Project description:Genomic profiling of bleomycin- and saline-treated mice across 7 timepoints (1, 2, 7, 14, 21, 28, 35 days post treatment) was carried out in C57BL6/J mice to determine the phases of response to bleomycin treatment which correspond to onset of active pulmonary fibrosis. Temporal genomic characterization of lung homogenate from male C57BL6/J mice treated intratracheally with bleomycin or saline was carried out at 7 timepoints post treatment (1, 2, 7, 14, 21, 28, 35 days). Bleomycin (2U/kg) in 50 μl was intratracheally sprayed once into mice lightly anaesthetized with isoflurane (5% in 100% O2). Control animals received 50 μl of saline. Total RNA was isolated from the mouse lung tissue of bleomycin- and saline-treated mice across the 7 time points (n=8 per group) and homogenized in QIAzol reagent. Purified total RNA was amplified and labeled using NuGen Ovation kits (NuGEN Technologies, Inc., San Carlos, CA), and RNA from samples was hybridized to Affymetrix Mouse 430 2.0 arrays. One sample (saline treated, d14) was flagged as an outlier in principal component analysis and removed from subsequent analysis.

Project description:We perfomed a microRNA microarray on to assess differentially expressed miRNAs in bleomycin-induced lung fibrosis in mice. To induce pulmonary fibrosis, belomycine (Sigma-Aldrich, St Louis, MO) was dissolved and administred intratracheally at a dose of 1.5U/kg body weight. Control animals received saline only. 21 days post bleomycin treatment, mice were sacrificed and lung tissue were collected for RNA extraction and microRNA microarray.

Project description:Lung fibrosis represents the final common pathway of a variety of lung injuries, and it is characterized, independently of etiology, by the expansion of the fibroblast/myofibroblast population and by the abnormal accumulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) replacing normal functional parenchyma. In general, there is no effective therapy, and currently the only helpful available treatment for advanced lung fibrosis is transplantation. In this study we aimed to document the time-related reversibility of bleomycin-induced lung fibrosis, and to determine the gene expression patterns associated with the initial progression and the subsequent regression of the fibrotic response by microarray in this bleomycin mouse model of lung fibrosis. Mice (C57BL/6 ) aging 8 to 10 weeks were instilled intratracheally with 0.10 U/10 g of bleomycin (Blenoxane, Bristol-Myers Squibb Co.) in 50 μl sterile saline. Control animals received an equal volume of sterile saline (9, 10). Mice were housed in specific pathogen-free conditions and provided with food and water ad libitum. All studies and procedures were approved by the Science and Ethic Committee at the National Institute of Respiratory Diseases and were performed according to the protocols and guidelines of the institutional animal care and use committee. Mice were sacrificed at 7 days and 1, 2, 3, and 4 months after bleomycin or saline treatment. For every variable, six control and six experimental mice were used.

Project description:The preclinical model of bleomycin-induced lung fibrosis, used to investigate mechanisms related to idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), has incorrectly predicted efficacy for several candidate compounds suggesting that it may be of limited value. As an attempt to improve the predictive nature of this model, integrative bioinformatic approaches were used to compare molecular alterations in the lungs of bleomycin-treated mice and patients with IPF. Using gene set enrichment analysis we show for the first time that genes differentially expressed during the fibrotic phase of the single challenge bleomycin model were significantly enriched in the expression profiles of IPF patients. The genes that contributed most to the enrichment were largely involved in mitosis, growth factor, and matrix signaling. Interestingly, these same mitotic processes were increased in the expression profiles of fibroblasts isolated from rapidly progressing, but not slowly progressing, IPF patients relative to control subjects. The data also indicated that TGF? was not the sole mediator responsible for the changes observed in this model since the ALK-5 inhibitor SB525334 effectively attenuated some but not all of the fibrosis associated with this model. Although some would suggest that repetitive bleomycin injuries may more effectively model IPF-like changes, our data do not support this conclusion. Together, these data highlight that a single bleomycin instillation effectively replicates several of the specific pathogenic molecular changes associated with IPF, and may be best used as a model for patients with active disease.

Project description:We conducted fibroblast-specific transcriptome analysis by next generation sequencing in order to investigate qualitative change and activation signatures of lung fibroblasts in bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis. Lung fibroblasts were identified by using reporter mice of collagen-α2(I), in which collagen I-producing fibroblasts were labeled with EGFP. Lungs were dissociated with protease sollution, and single cell suspension were stained with lineage markers (Ter119, CD45, CD31, EpCAM). Lineage- GFP+ cells were sorted out and mRNA was collected. Using serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE) method, we identified 2,973,937 SAGE tags (1,080,798 tags from saline-treated GFP+ fibroblasts and 1,893,139 tags from bleomycin-treated GFP+ fibroblasts). We found that genes related to extracellular matrix construction were highly up-regulated in fibroblasts from belomycin-treated lungs. Moreover, an analysis of mRNA profiles revealed biological functions such as proliferation, invasion, adhesion, and migration were promoted in fibroblasts from bleomycin-treated lung, which recapitulated the role of fibroblasts in the fibrogenesis. These fibroblast-specific gene expression profiles will be important notions in future fibrosis studies. mRNA profiles of Lung fibroblasts from 3 mice at day 14 after saline or bleomycin treatment.

Project description:Wildtype mice were given saline or bleomycin by oropharyngeal instillation. After 14 days, during the fibrotic phase of the response, lungs were dissected and total RNA was extracted and used for gene expression profiling. The aim was to identify those genes regulated during the development of fibrosis in this animal model of bleomycin-induced lung fibrosis. Wildtype male C57Bl/6J mice (8-10 weeks old) were used in the study, with three mice per group. Bleomycin (1mg/kg body weight in 50μl of saline) or saline was administered by oropharyngeal installation as described previously by Lakatos et al, Exp Cell Res, 2006, under light halothane-induced anaesthesia. After 14 days, lungs were removed, blotted dry and the trachea and major airways were excised before the separated lobes were snap frozen in liquid nitrogen. Lungs were then pulverized under liquid nitrogen, and the resulting lung powder was used for total RNA extraction using Trizol. Following DNase-treatment, clean-up, cDNA synthesis and cRNA synthesis, samples were hybridized to Affymetrix MOE430A genechips using standard protocols. The data were analyzed using RMA with quantiles normalization.

Project description:Bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis in mice mimics major hallmarks of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, yet in this model it spontaneously resolves over time. We studied molecular mechanisms of fibrosis resolution and lung repair, focusing on transcriptional and proteomic signatures and the effect of aging. Young (3 months) and old (21 months) mice were treated with Bleomycin or with control saline solution and analyzed transcript and protein expression over 8 weeks (Day 0, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42, 49, 56).

Project description:Genomic profiling of RNA from cultured human fibroblasts of donor samples in the 10-14th passage was carried out to determine expression changes in the fibroblasts of individual with different degrees of pulmonary fibrosis. Donors consisted of individuals with rapid progressing pulmonary fibrosis, slow progressing pulmonary fibrosis, or no fibrosis. Genomic characterization of cultured human fibroblasts from donor samples was carried out in samples from donors with from 3 groups: rapid progressing pulmonary fibrosis, slow progressing pulmonary fibrosis, and non-fibrotic individuals. Large RNA (> ~ 200bp) was isolated from fibroblast cultures. Purified total RNA was amplified and labeled using NuGen Ovation kits (NuGEN Technologies, Inc., San Carlos, CA) and RNA from samples was hybridized to Affymetrix HG-U133 plus 2.0 arrays.
