Project description:The neuroinflammation and peripheral immune response following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) aggravates early brain injury and lead to poor prognosis. Cross-talk between brain and cervical lymph nodes (CLNs) plays a crucial role in neuroinflammation and neurological diseases-associated brain injury. However, whether CLNs participate in brain damage and how injured brain activates immune system in SAH remain unclear. Previously, we reported that extravasated erythrocytes are drained into CLNs early following SAH. Here, we demonstrated that the removal of CLNs attenuated neuroinflammation and neurological deficits in 2 mouse models of SAH. Interestingly, we found that extravasated erythrocytes in CLNs following SAH were significantly engulfed by LYVE-1+ lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) in both mandibular and deep CLNs. Single-cell RNA sequencing of mandibular LNs revealed that the medullary LEC is the primary LEC subset to degrade erythrocytes via lysosome protease cathepsin S. LECs treated by erythrocytes in vitro leaded to increasing the expression of genes related to inflammatory response, chemokines and lysosome protease cathepsin S. Importantly, deficiency of cathepsin S specifically in LECs using transgenic mice or blockage of cathepsin S by its inhibitor reduced SAH-induced brain damage. These results revealed a mechanism of how extravasated erythrocytes triggers a CLN-mediated inflammatory response and the aggravation of brain injury in SAH, and target this process may become effective therapeutic strategies to alleviate SAH pathology.

Project description:Kaposi sarcoma is the most common cancer in AIDS patients and is typified by red skin lesions.The disease is caused by the KSHV virus (HHV8) and is recognisable by its distinctive red skin lesions. The lesions are KSHV infected spindle cells expressing markers of the lymphatic endothelial and blood vessel endothelial cells as well as other cell types. The effects of KSHV infection of lymphatic endothelial cells (LEC) cultured in 3D matrix for three days were assayed using Affymetrix hgu133plus2 chips.

Project description:Purpose: The rediscovery of meningeal lymphatic vessels (MLVs) suggests a potential linkage between brain tumors and cervical lymph nodes (LNs). In this study, we investigated whether and how meningeal lymphatics regulate the metastasis of brain tumor cells. Experimental Design: We first examined the pattern of MLVs and LNs after tumor cells were injected into the cisterna magna (i.c.m.) or subdural space of mice. The meninges were isolated and analyzed by whole-mount immunofluorescence staining. LN metastasis was analyzed by detecting GFP+ tumor cells. Then we used inducible knock-out mice and AAV-VEGF-C delivery system to study the function of MLVs in mediating the metastasis of brain tumor cells. Finally, RNA-seq was used to determine the expression profiles of meningeal lymphatic endothelial cells (mLECs) in mice with or without tumors. The roles of the endothelial nitric oxide synthetase (eNOS) were evaluated both genetically and pharmacologically in vivo. Results: Meningeal lymphangiogenesis induced by GL261 and B16 tumors was correlated with dCLN swelling and metastasis. dCLN metastasis was suppressed in MLV-defective mice, while promoted in AAV-VEGF-C-treated mice. In addition, we found that VEGF-C/VEGFR3 signaling regulated both meningeal and tumor lymphangiogenesis. Tumor-associated mLECs have a distinct transcriptomic signature, which highly express eNOS. Furthermore, genetic or pharmacological inhibition of eNOS significantly suppressed meningeal lymphangiogenesis and dCLN metastasis. Conclusions: The meningeal lymphatic vasculature mediates the metastasis of brain tumors to cervical LNs, mainly through a VEGF-C/VEGFR3-eNOS signaling pathway, suggesting that MLV may be a potential therapeutic target for the extracranial metastasis of brain tumors.

Project description:Kaposi sarcoma is the most common cancer in AIDS patients and is typified by red skin lesions. The disease is caused by the KSHV virus (HHV8) and is recognizable by its distinctive red skin lesions. The lesions are KSHV infected spindle cells, most commonly the lymphatic endothelial and blood vessel endothelial cells (LEC and BEC), plus surrounding stroma. The effects of KSHV infection of LECs were assayed using Affymetrix hgu133plus2 chips at 6 and 72 hours post infection. There were n=4 each of lymphatic endothelial cells (LEC) following 6 hours of culture, LEC following 6 hours post KSHV infection, LEC following 72 hours of culture, and LEC following 72 hours post KSHV infection.

Project description:The diagnosis of cerebral vasospasm after Subarachnoid-Hemorrhage is currently very difficult, additional tools such as blood biomarkers are necessary. We tested the ability of gene expression profiles of blood cells to predict vasospasm. 32 patients suffering subarachnoid-hemorrhage were included in this prospective monocentre study. They were grouped according to have a complicated cerebral vasospasm (Vasospasm) or not (Control) and Paired according to age (+/- 10 years), sex, Fisher grade (+/- 1), location, smoking (at least 3 first parameters). Gene expression profiles of blood cells were determined using 25,000~gene microarray. Blood sample: 2.5 mL harvested in PAXgene® Blood RNA tubes (PreAnalytix) RNA extraction: PAXgene® Blood RNA kit (Qiagen). We used a Universel Reference RNA (Stratagene). RNA amplification and labelling: kit Amino Allyl MessageAmp II (Ambion). We hybridized 4 microarrays per patient using pangenomic microarrays from the "Réseau National des Génopôles" (Illkirch, France). 2 slides were hybridized with reference RNA labelled Cy3 and patient RNA labelled Cy5, and 2 slides were hybridized with reference RNA labelled Cy5 and patient RNA labelled Cy3. Hybridation : Agilent protocol with few modifications : 750 ng of each labelled RNA were hubriddized at 60°C during 17 hours in an Aglient hybridization oven. After washings, Slides were scanned with a GenePix 4000B scanner (Molecular Devices). Image intensity data were extracted with GenePix Pro 6.0 analysis software. Quantification of Cy3 and Cy5 and selection of good spots were performed using the MAIA software (Novikov E and Barillot E. Software package for automatic microarray image analysis (MAIA). The ACUITY software was then used to normalize log ratios Cy3/Cy5 with Lowess non linear normalization, to filter out genes not present in at least 3 slides out of 4, to evaluate the reproducibility of the 4 microarrays of each patient (hierarchical clustering, Self Organizing Maps). Statistical analyses to insure reproducibility was performed using Excel (correlation coefficients, ANOVA). Only slides that passed all reprocubility tests were validated.
