Indoles (I3C and DIM)-mediated regulation of microRNAs in DTH model

ABSTRACT: Our laboratory observed that indoles (I3C and DIM) suppressed the development of delayed type hypersensitivity (DTH) in mice. Also, we observed differential regulation of regulatory T cells (Tregs) and Th17 cells in mice treated with I3C or DIM. The aim of this experiment was, therefore, to understand the role of I3C or DIM in the regulation of microRNAs (miRs) in immune cells and generation of Tregs and Th17 cells. We also used FICZ, an aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) ligand to understand the role of various ligands in the regulation of Tregs and Th17 cells. To this end, we used draining (inguinal) lymph nodes (LNs) of mice (C57BL/6) with DTH and treated with Vehicle (corn oil, VEH) or I3C or DIM or FICZ. In brief, total RNA including miRs from inguinal LNs were isolated using miRNeasy kit and the protocol of the company was followed (QIAGEN, Valencia, CA). Next, miR arrays were performed at Johns Hopkins University Microarray and Sequencing Core facility using platform.

MicroRNA profiling of Draining Lymph node (popliteal and inguinal) from mice with delayed hypersensitivity treated with vehicle control, TCDD and FICZ

Project description:Aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR), is a transcription factor and an environmental sensor and AhR ligands exert varying effects from suppression to exacerbation of inflammation, the reason for which is unclear. In the current study, we demonstrate for the first time that the differential effects of AhR ligands on T cell differentiation (Tregs vs Th-17 cells) is mediated by miRNA, specifically, miRNA-132. We also demonstrate that miRNA-132 targets High Mobility Group Box 1 (HMGB1), which in turn regulates the differentiation of FoxP3+ Tregs. We demonstrate the role of miRNA-132 conclusively using transfection studies and the use of mice deficient in miRNA-132. We wish to point out that our studies are novel in that the role of HMGB1 in the regulation of Tregs has not been previously reported. To this end, we used popliteal and inguinal lymph nodes (DLNs) of mice (C57BL/6) with DTH and treated with Vehicle (corn oil, VEH) or TCDD or FICZ. In brief, total RNA including miRs from DLNs were isolated using miRNeasy kit and the protocol of the company was followed (QIAGEN, Valencia, CA). Next, miR arrays were performed at Johns Hopkins University Microarray and Sequencing Core facility using platform.

Toxicogenomic profiling of trout tumor promoters

Project description:Indole-3-carbinol (I3C), from cruciferous vegetables, has been found to suppress or enhance tumors in several animal models. We previously reported that dietary I3C promotes hepatocarcinogenesis in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) at concentrations that differentially activated estrogen receptor (ER) or aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR)-mediated responses based on individual protein biomarkers. In this study, we evaluated the relative importance of these pathways as potential mechanisms for I3C on a global scale. Hepatic gene expression profiles were examined in trout after dietary exposure to 500 and 1500 ppm I3C and 3,3,-diindolylmethane (DIM), a major in vivo component of I3C, and were compared to the transcriptional signatures of two model hepatic tumor promoters; 17beta-estradiol (E2), an ER agonist, and beta-naphthoflavone, an AhR agonist. We demonstrate that I3C and DIM acted similar to E2 at the transcriptional level based on correlation analysis of expression profiles and clustering of gene responses. Of the genes regulated by E2 (fold change >2.0 or <0.50), most genes were regulated similarly by DIM (87-92%) and I3C (71%) suggesting a common mechanism of action. Of interest were upregulated genes associated with signaling pathways for cell growth and proliferation, vitellogenesis, and protein folding, stability and transport. Other genes down-regulated by E2, including those involved in acute-phase immune response, were also down-regulated by DIM and I3C. Gene regulation was confirmed by qRT-PCR and western blot. These data indicate I3C promotes hepatocarcinogenesis through estrogenic mechanisms in trout liver and suggest DIM may be an even more potent hepatic tumor promoter in this model.

Gene expression during tumor enhancement by 3,3’-diindolylmethane in rainbow trout: Timecourse

Project description:Indole-3-carbinol (I3C) and 3,3’-diindolylmethane (DIM), a primary I3C derivative in vivo, are known dietary chemopreventive agents also available as dietary supplements. However, I3C has been found to act as a tumor promoter in rat (multi-organ) and trout (liver) models. I3C and DIM were previously found to be estrogenic in trout liver based on toxicogenomic profiles. In this study, we compare the post-initiation effects of DIM and 17β-estradiol (E2) on aflatoxin B1 (AFB1)-induced hepatocarcinogenesis in trout. Trout were initiated as embryos with 50 ppb AFB1, fed control diet for three months followed by diets containing 0, 120 or 400 ppm DIM or 5 ppm E2 for 18 weeks before returning all groups to control diet. Tumor incidence was determined 13 months later and found to be significantly elevated in AFB1-initiated trout fed either 400 ppm DIM or 5 ppm E2 compared to control animals. To evaluate the mechanism of tumor enhancement, hepatic gene expression profiles were examined in animals fed promotional diets during the course of tumorigenesis and in hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs) of initiated animals using a rainbow trout 70-mer custom oligonucleotide array. We demonstrate that DIM alters gene expression profiles similar to E2 in liver samples during tumorigenesis and in HCC tumors. Further, HCCs from animals on DIM and E2 promotional diets had a transcriptional signature indicating decreased invasive or metastatic potential compared to HCCs from control animals. Overall, these findings are the first to demonstrate tumor promotion by DIM. They confirm the importance of estrogenic signaling in the mechanism of promotion by dietary indoles in trout liver and indicate a possible dual effect that enhances tumor incidence and decreases potential for metastasis.

Tryptamine Serves As a Proligand of the AhR Transcriptional Pathway, and the Activation Is Dependent of Monoamine Oxidases

Project description:In this study we show that physiological concentrations of tryptamine (TA) lead to induction of cytochrome P4501A1 transcription through an AhR-dependent mechanism. In addition, we show that activation of the AhR by TA requires a functional monoamino oxidase system, suggesting that TA acts as an AhR proligand possibly by converting to a high-affinity AhR ligand. RNA seq was performed from Hepa cells treated with FICZ or TA by SciLifelabs.

G-Protein-Coupled Receptor 68 Negatively Regulates IL-22 Production in Human Th17 Cells

Project description:Purpose: To identify novel genes regulated by the aryl hydrocarbon receptor that influence human Th17 cell function. Methods: Naïve CD4 T cells from peripheral blood of six healthy human volunteers were cultured under four experimental conditions for three days: anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 antibodies (Media control), Media with Th17 conditions (IL-6, TGF-b, IL-1b, IL-23), Th17+FICZ and Th17+CH223191. Total RNA was extracted from each sample on day 3 and sequenced in a paired-end 2x50bp strategy on an Illumina HiSeq1500. A total of six donors were analyzed. Results: AhR activation with FICZ suppressed IL-17 production from human CD4 T cells and increased IL-22. AhR inhibition with CH223191 potently suppressed IL-22 and modestly increased IL-17 production. On day 3, the number of significantly regulated genes for each treatment were 975 (Th17), 88 (Th17+FICZ) and 142 (Th17+CH223191). 11 common genes were significantly regulated by all three treatments. One of these, GPR68, was investigated further in functional studies since its expression correlated with IL-22 production. Activation of GPR68 with a positive allosteric modulator suppressed IL-22 concentrations in human Th17 cell cultures. Conclusions: Our study demonstrates that GPR68 activation can negatively regulate IL-22 production from human CD4 T cells in the presence of an AhR agonist. RNA-seq is a powerful method to identify novel gene targets that regulate cytokines involved in chronic inflammatory diseases.

CD49f defines a subset of dysfunctional regulatory T cells circulating in the human peripheral blood

Project description:The therapeutic use of regulatory T cells (Tregs) in patients with autoimmune disorders has been hampered by the biological variability of memory Treg populations in the peripheral blood. In this study, we reveal through a combination of quantitative proteomic, multiparametric flow cytometry, RNA-seq data analysis and functional assays, that CD49f is heterogeneously expressed among human Tregs and impacts their immunomodulatory function. High expression of CD49f defines a subset of dysfunctional Tregs in the human blood characterized by a Th17-like phenotype and impaired suppressive capacity. CD49f is similarly distributed between naïve and memory Tregs and impacts the expression of CD39, CTLA-4, FoxP3 and CCR6 specifically in the memory compartment. Accumulation of CD49f high memory Tregs in the blood of ulcerative colitis patients correlates with disease severity. Our results highlight important considerations for Treg immunotherapy design in patients with inflammatory bowel disease which could possibly extend to other autoimmune disorders.
