Targeting Tumor Cell-Derived CCL2 As a Strategy to Overcome Bevacizumab Resistance in ETV5+ Colorectal Cancer Feng et al. Cell Death and Disease (2020) 11:916 https://doi.org/10.1038/s41419-020-03111-7 Cell Death & Disease ARTICLE Open Access Targeting tumor cell-derived CCL2 as a strategy to overcome Bevacizumab resistance in ETV5+ colorectal cancer Haoran Feng1,2,KunLiu1,3,XiaonanShen4,JuyongLiang1,2, Changgang Wang1,3,WeihuaQiu1,3,2,XiCheng 1,3,2 and Ren Zhao1,3,2 Abstract In our previous study, ETV5 mediated-angiogenesis was demonstrated to be dependent upon the PDGF-BB/PDGFR-β/ Src/STAT3/VEGFA pathway in colorectal cancer (CRC). However, the ability of ETV5 to affect the efficacy of anti- angiogenic therapy in CRC requires further investigation. Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) and a series of experiments were performed to identify the critical candidate gene involved in Bevacizumab resistance. Furthermore, the ability of treatment targeting the candidate gene to enhance Bevacizumab sensitivity in vitro and in vivo was investigated. Our results revealed that ETV5 directly bound to the VEGFA promoter to promote translation of VEGFA. However, according to in vitro and in vivo experiments, ETV5 unexpectedly accelerated antiVEGF therapy (Bevacizumab) resistance. GSEA and additional assays confirmed that ETV5 could promote angiogenesis by inducing the secretion of another tumor angiogenesis factor (CCL2) in CRC cells to facilitate Bevacizumab resistance. Mechanistically, ETV5 upregulated CCL2 by activating STAT3 to facilitate binding with the CCL2 promoter. ETV5 induced-VEGFA translation and CCL2 secretion were mutually independent mechanisms, that induced angiogenesis 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; by activating the PI3K/AKT and p38/MAPK signaling pathways in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). In CRC tissues, ETV5 protein levels were positively associated with CD31, CCL2, and VEGFA protein expression. CRC patients possessing high expression of ETV5/VEGFA or ETV5/CCL2 exhibited a poorer prognosis compared to that of other patients. Combined antiCCL2 and antiVEGFA (Bevacizumab) treatment could inhibit tumor angiogenesis and growth more effectively than single treatments in CRCs with high expression of ETV5 (ETV5+ CRCs). In conclusion, our results not only revealed ETV5 as a novel biomarker for anti-angiogenic therapy, but also indicated a potential combined therapy strategy that involved in targeting of both CCL2 and VEGFA in ETV5+ CRC.

They produce soluble factors that can act in an autocrine or paracrine manner on immune cells or directly on aggressors. A screen- ing of the activities of 36 cytokines on keratinocyte gene expression identified IL-17A, IL-22, oncostatin M, TNF-a, and IL-1a as potent cytokines in inducing cutaneous inflammation. These five proinflammatory cytokines synergistically increased production of CXCL8 and b-defensin 2 (BD2). In addition, ex vivo studies on human skin explants demonstrated upregulation of BD2, S100A7, and CXCL8 expression in response to the same combination of cytokines. In vivo intradermal injection of these five cytokines in mouse increased CXCL1, CXCL2, CXCL3, S100A9, and BD3 expression, associated with neutrophil infiltration. We confirmed and extended this synergistic effect using quantitative real-time PCR analysis and observed increased expression of nine chemokines and 12 antimicrobial peptides. Production of CXCL, CXCL5, and CXCL8 by keratinocytes stimulated in the presence of this cytokine combination was associated with increased neutrophil chemotactic activity. Similarly, high production of BD2, BD3, and S100A7 was associated with an increased antimicrobial activity. Finally, the transcriptional profile observed in this in vitro model of inflammatory keratinocytes correlated with the one of lesional psoriatic skin.

But the signals that cause micro- metastatic cells to remain indolent, thereby enabling them to survive for extended periods of time, are unclear. Immunofluorescence and co-immunoprecipitation assays were used to explore the co-localization of CCL7 and CCR2. Immunohistochemical (IHC) assays were employed to detect the characters of metastatic HT29 cells in mice liver. Flow cytometry assays were performed to detect the immune cells. Bruberin vivo MS FX Pro Imager was used to observe the liver metastasis of CRC in mice. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) and western blot were employed to detect the expressions of related proteins. Trace RNA sequencing was employed to identify differentially expressed genes in MDSCs from liver micro-M and macro-M of CRC in mice. Here, we firstly constructed the vitro dormant cell models and metastatic dormant animal models of colorectal cancer. Then we found that myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) were increased significantly from liver micro-metastases to macro-metastases of CRC in mice. Moreover, monocytic MDSCs (Mo-MDSC) significantly promoted the dormant activation of micro-metastatic cells compared to 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; polymorphonuclear MDSCs (PMN-MDSC).

REED * 1Department of Medicine, Harborview Medical Center, University of Washington, Seattle, Washington 2Veterans Affairs Puget Sound Health Care System, Seattle Washington There is increased interest in the effects of secretory products from aged cells on promoting both benign and malignant cell growth. We identified a human fibroblast line, AG04382, from an aged donor that naturally demonstrated senescence-associated features and whose conditioned media significantly induced proliferation of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH1) cells. Candidate cytokines mediating this effect were identified with protein arrays and validated by ELISA. We found that the AG04382 fibroblast line secreted high levels of CXCL5, CCL5, and CCL2, but relative to the other lines, its conditioned media was unique in its increased expression of CCL5. Blocking studies using specific antibodies against CXCL5, CCL5, and CCL2 in the conditioned media of AG04382 showed that only CCL5 contributed significantly to BPH1 proliferation. Stimulation of BPH1 cells with rhuCCL5 resulted in increased proliferation and migration, as well as significant changes in the expression of genes that influence angiogenesis. These data suggest that CCL5 is a candidate chemokine secreted by aged cells that promotes prostate growth and regulates angiogenesis. J. Cell. Physiol. 9999: 1–6, 2009. ß 2009 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

  • CXCL5 Signaling Is a Shared Pathway of Neuroinflammation and Blood
    Wang et al. Journal of Neuroinflammation (2016) 13:6 DOI 10.1186/s12974-015-0474-6 RESEARCH Open Access CXCL5 signaling is a shared pathway of neuroinflammation and blood–brain barrier injury contributing to white matter injury in the immature brain Lin-Yu Wang1,2, Yi-Fang Tu3,4, Yung-Chieh Lin3,4 and Chao-Ching Huang3,5,6* Abstract Background: In very preterm infants, white matter injury is a prominent brain injury, and hypoxic ischemia (HI) and infection are the two primary pathogenic factors of this injury. Microglia and microvascular endothelial cells closely interact; therefore, a common signaling pathway may cause neuroinflammation and blood–brain barrier (BBB) damage after injury to the immature brain. CXC chemokine ligand 5 (CXCL5) is produced in inflammatory and endothelial cells by various organs in response to insults. CXCL5 levels markedly increased in the amniotic cavity in response to intrauterine infection and preterm birth in clinical studies. The objective of this study is to determine whether CXCL5 signaling is a shared pathway of neuroinflammation and BBB injury that contributes to white matter injury in the immature brain. Methods: Postpartum day 2 (P2) rat pups received lipopolysaccharide (LPS) followed by 90-min HI. Immunohistochemical analyses were performed to determine microglial activation, neutrophil infiltration, BBB damage, and myelin basic protein and glial fibrillary acidic protein expression. Immunofluorescence experiments were performed to determine the cellular distribution of CXCL5. Pharmacological tests were performed to inhibit or enhance CXCL5 activity. Results: On P2, predominant increases in microglial activation and BBB damage were observed 24 h after LPS-sensitized HI induction, and white matter injury (decreasedmyelinationandincreasedastrogliosis) was observed on P12 compared with controls.

Cancer cells that travel 1234567890():,; through the vasculature and invade new tissues can remain in a non-proliferative dormant state for years before colonizing the metastatic site. Switching from dormancy to colonization is the rate-limiting step of bone metastasis. Here we develop an ex vivo co-culture method to grow cancer cells in mouse bones to assess cancer cell proliferation using healthy or cancer- primed bones. Profiling soluble factors from conditioned media identifies the chemokine CXCL5 as a candidate to induce metastatic colonization. Additional studies using CXCL5 recombinant protein suggest that CXCL5 is sufficient to promote breast cancer cell pro- liferation and colonization in bone, while inhibition of its receptor CXCR2 with an antagonist blocks proliferation of metastatic cancer cells. This study suggests that CXCL5 and CXCR2 inhibitors may have efficacy in treating metastatic bone tumors dependent on the CXCL5/ CXCR2 axis. 1 Harper Cancer Research Institute, South Bend, IN, USA. 2 Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, University of Notre Dame, Notre Dame, IN, USA. 3 Tissue Mechanics Laboratory, Department of Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering, Bioengineering Graduate Program, University of Notre Dame, Notre Dame, IN, USA.

Here, we studied the potential role of CXCL5/CXCL8 receptor 2 (CXCR2) as a regulator of paraendothelial brain barrier function, using the well-characterized human cerebral microvascular endothelial cell line hCMEC/D3. Low basal CXCR2 mRNA and protein expression levels in hCMEC/D3 were found to strongly increase under inflammatory conditions. Correspondingly, immunohistochemistry of brain biopsies from two patients with active multiple sclerosis revealed upregulation of endothelial CXCR2 compared to healthy control tissue. Recombinant CXCL5 or CXCL8 rapidly and transiently activated Akt/protein kinase B in hCMEC/D3. This was followed by a redistribution of tight junction-associated protein zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1) and by the formation of actin stress fibers.

  • And Nuclear Factor-Κb–Regulated CXC Chemokine Gene Expression in Lung Carcinogenesis
    Cancer Prevention Research Cyclic AMP-Responsive Element Binding Protein– and Nuclear Factor-κB–Regulated CXC Chemokine Gene Expression in Lung Carcinogenesis Hongxia Sun, Wen-Cheng Chung, Seung-Hee Ryu, Zhenlin Ju, Hai T. Tran, Edward Kim, Jonathan M. Kurie and Ja Seok Koo Abstract The recognition of the importance of angiogenesis in tumor progression has led to the development of antiangiogenesis as a new strategy for cancer treatment and prevention. By modulating tumor microenvironment and inducing angiogenesis, the proinflammatory cytokine interleukine (IL)-1β has been reported to promote tumor development. However, the factors mediating IL-1β–induced angiogenesis in non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and the regulation of these angiogenicfactorsby IL-1 β are less clear. Here, we report that IL-1β up-regulated an array of proangiogenic CXC chemokine genes in the NSCLC cell line A549 and in normal human tracheobronchial epithelium cells, as determined by microarray analysis. Further analysis revealed that IL-1β induced much higher protein levels of CXC chemokines in NSCLC cells than in normal human tracheobronchial epithelium cells. Con- ditioned medium from IL-1β–treated A549 cells markedly increased endothelial cell migra- tion, which was suppressed by neutralizing antibodies against CXCL5 and CXCR2. We also found that IL-1β–induced CXC chemokine gene overexpression in NSCLC cells was abro- gated with the knockdown of cyclic AMP-responsive element binding protein (CREB) or nuclear factor κB (NF-κB). Moreover, the expression of the CXC chemokine genes as well as CREB and NF-κB activities was greatly increased in the tumorigenic NSCLC cell line compared with normal, premalignant immortalized or nontumorigenic cell lines.
