Human transcriptome analysis of acute responses to glucose ingestion reveals a role of leukocytes in hyperglycemia induced inflammation.

ABSTRACT: Objective was to examine acute gene expression responses to physiologic oral glucose ingestion in human circulating leukocytes. Microarray study of human circulating leukocytes sampled before, 1 hour after and 2 hours after glucose ingestion was performed. The present study demonstrated 36 genes which showed acute gene expression change in human leukocytes within 1 hour after glucose ingestion and suggest that leukocytes participate in the inflammatory process induced by acute hyperglycemia.

Project description:Monitoring genome-wide, cell-specific responses to human disease, although challenging, holds great promise for medicineâs future. Patients with injury severe enough to develop multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) are known to have multiple immune derangements, including T-cell apoptosis and anergy combined with depressed monocyte antigen presentation. Genome-wide expression analysis of highly-enriched circulating leukocyte subpopulations, combined with cell-specific pathway analyses, offers a previously unavailable opportunity to discover novel leukocyte regulatory networks in critically injured patients. Severe injury induced significant changes in the T-cell, monocyte, and total leukocyte transcriptome, with only 12% of these genomic changes common to all three cell populations. T-cell-specific pathway analyses identified increased gene expression of several novel inhibitory receptors (PD-1, CD152, NRP-1, Lag3), and concomitant decreases in stimulatory receptors (CD28, CD4, IL-2Rï¡). Functional analysis of T-cells and monocytes confirmed reduced T-cell proliferation and increased cell surface expression of negative signaling receptors paired with decreased monocyte costimulation ligands. Thus, genome-wide expression from highly-enriched cell populations combined with knowledge-based pathway analyses leads to the identification of novel regulatory networks differentially expressed in injured patients. Importantly, application of cell separation, genome-wide expression, and cell specific pathway analyses can be used to discover novel pathway alterations in human disease. Experiment Overall Design: Type of experiment: Gene expression profiling of circulating total blood Experiment Overall Design: leukocytes, T-Cells, and Monocytes in severe trauma patients and healthy subjects. Experiment Overall Design: Experimental factors: Healthy subjects, 7 severely traumatized patients Experiment Overall Design: and 7 healthy subjects for transcriptome analysis. Venous blood samples Experiment Overall Design: were collected. Total blood leukocytes were isolated, and T-cell and Experiment Overall Design: monocyte populations were obtained from two subsequent aliquots of the Experiment Overall Design: leukocytes. Total leukocytes, enriched T-cells, and enriched monocytes were analyzed using Affymetrix GeneChip arrays.

Project description:Background&aims: Patients with acute decompensation (AD) of cirrhosis progressing to acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) present a systemic hyperinflammatory response associated with increased circulating levels of small-molecule metabolites. To investigate whether these alterations reflect inadequate cell energy output, we assessed mitochondrial morphology and central metabolic pathways with emphasis on the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle in peripheral leukocytes from AD patients with and without ACLF. Methods: The study included samples from AD patients (102 without and 126 with ACLF) along with 41 healthy subjects. Leukocyte mitochondria ultrastructure was visualized by transmission electron microscopy and cytosolic and mitochondrial metabolic fluxes were determined by assessing NADH/FADH 2 production from various substrates. Plasma GDF15 and FGF21 were determined by Luminex and acylcarnitines by LC-MS/MS. Gene expression was analyzed by RNA-seq and PCR-based glucose metabolism profiler array. Results: Mitochondrial ultrastructure in patients with advanced cirrhosis was distinguished by cristae rarefication and swelling. The number of mitochondria per leukocyte was higher in patients, accompanied by a reduction in their size. Increased FGF21 and C:6- and C:8-carnitines predicted mortality whereas GDF15 strongly correlated with a gene set signature related to leukocyte activation. Metabolic flux analyses revealed increased energy production in mononuclear leukocytes from patients with preferential involvement of extra-mitochondrial pathways, supported by upregulated expression of genes encoding enzymes of the glycolytic and pentose phosphate pathways. In ACLF patients, mitochondrial function analysis uncovered two break-points in the TCA cycle at the isocitrate dehydrogenase and succinate dehydrogenase level, which were bridged by anaplerotic reactions involving glutaminolysis and nucleoside metabolism. Conclusions: Our findings provide evidence at the cellular, organelle and biochemical levels that severe mitochondrial dysfunction governs immunometabolism in leukocytes from patients with AD cirrhosis and ACLF.
