Alteration of mRNA and microRNA expression profiles in rat muscular type vasculature in early postnatal development [miRNA]

ABSTRACT: This study tested the hypothesis that miRNA expression profiles change in the muscular type rat saphenous artery during early postnatal development. To explore this, we performed miRNA microarray analysis on muscular type saphenous arteries of young (10-12 days) and adult (2-3 months) rats. For one sample four saphenous arteries from 2 young animals (n = 4 samples per group) or two saphenous arteries from one adult animal (n = 4 samples per group) were used to profile miRNA (n = 8; GeneChip® miRNA 3.0) expression changes during the muscular type rat saphenous artery during early postnatal development. In this study, 10-12 days old (“young”) and 2 - 3 months old (“adult”) male Wistar rats were used.

Project description:Background: The vascular wall of small arteries is heavily affected by high blood pressure. However, the underlying mechanisms causing vascular changes are not fully elucidated. Using a novel data-independent acquisition mass spectrometry (DIA-MS) approach, we aimed to determine the proteomic changes in small mesenteric arteries during early-onset high blood pressure in a rat model of hypertension. Methods: Snap frozen small mesenteric and renal arteries from the spontaneous hypertension rat (SHR) model and Wistar Kyoto (WKY) control rats were collected from two time points (6- and 12-weels of age) and analyzed by a label free quantitative DIA-MS workflow. Mesenteric arteries from Wister Hannover rats were included as an additional control to clarify genetic drift caused by selective inbreeding. Results: We identified a total of 3956 consistent proteins in the mesenteric artery wall and found that 286 proteins were significantly regulated in 12-weeks old SHRs compared to WKY controls. Comparing to an in silico matrisome database, we identified 38 extracellular matrix-associated proteins that could distinguish SHRs from WKY controls. Furthermore, when comparing the significantly regulated proteins identified in mesenteric and renal arteries, we identified 18 proteins, including Serpina3l, Igg-2a, ENSRNOG00000049829, Acyp2, Enpp3, Lss, Acaa1a, Basp1, an isoform of Basp1, Flot1, Flot2, Gstt1, Nit1, Ppid, Ikbkap, Poglut3, P4ha2 and Usp15, that were changed in both vascular beds. These proteins were associated with vital cellular processes, such as dyslipidemia, protease inhibition, remodeling and generation of reactive oxygen species. Majority of the identified proteins and pathways were associated with hypertension, and mapping the underlying changes help understanding the pathological processes occurring in the arterial wall during early-onset hypertension. Conclusions: Our data provides an in-depth analysis of the proteomic architecture of the mesenteric and renal artery wall from SHRs and WKY control rats. We identified 18 novel candidate proteins that highlights critical changes in small arteries of the SHR.
