The role of hepatic endothelial c-Kit in regulating the homeostasis and pathogenesis of the liver

ABSTRACT: To investigate the role of hepatic EC-specific endothelial marker—c-Kit in the regulation of vascular homeostasis and liver pathogenesis. We firtly generated endothelial cell-specific conditional c-Kit knock out and their control mice. LSECs isolated from control and EC-specific c-Kit KO mice were subjected to RNA-seq. Second, c-Kit+ LSECs were purified using anti-CD117 magenetic beads and the eluted fraction was further incubated with anti-CD146 magnetic beads to obtain c-Kit- LSECs. c-Kit- LSECs and c-Kit+ LSECs were thereafter compared through transcriptome analysis as well. To further elucidate the function of c-Kit+ LSECs in modulating NASH pathogenesis of the liver challenged by MCD-diet, bulk CD146+ LSECs were purified from MCD mice (4w) subjected with c-Kit+ or c-Kit- LSECs infusion respectively at the last week, and compared by RNA-sequencing.

Primary human umbilical vein and arterial endothelial cells

Project description:Human umbilical cords were obtained from the Lucille Packard Children Hospital. In this study, we devised a rapid isolation scheme to preserve the in vivo phenotype of each endothelial subtype. ECs were first isolated from umbilical cords by collagenase perfusion through the vein or artery as described. Cells were further purified using a Percoll density gradient (Amersham Biosciences, Piscataway, NJ) to remove residual erythrocytes and platelets. 1-5 x 106 ECs were then cultured overnight on gelatin-coated T12.5 flasks in Clonetics EGM-2 media (Cambrex Bio Science, Walkersville, MD) in which the ECs generally reached confluence the next morning. The confluent EC were trypsinized and subjected to two rounds of immuno-magnetic beads purification, adapted from a published purification protocol. There was a negative selection step using CD14, CD45 and CD64 to remove residual contaminating leukocytes, followed by positive selection using a mouse anti-endothelial cell monoclonal antibody (anti-CD146/clone P1H12 purchased from Chemicon, Temecula, CA). Total processing time was limited to 20 to 24 hours. The homogeneous, viable, primary ECs were used immediately to construct the library. The construction of SAGE libraries was performed with the I-SAGE kit (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA) per manufacturer’s instructions Keywords: other

Single-cell RNA sequencing reveals transcriptome alterations of liver sinusoidal endothelial cells in different zonal microenvironments of cirrhotic livers

Project description:Dysfunction of liver endothelial cells (ECs), especially sinusoid endothelial cells (LSECs), play a key role in progression of liver fibrosis/cirrhosis. Here, we reported a map which reveals heterogeneity and spatial distribution of liver ECs in normal versus cirrhotic mouse liver and determined liver zonal specific transcriptomic changes of LSECs associated with liver cirrhosis using single-cell RNA sequencing technology. We identified 6 clusters of liver EC populations including 3 clusters of LSECs, 2 clusters of vascular ECs (arterial and central venous ECs) and 1 cluster of lymphatic ECs. Particularly, we mapped the 3 clusters of LSECs in Zone1-3. We found that liver EC identities are conserved even in liver cirrhosis and that Zone3 LSECs are most susceptible to damages associated with liver cirrhosis with increased capillarization and decreased abilities to regulate endocytosis and vascular tone. Altogether, this study deepens our knowledge for the pathophysiology of cirrhosis at a spatial and cell-specific level, which are indispensable for the development of novel therapeutic strategies to target liver ECs.

Transcriptome of human liver cells and culture-activated hepatic stellate cells

Project description:The molecular determinants of a healthy human liver cell phenotype remain largely uncharacterized. In addition, the gene expression changes associated with activation of primary human hepatic stellate cells, a key event during fibrogenesis, remain poorly characterized. Here, we provide the transriptomic profile underpinning the healthy phenotype of human hepatocytes, liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs) and quiescent hepatic stellate cells (qHSCs) as well as activated HSCs (aHSCs) We assess the transcriptome for purified, non-cultured human hepatocytes, liver sinusoidal cells (LSECs) and quiescent hepatic stellate cells (qHSCs) as well as culture-activated HSCs (aHSCs). Hepatocytes (n=2 donors), LSECs (n=3), qHSCs (n=3) and in vitro activated HSCs (n=3; from the same donors as the qHSCs and LSECs) were used for this study.

Genome-wide analysis of DNA methylation and gene expression patterns in purified, uncultured human liver cells and activated hepatic stellate cells

Project description:The human liver contains multiple cell types whose epigenetic patterns are undetermined. We examined the promoter methylome of purified and uncultured hepatic stellate cells (HSCs), hepatocytes (HEPs) and liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs), by methylated DNA immunoprecipitation (MeDIP) and array hybridization. Uncultured HSCs, LSECs and Heps show ~7000-8000 methylated promoters, with 60-70% similarity between all cell types. GO analysis for commonly methylated genes reveals involvement in germ cell development, segregating germ-line from somatic lineage methylation. HSCs, LSECs and HEPs also contain ~500-1000 uniquely methylated promoters; these are implicated in signaling and biosynthetic processes (HSCs), lipid transport and metabolism (LSECs), and chromatin assembly (HEPs). The promoter methylome of culture-activated HSCs deviates from that of their uncultured (quiescent) counterparts. HSC culture-induced activation also enhances methylation differences between individual donors; however this does not necessarily relate to changes in gene expression. HSc activation results in a net gain of promoter DNA methylation, despite the demethylation and de novo methylation of thousands of promoters. Our data provide to our knowledge the first genome-wide maps of promoter DNA methylation in human purified and uncultured liver cell types. Although methylation profiles are largely similar between HSCs, LSECs and hepatocytes, the detection of cell type-specific methylation patterns suggests a differential epigenetic programming of these cell types in the liver. Determine the promoter DNA methylation pattern of 3 uncultured, reshly isolated, human healthy liver cell types (hepatocytes (HEPs), liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs) and haptic stellate cells (HSCs), and of HSCs after a 24-h culture-induced activation.

RNA-sequence data of mouse liver sinusoidal endothelial cells on day 14 after partial hepatectomy (PHx) or sham operation

Project description:The cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in liver regeneration following partial hepatectomy (PHx) are complicated. Liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs) play key roles in orchestrating liver regeneration, especially during the inductive phase and angiogenic phase post PHx (from day 0 to day 8). However, the expression profile of LSECs during the late phase of regeneration remains poorly explored. Thus, we purified LSECs from mice underwent PHx or sham operation at day 14 to unravel their transcriptome changes in the late phase of liver regeneration.

Gene expression array analysis of tumor-propagating cell populations in human osteosarcoma

Project description:Gene expression profiling of side population cells (SP) and CD146+ cells from primary human osteosarcoma. We aimed to identify genes that differentially regulated between the tumor propagating cells and the bulk tumor cells. Total RNA was isolated from SP, Non-SP(NSP), CD146+ and CD146- cells. The RNA is converted to cDNA using Nugen Ovation Kit (Nugen, CA, USA) and subjected to Illumina HT-12 array.
