Platform effects on regeneration by pulmonary basal cells as evaluated by single-cell RNA sequencing [RNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: Cell-based therapies have shown promise for treating myriad chronic pulmonary diseases through direct application of epithelial progenitors or by way of engineered tissue grafts or whole organs. To elucidate environmental effects on epithelial regenerative outcomes in vitro, we isolated and cultured a population of pharmacologically expanded basal cells (peBC) from rat tracheas. At peak basal marker expression we simultaneously split peBC into four in vitro platforms – organoid, air-liquid interface (ALI), engineered trachea, and engineered lung. Following differentiation, these samples were evaluated using single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq) and computational pipelines were developed to compare samples both globally and at the population level. A sample of native rat tracheal epithelium was also evaluated by scRNAseq as a control for engineered epithelium. Overall this work identifies platform-specific effects that support the use of engineered models to achieve the most physiologic differential outcomes in pulmonary epithelial regenerative applications.

A tracheal aspirate-derived airway basal cell model reveals a proinflammatory epithelial defect in congenital diaphragmatic hernia (RNA-Seq)

Project description:Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is characterized by incomplete closure of the diaphragm and lung hypoplasia. The pathophysiology of lung defects in CDH is poorly understood. To establish a translational model of human airway epithelium in CDH for pathogenic investigation and therapeutic testing, we developed a robust methodology of epithelial progenitor derivation from tracheal aspirates of newborns. Basal stem cells from CDH patients and preterm and term, non-CDH controls were derived and analyzed by bulk RNA-sequencing, ATAC-sequencing, and air-liquid-interface differentiation. Transcriptomic and epigenetic profiling of CDH and non-CDH basal stem cells reveals a disease-specific, proinflammatory signature independent of severity or hernia size. In addition, CDH basal stem cells exhibit defective epithelial differentiation in vitro that recapitulates epithelial phenotypes found in fetal human CDH lung samples and fetal tracheas of the nitrofen rat model of CDH. Furthermore, steroid treatment normalizes epithelial differentiation phenotypes of human CDH basal stem cells in vitro and in nitrofen rat tracheas in vivo. Our findings have identified an interplay between a proinflammatory signature and BSC differentiation as a potential therapeutic target for airway epithelial defects in CDH.

Gene expression data from mouse tracheal epithelial cells isolated before and 48hrs after SO2 injury

Project description:The conducting airway epithelium of the rodent and human lung is made up of about equal proportions of ciliated and secretory cells. In addition, in regions where the epithelium is pseudostratfied, ~30% of the epithelium consists of undifferentiated basal cells (BCs). Evidence suggests that these BCs are multipotent stem cells that can self renew over the long term and give rise to both ciliated and secretory lineages. The goal of this project is to identify cellular and molecular mechanisms by which the basal cells normally maintain the epithelium and repair it after injury. We used Affymetrix microarray analysis to compare transcripts in tracheal epithelium before and after SO2 injury. Mice tracheal epithelium and mesenchyme were separate for RNA extraction before and 48hrs after SO2 injury. Cells from tracheas of 4 male C57Bl/6 mice were pooled for each biological experiment. The experiments were repeated three times for triplicate samples.

Project description:We report here senescent changes in the structure and organization of the mucociliary pseudostratified epithelium of the mouse trachea and the main stem bronchi. We confirm previous reports of the graduate appearance of age-related, gland-like structures (ARGLS) in the submucosa, espeically in the intercartilage regions and carina. Immunohistochemistry shows these structures contain ciliated and secretory cells and Krt5+ basal cells, but not the myoepithelial cells or ciliated ducts typical of normal submucosal glands. Data suggests they arise de novo by budding from teh surface epithelium rather than by delayted growth of small or cryptic submucosal glands. In old mice the surface epithelium contains fewer cells per unit length than in young mice and the proportion of Krt5+, p63+ basal cells is reduced in both males and females. However, there appears to be no significant difference in the ability of basal stem cells isolated from individual young and old mice to form clonal tracheospheres in culture or in the ability of the pithelium to repair after damage by inhaled sulfur dioxide. Gene expression analysis by Affymetrix microarray and quantitative PCR, as well as immunohistochemistry and flow sorting studies, are consistent with low-grade chronic inflammation in the tracheas of old versus young mice. The significance of these changes for ARGL formation are not clear since several treatments that induce acute inflammation in young mice did not result in budding of the surface epithelium. Total RNA from distal tracheas and carinas of four young (2 month) and four older (14 month) C57Bl/6 female mice was extracted using QIAshredder and RNeasy Micro Kits (QIAGEN). The quality was checked with a 2100 Bioanalyzer (Agilent Technologies). Total RNA was processed using Ambion MessageAmpTM Premier by the Duke Microarray Facility. Standard Affymetrix protocols and Affymetrix GeneChip® Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array chips were used to generate .cel files.

In vivo replacement of damaged bladder urothelium by Wolffian duct epithelial cells

Project description:The bladder’s remarkable regenerative capacity in response to injury had been thought to reside exclusively in its basal and intermediate cells. While examining consequences of DNA methyltransferase 1 (Dnmt1) inactivation in mouse embryonic bladder epithelium, we made the surprising discovery that Wolffian duct epithelial cells also support bladder regeneration. Conditional inactivation of Dnmt1 in mouse urethral and bladder epithelium triggered widespread apoptosis, depleted basal and intermediate bladder cells and disrupted Uroplakin protein expression. These events coincided with recruitment of Wolffian duct epithelial cells into Dnmt1 mutant urethra and bladder where they were reprogrammed to express bladder markers including FOXA1, Keratin 5, P63 and Uroplakin. This is the first evidence that Wolffian duct epithelial cells can be summoned in vivo to replace damaged bladder epithelium and function as a cell reservoir for bladder regeneration.

Gene expression data from type II pneumocytes from adult mice with and without Trf2

Project description:Gas exchange in the mammalian lung occurs in the alveolar sacs lined by epithelial cells that form a barrier allowing effective oxygen diffusion. Telomere syndromes have their most common manifestation in degenerative disease of the alveoli, both pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema. We tested the role of telomere dysfunction by inducing deletion of the telomere binding protein Trf2 in type 2 alveolar epithelial cells (AEC2s) that both express the gene encoding surfactant protein C and constitute the regenerative compartment of the alveolar epithelium. Acquired telomere dysfunction in these cells preferentially induced cellular senescence, and mouse lungs were marked by an inflammatory response even though the telomere dysfunction was restricted to the epithelium. Senescent AECs had altered gene expression that differentially fell in inflammatory cell signaling pathways. Bleomycin challenge was uniformly fatal, and Trf2-depleted cells failed to generate clonal alveolar colonies in vitro. The telomere dysfunction response in AEC2s was in part p53-dependent, and we found evidence of a p53-mediated paracrine survival signal to the mesenchyme. These data indicate that telomere dysfunction in the alveolar epithelium limits its regenerative capacity and is sufficient to induce inflammation. It may thus be a primary driving event in telomere-mediated lung disease. Efforts to restore epithelial regenerative capacity may be an effective approach in a subset of fibrosis and emphysema patients. We studied the gene expression changes in adult type II pneumocytes 7 days after deleting Trf2. Mice carried floxed allele of Trf2 and mTmG reporter allele. Type II pneumocytes were collected by FACs sorting GFP+ cells from lungs 7 days after administering tamoxifen. 6 total samples were analysed. Three were from control samples that were heterozygous for Trf2 and three samples had Trf2 deleted.

A Leaky Human Colon Model Reveals Uncoupled Apical/Basal Cytotoxicity in Early Clostridioides difficile Toxin Exposure

Project description:Clostridioides difficile (C. difficile) toxins A (TcdA) and B (TcdB) cause antibiotic-associated colitis, increasing morbidity and mortality. Accurate in vitro models are necessary to detect early toxicity kinetics, investigate disease etiology, and develop preclinical models for new therapies. Properties of cancer cell lines and organoids inherently limit these efforts. We developed adult stem cell-derived monolayers of differentiated human colonic epithelium (hCE) with barrier function, investigated the impact of toxin application to apical/basal aspects of monolayers, and evaluated whether a leaky epithelial barrier enhances toxicity. Single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNAseq) mapped C. difficile-relevant genes to human gut epithelial lineages. Transcriptomics informed timing of stem cell differentiation to achieve in vitro colonocyte maturation like that observed in vivo. Transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER) and fluorescent dextran permeability assays measured cytotoxicity as barrier loss post-toxin exposure. Leaky epithelial barriers were induced with diclofenac. scRNAseq demonstrated broad and variable toxin receptor expression across human gut lineages. Absorptive colonocytes displayed generally enhanced toxin receptor, Rho GTPase, and cell junction expression. 22-day differentiated Caco-2 cells remained immature whereas hCE monolayers were similar to mature colonocytes. hCE monolayers exhibited high barrier function after 1-day differentiation. Basal TcdA/B application to monolayers caused greater toxicity and apoptosis. Diclofenac induced leaky hCE monolayers and enhanced toxicity of apical TcdB exposure. Apical/basal toxicities are uncoupled with more rapid onset and increased magnitude of basal toxicity. Leaky paracellular junctions enhance toxicity of apical TcdB exposure. hCE monolayers represent a physiologically relevant and sensitive culture system to evaluate the impact of microbial toxins on gut epithelium.

Mandatory Role of HMGA1 in Human Airway Epithelial Normal Differentiation and Post-injury Regeneration

Project description:Background: High mobility group AT-hook1 (HMGA1) is essential for airway basal cell mucociliary differentiation, barrier integrity and wound repair. HMGA1 expression suppresses the abnormal basal cell differentiation to squamous, inflammatory and epithelial-mesenchymal transition phenotype commonly observed in association with cigarette smoking and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Results: HMGA1 knockdown experiments indicate that when HMGA1 expression is suppressed, the airway basal cells cannot normally differentiate into a mucociliary epithelium, form an intact barrier, and repair following injury. Instead, airway basal cell differentiation was skewed to an abnormal squamous EMT-like phenotype associated with airway remodeling in COPD. This study demonstrates that HMGA1 plays a key role in normal airway differentiation, regeneration of the normal airway epithelium following injury, and suppression of expression of genes related to squamous metaplasia, EMT and inflammation.

Cell-intrinsic differences between human tracheal epithelial cells from children and adults [cultured basal cells]

Project description:The airway epithelium is a key protective barrier whose integrity is preserved by the self-renewal and differentiation of basal progenitor cells. Epithelial cells are central to the pathogenesis of multiple chronic lung diseases for which age is a principle risk factor. Children are also less susceptible to SARS-CoV-2 infection, suffer less severe symptoms than adults and have a lower rate of mortality. Few studies have addressed differences between airway epithelial cells in children and adults. Here, we perform bulk RNA sequencing studies in laser-captured whole epithelium, FACS-sorted basal cells and cultured basal cells, as well as in vitro cell proliferation experiments, to address the intrinsic molecular differences between paediatric and adult airway basal cells. We find that, while the cellular composition of the paediatric and adult tracheal epithelium is broadly similar, in cell culture, paediatric airway epithelial cells displayed higher colony forming ability, better in vitro growth and outcompeted adult cells in competitive proliferation assays. Although recurring differences between airway epithelial gene expression were seen between samples from children and adults, RNA sequencing showed broad conservation of transcriptional programmes. Genes associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection were not differentially expressed between children and adults, although individuals showed some variability in their expression of viral infection-associated genes. Our results chart important cell intrinsic differences in transcriptional profile and regenerative capacity between tracheal epithelial cells of children and adults.
