Effect of Tiotropium Bromide on Airway Inflammation and Programmed Cell Death 5 in a Mouse Model of Ovalbumin-Induced Allergic Asthma. Can Respir J 2019; 2019:6462171. [PMID: 31662808 PMCID: PMC6791200 DOI: 10.1155/2019/6462171] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/04/2019] [Revised: 07/16/2019] [Accepted: 09/01/2019] [Indexed: 01/21/2023] Open
Abstract
Rationale We previously demonstrated increased expression of programmed cell death 5 (PDCD5) in asthmatic patients and ovalbumin-induced allergic asthma. International guidelines (GINA 2019) have included the use of tiotropium bromide for chronic treatment of the most severe and frequently exacerbated asthma in patients ≥6 years old, who do not have good response to inhaled corticosteroids. Objective To explore the role of tiotropium and its effect on PDCD5 level in a mouse model of chronic asthma. Methods We divided 12 female mice into 2 groups: untreated asthma (n = 6) and tiotropium-treated asthma (n = 6). The impact of tiotropium was assessed by histology of lung tissue and morphometry. Pulmonary function was tested by using pressure sensors. The number of cells in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was detected. Levels of PDCD5, active caspase-3, and muscarinic acetylcholine receptors M2 (ChRM2) and M3 (ChRM3) were examined. Results Tiotropium treatment significantly reduced airway inflammation and remodeling in asthmatic mice and intensified the lung function. PDCD5 level was reduced with tiotropium (p < 0.05). Moreover, active caspase-3 level was decreased with tiotropium (p < 0.001), and ChRM3 level was increased. Conclusions Tiotropium treatment may alleviate the pathological changes with asthma by regulating apoptosis.

PDCD5 regulates iNKT cell terminal maturation and iNKT1 fate decision. Cell Mol Immunol 2018; 16:746-756. [PMID: 29921968 DOI: 10.1038/s41423-018-0059-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/17/2018] [Accepted: 05/30/2018] [Indexed: 01/24/2023] Open
Abstract
Invariant natural killer T1 (iNKT1) cells are characterized by the preferential expression of T-box transcription factor T-bet (encoded by Tbx21) and the production of cytokine IFN-γ, but the relationship between the developmental process and iNKT1 lineage diversification in the thymus remains elusive. We report in the present study a crucial role of programmed cell death 5 (PDCD5) in iNKT cell terminal maturation and iNKT1 fate determination. Mice with T cell-specific deletion of PDCD5 had decreased numbers of thymic and peripheral iNKT cells with a predominantly immature phenotype and defects in response to α-galactosylceramide. Loss of PDCD5 also selectively abolished the iNKT1 lineage by reducing T-bet expression in iNKT cells at an early thymic developmental stage (before CD44 upregulation). We further demonstrated that TOX2, one of the high mobility group proteins that was highly expressed in iNKT cells at stage 1 and could be stabilized by PDCD5, promoted the permissive histone H3K4me3 modification in the promoter region of Tbx21. These data indicate a pivotal and unique role of PDCD5/TOX2 in iNKT1 lineage determination. They also suggest that the fate of iNKT1 may be programmed at the developmental stage of iNKT cells in the thymus.

Programmed cell death 5 suppresses AKT-mediated cytoprotection of endothelium. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 2018; 115:4672-4677.

Abstract
Programmed cell death 5 (PDCD5) has been associated with human cancers as a regulator of cell death; however, the role of PDCD5 in the endothelium has not been revealed. Thus, we investigated whether PDCD5 regulates protein kinase B (PKB/AKT)-endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS)-dependent signal transduction in the endothelium and affects atherosclerosis. Endothelial-specific PDCD5 knockout mice showed significantly reduced vascular remodeling compared with wild-type (WT) mice after partial carotid ligation. WT PDCD5 competitively inhibited interaction between histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) and AKT, but PDCD5L6R, an HDAC3-binding-deficient mutant, did not. Knockdown of PDCD5 accelerated HDAC3-AKT interaction, AKT and eNOS phosphorylation, and nitric oxide (NO) production in human umbilical vein endothelial cells. Moreover, we found that serum PDCD5 levels reflect endothelial NO production and are correlated with diabetes mellitus, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and coronary calcium in human samples obtained from the cardiovascular high-risk cohort. Therefore, we conclude that PDCD5 is associated with endothelial dysfunction and may be a novel therapeutic target in atherosclerosis.

Abstract
Autoimmune diseases are a diverse group of chronic disorders and affect a multitude of organs and systems. However, the existence of common pathophysiological mechanisms is hypothesized and reports of shared risk are emerging as well. In this regard, patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) have been shown to have an increased susceptibility to develop chronic autoimmune thyroid diseases, in particular Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT), suggesting an autoimmune predisposition. However, studies comparing such different pathologies of autoimmune origin are still missing till date. In the present study, we sought to investigate mechanisms which may lead to the frequent coexistence of MS and HT by analyzing several factors related to the pathogenesis of MS and HT in patients affected by one or both diseases, as well as in healthy donors. In particular, we analyzed peripheral blood mononuclear cell gene-expression levels of common candidate genes such as TNFAIP3, NR4A family, BACH2, FOXP3, and PDCD5, in addition to the regulatory T cell (Treg) percentage and the 25-hydroxy vitamin D serum levels. Our findings support the plausibility of the existence of common deregulated mechanisms shared by MS and HT, such as BACH2/PDCD5-FOXP3 pathways and Tregs. Although the biological implications of these data need to be further investigated, we have highlighted the relevance of studies comparing different autoimmune pathologies for the understanding of the core concepts of autoimmunity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Programmed cell death 5 (PDCD5) is an apoptosis-related gene cloned from TF-1 cells whose primary biological functions are to promote apoptosis and immune regulation. The effects and mechanisms exerted by key mediators of arthritic inflammation remain unclear in PDCD5 transgenic (PDCD5 tg) mice. RESULTS In the current study, PDCD5 tg mice inhibited the progression of adjuvant-induced arthritis, specifically decreasing clinical signs and histological damage, compared with arthritis control mice. Additionally, the ratio of CD4+IFN-γ+ cells (Th1) and CD4+IL-17A+ cells (Th17), as well as the mRNA expression of the pro-inflammatory mediators IFN-γ, IL-6, IL-17A and TNF-α, were decreased in PDCD5 tg mice, while CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ regulatory T (Treg) cells and the anti-inflammatory mediators IL-4 and IL-10 were increased. Furthermore, PDCD5 tg mice demonstrated reduced serum levels of IFN-γ, IL-6, IL-17A and TNF-α and increased levels of IL-4. CONCLUSIONS Based on our data, PDCD5 exerts anti-inflammatory effects by modifying the T lymphocytes balance, inhibiting the production of pro-inflammatory mediators and promoting the secretion of anti-inflammatory cytokines, validating PDCD5 protein as a possible treatment for RA.

Abstract
Programmed cell death (PDCD)5 is cloned from human leukemia cell line TF-1. PDCD5 is one of the members of the programmed cell death protein family that is frequently involved in tumor growth and apoptosis. To investigate the molecular and cellular functions of PDCD5, the present study established a PDCD5 stably overexpressing A431 cell line and examined the role of PDCD5 in cell proliferation, cell cycle progression and apoptosis. The data demonstrated that overexpression of PDCD5 significantly inhibited cell proliferation, induced cell cycle arrest at G2/M phase and apoptosis in A431 cells. The expression profiles of certain key regulators of these cellular events were further investigated, including P53, B cell lymphoma (BCL)-2, BCL-2 associated X protein (BAX) and caspase (CASP)3. The data demonstrated that at the transcript and protein levels, P53, BAX and CASP3 were all upregulated in the PDCD5 stably overexpressing A431 cells whereas BCL-2 was downregulated, indicating that PDCD5 acts as an important upstream regulator of P53, BCL-2, BAX and CASP3. The data suggest that PDCD5 regulates cell proliferation, cell cycle progression and apoptosis in A431 cells. PDCD5 may be a novel tumor suppressor gene, and may be potentially used for cancer treatment in the future.

Abstract
Background Programmed cell death 5 (PDCD5) was first identified as an apoptosis-promoting protein and involved in some autoimmune diseases and inflammatory processes. Our previous study demonstrated greater expression of serum PDCD5 in asthmatic patients than controls. This study aimed to further explore the significance of PDCD5 in mice with induced allergic asthma. Methods We divided 16 female mice into 2 groups: control (n = 8) and allergen (ovalbumin, OVA)-challenged mice (n = 8). The modified ovalbumin inhalation method was used to generate the allergic asthma mouse model, and the impact of OVA was assessed by histology of lung tissue and morphometry. The number of cells in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was detected. Pulmonary function was measured by pressure sensors. PDCD5 and active caspase-3 levels were detected. Results The expression of PDCD5 was higher with OVA challenge than for controls (p < 0.05). PDCD5 level was correlated with number of inflammatory cells in BALF and lung function. Moreover, active caspase-3 level was increased in the OVA-challenged mice (p < 0.001) and correlated with PDCD5 level (p = 0.000). Conclusions These data demonstrate an association between level of PDCD5 and asthma severity and indicate that PDCD5 may play a role in allergic asthma.

Abstract
Programmed cell death 5 (PDCD5) was originally identified as an apoptosis-accelerating protein that is widely expressed and has been well conserved during the process of evolution. PDCD5 has complex biological functions, including programmed cell death and immune regulation. It can accelerate apoptosis in different type of cells in response to different stimuli. During this process, PDCD5 rapidly translocates from the cytoplasm to the nucleus. PDCD5 regulates the activities of TIP60, HDAC3, MDM2 and TP53 transcription factors. These proteins form part of a signaling network that is disrupted in most, if not all, cancer cells. Recent evidence suggests that PDCD5 participates in immune regulation by promoting regulatory T cell function via the PDCD5-TIP60-FOXP3 pathway. The stability and expression of PDCD5 are finely regulated by other molecules, such as NF-κB p65, OTUD5, YAF2 and DNAJB1. PDCD5 is phosphorylated by CK2 at Ser119, which is required for nuclear translocation in response to genotoxic stress. In this review, we describe what is known about PDCD5 and its cellular functions.

Abstract
Programmed cell death 5 (PDCD5) was first identified as a gene upregulated in cells undergoing apoptosis. We recently demonstrated the inhibitory effect of PDCD5 on experimentally induced autoimmune encephalomyelitis. In this study, we investigated the anti-inflammatory effects of recombinant human PDCD5 (rhPDCD5) in a rat collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) model. We find that vaccination of collagen II (CII) induced CIA rats with rhPDCD5 significantly delayed the occurrence and reduced the severity of CIA rats. rhPDCD5 also restored the loss of Foxp3+ regulatory T (Treg) cells and decreased the population of Th1 and Th17 in CIA rats. Simultaneously, rhPDCD5 treatment suppressed the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines (interleukin (IL)-6, IL-17A, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and interferon gamma (IFN-γ)) and increased the secretion of anti-inflammatory cytokines (transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-β1) and IL-10) in CIA rats. In addition, rhPDCD5 inhibited the ability of CII to induce proliferation of splenocytes and lymph node cells (LNCs) and promoted the CII-activated CD4+ cell apoptosis. These results of rhPDCD5-treated CIA rats were similar with those of recombinant human TNF-α receptor IgG Fc (rhTNFR:Fc). Thus, to our knowledge, we provide the first evidence that rhPDCD5 may be an efficient approach to diminishing exacerbated immune responses in CIA, indicating its therapeutic potential in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and other autoimmune diseases.

Abstract
Cardiac remodeling, including cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis, is an important pathological process that can lead to heart failure. A previous study demonstrated that autophagy could represent an active adaptive response in cardiomyocytes that affords protection from cardiac remodeling. In the present study, we investigated the role of an autophagy-related gene, PDCD5 (Programmed cell death 5), in cardiac remodeling induced by β-adrenergic stimulation in vivo. We report for the first time that mice systemically overexpressing PDCD5 (PDCD5tg) were protected from cardiac remodeling. In addition, cardiac function was preserved in PDCD5tg mice in response to isoproterenol (ISO) stimulation. Importantly, basal autophagy was significantly higher in PDCD5tg mice than in the wild-type (WT) mice. Moreover, apoptosis was significantly lower in PDCD5tg mice than in WT mice, among the ISO-induced animals. In summary, our findings reveal that PDCD5 overexpression improves cardiac function and inhibits cardiac remodeling induced by ISO via induction of autophagy and inhibition of apoptosis.

Abstract
Maintenance of FOXP3 protein expression is crucial for differentiation and maturation of regulatory T (Treg) cells, which play important roles in immune homeostasis and immune tolerance. We demonstrate here that PDCD5 interacts with FOXP3, increases acetylation of FOXP3 in synergy with Tip60 and enhances the repressive function of FOXP3. In PDCD5 transgenic (PDCD5tg) mice, overexpression of PDCD5 enhanced the level of FOXP3 protein and percentage of CD4(+)CD25(+)FOXP3(+) cells. Naïve CD4(+) T cells from PDCD5tg mice were more sensitive to TGF-β-induced Treg polarization and expansion. These induced Tregs retained normal suppressive function in vitro. Severity of experimentally-induced autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) in PDCD5tg mice was significantly reduced relative to that of wild-type mice. The beneficial effect of PDCD5 likely resulted from increases of Treg cell frequency, accompanied by a reduction of the predominant pathogenic Th17/Th1 response. Activation-induced cell death enhanced by PDCD5 was also linked to this process. This is the first report revealing that PDCD5 activity in T cells suppresses autoimmunity by modulating Tregs. This study suggests that PDCD5 serves as a guardian of immunological functions and that the PDCD5-FOXP3-Treg axis may be a therapeutic target for autoimmunity.
