Project description:The transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) superfamily proteins are potent regulators of cellular development and differentiation. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play widespread roles in spatial-temporal regulation of early development. However, the roles of lncRNAs regulated by nodal/TGF-β signaling is still elusive. Here, we showed a nodal-driven Smad induced lncRNA in mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs), lncRNA-Smad7, which is divergently transcribed to Smad7, regulates cell fate determination through repressing Bmp2. Depletion of lncRNA-Smad7 dramatically impairs cardiomyocyte differentiation in mESCs. Moreover, LncRNA-Smad7 represses Bmp2 expression and binds at the promoter region of Bmp2. Importantly, knock-down Bmp2 rescues the defect of cardiomyocyte differentiation. Hence, we showed that lncRNA-Smad7 is antagonistic to BMP signaling in mESCs. Furthermore, lncRNA-Smad7 regulates cell fate determination between osteocytes and myocytes formation in C2C12 cells by repressing Bmp2. Thus, we provide new insights regarding the antagonistic effects between nodal/TGF-β and BMP signaling via lncRNA-Smad7.

Project description:Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are involved in the regulation of skeletal muscle development. In the present study, differentially expressed lncRNAs were identified from RNA-seq data derived from myoblasts and myotubes. We conducted studies to elucidate the function and molecular mechanism of action of Linc-smad7 during skeletal muscle development. Our findings show that Linc-smad7 is upregulated during the early phase of myoblasts differentiation. In in vitro studies, we showed that overexpression of Linc-smad7 promoted the arrest of myoblasts in G1 phase, inhibited DNA replication, and induced myoblast differentiation. Our in vivo studies suggest that Linc-smad7 stimulates skeletal muscle regeneration in cardiotoxin-induced muscle injury. Mechanistically, Linc-smad7 overexpression increased smad7 and IGF2 protein levels. On the contrary, overexpression of miR-125b reduced smad7 and IGF2 protein levels. Results of RNA immunoprecipitation analysis and biotin-labeled miR-125b capture suggest that Linc-smad7 could act as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) for miRNA-125b. Taken together, our findings suggest that the novel noncoding regulator Linc-smad7 regulates skeletal muscle development.

Project description:Long-term management of inflammatory skin diseases is challenging because of side effects from repeated use of systemic treatments or topical corticosteroids. This study sought to identify novel mechanisms and developmental therapeutics for these diseases using genetic models and pharmacological approaches. We found mice overexpressing Smad7 in keratinocytes, but not mice overexpressing the N-terminal domain of Smad7 (N-Smad7), were resistant to imiquimod (IMQ)-induced Th1/17 and Th2 type inflammation. We generated a truncated Smad7 protein encompassing C-terminal Smad7 and PY motif fused with cell-penetrating Tat peptide (Tat-PYC-Smad7). Topically applied Tat-PYC-Smad7 to inflamed skin entered cells upon contact and attenuated IMQ-, 2,4-dinitrofluorobenzene-induced atopic dermatitis (AD) and tape-stripping inflammation (TS). RNAseq analyses of mouse skin exposed to these insults identified that in addition to inhibiting TGFβ/NFκB, Smad7 blunted IL22/STAT3 activation and associated pathogenesis, which is due to Smad7 transcriptionally upregulating IL22 antagonist IL22RA2. Mechanistically, Smad7 facilitated nuclear translocation and DNA binding of C/EBPβ to IL22RA2 promoter for IL22RA2 transactivation. Consistent to the above observations in mice, transcript levels of IL22RA2 were increased in human atopic dermatitis and psoriasis lesions with clinical remission. Our study identified the anti-inflammation functional domain of Smad7 and suggests mechanism and feasibility for developing Smad7-based biologics as a topical therapy for skin inflammatory disorders.

Project description:Induction of the inhibitory Smad, Smad7 serves as a negative feedback mechanism that restrains TGF-b-mediated actions in injured tissues. In inflammatory cells, Smad7 has been suggested to exert both pro-inflammatory actions attributed to inhibition of TGF-b-induced suppression of inflammation, and anti-inflammatory effects due to disruption of the TAK-1/NF-kB system. Myocardial infarction triggers a macrophage-driven inflammatory response that plays a central role in cardiac repair, but also contributes to adverse remodeling and fibrosis. We hypothesized that Smad7 upregulation in infarct macrophages may play a modulatory role in cardiac repair, by restraining effects of TGF-b. To test the hypothesis, we investigated the response of Myeloid cell-specific Smad7 knockout mice (MyS7KO) following myocardial infarction protocols, and we examined the in vitro effects of Smad7 in isolated macrophages. Smad7 was upregulated in a subset of infarct macrophages, peaking 7 days after infarction. Myeloid cell-specific Smad7 loss did not affect baseline macrophage gene expression and had no significant effects on homeostatic functions. Although RNA-seq analysis predicted that, in the absence of Smad7, infarct macrophages may have attenuated activation of inflammatory pathways and suppressed TREM1 signaling, myeloid cell-specific Smad7 loss had no significant effects on ventricular dysfunction, adverse remodeling, scar remodeling and collagen deposition after myocardial infarction. In isolated macrophages, TGF-b attenuated pro-inflammatory cytokine and chemokine expression, modulated synthesis of matrix remodeling genes, and had profound effects on macrophage profile, inducing genes associated with activation of sphingosine-1 phosphate and integrin signaling pathways, and inhibiting cholesterol biosynthesis genes. However, RNA-seq and PCR array experiments showed that Smad7 loss has minimal effects on TGF-b-mediated macrophage responses, restraining synthesis of only a small fraction of TGF-b-induced genes, such as Itga5, Olfml3 and Fabp7. Smad7 absence did not affect the anti-inflammatory actions of TGF-b in TNF-stimulated cells. In conclusion, our findings suggest a limited role for macrophage Smad7 in regulation of post-infarction inflammation and repair, and demonstrate that the anti-inflammatory effects of TGF-b in macrophages are not restrained by endogenous Smad7 induction.

Project description:Smad7 has been identified as a negative regulator of the transforming growth factor TGF-β pathway by direct interaction with the TGF-β type I receptor (TβR-I). Although Smad7 has also been shown to play TGF-β unrelated functions in the cytoplasm and in the nucleus, a comprehensive analysis of its nuclear function has not yet been performed. Here we show that in ESCs Smad7 is mainly nuclear and acts as a general transcription factor regulating a number of genes unrelated to the TGF-β pathway. Loss of Smad7 results in the downregulation of several key stemness master regulators, including Pou5f1 and Zfp42, and in the upregulation of developmental genes, with consequent loss of the stem phenotype. Integrative analysis of genome-wide mapping data for Smad7 and ESC self-renewal and pluripotency transcriptional regulators revealed that Smad7 co-occupies promoters of highly expressed key stemness regulators genes, by binding to a specific consensus response element NCGGAAMM. Altogether, our data establishes Smad7 as new integral component of the regulatory circuitry that controls ESC identity.

Project description:Prostate cancer stem-like cells were derived from DU145 cells as suspension spheres. DU145 cells were transduced with a CNTN1 over expressing retroviral vector and a control empty vector. DU145 spheres were transduced using a retroviral-based shRNA vector against CNTN1 and a scrambled control shRNA viral vector. Both cell lines were cultured over a couple of passages before RNA was collected.
