Endothelial Shp2 deficiency controls alternative activation of macrophage preventing radiation-induced lung injury through Notch signaling

ABSTRACT: Radiation-induced lung injury is a common late side-effect of thoracic radiotherapy. The inflammatory microenvironment plays a key role in this process. Endothelial cells are the goalkeeper of inflammation. Endothelial dysfunction following leukocytes infiltrated is a prominent feature in the pathogenesis of radiation-induced lung injury. Tyrosine phosphatase Shp2 is a key regulator of endothelial functions and inflammation. Here, we established a clinical-mimicking mouse model of radiation-induced lung injury and found that Shp2 activity was elevated in endothelium after injury. Mice with endothelium-specific Shp2 deletion showed relieved collagen deposition along with disrupted radiation-induced Jag1 expression in the endothelium. Furthermore, endothelium-derived Jag1 activated the alternative activation of macrophages in vitro and in vivo by paracrine Notch signaling. Consistently, Notch pathway was significant activated by chest irradiation in the peripheral blood leukocytes of cancer patients. Collectively, this is the first demonstration of radiation-induced lung injury regulation by endothelial Shp2. Shp2 participates in the radiation-induced endothelial dysfunction and subsequently inflammatory microenvironment producing.

A human alveolus-on-chip model for studying radiation induced lung injury

Project description:Acute exposure to high-dose gamma radiation often results in radiation-induced lung injury (RILI), characterized by acute pneumonitis and subsequent lung fibrosis. A microfluidic organ-on-a-chip device consisting of human lung alveolar epithelium and pulmonary endothelium (Lung Alveolus Chip) is used to recapitulate acute, early stage RILI in vitro. This RNA-seq data captures that both the lung epithelium and endothelium in this model capture key hallmarks of this disease particularly, DNA damage, cellular hypertrophy, upregulation of inflammatory cytokines, and loss of barrier function within 6h of radiation exposure. The data also suggests that radiation affects the alveolar endothelium more significantly than the epithelium. The alveolus chips are exposed to radiation injury at 16 Gy and shows effects that resemble the human lung greater than animal preclinical models. These data demonstrate that the Lung Alveolus Chip provides a human relevant alternative approach for studying the molecular basis of acute RILI towards screening radiation countermeasure therapeutics.

A human alveolus-on-chip model for radiation induced lung injury

Project description:Acute exposure to high-dose gamma radiation can result in radiation-induced lung injury (RILI), characterized by acute pneumonitis and subsequent lung fibrosis. A microfluidic organ-on-a-chip lined by human lung alveolar epithelium interfaced with pulmonary endothelium (Lung Alveolus Chip) is used to model acute, early stage RILI in vitro. Both lung epithelium and endothelium exhibit DNA damage, cellular hypertrophy, upregulation of inflammatory cytokines, and loss of barrier function within 6h of radiation exposure, and greater damage is observed in the endothelium. The alveolus chips are exposed to radiation injury at 16 Gy and shows effects that resemble the human lung greater than animal preclinical models. The Alveolus Chip is also used to evaluate the potential ability of two drugs to suppress the effects of acute RILI. These data demonstrate that the Lung Alveolus Chip provides a human relevant alternative approach for studying the molecular basis of acute RILI towards screening radiation countermeasure therapeutics.

Genes regulated/modulated by jagged1 in endothelial cells during inflammation

Project description:Proinflammatory activation of endothelial cells leads to recruitment of leukocytes by upregulation of adhesion molecules and presentation of chemoattractants. In response to such activation there is also a strong shift in the endothelial expression of Notch ligands, with downregulation of Dll4 and a upregulation of JAG1. To assess whether Jagged1 would affect the endothelial activation profile, we suppressed JAG1 expression during IL-1β-induced activation by means of siRNA and performed a genome-wide transcriptome analysis. Our results show for the first time that Jagged1 modulates the transcription profile of activated endothelial cells and describe data that imply a role for Jagged1 in sharpening the inflammatory profile of the vasculature, giving it an edge towards leukocyte recruitment. These findings imply that Jagged1 might be a potential therapeutic target to attenuate inflammation and reduce tissue damage in inflammatory diseases.

Analysis of HUVEC secretome and histone N-terminal acetylation after Notch activation

Project description:Vasculature permeate our entire body and involved in homeostasis and progression of various disease. Endothelium is a backbone of cardiovascular system and endothelial disfunction is associated with most forms of cardiovascular disease from atherosclerosis to chronic heart failure. Decrease in shear stress, particularly due to disturbance of the blood flow by bends or vascular obstruction, lead to atherosclerosis and endothelial disfunction. Notch signaling may act as mechanosensor and assumed to be one of the central signal pathways associated with endothelial disfunction. Association of shear stress, Notch and endothelial dysfunction is well known, molecular mechanisms connected these factors still poorly understood. One might assume that long-term shear stress and dysregulation of Notch in endothelium cause changes in epigenomic profile. While epigenomic changes in shear stressed environment are known to be involved in endothelial disfunction, possible connection of Notch and epigenetic changes in endothelium has not yet been tested. Therefore, here we analyzed how activation of Notch signaling influence on histone code and secretome of endothelial cells in vitro. We found that activation of Notch increase level of N-acetylated forms of Histone 1: H1-0, H1-3, H1-4, H1-5, H1-10. These changes were also associated with changes in secretome profile of endothelium and might have broad biomedical significance in case of endothelial dysfunction.

Vascular niche induction of hematopoietic progenitors from pluripotent stem cells

Project description:Pluripotent stem cells (PSC) represent an alternative source of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). Clinical translation is impeded by limited engraftment of human (h)PSC-multipotent progenitor cells (MPP). This barrier suggests that additional cues are required for definitive hematopoiesis. We hypothesized that vascular niche producing Notch ligands Jagged-1 (JAG1) and Delta-like ligand-4 (DLL4) would drive definitive hematopoiesis. To test our hypothesis, hes2 human embryonic stem cells (hESC) 2 and Macaca nemestrina (Mn) iPSC line-7 were differentiated with cytokines Â± endothelial cells (EC), which express JAG1 and DLL4. EC co-culture supported emergence of 8-fold more CD34+CD45+ cells compared to co-culture with cytokines Â± ECs with JAG1 or DLL4 knockdown. EC-induced cells exhibit Notch activation and express HSC-specific targets of Notch signaling RUNX1 and GATA2. EC-induced PSC-MPP engraft at a higher level in NSG mice compared to cytokine-induced cells (10% >5 months), and selection increased engraftment (30%). Long-term engraftment and the myeloid-to-lymphoid ratio achieved with vascular niche induction is similar to levels achieved for cord blood MPP and up to 20-fold higher than hPSC-MPP engraftment. Our findings identify a previously underappreciated role for endothelial Notch ligands in PSC definitive hematopoiesis and production of long-term engrafting CD34+ cells and suggest they are critical for HSC emergence.

Endothelial Jagged1 levels and distribution are post-transcriptionally controlled by ZFP36 decay proteins

Project description:Vascular morphogenesis requires a delicate gradient of Notch signaling that is controlled, at least in part, by the distribution of ligands (Dll4 and Jagged1). How jagged1 (JAG1) expression is compartmentalized in the vascular plexus remains unclear. Here we showed that Jag1 mRNA is a direct target of zinc finger protein 36 (ZFP36), an RNA-binding protein involved in mRNA decay that we found robustly induced by VEGF. Endothelial cells lacking ZFP36 displayed high levels of JAG1 and increased angiogenic sprouting in vitro. Similarly, mice lackingZfp36in endothelial cells display mispatterned and increased levels of JAG1 in the developing retinal vascular plexus. Abnormal levels of JAG1 at the sprouting front altered NOTCH1 signaling, increasing the number of tip cells; a phenotype that was rescued by imposing haploinsufficiency ofJag1. Our findings reveal an important feedforward loop, whereby VEGF stimulates ZFP36, consequently suppressing Jag1 to enable adequate levels of Notch signaling during sprouting angiogenesis.

Radiation exposure elicits a neutrophil-driven response in healthy lung tissue that enhances metastatic colonization

Project description:Radiotherapy, a treatment modality received by more than half of all cancer patients, remains one of the most effective approaches to achieve local tumour control. Despite increased accuracy driven by technological advances, healthy tissue injury due to off-target radiation exposure can still occur. In this study, we sought to understand the biological effect of radiation-mediated injury to the lung in the context of cancer metastasis, since we had previously reported that tissue regeneration is a feature of the metastatic microenvironment of this organ. We have exposed healthy mouse lung tissue to radiation prior to the induction of metastasis and observed a strong enhancement of cancer cell growth. Lung tissue was preconditioned into a profoundly tumour-supportive microenvironment governed by enhanced regenerative Notch signalling. Most importantly, we found that locally activated neutrophils were key drivers of these tissue perturbations, significantly increasing the metastatic proficiency of irradiated lung tissue and endowing arriving cancer cells with an augmented stemness phenotype. We show that by preventing neutrophil-dependent Notch activation in the irradiated tissue, we were able to significantly offset the radiation-enhanced metastases. Mechanistically, we identified the release of neutrophil granules as the effectors of the pro-tumorigenic preconditioning of the irradiated lung tissue. These findings not only reveal a novel tumour-supportive function of neutrophils in the context of tissue-injury, but also have important clinical implications by suggesting targeting their activity could maximise the success of radiotherapy for the treatment of cancer.

Loss of Jagged1 in mature endothelial cells causes vascular dysfunction with alterations in smooth muscle phenotypes

Project description:Notch signaling is an evolutionarily conserved pathway that functions via direct cell-cell contact. The Notch ligand Jagged1 (Jag1) has been extensively studied in vascular development, particularly for its role in smooth muscle cell maturation. Endothelial cell-expressed Jag1 is essential for blood vessel formation by signaling to nascent vascular smooth muscle cells and promoting their differentiation. Given the established importance of Jag1 in endothelial cell/smooth muscle crosstalk during development, we sought to determine the extent of this communication in the adult vasculature for blood vessel function and homeostasis.
