Viperin; regulating chondrogenic differentiation via CXCL10 protein secretion

ABSTRACT: Mutations in the RMRP gene are the origin of cartilage-hair hypoplasia. Cartilage-hair hypoplasia is associated with severe dwarfism caused by impaired skeletal development. However, it is not clear why mutations in the RMRP gene lead to skeletal dysplasia. Viperin is a known substrate of RMRP. Since chondrogenic differentiation of the growth plate is required for development of the long bones, we hypothesized that viperin functions as a chondrogenic regulator downstream of RMRP. Viperin protein is expressed throughout the stages of chondrogenic differentiation in vivo. Viperin gene expression is increased during knockdown of Rmrp RNA in the ATDC5 model for chondrogenic differentiation. Viperin is expressed during ATDC5 chondrogenic differentiation. Viperin knockdown reduces, while viperin overexpression increases overall protein secretion, with CXCL10 identified as a potential target via mass spectrometry-proteomics. CXCL10 protein expression is reduced during knockdown and increased during overexpression of viperin and CXCL10 protein expression coincides with viperin expression in ATDC5 chondrogenic differentiation. Viperin knockdown induces, while viperin overexpression reduces TGFβ activity. Furthermore, viperin knockdown conditioned media increases, while viperin overexpression conditioned media reduces chondrogenic differentiation of ATDC5 cells. TGFβ target genes Pai1 and Smad7 are increased during knockdown and reduced during overexpression of viperin. Moreover, TGFβ activity is reduced when differentiating ATDC5 cells are exposed to CXCL10 and, acting as a viperin overexpression mimic, CXCL10 similarly reduces chondrogenic differentiation of ATDC5. Lastly, we show that in CHH patient cells, RMRP expression is reduced and viperin expression is increased, coinciding with reduced chondrogenic differentiation and increased CXCL10 expression, possibly explaining the CHH phenotype. Together our data show that viperin may play a pivotal role in chondrogenic differentiation, with potential consequences for cartilage-hair hypoplasia pathobiology.

Viperin (also known as radical SAM domain-containing 2 (RSAD2)) is an interferon-inducible and evolutionary conserved protein that participates in the cell's innate immune response against a number of viruses. <i>Viperin</i> mRNA is a substrate for endoribonucleolytic cleavage by RNase mitochondrial RNA processing (MRP) and mutations in the RNase MRP small nucleolar RNA (snoRNA) subunit of the RNase MRP complex cause cartilage-hair hypoplasia (CHH), a human developmental condition characterized ...[more]

Project description:Introduction: In addition to the well-known cartilage extracellular matrix-related expression of Sox9, we demonstrated that chondrogenic differentiation of progenitor cells is driven by a sharply defined bi-phasic expression of Sox9: an immediate early and a late (extracellular matrix associated) phase expression. In this study we aimed to determine what biological processes are driven by Sox9 during this early phase of chondrogenic differentiation. Materials: Sox9 expression in ATDC5 cells was knocked-down by siRNA transfection at the day before chondrogenic differentiation or at day 6 of differentiation. Samples were harvested at 2 hours, and 7 days of differentiation. The mRNA sequencing library was generated using TruSeq mRNA sample preparation kit (Illumina, Eindhoven, the Netherlands). In short, mRNA was enriched using magnetic beads coated with poly-dT, followed by fragmentation. The fragmented mRNA enriched samples were subjected to cDNA synthesis by reverse transcriptase, followed by dA-tailing and ligation of specific double-stranded bar-coded adapters. Next, the library was amplified and following cleanup the sizes of the libraries were determined on an Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer via a DNA 1000 chip according manufacturer’s protocol. Pooled libraries consisting of equal molar samples were sequenced on a high-output 75bp single read on the NextSeq500 (Illumina). For each sample, the number of reads covering one or more exons of a given transcript were extracted. Triplicates of samples that were treated with either Scrambled or Sox9 siRNAs, at two different time points, were grouped separately. A transcript was defined as expressed when all replicates of a group had at least 5 reads extracted within the transcript's region. The grouped data were then compared to one another. The fold-change difference and the p-value were calculated using R-package edgeR, after which the p-value was corrected for multiple testing (false discovery rate (FDR)-corrected). The transcriptomes using a RNA-seq approach was analyzed using pathway and network analyses. Results: Early Sox9 knockdown severely inhibited chondrogenic differentiation weeks later. Sox9 expression during the immediate early phase of ATDC5 chondrogenic differentiation regulated the expression of ribosome biogenesis factors and ribosomal protein subunits. This was accompanied by decreased translational capacity following Sox9 knockdown, and this correlated to lower amounts of active mono- and polysomes. Moreover, cap- versus IRES-mediated translation was altered by Sox9 knockdown. Sox9 overexpression was able to induce reciprocal effects to the Sox9 knockdown.

Project description:Translation initiation factor eIF4E is overexpressed early in breast cancers in association with disease progression and reduced survival. Much remains to be understood regarding the role of eIF4E in human cancer. Using immortalized human breast epithelial cells, we report that elevated expression of elF4E translationally activates the TGFβ pathway, promoting cell invasion, loss of cell polarity, increased cell survival and other hallmarks of early neoplasia. Overexpression of eIF4E is shown to facilitate selective translation of integrin β1 mRNA, which drives the translationally controlled assembly of a TGFβ receptor signaling complex containing α3β1 integrins, β-catenin, TGFβ receptor I, E-cadherin and phosphorylated Smads2/3. This receptor complex acutely sensitizes non-malignant breast epithelial cells to activation by typically sub-stimulatory levels of activated TGFβ. TGFβ can promote cellular differentiation or invasion and transformation. As a translational coactivator of TGFβ, eIF4E confers selective mRNA translation, reprogramming non-malignant cells to an invasive phenotype by reducing the set-point for stimulation by activated TGFβ. Overexpression of eIF4E may be a pro-invasive facilitator of TGFβ activity. MCF10A cells were subjected to consitutive silencing with a non-silencing control shRNA or an shRNA to eIF4E. Total RNA, light polysomal RNA (2-3 ribosome fraction) and heavy polysomal RNA (greater than or equal to 4 ribosome fraction) were purified and used for hybridization to Affymetrix 133 2.0 Plus arrays. Data analysis was conducted using MicroArray Suite Software from Affymetrix. To remove probe sets with insignificant differences between perfect match and mismatch data, which creates a more robust data set of greater clarity without a high level of background noise, discrimination values for each probe pair were calculated for low intensity ratios using Wilcoxon signed rank test to assess significance and data re-assigned as either changed or unchanged mRNAs. Data sets were compared using Expressionist Suite software. Significance of mRNAs were assessed using fold changes and the FDRs estimated based on t-tests.

Project description:Fibroblast growth factor-2 delays the loss of chondrogenic potential in adult bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells; We compared human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs), expanded long-term with and without fibroblast growth factor (FGF) supplementation, with respect to their proliferation rate, and ability to differentiate along the chondrogenic pathway in vitro. hMSCs expanded in FGF-supplemented medium proliferated more rapidly than those expanded under control conditions. Aggregates of FGF-treated cells exhibited chondrogenic differentiation at passages 1 through 7, although, in some of the preparations, chondrogenic differentiation was somewhat diminished after seventh passage. Aggregates made with control cells differentiated along the chondrogenic lineage at first passage but exhibited only marginal chondrogenic differentiation after four passages and failed to form cartilage after seven passages. Microarray analysis of gene expression identified 334 transcripts that were differentially expressed in fourth passage control cells which had reduced chondrogenic potential compared to fourth passage FGF-treated cells which retained this differentiation capacity and 243 transcripts that were differentially expressed when comparing them to first passage control cells which were also capable of differentiating into chondrocytes. The intersection of these analyses yielded 49 transcripts that were differentially expressed in cells that exhibited chondrogenic differentiation in vitro compared to cells that did not. These preliminary data must now be validated to verify whether the different gene expression profiles translate into functional differences. These findings suggest that care should be exercised when extensively expanding these cells for cartilage tissue engineering applications. Experiment Overall Design: hMSCs from three different donors were expanded for up to seven passages with or without FGF supplementation. At the end of first, fourth and seventh passages the chondrogenic potential and gene expression progfiles were analyzed.
