Autoimmune susceptibility gene PTPN2 is required for clearance of adherent-invasive Escherichia coli by integrating bacterial uptake and lysosomal defence. Gut 2022; 71:89-99.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Alterations in the intestinal microbiota are linked with a wide range of autoimmune and inflammatory conditions, including inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), where pathobionts penetrate the intestinal barrier and promote inflammatory reactions. In patients with IBD, the ability of intestinal macrophages to efficiently clear invading pathogens is compromised resulting in increased bacterial translocation and excessive immune reactions. Here, we investigated how an IBD-associated loss-of-function variant in the protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 2 (PTPN2) gene, or loss of PTPN2 expression affected the ability of macrophages to respond to invading bacteria. DESIGN IBD patient-derived macrophages with wild-type (WT) PTPN2 or carrying the IBD-associated PTPN2 SNP, peritoneal macrophages from WT and constitutive PTPN2-knockout mice, as well as mice specifically lacking PTPN2 in macrophages were infected with non-invasive K12 Escherichia coli, the human adherent-invasive E. coli (AIEC) LF82, or a novel mouse AIEC (mAIEC) strain. RESULTS Loss of PTPN2 severely compromises the ability of macrophages to clear invading bacteria. Specifically, loss of functional PTPN2 promoted pathobiont invasion/uptake into macrophages and intracellular survival/proliferation by three distinct mechanisms: Increased bacterial uptake was mediated by enhanced expression of carcinoembryonic antigen cellular adhesion molecule (CEACAM)1 and CEACAM6 in PTPN2-deficient cells, while reduced bacterial clearance resulted from defects in autophagy coupled with compromised lysosomal acidification. In vivo, mice lacking PTPN2 in macrophages were more susceptible to mAIEC infection and mAIEC-induced disease. CONCLUSIONS Our findings reveal a tripartite regulatory mechanism by which PTPN2 preserves macrophage antibacterial function, thus crucially contributing to host defence against invading bacteria.

Abstract
The aim of our study was to evaluate the effect of alpha-interferon (alpha-IFN) on cell growth and on the different IGF system components in a human non-small cell lung cancer line (Calu-6) in vitro. Our results confirm the release of IGF-I and IGF-II by these cells. The amount of IGF-II in conditioned media (10.25 +/- 3.95 nM/10(6) cells, mean +/- SE) was more than 10-fold higher than that of IGF-I. alpha-IFN treatment reduced IGF-II levels in the media, with a maximal effect between 1 and 10 U/ml (delta% of control: -31 and -55%, respectively, p < 0.05). IGF-I was significantly reduced at 0.5 U/ml (p < 0.01). No difference, however, was observed in IGF mRNA expression between untreated and alpha-IFN treated cells. An increase in IGF-I and IGF-II intracellular levels in alpha-IFN treated cultures was observed, suggesting that alpha-IFN can regulate the transfer of these peptides into the cells. Furthermore, IGF type-I and particularly type-lI receptor expression was increased after alpha-IFN treatment. IGFBP-3 was detected only in trace amounts in the conditioned media; however, it showed an increase after alpha-IFN treatment (+110% at 1 U/ml). IGFBP-3 mRNA expression showed a slight increase after treatment with 1 and 10 U/ml. alpha-IFN (1-10 U/ml) reduced the stimulatory effect of IGF-I on cell replication (p < 0.01), inhibited (p < 0.01) cell replication in untreated and in fetal calf serum (FCS)-stimulated cells, and increased apoptosis in Calu-6 cells. Our data suggest that alpha-IFN may exert its effects at the cellular level in part through modification of the local IGF system.

Abstract
PC12 cells are commonly used in the study of neuronal cells. It was reported that IFNgamma enhances neurite outgrowth of PC12 cells by NGF-stimuli. Accordingly, IFNgamma was examined to determine if it could solely produce neurite outgrowth. In addition, because the synergism between TNFalpha and IFNgamma is well-known, this study investigated whether or not a mixture of IFNgamma and TNFalpha might augment neurite outgrowth on PC12 cells. Finally, this study examined how an AG490 treatment, which was used to inhibit the IFNgamma signal in this study, affected the cytokine-mediated phenomenon. The results showed that the cytokines did not cause an increase in apoptosis in the PC12 cells and the serum-starved condition blocked the cytokine-mediated neurite outgrowth. Interestingly, AG490 enhanced this effect. In conclusion, it was shown that IFNgamma has the potential to form neurites, and TNFalpha can enhance this ability.

Abstract
Molecular subtyping of human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with potential mechanistic and therapeutic impact has not been achieved thus far. We have analyzed the mRNA expression patterns of 43 different human HCC samples and 3 HCC cell lines in comparison with normal adult liver using high-density cDNA microarrays. Two main groups of HCC, designated group A (65%) and group B (35%), were distinguished based on clustering of the most highly varying genes. Group A HCCs were characterized by induction of a number of interferon (IFN)-regulated genes, whereas group B was characterized mainly by down-regulation of several apoptosis-relevant and IFN-regulated genes. The number of apoptotic tumor cells and tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes was significantly higher in tumors of group A as compared with those of group B. Based on the expression pattern, group B was further subdivided into two subgroups, designated subgroup B1 (6 of 43 tumors, 14%) and subgroup B2 (9 of 43 tumors, 21%). A prominent characteristic of subgroup B1 was high overexpression of insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-II. All tested HCC cell lines expressed equally high concentrations of IGF-II transcripts and co-segregated with group B1 in clustering. IGF-II overexpression and induction of IFN-related genes were mutually exclusive, even when analysis was extended to other cancer expression profile studies. Moreover, IFN-gamma treatment substantially reduced IGF-II expression in HCC cells. In conclusion, cDNA microarray analyses provided subtyping of HCCs that is related to intratumor inflammation and tumor cell apoptosis. This profiling may be of mechanistic and therapeutic impact because IGF-II overexpression has been linked to reduced apoptosis and increased proliferation and may be accessible to therapeutic intervention.

Abstract
Hemangiomas are benign tumors of the vascular endothelium and are the most common tumors of infancy. These tumors are characterized by an initial phase of rapid proliferation, which is followed, in most cases, by spontaneous involution. Although most lesions resolve without complication, there are some cases in which hemangiomas can be life threatening when occurring near a vital structure. Treatment for these aggressive tumors represents an unmet clinical need. In addition, this characteristic progression of hemangiomas through distinct phases provides a unique opportunity for studying endothelial cell biology and angiogenesis. Using DNA microarrays representing approximately 10,000 human genes, we identified insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF-2) as a potentially important regulator of hemangioma growth. IGF-2 was highly expressed during the proliferative phase and substantially decreased during involution. This finding was confirmed at the message level by quantitative reverse transcription-PCR and at the protein level by immunohistochemistry. IGF-2 protein was localized primarily to tumor vessels or vascular channels. Using a human hemangioma explant model, we show that IGF-2 promotes sprouting from intact hemangioma tissue. In addition, several angiogenesis-related factors, including integrins alpha(v)beta3 and alpha5beta1, are present in proliferating hemangiomas. During the involuting phase, an increase in several IFN-induced genes was observed. These studies identify potential regulators of hemangioma growth and involution and provide a foundation on which to build further mechanistic investigations into angiogenesis, using hemangiomas as a model.

Abstract
The insulin-like growth factor (IGF) system includes IGF-I and IGF-II, the type I and type II IGF receptors, and specific IGF binding proteins (IGFBP-1 to IGFBP-6). These factors regulate both normal and malignant brain growth. Enhanced expression of IGF-I and IGF-II mRNA transcripts has been demonstrated in gliomas, meniningiomas, and other tumours. Abnormal imprinting of IGF-II occurs in gliomas, medulloblastomas, and meningiomas. Both types of IGF receptor are expressed in gliomas and, in particular, the type I IGF receptor appears to be upregulated in malignant brain tissue. Antisense IGF-I receptor mRNA induces an antitumour response, resulting in complete brain tumour regression. Clinical trials for the treatment of brain tumours in humans based on a gene transfer protocol using IGF-I receptor antisense are under way. All six IGFBPs are expressed to a variable extent in brain tumours. High concentrations of IGFBP-2 are found in cerebrospinal fluid from patients with malignant central nervous system tumours; therefore, IGFBP-2 might be a useful marker for these tumours. IGFBP-4 appears to be a negative regulator of tumour proliferation. Both in vitro and in vivo experiments suggest that the IGF system represents an important target for the treatment of malignant central nervous system tumours and the ongoing trials should provide valuable information for future therapeutic approaches.

Abstract
Recombinant human interferon gamma (r-hu-IFNgamma) exerts both antitumoral activity in the early stages of human malignant mesothelioma and a cytostatic effect in human mesothelioma (HM) cell lines in vitro. The antiproliferative effect of interferons (IFNs) reported in a variety of cells has been attributed to several mechanisms. In order to progress in the understanding of HM cell growth modulation by r-hu-IFNgamma, modifications of cell cycle progression and expression of key cell cycle regulator proteins in response to r-hu-IFNgamma were examined. Nine HM cell lines were studied, including one resistant to the antiproliferative effect of r-hu-IFNgamma. Except in the resistant cell line r-hu-IFNgamma produced an arrest in the G1 and G2-M phases of the cell cycle, associated with a reduction in both cyclin A and cyclin dependent kinase inhibitors (CDKIs) expression. Moreover cyclin B1/cdc2 activity was decreased. The present study provides the first evidence of a G2-arrest in r-hu-IFNgamma-treated HM cell lines and indicates that HM cell lines, despite their tumorigenic origin still support cell cycle control. The cell cycle arrest induced by r-hu-IFNgamma seems to depend on cyclin regulation through p21(WAF1/CIP1)- and p27(Kip1)-independent mechanisms and is not directly related to the induced DNA damage.

Abstract
We have reported that immortalized Schwann cells (SC) express the insulin-like growth factor I receptor and IGF-binding protein-5 (IGFBP-5). IGF-I promotes SC survival and protects IGFBP-5 in SC-conditioned medium from proteolysis. In the current study we examined the roles of IGF-I and IGFBP-5 in primary SC. IGF-I enhances primary SC differentiation and gene and protein expression of IGFBP-5 and the myelinating protein, P0. SC that stably overexpress human IGFBP-5 also have higher levels of P0 gene expression. The phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase inhibitor (LY294002), but not the mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase inhibitor (PD98059), blocks IGF-I enhancement of IGFBP-5 gene and protein expression. Collectively, these results suggest that IGF-I promotes SC differentiation, and this may occur in part by enhancing IGFBP-5 expression via phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase activation. These data support a link between enhanced IGFBP-5 expression and cellular differentiation.

Abstract
Malignant rhabdoid tumors (MRT) are characterized by unique neoplastic cells demonstrating phenotypic diversity. By using the reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction, we have detected expression of various genes before and after differentiation induction with four different agents in four established MRT cell lines (TM87-16, STM91-01, TTC642, and TTC549). The agents used in this study were all-trans retinoic acid (RA), 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA), interleukin-3, or interferon-gamma. Before and after induction, c-myc, IGF-II, IGF-I receptor, and IGF-II receptor were constitutively expressed by all four cell lines. The neurofilament medium-size (NF-M) was constitutively expressed by the TM87-16 and TTC642, and the S100 protein alpha subunit was expressed by TM87-16, TTC642, and TTC549. Chromogranin A was expressed by TM87-16 only after treatment with either TPA or RA. MyoD, N-myc, tyrosine hydroxylase, N-CAM, trkA, and the S100 protein beta subunit were not expressed by any cell line before or after induction with these agents. All the MRT cell lines in this study except TM87-16 were highly resistant to differentiation induction. The proliferating cells in TM87-16 and TTC642 expressed mRNA profiles characteristic of neuroectoderm.

Abstract
Insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) and IGF-II are potent trophic factors for motor and sensory neurons and glial cells. The actions of IGF-I and IGF-II are mediated via the IGF-I receptor (IGF-IR). IGF:IGF-IR binding activates distinct signaling cascades, which in turn mediate the trophic effects of the IGFs. We discuss three main IGF coupled events: growth cone motility, long-term neurite outgrowth, and neuroprotection. Our data suggest that IGF-I enhances growth cone motility by promoting reorganization of actin and activation of focal adhesion proteins via the phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (Pl-3K) pathway. Long-term treatment with IGF-I activates the mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase cascade and promotes neurite outgrowth. A separable, but likely linked, action of the IGFs via Pl-3K is protection of neurons from apoptosis. These pleotrophic effects of IGFs suggest that this family of growth factors may have potential clinical utility in the treatment of neurological disorders.

Abstract
A role in neuronal homeostasis is suggested by the persistent expression of the insulin-like growth factors in the adult nervous system. SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells, a well-characterized in vitro model of human neurons, were used to investigate the effects of hyperosmotic stress on neurons. Neuronal DNA fragmentation was detected within 1 h and pyknotic nuclei were apparent in attached cells after 12 h of hyperosmotic stress. In parallel, flow cytometry measurements revealed a sudden increase in the rate of cells irreversibly undergoing programmed cell death after 12 h of hyperosmotic exposure. Insulin-like growth factor-I delayed the onset of a laddered DNA fragmentation pattern for 24 h and provided continuing protection against hyperosmotic exposure for 72 h. Amino acid uptake was decreased in hyperosmotic medium even in the presence of insulin-like growth factor-I; the protein synthesis inhibitor cycloheximide neither prevented the induction of programmed cell death nor interfered with the ability of insulin-like growth factor-I to act as an osmoprotectant in hyperosmotic medium. Cysteine and serine protease inhibitors each prevented DNA fragmentation under hyperosmotic conditions, suggesting that the osmoprotectant activity of insulin-like growth factor-I involves the suppression of protease activity. Collectively, these results indicate that insulin-like growth factor-I limits the death of neurons under stressful environmental conditions, suggesting that it may provide a candidate therapy in the treatment of hyperosmolar coupled neurological injury.

Abstract
Suramin, traditionally used in the treatment of trypanosomiasis, is under investigation in the treatment of cancer. One side effect that limits its use is the onset of a sensorimotor polyneuropathy. In order to investigate the mechanism by which suramin induces polyneuropathy, we examined its effects on SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells, an in vitro model of neuronal growth and differentiation. Addition of 50-400 micrograms/ml suramin to SH-SY5Y cells grown in 0.6% CS inhibited [3H]thymidine ([3H]TdR) incorporation and cell growth. Upon removal of suramin, [3H]TdR incorporation increased, demonstrating that levels of suramin used were cytostatic and not cytotoxic. Analysis of suramin-treated SH-SY5Y cells by flow cytometry revealed growth arrest in the G1/G0 phase of the cell cycle. IGF-II-induced SH-SY5Y growth is mediated by the type I IGF receptor (IGF-IR). Therefore, we examined its effect on IGF-IR tyrosine phosphorylation. Suramin prevented IGF-II-stimulated IGF-IR tyrosine phosphorylation. These results indicate that in SH-SY5Y cells, suramin acts as a cytostatic agent and can block IGF-II-dependent cell growth by preventing IGF-IR activation. Thus, suramin toxicity in the peripheral nervous system may be due, in part, to preventing IGF and other growth factors from activating their receptors.

Abstract
Activation of the type I insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF-IR) blocks osmotic mediated programmed cell death (PCD) in neurons. We speculated that IGF-IR activation could afford neuroprotection either by effecting the negative regulators of the death pathway, Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL, or by altering activity of the ced-3/ICE-like proteases. Here we report that osmotic stress decreases total neuronal Bcl-2 by 4-fold and that hyperosmotic PCD correlates with proteolytic processing of neuronal ced-3/ICE-like proteases. IGF-IR activation maintains normal Bcl-2 levels, and signaling via the IGF-IR:phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase pathway prevents ICE/LAP-3 and Yama/CPP32 processing. Finally, increased neuronal IGF-IR expression enhances the negative death regulator Bcl-xL. We suggest that IGF-IR signaling exerts its short-term inhibitory effects upon PCD "upstream" of both Bcl proteins and ced-3/ICE-like proteases, while chronic increased IGF-IR expression may modulate susceptibility to death signals by mediating the negative death regulator, Bcl-xL.

We examined the effects of treatment with gamma-interferon (gamma-IFN) and nerve growth factor (NGF), alone, and in combination, on these progenitor subpopulations in the human neuroblastoma cell line, SH-SY5Y. Using fluorescence-activated flow cytometry (FACS), changes in expression of three differentiation-specific or -associated marker proteins, the 200 kD neurofilament protein, the myelin basic protein, and the S-100 protein, were analyzed. Growth rates and morphological changes associated with each treatment over the 2-wk incubation period were noted. The greatest effects were observed with combined IFN + NGF treatment. These were significant increases in expression of all three proteins, distinctive morphological signs of differentiation, and extensive inhibition of proliferation compared to control cultures. Treatment with NGF alone resulted in increased neurofilament protein expression and in the length and number of neurite extensions, but there was no effect on the growth rate. IFN induced striking morphological changes, significant inhibition of growth, and changes in protein expression that correlated with neuronal to non-neuronal subpopulation shifts due to the death of differentiated cells. When treatment was discontinued after 15 d, the morphological changes induced by NGF were reversed within 2-3 d, while those induced by IFN +/- NGF were present up to 4 wk post-treatment. Small, neuroblastic colonies were observed throughout the treatment period and within 4-6 wk after the cessation of treatment this cell-type fully reconstituted the cultures suggesting the presence of a stem cell. Our results indicate that treatment with gamma-IFN +/- NGF can regulate growth and induce, either stem cells or progenitor neuronal, Schwann and melanocyte subpopulations in the SH-SY5Y cell line to irreversibly differentiate.

Abstract
Insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) and the type I IGF receptor are widely distributed in developing and adult mammalian nervous systems. In vitro, IGF-I is a mitogen for primary neurons and also for cells from the SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cell line, a well-characterized model system of neuronal growth. In the current study, we examined the effects of osmotic stress on SH-SY5Y cell viability and the mechanism by which IGF-I serves as a neuronal osmoprotectant. Within 24 hr, exposure of SH-SY5Y cells to hyperosmotic serum-free media decreased (1) the number of viable cells, (2) the rate of 3H-thymidine incorporation, and (3) cell cycle progression. The inclusion of 10 nM IGF-I with hyperosmotic media prevented the loss of cell viability. The osmoprotective effects of IGF-I were inhibited by alpha-IR3, a blocking antibody of the type I IGF receptor. The observed loss of SH-SY5Y cell viability following hyperosmotic shock was due to an induction of programmed cell death as determined by flow cytometry and gel electrophoresis. Our results suggest that IGF-I can protect SH-SY5Y cells from hyperosmotic induced programmed cell death.

Abstract
Alzheimer disease is characterized by the presence of beta-amyloid protein deposits, neurofibrillary tangles and cholinergic dysfunction throughout the hippocampal region. In addition, the hippocampus, hypothalamus and olfactory bulb--the three areas where the insulin receptors are most dense--are also subject to neurodegeneration. The exact cause of the beta-amyloid deposits and NFTs is unknown. However, it is our intention to explicate the various pathogenic pathways through which Alzheimer disease arises. Fundamentally, the structural and metabolic damage found in Alzheimer disease is due to sustained elevation of interleukin-1 beta, a feature which is also found in insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus. Similarly, the beta-AP deposits found in the Alzheimer brain share the same molecular structure as the amylin deposits found in the pancreatic beta-cells in non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM), and are equally neurotoxic. These, and other pathophysiological parallels, afford some insight into the probably cause of Alzheimer disease and, as such, forms the basis of the causal hypothesis advanced in this paper.

Abstract
Insulin-like growth factors (IGF-I and IGF-II) are mitogenic polypeptides expressed in both developing and adult tissues. To examine the effects of IGFs on neuronal growth, we used SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells as an in vitro model of nervous system development. In the current study, we found that either IGF-I (0.1 to 10 nM), insulin (0.1 to 5 micrograms/ml) or calf serum (0.1 to 3%) increased SH-SY5Y proliferation over a 3 day period in a dose dependent manner. In each case, treatment with anti-IGF-I receptor antibodies blocked cell proliferation. IGF-II mRNA levels correlated with SH-SY5Y cell density; subconfluent cells expressed high levels of IGF-II mRNA while low levels of IGF-II mRNA were present in confluent cells. Similarly, serum deprivation increased IGF-I receptor mRNA by 4-fold. Collectively, these results support the concept that an IGF/IGF-I receptor system at least partially mediates SH-SY5Y cell proliferation and suggests the importance of IGFs in regulating neuronal growth.

Abstract
Insulin-like growth factor-II (IGF-II) and its receptors (type I and II IGF receptors) are expressed in the nervous system in a tissue and developmentally specific manner. We have previously shown that SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells synthesize and secrete high levels of IGF-II, and respond to it with increased neuritic outgrowth, DNA synthesis, and cell proliferation. SH-SY5Y cells also produce type I IGF and IGF-II/M6P receptors; however, it is not known whether these receptors mediate the observed growth promoting effects of IGF-II. In this study, we assayed the role of type I IGF receptor and IGF-II/M6P receptor expression in mediating autocrine IGF-II induced growth. Using anti-receptor antibodies, we found that IGF-II stimulates cell proliferation via the type I IGF receptor but not via the IGF-II/M6P receptor. By Northern analysis, we detected increased mRNA expression of both receptors, with more dramatic changes in type I IGF receptor expression. Collectively, our results indicate a role for the type I IGF receptor in mediating IGF-II induced autocrine neuroblastoma cell growth.
