Project description:The microRNA (miRNA) dependent regulation of gene expression confers robustness to cellular phenotypes and controls responses to extracellular stimuli. Although a single miRNA can regulate expression of hundreds of target genes, it is unclear whether any of its distinct biological functions can be due to the regulation of a single target. To explore in vivo the function of a single miRNA-mRNA interaction, we mutated the 3' UTR of a major miR-155 target SOCS1 to specifically disrupt its regulation by miR-155. We found that under physiologic conditions and during autoimmune inflammation or viral infection some immunological functions of miR-155 were fully or largely attributable to the regulation of SOCS1, whereas others could be accounted only partially or not at all by this interaction. Our data suggest that the role of a single miRNA-mRNA interaction is cell type- and biological context-dependent. Naive WT, SOCS1KI and miR-155KO OVA-specific OT-1 TCR transgenic CD8+ T cells (1x10e4 per mouse) were adoptively transferred into CD45.1+ wt mice prior to infection with MCMV-OVA. WT, SOCS1KI and miR-155KO NK cells (2x10e5 per mouse) were adoptively transferred into CD45.1+ Klra8KO (Ly49H-deficient) mice prior to infection with MCMV. On d4 post infection, CD45.2+ CD44+ CD8+ OT-1 and CD45.2+ Ly49H+ NK1.1+ CD3- NK cells were FACS-sorted (BD FACS ARIA2). Each condition has 3 sequencing replicates.

Project description:The negative feedback mechanism is essential to maintain effective immunity and tissue homeostasis. 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25(OH)2D3) modulates innate immune response, but the mechanism remains poorly understood. Here we report that vitamin D receptor (VDR) signaling attenuates Toll-like receptor-mediated inflammation by enhancing the negative feedback inhibition. VDR inactivation leads to a hyperinflammatory response in mice and macrophage cultures when challenged with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) due to miR-155 overproduction that excessively suppresses SOCS1, a key regulator that enhances the negative feedback loop. Deletion of miR-155 attenuates vitamin D suppression of LPS-induced inflammation, confirming that 1,25(OH)2D3 stimulates SOCS1 by down-regulating miR-155. 1,25(OH)2D3 down-regulates bic transcription by inhibiting NF-kappaB activation, which is mediated by a kappaB cis-DNA element located within the first intron of the bic gene. Together these data identify a novel regulatory mechanism for vitamin D to control innate immunity.

Project description:microRNAs (miRNAs) are essential components of gene regulation, but identification of miRNA targets remains a major challenge. Most target prediction and discovery relies on perfect complementarity of the miRNA seed to the 3’ untranslated region (UTR). However, it is unclear to what extent miRNAs target sites without seed matches. Here, we performed a transcriptome-wide identification of the endogenous targets of a single miRNA—miR-155—in a genetically controlled manner. We found that approximately forty percent of miR-155-dependent Argonaute binding occurs at sites without perfect seed matches. The majority of these non-canonical sites feature extensive complementarity to the miRNA seed with one mismatch. These non-canonical sites confer regulation of gene expression albeit less potently than canonical sites. Thus, non-canonical miRNA binding sites are widespread, often contain seed-like motifs, and can regulate gene expression, generating a continuum of targeting and regulation. We used microarrays to measure changes in gene expression between activated wild type (WT) and miR-155 deficient (155KO) primary CD4 T cells. CD4 T cells were harvested from WT and miR-155 KO mice (Thai et al., 2007) and activated for 3 days in vitro. Each array is from a separate biological replicate, which are cells originating from a separate mouse.

Project description:MicroRNAs regulated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) target genes that contribute to the inflammatory phenotype. Here we showed that the protein kinase Akt1, which is activated by LPS, positively regulated miRNAs let-7e, miR-181c but negatively regulated miR-155 and miR-125b. In silico analyses and transfection studies revealed that let-7e repressed Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) whereas miR-155 repressed SOCS1, two proteins critical for LPS-driven TLR signalling, which regulate endotoxin sensitivity and tolerance. As a result, Akt1-/- macrophages exhibited increased responsiveness to LPS in culture and Akt1-/- mice did not develop endotoxin tolerance in vivo. Overexpression of let-7e and suppression of miR-155 in Akt1-/- macrophages restored sensitivity and tolerance to LPS in culture and in animals. These results indicate that Akt1 regulates the response of macrophages to LPS by controlling miRNA expression. The data deposited here contain the entire analysis of miRNA profile of Akt1+/+ and Akt1-/- thioglycollate elicited peritoneal macrophages following stimulation with LPS for 3 hours in culture. Thioglycollate elicited macrophages were cultured in complete DMEM medium, stimulated with LPS for 3 hours and RNA was extracted. Samples were analyzed using Taq-man PCR miRNA arrays (Dana Farber microarray Facility).

Project description:Suppressor of Cytokine Signaling 1 (SOCS1) functions as a tumor suppressor in hepatocellular carcinoma by regulating cytokine, growth factor and other signaling pathways. The tumor suppressor functions of SOCS1 are mediated partly via promoting ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation of several signaling proteins. In this study, we used an unbiased approach to characterize SOCS1-mediated changes in the protein profile of hepatocytes. The murine HCC cell line Hepa1-6 transduced with wildtype SOCS1, an SH2 domain mutant or the empty lentiviral vector were grown in Stable Isotopic Labelling of Amino acids in Cell culture (SILAC) media. The cells were stimulated with hepatocyte growth factor or left at steady state. Following cell lysis, proteins were separated on SDS-PAGE gels and peptides extracted by in-gel trypsinization were analyzed by mass spectrometry. Differentially modulated proteins identified and quantified were subjected to pathway enrichment analysis. In total, 3440 proteins were identified in Hepa cells in the presence of SOCS1 at steady state, of which 181 proteins were significantly modulated by SOCS1. The SH2 domain mutation and HGF stimulation increased the number of differentially modulated proteins, which showed only a limited overlap with SOCS1-modulated proteins. Protein interaction network analysis revealed enrichment of SOCS1-modulated proteins within multiprotein complexes such as ubiquitin conjugating enzymes, proteasome, mRNA spliceosome, mRNA exosome and mitochondrial ribosome. Further analysis indicated SOCS1-dependent regulation of the UBE2D ubiquitin conjugating enzymes, which are implicated in growth factor receptor signaling, indirectly via an unknown protein. Given the ubiquitous and highly regulated induction of SOCS1 by diverse cellular stimuli, our findings suggest a fundamental role of SOCS1 in regulating large macromolecular complexes that are important for cellular homeostasis.

Project description:Toxoplasma gondii is an obligate intracellular protozoan with anti-tumor activity against a variety of cancers. However, the therapeutic effect of T. gondii on colorectal cancer is unclear, and using direct Toxoplasma infection in immunotherapy involves safety concerns. This study investigated the anti-tumor effect and mechanism of exosomes derived from dendritic cells (DC) infected with T. gondii (Me49-DC-Exo). We used the density gradient centrifugation to isolate exosomes from uninfected DCs (DC-Exo) and T. gondii Me49-infected DCs (Me49-DC-Exo). The isolated exosomes were identified by transmission electron microscopy, nanoparticle tracking analysis, and western blotting. Me49-DC-Exo significantly inhibited tumor growth and reduced the proportion of M2 macrophages in the blood of tumor-bearing mice. In vitro, Me49-DC-Exo suppressed macrophage (RAW264.7) polarization to M2 phenotype. miRNA sequencing revealed that multiple miRNAs in Me49-DC-Exo were differentially expressed compared with DC-Exo. miR-182-5p, miR-155-5p, miR-125b-2-3p, and miR-155-3p were up-regulated, while miR-9-5p was significantly down-regulated. Transfecting mimics or inhibitors of these differential miRNAs into RAW264.7 cells showed that miR-155-5p promoted M1 macrophage polarization while inhibiting M2 macrophage polarization. Bioinformatics prediction and dual-luciferase reporter assay confirmed the suppressor of cytokine signaling 1 (SOCS1) as a direct target of miR-155-5p. Silencing SOCS1 gene expression in RAW264.7 cells increased CD86 + CD206 - M1 macrophage proportion and inducible nitric oxide synthase and tumor necrosis factor-α mRNA levels. However, arginase1 and transglutaminase 2 expression levels decreased. These results suggest that the exosomes inhibit macrophage polarization to M2 phenotype and regulate SOCS1 expression by delivering functional miR-155-5p. These findings provide new ideas for colorectal cancer immunotherapy.
