    Abstract Inflammatory demyelination and axonal injury in the central nervous system (CNS) are cardinal features of progressive multiple sclerosis (MS), and linked to activated brain macrophage-like cells (BMCs) including resident microglia and trafficking macrophages. Caspase-1 is a pivotal mediator of inflammation and cell death in the CNS. We investigated the effects of caspase-1 activation and its regulation in models of MS. Brains from progressive MS and non-MS patients, as well as cultured human oligodendrocytes were examined by transcriptomic and morphological methods. Next generation transcriptional sequencing of progressive MS compared to non-MS patients' normal appearing white matter (NAWM) showed induction of caspase-1 as well as other inflammasome-associated genes with concurrent suppression of neuron-specific genes. Oligodendrocytes exposed to TNFα exhibited upregulation of caspase-1 with myelin gene suppression in a cell differentiation state-dependent manner. Brains from cuprizone-exposed mice treated by intranasal delivery of the caspase-1 inhibitor, VX-765 or its vehicle, were investigated in morphological and molecular studies, as well as by fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) imaging. Cuprizone exposure resulted in BMC and caspase-1 activation accompanied by demyelination and axonal injury, which was abrogated by intranasal VX-765 treatment. FDG-PET imaging revealed suppressed glucose metabolism in the thalamus, hippocampus and cortex of cuprizone-exposed mice that was restored with VX-765 treatment. These studies highlight the caspase-1 dependent interactions between inflammation, demyelination, and glucose metabolism in progressive MS and associated models. Intranasal delivery of an anti-caspase-1 therapy represents a promising therapeutic approach for progressive MS and other neuro-inflammatory diseases.

    Abstract Transgenic mice are important tools for our study of breast cancer pathobiology. In order to evaluate changes in cell phenotype with breast cancer progression, we examined vascular and progenitor cell characteristics in tumours derived from MMTV-PyVmT mice. We performed dual-immunofluorescence staining for Tie2, pTie2Y1100, VEGFR2 and PDGFR-β and the pan-endothelial marker PECAM-1 (CD31) in 39 tumours from MMTV-PyVmT transgenic mice grouped by nuclear grade and tumour morphology. Immunohistochemical staining for Aldh1a1 was performed in MMTV-PyVmT-derived tumours and in non-transgenic mouse mammary glands. Tumour blood vessels were heterogeneous in all samples analysed, with the proportion of Tie2-, pTie2 (Y1100)-, VEGFR2- and PDGFR-β-positive tumour blood vessels ranging from 18-98%, 7-40%, 19-86% and 16-94% respectively. We observed a statistically significant difference in vascular pTie2Y1100 levels between low-nuclear-grade tumours and intermediate-/high-nuclear-grade tumours (P=0.03) and an increase in the proportion of PDGFR-β-positive tumour blood vessels in tumours with high vs. Intermediate-nuclear grade tumours (P<0.01). Aldh1a1-positive mammary epithelial cells were observed in the terminal end buds of non-transgenic mammary glands and Aldh1a1-positive mammary tumour cells were observed in tumours from MMTV-PyVmT transgenic mice. We observed a decrease in the average number of Aldh1a1-positive cells in tumours with a non-invasive vs. solid morphology (P=0.03), and in the average number of Aldh1a1-positive mammary tumour cells in low vs. intermediate and low vs. High-nuclear grade tumours (P<0.001). Our findings suggest heterogeneous expression of several molecules important for tumour angiogenesis and tumour progression that are currently under investigation as therapeutic targets for metastatic breast cancer.
