Thrombospondin-1 type 1 repeats in a model of inflammatory bowel disease: genetic profile and therapeutic effects

ABSTRACT: Thrombospondin 1 (TSP-1) is an anti-angiogenic matricellular protein with regulatory functions in inflammation and cancer. The type 1 repeats (TSR) domains of TSP-1 have been shown to interact with a wide range of proteins that result in the anti-angiogenic and anti-tumor properties of TSP-1. To evaluate potential therapeutic effects of TSRs in inflammatory bowel disease, we conducted clinical, histological and gene microarray analyses on a mouse model of induced colitis. We used Affymetrix GeneChips to determine the changes in the genetic profile underlying TSR-treatment coincident with induction of colitis using DSS. We identified differentially expressed genes among the treatment groups. Using DSS (dextran sulfate sodium) to induce colitis, wild-type mice were simultaneously injected with either saline or one form of TSP-1 derived peptides, containing either the three domains of the TSR (3TSR), the two last domains (TSR2), or TSR2 with the RFK sequence (TSR2+RFK). Wt mice drinking water only was used as reference.

The type 1 repeats (TSR) domains of TSP-1 have been shown to interact with a wide range of proteins that result in the anti-angiogenic and anti-tumor properties of TSP-1.

Project description:Background: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) acting as negative regulators of gene expression are differentially expressed in intestinal tissues of patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Assessing the functional role of miRNAs in murine models of colitis facilitates elucidating the role of specific miRNAs in human IBD. The aim of this study was to determine the miRNA signature of murine models of colitis and to assess the influence of miR-21 on intestinal inflammation. Methods: miRNAs expression was accessed by microarray for acute and chronic murine model of colitis induced by DSS or TNBS. miR-21-deficient mouse and littermates controls were assessed in the standard DSS, TNBS and CD4+ T cell transfer models of colitis. RNAs of mouse colon and CD4+CD45RBHigh cells were analyzed by miRNA and mRNA microarray, and quantitative RT-PCR. Th1 polarization was accessed by flow-cytometry and ELISA. Results: Alterations of in miRNAs expression were identified for acute and chronic DSS colitis and TNBS colitis, receptively. The Expression of miRs-21, -142-3p and -223 was were distinct between DSS and TNBS models while overlap of numerous miRNAs was seen. Importantly, miRs-19b, -192 and -215, that are decreased in IBD, were significantly decreased in all 4 models of colitis. miR-21, which is increased in IBD, was increased in TNBS colitis but not the DSS colitis models. Further assessment of the miR-21-deficient 1-/- mice revealed that the deletion of miR-21 results in the exacerbation of both the TNBS and T cell-transfer models of colitis. Conclusions: miRNAs are differentially expressed in both human IBD and murine colitis, with overlap of several IBD-associated miRNAs. The demonstration that miR-21 deletion exacerbated CD4+ T cell-mediated models of colitis provides further evidence that miRNAs play significant roles in the pathogenesis of IBD. miRNAs expression was accesed for acute and chronic murine model of colitis induced by DSS or TNBS.Total of 20 samples with duplicates were analyed in this study.

Project description:Here we describe our unprecedented approach in proposing parsley (PAR) as a nutraceutical intervention in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) using a mouse model of dextran sodium sulphate (DSS)-induced colitis, following a multi-integrated-omics analysis. PAR supplementation (n=7) significantly improved colon shortening and increased the disease activity index compared to the DSS group (n=7). The colonic transcriptome revealed the down-regulation of inflammatory cytokines, and the hepatic transcriptome and metabolome revealed the up-regulation of fatty acid synthesis genes, thereby improving body weight loss. Down-regulated cancer markers were observed in the hepatic transcriptome and proteome. A global plasma metabolite analysis indicated shifts in the citric cycle and urea cycle, implicating improved impaired glycolysis and oxidative stress. Our integration of three omics analyses highlighted the involvement of the methionine-recycling pathway and PARM-bM-^@M-^Ys role in decreasing the risk of IBD. This pioneering use of multi-integrated-omics in the evaluation of nutrientsM-bM-^@M-^Y effects on physiology is expected to be widely useful and informative, shaping the future of nutritional research.

Total hepatic and colonic RNA from each respective group were pooled (n=7). The microarray analysis was carried as out as described by Jia et al. 8 Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array GeneChips (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA) containing over 30,000 gene probe sets were used for genome-wide expression profiling.
