Project description:To further understand the physiological role of cyclooxygenase (COX), the critical enzyme involved in the production of eicosanoids from arachidonic acid, we performed microarray analysis of gene expression in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus of mice deficient in COX-1 (COX-1-/-) or COX-2 (COX-2-/-). Expression of lipid (ATP citrate lyase, acetyl-CoA acetyltransferase, hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase) and homocysteine (methionine adenosyltransferase, S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase) metabolism genes was increased in the cerebral cortex of COX-2 -/- mice. Further, expression of GABAergic neurotransmission genes (GABA transporter 3, GABA-A receptor subunit ?1) was altered in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus of COX-2 -/- mice. A COX isoform specific effect was observed in the expression of Janus Kinase (JAK) 1 and 2. COX-1 -/- mice exhibited an increase in JAK1 expression while COX-2 -/- mice exhibited a decrease in JAK2 expression, an observation consistent with a previously demonstrated COX isoform specific effect on the expression of NF-kB. In summary, this study demonstrates the wide ranging effects of genetic deletion of COX isoforms in the mouse brain and suggests that inhibition of COX activity may alter the profile of gene expression in specific areas of the brain. We used nylon cDNA microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression in the Cerebral Cortex and Hippocampus of COX-1 and COX-2 null (knockout) mice Keywords: brain, cerebral cortex, hippocampus, COX-1 WT, COX-1 KO, COX-2 WT, COX-2 KO and COX-2 heterozygous

Project description:Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) catalyzes the oxidation of arachidonic acid (AA) into a single product that is the source of all prostaglandins (PGs), ligands of multiple pro-inflammatory pathways. AA catalysis results in suicide inactivation, rendering the enzyme catalytically inactive. We report that catalytic activity also leads to controlled cleavage of COX-2, an event that is differentially regulated by fatty acids, and blocked by COX inhibitors. Using mass spectrometry, we identified two adjacent cleavage points within the catalytic domain, which give rise to COX-2 fragments that are catalytically inactive and localize to different cellular compartments. These fragments were also detected in human colon tumors. Expression of one of these fragments in cells significantly reduced mitochondrial function, increased lactate production, and enhanced proliferation.

Project description:Airway integrity must be continuously maintained throughout life. Sensory neurons guard against airway obstruction and on a moment-by-moment basis, enact vital reflexes to maintain respiratory function. Decreased lung capacity is common and life-threatening across many respiratory diseases, and lung collapse can be acutely evoked by chest wall trauma, pneumothorax, or airway compression. Here, we characterize a neuronal reflex of the vagus nerve evoked by airway closure that leads to gasping. In vivo vagal ganglion imaging revealed dedicated sensory neurons that detect airway compression but not airway stretch. Vagal neurons expressing PVALB mediate airway closure responses, and innervate clusters of lung epithelial cells called neuroepithelial bodies (NEBs). Stimulating NEBs or vagal PVALB neurons evoked gasping in the absence of airway threats, while ablating NEBs or vagal PVALB neurons eliminated gasping to airway closure. Single-cell RNA sequencing revealed that NEBs uniformly express the mechanoreceptor PIEZO2, and targeted knockout of PIEZO2 in NEBs also eliminated responses to airway closure. NEBs are dispensable for the Hering-Breuer inspiratory reflex, indicating that discrete terminal structures detect airway closure and inflation. Like Merkel cells involved in touch sensation, NEBs are PIEZO2-expressing epithelial cells, and moreover, are critical for an aspect of lung mechanosensation. These findings expand our understanding of neuronal diversity in the airways, and reveal a dedicated vagal pathway that detects airway closure to help preserve respiratory function.

Project description:Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) is upregulated in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (PDAC). However, how COX-2 promotes PDAC development is unclear. While previous studies have evaluated the efficacy of COX-2 inhibition via the use of non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) or the COX-2 inhibitor celecoxib in PDAC models, none have addressed the cell intrinsic vs. microenvironment roles of COX-2 in modulating PDAC initiation and progression. We tested the cell intrinsic role of COX-2 in PDAC progression, using both loss-of-function and gain-of-function approaches. Cox-2 deletion in Pdx1+ pancreatic progenitor cells significantly delays the development of PDAC in mice with K-ras activation and Pten haploinsufficiency. Conversely, COX-2 over-expression promotes early onset and progression of PDAC in the K-ras mouse model. Loss of PTEN function is a critical factor in determining lethal PDAC onset and overall survival. Mechanistically, COX-2 over-expression increases P-AKT levels in the precursor lesions of Pdx1+;K-rasG12D/+;Ptenlox/+ mice in the absence of Pten LOH. In contrast, Cox-2 deletion in the same setting diminishes P-AKT levels and delays cancer progression. These data suggest an important cell intrinsic role for COX-2 in tumor initiation and progression through activation of the PI3K/AKT pathway. PDAC that is independent of intrinsic COX-2 expression eventually develops with decreased FKBP5 and increased GRP78 expression, two alternate pathways leading to AKT activation. Together, these results support a cell intrinsic role for COX-2 in PDAC development and suggest that, while anti-COX-2 therapy may delay the development and progression of PDAC, mechanisms known to increase chemoresistance through AKT activation must also be overcome.

Project description:The vagus nerve has long been associated with the regulation of energy balance. However, the identity of the molecules mediating these effects remain largely unknown. Here, we used RNA sequencing to interrogate the molecular repertoire of the mouse vagal afferents. We found that Fgf3 mRNA is upregulated in the jugular-nodose ganglia under acute insulin resistance. Together, we provide evidence for efferent-like roles of the vagal afferents and identify Fgf3 as a novel vagal sensory-derived metabolic hormone that regulates insulin secretion and energy expenditure.

Project description:We performed RNA sequencing in isogenic models of COX-1 proficient (OV3/SCR) and COX-1 deficient (OV3/COX1KD) OVCAR-3 ovarian cancer cells. COX-1 knockdown was associated with a coordinated anti-oncogenic phenotype, with growth, angiogenesis, migration/invasion, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition among the pathways down-regulated.

Murine mutants with pancreatic specific loss of Pten (Pten +/-) and K-ras activation (K-rasG12D) and either COX-2 over-expression (Cox-2 COE) or knockout (Cox-2 KO) under regulation of the Pdx-1 promoter developed pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. RNA was extracted from pancreatic tumors from individual mutants with pathology thought to closely mimic the human disease. Pancreatic tissue was subject to RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix cDNA microarrays.
