Project description:Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), a chronic pulmonary sequela of preterm birth, increases susceptibility to respiratory viral infection. Exposure to hyperoxia of neontal mice (a model of BPD) increases the number of activated, IL-12 producing lung CD103+ dendritic cells (DCs) and augments the inflammatory response to rhinovirus infection. We used microarray analysis to detail the effect of hyperoxia on the gene expression of the two main subsets of lung cDC, including CD103+ DCs and CD11bhi DC. We identified distinct up- and down-regulated genes in response to hyperoxia in both cDC subclasses.

Project description:Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is characterized by an arrest in alveolarization, abnormal vascular development and variable interstitial fibroproliferation in the premature lung. Endothelial to mesenchymal transition (Endo-MT) may be a source of pathologic fibrosis in many organ systems. Whether Endo-MT contributes to the pathogenesis of BPD is not known. We tested the hypothesis that pulmonary endothelial cells will show increased expression of Endo-MT markers upon exposure to hyperoxia and that sex as a biological variable will modulate differences in expression. WT and Cdh5-PAC CreERT2 (endothelial reporter) neonatal male and female mice (C57BL6) were exposed to hyperoxia (0.95 FiO2) either during the saccular stage of lung development (95% FiO2; PND1-5) or through the saccular and early alveolar stages of lung development (75% FiO2; PND1-14). Expression of Endo-MT markers were measured in whole lung and endothelial cell mRNA. Sorted lung endothelial cells were subjected to bulk RNA-Seq. We show that exposure of the neonatal lung to hyperoxia leads to upregulation of key markers of EndoMT Neonatal male mice show higher expression of genes related to EndoMT. Furthermore, using lung sc-RNAseq data from neonatal lung we were able to show that xxx. Markers related to Endo-MT are upregulated in the neonatal lung upon exposure to hyperoxia and show sex-specific differences. Mechanisms mediating EndoMT in the injured neonatal lung can modulate the response of the neonatal lung to hyperoxic injury and need further investigation.

Project description:Sprague-Dawley (SD) rat pups exposed to room air (NOX) or 95% O2 (HOX) from P1-P10 to study the role of cellular senescence in bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). Markers of cellular senescence in the lungs were obtained at P10 and P21. ScRNAseq of the lungs were obtained at P10 to study cell type-specific cellular senescence.

Project description:Oxidative stress (OS), inflammation, and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress sequentially occur in the rat model of hyperoxia (HOX) induced bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), and they all increase DNA damage. Tumor suppressors increase after DNA damage, followed by apoptosis or cellular senescence when the damage becomes irreparable. Although cellular senescence contributes to wound healing, its persistence will inhibit growth potential. Therefore, we hypothesized that the persistence of cellular senescence plays a role in BPD progression. We detected evidence of increased cellular senescence in rat and human BPD lungs. Foxo4-p53 binding was increased in BPD rat lungs, and inhibition of this binding attenuated BPD severity, indicating that such binding contributes to BPD's cellular senescence. Treatment with tauroursodeoxycholic acid (TUDCA) decreases ER stress. N-Acetyl-lysyltyrosylcysteine-amide (KYC) reduced toxic oxidant production by myeloperoxidase (MPO) and subsequent OS and inflammation. Both agents effectively decreased cellular senescence. Concomitantly, alveolar complexity and the number of type 2 alveolar cells increased, indicating that MPO-mediated OS and ER stress preceded cellular senescence in BPD rat pup lungs. These data suggest that cellular senescence plays an essential role in BPD progression. Reducing MPO toxic oxidant production, ER stress, and attenuating cellular senescence are potential therapeutic strategies for halting BPD progression. Using multiomic data to investigate the role of cellular senescence in the development of BPD in rat model.

Project description:Impaired angiogenesis characterized by the reduced proliferation of pulmonary endothelial cells leads to reduced capillary density in patients with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). In a mouse model of BPD, perinatal hyperoxic injury decreases the number of the recently identified lung capillary stem cells termed as general capillary (gCap) cells, along with the specific reduction of Ntrk2, which encodes for Tropomyosin receptor kinase B (TRKB) within this subpopulation. Herein, we determine whether TRKB signaling is required for perinatal gCap cell proliferation and further promoting pulmonary angiogenesis using the hyperoxia mouse BPD model. TRKB activation by BDNF treatment led to enhanced tube-forming ability of endothelial cells in vitro. In vivo treatment of mice with BDNF increased the proliferation of gCap cells and alleviated capillary loss caused by hyperoxic injury. Conversely, inhibition of TRKB signaling disrupted the tube formation of endothelial cells and exaggerated the vascular endothelial damage caused by hyperoxia. We further show that MAPK/ERK signaling might act downstream of TRKB to modulate pulmonary angiogenesis. These data indicate that TRKB signaling play a critical role in pulmonary angiogenesis upon perinatal lung injury, supporting the concept that TRKB activation might be a potential therapeutic for preserving endothelial cells for lung diseases associated with prematurity.

Project description:During late lung development, alveolar and microvascular development is finalized to enable sufficient gas exchange. Impaired late lung development manifests as bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in preterm infants. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) allows for assessment of complex cellular dynamics during biological processes, such as development. Here, we use MULTI-seq to generate scRNA-seq profiles of over 66,000 cells from 36 mice during normal or impaired lung development secondary to hyperoxia. We observed dynamic populations of cells, including several rare cell types and putative progenitors. Hyperoxia exposure, which mimics the BPD phenotype, alters the composition of all cellular compartments, particularly alveolar epithelium, capillary endothelium and macrophage populations. Pathway analysis and predicted dynamic cellular crosstalk suggests inflammatory signalling as the main driver of hyperoxia-induced changes. Our data provides a novel single-cell view of cellular changes associated with late lung development in health and in disease.

Project description:Background: Nrf2 is an essential cytoprotective transcription factor. However, association of Nrf2 in organ development and neonatal disease is rarely examined. Hyperoxia exposure to newborn rodents generates pulmonary phenotypes which resemble bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) of prematurity. Methods: To investigate the role of Nrf2 in lung maturation and BPD pathogenesis, Nrf2-deficient (Nrf2-/-) and wild-type (Nrf2+/+) neonates were exposed to air or hyperoxia (O2). Transcriptome analysis determined Nrf2-directed mechanisms in premature lung. Lung injury was assessed by bronchoalveolar lavage analysis and histopathology. Results: In Nrf2-/- neonates, basal expression of cell cycle machinery, redox balance, and lipid/carbohydrate metabolism genes were suppressed while immunity genes were overexpressed compared to Nrf2+/+ pups. O2-induced mortality and pulmonary inflammation/injury were significantly higher in Nrf2-/- than in Nrf2+/+. Lung DNA lesion and oxidation were greater in Nrf2-/- than in Nrf2+/+, constitutively and after O2. Nrf2-dependent genes modulated cellular growth/proliferation, defense, immunity, and lipid metabolism against hyperoxia. Bioinformatic elucidation of Nrf2 binding motifs and augmented O2-induced inflammation in genetically deficient neonates validated Gpx2 and Marco as Nrf2 effectors. Conclusion: Overall, Nrf2 in underdeveloped lungs orchestrated cell cycle, morphogenesis, and immunity as well as cellular defense constitutively and under oxidant stress. Results provide putative molecular mechanisms of Nrf2-directed lung alveolarization and BPD of prematurity. PARALLEL study design with 42 samples comparing 14 groups of age (P1 to P4 corresponding to day 0 to day 3 animals), gene, and exposure: (4 groups Nrf+/+ wild type P1-P4 air exposure) (4 groups Nrf -/- knockout P1-P4 air exposure), (3 groups Nrf+/+ wild type P2-P4 with 100 percent O2 (hyperoxia exposure) and 3 groupsNrf -/- knockout P2-P4 with 100 percent O2 (hyperoxia exposure)) Biological replicates: 3 per group
