IL-33 Downregulates Hepatic Carboxylesterase 1 in Acute Liver Injury via Macrophage-derived Exosomal miR-27b-3p.

ABSTRACT:

Background and aims

We previously reported that carboxylesterase 1 (CES1) expression was suppressed following liver injury. The study aimed to explore the role of interleukin (IL)-33 in liver injury and examine the mechanism by which IL-33 regulates CES1.

Methods

IL-33 and CES1 levels were determined in the livers of patients and lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-, acetaminophen (APAP)-treated mice. We constructed IL-33 and ST2 knockout (KO) mice. ST2-enriched immune cells in livers were screened to identify the responsible cells. Macrophage-derived exosome (MDE) activity was tested by adding exosome inhibitors. Micro-RNAs (miRs) were extracted from control and IL-33-stimulated MDEs (IL-33-MDEs) and subjected miR sequencing (miR-Seq). Candidate miR was tested in vitro and in vivo and its binding of a target gene was assessed by luciferase reporter assays. Lentivirus-vector cellular transfection and transcript silencing were used to examine pathways mediating IL-33 suppression of miR-27b-3p.

Results

Patient liver IL-33 and CES1 expression levels were inversely correlated. CES1 downregulation in liver injury was rescued in both IL-33-deficient and ST2 KO mice. Macrophages were shown to be responsible for IL-33 effects. IL-33-MDEs reduced CES1 levels in hepatocytes. Exosomal miR-Seq and qRT-PCR demonstrated increased miR-27b-3p levels in IL-33-MDEs; miR-27b-3p was implicated in Nrf2 targeting. IL-33 inhibition of miR-27b-3p was found to be GATA3-dependent.

Conclusions

IL-33-ST2-GATA3 pathway signaling increases miR-27b-3p content in MDEs, which upon being internalized by hepatocytes reduce CES1 expression by inhibiting Nrf2. The elucidation of this mechanism in this study contributes to a better understanding of CES1 dysregulation in liver injury.

Project description:BackgroundMetastasis is the main cause of death in colorectal cancer (CRC). Circulating tumour cells (CTCs) are regarded as the precursor cells of metastasis. The CTCs, which underwent epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), are associated with metastasis and responsible for poor prognosis. EMT cancer cells modulate endothelial permeability in the invasive front and facilitate cancer cell intravasation, resulting in CTCs-mediated distant metastasis. Exosomes derived from cancer cells are key mediators of cancer-host intercommunication. However, the mechanism by which EMT-tumour cells-derived exosomes modulate vascular permeability and promote CTCs generation has remained unclear.MethodsExosomes isolation and purification were conducted by ultra-centrifugation. Exosomal miRNA was identified by sequencing followed by quantitative PCR. In vitro co-culture assay experiments were conducted to evaluate the effect of exosomal miR-27b-3p on the permeability of blood vessel endothelium. Dual-luciferase reporter assay, chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) were performed to investigate the underlying mechanism by which miR-27b-3p is packaged into exosomes. A mouse model was established to determine the role of exosomal miR-27b-3p in blood vessel permeability modulation in vivo.ResultsWe found that EMT-CRC cells attenuate the blood vessel barrier by transferring miR-27b-3p to human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) in exosomes. Mechanically, miR-27b-3p atteuated the expression of vascular endothelial cadherin (VE-Cad) and p120 at the post-transcriptional level by binding to 3'-untranslated region of VE-Cad and p120 directly. The packaging of miR-27b-3p into exosomes was induced by heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein A1 (hnRNPA1), which activated by STAT3. Clinically, miR-27b-3p up-regulated in CRC tissues. Plasma exosomal miR-27b-3p was positively correlated with malignant progression and CTC count in CRC patients. Our study reveals a novel mechanism by which EMT-CRC cells promote metastasis, increasing blood vessel permeability and facilitating the generation of CTCs.ConclusionExosomal miR-27b-3p secreted by EMT-CRC cells increases blood vessel permeability and facilitates the generation of CTCs. Exosomal miR-27b-3p may become a promising biomarker for CRC metastasis.
