Project description:Right heart failure results from advanced pulmonary hypertension (PH) and has a poor prognosis. There are few available treatments for right heart failure. Pulmonary artery remodeling, including changes in pulmonary artery endothelial cells to endothelial-mesenchymal cells, and aberrant fibroblast and pulmonary artery smooth muscle cell (PASMC) proliferation, are characteristics of the pathophysiological process of PH. As a result, the clinical situation requires novel PH diagnostic and treatment targets.

Project description:Right ventricular (RV) failure is the major determinant of outcome in pulmonary hypertension (PH). Calves exposed to 2-wks environmental hypoxia develop severe PH and unlike rodents, chronic hypoxia-induced PH in this species can lead to right heart failure. We therefore sought to examine the molecular and structural changes in the RV in calves with hypoxia-induced PH, hypothesizing that we could identify mechanisms underlying compensated physiological function in the face of developing severe PH. Calves were exposed to 14d of hypobaric hypoxia (PB=430 mm Hg, equivalent to 4570m elevation, n=29) or ambient normoxia (1525m, n=25). Cardiopulmonary function was evaluated by right heart catheterization and pressure volume loops. Molecular and cellular determinants of RV remodeling were analyzed by cDNA microarrays, RealTime PCR, proteomics and immunochemistry. Hypoxic exposure induced robust PH, with increased RV contractile performance and preserved cardiac output, yet evidence of dysregulated RV-pulmonary artery mechanical coupling consistent with advanced PH. Analysis of gene expression revealed cellular processes associated with structural remodeling, cell signaling, and survival. We further identified specific clusters of gene expression associated with (i) hypertrophic gene expression and pro-survival mechanotransduction through YAP-TAZ signaling, (ii) ECM remodeling, (iii) inflammatory cell activation and (iv) angiogenesis. A potential transcriptomic signature of cardiac fibroblasts in RV remodeling was detected. Proteomic and immunohistochemical analysis confirmed RV myocyte hypertrophy, together with localization of ECM remodeling, inflammatory cell activation, and endothelial cell proliferation within the RV interstitium. In conclusion, hypoxia and hemodynamic load initiate coordinated processes of protective and compensatory RV remodeling to withstand the progression of PH.

Project description:Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is an incurable right heart failure disease. Parathyroid hormone (PTH) is secreted from the parathyroid gland and plays a crucial role in calcium homeostasis. PTH also acts on the cardiovascular system and affects cardiovascular prognosis. We assessed whether the regulation of PTH affected PH in a hypoxia (Hx)-induced PH mouse model. PTH treatment exacerbated right ventricular hypertrophy and right ventricular systolic pressure in Hx mice. Our data showed how is PTH effected for PH model murine lung.

Project description:Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a progressive pulmonary vascular disease that culminates in right heart failure. Vascular pathology in PH is characterized by pulmonary vasoconstriction and progressive vascular remodeling processes that affects all layers of the vascular wall (intima, media and adventitia).

Project description:Pulmonary hypertension worsens outcome in left heart disease. Stiffening of the pulmonary artery may drive this pathology by increasing right ventricular dysfunction and lung vascular remodeling. We showed that pulmonary arteries from patients with left heart disease are characterized by increased stiffness that correlates with impaired pulmonary hemodynamics. Pulmonary arteries in left heart disease patients with pulmonary hypertension were characterized by degradation of elastic fibers paralleled by an accumulation of fibrillar collagens. We utilized RNA sequencing to identify differentially expressed genes regulating extracellular matrix remodeling in pulmonary arteries of left heart disease patients with or without pulmonary hypertension, in comparison to healthy-heart donor controls. As such we identified that transcriptional deregulation of extracellular matrix constituents and their regulators precedes clinical pulmonary hypertension, and therefore might be a pathomechanism that drives pulmonary arterial remodeling and stiffening in left heart disease.

Project description:Arterial pulmonary hypertension is a rare disease, with little knowledge regarding its etiology, and high mortality. Development of right and later on also left ventricular heart insufficiency, secondary to pulmonary hypertension, is a negative predictive factor. Genetic and molecular processes underlying left heart ventricle remodeling over the course of pulmonary hypertension remain unknown. In particular, there is no knowledge regarding the mechanisms of left heart ventricle atrophy which was completely avoided by researchers until recently.The aim of this study was to assess changes in protein abundance in left and right heart ventricle free wall of rats in monocrotaline model of PAH.

Project description:Trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO), a metabolite derived from intestine microbial flora, enhances vascular inflammation in a variety of cardiovascular disease, and the bacterial communities associated with trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) metabolism is higher in pulmonary hypertension (PH) patients. The effects of TMAO on PH, however, has not been elucidated. In the present study, we found that circulating TMAO is elevated in intermediate to high-risk PH patients when compared to healthy control or low-risk PH patients. In monocrotaline-induced rat PH models, circulating TMAO is elevated; and reduction of TMAO using 3,3-dimethyl-1-butanol (DMB) significantly decreased right ventricle systolic pressure, pulmonary vascular muscularization in both monocrotaline-induced rat PH and hypoxia induced mice PH models. RNA sequencing of rat lungs on DMB revealed significant suppression of pathways involved in cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, and cytokine and chemokine signaling. Protein-protein interaction analysis of the differentially expressed transcripts regulated by DMB showed 5 hub genes with a strong connectivity of proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines including Kng1, Cxcl1, Cxcl2, CxcL6 and Il6. In vivo, TMAO significantly increased the expression of Kng1, Cxcl1, Cxcl2, CxcL6 and Il6 in bone marrow derived macrophage. And TMAO-treated conditioned medium from macrophage increased the proliferation and migration of pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells; but TMAO treatment did not change the proliferation or migration of pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells. In conclusion, our study demonstrates that TMAO is increased in severe PH, and the reduction of TMAO using DMB reduces pulmonary vascular muscularization and alleviates PH via suppressing the macrophage production of chemokines and cytokines.

Project description:Rationale: Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a devastating disease characterized by obliterative vascular remodeling and persistent increase of vascular resistance, leading to right heart failure and premature death. Understanding the cellular and molecular mechanisms will help develop novel therapeutic approaches for PAH patients. Objectives: To determine whether upregulation of fatty-acid binding protein 4 and 5 (FABP4/5) is critical in pathogenesis of PAH. Methods: FABP4/5 expression was examined in pulmonary arterial endothelial cells (PAECs) and lung tissues from patients with idiopathic PAH and pulmonary hypertension (PH) rat models. Plasma proteome analysis was performed in human PAH samples. Echocardiography, hemodynamics, histology, and immunostaining were performed to evaluate the lung and heart PH phenotypes in Egln1Tie2Cre (CKO) mice and Egln1Tie2Cre/Fabp4-5-/- (TKO) mice. Measurement and Main Results: Both FABP4 and FABP5 were highly induced in ECs of CKO mice and PAECs from IPAH patients, and in whole lungs of PH rats. Plasma levels of FABP4/5 were upregulated in IPAH patients and directly correlated with severity of hemodynamics and biochemical parameters. Genetic deletion of both Fabp4 and 5 in CKO mice caused a reduction of right ventricular systolic pressure (RVSP) and RV hypertrophy, attenuated pulmonary vascular remodeling and prevented the right heart failure. Fabp4/5 deletion also normalized EC glycolysis, reduced ROS and HIF-2a expression, and decreased aberrant EC proliferation in CKO lungs. Conclusions: PH causes aberrant expression of FABP4/5 in pulmonary ECs which leads to enhanced EC glycolysis and hyperproliferation, contributing to the accumulation of arterial ECs and vascular remodeling and exacerbating the disease.

Project description:Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a progressive pulmonary vascular disease that culminates in right heart failure. Vascular pathology in PH is characterized by pulmonary vasoconstriction and progressive vascular remodeling processes that affects all layers of the vascular wall (intima, media and adventitia). Our objective was to profile and analyze the differential gene expression signatures between the cells isolated from normal and idiopathic PAH patients. We generated vascular cell-specific transcriptome profiles from the adventitial fibroblasts (PAAF) isolated ex vivo from the dissected human pulmonary arteries of normal donor and PAH lungs using paired-end RNA-sequencing.
