Project description:Hyperactivation of the NLRP3 inflammasome has been linked to disease progression in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). However, the precise mechanisms behind this pathology remain elusive. Here, we highlight not only a significant correlation between elevated NLRP3 expression and diminished overall survival in AML patients, but also a potential pathomechanism. We show that genetic deletion and pharmacological inhibition of NLRP3 leads to a reduction in AML cell survival by triggering apoptosis. Additionally, our proteomic analyses revealed NLRP3-dependent alterations in protein translation, substantiated by increased eIF2α phosphorylation in NLRP3-deficient AML cells. Furthermore, we show that inhibition of the eIF2α kinase PERK mitigates eIF2α phosphorylation and decreases apoptosis by reducing the expression of pro-apoptotic Bcl-2 family members to levels comparable to those of wild-type cells. Substantiating these observations, we found that deleting NLRP3 in engrafted AML cells led to reduced splenomegaly and AML cell infiltration into organs in mice. Taken together, our findings demonstrate that blocking NLRP3 induces apoptosis via PERK/eIF2, revealing a promising avenue for therapeutic intervention in AML.

Project description:Bleeding and altered iron distribution occur in multiple gastrointestinal diseases, but the significance or regulation of these changes remains unclear. Here we report that hepcidin, the master regulator of systemic iron homeostasis, is required for tissue repair in the intestine following experimental damage. This effect was independent of hepatocyte-derived hepcidin or systemic iron levels. Rather, we identified that conventional dendritic cells (DCs) are a source of hepcidin that is induced by microbial stimulation, prominent in the inflamed intestine of humans, and essential for tissue repair. Mechanistically, DC-derived hepcidin acted on ferroportin-expressing phagocytes to promote local iron sequestration, which regulated the microbiota and subsequently facilitated intestinal repair. Collectively, these results identify a novel pathway whereby DC-derived hepcidin promotes mucosal healing in the intestine via nutritional immunity.

Project description:Hepcidin is demonstrated to be the key iron regulatory hormone, produced by the liver. Here we show an unexpected role of hepcidin as a master initiator of the local and systemic inflammatory response. We found that hepcidin was highly expressed in the colon of two major idiopathic inflammatory bowel diseases : Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). Thanks to the generation of intestinal specific hepcidin KO mice (Hepc{delta}int), we found in a DSS-induced colitis model that hepcidin mediated the induction of key inflammatory cytokines and was protective against intestinal injury. In a model of LPS-induced acute inflammation, intestinal hepcidin expression was increased through a TLR4 dependent pathway andwas required for intestinal neutrophil infiltration and inflammation. Strikingly, intestinal hepcidin was absolutely required for the systemic production of key inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, CXCL1, TNF-alpha ...) as well as for the setting of the hypoferremia of inflammation. In a sepsis model, Hepc{delta}int mice were protected against LPS-induced mortality. Mechanistically, we showed that hepcidin was a direct neutrophil chemoattractant and a proinflammatory molecule in macrophages through a Myd88 dependent pathway. Altogether, we demonstrated that Hepcidin is a key new essential component of the immune system and may be a promising target in many inflammatory diseases.

Project description:Hepcidin, a peptide hormone that decreases intestinal iron absorption and macrophage iron release, is a potential drug target for patients with iron overload syndromes because its levels are inappropriately low in these individuals. Endogenous stimulants of Hepcidin transcription include bone morphogenic protein 6 (BMP) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) via effects on Smad4 or Stat3, respectively. We conducted a small-scale chemical screen in zebrafish embryos to identify small molecules that modulate hepcidin expression. We found that treatment with the isoflavone genistein from 28−52 hours post-fertilization in zebrafish embryos enhanced Hepcidin transcript levels as assessed by whole mount in situ hybridization and quantitative realtime RT-PCR. Genistein’s stimulatory effect was conserved in human hepatocytes: genistein treatment of HepG2 cells increased both Hepcidin transcript levels and Hepcidin promoter activity. We found that genistein’s effect on Hepcidin expression did not depend on estrogen receptor signaling or increased cellular iron uptake, but was impaired by mutation of either the BMP response elements or the Stat3 binding site in the Hepcidin promoter. RNA-sequencing of transcripts from genistein-treated hepatocytes indicated that genistein upregulated 68% of the transcripts that were upregulated by BMP6, however genistein raised the levels of several transcripts involved in Stat3 signaling that were not upregulated by BMP6. Chromatin-immunoprecipitation and ELISA experiments revealed that genistein enhanced Stat3 binding to the Hepcidin promoter and increased phosphorylation of Stat3 in HepG2 cells. CONCLUSION: Genistein is the first small molecule experimental drug that stimulates Hepcidin expression in vivo and in vitro. These experiments demonstrate the feasibility of identifying and characterizing small molecules that increase Hepcidin expression. Genistein and other candidate molecules may subsequently be developed into new therapies for iron overload syndromes.

Project description:Death receptor-mediated hepatocyte apoptosis is implicated in a wide range of liver diseases including viral hepatitis, alcoholic hepatitis, ischemia/reperfusion injury, fulminant hepatic failure, cholestatic liver injury and cancer. Deletion of NF-ĸB essential modulator in hepatocytes (NemoΔhepa) causes the spontaneous development of hepatocellular carcinoma preceded by steatohepatitis in mice and thus serves as an excellent model for the progression from chronic hepatitis to liver cancer. In the present study we aimed to dissect the death-receptor mediated pathways that contribute to liver injury in NemoΔhepa mice. Therefore, we generated NemoΔhepa/TRAIL-/- and NemoΔhepa/TNFR1-/- animals and analyzed the progression of liver injury. NemoΔhepa/TRAIL-/- displayed a similar phenotype to NemoΔhepa mice characteristic of high apoptosis, infiltration of immune cells, hepatocyte proliferation and steatohepatitis. These pathophysiological features were significantly ameliorated in NemoΔhepa/TNFR1-/- livers. Hepatocyte apoptosis was increased in NemoΔhepa and NemoΔhepa/TRAIL-/- mice while NemoΔhepa/TNFR1-/- animals showed reduced cell death concomitant with a strong reduction in pJNK levels. Cell cycle parameters were significantly less activated in NemoΔhepa/TNFR1-/- livers. Additionally, markers of liver fibrosis and indicators of tumour progression were significantly decreased in these animals. The present data demonstrate that the death receptor TNFR1 but not TRAIL is important in determining progression of liver injury in hepatocyte-specific Nemo knockout mice.
