The cross-talk in vivo between two signalling pathways activated by testosterone via intracellular androgen receptor, and induced by damage to renal tubules evoked by anti-folate [N10-propargyl-5,8-dideazafolic acid (CB 3717)] or folate is reported. We show that CB 3717/folate induces the expression of the hepatocyte growth factor (HGF)/c-Met signalling system in injured kidneys in which a significant, but transient, elevation of the HGF mRNA level occurs. It is followed by a severalfold increase in the c-Met transmembrane receptor message that persists for up to 24h. The c-Met expression is also positively controlled by testosterone, which induces a significant increase in its mRNA level that is abolished by an anti-androgen, casodex. However, when testosterone and anti-folate/folate are administered sequentially, a substantial (3.5Ő4.0-fold) decrease in the increase of c-Met expression caused by CB 3717/folate alone occurs. Similarly, testosterone-induced ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) mRNA level and activity are decreased 2.8Ő7.7-fold when the androgen is applied together with CB 3717. Antagonism between these pathways is also visible under physiological conditions in the kidneys of male mice in which, owing to elevated endogenous testosterone levels, neither the ODC activity nor the mRNA level is induced by anti-folate/folate, whereas the c-Met message response to these drugs is significantly decreased. Our results document a substantial negative regulation of c-Met and ODC gene expression as a result of the cross-talk between testosterone-activated and HGF-activated pathways and suggest a sex-differentiated response to injury of mouse kidneys.

The regulation of cell death through apoptosis is essential to a number of physiological processes. Defective apoptosis regulation is associated with many abnormalities including anomalies in organ development, altered immune response and the development of cancer. Several signalling pathways are known to regulate apoptosis including the Tumour Necrosis Factor-α (TNF-α) and Hippo signalling pathways. In this paper we review the cross-talk between the TNF-α pathway and the Hippo signalling pathway. Several molecules that tightly regulate the Hippo pathway, such as members of the Ras-association domain family member (RASSF) family proteins, interact and modulate some key proteins within the TNF-α pathway. Meanwhile, TNF-α stimulation also affects the expression and activation of core components of the Hippo pathway. This implies the crucial role of signal integration between these two major pathways in regulating apoptosis.

Abstract Objectives Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) play a role in the pathogenesis of periodontitis and rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, it remains poorly understood whether NETs participate in the cross-talk between periodontitis and RA. Herein, we investigated the production of NETs in individuals with periodontitis and RA and its association with clinical parameters. The impact of periodontal therapy on RA and NET release was also assessed. Methods The concentration of NETs and cytokines was determined in the saliva and plasma of individuals with early RA (n = 24), established RA (n = 64), and individuals without RA (n = 76). The influence of periodontitis on the production of NETs and cytokines was also evaluated. Results Individuals with early RA had a higher concentration of NETs in saliva and plasma than individuals with established RA or without RA. Periodontitis resulted in an increase in the concentration of NETs of groups of individuals without RA and with early RA. The proportion of individuals with high concentrations of IL-6, IL-10 and GM-CSF was higher among individuals with periodontitis than among individuals without periodontitis. The concentrations of TNF-α, IL-6, IL-17/IL-25, and IL-28A were particularly high in individuals with early RA. Worse periodontal clinical parameters, RA onset and RA activity were significantly associated with circulating NETs. Periodontal therapy was associated with a reduction in the concentration of NETs and inflammatory cytokines and amelioration in periodontitis and RA. Conclusion This study reveals that NETs are a possible link between periodontitis and RA, with periodontal therapy resulting in a dramatic switch in circulating NET levels.
