Project description:Prostate stroma-specific TGF-beta signaling induces morphological changes in LNCaP cells. We have previously shown that stromal TGF-beta signaling regulates prostate tumor growth. To further delineate the underlying mechanisms, we generated LNCaP cells overexpressing an HA-tagged constitutively activate TGF-beta1 ligand (LNCaP-HA-TGF-β1(a)) and control LNCaP cells (LNCaP-Ctrl), and performed in vitro co-cultures of LNCaP-HA-TGF-β1(a) and LNCaP-Ctrl cells on top of the confluent HPS-19I cells, a human prostate stromal cell line. Since LNCaP cells are defective in TGF-beta receptor I (TbetaRI / ALK-5) that is essential for mediating TGF-beta signaling, only HPS19I cells are able to respond to TGF-beta ligand in these co-cultures. This provides a unique opportunity to study how prostate stromal cell-specific TGF-beta signaling regulates PCa biology. To identify the prostate epithelia-specific gene that was regulated by prostate stromal TGF-beta signaling, we also treated HPS19I cells using conditioned media collected from LNCaP- HA-TGF-β1(a) cells and LNCaP-Ctrl cells cultured in RPMI1640 supplemented with 0.2% FBS. After 6 days of treatment, we extracted total RNA from these HPS19I cells and performed microarray.

Project description:To understand how the microenvironment of fibrotic lungs affects the behavior of airway basal stem cells (BCs), we constructed a mouse model of pulmonary fibrosis using bleomycin induced injury, and collected bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) from the control group and bleomycin damaged mice on day 14 after injury. Then, human BCs were stimulated with control or bleomycin BALF in culture and subjected to bulk RNA sequencing. Transcriptomic analysis showed that basal stem cells stimulated with bleomycin BALF upregulated genes related to chemotaxis and migration, and activated the TGF-β pathway.

Project description:In this study, we examined the impact of modulating the TGF-β/PAI-1 axis in CD34+ cells function from diabetic patients and controls. Using gene array studies, we found that diabetics, protected from microvascular complications despite suboptimal glycemic control, had reduced level of TGF- β1 and PAI-1 transcripts in their CD34+ cells compared to age, sex, duration and degree of glycemic control -matched diabetics with microvascular complications. Treatment with neutralizing antibody to TGF- β1 in murine hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) enhanced in vivo repopulation potential of these cells in bone marrow transplantation; reduced the time required for cell division of single cells, increased survival of the progenitor cells and reduced TGF-β1 expression. TGF- β1 phosphorodiamidate morpholino oligomers (PMO) treatment reduced PAI-1 mRNA expression in diabetic (p<0.01) and non-diabetic (p=0.05) CD34+ cells. Inhibition of PAI-1 promoted CD34+ cell proliferation and migration in vitro.Targetting TGFβ-1/PAI-1 system offers a promising therapeutic strategy for restoring vascular reparative function in diabetic CD34+ cells and hematopoietic stem cells, enhancing key functions needed for cell therapy. Peripheral blood from either age matched controls (n=5), diabetics with long standing poorly controlled diabetes and no microvascular complications (n=4), and diabetics with long-standing poorly controlled diabetes with severe microvascular complications (n=5) was obtained and CD34+ cells were isolated. RNA was extracted followed by AffyNugen amplification, and the cDNA was probed to Human RSTA Affymetrix 2.0 chip

Abstract:
Transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) is a potent regulator of extracellular matrix production, wound healing, differentiation, and immune response, and is implicated in the progression of fibrotic diseases and cancer. Extracellular activation of TGF-β1 from its latent form provides spatiotemporal control over TGF-β1 signaling, but the current understanding of TGF-β1 activation does not emphasize cross talk between activators. Plasmin (PLS) and thrombospondin-1 (TSP1) have been studied individually as activators of TGF-β1, and in this work we used a systems-level approach with mathematical modeling and in vitro experiments to study the interplay between PLS and TSP1 in TGF-β1 activation. Simulations and steady-state analysis predicted a switch-like bistable transition between two levels of active TGF-β1, with an inverse correlation between PLS and TSP1. In particular, the model predicted that increasing PLS breaks a TSP1-TGF-β1 positive feedback loop and causes an unexpected net decrease in TGF-β1 activation. To test these predictions in vitro, we treated rat hepatocytes and hepatic stellate cells with PLS, which caused proteolytic cleavage of TSP1 and decreased activation of TGF-β1. The TGF-β1 activation levels showed a cooperative dose response, and a test of hysteresis in the cocultured cells validated that TGF-β1 activation is bistable. We conclude that switch-like behavior arises from natural competition between two distinct modes of TGF-β1 activation: a TSP1-mediated mode of high activation and a PLS-mediated mode of low activation. This switch suggests an explanation for the unexpected effects of the plasminogen activation system on TGF-β1 in fibrotic diseases in vivo, as well as novel prognostic and therapeutic approaches for diseases with TGF-β dysregulation.

Project description:Extracellular vesicles play an important role in human cellular communication. Here, we show that human and mouse monocytes release TGF-β1-transporting vesicles in response to the pathogenic fungus Candida albicans. Soluble beta-glucan from Candida albicans binds to complement receptor 3 (CR3, CD11b/CD18) on monocytes and induces the release of TGF-β1-transporting vesicles. CR3-dependence is demonstrated using CR3-deficient (CD11b knockout) monocytes generated by CRISPR-CAS9 genome editing and isolated from CR3-deficient (CD11b knockout) mice. Isolated vesicles dampen the pro-inflammatory response in human M1-macrophages as well as in whole blood. Binding of the vesicle-transported TGF-β1 to the TGF-β receptor inhibits IL-1β gene transcription via the SMAD7 pathway in whole blood and induces TGF-β1 transcription in endothelial cells. Inhibition of TGF-β1 relieved the suppression of such proinflammatory effect. Notably, human opsonized apoptotic bodies induce similar TGF-β1-transporting vesicles in monocytes, suggesting that the early immune response is suppressed through this newly identified CR3-dependent anti-inflammatory vesicle pathway.

Project description:Astrocytes are abundant glial cells in the central nervous system (CNS) that play important roles in cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury. Following brain ischemia, astrocytes can trigger endogenous neuroprotective mechanisms such as neurogenesis, regulation of inflammation, transfer of mitochondria, and defense against oxidative stress. Transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-β1) is known as an injury-related cytokine, particularly associated with neurogenesis, neuronal migration, inflammatory reactions, and astrocyte scar formation in response to brain injury. TGF-β1 is closely related to ischemia-reperfusion brain injury and plays a significant role as both effectors and targets of I/R brain injury. Upregulation of endogenous TGF-β1 in neurons may contribute to preventing apoptosis after ischemic insult. TGF-β1 exerts dynamic effects in tissues through autocrine and paracrine signaling pathways as a secretory factor. The current study suggests that the multiple functions exerted by astrocytes might potentially be mediated by TGF-β1 signaling, raising the idea that astrocytes could be a potential therapeutic target for neuroprotection as sources or targets of TGF-β1. However, few studies are currently available on the effects of TGF-β1 on astrocytes after ischemia-reperfusion brain injury. Although current research shows that transforming growth factor-beta acts as a neuroprotective agent in cerebral ischemia, its specific mechanism is still not completely clear. In this study, RNA sequencing analysis was performed to investigate the potential mechanism of astrocytes pretreated with TGF-β1. Our study found that TGF-β1 mediates the upregulation of DUSP4 in astrocytes, which plays a neuroprotective role after ischemia-reperfusion injury. Overexpression of TGF-β1 inhibits the activation of astrocytes, accompanied by decreased levels of inflammatory factors and reactive oxygen species (ROS), while promoting the transfer of mitochondria between astrocytes and neurons. This enhanced neuron survival and axonal regeneration after injury. Hence, this study provides further insights into strategies for inhibiting neurological impairment and suggests a potential therapeutic target after ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Project description:Tumor-associated neutrophils are found in many types of cancer and are often reported to contribute to negative outcomes. Several studies have shown that the presence of TGF-β in the tumor microenvironment contributes to the skewing of neutrophils to have a more pro-tumor phenotype. However, the direct effects of TGF-β on neutrophil signaling and migration are unclear. We sought to characterize TGF-β signaling in both primary human neutrophils and the neutrophil-like cell line HL-60 and determine whether TGF-β directly induces neutrophil migration. We found that TGF-β1 does not induce neutrophil migration in either a transwell or an underagarose migration assay. However, TGF-β1 does activate signals canonically through SMAD3 and noncanonically through ERK1/2 in neutrophils in a time and dose-dependent manner. Additionally, TGF-β1 present in the tumor-conditioned media (TCM) is responsible for SMAD3 activation. Moreover, we discovered that TCM from aggressive breast cancer cells induces neutrophils to secrete leukotriene B4 (LTB4), which is a lipid mediator important for amplifying neutrophil recruitment. However, we found that TGF-β1 alone does not induce secretion of LTB4. We next performed RNA-sequencing to evaluate the effects of TGF-β1 and TCM on the neutrophil transcriptome. We found that TGF-β1 and TCM result in changes in gene transcription in HL-60 cells, specifically of two pro-tumor genes OSM and VEGFA. Together, our findings characterize the effects of TGF-β1 on neutrophil signaling, migration, and gene expression that can be applied to understanding the changes in neutrophils that occur in the tumor microenvironment.

Project description:The non-receptor tyrosine kinase SRC is upregulated in various human cancers and plays crucial roles in cancer progression by promoting invasion and metastasis. We show that the transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β/SMAD pathway directly upregulates SRC during the epithelial-mesenchymal transition. In human epithelial MCF10A cells, TGF-β1 treatment markedly upregulated mRNA expression of SRC. Knockout of SMAD4 suppressed upregulation of SRC by TGF-β1. ChIP-sequencing analysis revealed that SRC was transcribed from the SRC1A promoter, which interacted with SMAD2 and SMAD4, in response to TGF-β1. These findings demonstrate that a direct interaction of the activated SMAD complex with the SRC1A promoter directly upregulates SRC and suggest that TGF-β contributes to SRC upregulation in the tumor microenvironment, where TGF-β-mediated tumor progression takes place.

Project description:CD4+ T cells that selectively produce interleukin (IL)-17, are critical for host defense and autoimmunity1-4. Crucial for T helper17 (Th17) cells in vivo5,6, IL-23 has been thought to be incapable of driving initial differentiation. Rather, IL-6 and transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1 have been argued to be the factors responsible for initiating specification7-10. Herein, we show that Th17 differentiation occurs in the absence of TGF-β signaling. Neither IL-6 nor IL-23 alone efficiently generated Th17 cells; however, these cytokines in combination with IL-1β effectively induced IL-17 production in naïve precursors, independently of TGF-β. Epigenetic modification of the Il17a/Il17f and Rorc promoters proceeded without TGF-β1, allowing the generation of cells that co-expressed Rorγt and T-bet. T-bet+Rorγt+ Th17 cells are generated in vivo during experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE), and adoptively transferred Th17 cells generated with IL-23 in the absence of TGF-β1 were more pathogenic in this experimental disease. These data suggest a new model for Th17 differentiation. Consistent with genetic data linking the IL23R with autoimmunity, our findings re-emphasize the role of IL-23 and therefore have important implications for the development of new therapies.
