Histone modifications underlie monocyte dysregulation in Systemic Sclerosis patients, underlining the treatment potential of epigenetic targeting [RNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a chronic autoimmune disease that mainly affects the connective tissue. Monocytes have been shown to be an important cell type involved in the pathogenesis of SSc. By performing RNA-sequencing analysis on whole RNA isolated from peripheral blood CD14+ monocytes obtained from SSc patients, together with healthy controls matched for sex and age, obtained from the University Medical Center Utrecht (definite SSc cohort), and the University of Milan (non-fibrotic SSc cohort), we aimed to characterize the transcriptomic landscape of monocytes of patients with (pre-clinical) systemic sclerosis. Moreover, ChIPseq data was available for a part of the subjects included in the RNA-seq analysis and the correlation between the histone marks and gene expression was studied. The samples used in this study are part of the SYSCLASS cohort.

CEACAM 1, 3, 5 and 6 -positive classical monocytes correlate with interstitial lung disease in early systemic sclerosis

Project description:To clarify the characteristics of CEACAM-positive monocytes in systemic sclerosis (SSc), we performed gene expression microarrays between CEACAM-positive and CEACAM-negative classical monocytes from diffused cutaneous systemic sclerosis(dcSSc) patients. We further analyzed expression levels of each subtype of CEACAM on monocytes from dcSSc by flow cytometry and performed gene expression microarrays between CEACAM1+CEACAM6- and CEACAM1-CEACAM6+ monocytes.

Gene expression profile in freshly isolated monocytes from patients with diffuse cutaneous scleroderma (dcSSc) compared to healthy donors (HDs)

Project description:Monocytes/macrophages are activated in several autoimmune diseases, including systemic sclerosis (scleroderma, SSc), with increased expression of IFN-regulatory genes and inflammatory cytokines, suggesting dysregulation of the innate immune response in autoimmunity. Recently, we found that EBV is deregulated in SSc with abnormal expression of viral lytic-genes in PBMCs and skin. Since monocytes/macrophages are involved in innate immune recognition of EBV/lytic infection, we sought to determine whether EBV might contribute to their activation in SSc. In this study, using recombinant-EBV we infected monocytes from SSc and healthy donors (HDs), we found that viral replication is essential for inducing the expression of TLR8 in EBV-infected primary monocytes. Markers of activated monocytes, such as IFN-regulated genes and chemokines, were up-regulated in SSc- and HD-EBV-infected monocytes. Inhibiting TLR8 expression reduced virally-induced-TLR8 in THP-1 infected cells, demonstrating that innate immune activation by infectious EBV is partially dependent on TLR8. Viral lytic-mRNA and -proteins were detected in freshly isolated SSc monocytes. Microarray analysis substantiated the evidence of an increased IFN signature and altered level of TLR8 expression in SSc monocytes carrying infectious EBV compared to HD monocytes.

Immune complex stimulation of human monocytes

Project description:Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is an autoimmune disease and several distinct autoantibodies have been described in SSc patients, many correlating with specific clinical presentation. Numerous studies have documented the presence of immune complexes (IC) in sera, lungs and BAL of SSc patients, potentially implicating them in the pathogenesis. Monocyte/macrophage activation also have been observed in fibrotic SSc skin and lung tissue. While the upstream activators remain unknown, it is plausible that IC are amongst the key triggers in activating monocytes and sustaining the chronic inflammation and fibrosis in SSc tissue. To test this hypothesis and find the specific downstream genes regulated by IC, we compare the gene expressions of the monocytes stimulated by control medium, LPS and IC using RNA seq. OPN was one of these IC regulated genes. Our paper further suggested that circulating OPN levels serve as a systemic proxy for IC driven profibrotic macrophage activity, highlighting its potential as a promising biomarker in SSc-ILD.

IgG from systemic sclerosis patients induce a profibrosing and serotype-dependent phenotype in normal dermal fibroblast: a multi-omics study

Project description:Autoantibodies (Aab) are frequent in systemic sclerosis (SSc). While recognized as potent biomarkers, their pathogenic role is much debated. This study explored the effect of purified IgG from SSc patients on the phenotype and function of healthy dermal fibroblast (FB) using an innovative multi-omics approach.

Epigenetic regulation of profibrotic macrophages in systemic sclerosis- associated interstitial lung disease

Project description:Systemic sclerosis-associated interstitial lung disease (SSc-ILD) is the leading cause of death in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) with unclear pathogenesis and limited treatment options. Evidence strongly supports an important role for profibrotic, SPP1-expressing macrophages in SSc-ILD. We sought to define the transcriptome and chromatin structural changes of SPP1 SSc-ILD macrophages, so as to better understand their role in promoting fibrosis and to identify transcription factors associated with open chromatin driving their altered phenotype.

Transcriptomic Analysis of Classical Monocytes from African American Patients with Systemic Sclerosis

Project description:Systemic sclerosis is a multisystem autoimmune disorder that has an unclear etiology and disproportionately affects African Americans (AA). Additionally, monocytes show heightened activation in SSc, and in AA relative to European ancestry (EA) individuals. Monocytes are thus a good target tissue for elucidating disease mechanisms. In this study, we sought to identify differentially expressed genes in classical monocytes from AA SSc patients relative to unaffected AA controls. We performed RNAseq to profile the transcriptome on FACS-isolated classical monocytes (CD14++CD16-) from 16 female AA SSc cases and 18 female AA controls. We observed modest gene expression differences between cases and controls. The genes harboring the top differentially methylated cytosines are enriched for metabolic processes. The relatively modest differences in gene expression observed between patients and controls is consistent with prior evidence of stronger inflammatory signatures in AA.

DNA Methylation Analysis in Classical Monocytes from African American Patients with Systemic Sclerosis

Project description:Systemic sclerosis is a multisystem autoimmune disorder that has an unclear etiology and disproportionately affects African Americans (AA). Additionally, monocytes show heightened activation in SSc, and in AA relative to European ancestry (EA) individuals. Monocytes are thus a good target tissue for elucidating disease mechanisms. In this study, we sought to investigate differentially methylated loci in classical monocytes from AA SSc patients and unaffected AA controls. We used Illumina’s MethylationEPIC BeadChip to profile DNA methylation patterns on FACS-isolated classical monocytes (CD14++CD16-) from 12 female AA SSc cases and 12 female AA controls. We observed modest DNA methylation differences between cases and controls. The genes harboring the top differentially methylated cytosines are enriched for immune pathways and metabolic processes. The relatively modest differences in DNA methylation observed between patients and controls is consistent with prior evidence of stronger inflammatory signatures in AA.
