Global MicroRNA Expression Profiling of Mouse Livers following Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury at Different Stages.

ABSTRACT: Hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury is a dynamic process consisting of two stages: ischemia and reperfusion, and triggers a cascade of physiological and biochemical events. Given the important role of microRNAs in regulating gene expression, we analyzed gene expression changes in mouse livers at sham control, ischemia stage, and reperfusion stage. We generated global expression profiles of microRNA and mRNA genes in mouse livers subjected to ischemia-reperfusion injury at the three stages, respectively. Comparison analysis showed that reperfusion injury had a distinct expression profile whereas the ischemia sample and the sham control were clustered together. Consistently, there are 69 differentially expressed microRNAs between the reperfusion sample and the sham control whereas 28 differentially expressed microRNAs between the ischemia sample and the sham control. We further identified two modes of microRNA expression changes in ischemia-reperfusion injury. Functional analysis of both the differentially expressed microRNAs in the two modes and their target mRNAs revealed that ischemia injury impaired mitochondrial function, nutrient consumption, and metabolism process. In contrast, reperfusion injury led to severe tissue inflammation that is predominantly an innate-immune response in the ischemia-reperfusion process. Our staged analysis of gene expression profiles provides new insights into regulatory mechanisms of microRNAs in mouse hepatic IR injury.

Project description:Background With the intensification of population aging, the proportion of aging livers in the donor pool is increasing rapidly. Compared with young livers, aging livers are more susceptible to ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) during liver transplantation, which greatly affects the utilization rate of aging livers. The potential risk factors associated with IRI in aging livers have not been fully elucidated. Methods In this work, five human liver tissue expression profiling datasets (GSE61260, GSE107037, GSE89632, GSE133815, and GSE151648) and a total of 28 young and aging liver tissues of human (N = 20) and mouse (N = 8) were used to screen and verify the potential risk factors associated with aging livers being more prone to IRI. DrugBank Online was used to screen drugs with potential to alleviate IRI in aging livers. Results The gene expression profile and immune cell composition between young and aging livers had significant differences. Among the differentially expressed genes, aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator-like (ARNTL), BTG antiproliferation factor 2 (BTG2), C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 10 (CXCL10), chitinase 3-like 1 (CHI3L1), immediate early response 3 (IER3), Fos proto-oncogene, AP-1 transcription factor subunit (FOS), and peroxisome proliferative activated receptor, gamma, coactivator 1 alpha (PPARGC1A), mainly involved in the regulation of cell proliferation, metabolism, and inflammation, were also dysregulated in liver tissues suffered from IRI and could form a FOS-centered interaction network. Nadroparin was screened out with the potential to target FOS in DrugBank Online. In addition, the proportion of dendritic cells (DCs) was significantly upregulated in aging livers. Conclusions We combined the expression profiling datasets of liver tissues and samples collected in our hospital for the first time to reveal that the changes in the expression of ARNTL, BTG2, CXCL10, CHI3L1, IER3, FOS, and PPARGC1A and the proportion of dendritic cells may be associated with aging livers being more prone to IRI. Nadroparin may be used to mitigate IRI in aging livers by targeting FOS, and regulation of DC activity may also reduce IRI.
