Project description:Dietary gluten proteins (prolamins) from wheat, rye, and barley are the driving forces behind celiac disease, an organ-specific autoimmune disorder that targets both the small intestine and organs outside the gut. In the small intestine, gluten induces inflammation and a typical morphological change of villous atrophy and crypt hyperplasia. Gut lesions improve and heal when gluten is excluded from the diet and the disease relapses when patients consume gluten. Oral immune tolerance towards gluten may be kept for years or decades before breaking tolerance in genetically susceptible individuals. Celiac disease provides a unique opportunity to study autoimmunity and the transition in immune cells as gluten breaks oral tolerance. Seventy-three celiac disease patients on a long-term gluten-free diet ingested a known amount of gluten daily for six weeks. A peripheral blood sample and intestinal biopsies were taken before and six weeks after initiating the gluten challenge. Biopsy results were reported on a continuous numeric scale that measured the villus height to crypt depth ratio to quantify gluten-induced gut mucosal injury. Pooled B and T cells were isolated from whole blood, and RNA was analyzed by DNA microarray looking for changes in peripheral B- and T-cell gene expression that correlated with changes in villus height to crypt depth, as patients maintained or broke oral tolerance in the face of a gluten challenge.

Project description:We aimed to study the molecular impact of short gluten exposure in GFD treated CD patients, as well as identify biological pathways that remain altered in CD regardless of treatment. We used STRT/C1 (single-cell tagged reverse transcription), a 5’-end RNA sequencing method, suitable for quick and cost-efficient gene expression profiling with very low starting RNA, to profile PBMC samples collected from treated CD patients, and gluten challenged patients and healthy controls. Short gluten exposure of just three days was enough to alter the genome-wide PBMC transcriptome of patients. Pathway analysis revealed gluten-induced upregulation of mainly immune response related pathways, both innate and adaptive, in CD patients. We evaluated the perturbation of biological pathways in sample-specific manner. Compared to gluten exposed healthy controls, pathways related to tight junction, olfactory transduction, metabolism of unsaturated fatty acids (such as arachidonic acid), metabolism of amino acids (such as cysteine and glutamate), and microbial infection were constitutively altered in CD patients regardless of treatment, while GFD treatment appears to mostly normalize immune response pathways to “healthy†state. Upstream regulator prediction analysis using differentially expressed genes identified constitutively activated regulators relatively proximal to previously reported CD associated loci, particularly SMARCA4 on 19p13.2 and CSF2 on 5q31. We also found constitutively upregulated genes in CD that are in CD associated genetic loci such as MEF2BNB-MEF2B (BORCS8-MEF2B) on 19p13.11 and CSTB on 21q22.3. RNAseq revealed strong effects of short oral gluten challenge on whole PBMC fraction and constitutively altered pathways in CD PBMC suggesting important factors other than gluten in CD pathogenesis.

Project description:Background & Aims: Traditional celiac disease diagnostics based on histomorphometric evaluations are liable to misinterpretations due to the common technical flaws e.g. wrong orientation of the biopsy and subjective errors are relatively common e.g. interobserver errors. We envisioned that there is a need for molecular histomorphometric tool that obviates these error sources yielding an objective ratio instead. Gene expression determine the state of a tissue, so the changes in expression may be associated with the severity of lesions during CD and can be used to classify it. Methods: 15 CD patients, who have been at least one year on gluten-free diet, were enrolled. All participants were biopsied before and after the gluten challenge (10 weeks, 4 grams of gluten daily). 6 healthy non-CD individuals were included as controls. Biopsies were taken on PAXgene biological fixative and embedded in paraffin and Vh/Cd ratio was assessed. RNA was extracted from the same sections and subjected to genome-wide 3’RNA-sequencing. Sequencing data was used to determine differentially expressed genes and regression model, that successfully describes the mucosal damage, was created and tested in independent material. Results: 167 differentially expressed genes were identified in healthy vs. treated CD comparisons with 117 genes downregulated and 50 genes upregulated. 415 differentially expressed genes were identified in Post gluten challenge to Treated CD comparisons with 195 genes downregulated and 220 genes upregulated. 119 genes whose expression highly correlates to Vh/Cd ratio (Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient, |rho|>0.7) were identified. Gene ontology analyses show that genes involved in cellular response to cytokines, including interferons, were over-represented. Stepwise regression allowed us computationally cut down the number of genes, that describe Vh/Cd ratio changes, to 7 and IELs number to 5. Created models describe 98.9% of observed Vh/Cd and 97.5% of IELs number variabilities; there is a strong correlation between the model’s predicted and observed ratios. Conclusions: Adoption of molecular histomorphometry, with our selected set of target genes, is quantitative and reliable way of estimating gluten-induced mucosal injury and inflammation. By including this technology one can overcome the typical shortcomings common in celiac disease diagnostics based on traditional histomorphometry analyses alone. Likewise, molecular histomorphometry is a promising instrument when incorporated in clinical trials where assessing drug efficacy on mucosal health is paramount. In addition, despite deemed healthy, based on traditional histomorphometric analyses, celiac patients on gluten free diet have significantly distinctive molecular histomorphometric pattern when compared to healthy controls.

Project description:Celiac disease (CeD) is an intestinal immune-mediated disorder caused by gluten ingestion in genetically predisposed subjects. CeD is characterized by villous atrophy, altered intestinal permeability, crypt hyperplasia and innate and adaptive immune response. This study aimed to develop and validate the use of intestinal organoids from celiac patients to study CeD. A repository of organoids from duodenum of non-celiac and celiac patients was generated and characterized accordingly to standard procedures. RNA-seq analysis was employed to study the global gene expression program of CeD (n=3) and non-CeD (n=3) organoids sets. While the three celiac derived organoids shared similar transcriptional signatures the NC samples set appeared more heterogeneous. We found 486 genes differentially expressed between the two groups. Of them, 299 genes were downregulated (FC<2; FDR<0.05) and 187 were upregulated in CeD (FC >2; FDR<0.05). We observed CeD organoids had significantly altered expression of genes associated with barrier function, innate immunity, and stem cell function.

Project description:Celiac disease (CD) is an autoimmune disease in which intestinal inflammation is induced by dietary gluten. The means through which gluten-specific CD4+T cell activation culminates in intraepithelial T cell (T-IEL)–mediated intestinal damage remain unclear. Here, we performed multiplexed single-cell analysis of intestinal and gluten-induced peripheral blood T cells from patients in different CD states and healthy controls. Untreated, active, and potential CD were associated with an enrichment of activated intestinal T cell populations, including CD4+follicular T helper (TFH) cells, regulatory T cells (Tregs), and natural CD8+αβ and γδ T-IELs. Natural CD8+αβ and γδ T-IELs expressing activating natural killer cell receptors (NKRs) exhibited a distinct TCR repertoire in CD and persisted in patients on a gluten-free diet without intestinal inflammation. Our data further show that NKR-expressing cytotoxic cells, which appear to mediate intestinal damage in CD, arise from a distinct NKR-expressing memory population of T-IELs. After gluten ingestion, both αβ and γδ T cell clones from this memory population of T-IELs circulated systemically along with gluten-specific CD4+T cells and assumed a cytotoxic and activating NKR-expressing phenotype. Collectively, these findings suggest that cytotoxic T cells in CD are rapidly mobilized in parallel with gluten-specific CD4+T cells after gluten ingestion.
