DNA Methylation Negatively Regulates Gene Expression of Key Cytokines Secreted by BMMCs Recognizing FMDV-VLPs.
Virus-like particles (VLPs) have been studied and used as vaccines to control foot-and-mouth disease (FMD). Mast cells (MCs) express various pattern recognition receptors that recognize pathogens and secrete numerous cytokines to initiate and modulate immune responses. Our previous study showed that bone marrow-derived mast cells (BMMCs) can recognize foot-and-mouth disease virus-like particles (FMDV-VLPs) to differentially express various cytokines and that histone acetylation can regulate the cytokines secreted during BMMC recognition of FMDV-VLPs. To demonstrate the role of DNA methylation in this response process, BMMCs that recognize FMDV-VLPs were treated with azacytidine (5-AZA), an inhibitor of DNA methylation transferase. We prepared FMDV-VLPs as described previously and cultured the BMMCs. The transcription and expression of key cytokines and transcription factors were determined using real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) and Western blotting. Results showed that pre-treatment with AZA resulted in the increased transcription and expression of tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), interleukin (IL)-6, IL-13, and IL-10, while the changes in IL-13 transcription and IL-6 expression were irrelevant to mannose receptors (MRs). Furthermore, analysis of the transcription factors indicated that both the transcription and expression of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) increased significantly in the AZA pre-treated group, indicating that DNA methylation may also regulate NF-κB expression to modulate TNF-α, IL-13, and IL-6. However, pre-treatment with AZA did not alter the expression of microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF) or GATA-2. All the data demonstrate that DNA methylation negatively regulates the transcription and expression of TNF-α, IL-13, IL-10, and IL-6 secreted by recognizing FMDV-VLPs. These results provide new ideas for the mast cell-based design of more effective vaccine adjuvants and targeted therapies in the future.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Molecular Sciences (ISSN 1422-0067) provides an advanced forum for chemistry, molecular physics (chemical physics and physical chemistry) and molecular biology. It publishes research articles, reviews, communications and short notes. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their theoretical and experimental results in as much detail as possible. Therefore, there is no restriction on the length of the papers or the number of electronics supplementary files. For articles with computational results, the full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. Electronic files regarding the full details of the calculation and experimental procedure, if unable to be published in a normal way, can be deposited as supplementary material (including animated pictures, videos, interactive Excel sheets, software executables and others).
