Integrin αV as a potential target in aortic aneurysm and dissection

ABSTRACT: Thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA) is a perilous disease that can lead to aortic dissection (AD), the pathophysiological mechanisms of which remain largely elusive. To improve our understanding of the molecular mechanism underlying TAA, we conducted a tandem mass tag (TMT)-based proteomics analysis and identified two down-regulated proteins, integrin αV, and integrin αL, in serum samples from patients with type A aortic dissection. We confirmed that integrin αV is extensively expressed in the aortic media, and its expression decreases after dissection, whereas the expression of integrin αL showed no significant alteration. Subsequently, by employing a mouse model of TAA induced by β-Aminopropionitrile (BAPN), we discovered that the mice treated with integrin αV inhibitors Cilengitide or SB273005 developed dramatically expansive ascending TAA, accompanied by exacerbated disorganization or loss of elastic fibers. Bulk RNA sequencing results further indicated that the treatment with integrin αV inhibitors exacerbates the pro-inflammatory response in mouse TAA development. These data suggest that integrin αV may be a novel target for TAA intervention. However, it also raises concerns about exposure to integrin αV inhibitors, which are conducted in serious cancer clinical trials, may pose a potential risk of developing aortic aneurysm (AA)/AD.

Control of basal-type prostate cancers with a bispecific integrin α5β1/αv antibody

Project description:Integrin α5β1 and αv crosstalk in chemotaxis and clonogenic survival of prostate cancer cells is abrogated by a bispecific α5β1/αv antibody (BsAbα5β1/αv), which uniquely induces internalization and lysosomal degradation of target integrins. We hypothesized that the BsAbα5β1/αv inactivates pathological mechanosignaling pathways that correlate with integrin expression from patient samples. Mechanistic studies indicate that the BsAbα5β1/αv uniquely reverses YAP, beta-catenin and FAK nuclear localization compared to monospecific integrin α5β1 and αv antibody controls in basal-type androgen-receptor negative prostate cancer cells. Dual integrin αv and α5 knockdown alone phenocopied the BsAbα5β1/αv effect. Following BsAbα5β1/αv treatment, ATAC-seq studies indicated the chromatin accessibility to TEAD and AP-1 family members was markedly reduced. In vitro and in vivo RNA-seq indicated down-regulation of Myc/E2F, TGF-beta and epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) and upregulation of Type I and II interferon transcriptomic pathways. The BsAbα5β1/αv induced CXCL10 and CCL5 cytokine secretion, immune-infiltration of tumors, and natural-killer cell-mediated elimination of the basal-type prostate cancer xenografts in nude mice. αv integrin was highly expressed and principally correlated with the Myc signaling pathway in rapid autopsy tissue microarrays, consistent with correlative data from the SU2C metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer and DKFZ early-onset prostate cancer cohorts. These studies connect integrin signaling with the central biology of basal-type and castration-resistant prostate cancer and define a novel therapeutic strategy that controls critical immunosuppressive pathways.

Dissecting aortic aneurysm in Marfan syndrome is associated with losartan-sensitive transcriptomic modulation of aortic cells

Project description:To improve our limited understanding of the pathogenesis of thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA) leading to acute aortic dissection, we used single-cell RNA sequencing to profile disease-relevant transcriptomic changes of aortic cell populations in a well-characterized mouse model of the most commonly diagnosed form of Marfan syndrome (MFS). As result,MFSmod were identified only in the aorta of Fbn1mgR/mgR mice. In situ hybridizations of diagnostic transcripts located MFSmod cells to the intima of Fbn1mgR/mgR aortas. Consistent with angiotensin II type I receptor (At1r) contribution to TAA development, MFSmod cells were absent in the aorta of Fbn1mgR/mgR mice treated with the At1r antagonist losartan. Altogether, our findings indicate that a discrete dynamic alteration of aortic cell identity is associated with dissecting TAA in MFS mice and increased risk of aortic dissection in MFS patients.

Fibroblast SPP1 mediates ECM deposition and inhibits SMC contractility in MFS aortic aneurysm

Project description:Mutations in the Fbn1 gene cause Marfan Syndrome (MFS) and are associated with excessive transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) signalling activation, which contributes to extracellular matrix (ECM) homeostasis disruption, thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA) and dissection development. In this study, we aimed to explore the underlying events contributing to ECM metabolism imbalance and TAA and dissection formation in MFS. We performed sequencing analysis and investigated differentially expressed genes as well as cellular communication using CellChat. Fourteen ECM-related differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified. Among the 14 genes, secreted phosphoprotein 1 (Spp1) was involved in multiple pathological processes. We then stimulated primary mouse perivascular fibroblasts and aortic SMCs with recombinant Spp1 and recorded increased collagen expression in fibroblasts and decreased expression of Acta2 and Tagln in SMCs. We also investigated SPP1 levels in healthy controls and patients with TAA and found that elevated SPP1 levels were associated with an increased risk of TAA. Our results have indicated that Spp1 regulates ECM changes in fibroblasts and SMCs contractility during TAA. We believe that our study makes a significant contribution to the literature because our results suggest that Spp1 may serve as a potential target for TAA treatment.

17 -estradiol impedes aortic root dilation and rupture in male Marfan mice

Project description:Thoracic aortic aneurysms have a higher prevalence in male patients compared to female patients. Marfan syndrome causes a hereditary form of TAA with dilation of the aortic root. Male patients with Marfan syndrome are more likely than women to have aortic dilation and dissection and mouse models of Marfan syndrome demonstrate larger aortic roots in males compared to females even after adjustment for body size. Similar sex disparities are present in patients and models of abdominal aortic aneurysms where estrogen has been demonstrated to attenuate aneurysm formation perhaps through anti-inflammatory mechanisms. In this study we demonstrate the effects of estrogen on aortic dilation and rupture in a Marfan mouse model and we investigate if these effects operate through suppression of complement components of the immune system.

PP2A attenuates thoracic aneurysm and dissection in mouse models of Marfan syndrome [RNA-seq]

Project description:Recent studies show that hyperactivation of mTOR signaling plays a causal role in the development of thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA) and dissection (AAD). Modulation of Protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) activity has been shown to be of significant therapeutic value. In light of the effects that PP2A can exert on mTOR pathway, we hypothesized that PP2A activation by small molecule activators of PP2A (SMAPs) could mitigate AA progression in Marfan Syndrome (MFS).

miRNA expression profiles of aneurysmal tissues

Project description:To identify miRNAs which could be involved in TAA (Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm) pathogenesis, we first performed miRNAs microarrays using the aortic media of healthy controls and TAA patients. 473 miRNAs were detected in at least half samples. Among them, 232 miRNAs were differentially expressed with adjusted p value < 0.05 and log2 transformed fold change > 0.5 or < -0.5.

The melanoma cell line MDA-MB-435 adhesome in long-term culture and its comparison to the adhesome upon integrin αV knockdown

Project description:Using mass spectrometry–based proteomics, we analysed the components of integrin adhesion complexes of MDA-MB-435S cells and two MDA-MB-435S-derived integrin αV-specific shRNA-expressing cell clones. Among integrins, we detected αV and β5 integrin subunits in the MDA-MB-435S adhesome, thus showing that in long term culture these cells use preferentially integrin αVβ5 for adhesion. Our data represents the first published adhesome of αVβ5 integrin heterodimer.
