Alternatively Spliced Variants of Interleukin-4 Promote Inflammation Differentially

ABSTRACT: IL-4d2 is a natural splice variant of IL-4 which lacks the region encoded by the second exon. Numerous recent reports suggested that the expression levels of IL-4d2 change in various diseases, especially those with pulmonary involvement, but the effects of IL-4d2 on the lungs in vivo have never been studied. Replication-deficient adenovirus-mediated gene delivery of mouse IL-4d2 to mouse lungs in vivo was used, and the effects compared with similar adenoviral delivery of mouse IL-4 or with infection with a NULL viral construct. The objective was to determine whether full-length wild-type Interleukin-4 encoded by exons 1-4 (IL-4) and alternatively spliced variant econded by exons 1,3, and 4 (IL-4d2) differentially affect gene expression in the lungs in vivo. The results show that IL-4d2 and IL-4 affected global gene expression differentially. Keywords: Comparative analysis of gene delivery of alternative splice variants in vivo

Validation of alternatively spliced protein isoforms in human mesenchymal stem cells

Project description:Alternative splicing of mRNA diversifies the function of human proteins, with tissue- and cell-specific protein isoforms being the most difficult to validate. While transcriptomic experiments enable the detection of many alternatively spliced transcripts, it is not known if these transcripts have protein-coding potential. We recently published the PG Nexus pipeline, which facilitates high confidence validation of exons and exon-exon junctions of spliced transcripts by integrating transcriptomics and proteomics data. Using the PG Nexus, we analyzed undifferentiated human mesenchymal stem cells and compared the number of protein isoforms validated using different protein sequence database, including public online databases and RNA-seq derived databases. With significant overlaps with other databases, we identified 8,011 exons and 3,824 splice junctions with the Ensembl database. Both exonic and junction peptides were important for protein isoform validation. The Ensembl database consistently outperformed the other data sources, but predicted open reading frames from RNA-seq derived transcripts were comparable, with only 6 less splice junctions validated. Using proteotypic and isoform-specific peptides, we validated 462 protein isoforms. This number increases to 1,083 if multiple proteotypic peptides per protein are included. Multiplexing proteotypic peptides in SRM assays or similar experiments will increase the confidence and coverage of protein isoform validation experiments.

Activation and Function of Alternatively and Classically Activated MH-S Alveolar Macrophages

Project description:Alveolar macrophages (AMs), the tissue dwelling monocytes of the lungs, are the first to encounter the menagerie of items that pass the mechanical barriers of the nose and throat. AMs must be able to mount an effective immune response against invading pathogens as well as maintain homeostasis in the lungs to avoid excessive inflammatory responses. In vivo data suggests that AMs can take on different phenotypes depending on the conditions of simulation. Limited progress has been made in defining the mechanisms responsible for these phenotypic issues largely due to logistical difficulties in isolating a sufficient number of cells from the lungs that have not been activated by the isolation protocol. To circumvent these logistical issues, an in vitro cell culture model was developed to study AM biology with specific emphasis on the generation of alternatively activated alveolar macrophages (AAAMs). Utilizing the BALB/c AM cell line MH-S it was determined that LPS could be used to generate classically activated AMs (CAAMs) and that IL-4 was effective in producing AAAMs. We examined the full transcriptome of AAAMs and CAAMs using microarray technology in an attempt to confirm previously described AAAM expression patterns and to identify new molecules associated with AM phenotypic change. AAAMs up-regulated an entirely distinct group of transcripts including genes encoding Arg1, Ym1 and a number of repair and remodeling genes whereas CAAMs up-regulated proinflammatory cytokines such as IL-1, IL-6 and IL-12. Additional novel markers are identified in this study to better characterize CAAMs and AAAMs in the lung. Keywords: Characterization of Cell Type Based on Activation Stimulus

Microarray validation of an alternative splicing database

Project description:Alternative splicing generates functional diversity in higher organisms through alternative first and last exons, skipped and included exons, intron retentions and alternative donor and acceptor sites. In large-scale microarray studies in human and mouse, emphasis so far has been placed on exon-skip events, leaving the prevalence and importance of other splice types largely unexplored. Using a new human splice variant database and a genome-wide microarray to probes thousands of splice events of each type, we measured differential expression of splice types across 6 pairs of diverse cell lines and validated the database annotation process. Results suggest that splicing in human is more complex than simple exon skip events, which account for a minority of splicing differences. The relative frequency of differential expression of the splice types correlates with what is found by our annotation efforts. In conclusion, alternative splicing in human cells is considerably more complex than the canonical example of the exon-skip. The complementary approaches of genome-wide annotation of alternative splicing in human and design of genome-wide splicing microarrays to measure differential splicing in biological samples provide a powerful high-throughput tool to study the role of alternative splicing in human biology.

Whole Genome Exon Arrays Identify Differential Expression of Alternatively Spliced, Cancer-related Genes in Lung Cancer

Project description:Alternative processing of pre-mRNA transcripts is a major source of protein diversity in eukaryotes and has been implicated in several disease processes including cancer. In this study we have performed a genome wide analysis of alternative splicing events with the GeneChip Human Exon 1.0 ST Array from Affymetrix in lung adenocarcinoma. We found that ~13.3% of the 17800 core Refseq genes appear to have alternative transcripts that are differentially expressed in lung adenocarcinoma versus normal. According to their known functions the largest subset of these genes (30.8%) is believed to be cancer related. Detailed analysis was performed for several genes using PCR, quantitative RT-PCR and DNA sequencing. We found overexpression of ERG variant 2 but not variant 1 in lung tumors and overexpression of CEACAM1 variant 1 but not variant 2 in lung tumors but not in breast or colon tumors. We also identified a novel, overexpressed variant of CDH3 and verified the overexpression of a novel variant of P16. These findings demonstrate how analysis of alternative pre-mRNA processing can shed additional light on differences between tumors and normal tissues as well as between different tumor types. Such studies may lead to the development of additional tools for tumor diagnosis, prognosis and therapy. Keywords: Alternative splice analysis of exon data with ANOVA compared tumor and matched normal 20 tumor/normal paired specimens (n=40). Tumor samples are from lung adeno carcinoma whereas normals are from adjacent normal lung tissue.
