Full textThe present thesis explores the world of ER (endoplasmic reticulum) stress biology. A global view of ER and ER stress is first provided with a transition from the basic mechanisms involved to possible clinical applications. The focus is then placed to the crucial role of the UPR in carcinogenesis that is activated in response to ER stress in the micro-environment of the tumor. After reviewing these aspects, we point to missing parts in our comprehension of how UPR signals are fine-tuned and lead to either restoration of ER and cell homeostasis or cell death. Among the UPR branches, ATF6 and IRE1 signaling become our focus of investigation because of their convergence in the regulation of the pro-survival factor XBP1s. On the one hand, we unravel mechanisms originating from the ER lumen that regulate the ATF6 activation in response to ER stress and affect its downstream cell adaptive signaling. On the other hand, we witness the existence of an auto-regulatory network of IRE1 RNase activity consisted of a tyrosine kinase-phosphatase system that targets RtcB and impacts on XBP1 mRNA splicing. Hence, through our studies we uncover an integrated signaling circuit that can fine-tune the cellular outputs of the joint ATF6 and IRE1 activation in response to ER stress

Full textDevelopmental robustness is the ability to produce similar phenotypes despite intrinsic variability.Regulation of organ shape has been widely studied, but regulation of organ shape reproducibility is yet to be elucidated.A. thaliana sepals, flower external organs, can be used to study such robustness : each plant produces more than 60 flowers, allowing variability measurement.Plant cells modulate their surrounding cell wall stiffness and anisotropy to control growth, thus my PhD aims at elucidating the role of cell wall mechanics on organ shape robustness.Cells sense their physical environment and accordingly adjust their cell wall mechanics: we studied whether the strength of this feedback influenced organ shapes. Using a model, I showed that a strong feedback lead to the formation of a pointy sepal tip; this prediction was experimentally validated by a PhD student of the team.Measurements of the cell wall mechanical properties using atomic force microscopy (AFM) showed that they were highly spatially variable. When this variability was added in the model, the organ shapes were variable. To get reproducible shapes, I increased the temporal variability of the mechanics: it smoothed the spatial variability over time. Likewise, decreasing spatial variability reduced organ shape robustness. These theoretical results suggest that spatial and temporal variability influence shape robustness.To experimentally test these results, our collaborators identified a mutant displaying less robust sepal shapes. Using AFM, I showed that the spatial variability was reduced in the mutant, confirming that mechanical spatial variability influenced shape robustness

Full textA critical question for developmental biology is the mechanism by which cells make fate decisions. In the hematopoietic system, stem cells differentiate into several different cell types, but the mechanisms that affect this process are incompletely known. Understanding these mechanisms is important because abnormal regulation of hematopoiesis can result in disease. STAT1 protein plays crucial roles in mediating innate immunity by transducing interferon signals, but recent results have also related STAT1 to hematopoietic cell differentiation. Here we cloned a previously uncharacterized zebrafish co-ortholog of the human STAT1 gene we call stat1b and investigated the functions of two zebrafish Stat1 proteins in hematopoiesis. The advantage of the zebrafish model is that, due to a whole genome duplication (WGD), some human genes have two co-orthologs in zebrafish. During evolution, co-orthologs have retained or acquired similar, complimentary, or new functions. Both stat1a and stat1b encode all four characteristic domains of the human STAT1 protein. Phylogenetic and conserved synteny analyses showed that stat1b and stat1a arose as duplicates in the teleost genome duplication event, and these analyses clarified the historical origin of the entire vertebrate STAT gene family. RT-PCR demonstrated maternal expression of both stat1a and stat1b . Expression of stat1b, but not stat1a, was detected in hematopoietic domains of embryos by in situ hybridization. Morpholino knockdown of stat1b , but not stat1a, mRNA expression resulted in a decrease in expression of the myeloid cell marker genes spi and mpx and an increase in expression of the hematopoietic progenitor marker gene scl and the erythrocyte marker gene gatal. These results show that in zebrafish, Stat1b protein functions in the commitment of hematopoietic cells to a myeloid cell fate.

Full textTo determine the physiological roles of P2Y receptor family, our laboratory generated different strains of P2Y knockout mice (P2Y4 ,6 and 13). In collaboration with A. Gartland ,I. And Arnett TR Orriss ( Sheffield and London University) ,it has been observed that the P2Y13R-/- mice exhibit an impaired bone tissue metabolism that leads to a reduction in the volume of the femoral trabecular bone and the number of trabeculae. This phenotype is correlated with the decrease in the number of osteoblasts at the endo-cortical bone surface .
We therefore examined whether P2Y13 R activation was involved in the osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). In the first part of our work we have shown that :
Induction of the MSCs differentiation is associated with the release of ATP and its conversion to ADP (agonist of the P2Y13R). ATP release probably involves the pannexine1 while the conversion of ATP into ADP is probably due to the activity of the ecto-nucleotidase CD39L1.
ADP stimulation of P2Y13 R+/+ (but not P2Y13 R-/-) adherent bone marrow stromal cells (BMSC) increased significantly the formation of alkaline phosphatase-colony forming units (CFU-ALP), as well as the expression of osteoblastic genes such as Osterix involved in the maturation of pre-osteoblasts into osteoblasts. The number of CFU-ALP obtained from P2Y13 R-/- BMSC and the level of osteoblastic gene expression after osteogenic stimulation were also strongly reduced compared to those obtained in wild-type cell cultures. In contrast, when P2Y13 R-/- BMSCs were incubated in an adipogenic medium, the number of adipocytes generated and the level of adipogenic gene expression (PPARγ2 and Adipsin) were higher than those obtained in P2Y13 R+/+ MSC. We also observed a significant increase of the number of bone marrow adipocytes in tibia of P2Y13 R-/- mice.
The P2ry12 gene deletion (also activated by ADP) also affects the ability of BMSCs to differentiate into osteoblasts but stimulates adipogenic differentiation.
In a second part of our work ,we have shown that the pro- osteogenic action of P2Y13R is indirect. Indeed ,this receptor is not expressed by MSCs but by adherent myeloid cells present in the bone marrow cell cultures (characterized by the expression of CD11b and CD45 markers) .In addition, we observed that following receptor activation by ADP ,these myeloid cells produce BMP2 factor.
We therefor propose that the stimulation of MSCs differentiation induces CD45- adherent cells to release ATP that is converted into ADP, most probably by the up-regulated CD39L1 ectonucleotidase. This ADP stimulates P2Y12R and P2Y13R expressed by CD45+/CD11b+ myeloid cells leading to the release of the osteogenic factor BMP2. This cytokine favours the maturation of pre-osteoblasts into osteoblasts and concomitantly inhibits the maturation of pre-adipocytes.

Hennig, Katharina. "Dynamique des forces motiles et brisure de symétrie chez la cellule migrante." Thesis, Université Grenoble Alpes (ComUE), 2018. http://www.theses.fr/2018GREAY040/document.
Full textDirectional cell motility during organism and tissue development, homeostasis and disease requires symmetry breaking. This process relies on the ability of single cells to establish a front-rear polarity, and can occur in absence of external cues. The initiation of migration has been attributed to the spontaneous polarization of cytoskeleton components, while the spatio- temporal evolution of cytoskeletal forces arising from continuous mechanical cell-substrate interaction has yet to be resolved. Here, we establish a one- dimensional microfabricated migration assay that mimics complex in vivo fibrillar environment while being compatible with high-resolution force measurements, quantitative microscopy, and optogenetics. Quantification of morphometric and mechanical parameters reveals a generic stick-slip behavior initiated by contractility-dependent stochastic detachment of adhesive contacts at one side of the cell, which is sufficient to drive directional cell motility in absence of pre-established cytoskeleton polarity or morphogen gradients. A theoretical model validates the crucial role of adhesion dynamics during spontaneous symmetry breaking, proposing that the examined phenomenon can emerge independently of a complex self-polarizing system

Full textOur team have characterized a new receptor, msr/apj, which is expressed in the endothelium of newly forming heart and blood vessels. In 1998, the endogenous ligand (named apeline) of this receptor was isolated by a Japanese laboratory. In order to understand the endothelial function of this new signaling pathway, we analyzed the various signal transduction pathways activated by apelin in CHO cells which stably express msr/apj. In these cells, apelin induces inhibition of adenylylcyclase, and activation of ERKs and p70S6 kinase. The stable expression of pertussis toxin insensitive a subunits of G proteins led us to demonstrate that ERK stimulation is ai2 dependent and Ras independent. The p70S6 kinase stimulation preferentially involves ai1, a PI3 Kinase, Akt, and mTOR. Interestingly, we observed that HUVEC (Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells) endogenously express the apelin receptor. In these cells, apelin induces the activation of p70S6K and leads to their proliferation. However, these cells also express apelin which can induce an autocrine desensitization of the receptor. This desensitization can be obtained after acute pretreatment of the CHO by apelin or observed with CHO cells co-expressing the receptor and apelin. The deletion of the receptor C-terminal domain abolishes the desensitization associated with the coupling with the ai2 subunit and the ERK activation. Thus, this receptor represents a new pharmacological target for pathologies associated with a neovascularization such as the solid tumors development and ischemic retinopathy

Full textThe chimerical oncogene BCR-ABL is known to induce autonomous motility of leukemic cells. We previously showed that p210bcr-abl responsible for chronic myelogenous leukaemia activates RhoA and Rac1, while p190bcr-abl, associated with acute lymphoid leukaemia, although devoid of a DH domain activates Rac1, but not RhoA. Moreover p95vav is present in an activated state in complex with Bcr-Abl. Here, we investigated the regulation of GEF activities in the BCR-ABL complex. For that purpose, different GEF activity mutants of Vav and of BCR-ABL were constructed and stably transfected in Ba/F3 cells. We demonstrated that RhoA is exclusively activated by the DH domain of p210bcr-abl, while Rac1 activation was only due to Vav. We show that p210bcr-abl induces a specific amoeboid mobility which is due to RhoA activity, while p190bcr-abl induces a rolling type mobility associated with Rac1 activity. Finally, our results reveal a synergistic mechanism between BCR-ABL and Vav GEFs. Moreover, we demonstrated the presence of Vav2 and GTPase RhoG in the complex with Bcr-Abl. This new signaling pathway cooperates with Vav to activate Rac1 and probably Cdc42. Recently, using blood patient samples, we proved that our model of differential activation of Rho GTPases in leukemia disease is valid. We proposed a molecular study to follow up the leukemia diseases of patients

Full textThe central nervous system comprises three major cell types: neurons, oligodendrocytes and astrocytes. All these cell-types derive from a common multipotential precursor cell, capable of self-renewing, and which is referred to as a neural stem cell. To elucidate the role of Notch signaling on the generation of neurons and glia, we made use of the in vitro neurosphère system which is clonally derived from neural stem cells through the selective action of EGF. Neurospheres prepared from Dll1lacZ mutant embryos display an increase of neurons at the expense of both oligodendrocytes and astrocytes. This mutant phenotype could be rescued when Dll1lacZ spheres were grown and/or differentiated in the presence of WT neurospheres conditioned medium. Time-dependant activation of Notch by soluble forms of ligands indicates that Notch acts in two steps. Initially, it acts on the cell fate choice by negatively regulating the neuronal fate and promoting the glial cell fate. In a second step, Notch promotes differentiation of astrocytes and inhibits differentiation of both neurons and oligodendrocytes
