Project description:In patients with severe kidney disease AVF are surgically placed in order to create good access for hemodialysis. In these dialysis patients the failure rates of AVF can be as high as 24% within 6 months after surgery, causing ineffective dialysis and necessitating additional clinical interventions. The pathological processes known to lead to AVF failure are beginning to be unravelled include the formation of venous neointimal hyperplasia (VNIH), thrombosis (Chang et al. PMID 16105066), and venous stenosis (Kanterman et al. PMID7892454, Tang et al. 1998), resulting in a reduced blood flow through the fistula. We established a rat model for AVF failure in human kidney dialysis patients. The characterization of this model has been previously described (Globerman et al. 2011, PubmedID:22002501). In this model the AVFs are surgically constructed in the right leg by connecting the superficial epigastric vein SEV to the common femoral artery (CFA), resulting in exposure of the SEV to arterial pressure with pulsatile and low resistant flow patterns (Globerman et al. 2011, PMID22002501). In the present study we utilized this AVF model in order to assess the effects of arterialized flow, with consequent pathological changes of the vessel wall due to surgical AVF instalment, on the transcriptome of endothelium from the SEV. Within the SEV these pathologies of the vessel wall include the formation of NIH in the main branch, and stenosis in the side branches. By employing this rat model we assessed the changes of the endothelial transcriptome in relation to these pathologies in order to gain mechanistic understanding of the potential roles of venous endothelium in AVF failure, as well as to identify potential biomarkers preceding AVF failure.

AVF surgery was performed on N=6 rats, and 13-14 days after surgery the rats were sacrificed. AVFs were extracted from the rats, and microarray transcriptome analyses were performed on luminal endothelial cells that isolated from four different sites of the AVF by employing Laser Capture Microdissection (LCM). These sites included (i) N=5 AVF sections of the superficial epigastric vein (SEV) with neointimal hyperplasia (NIH), (ii) N=3 AVF sections of SEV side branches with luminal stenosis, (iii), N=6 sections of the SEV located distally from a ligation thereby omitting exposure to arterialized flow and consequently preventing the development of NIH or stenosis, and (iv) N=3 sections of the AVF common femoral artery without signs of NIH or stenosis.

Project description:Background: Although clinical outcome of arteriovenous fistula (AVF) as a preferred vascular access for hemodialysis has been inadequate, biological mechanisms of AVF maturation and failure is still poorly understood. Since our mouse AVF model recapitulates human AVF maturation and partial failure, we hypothesized that high throughput RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) analysis would identify early changes in gene expression that might predict AVF maturation and failure. Method: Aortocaval fistula creation (AVF group) or sham operation (sham group) was performed with C57BL/6 mice (10 wk). Ultrasound was performed to confirm the AVF patency and to measure hemodynamics. Venous limbs were collected on postoperative day 7 and total RNA was extracted. After Poly-A mRNA libraries were constructed, RNA-seq was performed. Differentially expressed genes (DEG) were identified, and subsequent enrichment analyses of gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathways were performed with bioinformatics techniques. Results: 1057 DEG were identified between the AVF and sham groups. Genes in metabolic pathways were significantly downregulated in the AVF. Since gene expression patterns among the AVF group were significantly heterogenous, the AVF group was divided into 2 groups (‘normal’ AVF group; nAVF and ‘outliers’ group; OUT), and subgroup analyses were performed. Although physiological data of body weight change and hemodynamics were not different between the nAVF and OUT groups, 413 DEG were identified between them. Enrichment analyses showed significant overrepresentation of metabolism, immunity, and coagulation in the OUT group. Comparing the nAVF group with the sham group, 403 DEG were identified. Enrichment analyses showed increase of gene expression related to cell cycle, extracellular matrix, and immunity. Comparing these results with previously published data, the gene expression patterns of the nAVF group was consistent with AVF maturation and adaptive remodeling, whereas the OUT group showed attenuated difference, suggesting the heterogeneity of the AVF group reflects early gene expression changes in the process of AVF maturation and failure. Significant sex differences were not observed in the AVF group. Conclusions: A small subset of AVF undergoes aberrant biological processes in the early phase including diminished ECM remodeling, activated coagulation and upregulated metabolism, that could lead to fistula failure. Detection of these processes might be a viable translational strategy to predict fistula failure and reduce patient morbidity.

Project description:Previous studies have shown that the vascular system regulates brain clearance via arterial blood flow and the lymphatic drainage of CSF. Here, we examined the hypothesis that cerebral venous blood flow may participate in brain clearance as an intermediate compartment between the arterial and lymphatic poles of the vascular system. Transcriptomic analyses provided insights into the molecular mechanisms driving dural lymphatic remodeling within the dura mater.

Project description:Development of spider veins is caused by the remodeling of veins located in the upper dermis and promoted by risk factors such as obesity or pregnancy that chronically increase venous pressure. We have repeatedly shown that the pressure-induced increase in biomechanical wall stress is sufficient to evoke the formation of enlarged corkscrew-like superficial veins in mice. Subsequent experimental approaches revealed that interference with endothelial- and/or smooth muscle cell activation counteracts this remodeling process. Here, we investigate whether the herbal agent glycyrrhetinic acid (GA) is a suitable candidate for that purpose given its anti-proliferative as well as anti-oxidative properties. While basic abilities of cultured venous smooth muscle cells (SMCs) such as migration and proliferation were not influenced by GA, it inhibited proliferation but not angiogenic sprouting of human venous endothelial cells (ECs). Further analyses of biomechanically stimulated ECs revealed that GA inhibits the DNA binding capacity of the mechanosensitive transcription factor activator protein-1 (AP-1) which, however, had only a minor impact on the endothelial transcriptome. Nevertheless, by decreasing gelatinase activity in ECs or mouse veins exposed to biomechanical stress, GA diminished a crucial cellular response in the context of venous remodeling. In line with the observed inhibitory effects, local transdermal application of GA attenuated pressure-mediated enlargement of veins in the mouse auricle. In summary, our data identifies GA as an inhibitor of EC proliferation, gelatinase activity and venous remodeling. It may thus have the capacity to attenuate spider vein formation and remodeling in humans.
