Project description:Cholangiocyte organoids provide a powerful tool for characterizing bile duct epithelium and expanding cholangiocytes for tissue engineering purposes. However, this involves invasively obtained tissue-biopsies via surgery which is not preferential and limits the patient-specific capacities of these cultures. To overcome this, organoid culture were initiated from minimal invasive bile-samples obtained during routine clinical procedures. Characterization revealed that these bile-cholangiocyte organoids originate from the extrahepatic bile duct and are capable to repopulate human extrahepatic bile duct scaffolds. With this, bile duct tissue engineering as well as personalized disease modelling is in sight.

Project description:Assays in bile duct cancer patients showed 984 CNVs in 306 CNV regions (CNVR) distributed throughout all 22 chromosomes. Bile duct cancer patients had a mean of 21.8 gains and 19.2 losses of genes, with an average of 35.9 CNVRs per patient. Frequent sites of gains were at chromosomes 22q11.22, 2p11.2-p.11.1, 14q32.33 and 17q12, whereas frequent sites of losses were at 19q12-q13.43.

Project description:Liver dysfunction and cirrhosis affect vasculature in several organ systems and cause impairment of organ functions, thereby increasing morbidity and mortality. If a mouse model of hepatopulmonary syndrome (HPS) could be established, greater insight into the genetic basis of the disease would be gained. Our objectives were to establish a mouse model of lung injury after common bile duct ligation (CBDL) and to investigate pulmonary pathogenesis for application in future therapeutic approaches. Balb/c mice were subjected to CBDL. Immunohistochemical analyses and real-time quantitative reverse transcriptional polymerase chain reaction were performed on pulmonary tissues. The presence of HPS markers were detected by western blot and microarray analyses. We observed extensive proliferation of CD31-positive pulmonary vascular endothelial cells 2 weeks after CBDL, and identified 11 up-regulated and 8 down-regulated proteins that were associated with angiogenesis. MMP-9 protein was highly expressed at 3 weeks after CBDL, and less expressed in lungs of the control group. Contrary to our expectation, lung pathology in our mouse model exhibited differences from that of rat models, and the mechanisms responsible for these differences are unknown. This phenomenon may be explained by contrasting processes related to TNF induction of angiogenic signaling pathways in the inflammatory phase; thus, we suggest that our mouse model can be applied to pulmonary pathological analyses in the inflammatory phase, i.e., to systemic inflammatory response syndrome, acute lung injury, and MOD syndrome. After induction of anesthesia, a median abdominal incision was made and the common bile duct was identified. The duct was dissected carefully under a microscope, and doubly ligated with 7-0 Prolene and transected. In the sham operation (control) group, the duct was dissected without common bile duct ligation. Mice were sacrificed at 2 and 3 weeks after surgery. CD31-positive cells were assembled from three mice in each group.

Project description:Despite the impact of bile duct disorders, treatment options remain very limited. Poor access to biliary tissue and restrictions in long-term culture or significant expansion of primary cholangiocytes have posed major challenges for research in the field. These limitations have so far precluded large scale experiments such as transcriptomic and genome-wide analyses which are urgently needed to better understand biliary physiology and pathophysiology. To address this issue, we have developed a novel system for the isolation and propagation of primary cholangiocytes from the extrahepatic bile ducts. The resulting Extrahepatic Cholangiocyte Organoids (ECOs) maintain their genetic stability, transcriptomic profile and function over long term culture and are compatible with regenerative medicine applications such as biliary reconstruction. We established a novel protocol for the isolation and propagation of primary cholangiocytes from the extrahepatic biliary tree in the form of extrahepatic cholangiocyte organoids (ECOs). The aim of this experiment was to provide in depth characterisation of the transcriptome of ECOs during long term culture. We compare the transcriptome of ECOs cultured for 1 passage (P1), 10 passages (P10) and 20 passages (P20) with freshly isolated primary cholangiocytes from the common bile duct. Embryonic Stem Cells (ES) cells are used as a negative control=
