Responses of retinal and brain microvasculature to diabetes revealed by global expression profiling

ABSTRACT: Retinal microvessels (RMVs) and brain microvessels (BMVs) were isolated from diabetic and nondiabetic rats. RNA were extracted, amplified and processed on Affymetrix rat 2.0 microarray Chips. Differently expressed genes (DEGs) between diabetic RMVs and nondiabetic RMVs, and between diabetic BMVs and nondiabetic BMVs were analyzed. Using these DEGs, we analyzed and compared the diabetic effects on the gene expression profiles in retinal microvasculature and brain microvasculature. In the brain microvasculature multiple compensatory mechanisms exists, serving to protect brain tissue from diabetic insults, whereas these mechanisms are not activated in the retinal microvasculature.

Gene expression profiling of the retinal microvessels and the brain microvessels

Project description:Rat retinal microvessels (RMVs) and brain microvessels (BMVs) were mechanically isolated under ice-cold condition. Retinal and brain tissues (RT, BT) from the same animals were collected for comparisons. Total RNA were individually extracted, amplified and processed on Affymetrix rat 2.0 microarray Chips. We sought to obtain the whole gene expression profile of RMVs, RT, BMVs and BT. Differently expressed genes (DEGs) between RMVs and RT, and between RMVs and BMVs, between RT and BT were analyses. Using these DEGs, we comprehensively analyzed gene expression of the microvessels and highlighted their involvement in critical functional structures in RMVs and BMVs, such as junctional complex, transporters and signaling pathways.

Reconstructing human kidney microvasculature for the study of kidney injury

Project description:Kidney peritubular capillaries are particularly susceptible to rarefaction and regeneration-limited after exposure to toxins or injuries. Studying these kidney microvessels remain challenging, primarily resulting from difficulties imaging in vivo, as well as isolating and culturing kidney microvascular cells in vitro, in particular in a three-dimensional (3D) microenvironment with proper hemodynamics. Here, we developed methods to isolate, purify, and characterize human kidney peritubular microvascular endothelial cells (hKMECs), and reconstituted a 3D kidney microvasculature in collagen matrix. Compared to other endothelial cells, isolated hKMECs are very sensitive to VEGF for survival and growth, and have a high vasculogenic but low angiogenic potential. Under flow, they formed a fenestrated endothelium with a comprehensive permeability barrier. When exposed to calcineurin inhibitors, hKMECs formed microvessels displayed cell retraction, broken fenestrae, and swollen endothelium, which led to a thrombogenic luminal wall and erythrocytes extravasations into the subendothelial space. Our study recapitulated the human kidney microvascular structure and function, and shed lights on potential mechanistic studies of kidney specific injuries and diseases.

Ex vivo Dynamics of Human Glioblastoma Cells in a Microvasculature-on-a-Chip System Correlates with Tumor Heterogeneity and Subtypes

Project description:The perivascular niche (PVN) plays an essential role in brain tumor stem-like cell (BTSC) fate control, tumor invasion, and therapeutic resistance. We use a microvasculature-on-a-chip system as a PVN model to evaluate the ex vivo dynamics of BTSCs from ten glioblastoma patients. BTSCs were found to preferentially localize in the perivascular zone, where they exhibited either the lowest motility, as in quiescent cells, or the highest motility, as in the invasive phenotype, with migration over long distance. The degree of co-localization between tumor cells and microvessels varied significantly across patients. To validate these results from the microvasculature-on-a-chip system, single-cell transcriptome sequencing (10 patients and 21,750 single cells in total) was performed to identify tumor cell subtypes. The co-localization coefficient was found to positively correlate with proneural (stem-like) or mesenchymal (invasive) but not classical (proliferative) tumor cells. Furthermore, a gene signature profile including PDGFRA correlated strongly with the “homing” of tumor cells to the PVN. These findings demonstrate that our BTSC-on-a-chip model can recapitulate in vivo tumor cell dynamics and heterogeneity, representing a new route to study patient-specific tumor cell functions.

Staphylococcus aureus gene expression in a rat model of infective endocarditis

Project description:S. aureus has a propensity to cause endocarditis; diabetes mellitus is a frequent underlying comorbitity in patents with S. aureus endocarditis. S. aureus Affymetrix GeneChips were used to compare S. aureus expression properties in cardiac vegatations isolated from diabetic and nondiabetic rats. S. aureus Affymetrix GeneChips were also used to compare the S. aureus expression properties of cardiac vegatations (both diabetic and nondiabetic) in comparsions to planktonic cells. Few differences were observed between the expression properties of S. aureus harvested from diabetic vs. nondiabetic cardiac vegatations. Significant differences were observed between the expression properties of S. aureus harvested from cardiac vegetations in comparison to exponential and/or stationary phase planktonically grown cells. S. aureus strain COL was used to establish cardiac vegetations in diabetic and nondiabetic rats or grown in laboratory medium to exponential or stationary phase, total bacterial RNA was isolated, labeled and applied to Affymetrix GeneChips. We sought to determine whether the transcriptional profiles of S. aureus differed in diabetic vs. nondiabetic rats and whether vegetations differed from that of planktonic S. aureus.

Perivascular Progenitor Cells Derived from Human Embryonic Stem Cells Exhibit Functional Characteristics of Pericytes, and Improve the Retinal Vasculature in a Rodent Model of Diabetic Retinopathy

Project description:Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is the leading cause of blindness in working-age people. Pericyte loss is one of the pathologic cellular events in DR, which weakens the retinal microvessels. Damages to the microvascular networks are irreversible and permanent, thus further progression of DR is inevitable. In this study, we hypothesize that multipotent perivascular progenitor cells derived from human ESCs (hESC-PVPCs) improve the damaged retinal vasculature in the streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rodent models. We describe a highly efficient and feasible protocol to derive such cells using a natural selection method without cell sorting processes. As a cellular model of pericytes, hESC-PVPCs exhibited marker expressions such as CD140B, CD146, NG2, and functional characteristics of pericytes. Following a single intravitreal injection into diabetic Brown Norway (BN) rats, we demonstrate that the cells localized alongside typical perivascular regions of the retinal vasculature, and stabilized blood-retinal barrier (BRB) breakdown. Findings in this study highlight a therapeutic potential of hESC-PVPCs in DR by mimicking the role of pericytes in vascular stabilization.
