Transcriptomic analysis of human coronary artery endothelial cells stimulated with TNF-alpha in the presence and absence of ACSL3 siRNA

ABSTRACT: TNF-alpha has a number of pro-atherogenic effects in macrovascular endothelial cells, including induction of leukocyte adhesion molecules and chemokines. We investigated the role of acyl-CoA synthetase 3 (ACSL3) in the response of cultured human macrovascular endothelial cells to TNF-alpha. TNF-alpha induced ACSL3 both in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and in human coronary artery endothelial cells (HCAECs). RNA sequencing demonstrated that knockdown of ACSL3 had no marked effects on the TNF-alpha transcriptome in HCAECs. Instead, ACSL3 was required for TNF-alpha-induced lipid droplet formation from fatty acids.

Project description:Cigarette smoke (CS) has been reported to affect the adhesion of monocytes to endothelial cells, a critical step in atherogenesis. Using an in vitro adhesion assay together with innovative computational systems biology approaches to analyze omics data, our study aimed at investigating CS-induced mechanisms by which monocyte-endothelial cell adhesion is promoted. Disease-relevant primary human coronary artery endothelial cells (HCAECs) were treated for 4 hours with (1) conditioned media of human monocytic Mono Mac-6 (MM6) cells preincubated with low or high concentrations of aqueous CS extract (sbPBS) from reference cigarette 3R4F for 2 hours (indirect treatment, I), (2) unconditioned media similarly prepared, however without MM6 cells (direct treatment, D), or (3) freshly generated sbPBS (fresh direct treatment, FD). sbPBS promoted MM6 cells-HCAECs adhesion following I and FD, but not D. In I, the effect was mediated at a low concentration through activation of vascular inflammation processes promoted in HCAECs by a paracrine effect of the soluble mediators secreted by sbPBS-treated MM6 cells. Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha major inducer, was actually shed by unstable CS compound-activated TNFalpha-converting enzyme. In FD, the effect was triggered at a high concentration that also induced some toxicity. This effect was mediated through an yet unknown mechanism associated with a stress damage response promoted in HCAECs by unstable CS compounds present in freshly generated sbPBS, which had decayed in D unconditioned media. In conclusion, aqueous CS extract directly and indirectly promotes monocytic cell-endothelial cell adhesion in vitro via distinct concentration-dependent mechanisms. Samples from E-MTAB-3644 dataset correspond to 3R4F sbPBS15 and PBS15 (vehicle control: 15% v/v). In the E-MTAB-3923 dataset, samples correspond to THS2.2 abPBS15, THS2.2 abPBS75 and PBS75 (75% v/v). All THS2.2 abPBS15 from E-MTAB-3923 must be compared with their respective control, PBS15 from E-MTAB-3644; while THS2.2 abPBS75 from E-MTAB-3923 must be compared with their respective control, PBS75 from E-MTAB-3923.
