Project description:The influence of 2D and 3D cell culture platforms on vascular function was investigated by comparing gene expression for human pluripotent stem cell-derived endothelial cells (H1-ECs), primary human brain vascular pericytes (pericytes), and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) cultured on tissue culture polystyrene (TCP, “2D”), on or in poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) hydrogels formed via “thiol-ene” photopolymerization, and on or in gelled Matrigel. ECs cocultured with pericytes in PEG formed vascular networks with global gene expression that was highly correlated to a standard 3D Matrigel assay (Spearman’s coefficients ≥ 0.98). H1-ECs, HUVECs, and pericytes were characterized gene expression signatures associated with the cell cycle and mitosis when cultured on TCP surfaces compared to cells cultured on top of or encapsulated in PEG hydrogels or Matrigel. The proliferative signature was not necessarily a function of the 2D format, since endothelial cells cultured on PEG hydrogels were not characterized by increased proliferation or a proliferative gene signature compared to cells encapsulated in PEG hydrogels. The proliferative phenotype for H1-ECs on TCP was regulated by FAK-ERK activity, and inhibition or knockdown of ERK pathway signaling decreased proliferation and cell cycle genes while increasing expression of “3D-like” vasculature development genes. Our results suggest that cells in 2D culture adopt a highly proliferative state that interferes with normal vascular function and provides unique insight into the importance of cellular and extracellular context for in vitro tissue modeling.

Project description:A transcriptomic expression comparison was done among superior cervical ganglion (SCG) cells cultured on 2D substrates, 3D porous polystyrene scaffolds, and in freshly dissected tissue (in vivo surrogate), with the goal of assessing the feasibility of establishing the meaning of 3D and associated physiological relevance at the molecular level SCG cells were cultured on 2D surfaces and in 3D scaffolds. Chemical cues are controlled by coating. Only spacial properties of the culture systems were compared. Cells from freshly dissected tissue were used as in vivo surrogates for positive control of 3D cells.

Project description:Aortic valve stenosis (AVS) is a progressive disease wherein males develop valve calcification relative to females that develop valve fibrosis. Valvular interstitial cells (VICs) aberrantly activate to myofibroblasts during AVS, driving the fibrotic valve phenotype in females. Myofibroblasts further differentiate into osteoblast-like cells and secrete calcium nanoparticles, driving valve calcification in males. We hypothesized the lysine demethylase UTY (ubiquitously transcribed tetratricopeptide repeat containing, Y-linked) decreases methylation uniquely in response to nanoparticle cues in the valve extracellular matrix to promote an osteoblast-like phenotype. Here, we describe a bioinspired hydrogel cell culture platform to interrogate how nanoscale cues modulate sex-specific methylation states in VICs activating to myofibroblasts and osteoblast-like cells. We found UTY (ubiquitously transcribed tetratricopeptide repeat containing, Y-linked) modulates VIC phenotypes in response to nanoscale cues uniquely in males. Overall, we reveal a novel role of UTY in the regulation of calcification processes in males during AVS progression.

Project description:Fibrotic diseases have significant health impact and have been associated with differentiation of the resident fibroblasts into myofibroblasts. In particular, stiffened extracellular matrix and TGF-β1 in fibrotic lesions have been shown to promote pathogenic myofibroblast activation and progression of fibrosis in various tissues. To better understand the roles of mechanical and chemical cues on myofibroblast differentiation and how they may crosstalk, we cultured primary valvular interstitial cells (VICs) isolated from porcine aortic valves and studied how traditional TCPS culture, which presents a non-physiologically stiff environment, and TGF-β1 affect native VIC phenotypes. We carried out gene expression profiling using porcine genome microarrays from Affymetrix and found that traditional TCPS culture induces major changes in gene expression of native VICs, rendering these cells more activated and similar to cells treated with TGF-β1. We also monitored time-dependent effects induced by TGF-β1 by examining gene expression changes induced by TGF-β1 at 8 hours and 24 hours. Porcine aortic VICs were isolated and cultured with or without TGF-β1 treatment for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. We included 3 biological replicates for each condition. P0 VICs were freshly isolated cells which had not been cultured. P2 VICs were cells that had been passaged 2 times and cultured on plastic plates in low serum media. Some of the P2 VICs were treated with TGF-β1 at 5ng/ml for 8 hours or 24 hours. All the control and TGF-β1-treated conditions were collected at the same time on day 3 of culture.

Project description:Quiescent canine valvular interstitial cells (n=3) and activated valvular interstitial cells (n=3) were grown in 2% FBS. Quiescent cells were treated with either TGFB1 or vehicle for 3 days and activated cells were treated with SB431542 for 4 days. mRNA was extracted using the qiagen RNeasy minikit and assessed by the agilent 2200 bioanalsyser. all samples passed quality control and transcriptomic analysis was performed by edinburgh genomics using the Affymetrix GeneChip™ Canine Gene 1.1ST Array. Results were reported as CEL files and then analysed in Affymetrix expression console (version 1.4.1.46) using the canine 1.1ST library files from Affymetrix. Robust Multi-array Average (RMA) was used to perform gene level normalisation and signal level summarisation.Following this, quality control assessment was performed on the data set. This included assessment of hybridisation (spike in) controls, labelling (poly-A) controls and area under the curve (AUC) control, probe cell intensity boxplots, a signal histogram graph and principle component analysis (PCA) plot. Following this assessment, the datasets were exported with annotation as a text file or as a CHT file. Affymetrix transcriptome analysis console (version 3.1.0.5) was used to perform paired or unpaired one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA).

Project description:This experiment was conducted to test multiple hypotheses: 1) long-wave 365 nm UV light exposure at low fluences does not alter gene expression of hMSC, 2) presence of radical species during polymerization causes DNA damage in hMSC, 3) 3D encapsulation of hMSC causes changes in gene expression of hMSC compared with traditional 2D culture, 4) Differencesin 3D hydrogel networks induce gene expression changes in hMSC The first publication derived from this data set concerns UV exposure and reactive radical species. Light is a non-invasive tool that is widely used in a range of biomedical applications. Techniques such as photopolymerization, photodegradation and photouncaging can be used to alter the chemical and physical properties of biomaterials in the presence of live cells. Long-wave UV light is an easily accessible and commonly used wavelength. Although exposure to low doses of long-wave UV light is generally accepted as biocompatible, most studies only investigate cell viability, ignoring other possible non-toxic effects. Since light exposure could potentially induce phenotypic changes (i.e. if damage repair mechanisms are activated), we examined changes in gene expression of human mesenchymal stem cells exposed to light under various 2D and 3D culture conditions. While exposure to long-wave UV light did not induce any significant changes in gene expression regardless of culture conditions, significant changes were observed due to scaffold fabrication chemistry and between cells plated in 2D versus 3D scaffolds. In total, 24 samples were analyzed. Three different culture conditions were created: 2D(plated), 3DR (encapsulated, radical polymerization), and 3DC (encapsulated, conjugate addition). Each culture condition was further subjected to UV radiation or no UV radiation, for 6 total experimental groups. Each experimental group was performed in triplicate. The 2D experimental groups, with and without UV, were additionally performed twice, once simultaneously with the 3DR samples, and once simultaneously with the 3DC samples. 3DR: encapsulated cells using radical polymerization (APS/TEMED) in a poly(ethylene glycol) (MW=4,000 g/mol) hydrogel in PBS. 3DC: encapsulated cells using conjugate addition with a four-arm PEG-Thiol (pentaerythritol tetrakis(3-mercaptopropionate) (PETMP) ) as the cross-linker in PBS.
