Development of a Novel Air-Liquid Interface Airway Tissue Equivalent Model for In Vitro Respiratory Modeling Studies

ABSTRACT: The human airways are complex structures with important interactions between cells, extracellular matrix proteins and the biomechanical microenvironment. A robust, well-differentiated in vitro culture system that accurately models these interactions would provide a useful tool for studying normal and pathological airway biology. Here, we report the analysis of a physiologically relevant air-liquid interface (ALI) 3D airway ‘organ tissue equivalent’ (OTE) model with three novel features: native pulmonary fibroblasts, solubilized lung extracellular matrix (ECM), and hydrogel substrate with tunable stiffness and porosity. We demonstrate the versatility of the OTE model by evaluating the impact of these features on HBE cell phenotype. Variations of this model were analyzed during 28 days of ALI culture by evaluating epithelial confluence, trans-epithelial resistance (TEER), and epithelial phenotype via multispectral immuno-histochemistry and next-generation sequencing (NGS). Cultures that included both solubilized lung ECM and native pulmonary fibroblasts within the hydrogel substrate formed well differentiated ALI cultures that maintained a barrier function and expressed similar levels of goblet, club and ciliated markers to native airway tissue. Modulation of hydrogel stiffness did not negatively impact HBE differentiation and could be a valuable variable to alter epithelial phenotype. This study highlights the capability and versatility of a 3D airway OTE model to model the multiple components of the human airway 3D microenvironment.

Open chromatin and transcriptome analysis of iPSCs differentiated into lung epithelium at air-liquid interface reveals key transcriptional drivers and processes (RNA-seq data)

Project description:The availability of robust protocols to differentiate induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) into many human cell lineages has transformed research into the origins of human disease. The efficacy of differentiating iPSCs into specific cellular models is influenced by many factors including both intrinsic and extrinsic features. Among the most challenging models is the generation of human bronchial epithelium at air-liquid interface (HBE-ALI), which is the gold standard for many studies of respiratory diseases including cystic fibrosis. Here we perform open chromatin mapping by ATAC-seq and transcriptomics by RNA-seq in parallel, to define the functional genomics of key stages of the iPSC to HBE-ALI differentiation. Within open chromatin peaks the overrepresented motifs include the architectural protein CTCF at all stages, while motifs for the FOXA and GATA pioneer factors families are only seen at early stages, and those regulating key airway epithelial functions, such as EHF, are limited to later stages. The RNA-seq data illustrate dynamic pathways during the iPSC to HBE-ALI differentiation, and also the marked functional divergence of different iPSC lines at the ALI stages of differentiation. Moreover, a comparison of iPSC-derived and lung donor-derived HBE-ALI cultures reveals substantial differences between these models.

Do Airway Epithelium Air-liquid Cultures Represent the In Vivo Airway Epithelium Transcriptome?

Project description:Human airway epithelial cells cultured in vitro at air-liquid interface (ALI) form a pseudostratified epithelium that forms tight junctions and cilia, and produces mucin, and are widely used as a model of differentiation, injury, and repair. To assess how closely the transcriptome of ALI epithelium matches that of in vivo airway epithelial cells, we used microarrays to compare the transcriptome of human large airway epithelial cells cultured at ALI with the transcriptome of large airway epithelium obtained via bronchoscopy and brushing. Gene expression profiling showed global gene expression correlated well between ALI cells and brushed cells, but there were some differences. Gene expression patterns mirrored differences in proportions of cell types (ALI have higher percentages of basal cells, brushed cells have higher percentages of ciliated cells), with ALI cells expressing higher levels of basal cell-related genes and brushed cells expressing higher levels of cilia-related genes. Pathway analysis showed ALI cells had increased expression of cell cycle and proliferation genes, while brushed cells had increased expression of cytoskeletal organization and humoral immune response genes. Overall, ALI cells are a good representation of the in vivo airway epithelial transcriptome, but for some biologic questions, the differences in the in vitro vs in vivo environments need to be considered. Affymetrix arrays were used to assess the gene expression of large airway cells cultured in vitro at air-liquid interface (12 samples) and large airway epithelial cells obtained by fiberoptic bronchoscopy of 20 healthy nonsmokers. *** Air-liquid interface Samples not provided in this Series. ***

Changes in microRNA and mRNA expression with differentiation of human bronchial epithelial cells [mRNA]

Project description:Normal human bronchial epithelial (NHBE) cells cultured in an air-liquid interface (ALI) system form a polarized, pseudostratified epithelium composed of basal, ciliated and goblet cells that closely resemble the in vivo airway epithelium structure. ALI cultures of NHBE cells provide a unique in vitro system to investigate airway epithelial biology, including developmental, structural and physiologic aspects. In this study, we wanted to investigate mRNA expression patterns during airway epithelium differentiation. By using microarrays, we studied the changes in expression of mRNAs in normal human bronchial epithelial cells as they differentiate from an undifferentiated monolayer to a differentiated pseudostratified epithelium after 28 days of air-liquid interface (ALI) culture, when epithelial cells differentially express basal, ciliated and goblet cell markers. Normal human bronchial epithelial cells were cultured in an air-liquid interface (ALI) system and harvested at three different time-points: subconfluent, confluent and day 28 of ALI. Samples were processed for total RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. All the experiments were performed by triplicate.

Changes in microRNA and mRNA expression with differentiation of human bronchial epithelial cells [miRNA]

Project description:Normal human bronchial epithelial (NHBE) cells cultured in an air-liquid interface (ALI) system form a polarized, pseudostratified epithelium composed of basal, ciliated and goblet cells that closely resemble the in vivo airway epithelium structure. ALI cultures of NHBE cells provide a unique in vitro system to investigate airway epithelial biology, including developmental, structural and physiologic aspects. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short, single-stranded, non-coding RNAs of 20-23 nucleotides that down-regulate gene expression by either inducing degradation of target mRNAs or impairing their translation. They are phylogenetically well conserved, which probably implies an important role of miRNAs in biological processes. In this way, we wanted to shed some light on miRNA specific roles and the relationship with their mRNA targets during airway epithelium differentiation. By using microarrays, we studied the changes in expression of microRNAs in normal human bronchial epithelial cells as they differentiate from an undifferentiated monolayer to a differentiated pseudostratified epithelium after 28 days of air-liquid interface (ALI) culture, when epithelial cells differentially express basal, ciliated and goblet cell markers. Normal human bronchial epithelial cells were cultured in an air-liquid interface (ALI) system and harvested at three different time-points: subconfluent, confluent and day 28 of ALI. Samples were processed for total RNA (including small RNAs) extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. All the experiments were performed by triplicate.

Single-cell analysis of Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus infection in three-dimensional air-liquid interface culture model

Project description:The oral cavity has previously been identified as the major site for transmission of Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV), but how KSHV establishes infection and replication in the oral epithelia remains unclear. Here, we report a KSHV spontaneous lytic replication model using fully differentiated, three-dimensional (3D) oral epithelial organoids at an air-liquid interface (ALI). This model revealed that KSHV infected the oral epithelia when the basal epithelial cells were exposed by damage. Unlike two-dimensional (2D) cell culture, 3D oral epithelial organoid ALI culture allowed high levels of spontaneous KSHV lytic replication, where lytically replicating cells were enriched at the superficial layer of epithelial organoid. Single cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq) showed that KSHV infection induced drastic changes of host gene expression in infected as well as uninfected cells at the different epithelial layers, resulting in altered epithelial differentiation and morphogenesis. Moreover, we identified a unique population of infected cells containing lytic gene expression at the KSHV K2-K5 gene locus and distinct host and viral gene expression compared to latency or lytic replication. This study demonstrates an in vitro 3D epithelial organoid ALI culture model that recapitulates KSHV infection in the oral cavity, where KSHV undergoes the epithelial differentiation-dependent spontaneous lytic replication with a unique cell population carrying distinct viral gene expression.
