Molecular Characterization of Treponema denticola infection-induced bone and soft tissue transcriptional profiles

ABSTRACT: The objectives of this investigation were to examine changes in the host transcriptional profiles during a Treponema denticola infection using a murine calvarial model of inflammation and bone resorption. T. denticola ATCC 35404 was injected into the subcutaneous soft tissue over the calvaria of BALB/c mice for 3 days, after which the soft tissues and calvarial bones were excised. RNA was isolated from infected soft tissues and calvarial bones and analyzed for transcript profiles using Murine GeneChip® MG-MOE430A Affymetrix arrays to provide a molecular profile of the events that occur following infection of these tissues. We used mouse microarrays to detail the molecular profile of the events that occur following infection of calvarial and bone tissues and identified distinct classes of up- and down-regulated genes during this process. T. denticola was injected at 1.5 x 109 (N = 10) into the soft tissues overlying the calvaria of the mice for 3 days. A control group (N = 9) was injected with vehicle once daily for 3 days. Mice were euthanized 8 h after the last injection. The calvarial bones and overlying soft tissues from 5 mice in each group were excised, snap frozen in liquid nitrogen, and stored at –80°C until RNA isolation. Total RNA was isolated from the frozen calvarial tissue and calvarial bone from each mouse (T. denticola infected and control animals) with Trizol reagent (Invitrogen, CA). Equal amounts of RNA from samples were labeled and hybridized on a mouse GeneChip following the protocol described in the GeneChip Expression Analysis Technical manual (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA). After hybridization, the GeneChip arrays were stained and scanned in an Affymetrix GCS 3000 7G Scanner.

Project description:The reciprocal interaction between cancer cells and the tissue-specific stroma is critical for primary and metastatic tumor growth progression. Prostate cancer cells colonize preferentially bone (osteotropism), where they alter the physiological balance between osteoblast-mediated bone formation and osteoclast-mediated bone resorption, and elicit prevalently an osteoblastic response (osteoinduction). The molecular cues provided by osteoblasts for the survival and growth of bone metastatic prostate cancer cells are largely unknown. We exploited the sufficient divergence between human and mouse RNA sequences together with redefinition of highly species-specific gene arrays by computer-aided and experimental exclusion of cross-hybridizing oligonucleotide probes. This strategy allowed the dissection of the stroma (mouse) from the cancer cell (human) transcriptome in bone metastasis xenograft models of human osteoinductive prostate cancer cells (VCaP and C4-2B). As a result, we generated the osteoblastic bone metastasis-associated stroma transcriptome (OB-BMST). Subtraction of genes shared by inflammation, wound healing and desmoplastic responses, and by the tissue type-independent stroma responses to a variety of non-osteotropic and osteotropic primary cancers generated a curated gene signature (“Core” OB-BMST) putatively representing the bone marrow/bone-specific stroma response to prostate cancer-induced, osteoblastic bone metastasis. The expression pattern of three representative Core OB-BMST genes (PTN, EPHA3 and FSCN1) seems to confirm the bone specificity of this response. A robust induction of genes involved in osteogenesis and angiogenesis dominates both the OB-BMST and Core OB-BMST. This translates in an amplification of hematopoietic and, remarkably, prostate epithelial stem cell niche components that may function as a self-reinforcing bone metastatic niche providing a growth support specific for osteoinductive prostate cancer cells. The induction of this combinatorial stem cell niche is a novel mechanism that may also explain cancer cell osteotropism and local interference with hematopoiesis (myelophthisis). Accordingly, these stem cell niche components may represent innovative therapeutic targets and/or serum biomarkers in osteoblastic bone metastasis.

Project description:The Rosa-rtTAnls/tetO-HoxA10 mouse model is a Tetracycline-On (tetO) system in which the expression level of HoxA10 can be tightly regulated and overexpressed under administration of the Doxycycline (Doxy) in the drinking bottle of mice or fed with Ciproxine (Cipro) as a negative control of HoxA10 expression. In this experiment, we analyzed molecular karyotype derived from CGH arrays analysis of HoxA10 Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) cells induced in primary recipient mice (1ary) and in secondary recipient mice, with HoxA10 overexpression (DOXY) or after turning off the HoxA10 overexpression (CIPRO). Concerning the biological design, we compared leukemia induced in primary recipient mice (1ary) to normal bone marrow (normal control). We compared also primary leukemia (1ary) to leukemia induced in secondary recipient mice induce by continuous expression of HoxA10 (Doxy). Finally we compared leukemia induced in secondary recipient mice induce by continuous expression of HoxA10 (Doxy) to leukemia induced in secondary recipient mice after turning off expression of HoxA10 (Cipro) to analyse relapse growth of leukemic cells after turning off HoxA10. Concerning the protocol, the leukemic cells originated from two independent primary AML donor mice (cl1 and cl2) are injected in secondary recipient mice, which are monitored for reoccurrence of leukemia. AML are induced by Doxycycline (Doxy) or Ciproxine as negative control (Cipro), by administration of 0.2g/mL continuously in the drinking bottle until development of AML. In sick mice, femurs and tibias were removed and cleaned of soft tissue, bones were crushed, and the cell suspension was filtered over a 100-m pore size cell strainer filter (Falcon; Becton Dickinson). Total DNA from BM cells of Cipro and Doxy receiving recipient mice suffering from leukemia was extracted from bone marrow cells (Qiagen). DNA concentration and integrity were respectively determined by NanoDrop spectrophotometry (NanoDrop technologies) and a Bioanalyser (Agilent technology). Hybridization to Mouse CGH microarray 244A (Agilent) were performed by the Atlas Biolabs (Germany).
