Project description:Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is a rare neurological autoimmune disease caused autoantibodies targeting the astrocytic water channel aquaporin-4 (AQP4). Binding to AQP4 initiates the activation of innate immune components, especially the complement system. Both in-vivo and in-vitro models have been developed to study the molecular pathophysiology of NMOSD. The aim of our study was to characterize the molecular response of four human cell lines (AQP4-ECFP expressing U-87MG glioblastoma cells, U-87MG expressing only ECFP, HEK293 cells expressing AQP4-EmGFP and human primary astrocytes) to a treatment with AQP4 antibody E5415A and human complement. Complement-dependent cytotoxicity was induced by this treatment in AQP4-expressing cells by the classical complement pathway. Transcriptomic profiles of the in-vitro U-87MG-AQP4-ECFP model and an in-vivo rat model shared a proinflammatory shift towards NF-κB and interleukin-6 pathways. These findings were confirmed on the mRNA and protein levels and treatment with serum samples from AQP4 antibody seropositive NMOSD patients resulted in a similar response. Additionally, NF-κB upregulation was shown by immunohistochemistry in medulla oblongata lesions of NMOSD patients. In conclusion, interleukin-6 and NF-κB pathways play a key role in inflammation caused by the activation of the classical complement pathway in a human cellular model of NMOSD using U-87MG-AQP4-ECFP cells.

Project description:Non-consensus binding sites of transcription factors are often observed within the promoters and enhancers of various genes; however, their effect on transcriptional strength is unclear. Within the promoters and enhancers of NF-κB-responsive genes, we identified clusters of non- consensus κB DNA sites, many exhibiting low affinity for NF-κB in vitro. Deletion of these sites demonstrated their collective critical role in transcription. We explored how these “weak” κB sites exert their influence, especially given the typically low nuclear concentration of NF-κB. Using proteomics approaches, we identified additional nuclear factors, including other DNA-binding TFs, that could interact with κB site-bound NF-κB RelA without their direct interaction to DNA. ChIP- seq and RNA-seq analyses suggest that these accessory TFs, referred to as the TF-cofactors of NF-κB, facilitate dynamic recruitment of NF-κB to the clustered κB sites. Overall, the occupancy of NF-κB at promoters and enhancers appears to be defined by a collective contribution from all κB sites, both weak and strong, in association with specific cofactors. This congregation of multiple factors within dynamic transcriptional complexes is likely a common feature of transcriptional programs.

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of human control and Néstor-Guillermo Progeria Syndrome (NGPS) fibroblasts and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). Somatic cell reprogramming involves rejuvenation of adult cells and relies on the ability to erase age-associated molecular marks. Accordingly, reprogramming efficiency declines with ageing, and age-associated features such as genetic instability, cell senescence or telomere shortening negatively affect this process. However, the regulatory mechanisms that constitute age-associated barriers for cell reprogramming remain largely unknown. Here, by using cells from patients with premature ageing, we demonstrate that NF-κB activation is a critical barrier for the generation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) in ageing. We show that NF-κB repression occurs during cell reprogramming towards a pluripotent state. Conversely, ageing-associated NF-κB hyperactivation impairs generation of iPSCs by eliciting reprogramming repressors DOT1L and YY1, reinforcing cell senescence signals and down-regulating pluripotency genes. We also show that genetic and pharmacological NF-κB inhibitory strategies significantly increase the reprogramming efficiency of fibroblasts from Néstor-Guillermo Progeria Syndrome (NGPS) and Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome (HGPS) patients, as well as from normal aged donors. Finally, we demonstrate that DOT1L inhibition in vivo ameliorates the accelerated ageing phenotype and extends lifespan in a progeroid animal model. Collectively, our results provide evidence for a novel role of NF-κB in the control of cell fate transitions and reinforce the interest of studying age-associated molecular impairments to implement cell reprogramming methodologies, and to identify new targets of rejuvenation strategies. Control and NGPS fibroblasts were reprogrammed. RNA was extracted and transcriptional profiling was obtained with GeneChip Human Exon 1.0 ST Arrays.

Project description:The transcription factor NF-κB is the master regulator of the immune response but also regulates gene expression to influences cell survival, proliferation and differentiation. Inducible site-specific phosphorylation of NF-κB is critical for its activity and appears to be important in gene specific transcriptional control. Promyelocytic Leukemia (PML) is a nuclear protein that forms sub-nuclear structures termed nuclear bodies associated with transcriptionally active genomic regions. We demonstrate that PML promotes NF-κB- induced transcriptional responses by promoting the phosphorylation of NF-κB p65 at key regulatory sites. Our findings demonstrate a critical role for PML in promoting NF-κB transcriptional activity through signal induced post-translational modifications.

Project description:NF-κB has an essential role in innate immune response and inflammation and is involved in cancer development and progression. We apply the SEC-PCP-SILAC method incorporating metabolic labeling, size exclusion chromatography and protein correlation profiling to construct a complex network of interactome rearrangement in response to NF-κB modulation in breast cancer cells. Our interaction network represents a complex insight into the dynamics of MCF-7 protein interactome associated with NF-κB pathway. Our dataset could serve as a basis for future studies characterizing role of NF-κB in breast cancer cellular pathways. This PRIDE project includes results from SILAC labeled and label-free replicates from the SEC-PCP-SILAC analysis of protein complexes in MCF-7 cells with inhibited and uninhibited NF-κB pathway, results from the immunoprecipitation experiment aimed at interaction partners of NF-κB factor RELA, analysis of total proteome after NF-κB inhibition, and results from SEC fractionation of untreated and unlabeled MCF-7 cells.

Project description:Background: The most aggressive subtype of breast cancer, triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), has a worse prognosis and a higher probability of relapse since there is a narrow range of treatment options. Identifying and testing potential therapeutic targets for the treatment of TNBC is of high priority. Methods: Using a transcriptional signature of triple-negative breast cancer collected from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO), CMap was utilized to reposition compounds for the treatment of TNBC. CCK8 and colony formation experiments were performed to detect the effect of the candidate drug on the proliferation of TNBC cells, while flow cytometry was used to detect cell apoptosis. Meanwhile, transwell assay was implemented to detect cell metastasis change caused by the candidate drug. Moreover, the proteomic approach was presently ongoing to evaluate the underlying mechanism of the candidate drug in TNBC. Furthermore, drug affinity responsive target stability (DARTS) coupled with LC-MS/MS was carried out to explore the potential drug target candidate in TNBC cells. Results: We found that the most widely used medication, eugenol, reduced the growth and metastasis of TNBC cells. According to the underlying mechanism revealed by proteomics, eugenol could inhibit TNBC cell proliferation via the NOD1-NF-κB signaling pathway. DARTS experiment further revealed that eugenol may bind to NF-κB in TNBC cells. Concludes: Our findings pointed out that eugenol was a potential candidate drug for the treatment of TNBC.
