Project description:The clear benefits of ischemic preconditioning (IPC) in reducing ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) remain indistinct in human liver transplantation. To further understand the mechanistic aspects of IPC in human deceased donor liver transplantation (DDLT), we performed microarray analyses to determine global gene expression profiles associated with IPC administration. Donor and recipient characteristics in both groups were comparable. Clinical data from our study subset and larger trial were similar. IPC increased expression of 10 transcripts at either time point with roles in: antioxidant defenses, immunological response, lipid biosynthesis, and xenobiotic metabolism. IPC decreased the expression of 1 cell development related transcript. Conclusions: 1) IPC in DDLT increased the expression of antioxidant transcripts similar to studies in animal IPC, anesthetic, and remote IPC. 2) IPC increased expression of lipogenic transcripts, which may be relevant to the clinically observed increased IRI in our IPC group. 3) Our microarray findings support our clinical observations and are compatible with the varied outcomes of hepatic IPC studies in human liver transplantation. We conducted a nested sub-study in 12/101 subjects enrolled in a prospective randomized trial of 10 min IPC in DDLT during 2003-2006. Liver biopsies were performed at the end of cold storage and at 90 minutes after allograft reperfusion. Six biopsy pairs from both IPC and No IPC (STD) groups within a narrow donor risk index range were selected. Total RNA was extracted and hybridized with Affymetrix GeneChip Human Gene 1.0 ST Array. IPC effects were examined by comparing IPC vs. STD at both time points. Transcripts whose expression changed 2-fold with p<0.05 were considered significant.

Project description:INTRODUCTION Ischemia and reperfusion injury (IRI)-elicited tissue injury contributes to morbidity and mortality in a wide range of pathologies, including myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, acute kidney injury, trauma, circulatory arrest 1. Ischemia-reperfusion injury is also a major challenge during organ transplantation and cardiothoracic, vascular and general surgery 1. IRI, one of the biggest challenges for organ transplantation, continues to be a vital source of morbidity among recipients, especially in liver transplantation 2. With the enlarging shortage of available donor livers, the increased use of extended criteria donor grafts further increases IRI, adversely affecting both short-term and long-term outcomes of graft and patient survival 3. Numerous studies have investigated the benefits of pharmacological, heat shock, and ischemic preconditioning interventions aimed at decreasing liver IRI 4. However, the benefit was limited. Our center has been making great effort in conquering IRI and have developed a novel surgical technique called ischemia-free liver transplantation 5. It is an ultimate method to overcome IRI in liver transplantation, but there is still a long way to popularize it. As a result, it is still of great significance to study IRI and identify the core genes in the process and the underlying mechanism. Comprehensive bioinformatics analysis has been increasingly important as a method to study various pathological and physiological condition 6. By enrolling multiple omics or combining different types of omics, comprehensive bioinformatics analysis was able to recognize key factors that could have potentially pathogenic impact such as gene expression, protein function, and downstream pathways. With the rapid development of high-throughput sequencing technologies, several transcriptomic datasets on IRI of liver transplantation have become available in the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. Herein, we recruited 3 GEO datasets to conduct comprehensive analysis with the GEO dataset from our center. Moreover, we performed the first proteome of liver tissues to study liver IRI. Then the transcriptome and proteome were used for combined analysis to reveal key factors in liver IRI.

Project description:We examined, through an oligonucleotide microarray protocol, the renal differential transcriptome profiles of mices submitted to IRI, IPC and Hemin treatment. After identifying the profiles of differentially expressed genes observed for each comparison, we carried out functional enrichment analysis to reveal transcripts putatively involved in potential relevant biological processes and signaling pathways. The most relevant enriched biological processes found in these comparisons were stress, inflammation, apoptosis, pathways in cancer, differentiation, angiogenesis, focal adhesion, ECM-receptor interaction, ion transport, angiogenesis, mitosis and cell cycle, inflammatory response, olfactory transduction and regulation of actin cytoskeleton. In addition, the most important overrepresented pathways were MAPK, ErbB, JAK/STAT, Toll and Nod like receptors, Angiotensin II, Arachidonic acid metabolism, Wnt and coagulation cascade. Also, new insights were gained about the underlying protection mechanisms against renal IRI promoted by IPC and Hemin treatment. Venn diagram analysis allowed us to uncover common and exclusively differentially expressed genes between these two protective maneuvers, underscoring potential common and exclusive biological functions regulated in each case. In summary, IPC exclusively regulated the expression of genes belonging to stress, protein modification and apoptosis, highlighting the role of IPC in controlling exacerbated stress response. Treatment with the Hmox1 inducer Hemin, in turn, exclusively regulated the expression of genes associated with cell differentiation, metabolic pathways, cell cycle, mitosis, development, regulation of actin cytoskeleton and arachidonic acid metabolism, suggesting a pleiotropic effect for Hemin. According to surgery and treatment procedures, mices were divided into five groups: Control, Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI), animals pre-treated with Hemin followed by IRI (Hemin + IRI), animals only treated with Hemin (Hemin) and animals pre-conditioned and submitted to IRI (IPC+IRI). To identify the consequences of IRI, Hemin treatment or IPC in gene expression profiles, the following statistical comparisons were made between the groups: IRI vs Control, IPC+IRI vs Control, IPC+IRI vs IRI, IRI+Hemin vs IRI and Hemin vs Control.

Project description:Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) remains the major reason for impaired donor graft function and increased mortality post-liver transplantation. The mechanism of IRI involves multiple pathophysiological processes and numerous types of cells. However, a systematic and comprehensive single-cell transcriptional profile of intrahepatic cells during liver transplantation is still unclear. We performed a single-cell transcriptome analysis of 14,313 cells from liver tissues collected from pre-procurement, at the end of preservation and 2 h post-reperfusion. We made detailed annotations of mononuclear phagocyte, endothelial cell, NK/T, B and plasma cell clusters, and we described the dynamic changes of the transcriptome of these clusters during IRI and the interaction between mononuclear phagocyte clusters and other cell clusters. In addition, we found that TNFAIP3 interacting protein 3 (TNIP3), specifically and highly expressed in Kupffer cell clusters post-reperfusion, may have a protective effect on IRI. In summary, our study provides the first dynamic transcriptome map of intrahepatic cell clusters during liver transplantation at single-cell resolution.

Project description:Hypothermic oxygenated machine perfusion (HOPE) is an organ preservation strategy shown to reduce ischemia-reperfusion-injury (IRI)-related complications following liver transplantation this remains to be evaluated in humans. Analysis of liver tissue transcriptome at reperfusion revealed an effect of HOPE on the reactive oxygen species pathway. Two weeks post transplantation, HOPE recipients exhibited increased circulating CD4+FOXP3+CD127lo regulatory T cells (Tregs) (p<0.01), which corresponded to a higher frequency of donor specific Tregs (p<0.01) and was followed by reduced alloreactivity index of CD8+ T cells 3 months post-transplant. Our study provides novel mechanistic insight into the capacity of HOPE to influence liver IRI and to modulate effector and regulatory donor-specific Tcell responses post-transplantation. These findings, which confirm observations made in animal models, help explain the decreased rejection rates reported in patients receiving HOPE-treated allografts.

Project description:Ischemia/reperfusion injuries is a known complication to hepatic surgery. Ischemic pre- (IPC) and postconditioning (IPO) protects the liver against ischemia/reperfusion-injuries. Expression profiling were performed on liver biopsies seeking to identify molecular mediators of the protective properties. 48 rats were divided into 5 groups; sham (n=8), IRI (n=10), IPC (n=10), IPO (n=10) and IPC+IPO (n=10). All rats except sham rats were subjected to 30 min of total liver ischemia and 30 min of reperfusion before liver biopsies were sampled. In the IPC group, liver ischemia was preceded by 10 min of hepatic ischemia, followed by 10 min of reperfusion. IPO were performed by three cycles of 30 sec of reperfusion and 30 sec of ischemia, applied immediately after the 30 min of total liver ischemia. In the IPC+IPO group the two interventions were combined.

Project description:In DCD organ donation one of the significant problems for the organ is the inflammatory response due to ischaemia reperfusion injury caused by warm ischaemia prior to retrieval followed by warm reoxygenation upon transplantation. We developed a model where a DCD kidney was retrieved and preserved using hypothermic machine perfusion with cold University of Wisconsin solution with/without the addition of heparinoids low molecular weight heparin and pentosan polysulfate (PPS) followed by warm oxygenated perfusion with modified Krebs-Henseleit buffer to simulate early ischaemia reperfusion injury (IRI). The donor rats consisted of a control group cold perfusion group compared to warm perfusion and groups treated with either low molecular weight heparin or PPS to assess their activity in ameliorating IRI. We used equimolar pooled RNA samples from each group to perform an exploratory microarray experiment Donor kidneys were harvested and preserved by hypothermic machine perfusion with University of Wisconsin (UW) Solution for 3 hours followed by warm oxygenated perfusion with modified Krebs-Henseleit buffer for 30 minutes to simulate transplantation and whole blood ischaemia reperfusion injury. The model was then used to test the anti-inflammatory properties of the glycosaminoglycan heparin and PPS when used as supplements into perfusate solutions. Half of the donor kidney was used to extract RNA using the Tri reagent and stored in RNA Later. The qualitative best three RNAs from each group were quantified by fluorimetry and mixed in an equimolar manner and used for microarray analysis.

Project description:We have studied the genes activated in human liver transplantation to identify potential target genes for the prevention or treatment of related injuries. In a first protocol, in order to evaluate the effect of Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury (IRI) on gene expression profile, we compared gene expression levels in transplanted-reperfused livers versus basal values in donor livers, identifying 795 genes significantly modified in human liver after transplantation. Some genes are likely to be completely activated by IRI, as they are not expressed at all in basal livers. In a second protocol, in order to identify gene dysregulations already present in donor livers, which might affect gene expression profile after transplantation, gene expression evaluated in the first study was compared to control livers (espression data retrieved from ArrayExpress database). About 900 genes in donor livers are dysregulated if compared to the control condition. At least 400 of them remain dysregulated or become more and more dysregulated after transplantation. For the first protocol, two biopsies were collected from each liver: 1 biopsy before explantation from the donor, immediately after opening, before ice was applied, and 1 biopsy about 2-3 hours after liver reperfusion in the recipient organism. Gene expression of 5 transplanted livers was compared to that of 5 donor livers. In the second protocol gene expression both of transplanted and donor livers was compared to gene expression data from 5 control livers retrieved from ArrayExpress repository SAMPLE ID: E-AFMX-11. This dataset is part of the TransQST collection.

Project description:In DCD organ donation one of the significant problems for the organ is the inflammatory response due to ischaemiua reperfusion injury caused by warm ischaemia prior to retrieval followed by warm reoxygenation upon transplantation. We developed a model where a DCD kidney was retrieved and stoired overnight then the organ was surgically attached to the femoral artery of a recipient rat and blood flow restored for up to six hours to simulate early ischaemia reperfusion injury (IRI). The recipient rats consisted of a control group compared to groups recieveing either low molecular weight heparin or an anti-inflammatory peptide to assess their activity in ameliorating IRI. We used equimolar pooled RNA samples from each group to perform an exploratory microarray experiment. Donor kidneys were harvested and static cold stored in University of Wisconsin (UW) Solution overnight before being surgically connected to the femoral artery of a recipient rat to simulate transplantation and whole blood ischaemia reperfusion injury. The model was then used to test the anti-inflammatory properties of the glycosaminoglycan heparin and a peptide based upon the heparin binding domain of the pro-inflammatory chemokine CCL5. The treatments were delivered as a bolus in normal saline and control recipients were given normal saline as a control. The kidneys underwent perfusion by normal blood flow for a period of up to six hours after which the recipient was euthanased and the donor kidney was removed. Half of the donor kidney was used to extract RNA and half taken for immunohistochemical analysis. The RNA was extracted using the Tri reagent and stored in RNA Later. The qualitative best three RNAs from each group were quantified by fluorimetry and mixed in an equimolar manner and used for microarray analysis.
