Project description:Tumor epithelial cells develop within a microenvironment consisting of extracellular matrix, growth factors, and cytokines produced by non-epithelial stromal cells. In response to paracrine signals from tumor epithelia, stromal cells modify the microenvironment to promote tumor growth and metastasis. Here, we identify interleukin (IL)-33 as an epithelial cell-derived regulator of stromal cell activation and mediator of intestinal polyposis. IL-33 expression was elevated in the tumors and serum of colorectal cancer patients and induced in the adenomatous polyps of ApcMin/+ mutant mice. Genetic and antibody suppression of IL-33 signaling in ApcMin/+ mice inhibited proliferation, induced apoptosis, and suppressed angiogenesis in polyps, which reduced both tumor number and size. In ApcMin/+ polyps, IL-33 expression localized to tumor epithelial cells and expression of the IL-33 receptor, IL1RL1, associated with two stromal cell types, namely subepithelial myofibroblasts (SEMFs) and mast cells, whose activation was previously associated with polyposis. In vitro IL-33 stimulation of human SEMFs induced the expression of extracellular matrix components and growth factors associated with intestinal tumor progression. IL-33 deficiency reduced mast cell accumulation in ApcMin/+ polyps and expression of mast cell-derived proteases and cytokines known to promote polyposis. Together, our results suggest that IL-33 is a tumor epithelial cell-derived paracrine signal that promotes polyposis through the coordinated activation of stromal cells and the formation of a reactive stroma microenvironment. Six T-75 flasks of CCD-18Co cells were grown to 80% confluency; three were treated with rhIL-33, three were given vehicle control; cells were trypsinized and split in two--half of each flask used for sequencing and half for qPCR validation post-sequencing

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of Homo sapiens inflammatory skin diseases (whole skin biospies): Psoriasis (Pso), vs Atopic Dermatitis (AD) vs Lichen planus (Li), vs Contact Eczema (KE), vs Healthy control (KO) In recent years, different genes and proteins have been highlighted as potential biomarkers for psoriasis, one of the most common inflammatory skin diseases worldwide. However, most of these markers are not psoriasis-specific but also found in other inflammatory disorders. We performed an unsupervised cluster analysis of gene expression profiles in 150 psoriasis patients and other inflammatory skin diseases (atopic dermatitis, lichen planus, contact eczema, and healthy controls). We identified a cluster of IL-17/TNFα-associated genes specifically expressed in psoriasis, among which IL-36γ was the most outstanding marker. In subsequent immunohistological analyses IL-36γ was confirmed to be expressed in psoriasis lesions only. IL-36γ peripheral blood serum levels were found to be closely associated with disease activity, and they decreased after anti-TNFα-treatment. Furthermore, IL-36γ immunohistochemistry was found to be a helpful marker in the histological differential diagnosis between psoriasis and eczema in diagnostically challenging cases. These features highlight IL-36γ as a valuable biomarker in psoriasis patients, both for diagnostic purposes and measurement of disease activity during the clinical course. Furthermore, IL-36γ might also provide a future drug target, due to its potential amplifier role in TNFα- and IL-17 pathways in psoriatic skin inflammation.

Project description:Adipose tissue (AT) contains mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) in stages of commitment to becoming specialized tissue cells, including adipocytes and fibroblasts, and immune cells which support tissue homeostasis. How MSC and immune cells interact during infection is poorly understood. We show that during intestinal helminth infection MSC in mesenteric AT (mAT) become enriched in non-differentiated progenitor cells. This is accompanied by MSC-intrinsic metabolic reprogramming supporting increased secretion of extracellular matrix (ECM), IL-33, and TSLP. In parallel, Th2 resident memory (Th2RM) cells populate the mAT and persist after infection is resolved. These cells express Areg, TGFβ and IL-5, and are necessary to promote infection induced changes within mAT, including MSC reprogramming and tissue eosinophilia. In turn, IL-33 and TSLP from MSC facilitate Th2RM activation and maintenance. Our findings link Th2RM cells to mAT remodeling during intestinal infection, underscoring the reciprocal dependence of stroma and resident immune cells for lasting tissue immunity.

Project description:Kynureninase is a member of a large family of catalytically diverse but structurally homologous pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP) dependent enzymes known as the aspartate aminotransferase superfamily or alpha-family. The Homo sapiens and other eukaryotic constitutive kynureninases preferentially catalyze the hydrolytic cleavage of 3-hydroxy-l-kynurenine to produce 3-hydroxyanthranilate and l-alanine, while l-kynurenine is the substrate of many prokaryotic inducible kynureninases. The human enzyme was cloned with an N-terminal hexahistidine tag, expressed, and purified from a bacterial expression system using Ni metal ion affinity chromatography. Kinetic characterization of the recombinant enzyme reveals classic Michaelis-Menten behavior, with a Km of 28.3 +/- 1.9 microM and a specific activity of 1.75 micromol min-1 mg-1 for 3-hydroxy-dl-kynurenine. Crystals of recombinant kynureninase that diffracted to 2.0 A were obtained, and the atomic structure of the PLP-bound holoenzyme was determined by molecular replacement using the Pseudomonas fluorescens kynureninase structure (PDB entry 1qz9) as the phasing model. A structural superposition with the P. fluorescens kynureninase revealed that these two structures resemble the "open" and "closed" conformations of aspartate aminotransferase. The comparison illustrates the dynamic nature of these proteins' small domains and reveals a role for Arg-434 similar to its role in other AAT alpha-family members. Docking of 3-hydroxy-l-kynurenine into the human kynureninase active site suggests that Asn-333 and His-102 are involved in substrate binding and molecular discrimination between inducible and constitutive kynureninase substrates.

Project description:Molecular mechanisms underlying the cancer stroma in metastasis is largely unknown. Here we show that cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) produce high levels of IL-33 that acted on tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) to induce the M1 to M2 transition. Genome profiling of metastasis-related genes in the IL-33-stimulated TAMs showed a > 200-fold increase of metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9). Signaling analysis demonstrated the IL-33-ST2-NFkB-MMP9-laminin pathway that mediates cancer metastasis. In mouse and human fibroblast-rich pancreatic cancers, genetic deletion of IL-33, ST2 and MMP9 markedly blocked metastasis. Pharmacological inhibition of NFkB and MMP9 also blocked cancer metastasis. Deletion of IL-33, ST2 and MMP9 restored laminin, a key basement membrane component associated to tumor microvessels. Together, our data provide novel mechanistic insights on the IL-33-NFkB-MMP9-laminin axis that mediates the CAF-TAM-committed cancer metastasis. Thus, targeting the CAF-TAM-vessel interaction provides an outstanding therapeutic opportunity for cancer treatment.

Project description:Interleukin-25 and group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) defend the host against intestinal helminth infection, and are associated with inappropriate allergic reactions. Recently, it was reported that IL-33-activated ILC2s augment protective tissue-specific pancreatic cancer immunity. Here we show a diametrically opposite role for intestinal IL-25-activated ILC2s where they create an innate cancer-permissive microenvironment. Colorectal cancer (CRC) patients with higher tumor IL25 expression have reduced survival, and increased IL-25 Rexpressing tumor-resident ILC2s and myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) associated with impaired anti-tumor responses. Ablation of IL-25-signalling reduced tumors, virtually doubling life-expectancy in an Apc-mutation-driven model of spontaneous intestinal tumorigenesis. Mechanistically, IL-25 promotes tumor ILC2s, which sustain MDSCs to suppress anti-tumor immunity. Therapeutic blockade of IL-25-signalling decreased ILC2s, MDSCs and adenoma/adenocarcinoma, while increasing anti-tumor IFNg and adaptive T cell immunity. Thus, the roles of innate epithelium-derived cytokines IL-25 and IL-33, and ILC2s in cancer cannot be generalized, and instead offer differential pathways for therapeutic intervention.

Project description:Trichinella spiralis is a highly destructive parasitic nematode that invades and destroys intestinal epithelial cells, injures many different tissues during its migratory phase, and occupies and transforms myotubes during the final phase of its life cycle. Mice deficient in the IL-1 family receptor for the DAMP, IL-33 (called ST2), display reduced intestinal Th2 responses and impaired mast cell activation. IL-33 was constitutively expressed in intestinal epithelial cells, where it became concentrated in nuclei within 2 days of infection. Nuclear localization was an innate response to infection that occurred in intestinal regions where worms were actively migrating. We isolated intestinal epithelial cells from uninfected mice (cytoplasmic IL-33) and mice at 2 days post-infection (nuclear IL-33) to compare global expression profiles. We used microarrays to characterize the global gene expression that occurs in intestinal epithelial cells following T. spiralis-induced nuclear translocation of IL-33. Intestinal epithelial cells were isolated from Rag2-/- mice at day zero (uninfected) or two days post-infection with T. ispiralis for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.

Project description:As the evolution of miRNA genes has been found to be one of the important factors in formation of the modern type of man, we performed a comparative analysis of the evolution of miRNA genes in two archaic hominines, Homo sapiens neanderthalensis and Homo sapiens denisova, and elucidated the expression of their target mRNAs in bain.A comparative analysis of the genomes of primates, including species in the genus Homo, identified a group of miRNA genes having fixed substitutions with important implications for the evolution of Homo sapiens neanderthalensis and Homo sapiens denisova. The mRNAs targeted by miRNAs with mutations specific for Homo sapiens denisova exhibited enhanced expression during postnatal brain development in modern humans. By contrast, the expression of mRNAs targeted by miRNAs bearing variations specific for Homo sapiens neanderthalensis was shown to be enhanced in prenatal brain development.Our results highlight the importance of changes in miRNA gene sequences in the course of Homo sapiens denisova and Homo sapiens neanderthalensis evolution. The genetic alterations of miRNAs regulating the spatiotemporal expression of multiple genes in the prenatal and postnatal brain may contribute to the progressive evolution of brain function, which is consistent with the observations of fine technical and typological properties of tools and decorative items reported from archaeological Denisovan sites. The data also suggest that differential spatial-temporal regulation of gene products promoted by the subspecies-specific mutations in the miRNA genes might have occurred in the brains of Homo sapiens denisova and Homo sapiens neanderthalensis, potentially contributing to the cultural differences between these two archaic hominines.
