- Loss of SPINK5 and/or SPINK7, the two main SPINK family members expressed in the squamous epithelium leads to profound consequences including impaired epithelial barrier function and elicitation of allergic inflammation in the skin and/or esophagus.
- Epithelial cells use sensors to monitor the external and internal environment. For example, pattern recognition receptors including Toll-like receptors (TLRs) and protease- activated receptors (PARs) in the epidermis sense pathogenic insults. Once the sensor received an input (i.e., recognition of molecules from pathogens, microbiota dysbiosis, proteolytic activity), a cellular decision is made accordingly. Distinct signals will promote diverse cellular responses which result in sealing the barrier tightly against toxins or loosen the barrier to enable immune cells to infiltrate and fight pathogens. Despite the importance of investigating such sensor molecules, a master epithelial sensor in the esophagus has not yet been identified.
- TLRs Toll-like receptors
- PARs protease- activated receptors

- EPC2 cells were grown at high density and in high calcium media to induce cell differentiation and then were transiently co-transfected with firefly luciferase vector (to control for transfection efficiency) and either SPINK7 or control vectors.
- the SPINK7-transfected cells had on average about 340-fold increase in the luminescence signal compared to cells transfected with the empty vector (p ⁇ 0.0001; FIG 1C). Indicating that this region of the SPINK7 gene has promoter activity under these conditions.
- Applicant subsequently considered the minimal sequence required for promoter induction.
- Applicant tested various construct lengths (FIG IE).
- the promoter activity of all reporter constructs was sufficient to drive promoter activity including the shortest construct with the first 1 kb sequence from the 5’ TSS of SPINK7, which was sufficient to drive promoter activity in the high calcium condition compared to the empty vector (80-fold increase, p ⁇ 0.0002; FIG IE).
- the luciferase activity of the cells transfected with the 2 and 3 kb constructs were not significantly different compared to the luciferase activity of the cells that were transfected with the 1 kb construct (FIG IE).
- FOG IE luciferase activity of the cells transfected with the 2 and 3 kb constructs

- OVOE1 binds to SPINK7 promoter
- SPINK7 is a direct OVOE1 target gene in esophageal epithelial cells.
- Applicant predicted 4 OVOE1 binding sites up upstream of the SPINK7 TSS (FIG 2C).
- Applicant tested the specificity of this response by subjecting the SPINK7 deletion constructs to FICZ activation in the presence or absent of OVOE1 overexpression (FIG 2C). Consisting with previous results, overexpression of OVOE1 induced promoter activity in cells that were transfected with the 4.5 kb construct of SPINK7. The promoter activity was further induced in the OVOE1 overexpressing cells after FICZ stimulation (FIG 2D).

- OVOL1 shifted the mobility of the fluorescent probe in all probes, except the -3379 probe (FIG 2F).
- Un-labelled (cold) wt competitors that contains the predicted binding site at 4139, -2078, and -208 bp inhibited the mobility shift (FIG 2F).
- a mutant cold competitor that contains the predicted binding site at -4139 bp (GTGGCAC) failed to inhibit the mobility shift (FIG 2F).
- rabbit administration of an antihuman OVOL1 antibody resulted in a supershift of the -2078 probe.
- Applicant generated nuclear extracts of HEK-293T cells overexpressing OVOL1.
- Applicant then depleted OVOL1 expression in EPC2 cells by stably transduction with a vector expressing either shRNA targeting OVOL1 or non-silencing control (NSC) shRNA.
- OVOL1 silenced cells had > 2-fold decrease in OVOL1 mRNA expression compared to NSC-treated cells (FIG 3A).
- OVOL1 silenced cells had increased TSLP release compared to NSC- treated cells after PolyLC stimulation, (FIG 3B).
- the increased TSLP production of OVOL1 silenced cells may be partially mediated by decreased expression of SPINK7.
- OVOL1 silenced cells that were differentiated in ALI culture system had 3-fold decrease in SPINK7 expression compared to differentiated NSC-treated cells (FIG 3C) and revealed barrier impairment as asses by Trans Epithelial Electrical Resistance (TEER; FIG 3D). These data suggest that OVOL1 expression is critical for maintaining SPINK7 expression, barrier integrity and controlling innate cytokine production by epithelial cells.
- Applicant subsequently generated OVOL1 gene deleted cells using clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/Cas9 genomic editing (FIG 10A,B).
- CRISPR clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats
- FIG. 4A Analysis of OVOL1 protein revealed that OVOL1 is expressed in epithelial cells (FIG 4B). Applicant noted that OVOL1 intracellular localization was changed in different clusters of the epithelium. In basal and suprabasal layers of the epithelium, OVOL1 was localized to the cells’ nuclei while in the squamous epithelium, OVOL1 intracellular localization was transformed to cytoplasmic expression (FIG 4B). Analysis of OVOL1 expression in EoE biopsies revealed a marked decrease in the protein expression compared to control biopsies (FIG 4C).
- AHR is activated in response to a variety of ligands such as environmental toxicants including vehicle exhaust and cigarette smoke, dietary compounds (i.e., flavonoids, indole-3-carbinol derivatives, extracts from fruits, vegetables especially cruciferous), products from commensal bacteria (such as FICZ, kynurenine and Butyrate), tryptophan metabolism and drugs including proton pump inhibitors, which are interesting used to treat EoE. Applicant then asked which inducers of the AHR pathway might regulate SPINK7 expression via OVOL1.
- environmental toxicants including vehicle exhaust and cigarette smoke, dietary compounds (i.e., flavonoids, indole-3-carbinol derivatives, extracts from fruits, vegetables especially cruciferous), products from commensal bacteria (such as FICZ, kynurenine and Butyrate), tryptophan metabolism and drugs including proton pump inhibitors, which are interesting used to treat EoE.
- Applicant then asked which inducers of
- Applicant stimulated EPC2 cells with either FICZ, 2-(F H-indole-3'- carbonyl)-thiazole-4-carboxylic acid methyl ester (ITE), indole-3-carbinol (I3C), Omeprazole, Benzo [a] Pyrene (B[a]P), Urolithin A (UroA) and Quercitin.
- Omeprazole, B [a]P, Quercitin and ITE efficiently stimulated the expression of the AHR target gene CYP1A1 and SPINK7 expression (FIG 5A,B).
- Applicant next aimed to determine if SPINK7 up-regulation was AHR-dependent.
- OVOL1 was redistributed between the cytoplasmic fraction and the nuclear fraction (FIG 5D).
- Applicant then performed transcriptomic analysis of FICZ- stimulated cells. This analysis revealed 842 dysregulated genes (FIG 5E).
- the up-regulated genes were enriched for functional pathways involved in epithelial differentiation such as IVL (encoding for the barrier gene and differentiation marker, involucrin), late cornified envelope protein family including LCE3E and LCE3D, and small proline rich proteins including SPRR2G, SPRR1A, SPRR2A (FIG 5F).
- FICZ-up regulated genes were also enriched for inflammatory responses, cell proliferation, membrane assembly, response to lipids and cell motility (FIG 5F).
- FICZ dysregulated genes More than 18% of the FICZ dysregulated genes, overlapped with the EoE transcriptome (156 genes out of 842 FICZ-regulated genes; FIG 11A). Most genes that were up-regulated in the EoE transcriptome were down-regulated by FICZ and vice versa (FIG 11 A). The overlapped genes were enriched for cornified envelope proteins (FIG 11B). This suggests that loss of epithelial differentiation as observed in EoE biopsies, can be partially reversed by AHR activation.
- IL-4 and IL- 13 which are Th2 cytokines with established roles in atopic diseases inducing EoE pathology (Blanchard, 2010, Leung, 2015, Hirano, 2020) on OVOL1 intracellular localization.
- OVOL1 was primarily localized to cytoplasmic vesicles which were bordered by the membranal protein desmoglein 1 (DSG1) (FIG 6A).
- DSG1 membranal protein desmoglein 1
- FICZ stimulation induced nuclear mobilization of OVOL1
- IL-4 or IL- 13 stimulation prevented the FICZ-induced OVOL1 mobilization to the nucleus in OVOL1 overexpressing cells (FIG 6A).
- IL-4 and IL- 13 significantly decreased the SPINK7 promoter activity in OVOL1 overexpressing cells that were stimulated with FICZ (FIG 6B,C). Because cells that were differentiated in the ALI culture system express high endogenous levels of OVOL1, Applicant analyzed the effect of IL-4 and IL-13 on differentiated cells. In unstimulated cells, OVOL1 was mostly nuclear and remained nuclear after FICZ stimulation (FIG 6D). IL-4 or IL- 13 stimulation promoted OVOL1 translocation from the nucleus to the cytoplasm (FIG 3F).
- FICZ stimulation increased the endogenous SPINK7 expression (FIG 6E) and IL- 13 decreased SPINK7 expression when the cells were stimulated with FICZ (FIG 6E).
- FICZ and IL-13 stimulations As a control for FICZ and IL-13 stimulations, CYP1A1 and CCL26 expression were analyzed respectively (FIG 6F,G).
- FICZ stimulation was able to decrease the IL-13- dependent CCL26 expression by 2.7-fold (p ⁇ 0.0001; FIG 6G).
- Transcriptomic analysis of FICZ, IL- 13 and FICZ+IL-13 treated cells compared with untreated cells revealed that the 4 groups of treatment were significantly different (FIG 6H).
- the majority of the IL- 13 dysregulated genes (55%) overlapped with the IL-13 + FICZ transcriptome (FIG 61). While only less than 10% of the IL- 13 + FICZ transcriptome overlapped with the IL- 13 transcriptome (FIG 61).
- IL- 13 can regulate OVOL1 expression.
- OVOL1 mRNA expression was comparable between IL-13 stimulation and control cells (FIG 7B). Consistent with the protein level, DSG1 mRNA was decreased after IL- 13 stimulation compared with untreated cells (FIG 7B). Suggesting that nuclear OVOL1 is a stable protein, while IL- 13 mediated nuclear transport inhibition promotes loss of cytoplasmic OVOL1 protein expression.
- IL-13 may stimulate cytoplasmic retention of OVOL1 and loss of OVOL1 in EoE patients compared with controls (FIG 4 C,D).
- the EoE transcriptome is enriched with proteases and shows dysregulation between proteases and protease inhibitors (Azouz, 2018, Rochman, 2018 Rochman, 2017) Therefore, Applicant hypothesized that OVOL1 may be post-transcriptionally modified by proteases in the esophagus of EoE patients. Applicant then asked which genes are co-expressed with OVOL1 in the same esophageal clusters.
- RNAseq analysis revealed that CAPN14 and OVOL1 are co-expressed in the same cellular cluster in the esophagus (FIG 7C).
- the epithelial clusters that co-expressed OVOL1 and CAPN14 were enriched with SPINK7 and correspond to differentiated epithelial cells that express differentiation markers (i.e., FLG, MUC22) and esophageal enriched genes (i.e., MUC22, MAL, KLK13; FIG 7C).
- differentiation markers i.e., FLG, MUC22
- esophageal enriched genes i.e., MUC22, MAL, KLK13; FIG 7C.
- calpain-14 is an esophageal epithelial specific cysteine protease that is overexpressed in esophageal biopsies from EoE patients compared to controls and is regulated by IL-13 ⁇ Davis, 2016 #121;Kottyan, 2014 #123 ⁇ .
- Inducible CAPN14 expression in differentiated esophageal epithelial cells revealed a marked reduction in OVOL1 protein expression (FIG 7D).
- constitutive expression of CAPN14 by CAPN14-GFP vector transduction, decreased the expression of OVOL1 compared with control GFP vector transduction (FIG 7G), indicating that the reduction in OVOL1 protein expression resulted from CAPN14 expression and not as a result of dox treatment.
- IL- 13 treatment decreased OVOL1 expression in the CAPN14-GFP overexpressing cells (FIG 7G).
- IL-13 stimulation and CAPN14 expression decrease OVOL1 protein expression.
- Applicant then hypothesized that nuclear mobilization of OVOL1 by AHR protects OVOL1, while IL-13- mediated cytoplasmic retention of OVOL1, promotes degradation of OVOL1 by cytoplasmic proteases such as calpin-14.
- Applicant performed a biochemical fractionation of cellular proteins that differentiated the nuclear proteins from the rest of the cellular proteins which contain the cytosol and other organelles (here refer to cytosol).
- Applicant then incubated recombinant OVOL1 protein with cytosolic or nuclear proteins.
- Applicant then investigated if AHR ligands can stimulate esophageal SPINK7 expression ex vivo in a murine model. Esophagi were collected from C57BL/6 mice and were stimulated with AHR ligands. Six hrs of stimulation, were sufficient for detection of CYP1A1 induction, indicating that AHR pathway was activated (FIG 8A). At the same time, SPINK7 mRNA was induced by 10-fold (FIG 8B).
- the data presented here identify a complexed regulatory network that controls SPINK7 expression in esophageal epithelial cells. Applicant demonstrated that AHR regulates the expression of SPINK7 via OVOL1 and that IL-4 and IL- 13 inhibit this pathway by inhibiting the OVOL1 nuclear mobilization (FIG 12). The cysteine protease calpain-14 inhibits SPINK7 expression by post-translational modifications of OVOL1.
- IL-13 can potentially inhibit SPINK7 expression by 2 mechanisms; first, by inhibiting OVOL1 nuclear translocation which prevents OVOL1 from binding to its target genes and decreasing OVOL1 stability, and second, by inducing calpain-14 expression, which in turn degrades OVOL1 and prevents SPINK7 expression.
- IL- 13 and calpain-14 are overexpressed in the esophagus of EoE patients compared with control individuals and were suggested to be major drivers in EoE pathogenesis; IL- 13 induces epithelial cell transcriptional changes that overlap with the EoE transcriptome (the list of genes that are altered in EoE esophageal biopsies compared to control biopsies). Its importance in disease pathogenesis is implicated by the positive effects of anti-IL-13 treatment (QAX576 and RPC4046) in EoE.
- Calpain-14 is an esophageal- specific protease, encoded by the CAPN14 gene which is located in the strongest associated EoE risk locus (i.e., 2p23). Calpain-14 is up regulated by exposure of esophageal epithelial cells to IL- 13 and has been shown to regulate epithelial barrier homeostasis and repair. Therefore, Applicant’ s findings reveal an altered molecular pathway which is relevant in disease state. OVOL1 protein expression was lost in esophageal biopsies from EoE patients compared to controls. However, OVOL1 mRNA expression levels were comparable between EoE patients and controls.
- OVOL1 controls SPINK7 expression.
- OVOL1 is an enriched esophageal transcription factor that is induced during esophageal epithelial differentiation (Uhlen, 2015, Tsuji, 2017).
- OVOL1 regulates expression of barrier genes such as FLG and LOR in the skin (Tsuji, 2018).
- variants in OVOL1 gene associate with atopic dermatitis, a type 2 allergic disease that is characterized by barrier impairment of the skin (Marenholz, 2015, Hirota, 2012, Paternoster, 2011).
- Applicant’s data demonstrates that OVOL1 depletion decreases SPINK7 expression and promotes impaired esophageal barrier function and cytokine production in vitro. Therefore, it is suggested that OVOL1 has a key role in regulating esophageal homeostasis and immune tolerance.
- AHR as an esophageal epithelial sensor that promotes the activation of OVOL1 which then induce transcription program of differentiation and barrier genes including SPINK7 and FLG.
- AHR is activated in response to many ligands such as vehicle exhaust and cigarette smoke, dietary compounds (i.e. flavonoids, indole-3 -carbinol derivatives, extracts from fruits and vegetables especially cruciferous), products from commensal bacteria and tryptophan metabolism (Moura-Alves, 2014, Rothhammer, 2019).
- AHR is capable of initiating distinct signaling pathways in response to different ligands (Quintana, 2008). In this way, AHR senses host/microbiome dysbiosis, dietary compounds, drugs and environmental toxicant and initiates an appropriate cellular response.
- AHR is a member of the basic helix-loop-helix per-Amt-sim (bHLH/PAS) protein family.
- AHR is trapped in a cytosolic multiprotein complex consisting of heat shock protein 90, tyrosine kinase c-src, and other co-chaperones.
- AHR translocates from the cytoplasm into the nucleus upon ligand binding and dimerizes with AHR nuclear translocator (ARNT).
- the AHR /AHR ligand/ ARNT complex recognizes promoters containing specific enhancer sequences termed xenobiotic responsive elements (XRE) and then activates the transcription of target genes such as phase I and phase II detoxification enzymes (cytochrome P450 (CYP1A1)) (Rothhammer, 2019).
- XRE xenobiotic responsive elements
- cytochrome P450 CYP1A1
- Applicant’s data suggests that the AHR pathway is dysregulated in the esophagus of EoE patients compared to control patients.
- phase II enzymes were markedly decreased (FIG 13).
- Applicant’ s data reveals a cross talk between the AHR/OVOL1/SPINK7 pathway, the type 2 cytokines, IL-4 and IL-13 and calpain-14.
- Applicant propose that local fluctuations in SPINK7, that curtails inflammatory responses in the squamous epithelium, particularly in the esophagus, can be controlled by environmental cues that are converged by AHR.
- Applicant have demonstrated that esophageal SPINK7 expression can be modulated by food supplements that induce AHR signaling. Therefore, Applicant propose that modulation of SPINK7 expression by AHR ligand supplement may be useful for a new avenue to reconsider AHR as a pharmacological target for mechanism-based drugs for food allergic diseases.

BACKGROUND
[0004] Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is an inflammatory process leading to eosinophil migration to esophageal tissue and is considered the leading cause of dysphagia and food impaction in adults and children. The incidence of EoE is increasing, in part due to the increasing frequency of allergies and better diagnostic tools, but remains underdiagnosed and undertreated. Patients with EoE suffer from physical symptoms such as heartburn, abdominal pain, dysphagia. The prevalence of EoE ranges from 5 to more than 80 cases per 100,000 inhabitants depending on the assessment method; in the United States it is estimated that prevalence of EoE occurs in 56.7/100,000 persons. (See, e.g., Kanikowska et al., Int J Mol Sci. 2021 ;22(19): 10830. doi:10.3390/ijms221910830) Accordingly, there is a need for improved methods and compositions for the treatment of EoE.

[0018] FIG 12. A regulatory network controls SPINK7 expression which is influenced by the exposome. AHR is activated and influenced by diet nutrients, environmental toxicant, microbiome composition, tryptophan metabolites and drugs. When AHR is activated, it promotes translocation of OVOL1 to the nucleus which in turn promotes SPINK7 expression. SPINK7 expression promotes epithelial differentiation, barrier function, decreased proteolytic activity and decreased TSLP production. IL-4 and IL- 13, inhibit OVOL1 nuclear translocation and therefore, repress SPINK7 expression. IL- 13 -stimulated CAPN14 expression decreases OVOL1 protein expression and SPINK7 transcription.

[0049] In one aspect, a mucoadhesive agent used in an oral pharmaceutical composition described herein imparts an increased viscosity upon the oral pharmaceutical composition (e.g., compared to an otherwise identical composition lacking the mucoadhesive agent).
[0050] In some aspects, the composition is a formulation used to treat a targeted portion of the gastrointestinal tract (e.g., the esophagus). The composition may comprise (or is administered in) a volume used to coat a targeted portion of the gastrointestinal tract (e.g., the esophagus). In certain aspects, the volume used to coat a targeted portion of the gastrointestinal tract (e.g., the esophagus) is a volume that is sufficient to coat the targeted portion. In some aspects, an appropriate palatable dosage is in a volume that coats or at least partially coats the esophagus, and in one aspect, the volume coats or at least partially coats the esophagus and delivers the AHR agonist to the affected areas, for example, the esophagus, a portion of the esophagus, the upper esophagus, or the lower esophagus. In certain aspects, the volume of a composition administered can provide a desired coating characteristic of a composition. As such, in some aspects, provided herein is a composition comprising an AHR agonist wherein the composition comprises (or is administered in) a volume sufficient to coat a targeted portion of the gastrointestinal tract (e.g., the esophagus).
[0051] Viscosity
[0052] Excipients, such as, for example, those listed herein, may be included in the composition to increase the viscosity of the delivered composition. The liquid viscosity may be increased in the oral form, or the excipient may increase the viscosity of the dissolved form of a tablet. Those of ordinary skill in the art will recognize that the viscosity should be at a level that is sufficient to deliver an effective amount of the composition to the esophagus, for example, in an amount that may coat the esophagus. Also, the viscosity should be at a level that may be given orally, thus not so thick that it is either too difficult to swallow, causes gagging, or is unpalatable. Those of ordinary skill in the art may determine the viscosity of the compositions and may thus determine appropriate ranges. One method of determining whether the composition is sufficiently viscous is by determining whether the
inflammation, or eosinophilic infiltration, of the esophagus is reduced after treatment with the AHR agonist.
[0053] Viscosity may be determined by any method that will measure the resistance to shear offered by the substance or preparation. Many viscometers are available to those in the pharmaceutical field, and include those built by, for example, Brookfield. Viscosity may be, for example, measured at room temperature, at about 20-25 degrees Celsius, or at about 37 degrees Celsius to mimic body temperature. The viscosity of a liquid generally decreases as the temperature is raised. In some embodiments of the invention, the viscosity is about the viscosity of about 1 grams, about 2 grams, about 3 grams, about 4 grams, about 5 grams, about 6 grams, about 7 grams, about 8 grams, about 9 grams, about 10 grams, about 11 grams, about 12 grams, about 13 grams, about 14 grams, about 15 grams, about 1 to about 5 grams, about 1 to about 50 grams, or about 5 to about 25 grams of sucralose (Splenda®, Distributed By: McNeil Nutritionals, LLC, Fort Washington, Pa. 19034-2299), or about 7 to about 20 grams of sucralose (Splenda®), or about 5 to about 15 grams of sucralose (Splenda®), or about or about 7 to about 15 grams of sucralose (Splenda®), or about 8 to about 12 grams of sucralose (Splenda®), or about 10 to about 11 grams of sucralose (Splenda®), added to 4 ml water, at 25 degrees Celsius. In an illustrative embodiment, the viscosity is about the viscosity of 10 grams of sucralose (Splenda®) added to 4 ml of water, at 25 degrees Celsius. In other embodiments, the viscosity is about the viscosity of 5 to 20 grams of sucralose (Splenda®) in 8 ml total liquid volume, at 25 degrees Celsius. In other embodiments, the viscosity is about the viscosity of 5 to 15 grams of sucralose (Splenda®) in an 8 ml total liquid volume, at room temperature.

[0078] EXAMPLE 1. AHR serves as an esophageal sensor which activates OVOL1 and promotes SPINK7 expression in response to environmental cues
[0079] The epithelium is at the forefront of the protective innate immune system. In the squamous epithelium of the skin and esophagus, expression of antiserine proteases of the kazal type (SPINK) provide homeostatic control of inflammation. Genetic loss of SPINK5 or acquired loss of SPINK7 has profound pro-inflammatory consequences, yet there is a limited understanding of the factors that regulate their basal expression direct responsiveness to inflammatory stimuli. Herein, Applicant has identified the transcription factor, Ovo Like Transcriptional Repressor 1 (OVOL1) as an esophageal selective gene that regulates SPINK7 promoter activity and expression. Whereas overexpression of OVOL1 increased SPINK7 expression in a promoter reporter assay (P < 0.0001), its depletion decreased SPINK7 expression (P = 0.0004), impaired epithelial barrier (P < 0.0001) and increased production of the pro-atopy inflammatory cytokine thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP; P = 0.001). Mechanistically, ligands of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) induced OVOL1 activation and its nuclear translocation which in turn promoted epithelial cell differentiation, barrier function and SPINK7 expression. Conversely, AHR antagonists inhibited SPINK7 expression induced by a variety of stimuli including dietary compounds, microbiota metabolites and pharmacological agents. Interleukin (IL)-4 and IL-13 abolished AHR ligand induced OVOL1 nuclear translocation and SPINK7 expression. Stimulation with IL- 13 abrogated the nuclear translocation of OVOL1 and promoted enhanced degradation of OVOL1 protein in the cytoplasm. This effect of IL- 13 was dependent on the cysteine protease calpain-14.
Translational studies demonstrated a decrease (P < 0.02) in OVOL1 protein expression in patients with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). This data suggests that AHR may serve as an esophageal sensor, mediates its action via OVOLl-induced SPINK7 transcription, and that IL-4 and IL- 13 repress this pathway in EoE. Therefore, activation of the AHR pathway can serve as an intervention strategy for maintaining proper epithelial barrier function by inducing SPINK7 expression, promoting epithelial differentiation and controlling innate immune responses.
[0080] The epithelium is at the forefront of the protective innate immune system. In the squamous epithelium of the skin and esophagus, expression of the anti-serine proteases of the kazal type (SPINK) provide homeostatic control of inflammation. Loss of SPINK5 and/or
SPINK7, the two main SPINK family members expressed in the squamous epithelium, leads to profound consequences including impaired epithelial barrier function and elicitation of allergic inflammation in the skin and/or esophagus. For example, experimental depletion of SPINK7 in esophageal epithelial cells is sufficient to induce barrier dysfunction, elicit marked production of pro-inflammatory and pro-atopy cytokines and activate eosinophils by the urokinase plasminogen activator pathway. Similarly, rare homozygous mutations of SPINK5 as well as spink5 experimental gene deletion in mice, are sufficient to elicit loss of epithelial barrier integrity, and pro-inflammatory and pro-atopy responses including atopic dermatitis and EoE in vivo. Yet, there is little data about how these SPINKs are regulated under basal conditions, how it becomes a surveillance constituent of the squamous epithelium, and the mechanism of acquired SPINK7 loss that occurs in allergic inflammation.
[0081] Epithelial cells use sensors to monitor the external and internal environment. For example, pattern recognition receptors including Toll-like receptors (TLRs) and protease- activated receptors (PARs) in the epidermis sense pathogenic insults. Once the sensor received an input (i.e., recognition of molecules from pathogens, microbiota dysbiosis, proteolytic activity), a cellular decision is made accordingly. Distinct signals will promote diverse cellular responses which result in sealing the barrier tightly against toxins or loosen the barrier to enable immune cells to infiltrate and fight pathogens. Despite the importance of investigating such sensor molecules, a master epithelial sensor in the esophagus has not yet been identified.
[0082] Herein, Applicant investigated the regulatory mechanism that controls SPINK7 expression. SPINK7 expression was elevated during epithelial cell differentiation induced by air liquid interface (ALI) culture and/or modification of calcium concentrations. Histone 3 acetylation marks suggested the importance of a putative binding motif for the C2H2 zinc finger transcription factor, Ovo Like Transcriptional Repressor 1 (OVOL1), an esophageal enriched gene. Indeed, overexpression and repression of OVOL1 regulated SPINK7 promoter activity. Mechanistically, a variety of AHR ligands, including proton-pump inhibitors, dietary compounds, metabolites produced by bacteria and particles found in the air, modulated OVOL1 activation, nuclear localization and subsequent SPINK7 expression. Furthermore, the type 2 cytokines IL-4 and IL-13 (inducers of allergic responses) repressed OVOL1 activation via an AHR-dependent mechanism. Additionally, the product of the chief EoE susceptibility
locus (2p23), calpain-14, an intracellular regulatory protease induced by IL-13 in esophageal epithelial cells, post-transcriptionally modified OVOL1 levels. Translational studies demonstrated a marked lost expression of OVOL1 protein in esophageal biopsies of EoE patients compared to control patients. AHR may therefore serves as a sensor for environmental signals and has potential to rapidly control the esophageal epithelium fate by controlling SPINK7 levels via OVOL1 activation. The disclosed dataset highlights a potential role of the AHR/OVOL1/SPINK7 pathway in pathoetiology of EoE. As such, modulation of this pathway (e.g., supplementing AHR ligands) may be therapeutic in EoE and related allergic diseases.
[0083] Results
[0084] SPINK7 expression is induced during epithelial differentiation
[0085] Applicant analyzed SPINK7 expression in high confluent cultures of esophageal epithelial progenitor cell line (EPC2) cells, a condition that induce cellular differentiation. SPINK7 expression was induced under high confluency conditions compared to low confluency conditions (FIG 1A). SPINK7 expression was further increased in a high calcium (1.8 mM) media compared to a low calcium media (0.09 mM) (FIG 1A). Epigenetic analysis of the SPINK7 promoter region of EPC2 cells, revealed an increased in K27H3 acetylation mark in the 2-4 kb region from the SPINK7 transcription start site (TSS) in high confluence conditions compared to low confluence conditions (FIG IB). The highest K27 acetylation mark was observed in cells that were grown in high confluency and high calcium (1.8 mM; FIG IB).
[0086] Identification of the SPINK7 promoter region
[0087] Applicant cloned the 4.5 kb region upstream to the TSS of SPINK7 into a vector that contain nano-luciferase reporter (SPINK7). As a negative control, Applicant used a promoterless nano-luciferase vector (control). The 4.5 kb sequence was selected based on transcriptional and epigenetic data from FIG IB and from ENCODE and CisBP datasets (Yanez-Cuna, 2012 and Weirauch, 2014). EPC2 cells were grown at high density and in high calcium media to induce cell differentiation and then were transiently co-transfected with firefly luciferase vector (to control for transfection efficiency) and either SPINK7 or control vectors. The SPINK7-transfected cells had on average about 340-fold increase in the
luminescence signal compared to cells transfected with the empty vector (p < 0.0001; FIG 1C). Indicating that this region of the SPINK7 gene has promoter activity under these conditions.
[0088] Applicant then investigated SPINK7 promoter activity in a range of calcium concentrations. Calcium ions increased SPINK7 promoter activity in a dose dependent manner and reached a plateau at 1.8mM of calcium (FIG ID). As expected, no difference was observed in the empty vector activity in different calcium concentrations (FIG 9A).
[0089] Applicant subsequently considered the minimal sequence required for promoter induction. Applicant tested various construct lengths (FIG IE). The promoter activity of all reporter constructs was sufficient to drive promoter activity including the shortest construct with the first 1 kb sequence from the 5’ TSS of SPINK7, which was sufficient to drive promoter activity in the high calcium condition compared to the empty vector (80-fold increase, p < 0.0002; FIG IE). The luciferase activity of the cells transfected with the 4.5 and 4 kb constructs increased by 3 and 2-fold compared to the luciferase activity of the cells that were transfected with the 1 kb construct respectively (p = 0.0004, p = 0.0001 respectively; FIG IE). The luciferase activity of the cells transfected with the 2 and 3 kb constructs were not significantly different compared to the luciferase activity of the cells that were transfected with the 1 kb construct (FIG IE). In a low calcium media, low promoter activity was observed in all the constructs with no difference between the 1 kb and the 4 or 4.5 kb (FIG 9B). In the 4.5 and 4 kb constructs the promoter activities were increased by 7 and 4-fold respectively in the high calcium media compared to the low calcium media (p = 0.05 and p = 0.0003 respectively; FIG IF). The 1, 2, and 3 kb constructs were not affected by high calcium (FIG IF). These collective data suggest that induction of cellular differentiation (i.e., high calcium and high confluency conditions) promotes SPINK7 promoter activity.
[0090] Candidate approach reveals that the transcription factor, OVOL1 regulates SPINK7 expression
[0091] Applicant asked which transcription factors (TFs) regulate SPINK7 promoter activity. Analysis of SPINK7 promoter using CisBP revealed 36 TFs that are predicted to bind to SPINK7 promoter (data not shown). Applicant intersected this list with a list of TFs that are induced during esophageal epithelial differentiation and with a list of esophageal specific
genes. Additionally, Applicant analyzed which of these TFs are dysregulated in EoE patients compare to control patients. Based on these analyses, Applicant transiently overexpressed 4 TFs (i.e., OVOL1, VDR, PO2F3 and PRDM1) and assessed their effect on SPINK7 promoter activity compared to control cells that were transiently transfected with an empty vector. Overexpression of VDR (in the presence or absence of the VDR ligand calcipo triol), PO2F3 and PRDM1 did not affect SPINK7 promoter activity (FIG 2A). In contrast, overexpression of OVOE1 increased SPINK7 promoter activity by 2.4-fold (p = 0.0006; FIG 2A). Indeed, western blot analysis confirmed that OVOE1 protein was overexpressed in the OVOE1 transfected cells compared to control cells (FIG 2B). Because it had been shown that activation of AHR induces activation of OVOE1, Applicant stimulated the OVOE1 overexpressing cells with the AHR ligand, 6-formylindolo(3,2-b)carbazole (FICZ). FICZ induced a 5-fold increase in SPINK7 promoter activity in OVOE1 over expressing cells compared to control cells (p = 0.0003) and significantly increased the SPINK7 promoter activity compared to unstimulated OVOE1 overexpressing cells (2-fold increase, p = 0.04; FIG 2A).
[0092] OVOE1 binds to SPINK7 promoter
[0093] Applicant next examined whether SPINK7 is a direct OVOE1 target gene in esophageal epithelial cells. Applicant predicted 4 OVOE1 binding sites up upstream of the SPINK7 TSS (FIG 2C). Applicant tested the specificity of this response by subjecting the SPINK7 deletion constructs to FICZ activation in the presence or absent of OVOE1 overexpression (FIG 2C). Consisting with previous results, overexpression of OVOE1 induced promoter activity in cells that were transfected with the 4.5 kb construct of SPINK7. The promoter activity was further induced in the OVOE1 overexpressing cells after FICZ stimulation (FIG 2D). Cells that were transfected with the 4 kb construct had promoter activity that was comparable with the 4.5 kb construct. In contrast, the promoter activity of cells that were transfected with the 1, 2 or 3 kb of SPINK7 constructs were not markedly induced by OVOE1 overexpression or by OVOE1 overexpression and FICZ stimulation (FIG 2D). Applicant tested the specificity of this response by constructing OVOE1 site mutants and assessing SPINK7-nEUC promoter reporter construct activation (FIG 2E). SPINK7- nEUC activation was significantly decreased in the OVOE1 site mutant in -3379 bp when ACTGTTCCC sequence was replaced with CAGTGGAAA (FIG 2E). In contrast, OVOE1
site mutant in -4139 bp, when TGTTACA sequence was replaced with GTGGCAC, did not affect the SPINK7-nLUC activation (FIG 2E). These data suggests that the -3379 bp region from the SPINK7 TSS is important for OVOL1 binding. Using an Electrophoretic Mobility- Shift Assay (EMSA), Applicant examined OVOL1 capacity to bind to the SPINK7 gene promoter. Applicant analyzed the binding of recombinant human OVOL1 protein to a fluorescent DNA probe corresponds to the -4139, -3379, -2078, and -208 bp of the SPINK7 promoter. Unexpectedly, OVOL1 shifted the mobility of the fluorescent probe in all probes, except the -3379 probe (FIG 2F). Un-labelled (cold) wt competitors that contains the predicted binding site at 4139, -2078, and -208 bp inhibited the mobility shift (FIG 2F). A mutant cold competitor that contains the predicted binding site at -4139 bp (GTGGCAC) failed to inhibit the mobility shift (FIG 2F). In addition, rabbit administration of an antihuman OVOL1 antibody, resulted in a supershift of the -2078 probe. To examine the possibility that more cellular co-factors are required for the binding of OVOL1, Applicant generated nuclear extracts of HEK-293T cells overexpressing OVOL1. The nuclear extracts shifted the -3379 probe, while cold wt probe, dose dependently inhibited the shifted band (FIG 2G). A mutant cold competitor that contains the predicted binding site at -3379 bp (CAGTGGAAA) failed to inhibit the mobility shift (FIG 2G). These collective data suggest that OVOL1 binding to four sites in the SPINK7 promoter may be required for SPINK7 expression.
[0094] Loss of OVOL1 promotes impaired barrier function and cytokine production
[0095] Applicant then depleted OVOL1 expression in EPC2 cells by stably transduction with a vector expressing either shRNA targeting OVOL1 or non-silencing control (NSC) shRNA. OVOL1 silenced cells had > 2-fold decrease in OVOL1 mRNA expression compared to NSC-treated cells (FIG 3A). Consistent with the phenotype of SPINK7 depleted cells which were previously demonstrated by Applicant to produce increased levels of TSLP upon polyLC stimulation, OVOL1 silenced cells had increased TSLP release compared to NSC- treated cells after PolyLC stimulation, (FIG 3B). The increased TSLP production of OVOL1 silenced cells may be partially mediated by decreased expression of SPINK7. OVOL1 silenced cells that were differentiated in ALI culture system had 3-fold decrease in SPINK7 expression compared to differentiated NSC-treated cells (FIG 3C) and revealed barrier impairment as asses by Trans Epithelial Electrical Resistance (TEER; FIG 3D). These data
suggest that OVOL1 expression is critical for maintaining SPINK7 expression, barrier integrity and controlling innate cytokine production by epithelial cells.
[0096] Applicant subsequently generated OVOL1 gene deleted cells using clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/Cas9 genomic editing (FIG 10A,B). OVOL1 CRISPR/Cas9 deficient cells that were differentiated in ALI culture system had 10-fold decrease in SPINK7 expression compared to differentiated control EPC2 cells (p = 0.0004; FIG 3E) and revealed barrier impairment as asses by TEER (FIG 3F).
[0097] OVOL1 expression is lost in EoE
[0098] Analysis of OVOL1 mRNA expression did not reveal any significant difference between EoE biopsies and controls (FIG 4A). Analysis of OVOL1 protein revealed that OVOL1 is expressed in epithelial cells (FIG 4B). Applicant noted that OVOL1 intracellular localization was changed in different clusters of the epithelium. In basal and suprabasal layers of the epithelium, OVOL1 was localized to the cells’ nuclei while in the squamous epithelium, OVOL1 intracellular localization was transformed to cytoplasmic expression (FIG 4B). Analysis of OVOL1 expression in EoE biopsies revealed a marked decrease in the protein expression compared to control biopsies (FIG 4C). Western blot analysis of OVOL1 confirmed that OVOL1 is decreased by 10-fold in esophageal biopsies from EoE patients compared to control patients (FIG 4D). These collective data suggest that OVOL1 protein is deficient in the esophagus of EoE patients compared to control individual.
[0099] Environmental and internal cues promote SPINK7 expression in vitro
[00100] AHR is activated in response to a variety of ligands such as environmental toxicants including vehicle exhaust and cigarette smoke, dietary compounds (i.e., flavonoids, indole-3-carbinol derivatives, extracts from fruits, vegetables especially cruciferous), products from commensal bacteria (such as FICZ, kynurenine and Butyrate), tryptophan metabolism and drugs including proton pump inhibitors, which are interesting used to treat EoE. Applicant then asked which inducers of the AHR pathway might regulate SPINK7 expression via OVOL1. Applicant stimulated EPC2 cells with either FICZ, 2-(F H-indole-3'- carbonyl)-thiazole-4-carboxylic acid methyl ester (ITE), indole-3-carbinol (I3C), Omeprazole, Benzo [a] Pyrene (B[a]P), Urolithin A (UroA) and Quercitin. Omeprazole, B [a]P, Quercitin and ITE efficiently stimulated the expression of the AHR target gene
CYP1A1 and SPINK7 expression (FIG 5A,B). Applicant next aimed to determine if SPINK7 up-regulation was AHR-dependent. To test this, cells were pre-treated with the AHR antagonist, N-(2-(3H-Indol-3-yl)ethyl)-9-isopropyl-2-(5-methyl-3-pyridyl)-7H-purin-6-amine (GNF-351).
[00101] Blocking AHR signaling by GNF351, blocked the SPINK7 upregulation induced by all ligands except ITE (FIG 5B). Next, Applicant asked if the AHR-ligands promote OVOL1 nuclear translocation. FICZ and ITE induced OVOL1 nuclear mobilization after 1 hr of stimulation, while 1 hr of omeprazole stimulation was not of sufficient to promote OVOL1 nuclear mobilization as assessed by immunostaining (FIG 5C). By 24 hours, omeprazole induced nuclear mobilization of OVOL1 (FIG 5C). Nuclear fractionation of the cells revealed that OVOL1 was predominantly localized in the cytoplasmic fraction. After FICZ stimulation, OVOL1 was redistributed between the cytoplasmic fraction and the nuclear fraction (FIG 5D). Applicant then performed transcriptomic analysis of FICZ- stimulated cells. This analysis revealed 842 dysregulated genes (FIG 5E). The up-regulated genes were enriched for functional pathways involved in epithelial differentiation such as IVL (encoding for the barrier gene and differentiation marker, involucrin), late cornified envelope protein family including LCE3E and LCE3D, and small proline rich proteins including SPRR2G, SPRR1A, SPRR2A (FIG 5F). FICZ-up regulated genes were also enriched for inflammatory responses, cell proliferation, membrane assembly, response to lipids and cell motility (FIG 5F). More than 18% of the FICZ dysregulated genes, overlapped with the EoE transcriptome (156 genes out of 842 FICZ-regulated genes; FIG 11A). Most genes that were up-regulated in the EoE transcriptome were down-regulated by FICZ and vice versa (FIG 11 A). The overlapped genes were enriched for cornified envelope proteins (FIG 11B). This suggests that loss of epithelial differentiation as observed in EoE biopsies, can be partially reversed by AHR activation.
[00102] IL-13 and IL-4 regulate OVOL1 activation
[00103] Applicant aimed to determine the effect of IL-4 and IL- 13 (which are Th2 cytokines with established roles in atopic diseases inducing EoE pathology (Blanchard, 2010, Leung, 2015, Hirano, 2020) on OVOL1 intracellular localization. In unstimulated cells that overexpress OVOL1, OVOL1 was primarily localized to cytoplasmic vesicles which were bordered by the membranal protein desmoglein 1 (DSG1) (FIG 6A). FICZ stimulation
induced nuclear mobilization of OVOL1, while IL-4 or IL- 13 stimulation prevented the FICZ-induced OVOL1 mobilization to the nucleus in OVOL1 overexpressing cells (FIG 6A). IL-4 and IL- 13 significantly decreased the SPINK7 promoter activity in OVOL1 overexpressing cells that were stimulated with FICZ (FIG 6B,C). Because cells that were differentiated in the ALI culture system express high endogenous levels of OVOL1, Applicant analyzed the effect of IL-4 and IL-13 on differentiated cells. In unstimulated cells, OVOL1 was mostly nuclear and remained nuclear after FICZ stimulation (FIG 6D). IL-4 or IL- 13 stimulation promoted OVOL1 translocation from the nucleus to the cytoplasm (FIG 3F). FICZ stimulation increased the endogenous SPINK7 expression (FIG 6E) and IL- 13 decreased SPINK7 expression when the cells were stimulated with FICZ (FIG 6E). As a control for FICZ and IL-13 stimulations, CYP1A1 and CCL26 expression were analyzed respectively (FIG 6F,G). Interestingly, FICZ stimulation was able to decrease the IL-13- dependent CCL26 expression by 2.7-fold (p < 0.0001; FIG 6G). Transcriptomic analysis of FICZ, IL- 13 and FICZ+IL-13 treated cells compared with untreated cells revealed that the 4 groups of treatment were significantly different (FIG 6H). The majority of the IL- 13 dysregulated genes (55%) overlapped with the IL-13 + FICZ transcriptome (FIG 61). While only less than 10% of the IL- 13 + FICZ transcriptome overlapped with the IL- 13 transcriptome (FIG 61). Interestingly, the top overexpressed genes in the IL- 13 transcriptome were shared with the IL- 13 + FICZ transcriptome, however, the fold change of these genes after IL- 13 + FICZ treatment compared to untreated cells was attenuated, compared with IL- 13 treatment alone including key genes such as CAPN14 (encoding for the cysteine protease, calpian-14) and CCL26 (encoding for the eosinophil chemoattractant, eotaxin-3) (FIG 6J). These results suggest that FICZ is able to attenuate some of the genes that are altered by IL- 13.
[00104] IL-13-induced CAPN14 expression depletes OVOL1 protein expression
[00105] Because IL- 13 is a major driver of epithelial transcriptional changes in EoE,
Applicant asked if IL- 13 can regulate OVOL1 expression. IL- 13 stimulation in differentiated esophageal epithelial cells decreased OVOL1 protein expression by 10-fold (P = 0.02; FIG 7A). As a positive control, DSG1 protein expression was decreased by ~ 20% (P = 0.01; FIG 7A). In contrast, OVOL1 mRNA expression was comparable between IL-13 stimulation and control cells (FIG 7B). Consistent with the protein level, DSG1 mRNA was decreased after
IL- 13 stimulation compared with untreated cells (FIG 7B). Suggesting that nuclear OVOL1 is a stable protein, while IL- 13 mediated nuclear transport inhibition promotes loss of cytoplasmic OVOL1 protein expression. Therefore, IL-13 may stimulate cytoplasmic retention of OVOL1 and loss of OVOL1 in EoE patients compared with controls (FIG 4 C,D). The EoE transcriptome is enriched with proteases and shows dysregulation between proteases and protease inhibitors (Azouz, 2018, Rochman, 2018 Rochman, 2017) Therefore, Applicant hypothesized that OVOL1 may be post-transcriptionally modified by proteases in the esophagus of EoE patients. Applicant then asked which genes are co-expressed with OVOL1 in the same esophageal clusters. Single cells RNAseq analysis revealed that CAPN14 and OVOL1 are co-expressed in the same cellular cluster in the esophagus (FIG 7C). The epithelial clusters that co-expressed OVOL1 and CAPN14 were enriched with SPINK7 and correspond to differentiated epithelial cells that express differentiation markers (i.e., FLG, MUC22) and esophageal enriched genes (i.e., MUC22, MAL, KLK13; FIG 7C). The expression of CAPN14 and OVOL1 was highly correlated with (r = 0.92) according to spearman correlation test. These findings prompted us to hypothesize that calpain-14 may be involved in OVOL1 post-transcriptional regulation. Notably, calpain-14 is an esophageal epithelial specific cysteine protease that is overexpressed in esophageal biopsies from EoE patients compared to controls and is regulated by IL-13 {Davis, 2016 #121;Kottyan, 2014 #123}. Inducible CAPN14 expression in differentiated esophageal epithelial cells revealed a marked reduction in OVOL1 protein expression (FIG 7D). OVOL1 mRNA expression was not affected by CAPN14 expression and was induced by < 2-fold by AHR ligands (P = 0.009-0.002; FIG 7E). Induction of CAPN14 expression decreased SPINK7 expression by 3.5-fold (P = 0.03; FIG 7F). The expression of SPINK7 was decreased by 3.5-fold to 12-fold after CAPN14 induction even after administration of AHR ligands (P = 0.03-0.002; FIG 7F). In addition, constitutive expression of CAPN14, by CAPN14-GFP vector transduction, decreased the expression of OVOL1 compared with control GFP vector transduction (FIG 7G), indicating that the reduction in OVOL1 protein expression resulted from CAPN14 expression and not as a result of dox treatment. Consistently, IL- 13 treatment decreased OVOL1 expression in the CAPN14-GFP overexpressing cells (FIG 7G). Therefore, IL-13 stimulation and CAPN14 expression decrease OVOL1 protein expression. Applicant then hypothesized that nuclear mobilization of OVOL1 by AHR protects OVOL1, while IL-13- mediated cytoplasmic retention of OVOL1, promotes degradation of OVOL1 by cytoplasmic
proteases such as calpin-14. To test this hypothesis, Applicant performed a biochemical fractionation of cellular proteins that differentiated the nuclear proteins from the rest of the cellular proteins which contain the cytosol and other organelles (here refer to cytosol). Applicant then incubated recombinant OVOL1 protein with cytosolic or nuclear proteins. Incubation of OVOL1 with cytoplasmic proteins for 30 minutes resulted in complete loss of OVOL1 protein, indicated by a marked decrease in OVOL1 band intensity (FIG 7H). In contrast, OVOL1 band was still notable after incubation of OVOL1 with nuclear proteins for 30 minutes (FIG 7H). These results indicate that OVOL1 is degraded outside of the nucleus and remains stable in the nucleus.
[00106] Ex vivo activation of AHR
[00107] Applicant then investigated if AHR ligands can stimulate esophageal SPINK7 expression ex vivo in a murine model. Esophagi were collected from C57BL/6 mice and were stimulated with AHR ligands. Six hrs of stimulation, were sufficient for detection of CYP1A1 induction, indicating that AHR pathway was activated (FIG 8A). At the same time, SPINK7 mRNA was induced by 10-fold (FIG 8B).
[00108] Discussion
[00109] The data presented here identify a complexed regulatory network that controls SPINK7 expression in esophageal epithelial cells. Applicant demonstrated that AHR regulates the expression of SPINK7 via OVOL1 and that IL-4 and IL- 13 inhibit this pathway by inhibiting the OVOL1 nuclear mobilization (FIG 12). The cysteine protease calpain-14 inhibits SPINK7 expression by post-translational modifications of OVOL1. Therefore, IL-13 can potentially inhibit SPINK7 expression by 2 mechanisms; first, by inhibiting OVOL1 nuclear translocation which prevents OVOL1 from binding to its target genes and decreasing OVOL1 stability, and second, by inducing calpain-14 expression, which in turn degrades OVOL1 and prevents SPINK7 expression.
[00110] Importantly, IL- 13 and calpain-14 are overexpressed in the esophagus of EoE patients compared with control individuals and were suggested to be major drivers in EoE pathogenesis; IL- 13 induces epithelial cell transcriptional changes that overlap with the EoE transcriptome (the list of genes that are altered in EoE esophageal biopsies compared to control biopsies). Its importance in disease pathogenesis is implicated by the positive effects
of anti-IL-13 treatment (QAX576 and RPC4046) in EoE. Calpain-14 is an esophageal- specific protease, encoded by the CAPN14 gene which is located in the strongest associated EoE risk locus (i.e., 2p23). Calpain-14 is up regulated by exposure of esophageal epithelial cells to IL- 13 and has been shown to regulate epithelial barrier homeostasis and repair. Therefore, Applicant’ s findings reveal an altered molecular pathway which is relevant in disease state. OVOL1 protein expression was lost in esophageal biopsies from EoE patients compared to controls. However, OVOL1 mRNA expression levels were comparable between EoE patients and controls. Similar observations were detected in vitro after stimulation of esophageal epithelial cells with IL- 13 or overexpression of CAPN14. This data set prompted Applicant to speculate that the loss of OVOL1 in EoE may be dependent upon IL- 13 and calpain-14 induction. Whether IL-13 and calpain-14 directly regulate OVOL1, may be further investigated.
[00111] A recent publication by Patel et al revealed that SPINK7 expression is induced by DNA damage and mediated by p53 (Patel, 2020). Herein, Applicant revealed that the transcription factor OVOL1 controls SPINK7 expression. OVOL1 is an enriched esophageal transcription factor that is induced during esophageal epithelial differentiation (Uhlen, 2015, Tsuji, 2017). OVOL1 regulates expression of barrier genes such as FLG and LOR in the skin (Tsuji, 2018). In addition, variants in OVOL1 gene associate with atopic dermatitis, a type 2 allergic disease that is characterized by barrier impairment of the skin (Marenholz, 2015, Hirota, 2012, Paternoster, 2011). Applicant’s data demonstrates that OVOL1 depletion decreases SPINK7 expression and promotes impaired esophageal barrier function and cytokine production in vitro. Therefore, it is suggested that OVOL1 has a key role in regulating esophageal homeostasis and immune tolerance.
[00112] Allergic diseases emerge when immune tolerance towards an antigen breaks and a danger signal is produced instead of a tolerogenic signal. Breakdown of immunologic tolerance is influenced by diverse factors such as diet, infections, exposure to antibiotics and chemicals, microbiome composition and stress, collectively term exposome (the sum of external factors that an individual is exposed to throughout their lifetime). In addition, genetic and epigenetic elements have the potential to influence the immunologic tolerance. The exposomal sensors of the esophagus, (which is an organ that most directly interacts with and adapts to the external environment) are yet undefined. Herein, Applicant asked which
molecules receive these environmental cues and translate these cues into cellular responses. Applicant identified AHR as an esophageal epithelial sensor that promotes the activation of OVOL1 which then induce transcription program of differentiation and barrier genes including SPINK7 and FLG. AHR is activated in response to many ligands such as vehicle exhaust and cigarette smoke, dietary compounds (i.e. flavonoids, indole-3 -carbinol derivatives, extracts from fruits and vegetables especially cruciferous), products from commensal bacteria and tryptophan metabolism (Moura-Alves, 2014, Rothhammer, 2019). In addition, AHR is capable of initiating distinct signaling pathways in response to different ligands (Quintana, 2008). In this way, AHR senses host/microbiome dysbiosis, dietary compounds, drugs and environmental toxicant and initiates an appropriate cellular response.
[00113] AHR is a member of the basic helix-loop-helix per-Amt-sim (bHLH/PAS) protein family. AHR is trapped in a cytosolic multiprotein complex consisting of heat shock protein 90, tyrosine kinase c-src, and other co-chaperones. AHR translocates from the cytoplasm into the nucleus upon ligand binding and dimerizes with AHR nuclear translocator (ARNT). The AHR /AHR ligand/ ARNT complex recognizes promoters containing specific enhancer sequences termed xenobiotic responsive elements (XRE) and then activates the transcription of target genes such as phase I and phase II detoxification enzymes (cytochrome P450 (CYP1A1)) (Rothhammer, 2019). Applicant’s data suggests that the AHR pathway is dysregulated in the esophagus of EoE patients compared to control patients. Although AHR levels are increased in the esophagus of EoE patients compared to control patients, phase II enzymes were markedly decreased (FIG 13). These data suggest alterations in the AHR pathway in EoE patients that may be stem from environmental exposures and can have downstream implications such as alterations in OVOL1 and its transcription program.
[00114] Interestingly, it was found that Omeprazole, an FDA approved proton pump inhibitor (PPI) used for acid-induced esophageal eosinophilia, can induce SPINK7 expression by promoting nuclear translocation of OVOL1. Recently, it has been shown that in 10-50% of EoE patients, PPI mono-therapy can effectively reverse the histological and clinical features of the disease. It has been suggested that the positive effects of PPI on EoE stem from blockade of acid by PPI and the anti-inflammatory effect of PPI, such as inhibition of eotaxin-3 and STAT6. Rochman et al reported that PPI promote diverse epithelial changes through AHR (Rochman, 2020). The findings that Omeprazole promotes SPINK7 expression
makes it tempting to speculate that part of the positive effects of Omeprazole on EoE patients may be because of its effect on SPINK7 expression which promotes barrier function and protects the esophageal homeostasis at least in part. Applicant’ s data also showed that another AHR ligand, FICZ, partially inhibits IL- 13 dependent eotaxin-3 (CCL26) expression. It is therefore interesting to investigate the possibility that PPI drugs inhibit eotaxin-3 and promoting SPINK7 expression in an AHR-dependent manner.
[00115] In conclusion, Applicant’ s data reveals a cross talk between the AHR/OVOL1/SPINK7 pathway, the type 2 cytokines, IL-4 and IL-13 and calpain-14. Given these collective observations, Applicant propose that local fluctuations in SPINK7, that curtails inflammatory responses in the squamous epithelium, particularly in the esophagus, can be controlled by environmental cues that are converged by AHR. Applicant have demonstrated that esophageal SPINK7 expression can be modulated by food supplements that induce AHR signaling. Therefore, Applicant propose that modulation of SPINK7 expression by AHR ligand supplement may be useful for a new avenue to reconsider AHR as a pharmacological target for mechanism-based drugs for food allergic diseases.
[00116] Materials and methods
[00117] Selection of promoter sequence
[00118] The 4.5kb region was chosen based on bioinformatics analysis of transcriptional and epigenetic data from the following databases: ENCODE (Encyclopedia of DNA Elements), CIS-BP (Catalog of Inferred Sequence Binding Preferences) and BioWardrobe (corresponds to ENCODE hg 19-2009; Cincinnati Children's Epigenetic Database). Cross analysis of these databases has shown that the 4.5kb region consists of highly-conserved sites enriched with histone acetylation marks (H3K27ac) and overlapped with DNase clusters. The BioWardrobe database (internal unpublished data) has shown that a region of 1.8kb is enriched with H3K27ac marks at 2kb upstream of the transcription start site (TSS). The 4.5kb non-coding putative promoter sequence (without UTR) was obtained from the ENCODE UCSC Genome Browser of the Human genome 2013 database (hg38_dna range) and the coordinates are chromosome 5:148307922-148312422.
[00119] Plasmid constructions
[00120] Promoter constructs were created by cloning the immediate 4.5kb region adjacent to the 5’ TSS of SPINK7 into the promoter-less Nano-luciferase reporter vector PNL1.1-NL (Promega). The 4.5kb sequence and subsequent constructs were created by using primers with the restriction enzyme sites KpnI-HF and Xhol. Applicant utilized SnapGene software that employed In-Fusion cloning techniques. Cloning was performed with In-Fusion HD methods (Clonteck, Takara Bio Company). PNL1.1-NL is defined as the empty vector (EV). Post-cloning with the sequence of interest is termed as SPINK7 [4.5kb]. The full-length SPINK7 consists of 4.5kb and short lengths were defined as SPINK7 lkb-3kb from TSS.
[00121] Transient transfection and luciferase activity assay
[00122] Human esophageal epithelial progenitor cells (EPC2) are immortalized cell lines that were donations from the Dr. Anil Rustgi Lab (University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA). EPC2 cells were cultured in Keratinocyte serum-free medium (KSFM). The KSFM medium was supplemented with epidermal growth factor (EGF, 1 ng/mL), bovine pituitary extract (BPE 50 mg/mL), and IX penicillin/streptomycin (Invitrogen). EPC2 cells were grown for 3-4 days until they reached 80-90% confluent. Cells were then harvested by addition of trypsin/EDTA (Invitrogen) and incubated for 3-5 min, at 37°C. Next, soybean trypsin inhibitor (250 mg/L in IX DPBS) was added, and cells were pelleted at 300G/5min. EPC2 cells were seeded on day-0 at 200k/48well plate in two conditions: low-calcium (KSFM medium alone -CaC120.09 mM) and high calcium (KSFM+CaC12 1.8 mM). 24 hours later (day-1) cells were transiently transfected at >95% density with Opti-MEM (ThermoFisher) and Mirus TransIT-2020 (Mirusbio, Madison, WI) according to the manufacturer instructions. Applicant used 3ul of TransIT-2020 per 1000 ng of construct DNA and 50 ng Firefly DNA (1:20 dilution). Cells were co-transfected with 1000 ng PNL1.1 containing the SPINK7 promoter sequence, or promoter-less empty vector (EV) PNL1.1-NL with 50 ng Firefly luciferase pGL3 vector (Promega). Firefly, a PGL3 vector (Promega), was employed as an internal control for transfection. On day 2 cells were incubated at 37C and the medium was changed with the appropriate calcium conditions. On day 3 (48hrs posttransfection) Nano and Firefly luciferase activities were measured in relative light units (RLU) by luciferase assay NanoDLR kit (Promega) via Synergy Mx Multi-Mode Microplate Reader (BioTek Instruments, Winooski, VT). In order to control for transfection efficiency, Nano-Luciferase activity was normalized to Firefly-Luciferase, then, the activity was
normalized to control promoterless transfected cells for each sample transfection variance per well. All assays were conducted in triplicates.
[00123] Endogenous SPINK7 expression
[00124] To determine endogenous SPINK7 expression, EPC2 cells were plated in a high density (250,000 cells/well in a 48 well plate) in KSFM media with 1.8 mM CaC12. For low density, 250,000 cells/well were grown in a 6 well plate in KSFM media with 1.8 mM CaC12. RNA was isolated with Quick-RNA Micro-prep (Zymo; Irvine, CA). ProtoScript First Strand cDNA Synthesis kit (NEB; Ipswich, MA) was employed according to the manufacturer instructions to obtain RT-PCR data.
[00125] For AEI differentiation, cells were grown as previously described (ref). Briefly, 150,000 cells/well were plated in a transwell system with 24 well plate. After 48 hrs, media was replaced to a high calcium media (1.8 mM CaC12). On day 8, media was aspirated from the top chambers, on day 12, cells were stimulated and on day 14 cells were harvested.
[00126] mRNA extraction, quantitative RT-PCR, and RNA sequencing analysis
[00127] Total RNA was isolated from cells with the RNeasy mini kit (Qiagen) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. For RNA sequencing experiments, RNA was treated with On-Column DNase Digestion kit (Qiagen) according to the supplied protocol. cDNA was synthesized with the ProtoScript synthesis kit (New England Biolabs). qPCR was performed using a 7900HT Fast Real-Time PCR system from Applied Biosystems (Fife Technologies) with FastStart Universal SYBR Green Master mix (Roche Diagnostics Corporation) by using primer sets. Next-generation RNA sequencing was performed by the CCHMC Genetic Variation and Gene Discovery Core Facility using Illumina TruSeq kits and sequenced on the Illumina HiSeq2000. For RNA sequencing analysis, Fastq files from the Illumina pipeline were aligned by BioWardrobe (42). Gene ontology enrichment analysis, which uses statistical methods to determine functional pathways and cellular processes associated with a given set of genes, was performed with the ToppGene suite (43).
[00128] OVOE1 gene silencing by shRNA
[00129] Lentiviral shRNA vectors against OVOE1 (MISSION shRNA, Sigma- Aldrich, clone NM_004561, TRCN00000257410, TRCN0000229665, and TRCN0000229664) and a
control vector that targets no known mammalian genes (SHC002 SIGMA MISSION® pLKO.l-puro Non-Mammalian shRNA Control) were used. EPC2 cells grown in KSFM media were transduced. Twenty-four hours after transduction, cells were selected for stable integration using puromycin (1 pg/mL). After ALI differentiation, gene silencing efficiency of target vectors in transduced cells was assessed by quantitative PCR relative to that of cells transduced with NSC shRNA.
[00130] Generation of CRISPR/Cas9 knocked out EPC2 cells
[00131] A guide RNA (gRNA) complementary to OVOL1 and CAPN14 open reading frame sequence and located directly 5’ of a protospacer adjacent motif (PAM) was identified (http://tools.genome-engineering.org; (Ran, 2013), and oligonucleotides were annealed and ligated into the BbsI restriction site of plasmid pX459M2 (obtained from CCHMC Transgenic Mouse and Gene Editing Core Facility) to produce pX459M2-SPINK7gl. EPC2 cells were transfected with pX459M2 or pX459M2-SPINK7gl using Viromer (Origen) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Transfected cells were selected, grown and sequenced as previously described (Azouz, 2018). OVOL1 and calpain-14 protein expression were determined by rabbit anti human OVOL1 antibody and rabbit anti human calpain-14 antibodies (Sigma Aldrich).
[00132] Immunofluorescence
[00133] Nuclear and cytoplasmic extraction and Western blotting
[00134] Proteins from cell cultures were extracted with RIPA buffer (Pierce) with protease and phosphatase inhibitors. Loading buffer (Life Technologies) was added, and samples were heated to 95°C for 5 min, subjected to electrophoresis on 12% NuPAGE BisTris gels (Life Technologies), transferred to nitrocellulose membranes (Life Technologies), and visualized using the Odyssey CLx system (LI-COR Biosciences) with IRDye 800RD goat anti-rabbit (LLCOR Biosciences), and IRDye 680RD goat anti-mouse (LLCOR Biosciences) secondary antibodies. The primary antibodies were Rabbit anti-OVOLl (Sigma Aldrich) or Rabbit anti-OVOLl (LifeSpan Biosciences), mouse anti-HSP90 (Cell Signaling Technology Inc), mouse anti-desmoglein-1 (Sigma Aldrich) and anti-Histon H3 (Abeam). Blots were quantified using the Image Studio software (LLCOR Biosciences).
[00135] Statistical Analysis
[00136] Raw data was measured in RLU and it is defined by the ratio of NanoLuciferase reporter activity (NL) to the Firefly (FF) activity [NL/FF]. Normalized data is defined by the ratio of raw data of the promoter activity [NL/FF] to the average of the EV activity [NL/FF]. Statistical analysis was completed with GraphPad PRISM. One-way and Two-way ANOVA and t-test were performed.
[00137] EXAMPLE 2. Quercetin diet induced SPINK7 expression in control mice (ED-L2) but not in mice deficient of AHR in esophageal epithelial
[00138] Procedure:
[00139] Mice were fed with control diet or Quercetin enriched diet for 30 days. (AIN- 930 with 300 ppm Quercetin, available from TestDiet, testdiet.com, containing 45.54% com starch, 15.5% maltodextrin, 14% casein, vitamin tested, 10% sucrose, 5% powdered cellulose, 4% soybean oil, 3.5% AIN 93M Mineral Mix, 1% AIN vitamin mix, 0.25% choline biartrate, 0.18% L-cysteine, and 0.03% quercetin; AIN-93M Mineral Mix contains Calcium Carbonate, Monopotassium Phosphate, Sucrose, Sodium Chloride, Potassium Sulfate, Potassium Citrate Monohydrate, Magnesium oxide, Ferric Citrate, Zinc Carbonate, Sodium, Metaslicate, Manganese Carbonate, Copper Carbonate, Chromium Potassium Sulfate, Boric Acid, Sodium Fluoride, Nickel Carbonate, Lithium Chloride, Sodium Selenate, Potassium Iodate, Ammonium Molybdate, and Ammonium Vanadate. AIN 93 Vitamin Mix contains Sucrose, DL- Alpha Tocopheryl Acetate (Form of Vitamin E), Phylliquinone (Form of Vitamin K), Nicotinic Acid, Calcium Pantothenate, Vitamin A Palmitate, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride, Thiamin, Hydrochloride, Riboflavin, Vitamin B-12 Supplement, Folic Acid, Cholecalciferol, Biotin.) Mice were harvested and the tongue, esophagus, liver and skin were collected. Then, RNA was extracted from the tissues and the expression of Cyplal (AHR target gene) was analyzed. In addition, protein lysates were generated to analyze CYP1A1 activity. As a positive control, esophageal explants were stimulated ex vivo with FICZ for 6 hrs. Quercetin diet induced SPINK7 expression in control mice (ED-L2) but not in mice deficient of AHR in esophageal epithelial.
