Transcriptomic profiles of human HaCaT cells in response to angelica polysaccharide.

ABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to explore the anti-psoriatic effect and potential mechanism of Angelica polysaccharide (APS) on an in vitro HaCaT cell model. MTS assay was performed to determine whether APS has the ability to inhibit the proliferation of HaCaT cells. RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) was performed to investigate the underlying mechanism of APS. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) was used to verify the accuracy of RNA-seq data. Our MTS assay results demonstrated that APS time- and concentration-dependently inhibits the proliferation of HaCaT cells. The anti-proliferation property of APS suggests that APS may have anti-psoriatic effect. In the RNA-seq part, comparison between the CK group (i.e., Control group) and ASP groups revealed dramatic differences [468 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) for CK group vs. ASP50 group; 563 DEGs for CK group vs. ASP100 group; 532 DEGs for CK group vs. ASP200 group]. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrich analysis performed on all DEGs failed to find any significant enriched GO terms or KEGG pathways to explain the anti-proliferative effect of APS. All DEGs were then classified into 20 expression profiles by trend analysis. Interestingly, cell proliferation-related GO terms were mostly dispersed in the profile 2 and 17. DEGs enriched in these terms were then analyzed. After literature retrieval, DEGs such as SERPINE1, SMAD6, CTGF, and TGF-? were suspected to closely relevant to the anti-proliferation effect of APS. qRT-PCR results showed similar expression trend with RNA-seq data for 8 out of 10 genes, indicating our sequence data are reliable.

Project description:Transcriptomic studies hold great potential towards understanding the human aging process. Previous transcriptomic studies have identified many genes with age-associated expression levels; however, small samples sizes and mixed cell types often make these results difficult to interpret.Using transcriptomic profiles in CD14+ monocytes from 1,264 participants of the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (aged 55-94 years), we identified 2,704 genes differentially expressed with chronological age (false discovery rate, FDR???0.001). We further identified six networks of co-expressed genes that included prominent genes from three pathways: protein synthesis (particularly mitochondrial ribosomal genes), oxidative phosphorylation, and autophagy, with expression patterns suggesting these pathways decline with age. Expression of several chromatin remodeler and transcriptional modifier genes strongly correlated with expression of oxidative phosphorylation and ribosomal protein synthesis genes. 17% of genes with age-associated expression harbored CpG sites whose degree of methylation significantly mediated the relationship between age and gene expression (p?<?0.05). Lastly, 15 genes with age-associated expression were also associated (FDR???0.01) with pulse pressure independent of chronological age. Comparing transcriptomic profiles of CD14+ monocytes to CD4+ T cells from a subset (n?=?423) of the population, we identified 30 age-associated (FDR?<?0.01) genes in common, while larger sets of differentially expressed genes were unique to either T cells (188 genes) or monocytes (383 genes). At the pathway level, a decline in ribosomal protein synthesis machinery gene expression with age was detectable in both cell types.An overall decline in expression of ribosomal protein synthesis genes with age was detected in CD14+ monocytes and CD4+ T cells, demonstrating that some patterns of aging are likely shared between different cell types. Our findings also support cell-specific effects of age on gene expression, illustrating the importance of using purified cell samples for future transcriptomic studies. Longitudinal work is required to establish the relationship between identified age-associated genes/pathways and aging-related diseases.
