Project description:Idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH) is characterized by medial hypertrophy due to pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cell (paSMC) hyperplasia. Interleukin (IL)-13 is a potent regulator of tissue fibrosis and remodelling, and its effects are dependent on the cell-type specific expression of the IL-13 receptor isotypes IL-4Rα, IL-13Rα1, and IL-13Rα2. In order to identify the possible mechanism how IL-13 can exert its antiproliferative effect on paSMC microarray analysis was performed. For this purpose paSMC were stimulated with IL-13(10ng/ml) for 2h and 6h, respectively and subjected to microarray analysis.

Project description:Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMP) inhibit proliferation and induce apoptosis in pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMC) from normal subjects. Dysfunction of BMP signaling due to mutations in and/or downregulation of BMP receptors has been implicated in idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH). We examined whether BMP differentially regulates gene expression in PASMC from normal subjects and IPAH patients using the Affymetrix microarray analysis. BMP-2 treatment (200 nM for 24 hrs) altered expression levels of 6,206 genes in normal and IPAH PASMC. 1,063 of these genes were regulated oppositely by BMP-2: 523 genes were downregulated by BMP-2 in normal PASMC but upregulated in IPAH PASMC, whereas 540 genes were upregulated by BMP-2 in normal PASMC but downregulated in IPAH PASMC. The divergent effects of BMP-2 on gene expression profiles indicate that PASMC may undergo significant phenotypic changes in IPAH patients during development of the disease. The transition of the antiproliferative effect of BMP-2 in normal PASMC to its proliferative effect in IPAH patients is attributed potentially to its differential effect on expression patterns of various genes that are involved in cell proliferation and apoptosis. Among the 6206 BMP-2-sensitive genes, there are more than 1800 genes whose expression levels were negatively (with a correlation coefficient, r, < -0.9) or positively (with r > +0.9) correlated with the pulmonary arterial pressure. These results suggest that BMP-mediated gene regulation is significantly altered in PASMC from IPAH patients and mRNA expression changes in BMP-regulated genes may be involved in the development of IPAH.

Project description:Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is characterized by severe obstruction of small pulmonary arteries and concomitant high pulmonary arterial pressure, resulting in progressive right ventricular failure. Previously, we demonstrated that long-term interleukin (IL)-33 administration in mice induced severe occlusive arterial hypertrophy in the lung, which was mediated by group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s). In response to IL-33, ILC2s accumulated around blood vessels and produced IL-5, leading to perivascular eosinophil recruitment. In this study, we further characterized IL-33-induced pulmonary arterial hypertrophy. We first demonstrated that long-term IL-33 administration caused an increase in the right ventricular pressure. In IL-33 deficient mice, pulmonary arterial hypertrophy mediated by eggs of Schistosoma mansoni (S. mansoni) was attenuated, accompanied with partial reduction in ILC2s, eosinophils and CD4+ T cells. In addition, proteomic analysis revealed dramatic changes in urine samples from mice treated with IL-33 or S. mansoni eggs. Resistin like alpha (RELM), a pulmonary hypertension-related molecule, in the urine was commonly detected in both treatments. Large amounts of RELM were observed in the lung from IL-33-treated mice. These observations support that IL-33-induced pulmonary arterial hypertrophy is a useful model to study the mechanism underlying development of PAH and expolar biomarkers to indicate the onset of PAH.

Project description:Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a life-threatening disease, characterized by excessive pulmonary vascular remodeling, leading to elevated pulmonary arterial pressure and right heart hypertrophy. PH is caused, among other factors, by chronic hypoxia, leading to hyper-proliferation of pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells (PASMC) and apoptosis-resistant pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells (PMVEC). Upon re-exposure to normoxia, chronic hypoxia-induced PH in mice is reversible. In this study, we aim to identify novel candidate genes involved in pulmonary vascular remodeling specifically in the pulmonary vasculature.

Project description:NOX1 is a catalytic subunit of nonphagocytic NADPH oxidase, mainly localized to smooth muscle cells in the vasculature. We investigated the pathology underlying the pulmonary arterial hypertension-like phenotype demonstrated in mice deficient in the Nox1 gene (Nox1-KO). Spontaneous enlargement and hypertrophy of the right ventricle, accompanied by hypertrophy of pulmonary vessels, were demonstrated in Nox1-KO at 9-18 weeks of age. Since an increased number of ?-smooth muscle actin-positive vessels was observed in Nox1-KO, pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells (PASMCs) were isolated and characterized by flow cytometry and TUNEL staining. In Nox1-/Y PASMC, the number of apoptotic cells was significantly reduced without any change in the expression of endothelin-1, and hypoxia-inducible factors HIF-1a and HIF-2a, factors implicated in the pathogenesis of PAH. microRNA expression profiling of mouse pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells in wild-type and NOX1-KO was analyzed. Pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells were harvested form 3 mice.

Project description:NFU1 is an iron-sulfur (Fe-S) scaffold protein, involved in Fe-S assembly and transfer to a range of mitochondrial metalloproteins. Patients with the NFU1G208C mutation develop pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) with 70% penetrance. Rats with NFU1G206C homozygous mutation demonstrated the PAH phenotype showing increased pulmonary vasculature remodeling, right ventricular (RV) hypertrophy, and RV pressure. In the present study, we discovered phenotypic metabolic changes in pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells (PASMC) from NFU1G206C homozygous mutant rats associated with alterations in the mitochondrial proteome. Quantitative analysis of the mitochondrial proteome showed significant changes in the abundance of 208 proteins involved in various metabolic and antioxidant functions in response to the NFU1 mutation. Our data indicates that the NFU1G206C homozygous mutant rats have decreased expression of complex I and II, which are known to depend on iron-sulfur clusters, and increased expression of complexes III to V, accompanied with a significant decrease in mitochondrial function, pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) activity and amplified glycolysis and anabolism in PASMC. The NFU1 mutation produced a dysregulated antioxidant system in the mitochondria which leads to increased levels of reactive oxygen species. Due to alterations in apoptosis regulating proteins, the NFU1G206C cells were found to exhibit high proliferation rates and resistance to apoptosis as compared with the wild type (WT). Finally, the NFU1G206C mitochondrial proteome showed significant abundance changes in proteins that regulate fatty acid (FA) metabolism and exhibited increased FA oxidation compared to WT, suggesting increased FA oxidation compensates for the decreased PDH activity. In conclusion, our data indicates that the NFU1G206C mutation induces a metabolic shift in the PASMC, which results in a hyper-proliferative and apoptosis resistant phenotype and presents a novel cellular model to study PAH.
