Project description:Due to its rapid onset and high mortality, acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is considered as one of the most fatal diseases among heart diseases. Therefore, exploring its potential pathogenesis and developing effective treatment approaches for AMI have become a research hotspot in the medical community. In the present study, clinical blood samples from patients with AMI were analyzed and the results showed that the expression of microRNA (miR)-124 was significantly increased in peripheral blood of patients with AMI compared with healthy subjects. In addition, miR-124 overexpression notably promoted the apoptosis of HUVECs and attenuated their proliferative ability. Based on these findings, RNA from HUVECs was extracted and sequenced to investigate the changes in the gene expression profile triggered by miR-124 overexpression. The upregulated genes were enriched in several signaling pathways such as PI3K/AKT, while the downregulated ones were mainly enriched in metabolic-related signaling pathways. Additionally, the chromosomal location analysis revealed that the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were distributed in all chromosomes, except the Y sex chromosome. Furthermore, the characteristic profile of DEGs mediated by miR-124 overexpression was analyzed via Connectivity Map analysis. The analysis revealed that anisomycin and sanguinarine, two agonists of the p38/MAPK signaling pathway involved in the inhibition of angiogenesis, exerted the highest enrichment scores. Additionally, Gene Set Enrichment Analysis demonstrated that DEGs were mainly enriched in the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway, thus inhibiting angiogenesis. Collectively, the present results indicated that miR-124 overexpression could promote AMI by affecting angiogenesis.

Project description:Mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) regulate cardiomyocyte growth and apoptosis in response to extracellular stimulation, but the downstream effectors that mediate their pathophysiological effects remain poorly understood. We determined the targets and role of p38 MAPK in the heart in vivo by using local adenovirus-mediated gene transfer of constitutively active upstream kinase mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 3b (MKK3bE) and wild-type p38α in rats. DNA microarray analysis of animals with cardiac-specific overexpression of p38 MAPK revealed that 264 genes were upregulated more than 2-fold including multiple genes controlling cell division, cell signaling, inflammation, adhesion and transcription. Several previously unknown p38 target genes were found. Using gel mobility shift assays we identified several cardiac transcription factors that were directly activated by p38 MAPK. Finally, we determined the functional significance of the altered cardiac gene expression profile by histological analysis and echocardiographic measurements, which indicated that p38 MAPK overexpression induced gene expression results in cell proliferation, myocardial inflammation and fibrosis. In conclusion, we defined the novel target genes and transcription factors as well as the functional effects of p38 MAPK in the heart. Expression profiling of p38 MAPK overexpression identified cell cycle regulatory and inflammatory genes critical for pathological processes in the adult heart. Keywords: Gene transfer

Project description:SARS-CoV-2, the causative agent of the COVID-19 pandemic, drastically modifies the cells that it infects. One such effect is the activation of the host p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway, which plays a major role in inflammation pathways that are dysregulated in severe COVID-19 cases. Inhibition of p38/MAPK activity in SARS-CoV-2-infected cells reduces both cytokine production and viral replication. Here, we applied a systems biology approach to better understand interactions between the p38/MAPK pathway and SARS-CoV-2 in human lung epithelial cells. We found several components of the p38/MAPK pathway positively and negatively impact SARS-CoV-2 infection and that p38ß is a required host factor for SARS-CoV-2 that acts by promoting viral protein translation in a manner that prevents innate immune sensing. Furthermore, we combined chemical and genetic perturbations of p38ß with quantitative phosphoproteomics to identify novel, putative p38ß substrates in an unbiased manner, with broad relevance beyond SARS-CoV-2 biology.

Project description:Objective: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system (CNS), characterized by a global increasing incidence driven by relapsing-remitting disease in females. p38 MAP kinase (MAPK) has been described as a key regulator of inflammatory responses in autoimmunity, but its role in the sexual dimorphism in MS or MS models remains unexplored. Methods: Toward this end, we used experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), the principal animal model of MS, combined with pharmacologic and genetic inhibition of p38 MAPK activity and transcriptomic analyses. Results: Pharmacologic inhibition of p38 MAPK selectively ameliorated EAE in female mice. Conditional deletion studies demonstrated that p38M-NM-1 signaling in macrophages/myeloid cells, but not T cells or dendritic cells, recapitulated this sexual dimorphism. Analysis of CNS inflammatory infiltrates showed that female, but not male mice lacking p38M-NM-1 in myeloid cells exhibited reduced immune cell activation compared with controls, while peripheral T cell priming was unaffected in both sexes. Transcriptomic analyses of myeloid cells revealed differences in p38M-NM-1-controlled transcripts comprising female- and male-specific gene modules, with greater p38M-NM-1 dependence of pro-inflammatory gene expression in females. Interpretation: Our findings demonstrate a key role for p38M-NM-1 in myeloid cells in CNS autoimmunity and uncover important molecular mechanisms underlying sex differences in disease pathogenesis. Taken together, our results suggest that the p38 MAPK signaling pathway represents a novel target for much needed disease modifying therapies for MS WT vs. p38alphaCKO macrophages, male vs. female

Project description:Analysis of the p38 MAPK pathway in regulation of dendritic cells (DCs) differentiation at the gene expression level. Bone marrow cells were cultured with mGM-CSF (20 ng/ml) in the presence of 1.5 mM of SB202190 or 0.1% DMSO. At day 7, semi-adherent cells were collected as immature DCs (iDCs). iDCs were matured by TNF-a (10 ng/ml) and IL-1b (10 ng/ml) for 48 hours. Results showed that p38 MAPK activity in DC progenitor cells acts as an antigen presentation attenuator, and disabling this critical brake during DC differentiation endows DCs with enhanced immunogenicity, which may be useful for the induction of antitumor immune responses. Total RNA was obtained from 2-day-cultured bone marrow cells, iDCs and mature DCs.

Project description:The transcription factor EB (TFEB) regulates energy homeostasis and cellular response to a wide variety of stress conditions, including nutrient deprivation, oxidative stress, organelle damage, and pathogens. Here we identify S401 as a novel phosphorylation site within the TFEB proline-rich domain. Phosphorylation of S401 increases significantly in response to oxidative stress, UVC light, growth factors and LPS, whereas this increase is prevented by p38 MAPK inhibition or depletion, revealing a new role for p38 MAPK in TFEB regulation. Mutation of S401 in THP1 cells demonstrates that the p38 MAPK/TFEB pathway plays a particularly relevant role during monocyte differentiation into macrophages. TFEB-S401A monocytes fail to upregulate expression of multiple immune genes in response to PMA-induced differentiation, including critical cytokines, chemokines, and growth factors. Polarization of M0 macrophages into M1 inflammatory macrophages is also aberrant in TFEB-S401A cells. These results indicate that TFEB-S401 phosphorylation links differentiation signals to the transcriptional control of monocyte differentiation.

Project description:p38-MAPKs are stress activated kinases necessary for placental development and nutrient and oxygen transfer during murine post-implantation development. In preimplantation development, p38-MAPK activity is required for blastocyst formation. Additionally, we have previously reported its role in regulating specification of inner cell mass (ICM) towards primitive endoderm (PrE), although a comprehensive mechanistic understanding is currently limited. Adopting live embryo imaging, proteomic and transcriptomic approaches, we report experimental data that directly address this deficit. Chemical inhibition of p38-MAPK activity during blastocyst maturation causes impaired blastocyst cavity expansion, most evident between the third and tenth hours post inhibition onset. We identify an overlapping minimal early blastocyst maturation window of p38-MAPKi inhibition (p38-MAPKi) sensitivity, that is sufficient to impair PrE cell fate by the late blastocyst (E4.5) stage. Comparative proteomic analyses reveal substantial downregulation of ribosomal proteins, the mRNA transcripts of which are also significantly upregulated. Ontological analysis of the differentially expressed transcriptome during this developmental period reveals “translation” related gene transcripts as being most significantly, yet transiently, affected by p38-MAPKi. Moreover, combined assays consistently report concomitant reductions in de novo translation that are associated with accumulation of unprocessed rRNA precursors. Using a phospho-proteomic approach, ± p38-MAPKi, to potentially identify p38-MAPK effectors, we report that clonal siRNA mediated knockdown of Mybpp1a, an rRNA transcription and processing regulator gene, is associated with significantly diminished PrE contribution. Lastly, we show that defective PrE specification caused by p38-MAPKi (but not MEK/ERK signalling inhibition) can be partially rescued by activating the archetypal mTOR mediated translation regulatory pathway. Activated p38-MAPK controls blastocyst maturation in an early and distinctly transient developmental window by regulating gene functionalities related to translation, that creates a permissive environment for appropriate specification of ICM cell fate.
