Project description:Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-associated gastric carcinoma (EBVaGC) is a distinct entity that has conspicuously tumor microenvironment compared with EBV-negative gastric carcinoma. However, the exact role of EBV in gastric carcinogenesis remains elusive. In the present study, we found that EBV upregulated CXCL8 expression, and CXCL8 significantly promoted vasculogenic mimicry (VM) formation of gastric carcinoma cells. In accordance with these observations, CXCL8 increased cell proliferation and migration of AGS and BGC823 cells, respectively. In addition, activation of NF-κB signaling was involved in VM formation induced by CXCL8, which was blocked by NF-κB inhibitor BAY 11-7082. Furthermore, EBV encoded lncRNA RPMS1 activated the NF-κB signaling cascade, which is responsible for EBV-induced VM formation. Both xenografts and clinical samples of EBVaGC exhibit VM histologically, which are correlated with CXCL8 over-expression. Finally, CXCL8 is positively correlated with overall survival in gastric carcinoma patients. In conclusion, EBV-upregulated CXCL8 expression promotes VM formation in gastric carcinoma via NF-κB signaling and CXCL8 may serve as a novel anti-tumor target for EBVaGC.

Project description:Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is an etiologic risk factor, and likely prerequisite, for the development of multiple sclerosis (MS). However, the role of EBV infected B cells in the immunopathology of MS is not well understood. Here, we characterized spontaneous lymphoblastoid cell lines (SLCLs) isolated from MS patients and healthy controls (HC) ex vivo to study EBV and host gene expression in the context of an individual’s endogenous EBV. SLCLs derived from MS patient B cells during active disease had higher EBV lytic gene expression than SLCLs from MS patients with stable disease or HCs. Host gene expression analysis revealed activation of pathways associated with hypercytokinemia and interferon signaling in MS SLCLs and differential expression of several genes, including upregulation of forkhead box protein 1 (FOXP1), which contributes to EBV lytic gene expression. In addition, we demonstrate that antiviral approaches targeting EBV replication decreased inflammatory cytokine production and diminished autologous CD4+ T cell responses. These data suggest that dysregulation of intrinsic B-cell control of EBV gene expression drives a pro-inflammatory, pathogenic B cell phenotype that can be attenuated by suppressing EBV lytic gene expression.

Project description:In this study, analysis of miRNA expression changes in osteoclast differentiation from human primary monocytes revealed the rapid upregulation of two miRNA clusters, miR-212/132 and miR-99b/let-7e/125a. We demonstrate that they negatively target monocyte-specific and immunomodulatory genes like TNFAIP3, IGF1R and IL15. Depletion of these miRNAs inhibits osteoclast differentiation and upregulates their targets. These miRNAs are also upregulated in other inflammatory monocytic differentiation processes. Most importantly, we demonstrate for the first time the direct involvement of Nuclear Factor kappa B (NF-κB) in the regulation of these miRNAs, as well as with their targets, whereby NF-κB p65 binds the promoters of these two miRNA clusters and NF-κB inhibition or depletion results in impaired upregulation of their expression. Human primary CD14+ cells isolated from three different donors, and differentiated into osteoclast with MCSF and RANKL for 21 days. miRNA expression analyzed in paired samples at day 0, 2 and 21

Project description:Most humans are infected with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), a cancer-causing virus. While EBV generally persists silently in B lymphocytes, periodic lytic (re-)activation of latent virus is central to its life cycle and to most EBV-related diseases. However, a substantial fraction of EBV-infected B cells and tumor cells in a population is refractory to lytic activation. This resistance to lytic activation directly and profoundly impacts viral persistence and effectiveness of oncolytic therapy for EBV+ cancers. To identify the mechanisms that underlie susceptibility to EBV-lytic activation, we used host protein-expression profiling of separated-lytic and -refractory cells.

Project description:The microenvironment is an important regulator of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell (HSPC) biology. Interactions between the niche and stem cells have been difficult to track, but recent advances marking fluorescent HSPCs have allowed exquisite visualization in the caudal hematopoietic tissue (CHT) of the developing zebrafish. Sinusoidal endothelial cells interact closely with HSPCs as they colonize this niche. Here we show that the chemokine cxcl8 and its receptor, cxcr1, are abundantly expressed by zebrafish endothelial cells and we identify cxcl8/cxcr1 signaling as a positive regulator of HSPC colonization using genetic gain- and loss-of-function techniques. Single-cell tracking experiments demonstrated that this effect is due to an increase in HSPC “cuddling” by endothelial cells, thereby increasing CHT residency time and allowing more HSPC cell divisions to occur. Enhanced cxcl8/cxcr1 signaling was associated with an increase in the volume of the CHT and induction of cxcl12a expression, favoring HSPC colonization. Finally, using parabiotic zebrafish, we show that cxcr1 acts stem cell non-autonomously to improve the efficiency of donor HSPC engraftment. This work identifies a mechanism by which the hematopoietic niche remodels to promote HSPC engraftment and suggests that cxcl8/cxcr1 signaling is a potential therapeutic target in patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Project description:CXCL8 is produced by many cell types including epithelial, endothelial, fibroblasts and macrophages in response to TLR recognition of microbe-associated molecular patterns (MAMPs) or inflammatory cytokines and recruits phagocytes from the vasculature to sites of infection via interaction with its cognate receptors CXCR1 and CXCR2. In the intestine, CXCL8 has been demonstrated to participate in the migration of neutrophils across the epithelium during acute inflammation. Given the well-recognized role of CXCL8 as an initiator of inflammation and the constant presence of commensal bacteria in the intestinal tract, we hypothesized that in the intestinal epithelium, CXCL8 might be secreted in a vectorial fashion depending on the location and type of stimulus as a mechanism to maintain homeostasis. In addition, we hypothesized that the CXCR1 receptor might control specific functions in polarized IECs depending on its location. We tested these hypotheses using microarray gene expression profiling of IL-8 treated and mock-treated Caco-2 cell lines This study was set up according to a one-treatment, one-control design. It contains individual transcriptional profiles from 3 IL-8-treated and 3 buffer control-treated samples. In total, this study includes data from 3 Caco-2 samples x 2 treatments=6 arrays.

Project description:Vasculogenic mimicry has been generally accepted as a new form of tumor vascularization and regarded as an unfavorable prognostic factor in multiple aggressive malignancies. We previously reported the presence of vasculogenic mimicry in osteosarcoma patients. The mechanistic basis for osteosarcoma VM remains unclear. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression between 143B cells and HOS cells exposed to Matrigel which showed greatly different vasculogenic mimicry formation potential and identified distinct classes of vasculogenic mimicry-realted genes during this process.

Project description:We produced and analyzed the transcriptomic profiles of agressive plasmablastic lymphomas to describe their "immune escape" profile, depending on their viral status (HIV, EBV, ...). We used microarrays to compare the global gene expression profile between EBV+ and EBV- PL subtypes. This analysis unveiled the interest of treating EBV+ PL patients by immune checkpoint blockade strategies. Plasmablastic lymphoma (PL) is a subtype of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma occurring frequently in HIV-positive individuals and most often associated with Epstein Barr Virus infection. Despite recent therapeutic progress, PL still is an aggressive lymphoma with adverse prognosis. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the emerging strategies of immune checkpoint blockade could be efficient for PL patients. Here, we produced and analyzed the transcriptomic profiles of such tumors to address this question. Unsupervised hierarchical analysis of PL samples showed that PL segregated according to their EBV-status. Moreover, we report that EBV+ PL displayed a significant association with abundant leucocyte infiltrate and selective T-cell activation signatures, together with high level of inhibitory receptors and immune checkpoint markers. We propose that EBV infection induced an anti-viral cytotoxic immunity which progressively exhausted and promoted the tolerogenic tumor microenvironment of PL. Hence, most EBV+ PL patients presenting an early stage of cancer immune-editing process appear eligible for ICB immunotherapies.
