MIF-CXCR4 as a novel axis for Mesenchymal Stem Cells recruitment to tumours in vivo.

ABSTRACT: MSCs are inherently tumor-homing and immunosuppressive and can be isolated, cultured, expanded, and transduced, making them viable candidates for cell therapy. MSCs can also be useful in allogeneic transplantation because of their immunocompatibility. MSCs have the capacity to home specifically to tumors including gliomas and breast, colon, ovarian, and lung carcinomas, among many other primary and metastatic tumors. Some discrepancies are however present regarding the mechanism and the involvement of molecules/receptors in MSC homing to tumours. We have used in this study a combination of genome expression profiling and cytokine arrays to screen for candidates mediating MSC homing to two different cancer cell lines: A549 and MDAMB231. We found a variety of interleukines and cytokines already described as players in the process, such as IL6, IL8, CCL2. Additionally, from in vitro migration and invasion assays, we show that CXCR4 is a major player in this mechanism being the essential MSC receptor for the process to occur. For the first time, we have identified in this study a novel axis: MIF-CXCR4, showing a physical interaction between them and validating their essential role in vitro and in vivo. A better understanding of MSC homing players towards tumours will help the development of novel strategies in their use as vehicles in cancer cell therapy.

miR-146a-5p circuitry uncouples cell proliferation and migration, but not differentiation, in human mesenchymal stem cells

Project description:Administration of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) has the potential to ameliorate degenerative disorders and to repair damaged tissues. The homing of transplanted MSCs to injured sites is a critical property of engraftment. Our aim was to identify microRNAs involved in controlling MSC proliferation and migration. MSCs can be isolated from bone marrow and umbilical cord Wharton's jelly (BM-MSCs and WJ-MSCs, respectively), and WJ-MSCs show poorer motility yet have a better amplification rate compared to BM-MSCs. One human BM-MSC (pooled sample of 4 independent donors), one human WJ-MSC (pooled sample of 3 independent donors), and differentiated osteocytes and adipocytes derived from BM-MSCs after 2 weeks induction.

Gene expression profiling for 2 cell samples

Project description:Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) exhibit immunosuppressive properties. However the homing mechanisms underlying MSC trafficking to target tissues remain elusive. Here we report that skin-derived MSCs (S-MSCs) secrete high levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6), inhibit T helper (Th)1- and Th17-cell differentiation, and possess IL-6-dependent immunomodulatory capacity in inflammatory microenvironment. Disruption of the il6 locus or its signaling transducer gp130 blocks voltage-operated calcium (Ca2+) channels (VOCC) critically required for cell contraction involved in the sequential adhesion and de-adhesion events during S-MSC migration. IL-6 directly regulates CaV2.3 encoded by cacna1e of R-type Ca2+ channels through the JAK3/STAT3 signaling pathway. Deletion of il6 or silencing CaV2.3 gene expression leads to a severe defect in S-MSC’s homing and immunosuppressive function in vivo. Thus, this unexpected requirement of autocrine IL-6 for activating CaV2.3 Ca2+ channels uncovers a previously unrecognized link between IL-6 signaling and the VOCC, and provides novel mechanistic insights for the immunomodulatory activities of S-MSCs. A two chip study using total RNA recovered from three mixed S-MSCs derived from WT mice and three mixed S-MSCs derived from IL6KO mice.

Transcriptome changes due to nuclear penetration of cancer extracellular vesicles

Project description:Extracellular membrane vesicles (EVs) function as vehicles of intercellular communication in autocrine or paracrine manner. We report that cancer-derived EV biomaterials reach nuclei of human melanoma and breast carcinoma cells and multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) through Rab7+ late endosome subdomains that penetrate into nuclear envelope invaginations. MSCs were exposed to cancer Evs in the presence or absence of drugs that block nucler import or export through the nuclear pores. Depletion of CD9 or inhibition of importin β1, two EV-associated molecules, abrogated the nuclear localization of EV-derived biomaterials and EV-induced early changes in MSC transcriptome notably in genes involved in inflammation. Also inhibition of nuclear export by leptomycin B inhibited early changes in MSC transcriptome. This novel cellular pathway may become a cancer therapeutic target.

Single-cell analysis reveals the stromal dynamics and tumor-specific characteristics in the microenvironment of ovarian cancer

Project description:We characterized high-grade ovarian serous carcinoma TIME based on integrative single-cell transcriptomics analysis of public and in-house datasets. We identified a distinct transcriptomic landscape of both immune and non-immune cells between the dense and more sparse stromal tumors. High stromal tumors contain a lower fraction of infiltrating activated CXCR3+ GRZB+ IFN+ IL2R+ CD8+ T and NCR3+ KLRD1+ natural killer (NK) cells and CXCL1+ macrophages. Next, we determined the potential interplays between non-immune and immune cells. High stromal tumors showed increased expression of CXCL12 in epithelial cancer cells and CA-MSCs. Cell-cell communication analyses suggested that epithelial cancer cells and CA-MSCs secreted CXCL12 interacts with the CXCR4 receptor on NK and CD8+ T cells. Using CXCL12 and/or CXCR4 neutralizing antibodies, we confirmed the immunosuppressive role of the CXCL12-CXCR4 axis in CA-MSC-induced immune suppression.

Role of miRNAs in acute kidney injury recovery induced by mesenchymal stromal cells and derived extracellular vesicles.

Project description:Phenotypic changes induced by extracellular vesicles (EVs) have been implicated in the recovery of acute kidney injury (AKI) induced by mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs). miRNAs are potential candidates for cell reprogramming towards a pro-regenerative phenotype. The aim of the present study was to evaluate whether miRNA de-regulation inhibits the regenerative potential of MSCs and derived-EVs in a model of glycerol-induced AKI in SCID mice. For this purpose, we generated MSCs depleted of Drosha, a critical enzyme of miRNA maturation, to alter miRNA expression within MSCs and EVs. Drosha knock-down MSCs (MSC-Dsh) maintained the phenotype and differentiation capacity. They produced EVs that did not differ from those of wild type cells in quantity, surface molecule expression and internalization within renal tubular epithelial cells. However, EVs derived from MSC-Dsh (EV-Dsh) showed global down-regulation of miRNAs. Whereas, wild type MSCs and derived EVs were able to induce morphological and functional recovery in AKI, MSC-Dsh and EV-Dsh were ineffective. RNA sequencing analysis showed that genes deregulated in the kidney of AKI mice were restored by treatment with MSCs and EVs but not by MSC-Dsh and EV-Dsh. Gene Ontology analysis showed that down-regulated genes in AKI were associated with fatty acid metabolism. The up-regulated genes in AKI were involved in inflammation, ECM-receptor interaction and cell adhesion molecules. These alterations were reverted by treatment with wild type MSCs and EVs, but not by the Drosha counterparts. In conclusion, miRNA depletion in MSCs and EVs significantly reduced their intrinsic regenerative potential in AKI, suggesting a critical role of miRNAs. RNA-seq

Analysis of gene expression in human adipose tissue-derived multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells lacking GARP/LRRC32

Project description:Multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) have been shown to promote tissue repair and inhibit inflammatory/autoimmune responses in preclinical and human clinical trials A major problem for MSC-based therapies is the need to expand MSCs in vitro due to the low frequency of MSCs in tissues and the large numbers of cells needed/patient (1-10 x 10^6 cells/kg). The expansion of MSCs is associated with several problems including loss of homing capacity, onset of cellular senescence, decrease in differentiation capacityand susceptibility to genomic instability and malignant transformation, limiting the utility of MSCs as a cell-based therapy. We have recently reported that murine adipose tissue-derived MSCs (mASCs) and human ASCs (hASCs) express glycoprotein A repetitions predominant (GARP)/leucine-rich repeat-containing 32 (LRRC32). GARP binds LAP/TGF-β1 to the surface of mASCs and hASCs, regulating their secretion and activation of TGF-β1 and promoting their immunomodulatory capacity. Interestingly, silencing of GARP in ASCs significantly decreased their proliferative capacity but the mechanisms remain unknown. As the proliferative capacity of MSCs is fundamental for their success in therapy, we have aimed at understanding how GARP modulates the expansion of MSC.

Human hematopoietic leukemic k562 cells: control Vs CXCR4 constitutively active mutant cells

Project description:The low homing and engraftment efficiency especially in context of low availability of donor CD34+ HSPCs is a major challenge, which limits the clinical applications of HSC therapies. SDF-1/CXCR4 axis plays a principle role in the homing and engraftment of hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells. Activation of CXCR4 induces cell trafficking and homing to the marrow microenvironment, where it retains hematopoietic stem cells in close contact with marrow stromal cells. The aim of our study is to understand the mechanisms of other molecules acting along with CXCR4 to provide new insights in the regulation of cell phenotypes. This data shows the transcriptional profiling of human hematopoetic leukemic k562 cells comparing control, wild type and two different mutant cells where mutant cells have constitutively activated CXCR4 gene expression where mutant 1 and 2 have different aminoacid substituions. biological replicates: three control, three wild type, three mutant 1, three mutant 2

Rejuvenation and conversion of skin fibroblasts for immune modulation and bone and cartilage repair in vivo

Project description:Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) exist in many tissues and have emerged as promising candidates for therapeutic interventions. While MSCs may be used to reverse aging, they themselves also age. For example, bone marrow-derived MSCs from old individuals are known to have reduced ability to produce bone and cartilage cells, while biased towards making adipose tissues, hence aged bone marrow are referred to as "yellow marrow". Here we report, using step-wise treatment with different "cocktails" of small molecules, we turned old skin fibroblasts into much younger MSC-like cells (MSC-LCs), which reversed many aging features including shortened telomere as well as reduced proliferation potentials and differentiation bias. Moreover, MSC-LCs manifest potent effects in bone and cartilage repair in vivo. MSC-LCs also demonstrated strong immune modulatory functions both in vitro and in vivo during liver damage repair. Taken together, our study demonstrated that old skin fibroblasts could be reprogrammed to acquire youth and harbor huge therapeutic values.
