Project description:Purpose: To identify the cell types that contribute to CFTR expression and function within the proximal-distal axis of the normal human lung. Methods: Single cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) was performed on freshly isolated human large and small airway epithelial cells. Single cell-based RNA in situ hybridization (scRNA-ISH) and quantitative RT-PCR (scqRT-PCR) were performed for validation. In vitro culture systems correlated CFTR function to cell types. Lentiviruses were used for cell-type specific transduction of wild-type CFTR in CF cells. Results: scRNA-seq identified secretory cells as dominating CFTR expression in normal human large and particularly small airways, followed by basal cells. Ionocytes expressed the highest CFTR levels but were rare, while expression in ciliated cells was infrequent and low. scRNA-ISH, and scqRT-PCR confirmed the scRNA-seq findings. CF lungs exhibited distributions of CFTR and ionocytes similar to normal controls. CFTR-mediated Cl- secretion tracked secretory cell, not ionocyte, densities. Further, the nucleotide-purinergic regulatory system that controls CFTR-mediated hydration was associated with secretory cells. Lentiviral transduction of wild-type CFTR produced CFTR-mediated Cl- secretion in CF airway secretory cells but not ciliated cells. Conclusions: Secretory cells dominate CFTR expression and function in human airway superficial epithelia. CFTR therapies may need to restore CFTR function to multiple cell types, with a focus on secretory cells.

Project description:Cystic fibrosis (CF)-related diabetes (CFRD) is an increasingly common and devastating comorbidity of CF, affecting ~35% of adults with CF. However, the underlying causes of CFRD are unclear. Here, we examined cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) islet expression and whether the CFTR participates in islet endocrine cell function using murine models of b cell CFTR deletion, and normal and CF human pancreas and islets. Specific deletion of CFTR from murine b cells did not affect b cell function. In human islets, CFTR mRNA was minimally expressed, and CFTR protein/electrical activity was not detected. Isolated CF/CFRD islets demonstrated appropriate insulin and glucagon secretion with few changes in key islet-regulatory transcripts. Furthermore, ~65% of b cell area was lost in CF donors, compounded by pancreatic remodeling and immune infiltration of the islet. These results indicate that CFRD is not caused by intrinsic islet dysfunction from CFTR mutation, but rather, by b cell loss and intra-islet inflammation in the setting of a complex pleiotropic disease

Project description:Analysis of the cystic fibrosis gene Cftr in the colon and small intestine of Cftr-deficient murine model. The hypothesis was loss of Cftr altered expression of genes important in intestinal homeostasis and oncogenic signaling pathways. The results identified potential roles of Cftr in up- or down-regulating major gene clusters that belong to groups of immune response, ion channel, intestinal stem cell and other growth regulators. Total RNA was isolated from the normal intestine of three Apc wildtype Cftr wildtype and three Apc Cftr-deficient mice. For the colon intestinal epithelia from the same region of the distal colon of each mouse was separated from the rest of the intestine prior to RNA isolation. Therefore RNA was obtained from only epithelial cells. For the small intestine, a section of the mid-duodenum from each mouse was sheared of villi prior to RNA isolation. Therefore RNA was obtained from whole duodenum (minus villi), containing epithelia cells but also stromal and other cells. RNA Seq was then conducted on all samples, with at least two replicates for each biological sample.

Project description:Cystic fibrosis, the most commonly inherited lethal pulmonary disorder in Caucasians, is caused by mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene (CFTR). To identify genomic responses to the presence or absence of CFTR in pulmonary tissues in vivo, microarray analyses of lung mRNAs were performed on whole lung tissue from mice lacking (CFTR(-)) or expressing mouse CFTR (CFTR(+)). Whereas the histology of lungs from CFTR(-) and CFTR(+) mice was indistinguishable, statistically significant increases in the relative abundance of 29 and decreases in 25 RNAs were identified by RNA microarray analysis. Of RNAs whose expression was consistently altered by the absence of CFTR, functional classes of genes influencing gene transcription, inflammation, intracellular trafficking, signal transduction, and ion transport were identified. RNAs encoding the transcription factor CCAAT enhancer-binding protein (CEBP) delta and interleukin (IL) 1beta, both known to regulate CFTR expression, were induced, perhaps indicating adaptation to the lack of CFTR. RNAs mediating lung inflammation including calgranulin-S100 family members, IL-1beta and IL-4, were increased. Likewise, expression of several membrane transport proteins that interact directly with CFTR were increased, suggesting that CFTR-protein complexes initiate genomic responses. Absence of CFTR influenced the expression of genes modulating diverse pulmonary cell functions that may ameliorate or contribute to the pathogenesis of CF. Lungs from sex-matched littermates at 3, 6, and 11 weeks of agewere carefully dissected and the conducting airways and mediastinal structures removed.

Project description:Production of functional proteins requires multiple steps including gene transcription and post-translational processing. MicroRNAs (miRNA) can regulate individual stages of these processes. Despite the importance of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) channel for epithelial anion transport, how its expression is regulated remains uncertain. We discovered that microRNA-138 regulates CFTR expression through its interactions with the transcriptional regulatory protein SIN3A. Treating airway epithelia with a miR-138 mimic increased CFTR mRNA and also enhanced CFTR abundance and transepithelial Cl- permeability independently of elevated mRNA levels. A miR-138 anti-miR had the opposite effects. Importantly, miR-138 altered the expression of many genes encoding proteins that associate with CFTR and may influence its biosynthesis. The most common CFTR mutation, M-NM-^TF508, causes protein misfolding, degradation, and cystic fibrosis. Remarkably, manipulating the miR-138 regulatory network also improved biosynthesis of CFTR-M-NM-^TF508 and restored Cl- transport to cystic fibrosis airway epithelia. This novel miRNA-regulated network directs gene expression from the chromosome to the cell membrane, indicating that an individual miRNA can control a cellular process broader than previously recognized. This discovery also provides new therapeutic avenues for restoring CFTR function to cells affected by the most common cystic fibrosis mutation. 12 samples of Calu-3 cells representing different interventions.

Project description:The purpose of this study was to explore baseline expression of miRNome in Cystic Fibrosis Bronchial Epithelial (CFBE41o-) cells stably transfected with wild type (WT) Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance regulator (CFTR) and F508del-CFTR. To fulfill this goal miRNA sequencing was done to see miRNA landscape in CFBE41o- Cells with homozygous F508del mutated CFTR and in CFBE41o- Cells with homozygous WT-CFTR, without any treatment condition.

Project description:Single cell RNA-sequencing has accurately identified cell types within the human airway that express the Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. Low abundance CFTR transcripts are seen in many secretory cells, while high levels are restricted to rare pulmonary ionocytes. Here we focus on the mechanisms coordinating basal CFTR expression in the secretory compartment. Cell-selective regulation of CFTR is achieved within its invariant topologically associating domain by the recruitment of cis-regulatory elements (CREs). CRE activity is coordinated by cell-type-selective transcription factors. One such factor, Krüppel-Like Factor 5 (KLF5), profoundly represses CFTR transcript and protein in primary human airway epithelial cells and airway cell lines. Here we reveal the mechanism of action of KLF5 upon the CFTR gene. We find that depletion or ablation of KLF5 from airway epithelial cells changes higher order chromatin structure at the CFTR locus. Critical looping interactions that are required for normal gene expression are altered, the H3K27ac active chromatin mark is redistributed, and CTCF occupancy is modified. However, mutation of a single KLF5 binding site within a pivotal airway cell CRE abolishes CFTR expression. Hence, KLF5 has both direct activating and indirect repressive effects, which together coordinate CFTR expression in the airway.
