Project description:Lung disease due to non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) is rising in incidence. While both 2D cell culture and animal models exist for NTM infections, a major knowledge gap is the early responses of human alveolar and innate immune cells to NTM within the human lung microenvironment. Here we describe development of a humanized, 3D, alveolus lung-on-a-chip (ALoC) model of Mycobacterium fortuitum infection that incorporates only primary human cells such as pulmonary vascular endothelial cells in a vascular channel, and type I and II alveolar cells and monocyte-derived macrophages in an alveolar channel along an air-liquid interface. M. fortuitum introduced into the alveolar channel primarily infected macrophages, with rare bacteria inside alveolar cells. Bulk-RNA sequencing of infected chips revealed marked upregulation of transcripts for cytokines, chemokines and secreted protease inhibitors (SERPINs). Our results demonstrate how a humanized ALoC system can identify critical early immune and epithelial responses to M. fortuitum infection. We envision potential application of the ALoC to other NTM and for studies of new antibiotics

Project description:Biofilm formation by the environmental and clinical contaminant Mycobacterium fortuitum causes economic losses and serious threat to human health, as a consequence of its increasing contribution to nosocomial infections. There are no reports that elucidate physiological adaptations taking place during its planktonic to biofilm transition. The present study was hence carried out considering the global proteome of the mycobacterium. This is the first description of a global proteomic investigation into M. fortuitum biofilm. Scrutiny of biological functions in the two states provided insights into the phenotypic switch, and fundamental pathways associated with M. fortuitum pathobiology.

Project description:Acute exposure to high-dose gamma radiation can result in radiation-induced lung injury (RILI), characterized by acute pneumonitis and subsequent lung fibrosis. A microfluidic organ-on-a-chip lined by human lung alveolar epithelium interfaced with pulmonary endothelium (Lung Alveolus Chip) is used to model acute, early stage RILI in vitro. Both lung epithelium and endothelium exhibit DNA damage, cellular hypertrophy, upregulation of inflammatory cytokines, and loss of barrier function within 6h of radiation exposure, and greater damage is observed in the endothelium. The alveolus chips are exposed to radiation injury at 16 Gy and shows effects that resemble the human lung greater than animal preclinical models. The Alveolus Chip is also used to evaluate the potential ability of two drugs to suppress the effects of acute RILI. These data demonstrate that the Lung Alveolus Chip provides a human relevant alternative approach for studying the molecular basis of acute RILI towards screening radiation countermeasure therapeutics.

Project description:Acute exposure to high-dose gamma radiation often results in radiation-induced lung injury (RILI), characterized by acute pneumonitis and subsequent lung fibrosis. A microfluidic organ-on-a-chip device consisting of human lung alveolar epithelium and pulmonary endothelium (Lung Alveolus Chip) is used to recapitulate acute, early stage RILI in vitro. This RNA-seq data captures that both the lung epithelium and endothelium in this model capture key hallmarks of this disease particularly, DNA damage, cellular hypertrophy, upregulation of inflammatory cytokines, and loss of barrier function within 6h of radiation exposure. The data also suggests that radiation affects the alveolar endothelium more significantly than the epithelium. The alveolus chips are exposed to radiation injury at 16 Gy and shows effects that resemble the human lung greater than animal preclinical models. These data demonstrate that the Lung Alveolus Chip provides a human relevant alternative approach for studying the molecular basis of acute RILI towards screening radiation countermeasure therapeutics.

Project description:Detection of species-specific proteotypic peptides for accurate and easy characterization of infectious non-tuberculous mycobacteria such as Mycobacterium fortuitum is essential. Therefore, we carried out an in-depth global proteomic experiment using M. fortuitum ATCC 6841 strain followed by a proteome database search and spectral library generation. The lysate was subjected to in-solution proteomic sample preparation and fractionated using an offline C18 StageTip. Each fraction was acquired in technical triplicates using a 180 min data-dependent acquisition (DDA) method in Orbitrap Fusion Tribrid (Thermo Scientific) mass spectrometer. The resulting raw DDA data were searched against the M. fortuitum proteome database using Proteome Discoverer and FragPipe. The resulting peptide spectrum matches were converted into a spectral library using BiblioSpec.

Project description:Mechanical forces associated with breathing play fundamental role in lung development and disease but the molecular pathways remain largely unknown. Here, we used a mechanically actuatable Human Lung Alveolus Chip that recapitulates human lung alveolar type I and type II cell differentiation, alveolar-capillary interface formation, and genome-wide gene expression profiles characteristic of the distal lung to investigate the role of physical forces associated with cyclic breathing motions in lung innate immune responses to viral infection. When the mechanically active Alveolus Chips are infected with influenza H3N2 virus, a cascade of host responses is elicited on-chip, including increased production of cytokines and expression of inflammation-associated genes in pulmonary epithelial and endothelial cells, resulting in enhanced recruitment of circulating immune cells as occurs during viral infection in vivo. Surprisingly, studies carried out in parallel with static chips revealed that physiological breathing motions suppress viral replication by activating protective innate immune responses in epithelial and endothelial cells. This is mediated at least in part through upregulation of S100 calcium-binding protein A7 (S100A7), which binds to the Receptor for Advanced Glycation End Products (RAGE), an inflammatory mediator that is most highly expressed in the lung alveolus in vivo. This mechano-immunological control mechanism is further supported by the finding that existing RAGE inhibitor drugs can suppress production of inflammatory cytokines in response to influenza virus infection in this model. S100A7-RAGE interactions and modulation of mechanical ventilation parameters could therefore serve as new targets for therapeutic intervention in patients infected with influenza and other potential pandemic viruses that cause life-threatening lung inflammation.
