Project description:We hypothesize that gene expression in the CS-exposed lungs of this strain (A/J) of mice would be able to give clues about the molecular mechanism of emphysema development, thus contributing to this phenotype. More specifically, although imbalance in oxidants/antioxidants and proteinase/antiproteinase pathways drives the pathogenesis of COPD, the molecular mechanisms involved in the development of emphysema are poorly understood. In order to test this hypothesis at the gene expression level, we utilized microarray analysis to examine transcriptional differences between CS-exposed and Air-exposed groups of mice. Experiment Overall Design: This study utilizes microarray analysis to test these hypotheses. Three sets of lungs were harvested from both groups at each time point (A/J - CS exposed OR Air-exposed: 1 day, 8 days, 1.5 mos, and 6 mos). RNA was isolated and used for global gene expression profiling (Affymetrix Mouse 430 2.0 array). Statistically significant gene expression was determined as a minimum 6 counts of 9 pairwise comparisons, minimum 1.5-fold change, and p < 0.05.

Project description:The lymphatic vasculature is critical for lung function, but defects in lymphatic functionin the pathogenesis of lung disease is understudied. To further assess the contribution of lymphatics to the pathogenesis of lung emphysema we used a mouse model of cigarette smoke (CS)-induced emphysema, and analyzed lung lymphatics using immunohistochemistry, functional assays, and confocal microscopy. Additionally, we further harvested thoracic lymph from CS-exposed mice for proteomic analysis. In this presented section of our research, we highlight the label free quantitative DIA proteomics approaches used to profile the proteomic and peptidomics changes in the lymph from cigarette smoke (CS)-mice as compared with the lymph proteome from mice exposed to room air. Label free quantitative DIA proteomics analysis of lymph confirmed upregulation of coagulation and inflammatory pathways in the lymphatics of CS-exposed mice compared to control mice.

Project description:Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by a progressive decline in lung function, caused by exposure to exogenous particles, mainly cigarette smoke (CS). COPD pathogenesis is initiated and perpetuated by an abnormal CS-induced inflammatory response of the lungs, involving both innate and adaptive immunity. Specifically, B cells organized in iBALT structures, as well as macrophages, accumulate in the lungs and contribute to CS-induced emphysema, but the mechanisms thereof remain unclear. Here, we demonstrate that B cell-deficient mice are significantly protected against CS-induced emphysema. Chronic CS exposure led to increased lung compliance, total lung capacity, and mean linear chord length in WT, but not B cell-deficient mice, associated with an increased size and number of iBALT structures. The increased accumulation of macrophages around iBALT and in emphysematous alveolar areas in CS-exposed WT mice coincided with upregulated MMP12 expression. In vitro co-culture experiments using B cells and macrophages demonstrated that B cell-derived IL-10 drives macrophage activation and MMP12 upregulation. In summary, B cell function in iBALT formation in CS-induced emphysema provides a new innovative mechanism, which could be explored as a target for therapeutic intervention in COPD patients.

Project description:Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a highly prevalent respiratory disease characterized by airflow limitation and chronic inflammation. MiR-155 is described as an ancient regulator of the immune system. Our objective was to establish a role for miR-155 in cigarette smoke (CS)-induced inflammation and COPD. We demonstrate increased miR-155 expression by RT-qPCR in lung tissue of smokers without airflow limitation and patients with COPD compared to never smokers and in lung tissue and alveolar macrophages of CS-exposed mice compared to air-exposed mice. In addition, we exposed wild type and miR-155 deficient mice to CS and show an attenuated inflammatory profile in the latter. Alveolar macrophages were sorted by FACS from the different experimental groups and their gene expression profile was analyzed by RNA sequencing. This analysis revealed increased expression of miR-155 targets (including the NF-κB inhibitor rassf6) and an attenuation of the CS-induced increase in inflammation-related genes in miR-155 deficient mice. Finally, intranasal instillation of a specific miR-155 inhibitor significantly attenuated the CS-induced pulmonary inflammation in mice. In conclusion, we highlight a role for miR-155 in CS-induced inflammation and the pathogenesis of COPD, implicating miR-155 as a new therapeutic target in COPD.

Project description:Although cigarette smoke (CS) is the primary risk factor for COPD, the underlying molecular mechanisms for the significant variability in developing COPD in response to CS are incompletely understood. We performed lung gene expression profiling of two different wild-type murine strains (C57BL/6J, NZW/LacJ) and two genetic models with mutations in COPD GWAS genes (HHIP, FAM13A) after 6 months of chronic CS exposure and compared the results to human COPD lung tissues. We identified gene response patterns that correlate with severity of emphysema in mouse and human lungs. Xenobiotic metabolism and Nrf2-mediated oxidative stress response were commonly regulated molecular response patterns across C57BL/6J, Hhip +/- and Fam13a -/- murine models upon chronic CS exposure and human COPD subjects. The CS resistant Fam13a -/- mouse and NZW/LacJ strain revealed an opposite pattern of gene expression response, suggesting distinct molecular pathways for resistance against emphysema. There were few genes commonly modulated between mouse and humans. Our study suggests gene expression responses to CS may be largely species and model dependent, yet shared pathways could provide biologically significant insights underlying individual susceptibility to CS

Project description:BACKGROUND: The HHIP gene, encoding Hedgehog interacting protein, has been implicated in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) by genome-wide association studies (GWAS), and our subsequent studies identified a functional upstream genetic variant that decreased HHIP transcription. However, little is known about how HHIP contributes to COPD pathogenesis. METHODS: Here, we exposed Hhip haploinsufficient mice (Hhip+/-) to cigarette smoke (CS) for 6 months to model the biological consequences caused by CS in human COPD risk-allele carriers at the HHIP locus. Gene expression profiling in murine lungs was performed followed by an integrative network inference analysis, PANDA (Passing Attributes between Networks for Data Assimilation) analysis. RESULTS: We detected more severe airspace enlargement in Hhip+/- mice vs. wild-type littermates (Hhip+/+) exposed to CS. Gene expression profiling in murine lungs suggested enhanced lymphocyte activation pathways in CS-exposed Hhip+/- vs. Hhip+/+ mice, which was supported by increased numbers of lymphoid aggregates and enhanced activation of CD8+ T cells after CS-exposure in the lungs of Hhip+/- mice compared to Hhip+/+ mice. Mechanistically, results from PANDA network analysis suggested a rewired and dampened Klf4 signaling network in Hhip+/- mice after CS exposure. CONCLUSIONS: In summary, HHIP haploinsufficiency exaggerated CS-induced airspace enlargement, which models CS-induced emphysema in human smokers carrying COPD risk alleles at the HHIP locus. Network modeling suggested rewired lymphocyte activation signaling circuits in the HHIP haploinsufficiency state.

Project description:Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is an inflammatory airway disease characterized by emphysema and chronic bronchitis and a leading cause of mortality worldwide. COPD is commonly associated with several comorbid diseases which contribute to worse patient outcomes. Cigarette smoke (CS) is the most prominent risk factor for COPD development and progression and is known to be detrimental to numerous effector functions of lung resident immune cells, including phagocytosis and cytokine production. Methods: C57BL/6 mice were exposed to 8 weeks of CS as an experimental model of COPD. Airspace macrophages (AMs) were isolated from CS-exposed and RA mice and bulk RNA-Seq performed. The functional role of differentially expressed genes was assessed through gene ontology analyses. Ingenuity Pathway Analysis was used to determine the activation states of canonical pathways and upstream regulators enriched in differentially expressed genes in AMs. Results: CS induced decreased expression of genes involved in pathogen response, phagosome formation, and immune cell trafficking in AMs. Conclusions: CS exposure can induce transcriptomic remodelling in AMs. Our study highlights the ability of CS exposure to affect immune cell populations distal to the lung and warrants further investigation into the functional effects of these changes and the ensuing role in driving multimorbid disease.

Total RNA was obtained from the lung tissue of C57BL/6J mice exposed to cigarette smoke (CS) or filtered air (air) for 6 months. Six mice from each of four groups with different genotypes (Hhip+/+ or Hhip+/-) and treatments (air or CS) were randomly chosen for gene expression profiling

Project description:Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) 10 is essential for lung morphogenesis and polymorphisms in the Fgf10 region are linked with higher susceptibility towards COPD in human patients. We found that FGF10 signaling is impaired in lung septal wall compartment from COPD patients. Mice with impaired FGF10 signaling (Fgf10+/-) were more prone to develop cigarette smoke (CS)-induced emphysema and pulmonary hypertension (PH). Furthermore, FGF10 overexpression could successfully reverse cigarette smoke-induced emphysema and PH in mice.
