Lyve-1 deficiency plasma proteomics

ABSTRACT: Hyaluronan receptor LYVE-1 is expressed by liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSEC), lymphatic endothelial cells and specialized macrophages. Besides binding hyaluronan, LYVE-1 mediates adhesion of leukocytes and cancer cells to endothelial cells. Here, we analyzed the impact of LYVE-1 on physiological liver functions and metastasis. Mice with deficiency of Lyve-1 (Lyve-1 KO) were analyzed using histology, immunofluorescence, RNA sequencing, plasma proteomics and flow cytometry. Liver metastasis was studied by intrasplenic/intravenous injection of melanoma (B16F10luc2, WT31) or colorectal carcinoma (MC38) cell lines. Results: Hepatic architecture, liver size, endothelial differentiation and angiocrine functions were unaltered in Lyve-1 KO mice. Hyaluronan plasma levels were significantly increased in Lyve-1-KO mice; besides, plasma proteomics revealed increased carbonic anhydrase-2 and decreased FXIIIA, potential modulators of metastatis. Furthermore, gene expression analysis of LSEC indicated regulation of immunological pathways. Therefore, liver metastasis of a highly and of a weekly immunogenic tumor, i.e. melanoma and colorectal carcinoma (CRC), was analyzed in Lyve-1 KO mice. Hepatic metastasis of B16F10 luc2 and WT31 melanoma cells, but not MC38 CRC cells, was significantly reduced in Lyve-1 KO mice. While short-term adhesion assays with B16F10 luc2 cells in vivo did not show differences between Lyve-1 KO and wild-type mice, increased numbers of resident hepatic CD4+, CD8+ and regulatory T cells were detected in Lyve-1 KO livers. In addition, iron deposition was detected in F4/80+ liver macrophages known to exert pro-inflammatory effects. Conclusions: LYVE-1 deficiency controlled hepatic metastasis in a tumor cell-specific manner reducing hepatic metastasis of melanoma, but not CRC. Anti-tumorigenic effects are likely due to enhancement of the resident hepatic immune microenvironment.

Project description:Angiocrine signaling by liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSEC) regulates liver functions such as liver growth, metabolic maturation, and regeneration. Recently, we identified GATA4 as the master regulator of LSEC specification during development. Here, we studied endothelial GATA4 in the adult liver and in hepatic disease pathogenesis. We generated adult Clec4g-icretg/0xGata4fl/fl (Gata4LSEC KO) mice with deficiency of Gata4 in LSEC. Livers were analyzed by histology, electron microscopy, immunohistochemistry/immunofluorescence, in-situ hybridization, and by expression profiling and ATAC-sequencing of isolated LSEC. For liver regeneration, partial hepatectomy was performed. As models of liver fibrosis, CDAA diet and chronic CCl4 exposure were applied. Human single cell RNAseq data sets were analyzed for endothelial alterations in healthy and cirrhotic livers. Genetic Gata4 deficiency in LSEC in adult mice caused perisinusoidal liver fibrosis, hepatopathy and impaired liver regeneration. Sinusoidal capillarization and LSEC-to-continuous endothelial transdifferentiation were accompanied by a profibrotic angiocrine switch including de novo endothelial expression of hepatic stellate cell-activating cytokine PDGFB. Increased chromatin accessibility and amplification by activated Myc mediated angiocrine PDGFB expression. In CDAA diet-induced perisinusoidal liver fibrosis, LSEC showed repression of GATA4, activation of MYC and the profibrotic angiocrine switch already detected in Gata4LSEC KO mice. Comparison of CDAA-fed Gata4LSEC KO and control mice demonstrated that endothelial Gata4 indeed protects from dietary-induced perisinusoidal liver fibrosis. In human cirrhotic livers, Gata4-positive LSEC and endothelial Gata4 target genes were reduced, while non-LSEC endothelial cells and Myc target genes including PDGFB were enriched. Endothelial GATA4 protects from perisinusoidal liver fibrosis by repressing MYC activation and profibrotic angiocrine signaling on the chromatin level. Therapies targeting the GATA4/MYC/PDGFB/PDGFRβ axis offer a promising strategy for the prevention and treatment of liver fibrosis.
