Project description:Shock wave treatment (SWT) is a non-invasive therapy applied in musculoskeletal and urological disorders, as well as in chronic wound regeneration. As the use of medical SWT broadens, it is important to better understand the molecular mechanisms underlying its success. Here, we identified P2X4 and P2Y2 purinergic receptors to be primarily expressed in C3H/10T1/2 mouse mesenchymal stromal cells and investigated their role in the initiation of the signaling events following SWT using single- and double-receptor knock-out (KO) cell lines. We show that SWT induced the expression of c-Jun and c-Fos within 30 min after stimulation and that the SWT-induced Erk1/2 pathway activation and immediate early gene expression were decreased in P2Y2-, P2X4- and P2Y2/P2X4-deficient cells. Importantly, SWT did not promote proliferation in P2Y2/P2X4-deficient cells, while loss of either one of the receptors significantly reduced the proliferative effect, indicating a cumulative effect of their loss. Finally, our data suggests a more prominent role of the P2Y2 receptor in SWT-induced cellular effects, since primarily its loss contributed to the observed changes. With these findings, we further the understanding of the molecular mechanisms of SWT and propose that the varying expression of purinergic receptors in tissues should be considered when establishing treatment protocols.

Project description:Purinergic P2 receptors are critical regulators of several functions within the vascular system, including platelet aggregation, vascular inflammation and vascular tone. A role for ATP release and P2Y receptors in angiogenesis has been implicated, however, the involvement of purinergic signalling in endothelial sprouting and vascular growth remains poorly understood. Here, we demonstrate that blood vessel growth is controlled by P2Y2 receptors. Inhibition of P2Y2 using a selective antagonist or modulation of P2Y2 receptor expression significantly influenced sprouting and vascular tube formation. Mechanistically, overexpression of P2Y2 in endothelial cells resulted in increased expression of the pro-angiogenic molecules CXCR4, CD34 and angiopoietin-2, while expression of Tie2 and VEGFR-2 decreased. Interestingly, elevated P2Y2 expression caused constitutive phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and VEGFR-2. However, stimulation of cells with the P2Y2 agonist UTP did not influence sprouting unless P2Y2 was constitutively expressed, indicating that enhanced receptor expression, and not activation, is the primary trigger for angiogenesis. Our data suggest that P2Y2 receptors have an essential function in angiogenesis through cross-talk of P2Y2 and VEGFR-2 and that P2Y2 may represent a therapeutic target to regulate blood vessel growth.

Project description:Trigeminal ganglion (TG) is the first station of sensory pathways in the orofacial region. The TG neurons communicate with satellite glial cells (SGCs), macrophages and other cells forming a functional unit that is responsible for processing of orofacial sensory information. Purinergic signaling, one of the most widespread autocrine and paracrine pathways, plays a crucial role in intercellular communication. The multidirectional action of purinergic signaling in different cell types contributes to the neuromodulation and orofacial sensation. To fully understand the purinergic signaling in these processes, it is essential to determine the shared and unique expression patterns of genes associated with purinergic signaling in different cell types. Here, we performed single-cell RNA sequencing of 22,969 cells isolated from normal mouse TGs. We identified 18 distinct cell populations, including 6 neuron subpopulations, 3 glial subpopulations, 7 immune cell subpopulations, fibroblasts, and endothelial cells. We also revealed the transcriptional features of genes associated with purinergic signaling, including purinergic receptors, extracellular adenosine triphosphate (eATP) release channels, eATP metabolism-associated enzymes, and eATP transporters) in each cell type. Our results have important implications for understanding and predicting the cell type-specific roles of the purinergic signaling in orofacial signal processing in the trigeminal primary sensory system.

Project description:Male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats (350 - 400 g) were anaesthetized with 3% isoflurane for 3 min in a closed induction chamber. A helium driven shock tube was used at various shock wave pressures (20 - 30 psi). The exposure system has been developed so that the animals are exposed head only to a ?primary blast? that being a single pulse shock wave with only minimal concussive and whiplash effects. After exposure, rats were closely observed for either 1 day or 7 days before being sacrificed. At the end of the observation period, rat whiskers were quickly pulled and placed in a 1.5 ml micro centrifuge tube containing 0.5 ml of RNAlater. Samples were then stored at -80C until further analysis.

Project description:Gap junctions and purinergic P2 receptors (P2Rs) can be regarded as belonging to a common functional unit, given that they are involved in the transmission of calcium signals between cells. We have previously shown that deletion of the Gja1 gene alters expression levels of numerous genes encoding proteins with diverse functions, including purinergic, P2Rs, and have found that genes synergistically or antagonistically expressed in wildtype tissues are more prone to be similarly or oppositely regulated in Cx43-nulls. We have now explored the use of coordination analysis of gene expression as a strategy to identify interlinked genes encoding functionally related proteins and used pull-downs to evaluate their interlinkage. Our findings indicate that, in brain and in cultured astrocytes, several of these co-expressed genes encode proteins that are components of P2R signal transduction pathways and/or directly interact with these receptors, including the gap junction protein connexin43 (Cx43) and connexin45 (Cx45), as well as pannexins. It is proposed that coordination analysis of gene expression may provide a novel unbiased strategy for the identification of proteins belonging to supramolecular complexes.

Project description:Across the cell cycle, mitochondrial dynamics are regulated by a cycling wave of actin polymerization/depolymerization. In metaphase, this wave induces the assembly of actin comet tails on mitochondria that propel these organelles to drive spatial mixing,resulting in their equitable inheritance by daughter cells. In contrast, during interphasethe cycling actin wave promotes localized mitochondrial fission. Here, we identify the F-actin nucleator/elongator FMNL1 as a positive regulator of the wave. Depletion of FMNL1 ablates the actin wave, allowing us to assess the functional consequences in interphase cells. FMNL1-depleted cells exhibit decreased mitochondrial polarization, decreased mitochondrial oxygen consumption, and increased production of reactive oxygen species. Accompanying these changes is a loss of hetero-fusion of wave-fragmented mitochondria. Thus we propose that the interphase actin wave maintains mitochondrial homeostasis by promoting mitochondrial content mixing. Finally, we investigated the mechanistic basis for the observation that the wave drives mitochondrial motility in metaphase but mitochondrial fission in interphase. Our data indicate that when the force of actin polymerization is resisted by mitochondrial tethering to microtubules, fission results. In striking contrast, upon microtubule depolymerization actin wave-enveloped mitochondria in interphase cells display comet tail motility characteristic of metaphase cells, which are devoid of microtubule-mitochondria interactions, suggesting that microtubule tethering inhibits comet tail-driven motility.

Project description:Heat shock response (HSR) is critical for survival of organisms undergoing proteotoxic stress. Heat shock factor 1 (HSF1) is widely believed to be the master regulator of this response. Here, we examined the kinetics of the transcriptional response and HSF1 binding changes genome-wide after heat shock (HS) with high sensitivity and high spatial and temporal resolution using PRO-seq and ChIP-seq assays respectively in wild type and in hsf1-deletion mouse embryonic fibroblasts. The transcriptional response is rapid, dynamic, and extensive with activation of several hundred genes and repression of several thousands of genes. Although HSF1 is critically required for classical inducible Heat Shock Protein (HSP) genes, it is not required for the majority of gene activation. HSF1 acts mechanistically to promote RNA polymerase II (Pol II) release from the promoter-proximal pause, while recruitment and initiation of Pol II are predominantly HSF1-independent. Surprisingly, a major class of cytoskeleton genes is immediately (within 2.5 minutes) and transiently activated in an HSF1-independent manner. A second wave of regulation is characterized by robust activation or repression of new sets of genes. The broad repression of thousands of genes, a quarter of which are repressed immediately upon HS and the rest are repressed in the second wave of regulation, is mediated at the level of decreasing Pol II pause release and not at prior steps of Pol II recruitment or initiation. Notably, heat shock does not induce transcription of some previously defined HSP genes, and HSF2 â a homolog of HSF1 â does not compensate for the lack of HSF1. Together, these findings indicate that mammalian cells cope with stress by rapidly inducing pervasive and dramatic changes in transcription that are largely modulated at the step of pause release, and only a fraction of this regulation is HSF1-dependent.
