epithelial cells (VK2 E6/E7), modelling the vaginal epithelium were treated with either 4nM 17β-estradiol (E) for seven days, 50ng/ml E.coli flagellin (F) for 12h, or 4nM 17β-estradiol plus 50ng/ml flagellin (E + F(12h)). RNA was analysed by microarray gene profiling using the Illumina HumanHT-12 v 4 Expression Beadchip. Following E + F treatments expression of genes encoding host defence molecules including DEFβ4A, DEFB103A, LCN2 as well as those associated with keratinisation e.g. CNFN and SPRR family genes were significantly enhanced (P<0.05) compared to either E or F treatments alone. Mutation of EREs identified in the DEFβ4 gene promoter abolished the augmented gene expression suggesting estrogen functioned directly through a transcriptional regulatory mechanism involving ESR1/2. Ingenuity pathway analyses also suggested the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-17A to regulate the vaginal host defences during infection. Pre-treating VK2 E6/E7 cells with estrogen (4nM) and challenging with 1L-17A & F (12h) significantly enhanced DEFβ4, DEF103A and S100A7 expression (P<0.05). Origins of vaginal IL-17 in vivo remain unclear, but vaginal biopsy material suggests gd T cells located within the vaginal epithelium. These data suggest that the vaginal antimicrobial response induced by flagellin activation of TLR5 cell signalling is augmented significantly by topical estrogen treatment.

Project description:Identification of genetic/cytogenetic alterations and differentially expressed cellular genes in HPV16 E6, E7 and E6/E7 positive human foreskin keratinocytes Keywords: ordered We used microarrays to identify differentially expressed genes in human foreskin keratinocytes (HFK) transfected with retroviral vectors harboring the human papillomavirus type 16 oncogenes E6, E7, or E6/E7 in comparison to HFK containing the empty vector control pLXSN.

Project description:The infection with high-risk human papillomavirus is aetiologically linked to cervical cancer, the role of miRNAs regulated by virus oncogene in cancer progression remain largely unknown. Here, we screened the differentially expressed miRNAs with miRNA array between virus oncogene e6/e7 silenced and not in HPV16-positive cervical cancer cell lines In the study, we screened the differentially expressed miRNAs with miRNA array (Exiqon, miRCURY LNA microRNA array, 7th gen [hsa, miRBase 18]) between virus oncogene e6/e7 silenced and not in HPV16-positive cervical cancer cell lines to found miRNAs regulated by virus oncogene e6/e7. Biological replicates: 3 control, 3 e6/e7 silenced, independently grown and harvested. four replicates per array.

Project description:The life cycle of human papillomaviruses (HPV) is strictly linked to the differentiation of their natural host cells. The HPV E6 and E7 oncoproteins can delay the normal differentiation program of keratinocytes, however, the exact mechanisms responsible for this have not yet been identified. The goal of this study was to investigate the effects of HPV16 oncoproteins on the expression of genes involved in keratinocyte differentiation. Primary human keratinocytes transduced by LXSN (control) retroviruses or virus vectors expressing HPV16 E6, E7 or E6/E7 genes were subjected to gene expression profiling. The results of microarray analysis showed that HPV 16 E6 and E7 have the capacity to down-regulate the expression of several genes involved in keratinocyte differentiation. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) assays were performed to confirm microarray data. To investigate the effects of the HPV oncoproteins on the promoters of selected keratinocyte differentiation genes, luciferase reporter assays were performed. Our results suggest that the HPV 16 E6 and/or E7 oncogenes are able to down-regulate the expression of several genes involved in keratinocyte differentiation, at least partially by down-regulating their promoter activity. This activity of the HPV oncoproteins may have a role in the productive virus life cycle, and also in virus induced carcinogenesis. Primary human foreskin keratinocytes were transduced by retrovirus vectors containing HPV 16 E6, E7, E6/E7 or the control vector LXSN. The global gene expression patterns of transduced keratinocytes were analyzed on Affymetrix microarrays

Project description:Human papillomavirus (HPV) genome integration into the host genome, blocking E2 expression and leading to overexpression of E6 and E7 viral oncogenes, is considered a major step in cervical cancer development. In high-risk HPVs, E6 and E7 oncogenes are expressed as a bicistronic pre-mRNA, with alternative splicing producing the ultimate mRNAs required for E6 and E7 translation. Given the number of alternative donor and acceptor splicing sites, ten E6/E7 different alternative transcripts might be formed for HPV16 and three for HPV18, although only six isoforms have been previously reported for HPV16. In the present work, we employ high-throughput sequencing of invasive cervical cancer transcriptome (RNA-Seq) to characterize the expression of the HPV genome in 24 invasive cervical cancers associated with HPV16 and HPV18 single infections. Based on high-resolution transcriptional maps, we herein report three viral gene expression patterns which might be associated with the presence of the viral genome in episomal and/or integrated stages. Alternative mRNAs splicing isoforms coding for E6 and E7 oncoproteins were characterized and quantified, and two novel isoforms were identified. Three major isoforms (E6*I, E6*II, and E6+E7) were detected for HPV16 and two for HPV18 (E6*I and E6+E7). Minor transcript isoforms, including the novel ones, were very rare in some tumor samples or were not detected. Our data suggested that minor transcript isoforms of E6/E7 do not play a relevant role in cervical cancer.

Project description:The human papillomavirus virus (HPV) is a proven cause of most human cervical cancers, and might have a role in other malignancies including vulva, skin, oesophagus, head and neck cancer. HPV has also been speculated to have a role in the pathogenesis of lung cancer. To validate the hypothesis of HPV involvement in small cell lung cancer pathogenesis we performed gene expression profile of transgenic mouse model of SCLC induced by HPV-16 E6/E7 oncoproteins. Gene expression profile of SCLC has been performed using Agilent whole mouse genome (4x44k) representing ~ 41000 genes and mouse transcripts. Samples were obtained from two HPV16-E6/E7 transgenic mouse model and from littermateM-bM-^@M-^Ys normal lung.

Project description:Comparative analysis of RNA expression profiles of keratinocytes expressing E6/E7 from the different beta-3, with the RNA profiles of HPV16 and HPV38 E6/E7 HFKs reveals that HPV115 is the more divergent from the HR-mucosal type. Moreover beta-3 HPV 49, 75 and 76 E6/E7 HFKs show altered expression of genes involved in cell cycle regulation and DNA damage response which are also deregulated by expression of E6/E7 of HPV16.
