Project description:The study analyzes analyzes gene expression changes in the ankle joint in mouse TNFa overexpression models with or without sphingosine kinase 1 activity. SphK1 is a sphingolipid enzyme that converts sphingosine to bioactive sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P). Recent data suggest a potential relationship between SphK1 and TNFα and have implicated SphK1/S1P in the development and progression of inflammation. Here we further study the relationship of TNFα and SphK1 using an in vivo model. Transgenic hTNFα mice, which develop a spontaneous arthritis (limited to paws) at 20 weeks, were crossed with SphK1 activity null mice (SphK1-/-) to study the development of inflammatory arthritis in the functional absence of SphK1. Results show that hTNF/SphK1-/- have significantly less severity and progression of arthritis and bone erosions as measured through micro-CT images. Additionally, less COX-2 protein, mTNFα transcript levels and fewer Th 17 cells were detected in the joints of hTNF/SphK1-/- compared to hTNF/SphK1+/+ mice. Microarray analysis of the ankle joint showed that hTNF/SphK1-/- mice have increased transcript levels of IL-6 and SOCS3 compared to hTNF/SphK1+/+ mice. Finally, fewer mature osteoclasts were detected in the ankle joints of hTNF/SphK1-/- mice compared to hTNF/SphK1+/+ mice. These data show that SphK1 plays a role in hTNFα induced inflammatory arthritis, potentially through a novel pathway involving IL-6 and SOCS3. Two wild-type replicates; three replicates of human TNFa transgene overexpression and normal sphingosine kinase 1; three replicates of human TNFa transgene overexpression and sphingosine kinase 1 null.

Project description:The oncogenic roles of Sphingosine kinase 1 (SphK1) in various cancers, including thyroid cancer, have been well demonstrated. However, miRNAs associated with the oncogenic roles of SphK1 remains largely unknown. The goal of this study is to detect the global gene and microRNA (miRNA) expression in response to Sphk1 over-expression and identify potential therapeutic targets. To achieve this, SphK1 was stably overexpressed in papillary thyroid cancer cell line TPC1. Then the mRNA and miRNA expression were quantified using digital gene expression (DGE) analysis and small RNA-seq in TPC1-Vector and TPC1-SphK1 cells, respectively. miRNA-mRNA interactions were explored by microT-CDS and the predicted networks were visualized using CytoScape. In this study, we found that over-expression of SphK1 differentially regulates 46 miRNA and 506 mRNAs expression in TPC1 cells. Combining bioinformatics prediction of mRNA targets and DGE data on mRNA expressions allowed to identify mRNA targets of deregulated miRNAs. The direct interaction between miR-144-3p and FN1 mRNA, which mediates the pro-invasive role of SphK1 in thyroid cancer cells, was experimentally validated. In general, our results provided a miRNA-mRNA regulatory network in response to SphK1 overexpression in thyroid cancer cells. We also demonstrated a role of miR-144-3p and FN1 in mediating oncogenic function of SphK1, which enhance the understanding of etiology of thyroid cancer.

Project description:Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P), a pro-tumor survival bioactive lysophospholipid, generated by sphingosine kinase 1 (SphK1), regulates lymphocyte egress into circulation via transducing S1P receptor 1 (S1PR1) signalling, and also plays a role in the differentiation of regulatory T cells and T helper-17 cells. However, the mechanisms by which receptor-independent SphK1/S1P signallng regulates anti-tumor T cell activity remain unknown. Using melanoma antigen gp100 reactive T cells deficient in Sphk1, we found that Pmel-Sphk1-/- T cells maintained central memory phenotype, showed higher mitochondrial respiration, and exhibited resistance to TGF-β mediated suppression. Mechanistically, we discovered a direct correlation between SphK1 generated intracellular S1P and PPARγ (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma) activity, which in turn regulate lipolysis in T cells. Genetic, molecular or pharmacologic inhibition of SphK1 or PPARγ improved metabolic fitness and anti-tumor activity of T cells. Further, inhibition of SphK1 and PD1 together led to long-term control of melanoma. Overall, these data highlight the clinical potential of targeting SphK1/S1P for improved anti-cancer adoptive T cell immunotherapy.

Project description:In numerous forms of organ injury, interstitial fibrosis is a final common pathway. Despite recent epidemiological studies, therapies to focus on fibrosis and to delay progressive renal failure are limited. Previously our group showed that sphingosine kinase 2 deficient-mice (SphK2-/-) develop less fibrosis in folic acid-induced or unilateral ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI)-induced kidney fibrosis models. Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) is produced by two sphingosine kinase isoforms (SphK1 and SphK2). S1P is involved in diverse functions, but the role of S1P produced by SphK2 is gathering attention as treatments focused on epigenetics have been developed. SphK2 is primarily located in the nucleus and S1P produced by SphK2 inhibits histone deacetylase (HDAC) and changes in histone acetylation status, which can lead to an altered target gene expression. We identified that bone marrow stromal cell antigen-1 (Bst1/CD157) is a gene related with kidney fibrosis based on the combination of genome-wide analysis and in vivo screening. SphK2 regulates Bst1 expression and Bst1-/- mice develop less fibrosis after unilateral IRI and are protected against renal bilateral IRI. Bone marrow chimera experiments further revealed the importance of Bst1 expression on hematopoietic cells. Furthermore we identified the role of Bst1 expression in neutrophils for inducing renal ischemia-reperfusion injury and fibrosis.

Project description:We identified sphingosine kinase 1 (SPHK1) as a top candidate. SPHK1-overexpression in human TNBC cell-line promotes spontaneous metastasis to lungs in nude mice. Moreover, genetic knockdown of SPHK1 in TNBC patient-derived xenograft (PDX) cells and TNBC cell-line decreases spontaneous metastasis to lungs in nude mice. SPHK1 regulates the FSCN1 gene expression in order to drive metastasis. Mechanistically, SPHK1 transcriptionally upregulates metastasis-promoting FSCN1 gene expression via NFκB activation to promote metastasis. SPHK1/NFκB/FSCN1 signaling pathway activation is associated with distance metastasis and poor clinical outcome in TNBC patients.

Project description:Increased endothelial permeability and failure to repair is the hallmark of several vascular diseases including acute lung injury (ALI). However, little is known about the intrinsic pathways that activate endothelial cell (EC) regenerative programs and thereby tissue repair. Studies have invoked a crucial role of sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) in resolving endothelial hyperpermeability through activation of the G-protein coupled receptor, sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 1 (S1PR1). Here, we addressed mechanisms of generation of S1PR1+ EC, which may prevent endothelial injury. Studies were made using inducible EC-S1PR1-/- (iEC-S1PR1-/-) mice and S1PR1-GFP reporter mice to trace the generation of S1PR1+ EC. We observed in a mouse model of endotoxemia that S1P generation induced the programming of S1PR1lo to S1PR1+ EC, which comprised 80% of lung EC. The transition of these cells was required for reestablishing the endothelial barrier. We also observed that conditional deletion of S1PR1 in EC increased vascular permeability. RNA-seq analysis of S1PR1+ EC showed enrichment of genes regulating S1P synthesis and transport, sphingosine kinase 1 (SPHK1) and SPNS2, respectively. The activation of transcription factors EGR1 and STAT3 were essential for transcribing SPHK1 and SPNS2, respectively, to increase S1P production that served to amplify S1PR1+ EC transition. Transplantation of S1PR1+ EC into injured lung vasculature restored endothelial integrity. Our findings show that generation of a S1PR1+ EC population activates the endothelial regenerative program mediating vascular endothelial repair, thus raising the possibility of harnessing this pathway to restore vascular homeostasis in inflammatory injury.

Project description:Aberrant proliferation of pulmonary arterial smooth muscle (PASMCs) cells are a defining characteristic of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and leads to increased vascular resistance, elevated pulmonary pressure, and right heart failure. The Sphingosine kinase 1 (SPHK1)/Sphingosine-1 phosphate/ Sphingosine-1 phosphate receptor 2 pathway promotes vascular remodeling and induces PAH. The aim of this study was to identify genes and cellular processes that are modulated by over-expression of SPHK1 in human PASMCs (hPASMCs). RNA was purified and submitted for RNA sequencing to identify differentially expressed genes. Using a corrected p-value threshold of <0.05, there were 294 genes significantly up-regulated while 179 were significantly down-regulated. Predicted effects of these differentially expressed genes was evaluated using the freeware tool Enrichr to assess general gene set over-representation (enrichment) and Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA™) for upstream regulator predictions. We found a strong change in genes that regulated the cellular immune response. IL6, STAT1, and PARP9, were elevated in response to SPHK1 over-expression in hPASMCs. The gene set enrichment mapped to a few immune modulatory signaling networks, including IFNG. Furthermore, STAT1 protein was elevated in primary hPASMCs isolated from PAH patients. In conclusion, these data suggest a role of Sphk1 regulates pulmonary vascular immune response in PAH.
