Exon level expression profile of submandibular glands in female MyD88+/+ and MyD88−/− NOD mice.

ABSTRACT: Transcriptome analysis of submandibular glands in female MyD88+/+ and MyD88−/− NOD mice. Sjögren's syndrome (SS) is an autoimmune disease characterized by dysfunction of salivary glands (SGs) and lacrimal glands, which is caused by chronic inflammation associated with autoantibody and autoreactive lymphocyte infiltration. The pathogenic mechanism of SS has not been fully elucidated. Infiltrated lymphocytes form regularized structures similar to lymphoid follicles of secondary lymphoid organs, such as T/B cell compartments, high endothelial venules (HEVs), lymphatic vessels, and germinal centers, therefore being believed as an ectopic lymphoid tissue called tertiary lymphoid organs (TLO). We previously found that deletion of the Toll-like receptor/IL-1 receptor (TLR/IL-1R) adaptor molecule gene Myd88 in SS model mice NOD reduced the frequency of lymphocyte infiltration and HEV formation in SGs. In this study, we analyzed the effect of MyD88 deficiency on lymphoid follicle formation in SGs of NOD mice. Microarray analysis showed decreased expression of genes related to TLO, such as Cxcl13 and Cxcr5, in Myd88-deficient SGs. These results indicate that deficiency of TLR/IL-1R signaling decrease gene expression ot chemokines in SGs, suggesting MyD88-dependent signaling is directly involved in formation of lymphoid follicles in SS.

MyD88/IL-1R axis sustains immunosuppressive function of TAMs by regulating PD-1 expression in melanoma

Project description:Macrophages are critical mediators of tissue homeostasis, cell proliferation, angiogenesis and tumor metastasis. The presence of TAMs is generally associated with tumor-promoting immunosuppressive function in solid tumors. These macrophages are widely acknowledged as one of the central suppressive populations within tumors, blocking effective T-cell responses. In the present study, we examined the transcriptional landscape of adaptor molecules downstream of TLRs in human cancers and found that higher expression of MYD88 is very well correlated with the tumor progression. In addition, we also found that mouse MyD88 but not TRIF, is essential for tumor progression and angiogenesis in melanoma. Interestingly, MyD88 is critical to maintain the immunosuppressive phenotype of TAMs in the tumors. Moreover, we found that interleukin-1 receptor (IL-1R)-Myd88 axis regulates programmed cell death (PD)-1 expression on TAMs by promoting the recruitment of phospho-NF-κB p65 to the CR-C region of the Pdcd1 promoter. Using myeloid-cell specific MyD88 mutant mice, we also showed that MyD88 expression in myeloid cells alone is sufficient to drive the melanoma progression. Thus, IL-1R/MyD88 axis maintains the immunosuppressive function of tumor-tissue macrophages to promote tumor growth by regulating PD-1/PD-L1 expression

The transcriptome of paired major and minor salivary gland tissue in patients with primary Sjögren's syndrome

Project description:While all salivary glands (SGs) can be involved in primary Sjögren’s syndrome (pSS), their respective role in pathogenesis remains unclear. To assess immunopathway activation in paired parotid and labial gland tissue from biopsy-positive and biopsy-negative pSS and non-SS sicca patients, paraffin-embedded, paired parotid and labial salivary gland tissue and peripheral blood mononuclear cells were obtained from 39 pSS and 20 non-SS sicca patients. The patients were subdivided based on fulfillment of ACR-EULAR criteria and histopathology and the samples were analyzed for differentially expressed genes (DEGs). The principal component analysis of SG gene expression could only separate biopsy-positive pSS from non-SS sicca patients. However, when comparing the transcriptome of biopsy-positive pSS and biopsy-negative non-SS sicca patients, 1235 and 624 DEGs (FDR<-1 or >1) were identified for parotid and labial glands, respectively. The number of DEGs between biopsy negative pSS and non-SS sicca patients was scarce. The overall, transcript expression levels correlated strongly between parotid and labial glands (R2=0.86, p‐value<0.0001). Gene signatures present in both glands of biopsy‐positive pSS patients included IFN‐α signaling, IL-12/IL-18 signaling, CD3/CD28 T-cell activation, CD40 signaling in B-cells, DN2 B-cells, and FcRL4+ B-cells. Signature scores varied considerably amongst pSS patients. In conclusion, the transcriptomes of paired major and minor SGs in pSS were overall comparable, although significant inter-individual heterogeneity in immunopathway activation existed. The SG transcriptome of biopsy-negative pSS was indistinguishable from non-SS sicca patients. The different patterns of SG immunopathway activation in pSS argue for personalized treatment approaches.

Quantitative proteomic analysis after neuroprotective MyD88 inhibition in the retinal degeneration 10 mouse

Project description:Progressive dysfunction and death of photoreceptors occurs in blinding diseases such as age-related macular degeneration and retinitis pigmentosa. The MyD88 protein is a central adaptor molecule for innate immune system Toll-like receptors (TLR) and interleukin-1 receptor (IL-1R), which are active in retinal disease and induce cytokine secretion from inflammatory cells. We recently demonstrated that inhibiting MyD88 in mouse models of retinal degeneration led to increased rod photoreceptor survival, which was associated with altered cytokine expression and increased neuroprotective microglia. However, additional molecular changes associated with MyD88 inhibitor-mediated neuroprotection are not known. Quantitative proteomics using iTRAQ LC-MS/MS is a high-throughput method ideal for providing new information about the molecular mechanisms contributing to photoreceptor protection. In this study, we used isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantification (iTRAQ) labeling followed by liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) for quantitative proteomic analysis on the rd10 mouse model of retinal degeneration to identify protein pathways changed by MyD88 inhibition. A total of 42 proteins were differentially expressed in retinas from mice treated with MyD88 inhibitor compared with control. Notably, increased expression of multiple crystallins and chaperones that respond to cellular stress and have anti-apoptotic properties were identified in the MyD88 inhibited mice. Additional differentially expressed biological processes included pyrophosphatase activity and peptide biosynthesis. These data suggest that inhibiting MyD88 may enhance chaperone-mediated tissue protective pathways. Therefore, this study provides new insight into molecular events that contribute to photoreceptor protection from modulating inflammation.

IRAK-4- and MyD88-dependent pathways are essential for the removal of developing autoreactive B cells in humans

Project description:Most autoreactive B cells are normally counterselected during early B cell development. To determine whether Toll-like receptors (TLRs) regulate the removal of autoreactive B lymphocytes, we tested the reactivity of recombinant antibodies from single B cells isolated from patients deficient for IL-1R-associated kinase (IRAK)-4, myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88) and UNC-93B. Indeed, all TLRs except TLR3 require IRAK-4 and MyD88 to signal and UNC-93B-deficient cells are unresponsive to TLR3, TLR7, TLR8 and TLR9. All patients suffered from defective central and peripheral B cell tolerance checkpoints resulting in the accumulation of large numbers of autoreactive mature naïve B cells in their blood. Hence, TLR7, TLR8, and TLR9 may prevent the recruitment of developing autoreactive B cells in healthy donors. Paradoxically, IRAK-4-, MyD88- and UNC-93B-deficient patients did not display autoreactive antibodies in their serum nor developed autoimmune diseases, suggesting that IRAK-4, MyD88 and UNC-93B pathway blockade may thwart autoimmunity in humans.

Autocrine IL-1α mediates NF-κB activation by oncogenic ras in keratinocytes

Project description:Constitutively active RAS plays a central role in the development of skin cancer in the classical two stage skin carcinogenesis in mice and in a number of human cancers. Ras-mediated tumor formation is commonly associated with upregulation of cytokines and chemokines that mediate an inflammatory response considered relevant to oncogenesis. MyD88 is a crucial intermediate in the expression of multiple innate immune responders through signaling from the Toll-like/IL-1R family. We report that mice ablated for MyD88 or the IL-1R are resistant to topical skin carcinogenesis, and cultured MyD88-/- keratinocytes transduced with an oncogenic ras vector form only a few small tumors in orthotopic grafts. Initiated keratinocytes arising from oncogenic activation of ras are hyperproliferative but also resist signals for induced differentiation and upregulate a host of pro-inflammatory genes. Ras-transduced MyD88-/- keratinocytes are also hyperproliferative but the differentiation response is intact and pro-inflammatory genes are not upregulated. Using both genetic and pharmacological approaches, we find that in keratinocytes, the differentiation and immune regulation functions mediated by oncogenic ras require the establishment of an autocrine loop through IL-1α and its receptor leading to NF-κB activation. In the absence of MyD88 or IL-1R, this loop cannot be established. Further, blocking the IL-1a mediated NF-κB activation in ras-transduced wildtype keratinocytes corrects the defect in both differentiation response and proinflammatory gene expression. Collectively, these results demonstrate that ras activation converts normal keratinocytes to an initiated phenotype through a series of potentially reversible feedback signals that provide therapeutic opportunities through inhibition of IL-1 signaling. Gene expression comparison of wild type ras-transformed keratinocytes untreated (n=3) or treated (n=3) in vitro with the IL1R antagonist Anakinra.

Multi-omics profiling of patients with primary Sjogren's syndrome

Project description:Multi-omics study was conducted to elucidate the crucial molecular mechanisms of primary Sjögren’s syndrome (SS) pathology. We generated multiple data set from well-defined patients with SS, which includes whole-blood transcriptomes, serum proteomes and peripheral immunophenotyping. Based on our newly generated data, we performed an extensive bioinformatic investigation. Our integrative analysis identified SS gene signatures (SGS) dysregulated in widespread omics layers, including epigenomes, mRNAs and proteins. SGS predominantly involved the interferon signature and ADAMs substrates. Besides, SGS was significantly overlapped with SS-causing genes indicated by a genome-wide association study and expression trait loci analyses. Combining the molecular signatures with immunophenotypic profiles revealed that cytotoxic CD8 T cells were associated with SGS. Further, we observed the activation of SGS in cytotoxic CD8 T cells isolated from patients with SS. Our multi-omics investigation identified gene signatures deeply associated with SS pathology and showed the involvement of cytotoxic CD8 T cells. These integrative relations across multiple layers will facilitate our understanding of SS at the system level. Proteomics and FACS data will be found in Synapse. https://www.synapse.org/#!Synapse:syn8483276
