Project description:Fusobacterium nucleatum (F. nucleatum) contributes to the development of colorectal cancer (CRC) by inducing chronic inflammation. We found that iron deposition in macrophages is associated with poor prognosis of CRC patients with high amount of F. nucleatum. To explore the impact of iron on macrophage properties in the presence of F. nucleatum, we conducted RNA sequencing of THP-1 macrophages pretreated with ferric anmonium citrate (FAC) or deferoxamine (DFO), followed by treatment with F. nucleatum. Several chemokine genes were differentially increased in FAC-treated cells when compared with DFO-treated cells, suggesting that iron is required for the efficient induction of tumor-promoting chemokines in macrophages upon F. nucleatum infection. Our results suggest a prognostic role for iron in F. nucleatum-positive CRC.

Project description:Hereditary hemochromatosis and transfusional iron overload are frequent clinical conditions associated with progressive iron accumulation in parenchymal tissues leading to eventual organ failure. We have discovered a novel mechanism to reverse iron overload by pharmacological modulation of the divalent metal transporter-1 (DMT-1). DMT-1 mediates intracellular iron transport during the transferrin cycle and apical iron absorption in the duodenum. Additional functions in iron handling in the kidney and liver are less well understood. We show that the L- type calcium-channel blocker nifedipine increases DMT-1 mediated cellular iron transport 10-to 100-fold at concentrations between 1-100 uM. Mechanistically, nifedipine causes this effect by prolongation of the activity of DMT-1 to transport iron. We show that nifedipine mobilizes iron from the liver of mice with primary and secondary iron overload, and enhances urinary iron excretion. Modulation of DMT-1 function by L-type calcium-channel blockers emerges a novel pharmacological concept to treat iron overload disorders.<br> <br> In this experiment mice were subjected to dietary iron overload before being treated with nifedipine at 5 ug/g bodyweight, or mock treated with the same volume of solvent.

Project description:Iron overload disorders are an important factor contributing to various pathologies. However, the effects of iron overload on liver transcriptional regulation are largely unknown. To examine the effects of iron overload on liver transcriptome and chromatin accessibility, we fed mice a high-iron diet (HID) for 2 weeks. Then, livers were collected and profiled by RNA-seq and ATAC-seq.

Project description:Iron overload, characterized by accumulation of iron in tissues, induces a multiorgan toxicity whose mechanisms are not fully understood. Using cultured cell lines, Caenorhabditis elegans, and mice, we found that ferroptosis occurs in the context of iron-overload-mediated damage. Exogenous oleic acid protected against iron-overload-toxicity in cell culture and Caenorhabditis elegans by suppressing ferroptosis. In mice, oleic acid protected against FAC-induced liver lipid peroxidation and damage. Oleic acid changed the cellular lipid composition, characterized by decreased levels of polyunsaturated fatty acyl phospholipids and decreased levels of ether-linked phospholipids. The protective effect of oleic acid in cells was attenuated by GW6471 (a PPAR- antagonist), as well as in Caenorhabditis elegans lacking the nuclear hormone receptor NHR-49 (a PPAR- functional homologue). These results highlight ferroptosis as a driver of iron-overload-mediated damage, which is inhibited by oleic acid. This monounsaturated fatty acid represents a potential therapeutic approach to mitigating organ damage in iron overload individuals.

Project description:Hereditary Hemochromatosis (HH) is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by an abnormally low expression or functional derangement of the iron regulatory hormone hepcidin. The absorption of dietary iron is disproportionate in these patients, leading to iron deposition in several tissues and consequent damage of organs including liver, heart, and pancreas. Late complications in absence of diagnosis and treatment include cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma, cardiomyopathy and diabetes. Unfortunately, iron overload appears also as an acquired complication. This is the case of a variety of anemias (thalassemias, myelodysplastic syndromes, hemoglobinopathies, etc.) in which compensating mechanisms increase iron absorption. Another cause of iron overload in these patients are the repeated transfusional treatments they receive. It follows that iron overload is a common clinical problem. Therefore, we investigated the effects of iron overload on gene expression in skeletal muscle and heart using microarray technology. Genes with up-regulated expression after iron overload in both skeletal and heart muscle included angiopoietin-like 4, pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 4 and calgranulin A and B. The expression of transferrin receptor, heat shock protein 1B and DnaJ homolog B1 were down-regulated by iron in both muscle types. Two potential hepcidin regulatory genes, hemojuvelin and neogenin, showed no clear change in expression after iron overload. Concluding, microarray analysis revealed iron-induced changes in the expression of several genes involved in the regulation of glucose and lipid metabolism, transcription and cellular stress responses. These may represent novel connections between iron overload and pathological manifestations of HH such as cardiomyopathy and diabetes. Keywords: iron induced stress response

Project description:Tissue iron (Fe) overload is a frequent pathologic finding in multiple disease states including non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), neurodegenerative disorders, cardiomyopathy, diabetes, and some forms of cancer. The role of iron, as a cause or consequence of disease progression and observed phenotypic manifestations, remains controversial. In addition, the impact of genetic variation on iron overload related phenotypes is unclear, and the identification of genetic modifiers is incomplete. Here, our aim was to characterize the genetic architecture of dietary iron overload and pathology using the Hybrid Mouse Diversity Panel (HMDP), a panel of over 100 genetically distinct mouse strains optimized for genome-wide association studies and systems genetics. Dietary iron overload was induced by feeding male mice (114 strains, 6-7 mice per strain on average) a high iron diet for six weeks, and then tissues were collected at 10-11 weeks of age. Liver metal levels and gene expression were measured by ICP-MS and RNASeq, and lipids were measured by colorimetric assays. FaST-LMM was used for genetic mapping, and Metascape, WGCNA, and Mergeomics were used for pathway, module, and key driver bioinformatics analyses. Mice on the high Fe diet accumulated Fe in the liver, with a 6.5-fold difference across strain means. The iron loaded diet also led to a spectrum of copper deficiency and anemia, with liver copper levels highly correlated with red blood cell count, hemoglobin, and hematocrit. Hepatic steatosis of various severity was observed histologically, with 52.5-fold variation in triglyceride (TG) levels across the strains. TG and Fe mapped most significantly to an overlapping locus on chromosome 7 that has not been previously associated with either trait. Based on network modeling, significant key drivers for both Fe and TG accumulation are involved in cholesterol biosynthesis and oxidative stress management. To make the full data set accessible and useable by others, we have made our data and analyses available on a resource website.

Project description:Iron is an essential trace element whose absorption is usually tightly regulated in the duodenum. HFE-related hereditary hemochromatosis (HH) is characterized by abnormally low expression of the iron-regulatory hormone, hepcidin, which results in increased iron absorption. The liver is crucial for iron homeostasis as it is the main production site of hepcidin. The aim of this study was to explore and compare the genome-wide transcriptome response to Hfe deficiency and dietary iron overload in murine liver and duodenum.
