E. coli adhérentes et invasives et pathogénèse de la maladie de Crohn : rôle du facteur hypoxique HIF-1 / Non disponibleMimouna, Sanda 29 October 2013 (has links)
La maladie de Crohn (MC) est une maladie inflammatoire chronique intestinale (MICI). Son incidence et sa prévalence ont augmenté en Europe au cours des dix dernières années (150 pour 100000 habitants) constituant ainsi un problème de santé majeur. L’inflammation chronique dans la MC favorise la mise en place d’une angiogenèse pathophysiologique. Inflammation et angiogenèse sont deux réponses cellulaires suspectées dans la survenue des cancers coliques associés au MICI. Même si les facteurs favorisant la mise en place de la MC restent non élucidés, la contribution des bactéries exogènes est fortement suspectée. Parmi ces bactéries, les E.coli adhérentes et invasives (AIEC), isolées à partir de la muqueuse iléale de patients porteurs de la MC, sont un bon candidat. Les objectifs de mon projet de thèse étaient de caractériser les mécanismes moléculaires induits par les AIEC et impliqués dans la mise en place des réponses pro inflammatoire et pro angiogénique des cellules intestinales épithéliales. Le facteur de transcription hypoxique (HIF-1) est au cœur de l’immunité innée et de l’angiogenèse. J’ai émis l’hypothèse que les AIEC pouvaient moduler le niveau d’expression de HIF-1α et ainsi contrôler les réponses pro inflammatoire et pro angiogénique. Dans mon premier article, j’ai montré que HIF-1α est maximalement exprimé au niveau de l’épithélium iléal des patients porteurs de la MC. Ensuite, j’ai montré sur un modèle murin compétent pour l’infection par les AIEC, les souris CEABAC10, que les bactéries induisent l’augmentation du niveau protéique de HIF-1 α ainsi que l’activation de la voie de signalisation du VEGF, le facteur angiogénique le plus puissant. / Non communiqué.

FundaÃÃo Cearense de Apoio ao Desenvolvimento Cientifico e TecnolÃgico / IntroduÃÃo: HipÃxia constitui em uma caracterÃstica comum de tumores sÃlidos, como em cÃnceres de cabeÃa e pescoÃo, e nessas condiÃÃes, uma via de sinalizaÃÃo envolvendo um regulador de resposta a oxigÃnio, chamado de Fator Induzido por HipÃxia-1 (HIF-1) tem-se destacado, na tentativa de permitir uma melhor compreensÃo sobre a biologia tumoral do cÃncer. Objetivo: Investigar o papel do HIF-1 em carcinoma epidermÃide oral (CEO) e em lesÃes potencialmente malignas que apresentam displasia epitelial oral (DEO). MÃtodos: Estudo observacional, analÃtico e transversal, atravÃs do diagnÃstico e anÃlise imuno-molecular de lesÃes malignas e potencialmente malignas. Foram incluÃdos 10 casos biopsiados com diagnÃstico histopatolÃgico de CEO e 10 casos de DEO. Utilizou-se a tÃcnica imunohistoquÃmica da Estreptoavitina-Biotina com o anticorpo HIF-1 (marca Abcam, diluiÃÃo 1:200, 60 minutos, recuperaÃÃo antigÃnica com citrato pH6 Pascal), analisando 05 campos de cada caso no aumento de 400X. O nÃmero de cÃlulas em cada um dos cinco campos foi somado e considerou-se como unidade amostral o percentual de cÃlulas imuno-positivas para HIF-1α conforme marcaÃÃo nuclear e citoplasmÃtica, bem como intensidade desta Ãltima. Os resultados foram obtidos e comparados entre grupos por meio dos testes t de Student e ANOVA multifatorial, seguido do pÃs-teste de Bonferroni, tomando como base os nÃveis de significÃncia de 5%. Resultados: Foi observado uma expressÃo citoplasmÃtica de HIF-1α em 58.4Â6.0% das cÃlulas epiteliais das DEO e em 77.8Â3.9% das cÃlulas dos CEO, com diferenÃa significante (p=0.022). O percentual de cÃlulas positivas para HIF-1α com marcaÃÃo nuclear tambÃm mostrou diferenÃa significante (p=0.021) entre DEO (0.2Â0.1%) e CEO (2.4Â0.8). NÃo houve diferenÃa significante entre o percentual de cÃlulas com imunomarcaÃÃo positiva fraca em citoplasma entre DEO e CEO (p=0.337), no entanto, houve aumento significante no percentual de cÃlulas com marcaÃÃo citoplasmÃtica moderada (p=0.029) e forte (p=0.031) entre DEO e CEO. ConclusÃo: Foi observada uma aumento da expressÃo, nuclear e citoplasmÃtica, de HIF-1α de DEO para CEO, sugerindo seu envolvimento em estÃgios iniciais da carcinogÃnese oral. RelevÃncia ClÃnica: Buscar o entendimento das complexas vias de sinalizaÃÃo, bem como do microambiente tumoral, e diferentes comportamentos biolÃgicos no cÃncer oral. / Introduction: Hypoxia is a common feature in solid tumors, such as head and neck cancers, and in these conditions a signaling pathway involving a response regulator oxygen, called hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) we have highlighted in an attempt to provide a better understanding of tumor biology of cancer. Objective: To investigate the role of HIF-1 in oral squamous cell carcinoma and premalignant lesions presenting oral epithelial dysplasia. Methods: Observational, analytical and cross through the diagnosis and immuno-molecular analysis of malignant and premalignant lesions. 10 biopsied cases with histopathological diagnosis of the CEO and DEO 10 cases were included. It was used the technique of immunohistochemistry Estreptoavitina-Biotin with HIF-1 antibody (Abcam mark, 1:200 dilution, 60 min pH6 citrate antigen retrieval Pascal) analysis of 05 fields each case at 400X magnification. The number of cells in each of five fields was added and the sample was considered as a unit the percentage of positive cells immuno-HIF-1α nuclear and cytoplasmic as well as intensity thereof. The results were obtained and compared between groups by the Student and multifactor ANOVA followed by Bonferroni post-test t test, based on the significance levels of 5%. Results: Cytoplasmic expression of HIF-1α was observed in 58.4 Â 6.0% of the epithelial cells of the DEO and 77.8 Â 3.9% of the cells of the CEO, with a significant difference (p = 0.022). The percentage of cells positive for HIF-1α nuclear staining also showed significant difference (p = 0.021) between DEO (0.2 Â 0.1%) and CEO (2.4 Â 0.8). There was no significant difference between the percentage of cells with weak positive immunostaining in the cytoplasm between DEO and CEO (p = 0.337), however, a significant increase in the percentage of cells with moderate cytoplasm staining (p = 0.029) and strong (p = 0.031) between DEO and CEO. Conclusion: One increasing the expression, nuclear and cytoplasmic HIF-1α DEO to CEO was observed, suggesting their involvement in the early stages of oral carcinogenesis. Clinical Relevance: Seek understanding of the complex signaling pathways, as well as the tumor microenvironment, and different biological behaviors in oral cancer.

Previous issue date: 2013 / Resumo: A adaptação das células cancerosas ao microambiente é o ponto central que leva ao fenótipo invasivo e metastático, e é garantida principalmente através do controle preciso da expressão gênica. A resposta às necessidades energéticas e biossintéticas e principalmente à disponibilidade de oxigênio intracelular, por exemplo, é em grande parte mediada pelo fator de transcrição induzido por hipóxia 1 (HIF-1). HIF-1 é um heterodímero composto pelas subunidades ? e ?, que respondem a sequência consenso (5'-RCGTG-3') e ativam a transcrição de mais de 100 genes envolvidos em diversos aspectos cruciais da biologia tumoral, incluindo angiogênese, metabolismo de glicose, diferenciação celular, apoptose e resistência a radio e quimioterapias. São conhecidas três isoformas da subunidade ? (1 a 3) e todas se heterodimerizam com a subunidade ?. No geral, HIFs são constituídas de diferentes domínios funcionais, como de ligação ao DNA, de heterodimerização, transativação e degradação. Atualmente, pouco se sabe sobre os mecanismos estruturais e funcionais dos domínios da HIF- 1, deste modo este trabalho objetivou o estudo estrutural destes domínios. Os domínios bHLH, Pas-1 e Pac de HIF-1? e HIF-? em diferentes combinações entre si e o domínio Pac da HIF-3? foram clonados, as proteínas foram expressas em sistema bacteriano e purificadas por diferentes técnicas cromatográficas. Diversas destas construções se mostraram insolúveis ou suscetíveis a degradação, enquanto outras foram purificadas com sucesso. As construções Pac, um exemplo de sucesso na produção, foram submetidas a ensaios de anisotropia de fluorescência e ressonância magnética nuclear, o que nos permitiu a caracterização dos perfis de interação entre as várias combinações de heterodimerização. Neste contexto, os resultados mostram que o equilíbrio dinâmico da interação entre Pac-1? com a subunidade -1? é alcançado imediatamente, enquanto que para a interação entre Pac-3? e -1?, são necessários pelo menos 30 horas de incubação. O mesmo pode ser extraído da caracterização da interação direta entre Pac-1? e Pac-3?. Nos experimentos de RMN, foi possível identificar a região de interação entre as subunidades -1? e -3? com a subunidade ?, separadamente. Ambas as subunidades ? interagem com a Pac-1? na região das fitas-beta 1 e 5 e no loop entre as fitas 4 e 5. Em conjunto, estes resultados impactam no mecanismo de antagonização de HIF-3? na atividade transcricional de HIF-1?. Houve ainda a formação de monocristais da subunidade Pac-3?, que foram submetidos a experimentos preliminares de difração de raios X, que apesar de resultar em dados anisotrópicos e insuficientes para resolução estrutural, permitiram a caracterização dos parâmetros cristalinos, incluindo a presença de um alto conteúdo de solvente. Adicionalmente, são também apresentados os resultados obtidos visando a expressão e cristalização das Prolilhidroxilases (PHDs) isoformas 1 a 4, durante estágio de seis meses no Structural Genomics Consortium (SGC), da Universidade de Oxford, na Inglaterra. Foram expressas de maneira solúvel e purificadas, diversas construções das isoformas 1 e 3 das PHDs humanas. Cristais foram obtidos, porém estes foram determinados como sendo de compostos inorgânicos presentes na condição de cristalização. Como resultado final, está sendo estabelecida uma colaboração entre o nosso grupo e o SGC para que os estudos estruturais com PHDs se estendam e sejam realizados em nosso laboratório aqui no Brasil / Abstract: The adaptation process of cancer cells to the microenvironment is the central point leading to the invasive and metastatic phenotypes, and is guaranteed mainly through the precise control of gene expression. The cell response to the energetic and biosynthetic needs and especially to the availability of intracellular oxygen is mediated by the hypoxia inducible transcription factor 1, or HIF-1. HIF-1 functions as a heterodimer composed by subunits ? and ?, binding to responsive elements with the consensus sequence 5'-RCGTG-3 ', thus activating the transcription of more than 100 genes involved in many crucial aspects of tumor biology, including angiogenesis, metabolism glucose, cell differentiation, apoptosis, and resistance to radiotherapy and chemotherapy. There are three known isoforms of the ? subunit (1, 2 and 3) and all heterodimerize with the ? subunit. HIFs are composed of different functional domains, such as the DNA binding domain, the heterodimerization, transactivation and the oxygen-dependent degradation domains. Currently, little is known about the mechanisms of structural and functional domains of HIF-1, thus this work was to study these structural domains. The domain (bHLH, Pas-1 and Pac) of HIF-1? and HIF-? in different combinations with each other and Pac domain of HIF-3? were cloned, the proteins were expressed in bacterial system and purified by various chromatographic techniques. Several of these constructs proved insoluble or susceptible to degradation, while others were purified successfully. The constructs Pac, an example of success in production, were tested for fluorescence anisotropy and nuclear magnetic resonance, which allowed us to characterize the profiles of the interaction between the various combinations of heterodimers. In this context, the results show that the dynamic equilibrium of the interaction between the Pac-1? and -1? subunits is achieved immediately, whereas for the interaction between Pac-3? and -1?, it takes at least 30 hours of incubation. The same can be observed from the characterization of direct interaction between Pac-1? and -3?. From the NMR experiments, it was possible to identify the region of interaction between the subunits -1? and -3? with the -1? subunit. Both ? subunits interact with Pac-1? via betastrands 1 and 5 and the loop between the strands 4 and 5. Overall, these results impact in the mechanism of HIF-3? antagonizing the transcriptional activity of HIF-1?. We also obtained single crystals for Pac-3? subunit, which were subjected to preliminary experiments of X-ray diffraction. Although resulting in anisotropic, insufficient data for and structural resolution, it has allowed the characterization of crystalline parameters, including the presence of a high solvent content. Additionally, we also present the results targeting the expression and crystallization of Prolyl-hydroxylases (PHDs) human isoforms 1-4, during the six-month period at the Structural Genomics Consortium (SGC), the University of Oxford in England. Several construct from of isoforms 1 and 3 were successfully expressed and purified in the soluble form. Likewise, crystals were obtained, but these were determined to be composed by inorganic compounds present in the crystallization conditions. At the end, a collaboration was established between our and the SGC group for the structural studies with the PHDs to extend and carry out the experiments in our lab here in Brazil / Mestrado / Clinica Medica / Mestra em Clínica Médica

Exploring the Independent and Combined Effects of Persistent Organic Pollutants and Hypoxia on Human Adipocyte FunctionsMyre, Maxine January 2014 (has links)
Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) and adipose tissue hypoxia have been shown to independently affect adipocyte functions. The goals of this study were to (1) determine the effect of PCB-77, PCB-153, and DDE on the differentiation of human preadipocytes, and (2) investigate the cross-talk between PCB-77 and hypoxia in differentiated human adipocytes. First, human preadipocytes were exposed to PCB-77, PCB-153, or DDE during the entire 14-day differentiation period. We found no effect of low POP levels on lipid accumulation. Second, differentiated human adipocytes were exposed to a combination of PCB-77 and hypoxia. We demonstrated gene-specific cross-talk between PCB-77 and hypoxia, showing an additive effect of PCB-77 on VEGF, MCP-1, and adiponectin, as well as an inhibition of PCB-77-induced expression of CYP1A1 by hypoxia. This work has expanded our understanding of the role of POPs and hypoxia in differentiated human adipocytes.

Hypoxia Inducible Factors in Alcoholic Liver Disease: A DissertationNath, Bharath D. 09 September 2009 (has links)
Chronic intake of alcohol can result in a range of pathology in the liver. Whilst the earliest changes observed with chronic ethanol, including the accumulation of lipid, or steatosis, are readily reversible upon cessation of alcohol consumption, longer exposure to ethanol may achieve more complex disease states including steatohepatitis, fibrosis, and cirrhosis that can cause irreversible damage and progress to fulminant hepatic failure. A key concept in the pathogenesis of alcoholic liver disease is that chronic ethanol primes the liver to increased injury through an interplay between hepatocytes and non-parenchymal cells, chiefly immune cells, of the liver. These relationships between hepatocytes and non-parenchymal cell types in alcoholic liver disease are reviewed in Chapter 1A.
The Hypoxia Inducible Factors are a set of transcription factors that classically have been described as affecting a homeostatic response to conditions of low oxygen tension. Alcoholic liver disease is marked by increased hepatic metabolic demands, and some evidence exists for increased hepatic tissue hypoxia and upregulation of hypoxia-inducible factor mRNA with chronic alcohol. However, the biological significance of these findings is unknown. In Chapter 1B, we review the literature on recent investigations on the role of hypoxia inducible factors in a broad array of liver diseases, seeking to find common themes of biological function.
In subsequent chapters, we investigate the hypothesis that a member of the hypoxia inducible- factor family, HIF1α, has a role in the pathogenesis of alcoholic liver disease. In Chapter 2, we establish a mouse model of alcoholic liver disease and report data confirming HIF1α activation with chronic ethanol. We demonstrate that HIF1α protein, mRNA, and DNA binding activity is upregulated in ethanol-fed mice versus pair-fed mice, and that some upregulation of HIF2α protein is observable as well. In Chapter 3, we utilize a mouse model of hepatocyte-specific HIF1α activation and demonstrate that such mice have exacerbated liver injury, including greater triglyceride accumulation than control mice. Using cre-lox technology, we introduce a degradation resistant mutant of HIF1α in hepatocytes, and after four weeks of ethanol feeding, we demonstrate that mice with the HIF1α transgene have increased liver-weight to body weight ratio and higher hepatic triglyceride levels. Additionally, several HIF1α target genes are upregulated. In Chapter 4, we examine the relationship between HIF1α activation and hepatic lipid accumulation using a recently published in vitro system, in which lipid accumulation was observed after treating Huh7 cells with the chemokine Monocyte Chemoattractant Protein-1 (MCP-1). We report that MCP-1 treatment induces HIF1α nuclear protein accumulation, that HIF1α overexpression in Huh7 cells induces lipid accumulation, and finally, that HIF1α siRNA prevents MCP-1 induced lipid accumulation. In Chapter 5, we use mouse models to investigate the hypothesis that suppression of HIF1α in hepatocytes or cells of the myeloid lineage may have differing effects on the pathogenesis of alcoholic liver disease. We find that ethanol-fed mice expressing a hepatocyte-specific HIF1α deletion mutant exhibit less elevation in liver-weight body ratio and diminished hepatic triglycerides versus wild-type mice; furthermore, we find that challenging these mice with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) results in less liver enzyme elevation and inflammatory cytokine secretion than in wild-type mice. In Chapter 6, we offer a final summary of our findings and some directions for future work.

miR‐17/20 Controls Prolyl Hydroxylase 2 (PHD2)/Hypoxia‐Inducible Factor 1 (HIF1) to Regulate Pulmonary Artery Smooth Muscle Cell ProliferationChen, Tianji, Zhou, Qiyuan, Tang, Haiyang, Bozkanat, Melike, Yuan, Jason X.‐J., Raj, J. Usha, Zhou, Guofei 05 December 2016 (has links)
Background-Previously we found that smooth muscle cell (SMC)-specific knockout of miR-17 similar to 92 attenuates hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension. However, the mechanism underlying miR-17 similar to 92-mediated pulmonary artery SMC (PASMC) proliferation remains unclear. We sought to investigate whether miR-17 similar to 92 regulates hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) activity and PASMC proliferation via prolyl hydroxylases (PHDs). Methods and Results-We show that hypoxic sm-17 similar to 92(-/-) mice have decreased hematocrit, red blood cell counts, and hemoglobin contents. The sm-17 similar to 92 (-/-) mouse lungs express decreased mRNA levels of HIF targets and increased levels of PHD2. miR-17 similar to 92 inhibitors suppress hypoxia-induced levels of HIF1 alpha, VEGF, Glut1, HK2, and PDK1 but not HIF2 alpha in vitro in PASMC. Overexpression of miR-17 in PASMC represses PHD2 expression, whereas miR-17/20a inhibitors induce PHD2 expression. The 3'-UTR of PHD2 contains a functional miR-17/20a seed sequence. Silencing of PHD2 induces HIF1a and PCNA protein levels, whereas overexpression of PHD2 decreases HIF1 alpha and cell proliferation. SMC-specific knockout of PHD2 enhances hypoxia-induced vascular remodeling and exacerbates established pulmonary hypertension in mice. PHD2 activator R59949 reverses vessel remodeling in existing hypertensive mice. PHDs are dysregulated in PASMC isolated from pulmonary arterial hypertension patients. Conclusions-Our results suggest that PHD2 is a direct target of miR-17/20a and that miR-17 similar to 92 contributes to PASMC proliferation and polycythemia by suppression of PHD2 and induction of HIF1 alpha.
