Vascularized Macrophage-Islet Organoids to Model Immune-Mediated Pancreatic beta cell Pyroptosis upon Viral Infection [scRNAseq.VMI]

ABSTRACT: Immune cells play critical roles in causing host damage in various diseases, including infectious diseases. However, there is a paucity of human models to study immune-mediated host damage. Here, we systematically analyzed the changes in immune cell composition for COVID-19 pancreatic autopsy samples using the GeoMx spatial RNA and protein platform and found accumulation of proinflammatory macrophages. Single cell RNA-seq analysis of human islets upon SARS-CoV-2 or Coxsackievirus B4 (CVB4) infection identified the activation of proinflammatory macrophages and pyroptosis in β cells. To distinguish whether the virus or proinflammatory macrophages mediated β cell pyroptosis, we developed human pluripotent stem cell (hPSC)-derived vascularized macrophage-islet (VMI) organoids, containing pancreatic endocrine cells, endothelial cells, and macrophages. Both pancreatic β cells and endothelial cells in VMI organoids demonstrated improved marker expression and function compared to separately cultured cells. Additionally, proinflammatory macrophages in VMI organoids were found to induce β cell pyroptosis. Further mechanistic studies identified TNFSF12-TNFRSF12A as a contributor to proinflammatory macrophage-mediated β cell pyroptosis. Together, this study established a hPSC-derived VMI organoid as a valuable tool for studying immune cell-mediated host damage and uncovered previous unknown mechanism of β cell damage in viral infection.

Propargite, an environmental chemical, interacts with GWAS identified diabetes genes to impact human pancreatic β-cell death [PTPN2 knockout]

Project description:This paper describes the first time a high-content environmental chemicals screen using pancreatic β-like cells derived from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs), and discovered that a commonly used pesticide, propargite, induces pancreatic β-cell DNA damage and necrosis. More interestingly, we found out the genetic background of β-like cells affects their response to propargite-induced toxicity, based on isogenic hPSC platform, including for variants GWAS identified associated with T1D, since isogenic GSTT1-/- and PTPN2-/- pancreatic β-like cells are hypersensitive to propargite-induced β-cell death both in vitro and in vivo. In summary, our study identified an environmental chemical that contributes to the loss of β-cells and provides an innovative platform for using hPSC-derived cells to explore gene-environment interactions that impact diabetes disease progression.

Targeting pyroptosis with nanoparticles to alleviate neuroinflammatory for preventing secondary damage following traumatic brain injury

Project description:Post-traumatic neuroinflammation is a key driver of secondary injury after traumatic brain injury (TBI). Pyroptosis, a proinflammatory form of programmed cell death, considerably activates strong neuroinflammation and amplifies the inflammatory response by releasing inflammatory contents. Therefore, treatments targeting pyroptosis may beneficially effects for the treatment of secondary brain damage after TBI. Herein, a cysteine-alanine-glutamine-lysine (CAQK) peptide-modified β-lactoglobulin (β-LG) nanoparticle was constructed to deliver disulfiram (DSF), C-β-LG/DSF, to inhibit pyroptosis and decrease neuroinflammation, thereby preventing TBI-induced secondary injury. In the post-TBI mice model, C-β-LG/DSF selectively targets the injured brain, increases DSF accumulation, and extends the time of the systemic circulation of DSF. C-β-LG/DSF can alleviate brain edema and inflammatory response, inhibit secondary brain injury, promote learning, and improve memory recovery in mice after trauma. Therefore, this study likely provided a new approach for reducing the secondary spread of TBI.

A Platform to Define Cellular Targets of SARS-COV-2 Infection Using Human Pluripotent Stem Cell-Derived Cells and Organoids

Project description:The SARS-CoV-2 virus has already caused over a million COVID-19 cases and over fifty-thousand deaths globally. There is an urgent need to create novel models to study SARS-CoV-2 virus using human disease-relevant cells and tissues to understand key features of virus biology. We present a platform comprised of nine different cell and organoid derivatives from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) representing all three primary germ layers, including lung progenitors and alveolar type II (AT2) cells, pancreatic endocrine cells, liver organoids, endothelial cells, cardiomyocytes, macrophages, microglia, and both cortical and dopaminergic neurons. We systematically probed which cell types are permissive to SARS-CoV-2 infection. Human pancreatic beta cells and hepatocytes were strikingly permissive to SARS-CoV-2 infection, further validated using adult primary human islets and liver organoids. Both in vitro and in a humanized mouse model, human lung progenitors and AT2 cells express the ACE2 viral receptor and were highly permissive to SARS-CoV-2 infection. Transcriptomic analysis following SARS-CoV-2 infection of hPSC-derived pancreatic and lung organoids revealed upregulation of chemokines but not type I/III interferon signaling, similar to what was seen in primary human COVID-19 pulmonary infection. Therefore, hPSC-derived cells phenocopy human COVID-19 disease and provide a valuable resource to understand SARS-CoV-2 biology and search for novel therapeutics.

Modeling human T-cell mediated beta cell destruction

Project description:Autoimmune destruction of pancreatic β cells underlies type 1 diabetes (T1D). To understand T-cell mediated immune impact on human pancreatic β cells, we combine β cell specific expression of a model antigen CD19 and anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cells. Co-culturing CD19-expressing -like cells and CD19 CAR-T cells results in T-cell mediated β-like cell death with release of activated T cell cytokines. Transcriptome analysis of β-like cells and human islets treated with conditioned medium of the immune reaction identifies upregulation of immune reaction genes and the pyroptosis mediator GSDMD as well as its activator CASP4. Caspase-4-mediated cleaved GSDMD is detected in β-like cells under inflammation and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress conditions. Among the immune regulatory genes, PDL1 is one of the most upregulated, and PDL1 overexpression partially protects β-like cells in mice transplanted with human β cells. This experimental platform identifies potential mechanisms of β cell destruction and may allow testing therapeutic strategies.

Differentiated human stem cells resemble fetal, not adult, β cells

Project description:Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) have the potential to generate any human cell type, and one widely recognized goal is to make pancreatic β cells. To this end, comparisons between differentiated cell types produced in vitro and their in vivo counterparts are essential to validate hPSC-derived cells. Genome-wide transcriptional analysis of sorted insulin-expressing (INS(+)) cells derived from three independent hPSC lines, human fetal pancreata, and adult human islets points to two major conclusions: (i) Different hPSC lines produce highly similar INS(+) cells and (ii) hPSC-derived INS(+) (hPSC-INS(+)) cells more closely resemble human fetal β cells than adult β cells. This study provides a direct comparison of transcriptional programs between pure hPSC-INS(+) cells and true β cells and provides a catalog of genes whose manipulation may convert hPSC-INS(+) cells into functional β cells

Islet-Autonomous Inflammatory Signaling Propagates Autoimmunity and Promotes Diabetes in Nonobese Diabetic Mice

Project description:Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an immune-mediated disease that leads to β cell dysfunction and death. However, the contribution of β cells in this process remains unclear. To understand how islet-derived pro-inflammatory signaling pathways contribute to diabetes pathogenesis, we generated inducible islet-specific Alox15 knockout mice on the NOD background. We report that islet-specific deletion of Alox15 induced a substantial increase of β-cell mass and decreased islet insulitis, and ultimately lead to a protection against spontaneous autoimmune diabetes in NOD mice. Single cell RNA-sequencing and mass spectrometry analysis revealed that islet-specific knockout of Alox15 leads to an increase of β cells expressing Pd-l1 and promotes an anti-inflammatory phenotype in myeloid cells and T cells inside the islets. Furthermore, islet- specific Alox15 deletion enhances the expansion of M2-like macrophages and regulatory T cells in the pancreatic islets and pancreatic lymph nodes. Together, these results lead to the conclusion that proinflammatory signals produced by β cells allows these cells to express immunoregulators that protects these cells of immune cell attack and promote β cell survival.
