Project description:We evaluated cutaneous contact hypersensitivity (CHS) in Cnr1-/-/Cnr2-/- animals using the obligate contact allergen 2,4-dinitrofluorobenzene (DNFB), which generates a specific cutaneous T-cell mediated allergic response upon repeated allergen contact. Allergic contact dermatitis affects about 5% of men and 11% of women in industrialized countries and is one of the leading causes for occupational diseases. In an animal model for cutaneous contact hypersensitivity we show that mice lacking both known cannabinoid receptors display exacerbated allergic inflammation. In contrast, fatty acid amide hydrolase deficient mice, which have increased levels of the endocannabinoid anandamide, displayed reduced allergic responses in the skin. Cannabinoid receptor antagonists exacerbated whereas receptor agonists attenuated allergic inflammation. These results demonstrate a protective role of the endocannabinoid system in contact allergy in the skin, and suggest a novel target for therapeutic intervention. Keywords: Strain (Wt versus Ko) and disease state (DNFB treated versus control).

Experiment Overall Design: Three wildtype mice (Wt) and three Cnr1-/-/Cnr2-/- (Ko) mice were used. Contact hypersensitivity was determined always at the right ears, which therefore were treated with DNFB (Tr). Left ears of mice were kept untreated and served as control ears (C). A total of 12 hybridizations were performed (2 strains x 2 treatments X 3 biological replicates) in this experiment.

Project description:Identification of ROS induced genes on dendritic cells Dendritic cells were incubated for 15 min with or without a ROS inhibitor (DPI), washed extensively and incubated for 30 min with a chemical allergen (DNFB), hydrogen peroxide, and vehicle alone in HBSS containing DPI or vehicle. After washed extensively, the samples were post-incubated for 5.5 h with DNFB, hydrogen peroxide, or vehicle in complete culture medium containing DPI or vehicle. Total RNA was extracted from cells treated with a chemical allergen, hydrogen peroxide, and vehicle alone in the presence or absence of a ROS inhibitor.

Project description:Analysis of mechano-regulation of tenocyte metabolism at gene expression level. The hypothesis tested in the present study was that cyclic tensile strain influence the balance of anabolism/catabolism of tenocytes. Forkhead box O (FoxO) proteins are a family of transcription factors implicated in many biological processes including immune regulation. In this study, we found that mice null for Foxo4, a member of the FoxO family, are more susceptible to 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS)-induced colitis than wild type controls. To understand the mechanism of elevated colitis susceptibility and the nature of the TNBS-induced colitis in Foxo4-null mice, we performed microarray analysis with mucosal cDNA samples from large intestines of untreated, ethanol and TNBS-treated wild type and Foxo4 KO mice. Unexpectedly, we found that cytokine CCL5, CXCL9, TNFalpha, and IFNgamma were already significantly upregulated in untreated Foxo4-null mice compared to WT controls despite lack of visible colonic phenotypes. Consistent with the exacerbated inflammatory phenotype in TNBS-treated Foxo4 KO mice, expressions of these inflammatory cytokines are further upregulated after TNBS-treatment. In addition, we observed many more inflammatory cytokines that were upregulated in TNBS-treated Foxo4 KO mice, including chemokines (CCL3, 4, 7, 8, 11, 12, 21b and CXCL1, 12, 14), chemokine receptors (CCR7, CCRl2, 8,CXC3CR1), cytokines (IL-1, IL-6, IL-11, IFI205), and cytokine receptors (TNFrsf). Interestingly, many of the anti-bacterial peptides were also up-regulated in TNBS treated Foxo4 KO mice including defensin related cryptdin (Defcr3,5,6, 9,13) and Defcr related sequence (Defcr-cr1,2,10,12). Up-regulation of basal level of IFNgamma, TNFalpha, CCL5, and CXCL9 expression in Foxo4 KO mice is specific to colonic tissues, as no significant difference of these gene transcript levels between wild type and Foxo4 KO mice was observed in other tissues including thymus. IFNgamma, TNFalpha, and IL-1beta, which are upregulated in TNBS-treated Foxo4 KO mice, are Th1 type cytokines. This is consistent with the Th1 inflammatory phenotype observed in TNBS-treated Foxo4-KO mice. We also tested whether the expression of Th2 cytokines (IL-4, IL-5, and IL-13) is altered in TNBS-treated WT and Foxo4-null mice in comparison to ethanol-treated mice and observed no significant differences suggesting that the TNBS-induced colitis in Foxo4-null FVB mice is predominantly Th1 in nature.

Colonic mucosal tissues from five mice per treatment group (untreated, two days after ethanol or TNBS-treatment) were pooled. Total RNA obtained from colon mucosa isolated tendon fascicles subjected to 1 or 24 hours in vitro cyclic tensile strain compared to unstrained control fascicles.

Project description:Endothelial cells form the innermost layer of vessel walls and their activation is important for the recruitment of white blood cells to inflammatory lesions and for the formation of new blood vessels. Endothelial expression of IL-33 is prominent in human, guinea pig and rat, while is almost absent in the mouse. We have therefore generated IL-33-deficient rats, a more suitable animal model than the commonly laboratory mouse, to address a knowledge gap in the IL-33 research field by providing an in vivo model system that closely reflects the IL-33 expression in human. We performed here gene-level expression profiling of the endothelial cells isolated from IL-33 knock-out rat dermal blood vessesl and looked for the role of endogenous IL-33 in regulating the endothelial cell phenotype.

Project description:Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is characterized by severe obstruction of small pulmonary arteries and concomitant high pulmonary arterial pressure, resulting in progressive right ventricular failure. Previously, we demonstrated that long-term interleukin (IL)-33 administration in mice induced severe occlusive arterial hypertrophy in the lung, which was mediated by group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s). In response to IL-33, ILC2s accumulated around blood vessels and produced IL-5, leading to perivascular eosinophil recruitment. In this study, we further characterized IL-33-induced pulmonary arterial hypertrophy. We first demonstrated that long-term IL-33 administration caused an increase in the right ventricular pressure. In IL-33 deficient mice, pulmonary arterial hypertrophy mediated by eggs of Schistosoma mansoni (S. mansoni) was attenuated, accompanied with partial reduction in ILC2s, eosinophils and CD4+ T cells. In addition, proteomic analysis revealed dramatic changes in urine samples from mice treated with IL-33 or S. mansoni eggs. Resistin like alpha (RELM), a pulmonary hypertension-related molecule, in the urine was commonly detected in both treatments. Large amounts of RELM were observed in the lung from IL-33-treated mice. These observations support that IL-33-induced pulmonary arterial hypertrophy is a useful model to study the mechanism underlying development of PAH and expolar biomarkers to indicate the onset of PAH.
