Project description:Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) ranges from steatosis to nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), that often progresses to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) through a largely undefined mechanism. NASH and HCC both depend on inflammatory signaling whose master regulator is the NFκB transcription factor family, activated by canonical and non-canonical pathways. Here, we investigated non-canonical NFκB-inducing kinase (NIK/MAP3K14) in metabolic NASH, NASH to HCC transition as well as in DEN-induced HCC. We revealed that hepatocyte-specific NIK deficiency (NIKLKO) ameliorated metabolic NASH complications and reduced hepatocarcinogenesis however, independent of its role in NFB pathway. Instead, hepatic NIK attenuated hepatoprotective JAK2/STAT5 signaling that is a prerequisite for NASH and NASH to HCC progression in mice and humans. Our data suggest NIK-mediated inhibitory JAK2 phosphorylation at serine 633 that might be amenable for future therapeutic interventions in patients.

Project description:Cellular signal transduction is governed by multiple feedback mechanisms to elicit robust cellular decisions. We combined mathematical modeling and extensive time-resolved data sets in primary erythroid progenitor cells and dissected the roles of the two transcriptional feedback regulators of the SOCS family, CIS and SOCS3 in JAK2/STAT5 signaling. Our model revealed that both feedbacks are most effective at different ligand concentration ranges. To identify the relevant transcriptional feedback regulators that are involved in attenuation of Epo-induced JAK2-STAT5 signaling in addition to CIS, we performed a time-resolved genome-wide expression profiling of murine erythroid progenitor cells at the colony forming unit erythroid (CFU-E) stage up to 24 and 7 hours after EPO stimulation and in control, repectively. The analysis identified SOCS3 as the only further de novo regulated gene upon Epo-induced JAK2-STAT5 signaling. From subsequent mathematical modeling, we calculated the STAT5 response in previously unobserved Epo concentrations, which provided a quantitative link between cell survival and the integrated response of STAT5 in the nucleus. In conclusion, our combined modeling approach revealed novel insights into the orchestrated action of feedback control to regulate STAT5-mediated survival decisions over a broad range of ligand concentrations. Freshly sorted CFU-E cells were starved for 1 h in Panserin 401 supplemented with BSA and 50 µM β-Mercaptoethanol. Subsequently, cells were stimulated with 0.5 U/ml Epo or left untreated and RNA was extracted at different time points (0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,14,19,24 hrs after Epo stimulation and at 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7 hrs without Epo treatment) using the RNeasy Mini Plus Kit (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany).

Project description:While PAX5 is an important tumor suppressor in B-ALL, it is also involved in oncogenic translocations coding for PAX5 fusion proteins. PAX5-JAK2 encodes a protein consisting of the PAX5 DNA-binding region fused to the constitutively active JAK2 kinase domain. Here, we studied the oncogenic function of PAX5-JAK2 in a mouse model expressing it from the endogenous Pax5 locus. The Pax5Jak2/+ mice rapidly developed an aggressive B-ALL in the absence of another cooperating mutation. The DNA-binding function and kinase activity of Pax5-Jak2, as well as IL-7 signaling, all contributed to leukemia development. Interestingly, all Pax5Jak2/+ tumors lost the wild-type Pax5 allele, allowing efficient DNA binding of Pax5-Jak2. While we could not find evidence for a nuclear role of Pax5-Jak2 as an epigenetic regulator, active phosphorylated Stat5 was present at a high level in Pax5Jak2/+ B-ALL tumors, consistent with increased expression of Stat5 target genes. Together, these data identified Pax5-Jak2 as an important nuclear driver of leukemia formation by maintaining phosphorylated Stat5 levels in the nucleus.

Project description:Growth hormone signaling in hepatocytes is fundamentally important. Disruptions in this pathway have led to fatty liver and other metabolic abnormalities. Growth hormone signals through the JAK2/STAT5 pathway. Mice with hepatocyte specific deletion of STAT5 were previously shown to develop fatty liver. Our aim in this study was to determine the effect of deleting JAK2 in hepatocytes on liver gene expression. To do so, we generated animals with hepatocyte specific deletion of JAK2. Hepatocyte-specific JAK2-deficient mice (JAK2L) were generated by mating floxed JAK2 mice (in a mixed (C57Bl/6:129Sv) background) to mice carrying an Alb promoter-regulated Cre transgene on a 100% C57Bl/6 background purchased from the Jackson Labs. Livers were harvested from 8 week old animals for RNA extraction and hybridization.

Project description:Our findings establish NIK as a pivotal regulator of T cell metabolism in anti-tumor immunity and highlight a posttranslational mechanism of metabolic regulation involving the G6PD-NADPH redox system. CoIP assays revealed a strong physical interaction between NIK and G6PD in both T cells and transiently transfected 293 cells, suggesting G6PD to be a direct target of NIK. Using a phosphoprotein gel analysis approach, we demonstrated that NIK expression stimulated G6PD phosphorylation. To further study the mechanism, we performed mass spectrometry identify phosphorylation sites of G6PD stimulated by NIK

Project description:SPAG9-JAK2 is a novel fusion gene identified in a pediatric patient with Philadelphia chromosome-like acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph-like ALL). In this study, we performed functional analysis of the SPAG9-JAK2 fusion to establish molecular targeted therapy. Ba/F3 cells expressing SPAG9-JAK2 generated by retroviral transduction (Ba/F3-SPAG9-JAK2), proliferated in the absence of IL-3, and exhibited constitutive phosphorylation of the tyrosine residues in the JAK2 kinase domain of the fusion protein and STAT3/STAT5. Mutation of tyrosine residues in the JAK2 kinase domain (SPAG9-JAK2 mut) abolished IL-3 independence, but had no influence on STAT3/STAT5 phosphorylation levels. Gene expression analysis revealed that Stat1 was significantly up-regulated in Ba/F3-SPAG9-JAK2 cells. STAT1 was also phosphorylated in Ba/F3-SPAG9-JAK2 but not SPAG9-JAK2 mut cells, suggesting that STAT1 is key for SPAG9-JAK2-mediated cell proliferation. Consistently, STAT1 induced expression of the anti-apoptotic proteins, BCL-2 and MCL-1, as did SPAG9-JAK2, but not SPAG9-JAK2 mut. Ruxolitinib abrogated Ba/F3-SPAG9-JAK2-mediated proliferation in vitro, but was insufficient in vivo. Venetoclax (a BCL-2 inhibitor) or AZD5991 (an MCL-1 inhibitor) enhanced the effects of ruxolitinib on Ba/F3-SPAG9-JAK2 in vitro. These findings suggest that activation of the JAK2-STAT1-BCL-2/MCL-1 axis contributes to SPAG9-JAK2-related aberrant growth promotion. BCL-2 or MCL-1 inhibition is a potential therapeutic option for B-ALL with SPAG9-JAK2 fusion.
