Dexamethasone-induced Ras-related protein 1 (Rasd1) is a member of the Ras superfamily of monomeric G proteins that have a regulatory function in signal transduction. Rasd1, also known as Dexras1 or AGS1, is rapidly induced by dexamethasone (Dex). While prior data indicates that Rasd1 is highly expressed in the pituitary and that the gene may function in regulation of corticotroph activity, its exact cellular localization in this tissue has not been delineated. Nor has it been determined which endocrine pituitary cell type(s) are responsive to Dex-induced expression of Rasd1. We hypothesized that Rasd1 is primarily localized in corticotrophs and furthermore, that its expression in these cells would be upregulated in response to exogenous Dex administration. Rasd1 expression in each pituitary cell type both under basal conditions and 1-hour post Dex treatment were examined in adult male mice. While a proportion of all endocrine pituitary cell types expressed Rasd1, a majority of corticotrophs and thyrotrophs expressed Rasd1 under basal condition. In vehicle treated animals, approximately 50-60% of corticotrophs and thyrotrophs cells expressed Rasd1 while the gene was detected in only 15-30% of lactotrophs, somatotrophs, and gonadotrophs. In Dex treated animals, Rasd1 expression was significantly increased in corticotrophs, somatotrophs, lactotrophs, and gonadotrophs but not thyrotrophs. In Dex treated animals, Rasd1 was detected in 80-95% of gonadotrophs and corticotrophs. In contrast, Dex treatment increased Rasd1 expression to a lesser extent (55-60%) in somatotrophs and lactotrophs. Corticotrophs of the pars intermedia, which lack glucocorticoid receptors, failed to display increased Rasd1 expression in Dex treated animals. Rasd1 is highly expressed in corticotrophs under basal conditions and is further increased after Dex treatment, further supporting its role in glucocorticoid negative feedback. In addition, the presence and Dex-induced expression of Rasd1 in endocrine pituitary cell types, other than corticotrophs, may implicate Rasd1 in novel pituitary functions.

The recent discovery of mechanosensitive ion channels has promoted mechanobiological research in the field of hypertension and nephrology. We previously reported Piezo2 expression in mouse mesangial and juxtaglomerular renin-producing cells, and its modulation by dehydration. This study aimed to investigate how Piezo2 expression is altered in hypertensive nephropathy. The effects of the nonsteroidal mineralocorticoid receptor blocker, esaxerenone, were also analyzed. Four-week-old Dahl salt-sensitive rats were randomly assigned to three groups: rats fed a 0.3% NaCl diet (DSN), rats fed a high 8% NaCl diet (DSH), and rats fed a high salt diet supplemented with esaxerenone (DSH + E). After six weeks, DSH rats developed hypertension, albuminuria, glomerular and vascular injuries, and perivascular fibrosis. Esaxerenone effectively decreased blood pressure and ameliorated renal damage. In DSN rats, Piezo2 was expressed in Pdgfrb-positive mesangial and Ren1-positive cells. Piezo2 expression in these cells was enhanced in DSH rats. Moreover, Piezo2-positive cells accumulated in the adventitial layer of intrarenal small arteries and arterioles in DSH rats. These cells were positive for Pdgfrb, Col1a1, and Col3a1, but negative for Acta2 (αSMA), indicating that they were perivascular mesenchymal cells different from myofibroblasts. Piezo2 upregulation was reversed by esaxerenone treatment. Furthermore, Piezo2 inhibition by siRNA in the cultured mesangial cells resulted in upregulation of Tgfb1 expression. Cyclic stretch also upregulated Tgfb1 in both transfections of control siRNA and Piezo2 siRNA. Our findings suggest that Piezo2 may have a contributory role in modulating the pathogenesis of hypertensive nephrosclerosis and have also highlighted the therapeutic effects of esaxerenone on salt-induced hypertensive nephropathy. Mechanochannel Piezo2 is known to be expressed in the mouse mesangial cells and juxtaglomerular renin-producing cells, and this was confirmed in normotensive Dahl-S rats. In salt-induced hypertensive Dahl-S rats, Piezo2 upregulation was observed in the mesangial cells, renin cells, and notably, perivascular mesenchymal cells, suggesting its involvement in kidney fibrosis.

Abstract

Objective

Life-threatening hypoglycemia is a major limiting factor in the management of diabetes. While it is known that counterregulatory responses to hypoglycemia are impaired in diabetes, molecular mechanisms underlying the reduced responses remain unclear. Given the established roles of the hypothalamic proopiomelanocortin (POMC)/melanocortin 4 receptor (MC4R) circuit in regulating sympathetic nervous system (SNS) activity and the SNS in stimulating counterregulatory responses to hypoglycemia, we hypothesized that hypothalamic POMC as well as MC4R, a receptor for POMC derived melanocyte stimulating hormones, is required for normal hypoglycemia counterregulation.

Methods

To test the hypothesis, we induced hypoglycemia or glucopenia in separate cohorts of mice deficient in either POMC or MC4R in the arcuate nucleus (ARC) or the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus (PVH), respectively, and measured their circulating counterregulatory hormones. In addition, we performed a hyperinsulinemic-hypoglycemic clamp study to further validate the function of MC4R in hypoglycemia counterregulation. We also measured Pomc and Mc4r mRNA levels in the ARC and PVH, respectively, in the streptozotocin-induced type 1 diabetes mouse model and non-obese diabetic (NOD) mice to delineate molecular mechanisms by which diabetes deteriorates the defense systems against hypoglycemia. Finally, we treated diabetic mice with the MC4R agonist MTII, administered stereotaxically into the PVH, to determine its potential for restoring the counterregulatory response to hypoglycemia in diabetes.

Results

Stimulation of epinephrine and glucagon release in response to hypoglycemia or glucopenia was diminished in both POMC- and MC4R-deficient mice, relative to their littermate controls. Similarly, the counterregulatory response was impaired in association with decreased hypothalamic Pomc and Mc4r expression in the diabetic mice, a phenotype that was not reversed by insulin treatment which normalized glycemia. In contrast, infusion of an MC4R agonist in the PVH restored the counterregulatory response in diabetic mice.

Conclusion

In conclusion, hypothalamic Pomc as well as Mc4r, both of which are reduced in type 1 diabetic mice, are required for normal counterregulatory responses to hypoglycemia. Therefore, enhancing MC4R function may improve hypoglycemia counterregulation in diabetes.

The adaptive response of the mandible and temporomandibular joint (TMJ) to altered occlusion in juvenile patients is presently unclear. To address this question, we established a mouse model in which all molars were extracted from the maxillary right quadrant in pre-pubertal, 3-week-old mice and analyzed morphological, tissue, cellular, and molecular changes in the mandible and condyle three weeks later. Unilateral loss of maxillary molars led to significant, robust, bilateral changes, primarily in condylar morphology, including antero-posterior narrowing of the condylar head and neck and increased convexity at the condylar surface, as determined by geometric morphometric analysis. Furthermore, both condyles in experimental mice exhibited a degenerative phenotype, which included decreased bone volume and increased mineral density near the condylar head surface compared to control mice. Changes in condylar morphology and mineralized tissue composition were associated with alterations in the cellular architecture of the mandibular condylar cartilage, including increased expression of markers for mature (Col2a1) and hypertrophic (Col10a1) chondrocytes, suggesting a shift towards differentiating chondrocytes. Our results show significant bilateral condylar morphological changes, alterations in tissue composition, cellular organization, and molecular expression, as well as degenerative disease, in response to the unilateral loss of teeth. Our study provides a relatively simple, tractable mouse tooth extraction system that will be of utility in uncovering the cellular and molecular mechanisms of condylar and mandibular adaptation in response to altered occlusion.

Abstract

AIM:

To determine whether it is possible to identify different immune phenotypic subpopulations of cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) in pancreatic cancer (PC).

METHODS:

We defined four different stromal compartments in surgical specimens with PC: The juxtatumoural, peripheral, lobular and septal stroma. Tissue microarrays were produced containing all pre-defined PC compartments, and the expression of 37 fibroblast (FB) and 8 extracellular matrix (ECM) markers was evaluated by immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence (IF), double-IF, and/or in situ hybridization. The compartment-specific mean labelling score was determined for each marker using a four-tiered scoring system. DOG1 gene expression was examined by quantitative reverse transcription PCR (qPCR).

RESULTS:

CD10, CD271, cytoglobin, DOG1, miR-21, nestin, and tenascin C exhibited significant differences in expression profiles between the juxtatumoural and peripheral compartments. The expression of CD10, cytoglobin, DOG1, nestin, and miR-21 was moderate/strong in juxtatumoural CAFs (j-CAFs) and barely perceptible/weak in peripheral CAFs (p-CAFs). The upregulation of DOG1 gene expression in PC compared to normal pancreas was verified by qPCR. Tenascin C expression was strong in the juxtatumoural ECM and barely perceptible/weak in the peripheral ECM. CD271 expression was barely perceptible in j-CAFs but moderate in the other compartments. Galectin-1 was stronger expressed in j-CAFs vs septal fibroblasts, PDGF-Rβ, tissue transglutaminase 2, and hyaluronic acid were stronger expressed in lobular fibroblasts vs p-CAFs, and plectin-1 was stronger expressed in j-CAFs vs l-FBs. The expression of the remaining 33 markers did not differ significantly when related to the quantity of CAFs/FBs or the amount of ECM in the respective compartments.

CONCLUSION:

Different immune phenotypic CAF subpopulations can be identified in PC, using markers such as cytoglobin, CD271, and miR-21. Future studies should determine whether CAF subpopulations have different functional properties.

Appropriate cristae remodeling is a determinant of mitochondrial function and bioenergetics and thus represents a crucial process for cellular metabolic adaptations. Here, we show that mitochondrial cristae architecture and expression of the master cristae-remodeling protein OPA1 in proopiomelanocortin (POMC) neurons, which are key metabolic sensors implicated in energy balance control, is affected by fluctuations in nutrient availability. Genetic inactivation of OPA1 in POMC neurons causes dramatic alterations in cristae topology, mitochondrial Ca2+ handling, reduction in alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH) in target areas, hyperphagia, and attenuated white adipose tissue (WAT) lipolysis resulting in obesity. Pharmacological blockade of mitochondrial Ca2+ influx restores α-MSH and the lipolytic program, while improving the metabolic defects of mutant mice. Chemogenetic manipulation of POMC neurons confirms a role in lipolysis control. Our results unveil a novel axis that connects OPA1 in POMC neurons with mitochondrial cristae, Ca2+ homeostasis, and WAT lipolysis in the regulation of energy balance.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a female endocrine disorder that is associated with prenatal exposure to excess androgens. In prenatally androgenized (PNA) mice that model PCOS, GABAergic neural transmission to and innervation of GnRH neurons is increased. Evidence suggests that elevated GABAergic innervation originates in the arcuate nucleus (ARC). We hypothesised that GABA-GnRH circuit abnormalities are a direct consequence of PNA, resulting from DHT binding to androgen receptor (AR) in the prenatal brain. However, whether prenatal ARC neurons express AR at the time of PNA treatment is presently unknown. We used RNAScope _in situ_ hybridization to localize AR mRNA (_Ar_)-expressing cells in healthy gestational day (GD) 17.5 female mouse brains and to assess co-expression levels in specific neuronal phenotypes. Our study revealed that less than 10% of ARC GABA cells expressed _Ar_. In contrast, we found that ARC kisspeptin neurons, critical regulators of GnRH neurons, were highly co-localised with _Ar_. Approximately 75% of ARC _Kiss1_-expressing cells also expressed _Ar_ at GD17.5, suggesting that ARC kisspeptin neurons are potential targets of PNA. Investigating other neuronal populations in the ARC we found that approximately 50% of pro-opiomelanocortin (_Pomc_) cells, 22% of tyrosine hydroxylase (_Th_) cells, 8% of agouti-related protein (_Agrp_) cells and 8% of somatostatin (_Sst_) cells express _Ar_. Lastly, RNAscope in coronal sections showed _Ar_ expression in the medial preoptic area (mPOA), and the ventral part of the lateral septum (vLS). These _Ar_-expressing regions were highly GABAergic, and 22% of GABA cells in the mPOA and 25% of GABA cells in the vLS also expressed _Ar_. Our findings identify specific neuronal phenotypes in the ARC, mPOA and vLS that are androgen sensitive in late gestation. PNA-induced functional changes in these neurons may be related to the development of impaired central mechanisms associated with PCOS-like features.

Bone loss is often observed adjacent to inflammatory processes. The WNT signaling pathways have been implicated as novel regulators of both immune responses and bone metabolism. WNT16 is important for cortical bone mass by inhibiting osteoclast differentiation, and we have here investigated the regulation of WNT16 by several members of the pro-inflammatory gp130 cytokine family.The expression and regulation of Wnt16 in primary murine cells were studied by qPCR, scRNAseq and in situ hybridization. Signaling pathways were studied by siRNA silencing. The importance of oncostatin M (OSM)-induced WNT16 expression for osteoclastogenesis was studied in cells from Wnt16-deficient and wild-type mice.We found that IL-6/sIL-6R and OSM induce the expression of Wnt16 in primary mouse calvarial osteoblasts, with OSM being the most robust stimulator. The induction of Wnt16 by OSM was dependent on gp130 and OSM receptor (OSMR), and downstream signaling by the SHC1/STAT3 pathway, but independent of ERK. Stimulation of the calvarial cells with OSM resulted in enhanced numbers of mature, oversized osteoclasts when cells were isolated from Wnt16 deficient mice compared to cells from wild-type mice. OSM did not affect Wnt16 mRNA expression in bone marrow cell cultures, explained by the finding that Wnt16 and Osmr are expressed in distinctly different cells in bone marrow, nor was osteoclast differentiation different in OSM-stimulated bone marrow cell cultures isolated from Wnt16-/- or wild-type mice. Furthermore, we found that Wnt16 expression is substantially lower in cells from bone marrow compared to calvarial osteoblasts.These findings demonstrate that OSM is a robust stimulator of Wnt16 mRNA in calvarial osteoblasts and that WNT16 acts as a negative feedback regulator of OSM-induced osteoclast formation in the calvarial bone cells, but not in the bone marrow.

While Agouti-related peptide (AgRP) neurons play a key role in the regulation of food intake, their contribution to the anorexia caused by pro-inflammatory insults has yet to be identified. Using a combination of neuroanatomical and pharmacogenetics experiments, this study sought to investigate the importance of AgRP neurons and downstream targets in the anorexia caused by the peripheral administration of a moderate dose of lipopolysaccharide (LPS; 100 μ g/kg, ip). First, in the C57/Bl6 mouse, we demonstrated that LPS induced c-fos in select AgRP-innervated brain sites involved in feeding, but not in any arcuate proopiomelanocortin neurons. Double immunohistochemistry further showed that LPS selectively induced c-Fos in a large subset of melanocortin 4 receptor-expressing neurons in the lateral parabrachial nucleus. Secondly, we used pharmacogenetics to stimulate the activity of AgRP neurons during the course of LPS-induced anorexia. In AgRP-Cre mice expressing the designer receptor hM3Dq-Gq only in AgRP neurons, the administration of the designer drug clozapine-N-oxide (CNO) induced robust food intake. Strikingly, CNO-mediated food intake was rapidly and completely blunted by the coadministration of LPS. Neuroanatomical experiments further indicated that LPS did not interfere with the ability of CNO to stimulate c-Fos in AgRP neurons. In summary, our findings combined together support the view that the stimulation of select AgRP-innervated brain sites and target neurons, rather than the inhibition of AgRP neurons themselves, is likely to contribute to the rapid suppression of food intake observed during acute bacterial endotoxemia.

Renal interstitial fibrosis is characterized by the development of myofibroblasts, originating from resident renal and immigrating cells. Myofibroblast formation and extracellular matrix production during kidney damage are triggered by various factors. Among these, endothelins have been discussed as potential modulators of renal fibrosis. Utilizing mouse models of adenine nephropathy (AN) and unilateral ureter occlusion (UUO), this study aimed to investigate the contribution of endothelin signaling in stromal mesenchymal resident renal interstitial cells. We found in controls that adenine feeding and UUO caused marked upregulations of endothelin-1 (ET-1) gene expression in endothelial and in tubular cells and a strong upregulation of ETA-receptor (ETA-R) gene expression in interstitial and mesangial cells, while the gene expression of ETB-receptor (ETB-R) did not change. Conditional deletion of ETA-R and ETB-R gene expression in the FoxD1 stromal cell compartment which includes interstitial cells significantly reduced renal ETA-R gene expression and moderately lowered renal ETB-R gene expression. ET receptor (ET-R) deletion exerted no apparent effects on kidney development nor on kidney function. Adenine feeding and UUO led to similar increases in profibrotic and proinflammatory gene expression in control as well as in ETAflflETBflfl FoxD1Cre+ mice (ET-Ko). In summary, our findings suggest that adenine feeding and UUO activate endothelin signaling in interstitial cells which is due to upregulated ETA-R expression and enhanced renal ET-1 production Our data also suggest that the activation of endothelin signaling in interstitial cells has less impact for the development of experimentally induced fibrosis.

Background The adult mammalian heart responds to cardiac injury by formation of persistent fibrotic scar that eventually leads to heart failure. In contrast, the neonatal mammalian heart reacts to injury by the development of transient fibrotic tissue that is eventually replaced by regenerated cardiomyocytes. How fibrosis occurs in the neonatal mammalian heart remains unknown. To start elucidating the molecular underpinnings of neonatal cardiac fibrosis, we investigated Wnt signaling in the neonatal heart after cryoinjury.

Methods and Results Using expression of the Wnt target gene Axin2 as an indicator of Wnt/β‐catenin signaling activation, we discovered that epicardial cells in the ventricles are responsive to Wnt in the uninjured neonatal heart. Lineage‐tracing studies of these Wnt‐responsive epicardial cells showed that they undergo epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition and infiltrate into the subepicardial space and exhibit fibroblast phenotypes after injury. In addition, we showed that—similar to adult ischemic injury—neonatal cryoinjury results in activation of Wnt signaling in cardiac fibroblasts near injured areas. Furthermore, through in situ hybridization of all 19 Wnt ligands in injured neonatal hearts, we observed upregulation of Wnt ligands (Wnt2b, Wnt5a, and Wnt9a) that had not been implicated in the adult cardiac injury response.

Conclusions These results demonstrate that cryoinjury in neonatal heart leads to the formation of fibrotic tissue that involves Wnt‐responsive epicardial cells undergoing epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition to give rise to fibroblasts and activation of Wnt signaling in resident cardiac fibroblasts.

Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) signaling is essential for many developmental processes and plays a pivotal role in skeletal homeostasis, regeneration and wound healing. FGF signals through one of five tyrosine kinase receptors: Fgfr1a, -1b, -2, -3, -4. To characterize the expression of zebrafish fgfr3 from the larval stage to adulthood, we used RNAscope in situ hybridization on paraffin sections of the zebrafish head. Our study revealed spatial and temporal distribution of fgfr3 transcript in chondrocytes of the head cartilages, osteoblasts involved in bone formation, ventricular zone of the brain, undifferentiated mesenchymal cells of the skin, and lens epithelium of the eye. In general, the expression pattern of zebrafish fgfr3 is similar to the expression observed in higher vertebrates.
