Project description:To determine hypoxia mediated changes in whole blood, normal swiss webster mice were gradually exposed to a chronic hypobaric hypoxic environment up to 8500m, for 2 weeks in vivo. Control, age-matched mice were maintained under normoxic conditions in Kathmandu (c. 1300 mts above sea level). Purpose: To examine and characterize the expression profile of genes expressed at hypobaric hypoxia on Mt. Everest of whole blood in comparison to the control. Methods: At the beginning of the experiment mice were divided into two groups, control (room condition, Kathmandu, Nepal) and hypoxic (hypoxic condition). For conditioning, the hypoxic group was exposed to lower levels of hypobaric hypoxia during our mountaineering expedition to Mt Everest. The oxygen level was decreased according to our climbing protocol from 21% to about 7% over a period of 15 days. Food and water were changed daily during the course of the experiment. After 15 days animals were euthanized after whole blood extraction from V. Cava for further analysis. RNA from whole blood was isolated, processed and used for microarray-based expression profiling. Profiles were generated for genes differentially expressed at control versus hypobaric hypoxia in whole blood using a false discovery rate (FDR) of 0%.We validated the profiles by real-time quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). Results: The regional transcriptomes associated with hypobaric hypoxia on Mt. Everest in whole blood were identified. We found 947 genes that were differentially expressed in normobaric hypoxic whole blood compared to control with a 0% FDR and a 2 fold cutoff. Conclusion: Transcriptome level differences exist between control and hypobaric hypoxia in whole blood. Our definition of the synaptic transcriptome provides insight into the functioning of the unique response to hypoxia in whole blood.

Project description:Extreme hypobaria is a novel abiotic stress that is outside the evolutionary experience of terrestrial plants. In natural environments, the practical limit of atmospheric pressure experienced by higher plants is about 50 kPa or ~.5 atmospheres; a limit that is primarily imposed by the combined stresses inherent to high altitude conditions of terrestrial mountains. However, in highly controlled chambers and within extra-terrestrial greenhouses the atmospheric pressure component can be isolated from other high altitude stresses such as temperature, desiccation, and even hypoxia. In addition, hypobaria can be carried to extremes beyond what is possible in terrestrial biomes, and explored as a single variable in the examination of plant responses to novel stress. Previous studies have shown that plants adjust to hypobaric stress by differentially expressing suites of genes in unique combinations that are not equal to the dissected components of hypobaric stress (such as hypoxia and desiccation). Here we examine the organ-specific progression of transcriptional strategies for physiological adaptation to hypobaric stress over time. An abrupt transition from a near-sea level pressure of 97 kPa to only 5 kPa is accompanied by the differential expression of hundreds of genes. However, the transcriptomic reaction to hypobaric conditions lying between these two extremes reveals complex, organ-specific responses that vary over a time course of hypobaric exposure, and that are also not linear with respect to a simple gradient of severity. It is also clear that plants adjust over time such that the gene expression patterns that are initially elicited to cope with hypobaria are mediated as plants adjust their metabolism to this environment. The patterns of genome-wide changes in gene expression across a gradient of atmospheric pressures, and over a time course of several days allows for the development of theories of how plant metabolisms may be adapting to changes in atmospheric pressures.

Project description:To determine hypoxia mediated changes in whole blood, normal C57Bl/10 mice were gradually exposed to a chronic hypoxic environment, equivalent to an altitude of 6500m, for 2 weeks in vivo. Control, age-matched mice were maintained under normoxic, normobaric conditions by exposing them to ambient air in Philadelphia (c. 50 mts above sea level). Purpose: To determine the expression profile of genes differentially expressed in mouse whole blood upon exposure to normobaric hypoxia in vivo. Methods: The hypoxic group consisting of 6 C57/BL10 mice was exposed to normobaric hypoxia, in a specially designed and hermetically closed hypoxic chamber, using a gas mixing system Pegas 4000 MF (Columbus Instruments, Ohio, USA). The oxygen level was decreased from 21% to 8% over a period of 14 days. 6 control mice were kept at normal oxygen and pressure levels by exposing them to ambient air in Philadelphia (c. 50 mts above sea level). RNA from whole blood was isolated, processed and used for microarray-based expression profiling. Profiles were generated for genes differentially expressed at control versus normobaric hypoxia in whole blood using a false discovery rate (FDR) of 0%. The Profile was validated by real-time quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) on 2 biologically independent samples, not used for generating the profile. Results: The transcriptomes associated with normobaric hypoxia in whole blood were identified. We found 4723 genes that were differentially expressed in normobaric hypoxic whole blood compared to control with a 0% FDR and a 2 fold cutoff. Conclusion: Transcriptome level differences exist in the whole blood of animals subjected to normobaric hypoxia. Our definition of the normobaric hypoxia blood transcriptome provides insight into the functioning and response to hypoxia in whole blood.

Project description:For individuals migrating to or residing permanently at high-altitude regions, environmental hypobaric hypoxia is a primary challenge which induces several physiological or pathological responses. It is well documented that human beings adapt to hypobaric hypoxia via some protective mechanisms, such as erythropoiesis and overproduction of hemoglobin, however little is known on the changes of plasma proteome profiles in accommodation to high-altitude hypobaric hypoxia. In the present study, we investigated differential plasma proteomes of high altitude natives and lowland normal controls by a TMT-based proteomic approach. A total of 818 proteins were identified, of which 137 were differentially altered. Bioinformatics (including GO, KEGG, protein-protein interactions, etc.) analysis revealed the dysregulated proteins were primarily involved in complement and coagulation cascades, anti-oxidative stress and glycolysis. Validations via magnetic Luminex® Assays and ELISA demonstrated that CCL18, C9, PF4, MPO and S100A9 notably up-regulated, and HRG and F11 down-regulated in high altitude natives compared with lowland controls, which were consistent with the proteomic results. Our findings highlight the roles of complement and coagulation cascades, anti-oxidative stress and glycolysis in acclimatization to hypobaric hypoxia and provide a foundation for developing potential diagnostic or/and therapeutic biomarkers for high altitude hypobaric hypoxia-induced diseases.
