PolyA RNA-seq from Human esophageal biopsy samples from eosinophilic esophagitis patients

ABSTRACT: Analysis of steady-state mRNA levels in 27 samples from healthy controls and patients with fibrostenotic EoE and non-fibrostenotic EoE. Participants range 5 – 18 years old. EoE participants had >15 eosinophils per hpf (eos/hpf) and were classified as fibrostenotic (FS) or non-fibrostenotic (non-fs). FS EoE: having either a) a stricture and/or b) grade 2 or 3 concentric esophageal rings and an esophageal distensibility < 15 mm. Non-fs EoE: no clinical evidence for stricture, circumferential rings or history of food impaction. Included control subjects had no identified abnormalities on endoscopy or histology. Results provide insight into the pathways involved in fibrostenotic remodeling in EoE.

Persistent epithelial barrier dysfunction and Periostin accumulation in histologic remission Eosinophilic Esophagitis

Project description:Patients with Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) require long-lasting resolution of inflammation to prevent fibrostenosis and dysphagia. However, the dissociation between symptoms and histologic improvement suggests persistent molecular drivers despite remission. We aimed to characterize persisting molecular alterations in pediatric patients with EoE using tissue proteomics. Esophageal tissue biopsies (n=151) and clinical data were collected prospectively from pediatric patients with EoE (N=34), gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD; N=10; inflammatory controls) or functional disorders (FD; N=20; non-inflammatory controls). Biospies (n=131) acquired from the diagnostic endoscopy and up to 7 follow-ups were considered for proteome analysis in patients with EoE, while for GERD and FD only biopsies from initial diagnosis were included. Histologically active EoE (15 eosinophils per high power field (hpf)) was diagnosed in 79 biopsies and 52 samples derived from patients with EoE in remission (15 eosinophils per hpf). After microdissection of the epithelium proteins were extracted from the esophageal tissue followed by a liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Proteomic analysis identified 3,704 different proteins in total across all samples.

Amphiregulin-producing T helper 2 cells have critical role in esophageal fibrosis of EoE

Project description:Background: Massive eosinophil infiltration into the esophagus causes subepithelial fibrosis and esophageal stricture in patients with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). However, the pathogenesis of esophageal fibrosis remains unclear. Objective: The present study aimed to elucidate the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying the induction of esophageal fibrosis. Methods: We established a murine model of EoE accompanied by fibrotic responses following long-term intranasal administration of house dust mite (HDM) antigen. Using this murine model, we investigated the characteristics of immune cells infiltrating the fibrotic region of the inflamed esophagus using flow cytometry and histological analyses. We also analyzed the local inflammatory sites in the esophagus of patients with EoE using single-cell RNA sequencing, flow cytometry, and immunohistochemistry.

Differing Epithelial and Immunologic Activation Patterns Following Food Reintroduction Reveal Differential Transcriptional Profiles in Active Eosinophilic Esophagitis

Project description:During food trigger reintroductions, eosinophilia can recur in a patchy manner both endoscopically and histologically. We postulated that areas containing low eosinophils represented the early stage of EoE recurrence, while areas with >15 eos/HPF represented established active EoE. We identified ten patients with prior pan-esophageal EoE who experienced patchy eosinophilia during trigger food reintroduction. The progression of recurrent EoE is illustrated by the transcriptional changes occurring from baseline remission through recurrent low and high eosinophil tissues in those with paired time points. We identified novel genes of cytokine regulation distinct to the low eosinophil tissue, indicating involvement of such cytokines before the onset of diagnostic eosinophilic infiltration. The advancement to robust eosinophil is associated with more severe epithelial injury in conjunction with further inflammation. Utilization of a food antigen re-exposure model elucidates immunological and epithelial changes that instigate and perpetuate the development of EoE.

Transcriptomic profiling of esophageal epithelium reveals enrichment of IFN-γ response gene signature during active EoE.

Project description:Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is a chronic, allergic inflammatory disease of the esophageal mucosa. Although type 2 cytokines are predominant, targeting type 2 inflammation alone is not always effective for all patients. In EoE patients, the transcriptional profiling of esophageal biopsy reveals upregulation of type I and II interferon (IFN) response, dysregulated immune signaling, and downregulation of esophageal-specific genes. However, further investigation is needed to examine the gene expression changes in esophageal epithelium because it plays an important role in EoE. To investigate the upregulation of Interferon Stimulated Genes (ISGs) in EoE esophageal epithelium, we isolated epithelial cells from active EoE patients and non-EoE controls. We performed bulk RNA sequencing to analyze the epithelial-specific transcriptome in EoE. Unsupervised hierarchical clustering of the most variable genes differentiated the active EoE biopsies from non-EoE controls. Gene set enrichment analysis identified IFN-γ response as the most significant upregulated pathway.

Genome wide expression from esophageal biopsies of subjects with EoE-like inflammatory diseases, eosinophilic esophagitis, gastroesophageal reflux disease and healthy controls

Project description:Esophageal biopsy RNA was isolated from proximal esophageal biopsied RNA from patients with EoE-like inflammatory diseases (EoE-like esophagitis, lymphocytic esophagitis, non-specific esophagitis), patients with active EoE, patients with GERD, and unaffected healthy controls. EoE-like inflammatory disease patients were clinically active at the time when biopsies were taken. None of the patients (EoE-like inflammatory diseases, EoE, GERD and controls) were under anti-eosinophil treatment (including dietary restrictions). The quality of the RNA-seq data was assessed using fastqc v. 0.11.5 1) and RSeQC v. 2.6.4 2). The reads were mapped to the reference genome using HiSat2 v. 2.1.0 3). FeatureCounts v. 1.6.0 4) was used to count the number of reads overlapping with each gene as specified in the genome annotation (Homo_sapiens.GRCh38.94). The Bioconducture package DESeq2 5) was used to test for differential gene expression between the experimental groups. TopGo 6) was used to identify gene ontology terms containing unusually many differentially expressed genes. An interactive Shiny application was set up to facilitate the exploration and visualisation of the RNA-seq results. All analyses were run in R version 3.4.4 (2018-03-15)

Effect of IFN-α and IFN-γ on gene expression of 3D organoids derived from telomerase-immortalized normal human esophageal keratinocyte cell line, EPC2-hTERT.

Project description:Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is a chronic, allergic inflammatory disease of the esophageal mucosa. While type 2 cytokines are predominant, targeting type 2 inflammation alone is not always effective for all patients. In EoE patients, the transcriptional profiling of esophageal biopsy reveal upregulation of type I and II interferon (IFN) response, dysregulated immune signaling and downregulation of esophageal-specific genes in EoE patients. However, the role of interferon signaling during EoE is not fully understood. This study aims to investigate the impact of IFN signaling on esophageal epithelium and elucidate its role in EoE. IFN-γ stimulation of esophageal epithelial cells triggered disruption of tissue differentiation, epithelial barrier integrity and cytotoxicity, which are relevant features of EoE immunopathology. Beyond EoE, our findings offer insights into esophageal disorders which may involve increased IFN-γ signaling, including infections, gastrophageal reflux disease, and Barrett's esophagus.

Transcriptomic profiling of the acute mucosal response to local food injections in adults with eosinophilic esophagitis

Project description:Background: Exposure of the esophageal mucosa to food allergens can cause acute mucosal responses in patients with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE), but the underlying local immune mechanisms driving these acute responses are not well understood. Objective: To gain insight into the early transcriptomic changes that occur during an acute mucosal response to food allergens in EoE. Methods: Bulk RNA-sequencing was performed on esophageal biopsies from adult EoE patients (n = 5) collected before and 20 minutes after intramucosal injection of various food extracts in the esophagus. Baseline biopsies from non-EoE controls (n = 5) were also included. Results: At baseline, the transcriptome of the EoE patients showed increased expression of genes related to an EoE signature. After local food injection, we identified 40 genes with a potential role in the early immune response to food allergens (most notably CEBPB, IL1B, TNFSF18, PHLDA2, and SLC15A3). These 40 genes were enriched in processes related to immune activation, such as the acute phase response, cellular responses to external stimuli, and cell population proliferation. TNFSF18 (also called GITRL), a member of the TNF superfamily that is best studied for its co-stimulatory effect on T cells, was the most dysregulated early EoE gene showing a 12-fold increase compared with baseline and an 18-fold increase compared with a negative visual response. Further experiments showed that the esophageal epithelium may be an important source of TNFSF18 in EoE, which was rapidly induced by stimulating differentiated esophageal epithelial cells with the key EoE cytokine interleukin-13. Conclusion: Our data provide unprecedented insight into the transcriptomic changes that mediate the acute mucosal immune response to food allergens in EoE, and suggests that TNFSF18 may be an important effector molecule in this response.
