Extracellular matrix orchestration of tissue remodelling during chronic colitis

ABSTRACT: Ulcerative colitis is a debilitating and recurrent condition with significant co-morbidities including risk of developing cancer and that is associated with extensive tissue remodeling that is both a consequence and mediator of disease progression. Here, label-free mass spectrometry was used to characterise extracellular matrix remodelling in a murine model of colitis. Unique proteomic profiles of the extracellular matrix landscape distinguished inflamed from matched-normal colon tissue thus identifying pre- and pathological colitic states that were predominantly differentiated by expression of proteoglycans. Network maps derived from this dataset highlighted a central role for matrisomal proteins in epithelial-stromal interactions and identified orchestrating nodes that could be exploited in selection of therapeutic targets.

Project description:Background and Aims: We have shown in several controlled rat and human infection studies that dietary calcium improves intestinal resistance and strengthens the mucosal barrier. Reinforcement of gut barrier function is also relevant for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Therefore, we investigated the effect of supplemental calcium on spontaneous colitis development in HLA-B27 transgenic rats, an experimental animal model of IBD. Methods: HLA-B27 transgenic rats were fed a purified high-fat diet containing either a low or high calcium content (30 and 120 mmol CaHPO4/kg diet, respectively) for almost 7 weeks. Inert chromium ethylenediamine-tetraacetic acid (CrEDTA) was added to the diets to quantify intestinal permeability by measuring urinary CrEDTA excretion. Relative fecal dry-weight was determined to quantify diarrhea. Colonic inflammation was determined histologically, and by measuring mucosal interleukin-1M-NM-2. In addition, colonic mucosal gene expression of individual rats was analyzed, using whole genome microarrays. Interesting results were verified by Q-PCR. Results: The high-calcium diet significantly prevented the increase in intestinal permeability and diarrhea with time in HLA-B27 rats developing colitis as compared to the low-calcium group. The histological colitis score and mucosal interleukin-1M-NM-2 levels were lower in high-calcium fed rats. Supplemental calcium prevented the colitis-induced increase in the expression of extracellular matrix remodeling genes (e.g. matrix metalloproteinases, procollagens and fibronectin), which was confirmed by Q-PCR. Conclusions: Dietary calcium inhibits colitis development in HLA-B27 transgenic rats. Calcium prevents the colitis-related increase in intestinal permeability, diminishes diarrhea, and lowers the inflammatory response in the mucosa, resulting in less extracellular matrix breakdown. Keywords: nutritional intervention Female HLA-B27/M-NM-22-microglobulin transgenic rats on an inbred Fisher 344 background (n=8 in experimental group and n=9 in control group) (Taconic Farms, Inc, Germantown, NY), 8-10 weeks old and with a mean body weight of 128 g at the start of the experiment, were housed individually in metabolic cages. Animals were kept in a temperature- and humidity-controlled environment and in a 12-h light-dark cycle. Rats were fed a purified M-bM-^@M-^XhumanizedM-bM-^@M-^Y Western diet which contained in the control situation (per kg): 200 g acid casein, 326 g corn starch, 174 g glucose, 160 g palm oil, 40 g corn oil, 50 g cellulose and 5.16 g CaHPO4.2H2O (corresponding to 30 mmol calcium/kg diet; Sigma-Aldrich, St Louis, MO). Vitamins and minerals (other than calcium) were added to all diets according to the recommendations of the American Institute of Nutrition 1993.17 The experimental diet contained more calcium (120 mmol calcium/kg diet) at the expense of glucose. All samples were individually labelled and hybridized (Cy5). Equal amounts of Cy3 cRNA of all animals were pooled to serve as standard reference pool.

Project description:Background and aims: Mucosal abnormalities are potentially important in the primary pathogenesis of ulcerative colitis (UC). We investigated the mucosal transcriptomic expression profiles of biopsies from patients with UC and healthy controls (HC), taken from macroscopically non-inflamed tissue from the terminal ileum and three colonic locations with the objective of identifying abnormal molecules that might be involved in disease development. Methods: Whole-genome transcriptional analysis was performed on intestinal biopsies taken from 24 UC, 26 HC and 14 patients with CrohnM-bM-^@M-^Ys disease. Differential gene expression analysis was performed at each tissue location separately and results were then meta-analysed using FisherM-bM-^@M-^Ys method. Significantly differentially expressed genes were validated using qPCR. Gene location within the colon was determined using immunohistochemistry, subcellular fractionation, electron and confocal microscopy. DNA methylation was quantified by pyrosequencing. Results: Seven probes were abnormally expressed throughout the colon in UC patients with Family with sequence similarity member 5 C (FAM5C) being the most significantly underexpressed. Attenuated expression of FAM5C in UC was independent of inflammation, unrelated to phenotype or treatment, and remained low at rebiopsy approximately 23 months later. FAM5C is localised to the brush border of the colonic epithelium and expression is influenced by DNA methylation within its promoter. Conclusion: Genome-wide expression analysis of non-inflamed mucosal biopsies from UC patients identified FAM5C as significantly under-expressed throughout the colon in a major sub-set of patients with UC. Low levels of this gene could predispose to or contribute to the maintenance of the characteristic mucosal inflammation seen in this condition. Total RNA was extracted from the intestinal biopsies taken from macroscopically normal mucosa in the rectum, descending colon, ascending colon and terminal ileum in clinically quiescent Ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease patients and compared to healthy controls. Normalized data for 26,261 probes out of 47,323 only. Criteria for inclusion not specified. The non-normalized matrix contains the complete non-normalized data for all probes.
