In the recent years we and others have shown that mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) selectively home to sites of injury and play an important role in tissue repair, wound healing and cancer through differentiation and the release of proangiogenic factors. In the last funding period we demonstrated, for the first time, that T4 and T3 are important stimulators of MSC differentiation in fibroblast-/pericyte-like cells, and have direct stimulatory effects on MSC migration, invasion and recruitment. These effects were shown to be mediated through non-genomic mechanisms via avb3 by their tetrac inhibition. One of the possible molecular mechanisms for this observation is T4/T3-mediated stimulation of the hypoxia response network in MSCs which was also demonstrated in our past funding period. As a logical consequence of our past studies, in the next funding period we will analyze in more detail the mechanistic basis for the non-genomic avb3-mediated effects of T4, T3 and tetrac on the migration of MSCs and MSC-mediated angiogenic effects with a special emphasis on characterization of the signaling pathways involved. For this purpose we will analyze the effects of T4, T3 and tetrac on 1) the expression of MSC cell surface markers, integrins and receptors that are associated with MSC migration, 2) the secretion of angiogenic factors by MSCs and their effect on endothelial cell tube formation. Based on preliminary data by others and our own group, the PI3K/Akt, MAPK and canonical Wnt pathways are logical candidates for further analysis as to their involvement in avb3-mediated non-genomic effects of T4, T3 and tetrac in MSC biology. Therefore, in the current proposal these pathways will be investigated by analysis of downstream targets after treatment of MSCs with T4, T3 in the presence or absence of tetrac, and the effect on MSC migration and invasion after application of specific inhibitors of these pathways. In addition, the activation status of the canonical Wnt pathway as well as two central angiogenesis-related pathways, Tie-2 and VEGF signaling pathways, will be assessed by using pathway-responsive reporter assays in vitro and in vivo using NIS as a reporter gene making use of our longstanding expertise in the application of NIS as theranostic gene. Based on the strong analogies between the process of wound healing and tumor stroma formation, the liver cancer xenograft mouse model established in our previous studies will be used as a robust model of chronic wound/tissue repair. These studies will significantly enhance our understanding of the critical role of thyroid hormones T4 and T3 as well as tetrac in regulation of MSC biology in the context of chronic wound/tissue repair. At the same time, our studies will expand our understanding of the evolving role of integrin avb3 as mediator of thyroid hormone action and its therapeutic implications.

近年来，我们和其他人表明，间充质干细胞（MSC）选择性地归因于损伤部位，并通过分化和促促血管生成因子的释放在组织修复，伤口愈合和癌症中起重要作用。在最后的资金期间，我们首次证明了T4和T3是成纤维细胞 - /周细胞样细胞中MSC分化的重要刺激剂，并且对MSC迁移，侵袭和募集具有直接的刺激作用。这些作用被证明是通过非基因组机制通过AVB3通过其Tetrac抑制作用介导的。该观察结果的可能分子机制之一是T4/T3介导的MSC中缺氧反应网络的刺激，这在我们过去的资金期间也得到了证明。作为我们过去研究的逻辑结果，在下一个资金期间，我们将更详细地分析T4，T3和Tetrac对MSC迁移以及MSC介导的血管生成效应的非基因组介导的影响的机理基础，并具有对涉及信号通路表征的特殊强调。为此，我们将分析T4，T3和Tetrac对1）与MSC迁移相关的MSC细胞表面标记，整联蛋白和受体的表达，2）MSC通过MSC分泌血管生成因子及其对内皮细胞管形成的影响。基于他人和我们自己的小组的初步数据，PI3K/AKT，MAPK和规范WNT途径是逻辑分析的候选者，可以进一步分析它们参与MSC生物学中T4，T3和Tetrac对T4，T3和Tetrac的非基因组效应。因此，在目前的建议中，将通过分析在存在或不存在TetRAC的情况下对MSC，T4，T3处理MSC后的下游靶标进行研究，以及在应用这些途径的特定抑制剂后对MSC迁移和侵袭的影响。此外，将通过在体外使用途径响应的记者分析和体内使用NIS来评估规范WNT途径的激活状态以及两种与中心血管生成相关的途径，TIE-2和VEGF信号通路的激活状态，使用NIS来评估我们在nis nis aS Teranost ost Teranost ost a的应用中使用NIS的良好基因。基于伤口愈合过程和肿瘤基质形成过程之间的强类比，我们先前研究中建立的肝癌异种移植小鼠模型将被用作慢性伤口/组织修复的强大模型。这些研究将显着增强我们对甲状腺激素T4和T3的关键作用以及Tetrac在慢性伤口/组织修复背景下调节MSC生物学方面的关键作用的理解。同时，我们的研究将扩大我们对整合素AVB3作为甲状腺激素作用及其治疗意义的介体不断发展的作用的理解。
