Project description:BMP6 is an iron-sensing cytokine produced by liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs). The transcription factor NRF2 was proposed to induce Bmp6 expression in response to iron-triggered oxidative stress, and NRF2 knock-out mice were shown not capable of regulating Bmp6 in response to massive diet-imposed iron overload. However, LSEC Bmp6 expression levels in the hemochromatosis mouse model reflect hepatocytic, not endothelial iron content. Hence, it is not fully resolved how iron signals translate into alterations of Bmp6 mRNA levels. To further explore the mechanisms of Bmp6 regulation, we employed female mice aged 10-11 months that are hallmarked by hepatocytic, but not LSEC iron accumulation and decreased transferrin saturation, hinting at the absence of systemic iron overload. We found that LSECs of aged mice exhibit increased Bmp6 levels as compared to young controls, but do not show oxidative stress or a transcriptional signature characteristic of activated NFR2-mediated signaling in FACS-sorted LSECs. We further observed that primary murine LSECs derived from both wild-type and NRF2 knock-out mice induce Bmp6 in response to acute iron exposure. By analyzing RNA sequencing data of FACS-sorted LSECs from aged versus young mice, as well as upon acute injections of iron citrate in young mice, we identified ETS1 as a candidate transcription factor involved in Bmp6 regulation. By conducting siRNA-mediated knock-down and small-molecule treatments in primary LSECs, we show that Bmp6 transcription is regulated in an NRF2-independent manner via ETS1, which is activated downstream of p38 MAP kinase-mediated signaling. This knowledge expands the understanding of Bmp6 transcriptional control in both iron-triggered oxidative stress and under the conditions uncoupled to LSECs reactive oxygen species levels.

Project description:Homeostatic adaptation to systemic iron overload involves transcriptional induction of bone morphogenetic protein 6 (BMP6) in liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs). BMP6 is then secreted to activate signaling to the iron hormone hepcidin (Hamp) in neighboring hepatocytes. To explore the mechanism for iron sensing by LSECs, we generated TfrcTek-Cre mice with endothelial cell-specific ablation of transferrin receptor 1 (Tfr1). We also used wild type mice to characterize LSEC-specific molecular responses to iron by single cell transcriptomics. TfrcTek-Cre animals tend to have increased liver iron content compared to Tfrcfl/fl controls but do not exhibit blunted Bmp6 or Hamp mRNA expression. They respond to dietary iron challenges with Bmp6 and Hamp induction, yet sometimes to levels slightly lower relative to liver iron load. We noted that liver Bmp6 and Hamp mRNA levels significantly correlated with serum non-transferrin bound iron (NTBI) that emerged following dietary iron loading in both TfrcTek-Cre and Tfrcfl/fl mice. High dietary iron triggered more profound alterations in the LSEC transcriptome of Tfrcfl/fl mice compared to holo-transferrin injection. These culminated in robust induction of Bmp6 and other nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) target genes, as well as Myc target genes involved in ribosomal biogenesis and protein synthesis. Taken together, our data suggest that during systemic iron overload, LSECs internalize NTBI, which promotes oxidative stress and thereby transcriptionally induces Bmp6 via Nrf2. The contribution of Tfr1 and transferrin-bound iron to Bmp6 induction is minimal.

Project description:Environmental particle inhalation and persistent herpesvirus infection are omnipresent and associated with chronic lung diseases. Previously, we showed that pulmonary exposure to soot-like carbonaceous nanoparticles (CNP) or fibre-shaped engineered double-walled carbon nanotubes (DWCNT) induced an increase of lytic virus protein expression in latently murine gammaherpesvirus 68 (MHV-68) infected mouse lungs, with a similar pattern as acute infection suggesting virus reactivation. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying herpesvirus reactivation as well as herpesvirus reactivation associated disease exacerbation caused by particle exposure remain unclear. Here, we investigated the effects of environmental relevant repeated particle exposure and herpesvirus reactivation mechanistically, and therapeutically. In the MHV-68 mouse model, we identified elevated lung inflammation and emphysema-like injury after repetitive CNP exposure. We further uncovered that CNP reactivated latent herpesvirus mainly in CD11b+ macrophages. Mechanistically, ERK1/2, JNK and p38 MAPK were rapidly activated after CNP and DWCNT exposure in persistently MHV-68 infected bone marrow-derived macrophages, followed by upregulation of viral gene expression and increased viral titer but without generating a pro-inflammatory transcriptional signature. Pharmacological inhibition of p38 activation abrogated CNP but not DWCNT triggered virus reactivation. In vivo, p38 inhibitor pretreatment of latently infected mice also attenuated CNP exposure induced MHV-68 reactivation. Our findings suggest that particle pollution is an environmental challenge to trigger herpesvirus reactivation and related chronic lung disease by activating latent herpesvirus via p38 MAPK dependent signalling. Pharmacological p38 inhibition might serve as a protective target to alleviate particle exposure related chronic lung disease exacerbations.

Project description:Liver sinusoidal endothelium (LSEC) is a prime example for organ-specific microvascular differentiation and functions. Disease-associated capillarization of LSEC in vivo and dedifferentiation of LSEC in vitro indicate the importance of the hepatic microenvironment. To identify the LSEC-specific molecular differentiation program in the rat, we used a two-sided gene expression profiling approach comparing LSEC freshly isolated ex vivo with both lung microvascular endothelial cells (LMEC) and with LSEC cultured for 42h. The LSEC signature consisted of 48 genes both down-regulated in LMEC and in LSEC upon culture (FC>7 in at least one comparison); qRT-PCR confirmation of these genes included numerous family members and signalling pathway-associated molecules. The LSEC differentiation program comprised distinct sets of growth (wnt2, Fzd4, 5, 9, wls, VEGFR1, 2, 3, Nrp2) and transcription factors (Gata4, Lmo3, Tcfec, Maf) as well as endocytosis-related (Stabilin-1/2, Lyve1 and Ehd3) and cytoskeleton-associated molecules (Rnd3/RhoE). Specific gene induction in cultured LSEC versus freshly isolated LSEC as well as LMEC (Esm-1, Aatf) and up-regulation of gene expression to LMEC levels (CXCR4, Apelin) confirmed true transdifferentiation of LSEC in vitro. In addition, our analysis identified a novel 26 kDa single-pass transmembrane protein, liver endothelial differentiation-associated protein (Leda)-1, that was selectively expressed in all liver endothelial cells and preferentially localized to the abluminal cell surface. Upon forced over-expression in MDCK cells, Leda-1 was sorted baso-laterally to E-cadherin-positive adherens junctions suggesting functional involvement in cell adhesion and polarity. Conclusion: Comparative microvascular analysis in rat identified a hepatic microenvironment-dependent LSEC-specific differentiation program including the novel junctional molecule Leda-1. Highly pure liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSEC) and lung microvascular endothelial cells (LMEC) were isolated by enzymatic digestion, density gradient centrifugation and MACS sorting and subjected to RNA extraction and affymetrix hybridization without any culturing step (LSEC_0h, LMEC_0h). LSEC were also plated on collagen coated dishes and RNA extraction and Affymetrix hybridization was carried out after 2h and 42h in culture (LSEC_2h, LSEC_42h).

Project description:Carotid atherosclerosis (CAS) is a major contributor to ischemic stroke, with vascular calcification driving disease progression. However, the molecular mechanisms driving vascular calcification in CAS remain unelucidated. Previous studies have confirmed that bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) play essential roles in calcification; however, the regulatory mechanisms of BMP6 signaling in vascular calcification remain unclear. This study aimed to investigate the role of BMP6 in vascular calcification in CAS and the underlying mechanisms. A subset of endothelial cells (ECs) with high BMP6 expression, which interacted with specific vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) via the BMP signaling pathway, was identified using single-cell RNA sequencing of human CAS plaque samples. In vitro experiments demonstrated BMP6-induced osteogenic differentiation of VSMCs. Moreover, BMP6 activated the p-SMAD1/5/8 signaling pathway by binding to the ACVR1–BMPR2 receptor complex, and pharmacological inhibition of this pathway attenuated osteogenic differentiation. Experimental results from endothelium-specific BMP6 knockout (BMP6ECKOApoE-/-) and overexpression (AAV-Cdh5-BMP6) mice confirmed that BMP6 exacerbated vascular calcification, whereas its knockdown reduced calcific lesions. Additionally, disturbed flow conditions upregulated BMP6 expression by suppressing Krüppel-like factor 4 and linking hemodynamic forces to BMP6-mediated calcification. These findings suggest that BMP6 is a key regulator of vascular calcification in CAS, driven by EC–VSMC interactions and hemodynamic stress

Project description:We have established that BMP6 is an important endogenous regulator of human osteoblast differentiation. Our preliminary experiment showed that 8 hour BMP6 treatment induced early osteoblast markers in hMSC. In this study, we used microarrays to profile the global gene expression program in hMSC induced by BMP6 treatment and further identify the early osteogenic responses to BMP6 stimulation. Experiment Overall Design: The dataset contains a total of 4 gene chip measurements from duplicate experiments each with paired measurements of human MSC with or without 8 hours BMP6 treatment.
