Project description:Hypertension is a pathological condition of persistent high blood pressure (BP) of which the underlying mechanisms remain largely obscure. Here, we show that the afferent nerves in perirenal adipose tissue are a regulatory site in triggering and maintaining pathological high BP, without affecting physiological BP. Bilateral perirenal adipose tissue (PRAT) ablation leads to a long-term and effective reduction of BP in spontaneous hypertensive rats (SHR) and high fat and high salt diet fed rats, but has no effect on normal BP in control Wistar-Kyoto or control SD rats. Moreover, gain- and loss-of-function studies show that augmented activities of L1-L2 dorsal root ganglia (DRG) neurons are responsible for hypertension in SHR. Further, L1-L2 DRG neuron transcriptomics uncovers significant changes in neuron development, remodeling, and plasticity. Importantly, calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), a systemic vasodilator, is induced after PRAT ablation. We went on to show that CGRP antagonist blocks the BP-lowering effect of PRAT ablation. CGRP is therefore a key endogenous suppressor of hypertension that is sequestered by anti-hypertensive PRAT in SHRs. Taken together, we identify PRAT afferent nerves as a pathological node of hypertension that sustains high BP via suppressing CGRP, thereby providing a therapeutic target to tackle primary hypertension.

Project description:To investigate the potential function of lncRNAs in Schwann cell (SCs) response to sciatic nerve damage and repair, we extracted the total RNA of crushed sciatic nerves and intact contralateral nerves for RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq). A total of 98 differentially expressed lncRNAs (including 46 up-regulated and 52 down-regulated lncRNAs) and 77 differentially expressed mRNAs (including 55 up-regulated and 22 down-regulated mRNAs) were identified between crushed sciatic nerves and normal control (log 2 FC > 1 and p < 0.001).

Project description:EAE mice were injected with LPC 18:1 and Isobaric C13-His at the optic nerve when they exhibited a clinical score of 2. Visual function was assessed via pattern electroretinogram and optic nerves were harvested 12 days post optic nerve injection. Optic nerves were processed for mass spectrometry to identify the integration of C13-His in newly synthesized proteins.

Project description:Optic nerves are an accessible part of the CNS, providing a source of glia without the presence of neuronal cell bodies. Therefore, an analysis was carried out of gene expression in optic nerves at P4, before myelination begins and at P10, when myelination is very actively proceeding. The goal was to obtain a profile of the changing gene expression that accompanies this transition from unmyelinated CNS nerve to myelinated nerve. Two microarray experiments were combined here. In the first, RNA was prepared from the optic nerves of 75 P4 C57BL/6J mice and 70 P10 C57BL/6J mice. In the second experiment, RNA was prepared from the optic nerves of 55 P4 C57BL/6J mice and two groups of 50 P10 C57Bl/6J mice. In total, there are 2 P4 RNA samples and 3 P10 RNA samples being hybridized to Affymetrix GeneChip 430A for Mouse Expression.

Project description:Abstract: Background and aims: Portal hypertension (PH) is the most frequent and severe clinical syndrome associated to chronic liver disease (CLD), defined by a pathological increase in the hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG). Considering the known mechanobiological effects of hydrostatic pressure and shear stress on endothelial cells, we hypothesized that PH could not only be a consequence of, but significantly influence the phenotype of liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs) during disease progression. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of pathological hydrodynamic pressure on LSECs and to identify endothelial-derived biomarkers of PH. Methods: Primary LSECs were cultured under normal or increased hydrodynamic pressure within a pathophysiological range (1 vs 12 mmHg) using a microfluidic liver-on-a-chip device. RNAseq was used to identify pressure-sensitive genes, which were validated in liver biopsies from two independent cohorts of CLD patients with PH (n=73) vs subjects without PH (n=23). Biomarker discovery was performed in plasma from a third independent cohort of 64 patients (46 with PH vs 18 w/o). Results: Transcriptomic analysis revealed a marked deleterious effect of pathological pressure in LSECs and identified chromobox 7 (CBX7) as a key transcription factor diminished by pressure. Hepatic CBX7 downregulation was validated in patients with PH and significantly correlated with HVPG. MicroRNA 181a-5p was identified as pressure-induced upstream regulator of CBX7. Analysis of two downstream targets of CBX7, ECAD and SPINK1, were found increased in the bloodstream of patients with PH and were highly predictive of PH and clinically significant PH, with a sensitivity of 91.3% and 91.4% respectively. Conclusions: We describe the detrimental effects of increased hydrodynamic pressure on the sinusoidal endothelium, identify CBX7 as a pressure-sensitive transcription factor, and propose that the combination of two of its reported products could be used as plasma biomarkers of PH.

Project description:Previous studies indicated that activation of glial cells and inflammatory responses are triggering factors of glaucomatous optic neuropathy. In particular, neurotoxic reactive astrocytes have been found to play a significant role in retinal ganglion cell damage. Furthermore, research showed that activation of glial cells is not dependent on retinal ganglion cell injury, but rather a direct response to pathological elevation of intraocular pressure. However, the molecular mechanism by which elevated intraocular pressure triggers glial activation through mechanical forces remains unknown. By spatial transcriptome sequencing, our study revealed that the neurotoxic astrocyte would rapidly be reactivated in the optic nerve head under elevated intraocular pressure in vivo.

Project description:<p>The central nervous system has been implicated in the age-induced reduction in adipose tissue lipolysis. SLC7A14 is a lysosomal membrane protein highly expressed in the brain. Herein, we investigated the possible role of hypothalamic SLC7A14 in the age-induced lipolysis reduction. In this study, we demonstrated the expression of SLC7A14 was reduced in proopiomelanocortin (POMC) neurons of aged mice. Overexpression of SLC7A14 in POMC neurons alleviated the age-induced reduction in white adipose tissue (WAT) lipolysis, whereas SLC7A14 deletion mimicked the age-induced lipolysis impairment. Moreover, POMC SLC7A14 regulated WAT lipolysis independently of sympathetic nerves in WAT. Metabolomics analysis revealed that POMC SLC7A14 increased the primary bile acid taurochenodeoxycholic acid (TCDCA) content, which mediated the SLC7A14 knockout- or age-induced WAT lipolysis impairment. Furthermore, SLC7A14-increased TCDCA content is dependent on intestinal apical sodium-dependent bile acid transporter (ASBT), which is regulated by intestinal sympathetic afferent nerves. Finally, SLC7A14 regulated the intestinal sympathetic afferent nerves by inhibiting mTORC1 signaling through inhibiting TSC1 phosphorylation. Collectively, our study suggests the function for central SLC7A14 and an upstream mechanism for the mTORC1 signaling pathway. Moreover, our data provides insights into the brain-gut-adipose tissue crosstalk in age-induced lipolysis impairment.</p>
