Angiogenesis-related genes may be a more important factor than matrix metalloproteinases in bronchopulmonary dysplasia development.

ABSTRACT: We characterized the expression profile of angiogenesis-related genes (ARG) and matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) genes in preterm infants, with and without bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). We reanalyzed a gene expression dataset for preterm infants from the Gene Expression Omnibus database using the Gene-Cloud of Biotechnology Information platform. A total of 1,652 genes were differentially (1.2-fold change) expressed: 811 were highly expressed in infants with BPD, and 841 were highly expressed in those without BPD. Twenty-eight and 11 ARGs were upregulated in infants with and without BPD, respectively. Among 27 detected MMPs and TIMPs, MMP8, MMP9, MMP25, TIMP2 and TIMP3 were differently expressed. Levels of THBS1, MMP8, MMP9, MMP25, TIMP2 and TIMP3 increased as severity of BPD and retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) increased, whereas ETS1, LEF1 and SPOCK2 exhibited the opposite trend. Expression of ETS1 and LEF1 had a fitting rate of R2 = 0.849 and P < 0.001. ELISAs showed a positive correlation between THBS1 and CD36 (receptor of THBS1) levels in serum samples from preterm infants. Our study indicates that the upregulation of THBS1 and downregulation of ETS1, LEF1 promotes BPD in preterm infants by disrupting blood vessel formation rather than by dysregulation of MMPs and TIMPs.

Project description:Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a major complication in prematurely born infants. Pulmonary hypertension (PH) associated with BPD (BPD-PH) is characterized by alveolar diffusion impairment, abnormal vascular remodeling, and rarefication of pulmonary vessels (vascular growth arrest), which lead to increased pulmonary vascular resistance and right heart failure. About 25% of infants with moderate to severe BPD develop BPD-PH that is associated with high morbidity and mortality. The recent evolution of broader PH-targeted pharmacotherapy in adults has opened up new treatment options for infants with BPD-PH. Sildenafil became the mainstay of contemporary BPD-PH therapy. Additional medications, such as endothelin receptor antagonists and prostacyclin analogs/mimetics, are increasingly being investigated in infants with PH. However, pediatric data from prospective or randomized controlled trials are still sparse. We discuss comprehensive diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for BPD-PH and briefly review the relevant differential diagnoses of parenchymal and interstitial developmental lung diseases. In addition, we provide a practical framework for the management of children with BPD-PH, incorporating the modified definition and classification of pediatric PH from the 2018 World Symposium on Pulmonary Hypertension, and the 2019 EPPVDN consensus recommendations on established and newly developed therapeutic strategies. Finally, current gaps of knowledge and future research directions are discussed. IMPACT: PH in BPD substantially increases mortality. Treatment of BPD-PH should be conducted by an interdisciplinary team and follow our new treatment algorithm while still kept tailored to the individual patient. We discuss recent developments in BPD-PH, make recommendations on diagnosis, monitoring and treatment of PH in BPD, and address current gaps of knowledge and potential research directions. We provide a practical framework, including a new treatment algorithm, for the management of children with BPD-PH, incorporating the modified definition and classification of pediatric PH (2018 WSPH) and the 2019 EPPVDN consensus recommendations on established and newly developed therapeutic strategies for BPD-PH.
