Differentially expressed genes affected by CSRNP1 overexpression in human-derived vaginal fibroblasts

ABSTRACT: Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is a group of diseases caused by extracellular matrix (ECM) degradation in the pelvic supportive tissues. Cysteine and serine rich nuclear protein 1 (CSRNP1) is involved in cell proliferation and survival regulation, and reportedly facilitates collagen breakdown in human chondrocytes. We here uncovered CSRNP1 as a key driver on collagen degradation in human-derived vaginal fibroblasts. Apoptosis of POP patient-derived vaginal fibroblasts was suppressed after knocking down CSRNP1. Silencing of CSRNP1 inhibited hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-triggered apoptosis, ROS generation and collagen loss in normal vaginal fibroblasts. In line with this, CSRNP1 overexpression led to proliferation inhibition, apoptosis and collagen degradation in normal subject-derived vaginal fibroblasts. Silencing of CSRNP1 also reduced the expression of cell senescence markers p21 and γ-H2Ax (the histone H2Ax phosphorylated at Ser139), as well as curbed collagen breakdown in normal vaginal fibroblasts caused by a DNA damage agent etoposide. Transcriptomic analysis showed that differentially expressed genes affected by CSRNP1 overexpression in normal vaginal fibroblasts were mainly enriched in the Wnt signaling pathway, which was crucial for the onset and progression of POP. Silencing of CSRNP1 upregulated the expression of nuclear β-catenin and induced nuclear translocation of β-catenin in H2O2-induced normal vaginal fibroblast. Furthermore, collagen deposition caused by CSRNP1 knockdown was curbed after treatment with a Wnt pathway inhibitor DKK1. Our study indicates that the CSRNP1 may be involved in POP progression through the Wnt signaling, which provides a potential therapeutic strategy for POP.

Project description:The overall purpose of this University of Utah Pelvic Organ Prolapse Disorder Study was to identify and localize predisposition genes contributing to pelvic organ prolapse (POP). POP cases recruited for this study were identified by one of three methods: high-risk POP pedigree cases, POP sister pairs, and surgically-treated POP cases reporting a family history of POP. High-risk POP pedigree cases were identified using the Utah Population Database (UPDB), a genealogy database of residents in Utah that has been linked to diagnostic ICD9 and CPT codes in medical records at the University of Utah and Intermountain Healthcare. We identified families with a significant excess number of POP cases compared to matched population rates and targeted these individuals for recruitment as well as any other POP cases in the family. POP sister pair cases were identified at the University of Utah Urogyncology clinic for women who had undergone POP surgery and also self-reported one or more sisters who were also surgically treated for POP. POP affection status of all sisters was confirmed either by physical examination or by chart review. Surgically treated-POP cases reporting a family history of POP were identified at the University of Utah Urogyncology clinic by self-report of a family history of POP. Efforts were made to recruit other affected family members and confirm affection status. To obtain DNA, subjects provided either a blood specimen or saliva. Medical records were reviewed by a urogynecologist and diagnostic information for pelvic organ prolapse and stress and overactive bladder were obtained. Collected DNA was genotyped and analyzed. To maintain confidentiality of the familial data, genetic data from only one subject per family has been submitted to dbGaP. Use of the University of Utah Pelvic Organ Prolapse Disorder Study data is limited to investigators studying pelvic floor disorders. These pelvic floor disorders include pelvic organ prolapse, urinary and anal incontinence, and other conditions related to weakening or injury to the muscles and connective tissue in the pelvis as a result of pelvic surgery, pregnancy, or vaginal delivery of a child. These data will be used only for research purposes related to pelvic floor disorders. They will not be used to determine the individual identity of any person or their relationship to another person or for research on non-disease traits.
