Abstract
Oncostatin M (OSM) is a member of the interleukin-6 (IL-6) family of cytokines and has been found to have distinct anti-inflammatory and pro-inflammatory properties in various cellular and disease contexts. OSM signals through two receptor complexes, one of which includes OSMRβ. To investigate OSM-OSMRβ signaling in adult hematopoiesis, we utilized the readily available conditional Osmrfl/fl mouse model B6;129-Osmrtm1.1Nat/J, which is poorly characterized in the literature. This model contains loxP sites flanking exon 2 of the Osmr gene. We crossed Osmrfl/fl mice to interferon-inducible Mx1-Cre, which is robustly induced in adult hematopoietic cells. We observed complete recombination of the Osmrfl allele and loss of exon 2 in hematopoietic (bone marrow) as well as non-hematopoietic (liver, lung, kidney) tissues. Using a TaqMan assay with probes downstream of exon 2, Osmr transcript was lower in the kidney but equivalent in bone marrow, lung, and liver from Osmrfl/fl Mx1-Cre versus Mx1-Cre control mice, suggesting that transcript is being produced despite loss of this exon. Western blots show that liver cells from Osmrfl/fl Mx1-Cre mice had complete loss of OSMR protein, while bone marrow, kidney, and lung cells had reduced OSMR protein at varying levels. RNA-seq analysis of a subpopulation of bone marrow cells (hematopoietic stem cells) finds that some OSM-stimulated genes, but not all, are suppressed in Osmrfl/fl Mx1-Cre cells. Together, our data suggest that the B6;129-Osmrtm1.1Nat/J model should be utilized with caution as loss of Osmr exon 2 has variable and tissue-dependent impact on mRNA and protein expression.

Abstract
Oncostatin M (OSM) is a pleiotropic cytokine involved in a variety of inflammatory responses such as wound healing, liver regeneration, and bone remodeling. As a member of the interleukin-6 (IL-6) family of cytokines, OSM binds the shared receptor gp130, recruits either OSMRβ or LIFRβ, and activates a variety of signaling pathways including the JAK/STAT, MAPK, JNK, and PI3K/AKT pathways. Since its discovery in 1986, OSM has been identified as a significant contributor to a multitude of inflammatory diseases, including arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, lung and skin disease, cardiovascular disease, and most recently, COVID-19. Additionally, OSM has also been extensively studied in the context of several cancer types including breast, cervical, ovarian, testicular, colon and gastrointestinal, brain,lung, skin, as well as other cancers. While OSM has been recognized as a significant contributor for each of these diseases, and studies have shown OSM inhibition is effective at treating or reducing symptoms, very few therapeutics have succeeded into clinical trials, and none have yet been approved by the FDA for treatment. In this review, we outline the role OSM plays in a variety of inflammatory diseases, including cancer, and outline the previous and current strategies for developing an inhibitor for OSM signaling.

Comparative Study of the Cytokine Profiles of Serum and Tissues from Patients with the Ossification of the Posterior Longitudinal Ligament. Biomedicines 2023; 11:2021. [PMID: 37509659 PMCID: PMC10377187 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines11072021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/27/2023] [Revised: 07/12/2023] [Accepted: 07/14/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) is one of the contributing factors leading to severe cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM). The mechanism causing ossification is still unclear. The current study was designed to analyze the specimens of patients with or without OPLL. METHODS The study collected 51 patients with cervical spondylosis. There were six serum samples in both the non-OPLL (NOPLL) and OPLL groups. For tissue analysis, there were seven samples in the NOPLL group and five samples in the OPLL group. The specimens of serum and tissue were analyzed by using Human Cytokine Antibody Arrays to differentiate biomarkers between the OPLL and NOPLL groups, as well as between serum and OPLL tissue. Immunohistochemical staining of the ligament tissue was undertaken for both groups. RESULTS For OPLL vs. NOPLL, the serum leptin levels are higher in the OPLL group, corroborating others' observations that it may serve as a disease marker. In the tissue, angiogenin (ANG), osteopontin (OPN), and osteopro-tegerin (OPG) are higher than they are in the OPLL group (p < 0.05). For serum vs. OPLL tissue, many chemotactic cytokines demonstrated elevated levels of MIP1 delta, MCP-1, and RANTES in the serum, while many cytokines promoting or regulating bone genesis were up-regulated in tissue (oncostatin M, FGF-9, LIF, osteopontin, osteoprotegerin, TGF-beta2), as well as the factor that inhibits osteoclastogenesis (IL-10), with very few cytokines responsible for osteoclastogenesis. Molecules promoting angiogenesis, including angiotensin, vEGF, and osteoprotegerin, are abundant in the OPLL tissue, which paves the way for robust bone growth.

Abstract
Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is a typical type-2 inflammation involving several cytokines and is associated with epithelial cell dysfunction. Oncostatin M (OSM) (belonging to the interleukin(IL)-6 family) could be a key driver of epithelial barrier dysfunction. Therefore, we investigated the presence of OSM and IL-6 and the expression pattern of tight junctions (TJs) in the nasal tissue of CRSwNP patients and controls using reverse transcriptase quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and Western blotting. Then, their potential role in the epithelial barrier was evaluated in vitro in 27 different primary cultures of human nasal epithelial cells (HNECs) by measuring TJ expression and transepithelial electric resistance (TEER) with or without OSM or IL-6 (1, 10, and 100 ng/mL). The effect on ciliary beating efficiency was evaluated by high-speed videomicroscopy and on repair mechanisms with a wound healing model with or without OSM. OSM and IL-6 were both overexpressed, and TJ (ZO-1 and occludin) expression was decreased in the nasal polyps compared to the control mucosa. OSM (100 ng/mL) but not IL-6 induced a significant decrease in TJ expression, TEER, and ciliary beating efficiency in HNECs. After 24 h, the wound repair rate was significantly higher in OSM-stimulated HNECs at 100 ng/mL. These results suggest that OSM could become a new target for monoclonal antibodies.

Oncostatin M Receptor Type II Knockout Mitigates Inflammation and Improves Survival from Sepsis in Mice. Biomedicines 2023; 11:biomedicines11020483.

Abstract
Sepsis remains one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Oncostatin M (OSM), an interleukin (IL)-6 family cytokine, can be found at high levels in septic patients. However, little is known about its role in sepsis. This study aimed to determine if the genetic knockout of OSM receptor (OSMR) type II signaling would improve survival in a murine model of sepsis. Aged (>50 weeks) OSMR type II knockout (KO) mice and wild-type (WT) littermates received an intraperitoneal injection of fecal slurry (FS) or vehicle. The KO mice had better survival 48 h after the injection of FS than the WT mice (p = 0.005). Eighteen hours post-FS injection, the KO mice had reduced peritoneal, serum, and tissue cytokine levels (including IL-1β, IL-6, TNFα, KG/GRO, and IL-10) compared to the WT mice (p < 0.001 for all). Flow cytometry revealed decreased recruitment of CD11b+ F4/80+ Ly6chigh+ macrophages in the peritoneum of KO mice compared to WT mice (34 ± 6 vs. 4 ± 3%, PInt = 0.005). Isolated peritoneal macrophages from aged KO mice had better live E. coli killing capacity than those from WT mice (p < 0.001). Peritoneal lavage revealed greater bacterial counts in KO mice than in WT mice (KO: 305 ± 22 vs. 116 ± 6 CFU (×109)/mL; p < 0.001). In summary, deficiency in OSMR type II receptor signaling provided a survival benefit in the progression of sepsis. This coincided with reduced serum levels of pro-inflammatory (IL-1β, TNFα, and KC/GRO) and anti-inflammatory markers (IL-10), increased bacterial killing ability of macrophages, and reduced macrophage infiltration into to site of infection.

Abstract
Recent studies have suggested a role for N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification in neurological diseases. Hypothermia, a commonly used treatment for traumatic brain injury, plays a neuroprotective role by altering m6A modifications. In this study, methylated RNA immunoprecipitation sequencing (MeRIP-Seq) was applied to conduct a genome-wide analysis of RNA m6A methylation in the rat hippocampus of Sham and traumatic brain injury (TBI) groups. In addition, we identified the expression of mRNA in the rat hippocampus after TBI with hypothermia treatment. Compared with the Sham group, the sequencing results of the TBI group showed that 951 different m6A peaks and 1226 differentially expressed mRNAs were found. We performed cross-linking analysis of the data of the two groups. The result showed that 92 hyper-methylated genes were upregulated, 13 hyper-methylated genes were downregulated, 25 hypo-methylated genes were upregulated, and 10 hypo-methylated genes were downregulated. Moreover, a total of 758 differential peaks were identified between TBI and hypothermia treatment groups. Among these differential peaks, 173 peaks were altered by TBI and reversed by hypothermia treatment, including Plat, Pdcd5, Rnd3, Sirt1, Plaur, Runx1, Ccr1, Marveld1, Lmnb2, and Chd7. We found that hypothermia treatment transformed some aspects of the TBI-induced m6A methylation landscape of the rat hippocampus.

Activation of OSM-STAT3 Epigenetically Regulates Tumor-Promoting Transcriptional Programs in Cervical Cancer. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14246090.

Abstract
Despite improvements in preventative strategies, such as regular screenings with Pap tests and human papillomavirus (HPV) tests as well as HPV vaccinations, effective treatment for advanced cervical cancer remains poor. Deregulation of STAT3 is an oncogenic factor that promotes tumorigenesis and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in various cancers. Oncostatin M (OSM), a pleiotropic cytokine, induces STAT3 activation, exacerbating cervical cancer. However, the mechanism by which the OSM-STAT3 axis epigenetically regulates tumor-progression-related genes in cervical cancer is not well understood. Here, we show that OSM-mediated STAT3 activation promotes pro-tumorigenic gene expression programs, with chromatin remodeling in cervical cancer. Reanalysis of scRNA-seq data performed in cervical cancer uncovered an interaction between the oncostatin M receptor (OSMR) on tumor cells and OSM induced by tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs). Our gene expression profiling (bulk RNA-seq) shows that OSM-induced genes were involved in hypoxia, wound healing, and angiogenesis, which were significantly inhibited by SD-36, a STAT3-selective degrader. Additionally, ATAC-seq experiments revealed that STAT3 binding motifs were preferentially enriched in open chromatin regions of the OSM-STAT3-regulated genes. Among the 50 candidate genes that were regulated epigenetically through the OSM-STAT3 axis, we found that the expression levels of NDRG1, HK2, PLOD2, and NPC1 were significantly correlated with those of OSMR and STAT3 in three independent cervical cancer cohorts. Also, higher expression levels of these genes are significantly associated with poor prognosis in cervical cancer patients. Collectively, our findings demonstrate that the OSM-STAT3 signaling pathway regulates crucial transcriptomic programs through epigenetic changes and that selective inhibition of STAT3 may be a novel therapeutic strategy for patients with advanced cervical cancer.

Abstract
Primary liver cancers represent the third-most-common cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide, with an incidence of 80–90% for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and 10–15% for cholangiocarcinoma (CCA), and an increasing morbidity and mortality rate. Although HCC and CCA originate from independent cell populations (hepatocytes and biliary epithelial cells, respectively), they develop in chronically inflamed livers. Evidence obtained in the last decade has revealed a role for cytokines of the IL-6 family in the development of primary liver cancers. These cytokines operate through the receptor subunit gp130 and the downstream Janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK/STAT) signaling pathways. Oncostatin M (OSM), a member of the IL-6 family, plays a significant role in inflammation, autoimmunity, and cancer, including liver tumors. Although, in recent years, therapeutic approaches for the treatment of HCC and CCA have been implemented, limited treatment options with marginal clinical benefits are available. We discuss how OSM-related pathways can be selectively inhibited and therapeutically exploited for the treatment of liver malignancies.

Abstract
SERine Protease INhibitor clade A member 3 (SERPINA3), a member of the SERine-Protease INhibitor (SERPIN) superfamily, principally works as a protease inhibitor in maintaining cellular homeostasis. It is a matricellular acute-phase glycoprotein that appears to be the sole nuclear-binding secretory serpin. Several studies have emerged in recent years demonstrating its link to cancer and disease biology. SERPINA3 seems to have cancer- and compartment-specific biological functions, acting either as a tumour promoter or suppressor in different cancers. However, the localization, mechanism of action and the effectors of SERPINA3 in physiological and pathological scenarios remain obscure. Our review aims to consolidate the current evidence of SERPINA3 in various cancers, highlighting its association with the cancer hallmarks and ratifying its status as an emerging cancer biomarker. The elucidation of SERPINA3-mediated cancer progression and its targeting might shed light on the realm of cancer therapeutics.

Abstract
The IL-6 cytokine family is a group of signaling molecules with wide expression and function across vertebrates. Each member of the family signals by binding to its specific receptor and at least one molecule of gp130, which is the common transmembrane receptor subunit for the whole group. Signal transduction upon stimulation of the receptor complex results in the activation of multiple downstream cascades, among which, in mammary cells, the JAK-STAT3 pathway plays a central role. In this review, we summarize the role of the IL-6 cytokine family—specifically IL-6 itself, LIF, OSM, and IL-11—as relevant players during breast cancer progression. We have compiled evidence indicating that this group of soluble factors may be used for early and more precise breast cancer diagnosis and to design targeted therapy to treat or even prevent metastasis development, particularly to the bone. Expression profiles and possible therapeutic use of their specific receptors in the different breast cancer subtypes are also described. In addition, participation of these cytokines in pathologies of the breast linked to lactation and involution of the gland, as post-partum breast cancer and mastitis, is discussed.

Abstract
Oncostatin M (OSM) is a pleiotropic cytokine of the interleukin (IL)‐6 family that contributes to the progression of chronic liver disease. Here we investigated the role of OSM in the development and progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)/non‐alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). The role of OSM was investigated in (1) selected cohorts of NAFLD/NASH HCC patients, (2) liver cancer cells exposed to human recombinant OSM or stably transfected to overexpress human OSM, (3) murine HCC xenografts, and (4) a murine NASH‐related model of hepatic carcinogenesis. OSM was found to be selectively overexpressed in HCC cells of NAFLD/NASH patients, depending on tumor grade. OSM serum levels, barely detectable in patients with simple steatosis or NASH, were increased in patients with cirrhosis and more evident in those carrying HCC. In this latter group, OSM serum levels were significantly higher in the subjects with intermediate/advanced HCCs and correlated with poor survival. Cell culture experiments indicated that OSM upregulation in hepatic cancer cells contributes to HCC progression by inducing epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition and increased invasiveness of cancer cells as well as by inducing angiogenesis, which is of critical relevance. In murine xenografts, OSM overexpression was associated with slower tumor growth but an increased rate of lung metastases. Overexpression of OSM and its positive correlation with the angiogenic switch were also confirmed in a murine model of NAFLD/NASH‐related hepatocarcinogenesis. Consistent with this, analysis of liver specimens from human NASH‐related HCCs with vascular invasion showed that OSM was expressed by liver cancer cells invading hepatic vessels. In conclusion, OSM upregulation appears to be a specific feature of HCC arising on a NAFLD/NASH background, and it correlates with clinical parameters and disease outcome. Our data highlight a novel pro‐carcinogenic contribution for OSM in NAFLD/NASH, suggesting a role of this factor as a prognostic marker and a putative potential target for therapy. © 2022 The Authors.

Abstract
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a classic autoimmune disease characterized by uncontrolled synovial proliferation, pannus formation, cartilage injury, and bone destruction. The specific pathogenesis of RA, a chronic inflammatory disease, remains unclear. However, both key glycolysis rate-limiting enzymes, hexokinase-II (HK-II), phosphofructokinase-1 (PFK-1), and pyruvate kinase M2 (PKM2), as well as indirect rate-limiting enzymes, 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase 3 (PFKFB3), are thought to participate in the pathogenesis of RA. In here, we review the latest literature on the pathogenesis of RA, introduce the pathophysiological characteristics of HK-II, PFK-1/PFKFB3, and PKM2 and their expression characteristics in this autoimmune disease, and systematically assess the association between the glycolytic rate-limiting enzymes and RA from a molecular level. Moreover, we highlight HK-II, PFK-1/PFKFB3, and PKM2 as potential targets for the clinical treatment of RA. There is great potential to develop new anti-rheumatic therapies through safe inhibition or overexpression of glycolysis rate-limiting enzymes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hundreds of adipokines have been identified, and their extensive range of endocrine functions-regulating distant organs such as oral tissues-and local autocrine/paracrine roles have been studied. In dentistry, however, adipokines are poorly known proteins in the dental pulp; few of them have been studied despite their large number. This study reviews recent advances in the investigation of dental-pulp adipokines, with an emphasis on their roles in inflammatory processes and their potential therapeutic applications. HIGHLIGHTS The most recently identified adipokines in dental pulp include leptin, adiponectin, resistin, ghrelin, oncostatin, chemerin, and visfatin. They have numerous physiological and pathological functions in the pulp tissue: they are closely related to pulp inflammatory mechanisms and actively participate in cell differentiation, mineralization, angiogenesis, and immune-system modulation. CONCLUSION Adipokines have potential clinical applications in regenerative endodontics and as biomarkers or targets for the pharmacological management of inflammatory and degenerative processes in dental pulp. A promising direction for the development of new therapies may be the use of agonists/antagonists to modulate the expression of the most studied adipokines.

Oncostatin M stimulates immature Leydig cell proliferation but inhibits its maturation and function in rats through JAK1/STAT3 signaling and induction of oxidative stress in vitro.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Oncostatin M (OSM) is a member of the interleukin-6 group of cytokines, which can regulate cell proliferation, growth, and function. Immature Leydig cells have the ability to proliferate and differentiate, and adult Leydig cells have the function of testosterone synthesis. However, the role and underlying mechanisms of OSM on the proliferation and function of Leydig cells remain unclear. METHODS The effects of OSM on the proliferation, apoptosis, and function of immature Leydig cells isolated from 35-day-old rats and the function of adult Leydig cells isolated from 63-day-old rats in vitro. RESULTS OSM stimulated immature Leydig cell proliferation after up-regulating the expression of Ccnd1 and Cdk4 to drive the transition of G1 phase to M2 phase in the cell cycle at 10 and 100 ng/ml. OSM did not affect the apoptosis of immature Leydig cells up to 100 ng/ml. OSM inhibited testosterone production in immature and adult Leydig cells by down-regulating the expression of Lhcgr, Star, Cyp11a1, Hsd3b1, and Cyp17a1 at 1-100 ng/ml. OSM induced reactive oxygen species and down-regulated the expression of antioxidant genes and lowered mitochondrial membrane potential at 10 and 100 ng/ml in both Leydig cells. Janus kinase 1 (JAK1) antagonist filgotinib and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) antagonist S3I-201 reversed the effect of OSM, indicating that it acts on JAK1/STAT3 signaling. CONCLUSION Oncostatin M stimulates immature Leydig cell proliferation while inhibiting the function of immature and adult Leydig cells.

Abstract
While patients with advanced ovarian cancer may respond initially to treatment, disease relapse is common and nearly 50% of patients do not survive beyond five years, indicating an urgent need for improved therapies. To identify new therapeutic targets, we performed single cell and nuclear RNA-seq dataset analyses on 17 human ovarian cancer specimens, revealing the oncostatin M receptor (OSMR) as highly expressed in ovarian cancer cells. Conversely, oncostatin M (OSM), the ligand of OSMR, was highly expressed by tumor-associated macrophages and promoted proliferation and metastasis in cancer cells. Ovarian cancer cell lines and additional patient samples also exhibited elevated levels of OSMR when compared to other cell types in the tumor microenvironment or to normal ovarian tissue samples. OSMR was found to be important for ovarian cancer cell proliferation and migration. Binding of OSM to OSMR caused OSMR-IL6ST dimerization, which is required to produce oncogenic signaling cues for prolonged STAT3 activation. Human monoclonal antibody clones B14 and B21 directed to the extracellular domain of OSMR abrogated OSM-induced OSMR-IL6ST heterodimerization, promoted the internalization and degradation of OSMR, and effectively blocked OSMR-mediated signaling in vitro. Importantly, these antibody clones inhibited the growth of ovarian cancer cells in vitro and in vivo by suppressing oncogenic signaling through OSMR and STAT3 activation. Collectively, this study provides a proof of principle that anti-OSMR antibody can mediate disruption of OSM-induced OSMR-IL6ST dimerization and oncogenic signaling, thus documenting the pre-clinical therapeutic efficacy of human OSMR antagonist antibodies for immunotherapy in ovarian cancer.

Abstract
Our previous study indicated knockout of receptor for advanced glycation end-products (RAGE) significantly attenuated cigarette smoke (CS)-induced airway inflammation in mice. In the present study, we aim to further detect the mediatory effects of RAGE in DNA methylated modification in CS-induced airway inflammation. Lung tissues from the CS-exposed mouse model of airway inflammation were collected for profiling of DNA methylation by liquid hybridization capture-based bisulfite sequencing, which were used for conjoint analysis with our previous data of gene expression by cDNA microarray to identify functional methylated genes, as well as hub genes selected by protein-protein interaction (PPI) network analysis, and functional enrichment analyses were then performed. After RAGE knockout, 90 genes were identified by intersection of the differentially methylated genes and differentially expressed genes. According to the reversed effects of methylation in promoters on gene transcription, 14 genes with functional methylated modification were further identified, among which chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 1 (CXCL1), Toll-like receptor 6 (TLR6) and oncostatin M (OSM) with hypomethylation in promoters, were selected as the hub genes by PPI network analysis. Moreover, functional enrichment analyses showed the 14 functional methylated genes, including the 3 hub genes, were mainly enriched in immune-inflammatory responses, especially mitogen-activated protein kinase, tumor necrosis factor, TLRs, interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-17 pathways. The present study suggests that RAGE mediates functional DNA methylated modification in a cluster of 14 targeted genes, particularly hypomethylation in promoters of CXCL1, TLR6 and OSM, which might significantly contribute to CS-induced airway inflammation via a network of signaling pathways.

Abstract
Liver fibrosis is a potentially reversible pathophysiological event, leading to excess deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM) components and taking place as the net result of liver fibrogenesis, a dynamic and highly integrated process occurring during chronic liver injury of any etiology. Liver fibrogenesis and fibrosis, together with chronic inflammatory response, are primarily involved in the progression of chronic liver diseases (CLD). As is well known, a major role in fibrogenesis and fibrosis is played by activated myofibroblasts (MFs), as well as by macrophages and other hepatic cell populations involved in CLD progression. In the present review, we will focus the attention on the emerging pathogenic role of hypoxia, hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs) and related mediators in the fibrogenic progression of CLD.

Abstract
Several cytokines involved in inflammatory pathologies signal via the Janus kinase-signal transducer and activator of transcription pathway. Four JAKs are known: JAK1, JAK2, JAK3 and TYK2. The specific activation of JAKs and STATs determines the biological effects of each cytokine. JAK1 is involved in the signalling of 'γc' receptor cytokines (IL-2, IL-4, IL-7, IL-9, IL-15 and IL-21), pro-inflammatory cytokines including IL-6, as well as IFN. The critical position of JAK1 downstream of these cytokines suggests that JAK1-selective inhibitors are comparable to non-selective ones, without the unwanted consequences of JAK2- or JAK3-blockade. JAK inhibition has led to a better understanding of the biology of synovial inflammation and bone homeostasis. Moreover, the efficacy of non-selective JAK inhibitors and novel JAK1-selective drugs in RA supports a role for JAK1 in its pathogenesis. JAK1-selective drugs are also showing promise in axial spondyloarthritis, suggesting that they may target additional regulatory pathways that impact cytokines such as TNF and IL-17A, which do not use JAKs. Additionally, evidence now supports a JAK1 predominance in the signalling of IL-6 and oncostatin M, and indirectly, of TNF in synovial fibroblasts, macrophages and endothelial cells. Notably, bone homeostasis is also dependent on cytokines relying on JAK1 signalling to promote receptor activator of NF-κB ligand expression in osteoblasts and T cells, contributing to osteoclastogenesis. Here, the contribution of JAK1 over other kinases is unclear. While beneficial effects of JAK inhibitors on bone erosion are supported by preclinical and clinical data, effects on new bone formation in axial spondyloarthritis requires additional study.

Common Variants Associated With OSMR Expression Contribute to Carotid Plaque Vulnerability, but Not to Cardiovascular Disease in Humans. Front Cardiovasc Med 2021; 8:658915. [PMID: 33959646 PMCID: PMC8093786 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2021.658915] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/26/2021] [Accepted: 03/09/2021] [Indexed: 01/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Background and Aims: Oncostatin M (OSM) signaling is implicated in atherosclerosis, however the mechanism remains unclear. We investigated the impact of common genetic variants in OSM and its receptors, OSMR and LIFR, on overall plaque vulnerability, plaque phenotype, intraplaque OSMR and LIFR expression, coronary artery calcification burden and cardiovascular disease susceptibility. Methods and Results: We queried Genotype-Tissue Expression data and found that rs13168867 (C allele) was associated with decreased OSMR expression and that rs10491509 (A allele) was associated with increased LIFR expression in arterial tissues. No variant was significantly associated with OSM expression. We associated these two variants with plaque characteristics from 1,443 genotyped carotid endarterectomy patients in the Athero-Express Biobank Study. After correction for multiple testing, rs13168867 was significantly associated with an increased overall plaque vulnerability (β = 0.118 ± s.e. = 0.040, p = 3.00 × 10-3, C allele). Looking at individual plaque characteristics, rs13168867 showed strongest associations with intraplaque fat (β = 0.248 ± s.e. = 0.088, p = 4.66 × 10-3, C allele) and collagen content (β = -0.259 ± s.e. = 0.095, p = 6.22 × 10-3, C allele), but these associations were not significant after correction for multiple testing. rs13168867 was not associated with intraplaque OSMR expression. Neither was intraplaque OSMR expression associated with plaque vulnerability and no known OSMR eQTLs were associated with coronary artery calcification burden, or cardiovascular disease susceptibility. No associations were found for rs10491509 in the LIFR locus. Conclusions: Our study suggests that rs1316887 in the OSMR locus is associated with increased plaque vulnerability, but not with coronary calcification or cardiovascular disease risk. It remains unclear through which precise biological mechanisms OSM signaling exerts its effects on plaque morphology. However, the OSM-OSMR/LIFR pathway is unlikely to be causally involved in lifetime cardiovascular disease susceptibility.

Abstract
Helicobacter pylori, a human pathogen that colonizes the stomach of 50% of the world's population, is associated with gastritis, gastric adenocarcinoma, and mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma. Diseases are characterized by severe inflammatory responses in the stomach that are induced by various chemokines and cytokines. Recently, oncostatin M (OSM), an IL-6 family cytokine, was detected in early gastric cancer biopsies. In this study, we showed that Helicobacter pylori induced secretion of OSM and overexpression of its type II receptor OSMRβ (OSM/OSMRβ) in a human gastric adenocarcinoma cell line (AGS) over 24 h of infection. Furthermore, we showed that the induction of OSM and OSMRβ was carried out by heat-sensitive Helicobacter pylori outer membrane vesicle (OMV) protein. Collectively, our results established, for the first time, a direct relation between Helicobacter pylori OMVs and the OSM/OSMRβ signaling axis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Extracellular vesicles, released by cell pullulation, are surrounded by a phospholipid bilayer and carry proteins as well and genetic material. It has been shown that extracellular vesicles mediate intercellular communication in several conditions, such as inflammation, immunodeficiency, tumor growth, and viral infections. Here, we analyzed circulating levels of extracellular vesicles in order to clarify their role in chronic inflammation mechanisms characterizing HIV patients. METHODS We analyzed and subtyped circulating levels of extracellular vesicles, through a recently developed flow cytometry method. In detail, endothelial-derived extracellular vesicles (CD31+/CD41a-/CD45-, EMVs), extracellular vesicles stemming from leukocytes (CD45+, LMVs) and platelets (CD41a+/CD31+) were identified and enumerated. Moreover, we analyzed the extracellular vesicle protein cargo with proteomic analysis. RESULTS Circulating levels of total extracellular vesicles, EMVs and LMVs were significantly lower in the HIV+ patients than in healthy subjects, whereas platelet-derived extracellular vesicles resulted higher in patients than in the healthy population. Proteomic analysis showed the upregulation of gammaIFN and IL1α, and down-regulation of OSM, NF-kB, LIF, and RXRA signaling resulted activated in this patients. CONCLUSION These data demonstrate, for the first time that HIV infection induces the production of extracellular vesicles containing mediators that possibly feed the chronic inflammation and the viral replication. These two effects are connected as the inflammation itself induces the viral replication. We, therefore, hypothesize that HIV infection inhibits the production of extracellular vesicles that carry anti-inflammatory molecules.

Neurogenic Heterotopic Ossifications Recapitulate Hematopoietic Stem Cell Niche Development Within an Adult Osteogenic Muscle Environment. Front Cell Dev Biol 2021; 9:611842.

Abstract
Hematopoiesis and bone interact in various developmental and pathological processes. Neurogenic heterotopic ossifications (NHO) are the formation of ectopic hematopoietic bones in peri-articular muscles that develop following severe lesions of the central nervous system such as traumatic cerebral or spinal injuries or strokes. This review will focus on the hematopoietic facet of NHO. The characterization of NHO demonstrates the presence of hematopoietic marrow in which quiescent hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) are maintained by a functional stromal microenvironment, thus documenting that NHOs are neo-formed ectopic HSC niches. Similarly to adult bone marrow, the NHO permissive environment supports HSC maintenance, proliferation and differentiation through bidirectional signaling with mesenchymal stromal cells and endothelial cells, involving cell adhesion molecules, membrane-bound growth factors, hormones, and secreted matrix proteins. The participation of the nervous system, macrophages and inflammatory cytokines including oncostatin M and transforming growth factor (TGF)-β in this process, reveals how neural circuitry fine-tunes the inflammatory response to generate hematopoietic bones in injured muscles. The localization of NHOs in the peri-articular muscle environment also suggests a role of muscle mesenchymal cells and bone metabolism in development of hematopoiesis in adults. Little is known about the establishment of bone marrow niches and the regulation of HSC cycling during fetal development. Similarities between NHO and development of fetal bones make NHOs an interesting model to study the establishment of bone marrow hematopoiesis during development. Conversely, identification of stage-specific factors that specify HSC developmental state during fetal bone development will give more mechanistic insights into NHO.

Abstract
PURPOSE Vernal keratoconjunctivitis (VKC) is a severe and recurrent allergic conjunctivitis, the mechanism of which is not well understood. In this study, we investigated the role of oncostatin M (OSM) in the pathogenesis of VKC, with a focus on tissue remodeling. STUDY DESIGN Clinical and experimental. PATIENTS AND METHODS The OSM concentrations in tear fluid samples obtained from VKC patients and healthy controls were measured using ELISA, and the expression of OSM mRNA and protein in giant papillae resected from VKC patients was investigated using RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry, respectively. In cultured human conjunctival epithelial cells (HconEpiCs), expression of OSM receptor β (OSMRβ) was detected using immunocytochemical and FACS analyses. Finally, we investigated whether recombinant OSM activated STAT1 and STAT3 to induce the expression of various genes related to tissue remodeling in HconEpiCs, by using Western blot analysis, microarray analysis, and RT-PCR. RESULTS The OSM concentration was higher in the tear fluid of VKC patients than in that of the healthy controls, and strong expression of OSM mRNA was found in the giant papillae. We also detected T cells expressing OSM in the giant papillae. In addition, HconEpiCs showed surface expression of OSMRβ. Recombinant human OSM strongly activated both STAT1 and STAT3 in HconEpiCs and induced various tissue remodeling-related genes, including MMP-1, MMP-3, IL-24, IL-20, serpinB3, S100A7, tenascin C, and SOCS3. CONCLUSION Our results suggest that OSM is one of the key molecules involved in remodeling of giant papillae in VKC.

Abstract
Oncostatin M (OSM), as a member of the Interleukin-6 family cytokines, plays a significant role in inflammation, autoimmunity, and cancers. It is mainly secreted by T lymphocytes, neutrophils, and macrophages and was initially introduced as anti-cancer agent. However, in some cases, it promotes cancer progression. Overexpression of OSM and OSM receptor has been detected in various cancers including colon cancer, breast cancer, pancreatic cancer, myeloma, brain tumors, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and hepatoblastoma. STAT3 is the main downstream signaling molecule of OSM, which operates the leading role in modifications of cancer cells and enhancing cell growth, invasion, survival, and all other hallmarks of cancer cells. However, due to the presence of multiple signaling pathways, it can act contradictory in some cancers. In this review, we will discuss the emerging roles of OSM in cancer and elucidate its function in tumor control or progression and finally discuss therapeutic approaches designed to manipulate this cytokine in cancer.

Abstract
Supernumerary tooth (ST) may arise from uncertain developmental abnormalities or underlying genetic causes, and the extraction at the early age is recommended. Dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) are the valuable resource for the regeneration of tooth and related craniofacial structures. DPSCs isolated from ST (sDPSCs) have not been fully characterized despite the potential in the applications. The objectives of this study are the efficient isolation of sDPSCs and the analysis of the properties as stem cells. sDPSCs were established by hammer-cracking and separation of the intact pulp from ST. sDPSCs in the culture were examined by light microscope and flow cytometer for the morphology and the surface marker expression. sDPSCs exhibited the cellular morphology of typical mesenchymal stem cells and expressed CD44, CD73, CD90, CD105 and CD166, but not CD14, CD34 or CD45. sDPSCs showed the differentiation potential toward osteogenic, chondrogenic and adipogenic lineages. During osteogenic differentiation, the stimulation by Oncostatin M enhanced the differentiation and significantly increased the expression of genes involved in the hard tissue repair, such as BMP2, BMP4, BMP6 and RUNX2. sDPSCs can be effectively derived from ST and displays the characteristics of mesenchymal stem cells in the maintenance and the differentiation. sDPSCs satisfies the quality as DPSCs thus provide the valuable resource to the regenerative therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Anti-IgE (omalizumab) has been used for the treatment of moderate-to-severe asthma that is not controlled by inhaled steroids. Despite its success, it does not always provide patients with significant clinical benefits. OBJECTIVE To investigate the transcriptional variations between omalizumab responders and non-responders and to study the mechanisms of action of omalizumab. METHODS The whole blood transcriptomes of moderate-to-severe adult asthma patients (N = 45:34 responders and 11 non-responders) were analysed over the course of omalizumab treatment. Non-asthmatic healthy controls (N = 17) were used as controls. RESULTS Transcriptome variations between responders and non-responders were identified using the genes significant (FDR < 0.05) in at least one comparison of each patient response status and time point compared with control subjects. Using gene ontology and network analysis, eight clusters of genes were identified. Longitudinal analyses of individual clusters revealed that responders could maintain changes induced with omalizumab treatment and become more similar to the control subjects, while non-responders tend to remain more similar to their pre-treatment baseline. Further analysis of an inflammatory gene cluster revealed that genes associated with neutrophil/eosinophil activities were up-regulated in non-responders and, more importantly, omalizumab did not significantly alter their expression levels. The application of modular analysis supported our findings and further revealed variations between responders and non-responders. CONCLUSION AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE This study provides not only transcriptional variations between omalizumab responders and non-responders, but also molecular insights for controlling asthma by omalizumab.

Abstract
Resistin-like molecule alpha (RELMα) and YM-1 are secreted proteins implicated in murine models of alternatively activated macrophage (AA/M2) accumulation and Th2-skewed inflammation. Since the gp130 cytokine Oncostatin M (OSM) induces a Th2-like cytokine and AA/M2 skewed inflammation in mouse lung, we here investigated regulation of RELMα and YM-1. Transient pulmonary overexpression of OSM by Adenovirus vector (AdOSM) markedly induced RELMα and YM-1 protein expression in total lung. In situ hybridization showed that RELMα mRNA was highly induced in airway epithelial cells (AEC) and was co-expressed with CD68 mRNA in some but not all CD68+ cells in parenchyma. IL-6 overexpression (a comparator gp130 cytokine) induced RELMα, but at significantly lower levels. IL-6 (assessing IL-6-/- mice) was not required, nor was STAT6 (IL-4/13 canonical signalling) for AdOSM-induction of RELMα in AEC. AEC responded directly to OSM in vitro as assessed by pSTAT3 activation. RELMα-deficient mice showed similar inflammatory cell infiltration and cytokine responses to wt in response to AdOSM, but showed less accumulation of CD206+ AA/M2 macrophages, reduced induction of extracellular matrix gene mRNAs for COL1A1, COL3A1, MMP13, and TIMP1, and reduced parenchymal alpha smooth muscle actin. Thus, RELMα is regulated by OSM in AEC and contributes to extracellular matrix remodelling in mouse lung.

Abstract
The capability to produce and maintain functional human adult hepatocytes remains one of the major challenges for the use of in-vitro models toward liver cell therapy and industrial drug-screening applications. Among the suggested strategies to solve this issue, the use of human-induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs), differentiated toward hepatocyte-like cells (HLCs) is promising. In this work, we propose a 31-day long protocol, that includes a final 14-day long phase of oncostatin treatment, as opposed to a 7-day treatment which led to the formation of a hepatic tissue functional for CYP1A2, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2D6, and CYP3A4. The production of albumin, as well as bile acid metabolism and transport, were also detected. Transcriptome profile comparisons and liver transcription factors (TFs) motif dynamics revealed increased expression of typical hepatic markers such as HNF1A and of important metabolic markers like PPARA. The performed analysis has allowed for the extraction of potential targets and pathways which would allow enhanced hepatic maturation in-vitro. From this investigation, NRF1 and SP3 appeared as transcription factors of importance. Complex epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and mesenchymal-epithelial transition (MET) patterns were also observed during the differentiation process. Moreover, whole transcriptome analysis highlighted a response typical of the one observed in liver regeneration and hepatocyte proliferation. While a complete maturation of hepatocytes was yet to be obtained, the results presented in this work provide new insights into the process of liver development and highlight potential targets aimed to improve in-vitro liver regeneration.

Abstract
Background: Acute intestinal ischemia-reperfusion injury (AIIRI) is a devastating clinical condition relevant to multiple diseases processes, including sepsis, trauma, transplantation, and burns. An AIIRI is a contributor to the development of multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS). Oncostatin M (OSM)/oncostatin M receptor (OSMR) signaling is an unrecognized and novel candidate pathway for the mediation of MODS. In this study, we hypothesized that OSM mediates the injury mechanism of AIIRI leading to MODS. Methods: Wild-type (WT) and OSMR-knockout (OSMR-/-) C57BL/6 mice underwent AIIRI using a well-established model of selective occlusion of the superior mesenteric artery (SMA). Serum cytokine concentrations were measured using a multiplex detection system. Further tissue analysis was conducted with polymerase chain reaction, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, Western blots, and histologic review. Results: Survival was significantly higher in WT than in OSMR-/- groups at 30 minutes of ischemia with 2 hours of reperfusion (100% versus 42.9%; P = 0.015). No significant differences in the degree of local intestinal injury was seen in the two groups. In contrast, the degree of lung injury, as evidenced by myeloperixodase activity, was lower in OSMR-/- animals in the early AIIRI groups. There was a greater degree of renal dysfunction in OSMR-/- mice. Oncostatin M mediated interleukin (IL)-10 upregulation, with WT animals having significantly lower IL-10 concentrations (52.04 ± 23.06 pg/mL versus 324.37 ± 140.35 pg/mL; P = 0.046). Conclusion: Oncostatin M signalling is essential during acute intestinal ischemia-reperfusion injury. An OSMR deficiency results in decreased early lung injury but increased renal dysfunction. There was a significantly increased mortality rate after AIIRI in mice with OSMR deficiency. Augmentation of OSM may be a novel immunomodulatory strategy for AIIRI.

Abstract
Promyelocytic leukemia (PML) gene, through alternative splicing of its C-terminal region, generates several PML isoforms that interact with specific partners and perform distinct functions. The PML protein is a tumor suppressor that plays an important role by interacting with various proteins. Herein, we investigated the effect of the PML isoforms on oncostatin M (OSM)-induced signal transducer and activator of transcription-3 (STAT-3) transcriptional activity. PML influenced OSM-induced STAT-3 activity in a cell type-specific manner, which was dependent on the p53 status of the cells but regardless of PML isoform. Interestingly, overexpression of PML exerted opposite effects on OSM-induced STAT-3 activity in p53 wild-type and mutant cells. Specifically, overexpression of PML in the cell lines bearing wild-type p53 (NIH3T3 and U87-MG cells) decreased OSM-induced STAT-3 transcriptional activity, whereas overexpression of PML increased OSM-induced STAT-3 transcriptional activity in mutant p53-bearing cell lines (HEK293T and U251-MG cells). When wild-type p53 cells were co-transfected with PML-IV and R273H-p53 mutant, OSM-mediated STAT-3 transcriptional activity was significantly enhanced, compared to that of cells which were transfected with PML-IV alone; however, when cells bearing mutant p53 were co-transfected with PML-IV and wild-type p53, OSM-induced STAT-3 transcriptional activity was significantly decreased, compared to that of transfected cells with PML-IV alone. In conclusion, PML acts together with wild-type or mutant p53 and influences OSM-mediated STAT-3 activity in a negative or positive manner, resulting in the aberrant activation of STAT-3 in cancer cells bearing mutant p53 probably might occur through the interaction of mutant p53 with PML.

Abstract
Oncostatin M (OSM), as one of the gp130/IL-6 family of cytokines, interacts with receptor complexes that include the gp130 signaling molecule and OSM receptor β OSMRβ chain subunits. OSMRβ chains are expressed relatively highly across a broad array of connective tissue (CT) cells of the lung, such as fibroblasts, smooth muscle cells, and epithelial cells, thus enabling robust responses to OSM, compared to other gp130 cytokines, in the regulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling and inflammation. OSMRβ chain expression in lung monocyte/macrophage populations is low, whereas other receptor subunits, such as that for IL-6, are present, enabling responses to IL-6. OSM is produced by macrophages and neutrophils, but not CT cells, indicating a dichotomy of OSM roles in macrophage verses CT cells in lung inflammatory disease. ECM remodeling and inflammation are components of a number of chronic lung diseases that show elevated levels of OSM. OSM-induced products of CT cells, such as MCP-1, IL-6, and PGE2 can modulate macrophage function, including the expression of OSM itself, indicating feedback loops that characterize Macrophage and CT cell interaction.

Abstract
PURPOSE The current review shows evidence for the role of adipokines in breast cancer (BC) pathogenesis summarizing the mechanisms underlying the association between adipokines and breast malignancy. Special emphasis is given also on intriguing insights into the relationship between obesity and BC as well as on the role of novel adipokines in BC development. RECENT FINDINGS Recent evidence has underscored the role of the triad of obesity, insulin resistance, and adipokines in postmenopausal BC. Adipokines exert independent and joint effects on activation of major intracellular signal networks implicated in BC cell proliferation, growth, survival, invasion, and metastasis, particularly in the context of obesity, considered a systemic endocrine dysfunction characterized by chronic inflammation. To date, more than 10 adipokines have been linked to BC, and this catalog is continuously increasing. The majority of circulating adipokines, such as leptin, resistin, visfatin, apelin, lipocalin 2, osteopontin, and oncostatin M, is elevated in BC, while some adipokines such as adiponectin and irisin (adipo-myokine) are generally decreased in BC and considered protective against breast carcinogenesis. Further evidence from basic and translational research is necessary to delineate the ontological role of adipokines and their interplay in BC pathogenesis. More large-scale clinical and longitudinal studies are awaited to assess their clinical utility in BC prognosis and follow-up. Finally, novel more effective and safer adipokine-centered therapeutic strategies could pave the way for targeted oncotherapy.

Abstract
Human Oncostatin M (OSM), initially discovered as a tumour inhibitory factor secreted from U-937 cells, is a gp130 (IL-6/LIF) cytokine family member that exhibits pleiotropic effects in inflammation, haematopoiesis, skeletal tissue alteration, liver regeneration, cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. Cytoplasmic expression of OSM in Escherichia coli results in inclusion bodies, and complex solubilisation, refolding and purification is required to prepare bioactive protein. Herein, eight N-terminal fusion variants of OSM with hexahistidine (His6) tag and seven solubility-enhancing tags, including thioredoxin (Trx), small ubiquitin-related modifier (Sumo), glutathione S-transferase (GST), maltose-binding protein (MBP), N-utilisation substance protein A (Nusa), human protein disulphide isomerase (PDI) and the b‘a’ domain of PDI (PDIb‘a’), were tested for soluble OSM expression in E. coli. The His6-OSM plasmid was also introduced into genetically engineered Origami 2 and SHuffle strains to test expression of the protein. At 18 °C, MBP-tagged OSM was highly expressed and solubility was dramatically enhanced. In addition, His6-OSM was more highly expressed and soluble in Origami 2 and SHuffle strains than in BL21(DE3). MBP-OSM and His6-OSM were purified more than 95% with yields of 11.02 mg and 3.27 mg from a 500 mL culture. Protein identity was confirmed by mass spectroscopy, and bioactivity was demonstrated by in vitro inhibition of Th17 cell differentiation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Oncostatin M receptor (OSMR) is a member of the interleukin 6 (IL-6) receptor family that transduces signaling events of Oncostatin M (OSM). OSM-OSMR signaling plays a key role in inflammation and cancer progression. However, the role of OSM-OSMR in gastric cancer (GC) is still unknown. METHODS OSMR expression in GC was determined by real-time PCR (RT-PCR), immunohistochemistry (IHC) and Western blot. The effects of OSM-OSMR on GC cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in vitro and metastasis in vivo were examined. The pathways underlying OSM-OSMR signaling were explored by Western blot. Regulatory mechanism between SP1 and OSMR was explored in vitro. RESULTS OSMR was highly expressed in GC tissues and its expression level was closely associated with age, T stage, Lauren classification, lymph node metastasis, TNM stage and worse prognosis of patients with GC. Knockdown of OSMR expression in GC cells significantly inhibited cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and EMT in vitro, as well as tumorigenesis and peritoneal metastasis in vivo induced by OSM. These effects mediated by OSM-OSMR were dependent on the activation of STAT3/FAK/Src signaling. SP1 could bind to the promoter region of human OSMR gene from - 255 to - 246 bp, and transcriptionally regulated OSMR overexpression in GC cells. CONCLUSIONS OSM-OSMR contributes to GC progression through activating STAT3/FAK/Src signaling, and OSMR is transcriptionally activated by SP1.

Abstract
Background We hypothesized that elevations of plasma Oncostatin M (OSM) would be associated with infliximab nonresponse. Methods Plasma OSM was measured in Crohn disease patients pre-infliximab with biochemical response (>50% reduction in fecal calprotectin) as the primary outcome. Results The median OSM in biochemical responders was 86 (69-148) pg/mL compared with 166 (74-1766) pg/mL in nonresponders (P = 0.03). Plasma OSM > 143.5 pg/mL was 71% sensitive and 78% specific for biochemical nonresponse (area under the curve 0.71). Early biochemical nonremission was also associated with an elevated neutrophil CD64 expression (odds ratio 8.9, P = 0.011). Conclusions Elevated preinfliximab plasma OSM and nCD64 surface expression were both associated with poor biochemical outcomes.

Abstract
Frailty is an aging-associated syndrome resulting from diminished capacity to respond to stressors and is a significant risk factor for disability and mortality. Although frailty is usually studied in old age, it is present in mid-life. Given the increases in mortality statistics among middle-aged Americans, understanding molecular drivers of frailty in a younger, diverse cohort may facilitate identifying pathways for early intervention. We analyzed frailty-associated, genome-wide transcriptional changes in middle-aged blacks and whites. Next generation RNA sequencing was completed using total RNA from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (n = 16). We analyzed differential gene expression patterns and completed a parametric analysis of gene set enrichment (PAGE). Differential gene expression was validated using RT-qPCR (n = 52). We identified 5,082 genes differentially expressed with frailty. Frailty altered gene expression patterns and biological pathways differently in blacks and whites, including pathways related to inflammation and immunity. The validation study showed a significant two-way interaction between frailty, race, and expression of the cytokine IL1B and the transcription factor EGR1. The glucose transporter, SLC2A6, the neutrophil receptor, FCGR3B, and the accessory protein, C17orf56, were decreased with frailty. These results suggest that there may be demographic dependent, divergent biological pathways underlying frailty in middle-aged adults.

Abstract
Heat stress is an important issue in the global dairy industry. In tropical areas, an alternative to overcome heat stress is the use of crossbred animals or synthetic breeds, such as the Girolando. In this study, we performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) and post-GWAS analyses for heat stress in an experimental Gir × Holstein F2 population. Rectal temperature (RT) was measured in heat-stressed F2 animals, and the variation between 2 consecutive RT measurements (ΔRT) was used as the dependent variable. Illumina BovineSNP50v1 BeadChip (Illumina Inc., San Diego, CA) and single-SNP approach were used for GWAS. Post-GWAS analyses were performed by gene ontology terms enrichment and gene-transcription factor (TF) networks, generated from enriched TF. The breed origin of marker alleles in the F2 population was assigned using the breed of origin of alleles (BOA) approach. Heritability and repeatability estimates (± standard error) for ΔRT were 0.13 ± 0.08 and 0.29 ± 0.06, respectively. Association analysis revealed 6 SNP significantly associated with ΔRT. Genes involved with biological processes in response to heat stress effects (LIF, OSM, TXNRD2, and DGCR8) were identified as putative candidate genes. After performing the BOA approach, the 10% of F2 animals with the lowest breeding values for ΔRT were classified as low-ΔRT, and the 10% with the highest breeding values for ΔRT were classified as high-ΔRT. On average, 49.4% of low-ΔRT animals had 2 alleles from the Holstein breed (HH), and 39% had both alleles from the Gir breed (GG). In high-ΔRT animals, the average proportion of animals for HH and GG were 1.4 and 50.2%, respectively. This study allowed the identification of candidate genes for ΔRT in Gir × Holstein crossbred animals. According to the BOA approach, Holstein breed alleles could be associated with better response to heat stress effects, which could be explained by the fact that Holstein animals are more affected by heat stress than Gir animals and thus require a genetic architecture to defend the body from the deleterious effects of heat stress. Future studies can provide further knowledge to uncover the genetic architecture underlying heat stress in crossbred cattle.

Abstract
Oncostatin M (OSM) is a cytokine of the interleukin-6 family and plays a role in various disorders such as cancer and inflammatory diseases, which are often accompanied by skeletal muscle atrophy, or sarcopenia. However, the role of OSM in the regulation of skeletal muscle mass remains to be identified. In this study, we investigated the effect of OSM on C2C12 myotube formation in vitro. C2C12 myoblasts were induced to differentiate into myotubes for 3 days and then treated with OSM for 24 or 48 h. The diameter of differentiated C2C12 myotubes were reduced by 18.7% and 23.3% compared to control cells after treatment with OSM for 24 and 48 h, respectively. The expression levels of MyoD and myogenin were decreased, while those of atrogin-1, CCAAT/enhancer binding protein δ, and OSM receptor were increased in C2C12 myotubes treated with OSM for 24 h compared to control cells. Furthermore, the inhibitory effect of OSM on myotube formation was significantly attenuated by pretreatment with an inhibitor of signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) 3 or by knockdown of Stat3. Finally, the OSM-induced changes in the expression levels of MyoD, myogenin, and atrogin-1 were reversed by pretreatment with an inhibitor of STAT3 or by Stat3 knockdown in C2C12 myotubes. In conclusion, OSM induces C2C12 myotube atrophy by inhibiting myogenic differentiation and activating muscle degradation in a STAT3-dependent manner.

Abstract
Diabetes impairs the mobilization of hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs) from the bone marrow (BM), which can worsen the outcomes of HSPC transplantation and of diabetic complications. In this study, we examined the oncostatin M (OSM)-p66Shc pathway as a mechanistic link between HSPC mobilopathy and excessive myelopoiesis. We found that streptozotocin-induced diabetes in mice skewed hematopoiesis toward the myeloid lineage via hematopoietic-intrinsic p66Shc. The overexpression of Osm resulting from myelopoiesis prevented HSPC mobilization after granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) stimulation. The intimate link between myelopoiesis and impaired HSPC mobilization after G-CSF stimulation was confirmed in human diabetes. Using cross-transplantation experiments, we found that deletion of p66Shc in the hematopoietic or nonhematopoietic system partially rescued defective HSPC mobilization in diabetes. Additionally, p66Shc mediated the diabetes-induced BM microvasculature remodeling. Ubiquitous or hematopoietic restricted Osm deletion phenocopied p66Shc deletion in preventing diabetes-associated myelopoiesis and mobilopathy. Mechanistically, we discovered that OSM couples myelopoiesis to mobilopathy by inducing Cxcl12 in BM stromal cells via nonmitochondrial p66Shc. Altogether, these data indicate that cell-autonomous activation of the OSM-p66Shc pathway leads to diabetes-associated myelopoiesis, whereas its transcellular hematostromal activation links myelopoiesis to mobilopathy. Targeting the OSM-p66Shc pathway is a novel strategy to disconnect mobilopathy from myelopoiesis and restore normal HSPC mobilization.

Scand J Pain 2019; 19:235-244.

Abstract
Abstract
Background and aims
Recent research indicates a previously unknown low-grade systemic or neurogenic inflammation in groups of chronic pain (CP) patients. Low-grade inflammation may have an important role in symptoms that have previously not been well depicted: widespread pain, tiredness and cognitive dysfunctions frequently seen in severely impaired CP patients. This study aimed to investigate the plasma inflammatory profile in a group of very complex CP patients at baseline and at a 1-year follow-up after participation in a cognitive behavior therapy (CBT)-based multimodal pain rehabilitation program (PRP).
Methods
Blood samples were collected from 52 well-characterized CP patients. Age- and sex-matched healthy blood donors served as controls. The samples were analyzed with a multiple Proximal Extension Analysis allowing a simultaneous analysis of 92 inflammation-related proteins consisting mainly of cytokines, chemokines and growth-factors. At follow-up, 1-year after participation in the RPR samples from 28 patients were analyzed. The results were confirmed by a multi-array technology that allows quantitative estimation.
Results
Clear signs of increased inflammatory activity were detected in the CP patients. Accepting a false discovery rate (FDR) of 5%, there were significant differences in 43/92 inflammatory biomarkers compared with the controls. In three biomarkers (CXCL5, SIRT2, AXIN1) the expression levels were elevated more than eight times. One year after the PRP, with the patients serving as their own controls, a significant decrease in overall inflammatory activity was found.
Conclusions
Our results indicate that the most impaired CP patients suffer from low-grade chronic systemic inflammation not described earlier with this level of detail. The results may have implications for a better understanding of the cluster of co-morbid symptoms described as the “sickness-syndrome” and the wide-spread pain seen in this group of patients. The decrease in inflammatory biomarkers noted at the follow-up after participation in the PRP may reflect the positive effects obtained on somatic and psycho-social mechanisms involved in the inflammatory process by a rehabilitation program. Besides the PRP, no major changes in medication or lifestyle factors were implemented during the same period. To our knowledge, this is the first study reporting that a PRP may induce inflammatory-reducing effects. Further studies are needed to verify the objective findings in CP patients and address the question of causality that remains to be solved.
Implications
The findings offer a new insight into the complicated biological processes underlying CP. It may have implications for the understanding of symptoms collectively described as the “sickness-syndrome” – frequently seen in this group of patients. The lowering of cytokines after the participation in a PRP indicate a new way to evaluate this treatment; by measuring inflammatory biomarkers.

Abstract
Background Oncostatin M receptor (OSMR) represents a part of the interleukin-six (IL6) cytokine group that was discovered recently to be closely associated with cell’s growth and differentiation, inflammation, and enhancement of metastatic capacity. A comprehensive study suggests a close relationship between OSMR and papillary thyroid cancer, colorectal cancer, breast cancer, and other tumors. However, the relationship between OSMR and bladder cancer has yet to be determined. Methods Three hundred six patients (including 142 patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer and 164 patients with non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer) as well as 459 normal controls were included in this study. Two tag SNPs of OSMR, rs2278329, and rs2292016 were genotyped by TaqMan® SNP Genotyping Assay method and then the associations with bladder cancer were analyzed, as well as risk factors and prognosis. Results Patients with bladder cancer and controls did not differ significantly in terms of genotype frequencies and allele frequency distribution of rs2278329 (P = 0.77, OR = 0.97) and rs2292016 (P = 0.39, OR = 1.20) respectively. For rs2278329, no differences were found in terms of risk factors in stratified analyses. However, rs2292016 was associated with recurrence and tumor grade. GT/TT was found to increase the risk of relapse compared to the patients without allele T (GG genotype) (P = 0.016, OR = 1.878, 95% CI = 1.12–3.14) with the T allele of rs2292016 being a risk factor for recurrence (P = 0.032, OR = 0.67, 95% CI = 0.47–0.97). Besides, patients with GT genotype often present with high-grade bladder cancer (P = 0.003, OR = 2.33, 95% CI = 1.32–4.17). Multiple Cox regression analysis showed that rs2278329 and rs2292016 were related to the recurrence-free survival and overall survival in non muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) patients. For rs2278329, GA genotype could affect recurrence-free survival (P = 0.01, OR = 2.16, 95% CI = 1.17–3.98). For rs2292016, TT/GT genotype had a lower risk of death compared with GG homozygote genotype, and T was a protective factor for overall survival in bladder cancer (P = 0.029, OR = 0.22, 95% CI = 0.06–0.86). Conclusions OSMR genotype frequencies were found to be associated with higher recurrence in bladder cancer, and it may serve as a biomarker candidate gene to predict prognosis of this disease. Further validation of OSMR as biomarker is required.

Abstract
The accumulation of extracellular matrix in lung diseases involves numerous factors, including cytokines and chemokines that participate in cell activation in lung tissues and the circulation of fibrocytes that contribute to local fibrotic responses. The transient overexpression of the gp130 cytokine Oncostatin M can induce extracellular matrix (ECM) accumulation in mouse lungs, and here, we assess a role for IL-13 in this activity using gene deficient mice. The endotracheal administration of an adenovirus vector encoding Oncostatin M (AdOSM) caused increases in parenchymal lung collagen accumulation, neutrophil numbers, and CXCL1/KC chemokine elevation in bronchioalveolar lavage fluids. These effects were similar in IL-13-/- mice at day 7; however, the ECM matrix induced by Oncostatin M (OSM) was reduced at day 14 in the IL-13-/- mice. CD45+col1+ fibrocyte numbers were elevated at day 7 due to AdOSM whereas macrophages were not. Day 14 levels of CD45+col1+ fibrocytes were maintained in the wildtype mice treated with AdOSM but were reduced in IL-13-/- mice. The expression of the fibrocyte chemotactic factor CXCL12/SDF-1 was suppressed marginally by AdOSM in vivo and significantly in vitro in mouse lung fibroblast cell cultures. Thus, Oncostatin M can stimulate inflammation in an IL-13-independent manner in BALB/c lungs; however, the ECM remodeling and fibrocyte accumulation is reduced in IL-13 deficiency.

Abstract
Oncostatin M (OSM) induces the differentiation of liver cancer stem cells (LCSCs) and increases sensitivity to the chemotherapeutic agent 5-fluorouracil, whereas salinomycin (Sal) induces apoptosis in cancer stem cells and inhibits the proliferation of liver cancer cells. However, there have been no studies investigating the anticancer effects of combination treatment with OSM and Sal. In the present study, we investigated the synergistic effects of OSM and Sal on LCSCs, the CD133+ subpopulations from HepG2 human liver cancer cells. CD133+ LCSCs were isolated using an immunomagnetic bead technique and identified through colony formation. After incubating with OSM and Sal, the ability of LCSC proliferation and invasion, as well as apoptosis rates were evaluated, and the expression of stemness-related genes was examined by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. Additionally, the secretion of α-fetoprotein (AFP) and albumin (ALB) were analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Our results indicated that OSM combined with Sal significantly suppressed LCSC proliferation and invasion and induced apoptosis, as determined by flow cytometry and increases in cleaved caspase-3 levels detected by western blotting. The results of the JC-1 staining assay indicated that this effect involved the mitochondrial pathway. Moreover, combination treatment reduced the expression of CD133 in LCSCs and suppressed stemness-related gene expression. Furthermore, the LCSCs produced lower levels of AFP and higher levels of ALB following combination treatment. In all experiments, combination treatment elicited more efficient anticancer effects on LCSCs as compared with single-drug treatment; therefore, our results demonstrated that combined treatment with OSM and Sal inhibited proliferation and induced differentiation and apoptosis in LCSCs, suggesting combined use of OSM and Sal as a therapeutic strategy for liver cancer.

Abstract
Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) is the second most common keratinocyte malignancy and accounts for 20% of skin cancer deaths. Cancer is closely related to inflammation, but the contribution of the tumor microenvironment to cSCC development is poorly understood. We previously showed that oncostatin M (OSM), a cytokine belonging to the IL-6 family, promotes normal keratinocyte proliferation and migration, skin inflammation, and epidermal hyperplasia, both in vitro and in vivo. Here, we show that OSM is overexpressed in human cSCC and is associated with type 1 immune polarization. In vitro, OSM induced STAT-3 and ERK signaling, modified the expression of genes involved in cytokine signaling, proliferation, inhibition of apoptosis, and immune responses, and promoted proliferation and migration of malignant keratinocyte PDVC57 cells. PDVC57 cells grafted in the skin of mice led to rapid cSCC development, associated with OSM expression by tumor-infiltrating neutrophils. Finally, the absence of OSM (OSM-KO mice) led to a 30% reduction of tumor size and reduced M2 polarization in the tumor microenvironment. Globally, these results support a pro-tumoral role of OSM in cSCC development and suggest that a new therapeutic approach targeting this cytokine could be considered.

Abstract
Oncostatin M (OSM) is a pleiotropic cytokine within the interleukin six family of cytokines, which regulate cell growth and differentiation in a wide variety of biological systems. However, its action and underlying mechanisms on stem Leydig cell development are unclear. The objective of the present study was to investigate whether OSM affects the proliferation and differentiation of rat stem Leydig cells. We used a Leydig cell regeneration model in rat testis and a unique seminiferous tubule culture system after ethane dimethane sulfonate (EDS) treatment to assess the ability of OSM in the regulation of proliferation and differentiation of rat stem Leydig cells. Intratesticular injection of OSM (10 and 100 ng/testis) from post-EDS day 14 to 28 blocked the regeneration of Leydig cells by reducing serum testosterone levels without affecting serum luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone levels. It also decreased the levels of Leydig cell-specific mRNAs (Lhcgr, Star, Cyp11a1, Hsd3b1, Cyp17a1 and Hsd11b1) and their proteins by the RNA-Seq and Western blotting analysis. OSM had no effect on the proliferative capacity of Leydig cells in vivo. In the seminiferous tubule culture system, OSM (0.1, 1, 10 and 100 ng/mL) inhibited the differentiation of stem Leydig cells by reducing medium testosterone levels and downregulating the expression of Leydig cell-specific genes (Lhcgr, Star, Cyp11a1, Hsd3b1, Cyp17a1 and Hsd11b1) and their proteins. OSM-mediated action was reversed by S3I-201 (a STAT3 antagonist) or filgotinib (a JAK1 inhibitor). These data suggest that OSM is an inhibitory factor of rat stem Leydig cell development.

Abstract
Bile acids (BAs) control metabolism and inflammation by interacting with several receptors. Here, we report that intravenous infusion of taurodeoxycholate (TDCA) decreases serum pro-inflammatory cytokines, normalizes hypotension, protects against renal injury, and prolongs mouse survival during sepsis. TDCA increases the number of granulocytic myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCLT) distinctive from MDSCs obtained without TDCA treatment (MDSCL) in the spleen of septic mice. FACS-sorted MDSCLT cells suppress T-cell proliferation and confer protection against sepsis when adoptively transferred better than MDSCL. Proteogenomic analysis indicated that TDCA controls chromatin silencing, alternative splicing, and translation of the immune proteome of MDSCLT, which increases the expression of anti-inflammatory molecules such as oncostatin, lactoferrin and CD244. TDCA also decreases the expression of pro-inflammatory molecules such as neutrophil elastase. These findings suggest that TDCA globally edits the proteome to increase the number of MDSCLT cells and affect their immune-regulatory functions to resolve systemic inflammation during sepsis.

Wie JH, Ko HS, Choi SK, Park IY, Kim A, Kim HS, Shin JC. Effects of Oncostatin M on Invasion of Primary Trophoblasts under Normoxia and Hypoxia Conditions. Yonsei Med J 2018; 59:879-886.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the effect of oncostatin M (OSM) on protein expression levels and enzymatic activities of matrix metalloprotainase (MMP)-2 and MMP-9 in primary trophoblasts and the invasiveness thereof under normoxia and hypoxia conditions. MATERIALS AND METHODS Protein expression levels and enzymatic activities of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in primary trophoblasts under normoxia and hypoxia conditions were examined by Western blot and zymography, respectively. Effects of exogenous OSM on the in vitro invasion activity of trophoblasts according to oxygen concentration were also determined. Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) siRNA was used to determine whether STAT3 activation in primary trophoblasts was involved in the effect of OSM. RESULTS OSM enhanced protein expression levels and enzymatic activities of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in term trophoblasts under hypoxia condition, compared to normoxia control (p<0.05). OSM-induced MMP-2 and MMP-9 enzymatic activities were significantly suppressed by STAT3 siRNA silencing under normoxia and hypoxia conditions (p<0.05). Hypoxia alone or OSM alone did not significantly increase the invasiveness of term trophoblasts. However, the invasion activity of term trophoblasts was significantly increased by OSM under hypoxia, compared to that without OSM treatment under normoxia. CONCLUSION OSM might be involved in the invasiveness of extravillous trophoblasts under hypoxia conditions via increasing MMP-2 and MMP-9 enzymatic activities through STAT3 signaling. Increased MMP-9 activity by OSM seems to be more important in primary trophoblasts.

Oncostatin M treatment increases the responsiveness toward cisplatin-based chemoradiotherapy in cervical cancer cells in a STAT3-dependent manner. Oncol Lett 2018; 16:3351-3358. [PMID: 30127934 DOI: 10.3892/ol.2018.8987] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2017] [Accepted: 05/22/2018] [Indexed: 01/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Cervical cancer stage-dependent therapies include surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy and chemoradiotherapy. Concurrent cisplatin-based chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) is the standard therapy for locally advanced cervical carcinoma (FIGO>IIB), however therapy resistance in a subset of patients is still a major clinical challenge. The present study aimed to analyze the impact of Oncostatin M (OSM) stimulation on CCRT-induced cell death. The present study used cells derived from cervical squamous cell carcinomas (SW756, 808, CaSki and 879) and adenocarcinoma (HeLa). The cervical carcinoma cells were HPV18-positive (HeLa, SW756, 808) or HPV16-positive (CaSki, 879). In addition to the established cell lines HeLa, SW756 and CaSki, the more recently generated cervical cancer cells 808 and 879 were also used. To analyze their radiosensitivity, cells were treated with increasing doses of irradiation (0-8 Gy). To mimic chemotherapy, radiotherapy or CCRT in vitro, the cells were challenged with 0.975 µg/ml cisplatin, irradiated with 6 Gy or a combination. A total of 10 ng/ml OSM was applied for 2 h prior to the respective therapy. The responsiveness toward radiation alone varied among the cervical carcinoma cells. CaSki, 808 and 879 cells were resistant to irradiation up to 8 Gy. OSM pre-treatment sensitized two out of five cell lines (HeLa and 879) to irradiation. Notably, all tested cells were sensitized by OSM for CCRT-treatment, particularly in the less radiosensitive cells. Cell death enhancement was dependent on phosphorylated signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3; Tyr705) signaling activation as demonstrated with a dominant-negative version of STAT3 interfering with phosphorylation at Tyr705 (dnSTAT3-Y705F). In conclusion, OSM pre-treatment was able to override resistance to CCRT via the STAT3 signaling pathway.
