Project description:Background: Skeletal muscle crucially depends on motor innervation, and, when damaged, on the resident muscle stem cells (MuSCs). However, the role and function of MuSCs in the context of denervation remains poorly understood. Methods: Alterations of MuSCs and their myofiber niche after denervation were investigated in a surgery-based mouse model of unilateral sciatic nerve transection. FACS-isolated MuSCs were subjected to RNA-sequencing and mass spectrometry for the analysis of intrinsic changes after denervation and in vivo assays, such as Cardiotoxin-induced muscle injury or MuSC transplantation, were performed to assess MuSC functions after denervation. Bioinformatic and histological analyses were conducted to further examine MuSCs and their myofiber niche after denervation. Results: Muscle cross section analysis revealed a significant increase in Pax7 (p-value= 0.0441), Pax7/Ki67 (p-value= 0.0023), MyoD (p-value= 0.0016) and Myog (p-value= 0.0057) positive cells after denervation, illustrating a break of quiescence and commitment to the myogenic lineage. An Omics approach showed profound intrinsic alterations on the mRNA (2613 differentially expressed genes, p-value <0.05) and protein (1096 differentially abundant proteins, q-value <0.05) level of MuSCs 21 days after denervation. Skeletal muscle injury together with denervation surgery caused deregulated regeneration, indicated by the reduced number of proliferating MuSCs and sustained high levels of developmental myosin heavy chain (Sham: 1 % vs DEN: 40 % of all myofibers), at 21 days post-surgery. In a transplantation assay, MuSCs from a denervated host were still able to engraft and fuse to form new myofibers, irrespective of the innervation status of the recipient muscle. Analysis of myofibers revealed not only massive changes in the expression profile (10492 differentially expressed genes, p-value <0.05) after denervation, but it was also shown that secretion of Opn and Tgfb1 from denervated myofibers was increased 30-fold and 6000-fold, respectively. Bioinformatic analyses indicated strong upregulation of gene expression of the transcription factor Junb in MuSCs from denervated muscles (log2 fold change = 3.27). Of interest, Tgfb1 recombinant protein was able to induce Junb gene expression in vitro, demonstrating that myofiber-secreted ligands can induce gene expression changes in MuSCs, which might result in the phenotypes observed after denervation. Conclusion: Skeletal muscle denervation is altering myofiber secretion, causing MuSC activation and profound intrinsic changes, leading to reduced regenerative capacity. As MuSCs possess a remarkable regenerative potential, they might represent a promising target for novel treatment options for neuromuscular disorders and peripheral nerve injuries.

Project description:Severe asthma and sinus disease is a consequence of Type 2 inflammation (T2I), mediated by IL-33 signaling through its membrane-bound receptor, ST2. Soluble (s)ST2 reduces available IL-33 and limits T2I, but little is known about its regulation. We demonstrate that prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) drives production of sST2 to limit features of lung T2I. PGE2 deficient mice display diminished sST2. In humans with severe respiratory T2I, urinary PGE2 metabolites correlate with serum sST2. In mice, PGE2 enhanced sST2 secretion by mast cells (MCs). Mice lacking MCs, ST2 expression by MCs or EP2 receptors by MCs showed reduced sST2 lung concentrations and strong T2I. Recombinant sST2 reduced T2I in mice lacking PGE2 or ST2 expression by MCs back to control levels. PGE2 deficiency also reversed the hyperinflammatory phenotype in mice lacking ST2 expression by MCs. PGE2 thus suppresses T2I through MC-derived sST2, explaining the severe T2I observed in low PGE2 states.

Project description:PGE2 is a major mediator of inflammation and is present at high concentrations in the synovial fluid of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. PGE2, acting through the EP4 receptor, has both pro- and anti-inflammatory roles in vivo. To shed light on this dual role of PGE2, we investigated its effects in whole blood and in primary human fibroblast-like synoviocytes. Gene expression analysis in human leukocytes, confirmed at the protein level, revealed an EP4-dependent inhibition of the expression of genes involved in the IFN-gamma activation pathway, including IFN-gamma itself. This effect of the PGE2/EP4 axis on IFN-gamma is a reciprocal phenomenon since IFN-gamma blocks PGE2 release and blocks EP receptor expression. The mutually antagonistic relationship between IFN-gamma and PGE2 extends to downstream cytokine- and chemokine-release; PGE2 counters the effects of IFN-gamma, on the release of IP-10, IL-8, TNFalpha and IL-1beta. To gain further insight into IFN-gamma-mediated cellular events in rheumatoid arthritis, we assessed the effects of IFN-gamma on gene expression in fibroblast-like synoviocytes. We observed an IFN-gamma-dependent up-regulation of macrophage-attracting chemokines, and down-regulation of metalloprotease expression. These results suggest the existence of a mutually antagonistic relationship between PGE2 and IFN-gamma which may represent a fundamental mechanism of immune control in diseases such as RA.

Project description:Tumour immune escape is a major factor contributing to cancer progression and unresponsiveness to cancer therapies. Tumours can produce prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), an inflammatory mediator that directly acts on NK cells to inhibit anti-tumour immunity. However, it is unclear precisely how PGE2 influences NK cell tumour-restraining functions. Here, we investigated how treatment with PGE2 over 24 hours affects gene expression in human NK cells.

Project description:Recognition of foreign antigens by B cell receptor (BCR) on mature B cells leads to their clonal expansion, which is critically important for the effective host defence of the organism. However, excessive antigenic responses or reaction of B cells against bodyâs own components frequently lead to diverse immune diseases, such as B-cell lymphoma or autoimmunity, that often affect humans. Identification of genes that restrain uncontrolled proliferation of B cells is therefore an important goal towards understanding the origin of such diseases. Here we identify Ptger4 as a negative feedback regulator of B-cell proliferation in response to BCR triggering, and show that its encoded EP4 receptor is a principal molecule conveying the growth-suppressive effect of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2). In controlled in vitro assays, Ptger4-/- B cells showed augmented proliferative response and increased expression of activating genes upon BCR stimulation. Stable knock-down of Ptger4 in B-cell lymphoma markedly accelerated tumour spread in mice, while Ptger4 overexpression yielded significant protection. Lack of Ptger4 rendered mouse B cells completely resistant to proliferation arrest signalled by PGE2, and we find by transcriptional profiling that intrinsic activity of Ptger4 and PGE2-EP4 signalling target a similar set of activating genes. We further show that Ptger4 inhibits mouse B-cell activation in vivo and find it significantly downregulated in human B-cell lymphoma. Our results demonstrate that Ptger4 functions in B cells as a candidate tumour suppressor whose activity is regulated by the presence of PGE2 in the microenvironment. These findings suggest that targeting EP4 receptor for prostaglandin may present a novel strategy for treatment of B-cell diseases. Keywords: time course, cell type comparison, compound treatment design, microarray experiment record B cells were extracted from spleen of Ptger4+/+ and Ptger4-/- mice, and incubated in vitro for the indicated period with or without anti-IgM (Fab')2 antibody fragments and co-treated with or without PGE2. Total RNA was extracted, amplified, labelled with Cy3 or Cy5, and hybridized to mouse 24k oligo-arrays using a dye-swap strategy.

Project description:Adult skeletal muscle regeneration is mainly driven by muscle stem cells (MuSCs), which are highly heterogeneous. Although recent studies have started to characterize the heterogeneity of MuSCs, whether a subset of cells with distinct exists within MuSCs remains unanswered. Here, we found that a population of MuSCs, marked by Gli1 expression, is required for muscle regeneration. The Gli1+ MuSC population displayed advantages in proliferation and differentiation both in vitro and in vivo. Depletion of this population led to delayed muscle regeneration, while transplanted Gli1+ MuSCs supported muscle regeneration more effectively than Gli1- MuSCs. Further analysis revealed that even in the uninjured muscle, Gli1+ MuSCs had elevated mTOR signaling activity, increased cell size and mitochondrial numbers compared to Gli1- MuSCs, indicating Gli1+ MuSCs are displaying the features of primed MuSCs. Moreover, Gli1+ MuSCs greatly contributed to the formation of GAlert cells after muscle injury. Collectively, our findings demonstrate that Gli1+ MuSCs represent a distinct MuSC population which is more active in the homeostatic muscle and enters the cell cycle shortly after injury. This cell population functions as the tissue-resident sentinel that rapidly responds to injury and initiates muscle regeneration.
