Abnormal expression profile of plasma exosomal microRNAs in exclusive electronic cigarette adult users

ABSTRACT: Exposure to electronic cigarette (e-cigarette) aerosol has been linked to a number of health concerns, including DNA damage, elevated oxidative stress, release of inflammatory cytokine, and dysfunctions in epithelial barriers. However, little is known about the effect of exclusive e-cigarette use on expression profiles of exosomal miRNAs, which play critical regulatory roles in many inflammatory responses and disease process including cancer. We aim to compare the exosomal microRNAs expression profile between exclusive e-cigarette users and normal controls without any tobacco product use (non-users). Using blood and urine samples from exclusive e-cigarette users and non-users in the Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health (PATH) Wave 1 study (2013-2014), we examined exosomal microRNAs expression levels through Illumina NextSeq 500/550 sequencing. We identified microRNAs that have significantly higher expression levels in exclusive e-cigarette users than non-users. Gene enrichment analysis of these significant exosomal microRNAs showed their involvement in cancer related pathways, which might indicate a potential elevated risk of cancer among exclusive e-cigarette users.

Gene Expression Alterations in Bronchial Epithelium of Electronic Cigarette Users

Project description:Background: While electronic cigarette (ECIG) use is rapidly rising, their safety profile remains uncertain. The effects of tobacco cigarette (TCIG) smoke on bronchial airway epithelial gene-expression have provided insights into tobacco-related disease pathogenesis. Understanding the impact of electronic cigarettes (ECIGs) on airway gene-expression could provide insights into their potential long-term health effects. Objectives: We sought to compare the bronchial airway gene-expression profiles of former TCIG smokers now using ECIGs with the profiles of former and current TCIG smokers. Methods: We performed gene-expression profiling of bronchial epithelial cells collected from TCIG smokers not using ECIGs (n=21), former smokers using ECIGs (n=15), and current TCIG smokers not using ECIGs (n=9). We then compared our findings with previous studies of the effects of TCIG use on bronchial epithelium, as well an in vitro model of ECIG exposure. Results: Amongst 3,165 genes whose expression varied between the three study groups (q < 0.05), we identified 468 genes significantly altered in ECIG users relative to former smokers (p < 0.05). 79 of these genes were up or down-regulated concordantly between ECIG and TCIG. We did not detect ECIG-associated gene expression changes in known pathways associated with TCIG usage. Genes downregulated in ECIG users are enriched among the genes most downregulated by exposure of airway epithelium to ECIG vapor in vitro. Conclusions: TCIG exposure was associated with a larger number of airway gene-expression changes than with ECIG exposures. ECIGs induce both distinct and shared patterns of gene expression relative to TCIGs in the bronchial airway epithelium.

A Pilot Study Of Immunological and Microbiome Profiling Reveals Distinct Inflammatory Profiles For Smokers and Electronic Cigarette Users [re-analysis]

Project description:Background: Smoking increases pulmonary inflammation, but an effect by electronic cigarette (EC) vaping is less understood. We previously reported smokers (SM) had increased lung immune cell counts and inflammatory gene expression in bronchial epithelial cells compared to EC users and never-smokers (NS). Here we report association of smoking and vaping with immune cell subtypes and gene expression in bronchoalveolar lavage. Methods: SM, EC users, and NS underwent bronchoscopy (n=28). RNASeq and the CIBERSORT computational algorithm were used to determine immune cell subtypes, along with inflammatory gene expression and microbiome metatranscriptomics. Correlations and associations were assessed across and within the tobacco-use groups, corrected for false discovery rates. Results: Classification of macrophage subtypes revealed a 2-fold increase in M0 macrophages for smokers and EC users relative to never-smokers, with a concordant decrease in M2 macrophages. There were 68, 19, and 1 significantly differentially expressed inflammatory genes (DEG) (FDR<0.05; log2-fold change>1) between SM/NS, SM/EC users, and EC users/NS respectively. CSF-1 and GATA3 expression correlated positively and inversely with M0 and M2 macrophages respectively. Correlation profiling for DEG showed distinct lung profiles for each participant group. There were 3 bacteria genera-DEG correlations and 3 bacteria genera-macrophage subtype correlations (Diffcorr>0.5 and FDR<0.1). Conclusions: In this pilot study, smoking and EC use were associated with an increase in undifferentiated M0 macrophages, but smokers differed from EC users and NS for inflammatory gene expression. The preliminary data support the hypothesis that smoking and EC use have toxic lung effects influencing inflammatory responses, but not via changes in the microbiome.

Electronic cigarette exposure disrupts blood-brain barrier integrity, promotes neuroinflammation, and leads to cognitive dysfunction

Project description:Electronic cigarette (EC) use has grown substantially since entry into the US market, particularly among adolescents and combustible tobacco users. Despite growing popularity and claims of harm reduction, the health effects of these products outside the lung is poorly understood. Several constituents of cigarette smoke (CS) with known neurovascular and inflammatory effects are present in EC liquids or formed during the generation of vapor. The present study characterizes the impact of EC exposure on neuroinflammation and blood-brain barrier (BBB) function, and provides comparison of outcomes with reference cigarette exposure normalized to comparable levels of nicotine delivery. Additionally, the contribution of nicotine to observed effects is elucidated through comparison with EC liquids which are verified to be nicotine-free. C57BL/6 mice are exposed to 2 hrs of daily EC vapor or CS, beginning at 8 wks of age. Changes in BBB gene expression are first characterized by whole exome sequencing of isolated brain microvessels following chronic (2 month) EC exposure.

Effects of e-cigarette smoke on transcription profiles of PASMCs and AECII in mice

Project description:Cigarette smoke is a major risk factor for the development and progression of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Tobacco smoking is also the main cause of lung cancer and the main preventable cause of other lung and heart disease. Strategies to eliminate cigarette smoking have led to the emergence of new tobacco-related products as alternatives for cigarette smoking or tools for smoking cessation. Electronic cigarettes (E-cigarettes) have been introduced to the market in recent years as an alternative to smoking conventional cigarettes. E-cigarettes are nicotine delivery devices by heating and converting to aerosol a liquid mixture composed of propylene glycol, vegetable glycerine, flavouring chemicals, and nicotine. Despite the lack of appropriate studies, e-cigarettes are nowadays widely used and advertised as safe cigarette replacements and the number of users is rapidly growing. Unlike cigarette smoke, where the determinant effects are well studied and documented, very limited amount of research has been done on the health effects and public health of e-cigarettes. The study aims to investigate the effects of e-cigarette vapour extract on gene expression in different primary isolated mouse lung cells [pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells (PASMC) and alveolar epithelial type two cells (AECII)]. The cells will be exposed to e-cigarette vapour extract (ECVE).

Gene signature from lung tissue of e-cigarette users

Project description:Background: E-cigarette popularity is on the rise in youth and young adults, with mounting concerns regarding the long-term safety of these devices. Cell culture and animal models have highlighted the damaging potential of e-cigarettes, but to date there is a lack of data from human lung tissue to corroborate these findings. Methods: Using human lung tissue obtained during a bullectomy in young adults, we performed RNA-sequencing to uncover e-cigarette related changes to the human lung transcriptome. Information on e-cigarette use habits was collected via questionnaire. Findings: Individuals reporting daily e-cigarette use had a reduction in the abundance of mRNA for genes related to extracellular matrix formation and organization, but were enriched mRNA related to cilia function and formation. Genes associated with COPD pathophysiology, including MUC5B and TIMP1, were also affected by e-cigarette use. Interpretation: This first study to perform RNA-sequencing in human lung tissue from relatively young daily e-cigarette users identifies a gene signature that is consistent with an increased risk for future chronic lung disease. Importantly, many of these changes were present in individuals who don’t use traditional cigarettes, suggesting e-cigarette use alone can drive the molecular alterations we identified.

Transcriptomic responses in the blood and sputum of cigarette smokers compared to e-cigarette vapers

Project description:Objectives: To identify transcriptomic differences in the blood and sputum of e-cigarette users compared to conventional cigarettes smokers and healthy controls and describe biological pathways affected by these tobacco products. Methods: Cross-sectional analysis of whole blood and sputum RNA-sequencing data from 8 smokers, 9 e-cigarette users (e-cigs) and 4 controls. Weighted gene co-network analysis (WGCNA) identified gene module associations. Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) identified canonical pathways associated with tobacco products. Main Results: In blood, a three-group comparison showed 16 differentially expressed genes (DEGs); pair-wise comparison showed 7 DEGs between e-cigs and controls, 35 DEGs between smokers and controls, and 13 DEGs between smokers and e-cigs. In sputum, 438 DEGs were in the three-group comparison. In pair-wise comparisons, there were 2 DEGs between e-cigs and controls, 270 DEGs between smokers and controls, and 468 DEGs between smokers and e-cigs. Only 2 genes in the smokers vs. control comparison overlapped between blood and sputum. Most gene modules identified through WGCNA associated with tobacco product exposures also were associated with cotinine and exhaled CO levels. IPA showed multiple canonical pathways altered by conventional smoking but none by e-cigarette use. Conclusion: Cigarette smoking and e-cigarette use led to transcriptomic changes in both blood and sputum. However, conventional cigarettes induced much stronger transcriptomic responses in both compartments.
