Project description:There is no effective pharmacotherapy to prevent the growth and rupture of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA), a leading cause of death. We developed a novel preclinical model showing that the interaction of bona fide risk factors (i.e., cigarette smoke (CS) and hypercholesterolemia) induced AAA formation, rupture, and death. Elastin fragmentation resulted from CS-induced exacerbation of the atherosclerotic process, significant given atherosclerosis is a disease of the inner intimal layer of the artery, with the media remaining largely intact. Importantly, arterial injury was driven by CSF-1-dependent macrophages (Mφ) accumulating within developing atherosclerotic plaques that exhibited tissue degrading proteolytic activity in vivo. Single-cell RNA sequencing further demonstrated conservation of Mφ responses in atherosclerotic plaque from murine and human AAA. Our findings advance understanding of the pathological sequelae of atherosclerosis, establishing plaque Mφ as important mediators of tissue damage and a potential target for prevention of AAA growth and rupture.

Project description:By modeling interaction of cigarette smoke and hypercholesterolemia, we provide experimental evidence that atherosclerotic disease directly contributes to AAA formation and rupture; AAA progression is mediated by inflammatory Mφ residing within associated atherosclerotic plaque.

Project description:The rupture of unstable atherosclerotic plaques, leading to debilitating or fatal thrombotic events, is a major health burden worldwide. Limited understanding as to the molecular drivers of plaque instability and rupture hinders efforts in diagnosis and treatment prior to thrombotic events. Utilising an advanced pre-clinical mouse model (Tandem stenosis (TS) model), which presents human-like unstable atherosclerotic disease, we apply high-end omic methods to characterize the molecular signatures associated with plaque instability in atherosclerotic arteries. Through quantitative proteomic profiling, we depict unique proteome signatures of unstable plaques compared to stable plaques and healthy arteries. Coupled with single-cell RNA-sequencing of leukocytes, we describe the heterodimer complex S100a8/S100a9 as unique to unstable plaque, with neutrophils implicated as the transcriptional drivers of S100a8/a9 expression. We confirm S100a9 expression in human carotid atherosclerotic plaques and we further utilise the TS pre-clinical model to pharmacologically inhibit S100a8/S100a9, resulting in plaque stabilisation. Thus, we establish the TS model as a sophisticated translational tool for the profiling of unstable atherosclerotic plaques and demonstrate that unstable and stable atherosclerosis are highly different disease entities.

Project description:In order to identify potential new biomarkers of atherosclerotic plaque composition we performed a large scale analysis of gene expression patterns in human atherosclerotic lesions. Whole genome expression analysis of 101 peripheral plaques identified a robust gene signature (1514 genes) dominated by inflammatory processes, and cholesterol metabolism and storage genes. Specific pathways enriched in this signature included activation of the Toll-like receptor signaling pathway, T-cell activation, cholesterol efflux, oxidative stress response, inflammatory cytokine production, vasoconstriction and lysosomal activity. Analysis of gene expression in plaque micro-dissected material revealed that the signature is strongly up-regulated in macrophage-rich regions and down-regulated in regions with high smooth muscle cell content. A smaller qPCR biomarker panel and inflammatory composite score (ICS) were developed to facilitate clinical translation of discoveries from gene expression profiling. We found that ICS correlates with histological features related to plaque vulnerability. In addition, ICS is able to separate groups of plaques obtained from symptomatic and asymptomatic patients undergoing carotid endarerectomy. In summary, we identified a robust mRNA biomarker panel associated with histo-pathological as well as clinical hallmarks of vulnerable atherosclerotic plaque. This panel may be used as a diagnostic and prognostic tool in clinical setting to evaluate novel anti-atherosclerotic therapies. 6 human carotid plaques were sectioned in 1 mm thick slices. Alternative slices were used for gene expression profiling in Affymetrix/Merck custom 1.0 arrays (GPL10687), or for immunohistochemistry studies (CD68, Actin)
