Aldehyde oxidase homologue 2 (Aoh2) knockout mouse and retinoic acid synthesis

ABSTRACT: The mouse aldehyde oxidase, Aoh2 (aldehyde oxidase homolog 2), is a molybdo-flavoenzyme. Harderian glands are the richest source of Aoh2, although the protein is detectable also in sebaceous glands, epidermis and other keratinized epithelia. The levels of Aoh2 in the Harderian gland and skin are controlled by genetic background, being maximal in CD1 or C57BL/6 and minimal in DBA/2, CBA or 129/Sv strains. Testosterone is a negative regulator of Aoh2 in Harderian glands. Homogenously purified Aoh2 oxidizes retinaldehyde into retinoic acid efficiently, while it is devoid of pyridoxal oxidizing activity, unlike other aldehyde oxidases. Aoh2 knockout mice are viable and fertile, although they have an absolute deficit of retinaldehyde oxidase activity in the Harderian gland, decreased retinoic acid levels, and down-regulation of retinoid-dependent genes. The Harderian gland’s transcriptome of knockout mice is characterized by perturbations in pathways controlling lipid homeostasis and cellular secretion. This is particularly evident in sexually immature animals. Lower amounts of retinoic acid are also observed in the skin of Aoh2-/- animals. Knockout mice have thickening of the epidermis in basal conditions and after UV light exposure. This has correlates in the skin transcriptome, which shows enrichment and overall up-regulation of genes involved in hypertrophic responses. Keywords: Gene knockout study

PROP1-Dependent Retinoic Acid Signaling Regulates Developmental Pituitary Morphogenesis and Hormone Expression

Project description:Dietary vitamin A is metabolized into bioactive retinoic acid in vivo and regulates the development of many embryonic tissues. Retinoic acid signaling is active in the oral ectoderm-derived tissues of the neuroendocrine system, but its role there has not yet been fully explored. We show here that retinoic acid signaling is active during pituitary organogenesis and dependent on the pituitary transcription factor Prop1. Prop1-mutant mice show reduced expression of the aldehyde dehydrogenase gene Aldh1a2, which metabolizes the vitamin A-intermediate retinaldehyde into retinoic acid. In order to elucidate the specific function of RA signaling during neuroendocrine development, we studied a conditional deletion of Aldh1a2 and a dominant-negative mouse model of inhibited retinoic acid signaling during pituitary organogenesis. These models partially phenocopy Prop1-mutant mice by exhibiting embryonic pituitary dysmorphology and reduced hormone expression, especially of thyroid-stimulating hormone. These findings establish the critical role of retinoic acid in embryonic pituitary stem cell progression to differentiated hormone cells and raise the question of gene-by-environment interactions as contributors to pituitary development and disease.

Profiling of retinaldehyde dehydrogenases in cancer cells

Project description:Retinaldehyde dehydrogenases convert retinal into all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA), thereby regulating cell differentiation and cancer stem cell proliferation. Chemical tools and methods are valuable commodities to study aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) activity in human cells. Here, we describe the design, synthesis and application of LEI-945, a first-in-class activity-based probe modeled on retinal that reports on individual ALDHs in cancer cells. Comparative chemical proteomics with LEI-945 explained the ability of various breast cancer cell lines to produce ATRA via retinaldehyde dehydrogenases isozymes, whereas the ALDEFLUORTM assay could not. Competitive chemical proteomics using LEI-945 revealed that the ALDH inhibitor NCT-505 inhibited both ALDH1A1 and ALDH1A3 in MDA-MB-468 breast cancer cells inducing a cell cycle arrest in the G1 phase as well as cell death through necrosis. Our results show that LEI-945 holds promise to guide the discovery of ALDH-based therapeutics

Murine skin gene expression analysis of skin-specific Scd1-deficient and control mice

Project description:To help elucidate the metabolic changes in the skin that contribute to the obesity resistance and skin pathology in mice lacking Scd1, we performed microarray analysis of skin gene expression in male skin Scd1 knockout (SKO) and Scd1 flox/flox control (Lox) mice fed a standard rodent diet. We identified an extraordinary number of differentially expressed genes that support the previously documented histological observations of sebocyte atrophy, inflammation and epidermal hyperplasia in SKO mice. Additionally, transcript levels were reduced in skin of SKO mice for genes involved in fatty acid synthesis, elongation and desaturation, which may be attributed to decreased abundance of key transcription factors including SREBP1c, ChREBP and LXR?. Conversely, genes involved in cholesterol synthesis were increased, suggesting an imbalance between skin fatty acid and cholesterol synthesis. Unexpectedly, we observed a robust elevation in skin retinol, retinoic acid and retinoic acid-induced genes in SKO mice. These results highlight the importance of monounsaturated fatty acid synthesis for maintaining retinol homeostasis and point to disturbed retinol metabolism as a novel contributor to the Scd1 deficiency-induced skin pathology. We analyzed dorsal skin gene expression in non-fasted 8-9 week old male skin Scd1 knockout (SKO) mice (n=3) and Scd1flox/flox (Lox) control mice (n=3)on a C57BL/6J background using Affymetrix 430 2.0 microarrays.

Retinoic acid and FGF10 promote the differentiation of mESCs into induced embryonic salivary glands

Project description:Salivary glands produce saliva and play essential roles in digestion and oral health. Pluripotent stem cell-derived (PSC) organoids provide a powerful platform for studying salivary gland development and developing new regenerative therapy. The previous protocol of PSC-derived salivary gland organoids required complicated manufacturing processes, which hampered the organoids for basic research and clinical application.Here, by mimicking the regulatory mechanism of developing salivary glands, we reported the differentiation of induced embryonic salivary glands (iE-SGs) from mouse embryonic stem cells by step-wise treatment of retinoic acid and FGF10. We showed that the iE-SGs recapitulated early morphogenetic events, including the thickening and invagination of the salivary gland placode, and then formed initial buds. The iE-SGs also differentiated into developing ducts structures and could develop to striated and excretory ducts when transplanted in vivo. RNA- seq revealed that iE-SGs had gene expression profiles similar to mouse embryonic SMGs. Thus, our study provided an easy and safe method to generate iE-SGs and offered possibilities for studying events during salivary gland morphogenesis in vitro
