Project description:Pulmonary endothelial dysfunction plays an integral role in mediating the initiation and progression of pulmonary vascular remodelling, an important feature of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Our aim was to decipher the gene expression program of endothelial cells derived from circulating endothelial progenitor (EPCs) to gain insight into the pathological process of PAH associated with systemic sclerosis (SSc), which is the most extreme vascular phenotype of this disease. We used microarrays to investigate the gene expression profile in late outgrowth EPC-derived endothelial cells issued from SSc-PAH patients, in comparison with SSc patients without PAH and healthy controls.

Project description:Neutrophil elastase (NE) is implicated in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) but the role of neutrophils in the pathogenesis of PAH is unclear. Here we show that neutrophils from PAH vs. control subjects produce and release increased NE associated with enhanced extracellular trap formation. PAH neutrophils are highly adherent and show decreased migration consistent with increased vinculin, identified on proteomic analysis and previously linked to an antiviral response. This was substantiated by a transcriptomic interferon signature in PAH neutrophils and an increase in human endogenous retrovirus (HERV-K) envelope protein. NE and interferon genes are induced by HERV-K envelope and vinculin is increased by HERV-K dUTPase that is elevated in PAH plasma. Neutrophil exosomes from PAH plasma contain increased NE and HERV-K envelope and induce pulmonary hypertension in mice, that is mitigated by the NE inhibitor and antiviral agent, elafin. Thus elevated HERVs explain pathological neutrophils linked to PAH induction and progression.

Project description:Although multiple gene and protein expression have been extensively profiled in human pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), the mechanism for the development and progression of pulmonary hypertension remains elusive. Analysis of the global metabolomic heterogeneity within the pulmonary vascular system leads to a better understanding of disease progression. Using a combination of high-throughput liquid-and-gas-chromatography-based mass spectrometry, we showed unbiased metabolomic profiles of disrupted glycolysis, increased TCA cycle, and fatty acid metabolites with altered oxidation pathways in the severe human PAH lung. The results suggest that PAH has specific metabolic pathways contributing to increased ATP synthesis for the vascular remodeling process in severe pulmonary hypertension. These identified metabolites may serve as potential biomarkers for the diagnosis of severe PAH. By profiling metabolomic alterations of the PAH lung, we reveal new pathogenic mechanisms of PAH in its later stage, which may differ from the earlier stage of PAH, opening an avenue of exploration for therapeutics that target metabolic pathway alterations in the progression of PAH. Global profiles were determined in human lung tissue and compared across 11 normal and 12 severe pulmonary arterial hypertension patients. Using a combination of microarray and high-throughput liquid-and-gas-chromatography-based mass spectrometry, we showed unbiased metabolomic profiles of disrupted glycolysis, increased TCA cycle, and fatty acid metabolites with altered oxidation pathways in the severe human PAH lung.

Project description:Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a severe and incurable pulmonary vascular disease. One of the primary origins of PAH is pulmonary endothelial dysfunction leading to vasoconstriction, aberrant angiogenesis and smooth muscle cell proliferation, endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition, thrombosis and inflammation. Our objective was to study the epigenetic variations in pulmonary endothelial cells (PEC) through a specific pattern of DNA methylation. DNA was extracted from cultured PEC from patients with idiopathic PAH (n=11), heritable PAH (n=10) and controls (n=18). ). DNA methylation was assessed using the Illumina HumanMethylation450 Assay. After normalization, samples and probes were clustered according to their methylation profile. Differential clusters were functionally analysed using bioinformatics tools.

Project description:The hypothesis tested in this study was that chronic exposure of PBMCs to a hypertensive environment in remodeled pulmonary vessels would be reflected by specific transcriptional changes in these cells. The transcript profiles of PBMCs from 30 idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension patients (IPAH), 19 patients with systemic sclerosis without pulmonary hypertension (SSc), 42 scleroderma-associated PAH patients (SSc-PAH), and 8 patients with SSc complicated by interstitial lung disease and PH (SSC-PH-ILD) were compared to the gene expression profiles of PBMCs from 41 healthy individuals. Gene expression is compared at a global level using total RNA from BPMC for pateints and controls using the Illumina microarray platform.

Project description:Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is the best characterized and most studied type of pulmonary hypertension, classified as Group I according to the international guidelines, and hemodinamically defined as pre-capillary pulmonary hypertension. Our analysis was focused on the role of the osteopontin gene in the transcriptional profile of PAH. We used microarray to identifiy the gene expression profiles in patients with PAH and in normal controls.

Project description:Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a common complication of systemic sclerosis (SSc) and a leading cause of mortality among patients with this disease. PH can also occur as an idiopathic condition (idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension, iPAH). We sought to investigate the transcriptomic alterations in PH vascular populations to understand cellular mechanisms underlying pathobiology of systemic sclerosis associated and idiopathic pulmonary hypertension.

Project description:Rationale: Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is characterized by increased pulmonary artery pressure and vascular resistance, typically leading to right heart failure and death. Current therapies improve quality of life of the patients but have a modest effect on long-term survival. A detailed transcriptomics and systems biology view of the PAH lung is expected to provide new testable hypotheses for exploring novel treatments. Objectives: Complete transcriptomics analysis of PAH and control lung tissue to develop disease-specific and clinical data/tissue pathology gene expression classifiers from expression datasets. Gene expression data were integrated into pathway analyses. Methods: Gene expression microarray data was collected from 58 PAH and 25 control lung tissues. The strength of the dataset and its derived disease classifier was validated using multiple approaches. Pathways and upstream regulators analyses was completed with standard and novel graphical approaches. Measurements and Main Results: The PAH lung dataset identified expression patterns specific to PAH subtypes, clinical parameters, and lung pathology variables. Pathway analyses indicate the important global role tumor necrosis factor and transforming growth factor signaling pathways. In addition, novel upstream regulators and insight into the cellular and innate immune responses driving PAH were identified. Finally, WNT-signaling pathways may be a major determinant underlying the observed sex differences in PAH. Conclusion: This study provides a transcriptional framework for the PAH-diseased lung, supported by previously reported findings, and will be a valuable resource to PAH research community. Our investigation revealed novel potential targets and pathways amenable to further study in a variety of experimental systems.
