Training-associated alterations in equine respiratory immunity using RNAseq

ABSTRACT: Neutrophilic airway inflammation is highly prevalent in racehorses in training, with the term mild to moderate equine asthma (MMEA) being applied to the majority of such cases. The current study is largely derived from the strong association between MMEA in racehorses and their entry into a race training program; this has led to our primary aim of measuring the effect of race training on pulmonary immune cell function. The objectives of this study are to characterise the effect of training on the local pulmonary immune system and quantify the magnitude of effect by defining the gene expression of tracheal wash (TW) derived cells from Thoroughbred racehorses prior to (T0) and following commencement of race training (T1). This study demonstrated TW samples to represent a rich source of airway cells and RNA to study airway immunity in the horse and highlighted the benefits of advanced-omic methodological approach to studying the dynamics of equine airway immunity. Intense training induced quantifiable alterations in both gene expression of airway derived cells consistent with deregulation of airway immunity and haemopoietic abnormalities. Respectively, these findings likely reflect the known associations between race training and both airway inflammation and bleeding, in particular offering further insight into the potential mechanisms which underpin training associated airway inflammation.

Gene expression data of alveolar macrophages derived from Standardbred racehorses before and during training period

Project description:Mild to moderate equine asthma is prevalent in young racehorses, particularly early in their training period. Although the precise aetiopathogenesis remains undetermined, it is possible that the susceptibility of this population might partly reflect an exercise-associated immune derangement at the level of the airway. We performed a genome-wide basal gene expression scan on alveolar macrophages (AMs) isolated from Standardbred racehorses prior to and after commencement of competition race training with a view to identifying any exercise-associated gene expression modulation consistent with functional alterations which might reflect training-associated immunological derangement.

Equine gluteal muscle LC-MSMS: Thoroughbred

Project description:Recurrent exertional rhabdomyolysis (RER) develops in 5-10% of Thoroughbred racehorses. High-stress environments, nervous temperament, and diet influence the presentation of RER. RER-susceptibility is associated with alterations in intramuscular Ca2+ regulation with detrimental effects on mitochondria. Our study aims to determine underlying molecular drivers influencing RER-susceptibility by comparing the muscle proteome of control, RER-susceptible, and RER horses treated with dantrolene. Animals used in this study were Thoroughbred mares in race training between episodes of RER.

Analysis of Unannotated Equine Transcripts Identified by mRNA Sequencing

Project description:Horse-specific genes are not readily identified from available equine EST/cDNA resources due to relatively limited coverage. In addition, equine gene sets predicted in silico by Ensembl and NCBI will not identify horse specific genes since they rely on homology-based projection of gene structure annotation from other species. In this study, RNA-seq of 8 equine RNA samples representing 6 distinct tissues was performed and used to improve and refine equine gene structure annotation. The samples and RNA were collected as part of the related study E-GEOD-21925 and are described in Coleman et al 2010. Anim Genet 41 Suppl 2: 121-30 (PMID: 21070285). The RNA from these samples was re-sequenced in this experiment. The tissues were i). the articular cartilage and synovial membrane samples from a 3-year-old male pony. The left carpal joints received four LPS injections (0.5 ng) over 8 days, while the right carpal joints received control injections of PBS. ii) A cerebellum sample was collected from a 2-year-old female thoroughbred. iii) A testis sample from a 4-year-old thoroughbred. iv) A placental villous sample collected immediately post-partum from a full-term female thoroughbred foal. v) A whole embryo sample was obtained from a 34-day-old male thoroughbred conceptus. The embryo, cerebellum, testis and placental samples were of apparent normal gross morphology.

Characterization of the equine skeletal muscle transcriptome identifies novel functional responses to exercise training

Project description:Digital gene expression profiling was used to characterize the assembly of genes expressed in equine skeletal muscle and to identify the subset of genes that were differentially expressed following a ten month period of exercise training. The study cohort comprised 7 thoroughbred racehorses from a single training yard. Skeletal muscle biopsies were collected at rest from the gluteus medius at two time points: T1 (unconditioned), (9 +/- 0.5 months old) and T2 (conditioned) (20 +/- 0.7 months old). The most highly abundant genes in the muscle transcriptome were those involved in muscle contraction, aerobic respiration and mitochondrial function. A previously unreported over-representation of genes relating to RNA processing, the stress response and proteolysis was observed. Following training 92 tags were differentially expressed of which 74 were annotated. Sixteen genes showed increased expression, including the mitochondrial genes, ACADVL, MRPS21 and SLC25A29. Among the 58 genes with deceased expression MSTN, a negative regulator of muscle growth had the greatest decrease. Functional analysis of all expressed genes using FatiScan revealed an asymmetric distribution of 482 Gene Ontology groups and 18 KEGG pathways. Functional groups with highly significantly (P < 0.0001) increased expression included mitochondrion, oxidative phosphorylation and fatty acid metabolism while functional groups with decreased expression were mainly associated with structural genes and included the sarcoplasm, laminin complex and cytoskeleton.

Enrichment of Lung Microbiome Associated with Pulmonary Inflammation

Project description:Background: The lung microbiome of healthy individuals frequently harbors oral organisms. Despite evidence that micro-aspiration is commonly associated with smoking-related lung diseases, the effects of lung microbiome enrichment with upper airway taxa on inflammation has not been studied. We hypothesize that the presence of oral microorganisms in the lung microbiome is associated with enhanced pulmonary inflammation. Methods: We sampled bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) from the lower airways of 29 asymptomatic subjects (9 never-smokers, 14 former-smokers and 6 current-smokers). We quantified, amplified, and sequenced 16S rRNA genes from BAL samples by qPCR and 454 sequencing. Pulmonary inflammation was assessed by exhaled nitric oxide (eNO), BAL lymphocytes and neutrophils. Results: BAL had lower total 16S than supraglottic samples and higher than saline background. Bacterial communities in the lower airway clustered in two distinct groups that we designated as pneumotypes. The rRNA gene concentration and microbial community of the first pneumotype was similar to that of the saline background. The second pneumotype had higher rRNA gene concentration and higher relative abundance of supraglottic-characteristic taxa (SCT), such as Veillonella and Prevotella, and we called it pneumotypeSCT. Smoking had no effect on pneumotype allocation, alpha or beta diversity. PneumotypeSCT was associated with higher BAL lymphocyte-count (p = 0.007), BAL neutrophil-count (p = 0.034) and eNO (p = 0.022). Conclusion: A pneumotype with high relative abundance of supraglottic-characteristic taxa is associated with enhanced subclinical lung inflammation.

The inflammatory response of human airway smooth muscle cells

Project description:Background: Tissue remodeling induced by airway inflammation is a main trigger of pathogenesis in various chronic lung diseases like asthma, COPD, IPF, and pulmonary hypertension. The role of human airway smooth muscle cells (HASMCs) in this context is unclear. Hypothesis: HASMCs participate in linking inflammation with remodeling. Methods: The inflammatory responses of ex vivo-cultivated HASMCs to TNFÎ± were investigated by whole-genome-microarray analyses. Diferrential regulation of genes associated with airway inflammation and remodeling were verified by qRT-PCR and ELISA. Results: TNFa induced the expression of 18 cytokines/chemokines and five tissue remodeling genes involved in (severe/corticosteroid-insensitive) asthma, COPD, IPF and/or pulmonary hypertension. Conclusion: HASMCs participate in the interaction of inflammation and tissue remodeling. HASMCs might be considered as targets in therapies of chronic inflammatory lung diseases with regard to attenuating inflammation-induced remodeling processes leading to the development of emphysema or fibrosis. HASMCs of eight donors were left untreated of were stimulated with TNFa at 20 ng/ml. Total RNA was subjected after eight hours of stimulation to whole-human-genome oligo microarray analysis.
