Project description:Gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH) significantly inhibits proliferation of a proportion of cancer cell lines by activating GnRH receptor-G protein signaling. Therefore, manipulation of GnRH receptor signaling may have an under-utilized role in treating certain breast and ovarian cancers. However, the precise signaling pathways necessary for the effect and the features of cellular responses remain poorly defined. We used transcriptomic and proteomic profiling approaches to characterize the effects of GnRH receptor activation in sensitive cells (HEK293-GnRHR, SCL60) in in vitro and in vivo settings, compared to unresponsive HEK293. Analyses of gene expression demonstrated a dynamic SCL60 response to the GnRH super-agonist Triptorelin. Early and mid-phase changes (0.5-1.0 h) comprised mainly transcription factors. Later changes (8-24 h) included a GnRH target gene, CGA, and up or down-regulation of transcripts encoding signaling and cell division machinery. Pathway analysis exposed identified altered mitogen-activated protein kinase and cell cycle pathways, consistent with occurrence of G2/M arrest and apoptosis. NFκB pathway gene transcripts were differentially expressed between control and Triptorelin-treated SCL60 cultures. Reverse phase protein and phospho-proteomic array analyses profiled responses in cultured cells and SCL60 xenografts in vivo during Triptorelin anti-proliferation. Increased phosphorylated NFκB (p65) occurred in SCL60 in vitro, and p-NFκB and IκBε were higher in treated xenografts than controls after 4 days Triptorelin. NFκB inhibition enhanced the anti-proliferative effect of Triptorelin in SCL60 cultures. This study reveals details of pathways interacting with intense GnRH receptor signaling, identifies potential anti-proliferative target genes and implicates the NFκB survival pathway as a node for enhancing GnRH agonist-induced anti-proliferation. 55 samples: 35 SCL60 (15 Control, 20 Treated), 20 HEK293 (12 Control, 8 Treated). Samples collected after 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 8 or 24h after treatment with Triptorelin (100nM) or vehicle control (20% Propylene Glycol solution). SCL60 cells are HEK293 cells stably transfected with a high level of functional rat GnRHR.

Project description:Mast cells respond to cytokine cues through rapid transcriptional rewiring. Here we generated CUT&Tag profiles of the transcription factor JUND in the human mast cell line LAD2 under three culture conditions: SCF withdrawal (EM), SCF supplementation (SCF), and SCF withdrawal plus imatinib treatment (IM). Two biological replicates were collected for each condition. Libraries were sequenced as paired-end reads and processed by adapter/quality filtering, alignment to the human reference genome (GRCh38/hg38), peak calling, and generation of normalized genome browser tracks. This dataset provides a resource to examine how SCF signaling and c-KIT pathway inhibition reshape JUND occupancy in mast cells.

Project description:Protein kinase D (PKD) regulates protein secretion at the Golgi complex and has been found to have a pro-oncogenic role in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). PKD was previously reported to regulate the secretion of tumor-promoting factors in prostate and pancreatic cancer. Whether PKD plays a similar role in TNBC remains unknown. Here, we used mass spectrometry-based proteomics to characterize the secreted proteome collected from the TNBC cell lines MDA-MB-231 and MDA-MB-468 following pharmacological PKD2 and PKD3 inhibition. Analysis of secretome signatures of response revealed several extracellular matrix related proteins decreased upon PKD inhibition. Amongst the downregulated proteins were previously described TNBC invasion mediators, such as TNC, STC-1, LIF, MMP-1 and M-CSF. The secretion of these proteins, as well as of MMP-13, IL-11 and GM-CSF, was further validated by multiplex assays to be regulated by PKD. Secretion regulation of this protein set by PKD was more evident in TNBC metastatic cell lines than in primary tumor-derived. Individual knockdown of PKD2 and PKD3 revealed that secretion of this protein set is predominantly PKD2-driven in MDA-MB-231 cells. This study improves the current understanding of PKD’s contribution to TNBC secretion and uncovers a novel function of PKD2 in the release of a pro-invasive secretome. / This study improves the current understanding of PKD’s contribution to TNBC secretion and uncovers the distinct pro-invasive substrates of PKD2 and PKD3.

Project description:Identifying the early gene program induced by GnRH would help understand how GnRH-activated signaling pathways modulate gonadotrope secretory response. We previously analyzed GnRH-induced early genes in LbT2 cells, however these lack GnRH self-potentiation, a physiological attribute of gonadotropes. To minimize cellular heterogeneity, rat primary pituitary cultures were enriched for gonadotropes by 40-60% using a sedimentation gradient. Given the limited number of gonadotropes, RNA was amplified prior to microarray analysis. Thirty-three genes were up-regulated 40 minutes after GnRH stimulation. Real-time PCR confirmed regulation of several transcripts including fosB, c-fos, egr-2 and rap1b, a small GTPase and member of the Ras family. GnRH stimulated rap1b gene expression in gonadotropes, measured by a sensitive single cell assay. Immunocytochemistry revealed increased Rap1 protein in GnRH-stimulated gonadotropes. These data establish rap1b as a novel gene rapidly induced by GnRH and a candidate to modulate gonadotropin secretion in rat gonadotropes. Primary rat gonadotrope cells were exposed to 10 nM GnRH for 40 min, then harvested and processed for RNA extraction using a Qiagen RNeasy mini kit (Qiagen, Valencia, CA). A total of 12 Affymetrix Rat Expression Array 230 v2.0, namely 6 GnRH-treated and 6 vehicle-treated samples, each containing 31,000 gene clusters, were used. Data analysis was performed by Affymetrix GeneChip Operating System (GCOS). A gene was considered to be up-regulated by GnRH if there is at least 50% concordance across multiple pairwise comparisons of GnRH- vs. vehicle-treated microarrays, and if the fold-change was at least 1.50.

Project description:Fertility critically depends on the gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) pulse generator, a neural construct comprised of hypothalamic neurons coexpressing kisspeptin, neurokoinin-B and dynorphin. Here, using mathematical modeling and in vivo optogenetics we reveal for the first time how this neural construct initiates and sustains the appropriate ultradian frequency essential for reproduction. Prompted by mathematical modeling, we show experimentally using female estrous mice that robust pulsatile release of luteinizing hormone, a proxy for GnRH, emerges abruptly as we increase the basal activity of the neuronal network using continuous low-frequency optogenetic stimulation. Further increase in basal activity markedly increases pulse frequency and eventually leads to pulse termination. Additional model predictions that pulsatile dynamics emerge from nonlinear positive and negative feedback interactions mediated through neurokinin-B and dynorphin signaling respectively are confirmed neuropharmacologically. Our results shed light on the long-elusive GnRH pulse generator offering new horizons for reproductive health and wellbeing.SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT The gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) pulse generator controls the pulsatile secretion of the gonadotropic hormones LH and FSH and is critical for fertility. The hypothalamic arcuate kisspeptin neurons are thought to represent the GnRH pulse generator, since their oscillatory activity is coincident with LH pulses in the blood; a proxy for GnRH pulses. However, the mechanisms underlying GnRH pulse generation remain elusive. We developed a mathematical model of the kisspeptin neuronal network and confirmed its predictions experimentally, showing how LH secretion is frequency-modulated as we increase the basal activity of the arcuate kisspeptin neurons in vivo using continuous optogenetic stimulation. Our model provides a quantitative framework for understanding the reproductive neuroendocrine system and opens new horizons for fertility regulation

Project description:Leukotriene E4 (LTE4) the most stable of the cysteinyl leukotrienes (cysLTs) binds poorly to classical type 1 (CysLT1) and 2 (CysLT2) receptors although it induces potent responses in human airways in vivo, such as bronchoconstriction, airway hyperresponsiveness and inflammatory cell influx suggesting the presence of a novel receptor that preferentially responds to LTE4. To identify such a receptor two human mast cell lines, LAD2 and LUVA, were selected that differentially responded to LTE4 when analysed by intracellular signalling and gene expression. Comparative transcriptome analysis and recombinant gene overexpression experiments revealed CysLT1 as a receptor responsible for potent LTE4-induced response in LAD2 but not in LUVA cells, an observation confirmed further by gene knockdown and selective inhibitors. Lentiviral overexpression of CysLT1 in LUVA cells augmented intracellular calcium signalling induced by LTE4 but did not restore full agonist responses at the gene expression level. Our data support a model where both an increased expression of Gαq-coupled CysLT1, and sustained intracellular calcium mobilisation and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (Erk) activation, are required for LTE4-mediated regulation of gene expression in human cells. Our study shows for the first time that CysLT1 expression is critically important for responsiveness to LTE4 within a human cell system.
