Expression data from LAM-associated fibroblasts and normal human lung fibroblasts co-cultured with TSC2-/- 621-101 cells

ABSTRACT: Patients with Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) develop nodules of cells within the lung parenchyma. These lesions contain both TSC2-/- LAM cells, and wild type fibroblasts. We investigated the effect of TSC2-/- cells on the transcriptional profile of both normal fibroblasts and fibroblasts isolated from LAM patient tissue (LAFs) using Affymetrix Gene Chip arrays, to identify upregulated pathways which could contribute to LAM pathology. We used Affymetrix microarrays to detail the changes in the global profile of gene expression in fibroblasts following co-culture with 621-101 cells, and identified upregulation of several chemokines, indicating that the fibroblasts had adopted an inflammatory phenotype.

Rapamycin-insensitive up-regulation of MMP2 and other genes in TSC2- deficient LAM-like cells

Project description:Rationale: Increased matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) activity has been implicated in the pathogenesis of lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM). Objectives: To investigate how TSC1 or TSC2 deficiency alters MMP expression and regulation. Methods: We studied immortalized cells that lack TSC2 derived from an angiomyolipoma (AML) of a LAM patient, and a TSC2 add back derivative; and murine embryonic fibroblast cells that lack Tsc1 or Tsc2 and respective controls. Global gene expression analysis was carried out in the AML and derivative cell lines. MMP levels in the conditioned media from these cells were analyzed by zymography and ELISA. Measurements and Main Results: We found increased MMP-2 expression in cells lacking TSC1/TSC2 compared to their respective controls by zymography. MMP-2 overproduction by these cells was not affected by rapamycin treatment. Gene expression analysis confirmed increased MMP-2 gene expression that was not affected by rapamycin. Furthermore, multiple other genes were found to be over-expressed in rapamycin-treated TSC2-deficient cells compared to TSC2+ cells. Conclusions: We conclude that TSC1/TSC2 deficiency leads to MMP-2 overproduction that is rapamycin insensitive, and that several genes exhibit similar patterns suggesting TSC1/TSC2 dependent but mTOR independent pathways may be involved in the pathogenesis of LAM.

Transcriptomic Differences Associated with TSC2 Gene Expression Loss in Lymphangioleiomyomatosis [mouse cells]

Project description:Pulmonary Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM), a rare lung disease that affects predominantly women, is characterized by proliferation of smooth muscle-like cells in the lungs, destruction of lung tissue, upregulation of VEGF-D, and growth of lymphatic vessels inducing a loss of pulmonary function. TSC2 gene mutations that render TSC2 inactive are a common finding associated with LAM. To better understand the function of the TSC2 gene, we sought to characterize differences in the transcriptome of cells where TSC2 is inactivated. RNA-Seq was used to measure transcript expression differences between TSC2-null mouse embryonic fibroblasts and TSC2-expressed mouse embryonic fibroblasts. The Illumina TruSeq method was used to prepare stranded poly(A)-selected RNA-Seq libraries, and 100bp paired-end reads were generated with an Illumina Hi-Seq 2500 instrument in high output mode. RNA-Seq data was analyzed using kallisto (http://pachterlab.github.io/kallisto/) and R.

To better understand the function of the TSC2 gene in LAM , we sought to characterize differences in the transcriptome of cells where TSC2 is inactivated. RNA-Seq was used to measure transcript expression differences between a human TSC2-null angiolipoma cell line derived from an individual with LAM, and the same cell line with re-expressed TSC2 to serve as a control. The Illumina TruSeq method was used to prepare poly(A)-selected stranded RNA-Seq libraries, and 100bp paired-end reads were generated with an Illumina Hi-Seq 2500 instrument in high output mode.

Transcript profiling of Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) nodules in Human Patients

Project description:Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is characterized by cystic lung destruction caused by smooth, muscle-like LAM cells which have mutations in the tumor suppressor genes Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC) 1 or 2, and the capacity to metastasize. Since chemokines and their receptors function in chemotaxis of metastatic cells, we hypothesized that LAM cells may be recruited by chemokine(s) in the lung. Quantification of 25 chemokines in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid from LAM patients and healthy volunteers revealed that concentrations of MCP-1/CCL2, GROa/CXCL1 and ENA-78/CXCL5 were significantly higher in samples from LAM patients than healthy volunteers. In this transcript analysis, expression of chemokine and chemokine receptor mRNA in LAM cells differed from those in melanoma and smooth muscle cells. Subsequent immunohistochemistry of lung sections from 30 LAM patients confirmed protein expression of chemokines and these receptors varied among LAM patient and differed from that seen in breast cancer and melanoma cells. . In vitro, MCP-1/CCL2 induced selective migration of cells showing loss of heterozygosity of TSC2 from a heterogeneous populations of cells grown from explanted LAM lungs. In addition, the frequencies of single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the MCP-1 gene promoter region differed significantly in LAM patients and healthy volunteers (p=0.018), and one polymorphism was associated significantly more frequently with the decline of lung function. These observations are consistent with the notion that chemokines such as MCP-1 may serve to specify site of LAM cell metastasis. Keywords: Human patient sample comparison with cell lines The study is of case/control design with biological replication. Biopsies of nodules from 14 LAM patients (cases) are compared with cultured cell lines (controls) with similar properties.

Expression data from Tsc2-null cell line ELT3, and the ELT3-derivative rapamycin-resistant cell line ELT3-245

Project description:Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC) and Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) are caused by inactivating mutations in TSC1 or TSC2, leading to mTORC1 hyperactivation. The mTORC1 inhibitors rapamycin and analogs (rapalogs) are approved for treating of TSC and LAM. Due to their cytostatic and not cytocidal action, discontinuation of treatment leads to tumor regrowth and decline in pulmonary function. Therefore, life-long rapalog treatment is proposed for the control of TSC and LAM lesions, which increases the chances for the development of acquired drug resistance. Understanding the signaling perturbations leading to rapalog resistance is critical for the development of better therapeutic strategies. We developed the first Tsc2-null rapamycin-resistant cell line, ELT3-245, which is highly tumorigenic in mice, and refractory to rapamycin treatment. In vitro ELT3-245 cells exhibit enhanced anchorage-independent cell survival, resistance to anoikis, and loss of epithelial markers. A key alteration in ELT3-245 is increased β-catenin signaling. We propose that a subset of cells in TSC and LAM lesions have additional signaling aberrations, thus possess the potential to become resistant to rapalogs. Alternatively, when challenged with rapalogs TSC-null cells are reprogrammed to express mesenchymal-like markers. These signaling changes could be further exploited to induce clinically-relevant long-term remissions.

Estrogen and mTORC1 dependent genes in the uterus of uterine-specific Tsc2-null mice

Project description:To uncover genes regulated by mTORC1 and estradiol in uterine Tsc2-null LAM like cells, we performed RNAseq on uteri from 12-week old wild-type (WT) and uterine-specific Tsc2-null (KO) mice that were either untreated (intact), oopherectomized (ovx) or oopherectomized + treated with 17Î²-estradiol pellets (E2) for 8 weeks. We identified genes that were both estradiol- and TSC2-mediated. Uterine mRNA profiles of 12 week old wild type (WT) and uterine-specific Tsc2-null (KO) mice in the presence or absence of estradiol were generated using Illumina HiSeq2500

Therapeutic benefit of rapamycin combined with clorgyline or rasagiline in an immunodeficient LAM model

Project description:Inhibition of mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) constitutes the standard of care of lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM). However, this treatment does not eradicate diseased cells and some patients show progressive decline of lung function. This study provides preclinical evidence for beneficial therapeutic approaches in combination with rapamycin. LAM tumorigenesis is reduced in vivo (ELT3-V3 tumor xenografts) using approved drugs for other human diseases and targeting monoamine oxidase A (MAO-A; clorgyline) or MAO-B (rasagiline).
