Project description:Cystic fibrosis (CF) is characterized by chronic inflammation and excessive cytokines secretion in the lung. Isogenic human CF bronchial epithelial (CFBE41o-) cell lines stably expressing wt-CFTR (WTBE) or F508del mutant (CFBE) are widely used tools in understanding responses to stimuli or drugs and CF pathogenesis in vitro. However, their intrinsic cellular differences in culture are unknown. Hence, we performed integrative analyses at protein, mRNA and chromatin levels on these isogenic cell lines cultured in submerged and transwell condition. CFBE and WTBE cells displayed different secretion patterns on IL-6, IL-8, CXCL1, CXCL10, and CCL5 . The ALI culture dramatically increased cytokines secretion in both cells. ATAC-seq results showed that CFBE cells exhibited higher genome-wide chromatin accessibility than WTBE cells in both culture methods, but the relative openness of cytokine genes between two cells varied individually. Differentially expressed genes between two cell lines from mRNA sequencing were highly concentrated in immunity-related pathways. While the mRNA stability of CXCL10 and CXCL1 exhibited the most significant differences between cell lines in SUB culture, most cytokines had comparable mRNA stabilities within same culture method. Moreover, polarization of cells via transwell culture remodeled the chromatin accessibility and transcriptome. This multilayered studies presents a comprehensive baseline activities of CFBE and WTBE cells, further facilitating their usage and data interpretation as CF cell models.

Project description:RationaleTezacaftor (formerly VX-661) is an investigational small molecule that improves processing and trafficking of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) in vitro, and improves CFTR function alone and in combination with ivacaftor.ObjectivesTo evaluate the safety and efficacy of tezacaftor monotherapy and of tezacaftor/ivacaftor combination therapy in subjects with cystic fibrosis homozygous for F508del or compound heterozygous for F508del and G551D.MethodsThis was a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, multicenter, phase 2 study (NCT01531673). Subjects homozygous for F508del received tezacaftor (10 to 150 mg) every day alone or in combination with ivacaftor (150 mg every 12 h) in a dose escalation phase, as well as in a dosage regimen testing phase. Subjects compound heterozygous for F508del and G551D, taking physician-prescribed ivacaftor, received tezacaftor (100 mg every day).Measurements and main resultsPrimary endpoints were safety through Day 56 and change in sweat chloride from baseline through Day 28. Secondary endpoints included change in percent predicted FEV1 (ppFEV1) from baseline through Day 28 and pharmacokinetics. The incidence of adverse events was similar across treatment arms. Tezacaftor (100 mg every day)/ivacaftor (150 mg every 12 h) resulted in a 6.04 mmol/L decrease in sweat chloride and 3.75 percentage point increase in ppFEV1 in subjects homozygous for F508del, and a 7.02 mmol/L decrease in sweat chloride and 4.60 percentage point increase in ppFEV1 in subjects compound heterozygous for F508del and G551D from baseline through Day 28 (P < 0.05 for all).ConclusionsThese results support continued clinical development of tezacaftor (100 mg every day) in combination with ivacaftor (150 mg every 12 h) in subjects with cystic fibrosis. Clinical trial registered with www.clinicaltrials.gov (NCT01531673).

Project description:Background and purposeDysfunction of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) Cl(-) channel causes the genetic disease cystic fibrosis (CF). Towards the development of transformational drug therapies for CF, we investigated the channel function and action of CFTR potentiators on A561E, a CF mutation found frequently in Portugal. Like the most common CF mutation F508del, A561E causes a temperature-sensitive folding defect that prevents CFTR delivery to the cell membrane and is associated with severe disease.Experimental approachUsing baby hamster kidney cells expressing recombinant CFTR, we investigated CFTR expression by cell surface biotinylation, and function and pharmacology with the iodide efflux and patch-clamp techniques.Key resultsLow temperature incubation delivered a small proportion of A561E-CFTR protein to the cell surface. Like F508del-CFTR, low temperature-rescued A561E-CFTR exhibited a severe gating defect characterized by brief channel openings separated by prolonged channel closures. A561E-CFTR also exhibited thermoinstability, losing function more quickly than F508del-CFTR in cell-free membrane patches and intact cells. Using the iodide efflux assay, CFTR potentiators, including genistein and the clinically approved small-molecule ivacaftor, partially restored function to A561E-CFTR. Interestingly, ivacaftor restored wild-type levels of channel activity (as measured by open probability) to single A561E- and F508del-CFTR Cl(-) channels. However, it accentuated the thermoinstability of both mutants in cell-free membrane patches.Conclusions and implicationsLike F508del-CFTR, A561E-CFTR perturbs protein processing, thermostability and channel gating. CFTR potentiators partially restore channel function to low temperature-rescued A561E-CFTR. Transformational drug therapy for A561E-CFTR is likely to require CFTR correctors, CFTR potentiators and special attention to thermostability.

Project description:BackgroundMicroarray studies related to cystic fibrosis (CF) airway gene expression have gone some way in clarifying the complex molecular background of CF lung diseases, but have made little progress in defining a robust "molecular signature" associated with mutant CFTR expression. Disparate methodological and statistical analyses complicate comparisons between independent studies of the CF transcriptome, and although each study may be valid in isolation, the conclusions reached differ widely.MethodsWe carried out a small-scale whole genome microarray study of gene expression in human native nasal epithelial cells from F508del-CFTR homozygotes in comparison to non-CF controls. We performed superficial comparisons with other microarray datasets in an attempt to identify a subset of regulated genes that could act as a signature of F508del-CFTR expression in native airway tissue samples.ResultsAmong the alterations detected in CF, up-regulation of genes involved in cell proliferation, and down-regulation of cilia genes were the most notable. Other changes involved gene expression changes in calcium and membrane pathways, inflammation, defence response, wound healing and the involvement of estrogen signalling. Comparison of our data set with previously published studies allowed us to assess the consistency of independent microarray data sets, and shed light on the limitations of such snapshot studies in measuring a system as subtle and dynamic as the transcriptome. Comparison of in-vivo studies nevertheless yielded a small molecular CF signature worthy of future investigation.ConclusionsDespite the variability among the independent studies, the current CF transcriptome meta-analysis identified subsets of differentially expressed genes in native airway tissues which provide both interesting clues to CF pathogenesis and a possible CF biomarker.

Project description:Mutations in the CFTR gene lead to cystic fibrosis, a genetic disease associated with chronic infection and inflammation and ultimately respiratory failure. The most common CF-causing mutation is F508del and CFTR modulators (correctors and potentiators) are being developed to rescue its trafficking and activity defects. However, there are currently no modulators that stabilize the rescued membrane F508del-CFTR which is endocytosed and quickly degraded resulting in a shorter half-life than wild-type (WT). We previously reported that the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) MAPK pathway is involved in CFTR degradation upon cigarette smoke exposure. Interestingly, we found that ERK phosphorylation was increased in CF human bronchial epithelial (HBE) cells (CF-HBE41o- and primary CF-HBE) compared to non-CF controls, and this was likely due to signaling by the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). EGFR can be activated by several ligands, and we provide evidence that amphiregulin (AREG) is important for activating this signaling axis in CF. The natural osmolyte ectoine stabilizes membrane macromolecules. We show that ectoine decreases ERK phosphorylation, increases the half-life of rescued CFTR, and increases CFTR-mediated chloride transport in combination with the CFTR corrector VX-661. Additionally, ectoine reduces production of AREG and interleukin-8 by CF primary bronchial epithelial cells. In conclusion, EGFR-ERK signaling negatively regulates CFTR and is hyperactive in CF, and targeting this axis with ectoine may prove beneficial for CF patients.
