Project description:Ovarian cancer cells treated with CDDP showed up-regulation of IRF-1 and IRF-7. The expression of putative IRF-1 target genes was modulated. CDDP triggered nuclear translocation of IRF-1 and IRF-1 silencing re-orchestrated the expression profiles of CDDP treated cells. Using microarrays, we evaluated the expression profiles of IRF-1 silenced SK-OV-3.

Project description:We found that mice deficient in both IRF-4 and IRF-8 develop from a very early age a more aggressive CML-like disease than mice deficient in IRF-8 alone. IRF-4 deficiency dramatically enhanced the effect of IRF-8 deficiency on expansion of granulocyte-monocyte progenitors (GMPs). All mice deficient in both IRF-4 and IRF-8 eventually develop and succumb to a B-lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma at approximately 25 weeks of age. The results demonstrate that IRF-4 and IRF-8 deficiencies can cooperate in the development of both myeloid and lymphoid tumors. To gain insights into how loss of IRF-4 affects the transcriptional program underlying leukemogenesis, we analyzed the genome-wide transcription profiles of GMPs from WT, IRF-8 KO and IRF-4/8 DKO mice. Microarray analysis revealed genes differentially expressed in IRF-4/8 DKO and IRF-8 KO GMPs, including genes that are involved in cell growth regulation and/or tumorigenesis.

Project description:We investigated the roles of IRF-3 and IRF-7 in innate antiviral immunity against dengue virus (DENV). Double-deficient Irf-3-/-7-/- mice infected with the DENV2 strain S221 possessed 1,000-150,000 fold higher levels of viral RNA than wild-type and single-deficient mice 24 hours after infection; however, they remained resistant to lethal infection. IFN-α/β was induced similarly in wild-type and Irf-3-/- mice post DENV infection, whereas in the Irf-7-/- and Irf-3-/-7-/- mice, significantly low levels of IFN-α/β expression was observed within 24 hours post-infection. IFN-stimulated gene (ISG) induction was also delayed in Irf-3-/-7-/- mice relative to wild-type and single-deficient mice. In particular, Cxcl10 and Ifnα2 were rapidly induced independently of both IRF-3 and IRF-7 in the Irf-3-/-7-/- mice with DENV infection. Higher levels of serum IFN-γ, IL-6, CXCL10, IL-8, IL-12 p70, and TNF were also observed in Irf-3-/-7-/- mice 24 hours after infection, at which time point viral titers peaked and started to be cleared. Antibody-mediated blockade experiments revealed that IFN-γ, CXCL10, and CXCR3 function to restrict DENV replication in Irf-3-/-7-/- mice. Additionally, the ISGs Cxcl10, Ifit1, Ifit3, and Mx2 can be induced via an IRF-3- and IRF-7-independent pathway that does not involve IFN-γ signaling for protection against DENV. Collectively, these results demonstrate that IRF-3 and IRF-7 are redundant, albeit IRF-7 plays a more important role than IRF-3 in inducing the initial IFN-α/β response; only the combined actions of IRF-3 and IRF-7 are necessary for efficient control of early DENV infection; and the late, IRF-3- and IRF-7-independent pathway contributes to anti-DENV immunity.

To identify the antiviral genes that are controlled by IRF-3 and IRF-7 signaling during DENV infection, we examined a panel of ISG expression in the spleens of wild-type, Irf-3-/-, Irf-7-/- and Irf-3-/-7-/- mice at 12 or 24 hours after DENV infection using a quantitative PCR array kit. The fold changes in expression of 55 genes from infected mice were normalized to that of strain-matched naïve mice.

Project description:Advanced ovarian cancers are initially responsive to chemotherapy with platinum drugs but develop drug resistance in most cases. We showed recently that hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) enhances death of human ovarian cancer cell lines treated with cisplatin (CDDP) and that this effect is mediated by the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase. In this work, we integrated genome-wide expression profiling, in silico data survey, and functional assays to identify transcripts regulated in SK-OV-3 ovarian cancer cells made more responsive to CDDP by HGF. Using oligonucleotide microarrays, we found that HGF pretreatment changes the transcriptional response to CDDP. Quantitative reverse transcription-PCR not only validated all the 15 most differentially expressed genes but also confirmed that they were primarily modulated by the combined treatment with HGF and CDDP and reversed by suppressing p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase activity. Among the differentially expressed genes, we focused functional analysis on two regulatory subunits of the protein phosphatase 2A, which were down-modulated by HGF plus CDDP. Decrease of each subunit by RNA interference made ovarian cancer cells more responsive to CDDP, mimicking the effect of HGF. In conclusion, we show that HGF and CDDP modulate transcription in ovarian cancer cells and that this transcriptional response is involved in apoptosis regulation. We also provide the proof-of-concept that the identified genes might be targeted to either increase the efficacy of chemotherapeutics or revert chemotherapy resistance.

Project description:Synthetic oligonucleotides (ODNs) containing CpG motifs stimulate human plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) to produce type-1 interferons (IFN) and pro-inflammatory cytokines. Previous studies demonstrated that interferon regulatory factors (IRFs) played a central role in mediating CpG-induced pDC activation. This work explores the inverse effects of IRF-5 and IRF-8 on CpG dependent gene expression. Results from RNA interference and microarray studies indicate that IRF-5 up-regulates TLR9-driven gene expression whereas IRF-8 down-regulates the same genes. Several findings support the conclusion that IRF-8 inhibits TLR9 dependent gene expression by directly blocking the activity of IRF-5. First, the inhibitory activity of IRF-8 is only observed when IRF-5 is present. Second, proximity ligation analysis shows that IRF-8 and IRF-5 co-localize within the cytoplasm of resting human pDC and co-translocate to the nucleus after CpG stimulation. Taken together, these findings suggest that two transcription factors with opposing functions control TLR9 signaling in human pDCs.

Project description:Interferon Regulatory Factor-8, an Integral Determinant of Myeloid-Derived Suppressor Cell Subset Development. Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC) are a major barrier to anticancer responses. Although much is known about how MDSC promote tumor progression, little is known about how they develop. We hypothesized that MDSC develop as a consequence of tumor-induced downregulation of interferon regulatory factor-8 (IRF-8), a key myeloid developmental transcription factor. We showed that: 1) IRF8-deficiency in mice generated myeloid populations highly homologous to tumor-induced MDSC; 2) IRF-8 overexpression in mice reduced MDSC accumulation and retarded tumor growth; 3) MDSC-inducing factors, G-CSF or GM-CSF, facilitated IRF-8 downregulation via STAT3- or STAT5-dependent pathways, respectively; and 4) IRF-8 levels in MDSC-like subsets of breast cancer patients were depressed compared to healthy donors. Altogether, our data implicate IRF-8 as a novel MDSC-dependent transcription factor.
