Mechanosensitive Membrane Domains Regulate Calcium Entry in Arterial Endothelial Cells to Protect Against Inflammation

Project description:Endothelial cells (ECs) in the descending aorta are exposed to high laminar shear stress, which supports an anti-inflammatory phenotype. High laminar shear stress also supports flow-aligned cell elongation and front-rear polarity, but whether these are required for the anti-inflammatory phenotype is unclear. Here, we show that Caveolin-1-rich microdomains polarize to the downstream end of ECs exposed to continuous high laminar flow. These microdomains are characterized by high membrane rigidity, filamentous actin (F-actin), and raft-associated lipids. Transient receptor potential vanilloid-type 4 (Trpv4) ion channels are ubiquitously expressed on the plasma membrane but mediate localized Ca2+ entry only at these microdomains where they physically interact with clustered Caveolin-1. The resultant focal Ca2+ bursts activate endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) within the confines of these domains. Importantly, we find that signaling at these domains requires both cell body elongation and sustained flow. Finally, Trpv4 signaling at these domains is necessary and sufficient to suppress inflammatory gene expression, and ectopic activation of Trpv4 channels ameliorates the inflammatory response to stimuli both in vitro and in vivo. Our work reveals a novel polarized mechanosensitive signaling hub that dampens inflammatory gene expression in arterial ECs.

Differential regulation of membrane potential during store-operated calcium entry in neutrophil subsets

Project description:Calcium signals are initiated in immune cells by the process of store-operated calcium entry (SOCE), where receptor activation triggers transient calcium release from the endoplasmic reticulum, followed by opening of plasma membrane calcium-release activated calcium (CRAC) channels. ORAI1, ORAI2 and ORAI3 are known to comprise the CRAC channel, however the contributions of individual isoforms to neutrophil function is not well understood. Here we show that loss of ORAI1 partially decreases calcium influx while loss of both ORAI1 and ORAI2 completely abolishes store-operated calcium entry. In other immune cell types, loss of ORAI2 enhances SOCE. In contrast, we find that ORAI2-deficient neutrophils display decreased calcium influx, which is correlated with measurable differences in regulation of neutrophil membrane potential via KCa3.1. Decreased SOCE in ORAI1-, ORAI2- and ORAI1/2-deficient neutrophils impairs multiple neutrophil functions including phagocytosis, degranulation, leukotriene and ROS production, rendering ORAI1/2-deficient mice highly susceptible to staphylococcal infection. This study demonstrates that ORAI1 and ORAI2 are the primary components of the neutrophil CRAC channel and identifies novel subpopulations of neutrophils where cell membrane potential functions as a rheostat to modulate the SOCE response. These findings have implications for new mechanisms that modulate neutrophil function during infection, acute and chronic inflammatory conditions, and cancer.

SMAD4 maintains the Fluid Shear Stress set point to protect against Arterial-Venous Malformations

Project description:Vascular networks form, remodel and mature under the influence of both fluid shear stress (FSS) and soluble factors. Physiological FSS promotes and maintains vascular stability via synergy with Bone Morphogenic Protein 9 (BMP9) and BMP10. Conversely, mutation of the BMP receptors ALK1, Endoglin or the downstream effector SMAD4 leads to Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia (HHT), characterized by fragile and leaky arterial-venous malformations (AVMs). But how endothelial cells (EC) integrate FSS and BMP signals in vascular development and homeostasis, and how mutations give rise to vascular malformations is not well understood. Here, we aimed to elucidate the mechanism of synergy between fluid shear stress and SMAD signaling in vascular stability and its failure in HHT. We have now found that loss of Smad4 increases ECs’ sensitivity to flow by lowering the FSS set point with resulting AVMs exhibiting features of excessive flow-mediated morphological responses. Mechanistically, loss of Smad4 disinhibits flow-mediated Klf4-Tie2-PI3K/Akt signaling leading to increased EC proliferation and loss of arterial identity due to Klf4-mediated repression of cyclin dependent Kinase (CDK) inhibitors, CDKN2A and CDKN2B. Thus, AVMs caused by Smad4 deletion are characterized by chronic high flow remodeling with excessive EC proliferation and loss of arterial identity as triggering events.

Impact of Protect Your Colon on CRC Screening

Project description:The purpose of the research is to assess the impact of Protect Your Colon, a colorectal cancer (CRC) screening decision aid, on patients’ CRC screening behaviors. The Investigators hypothesize that Protect Your Colon, through optimizing shared decision making, will lead to selection of a test that accurately matches patients’ values and increase CRC screening uptake. To test this hypothesis, the investigators will conduct a pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT) to assess if provision of Protect Your Colon improves communication on CRC screening, intent to complete screening, and ultimately uptake of screening vs. usual care.
