Project description:Stress exerts profound impacts on the gastrointestinal tract, yet its effects on intestinal stem cells (ISCs) have not been fully explored. Here, we unveiled a notable reduction in both the quantity and proliferative capacity of ISCs under chronic stress condition, which was mediated by elevated corticosterone levels resulting from the activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. Mechanistically, corticosterone directly impairs ISCs by interacting with its receptor, nuclear receptor subfamily 3 group c member 1 (NR3C1), which promoted FKBP prolyl isomerase 5 (FKBP5) expression to negatively regulate the AKT activation by mediating the dephosphorylation at the Ser473, thus enhancing the nuclear translocation of the forkhead box O (FoxO) to inhibit the proliferative activity. Collectively, these findings provide a novel mechanistic insight into the deleterious effects of psychological stress on gut, and underscore corticosterone as a key mediator linking stress to ISCs dysfunction.

Project description:Elevated glucocorticoids feature body’s responses to a variety of psychological and physiological stressors. To understand how glucocorticoids affect brain endothelial cells that form the blood-brain barrier, we applied quantitative proteomics to study changes in the proteome of a mouse brain endothelial cell line, bEnd3, upon acute 24-hour treatment with 5 uM corticosterone in vitro.

Project description:Chronic, sustained exposure to stressors can profoundly impact tissue homeostasis, although the mechanisms by which these changes occur are largely unknown. Here, we report the adrenal gland-derived stress hormone corticosterone (the rodent equivalent of cortisol) regulates hair follicle stem cell (HFSC) quiescence and hair growth in mice. Without systemic corticosterone, HFSCs enter substantially more rounds of the regeneration cycle throughout life. Conversely, under chronic stress, elevated corticosterone levels prolong HFSC quiescence and keep hair follicles in an extended resting phase. Mechanistically, corticosterone acts on dermal papilla (DP) to suppress the expression of a secreted factor, Growth Arrest Specific 6 (Gas6). Restoring Gas6 expression overcomes stress-induced inhibition of HFSC activation and hair growth. Our work identifies corticosterone as a systemic inhibitor of HFSC activity via its impact on the niche, and demonstrates that removal of such inhibition drives HFSCs into frequent regeneration cycles with no observable defects long-term.

Project description:Mental health profoundly impacts inflammatory responses in the body. This is particularly apparent in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), where psychological stress is associated with disease flares. Here, we discover a critical role for the enteric nervous system (ENS) in mediating the aggravating effect of chronic stress on intestinal inflammation. We find that chronically elevated levels of glucocorticoids drive the generation of an inflammatory subset of enteric glia that promotes monocyte- and TNF-mediated colitis via CSF1. Additionally, glucocorticoids cause transcriptional immaturity in enteric neurons, acetylcholine deficiency, and dysmotility via TGFβ2. We verify the connection between the psychological state, intestinal inflammation, and dysmotility in two cohorts of human IBD patients. Together, these findings offer a mechanistic explanation for the impact of the brain on peripheral inflammation, define the ENS as a relay between psychological stress and gut inflammation, and suggest that stress management could serve as a valuable component of IBD care.

Project description:Background: The epididymis has long been of interest owing to its role in promoting the functional maturation of the male germline. More recent evidence has also implicated the epididymis as an important sensory tissue responsible for remodeling of the sperm epigenome, both under physiological conditions and in response to diverse forms of environmental stress. Despite this knowledge, the intricacies of the molecular pathways involved in regulating the adaptation of epididymal tissue to paternal stressors remains to be fully resolved. Objective: The overall objective of this study was to investigate the direct impact of corticosterone challenge on a tractable epididymal epithelial cell line (i.e., mECap18 cells) in terms of driving adaptation of the cellular proteome and phosphoproteome signaling networks. Materials and methods: The newly developed phosphoproteomic platform EasyPhos coupled with sequencing via an Orbitrap Exploris 480 mass spectrometer was applied to survey global changes in the mECap18 cell (phospho)proteome resulting from sub-chronic (10-day) corticosterone challenge.Results: The imposed corticosterone exposure regimen elicited relatively subtle modifications of the global mECap18 proteome [i.e., only 73/4171 (~1.8%) proteins displayed altered abundance]. By contrast, ~15% of the mECap18 phosphoproteome was substantially altered following corticosterone challenge. In-silico analysis of the corresponding parent proteins revealed an activation of pathways linked to DNA damage repair and oxidative stress responses as well as a reciprocal inhibition of pathways associated with organismal death. Corticosterone challenge also induced the phosphorylation of several proteins linked to the biogenesis of microRNAs. Accordingly, orthogonal validation strategies confirmed an increased in DNA damage, which was ameliorated upon selective kinase inhibition, and an altered abundance profile of a subset of microRNAs in corticosterone-treated cells. Conclusions: Together, these data confirm that epididymal epithelial cells are reactive to corticosterone challenge and that their response is tightly coupled to the opposing action of cellular kinases and phosphatases.

Project description:Individual differences in basal leukocyte gene expression profiles as a function of hedonic and eudaimonic well-being, and psychological and social sub-dimensions of eudaimonic well-being. Gene expression profiling was carried out on peripheral blood mononuclear cell RNA samples collected from 122 healthy adults measured for hedonic and eudaimonic dimensions of well-being using the Short Flourishing Scale (Keyes, C (2014). The Mental Health Continuum-Short Form (MHC-SF) for adults). Higher values of the hedonic well-being scale indicate greater levels of positive affect, higher values of eudaimonic well-being scale indicate greater experience of purpose and meaning in life, higher values of social well-being scale indicate greater experience of social well-being in life, higher values of psychological well-being scale indicate greater experience of psychological well-being in life, greater TotalMHCSF scores indicate greater experience of all forms of well-being measured by the MHC-SF, the FlourishGroup indicates idividuals showing flourishing mental health as defined by the MHC-SF scoring instructions referenced above, greater BrownPsychological scores indicate greater experience of psychological well-being as measured by the MHC-SF with an alternative scoring, and greater BrownSocial scores indicate greater experience of social well-being as measured by the MHC-SF with an alternative scoring.
