Project description:Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is a common multifactorial disease in a heterogeneous population of women. Due to this heterogeneity, the underlying molecular mechanisms contributing to the pathogenesis of POP are still unclear. We sought to identify dysregulated pathways by comparing gene expression profiles of prolapsed and non- prolapsed anterior vaginal wall tissue within the same patient. Biopsies were collected from 12 premenopausal women undergoing prolapse surgery (cystocele POP-Q stage ≥ 2). A full thickness anterior vaginal wall sample was taken from the POP site during anterior colporrhaphy. An additional sample was taken from the non-prolapsed apex of the anterior vaginal cuff. Micro-array analysis was performed using whole genome GE 4x44K microarrays. Beside a significance analysis of micro-array (SAM), also a visual cluster analysis was performed. 12 women with POP: 12 biopsies anterior vaginal wall (POP site) versus 12 biopies precervical anterior vaginal wall ( non POP site)

Project description:Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) affects a large proportion of adult women. With the increase in global population ageing, the prevalence of POP is expected to increase in upcoming decades, which will impose a substantial medical burden. Therefore, suitable therapeutical target is important. However, due to the pathogenesis of POP is still unclear, it leads to the failure of POP repair. Herein, we identified changes in ncRNA, and mRNAs in the anterior vaginal wall and uterosacral ligament in patients with POP, providing new insights into the pathogenesis of POP and new targets for treatment.

Project description:Anterior vaginal prolapse, as the most common form of POP, severely affect women’s physical and mental health. However, the cellular profiles of vaginal wall and molecular mechanism in pathological process of POP remain unclear. Here, we built the first single-cell transcriptomic atlas of prolapsed vaginal wall. We further revealed prolapse induced aberrant gene expression and transcriptional regulatory networks in cell-type specific manner in POP. Besides extracellular matrix dysregulation, dysfunction of immune cells and immune response were involved with prolapse occur. Computational prediction demonstrated that the abnormal cell-cell communication patterns present among fibroblasts, smooth muscle cells and macrophages in POP, with interplay in extracellular matrix remodeling and regulation of immune reaction. Taken together, our work provides the first comprehensive single-cell transcriptomic atlas for deciphering gene expression landscapes of heterogeneous cell types in prolapsed anterior vaginal wall, broadens our understanding of cell identities and cell-type-specific gene changes in POP and demonstrated the vital role of enhanced interplay between non-immune cells and immune cells in prolapsed vaginal wall.

Project description:An appropriate model is urgently required for pathological mechanism investigation of pelvic organ prolapse and the development of new therapeutic strategies. It is generally thought that damage to the vagina and its supportive tissues due to vaginal birth, menopause, and so on can result in loss of vaginal support and prolapse of the pelvic organs. Currently, ovariectomy and simulated vaginal delivery in animal models are applied to mimic the status of menopause and induce vaginal injury, however, the complex biochemical and biomechanical changes induced by vaginal delivery and prolapse is difficultly achieved by these methods. The rhesus macaque shares many features similarly to women, such as pelvic floor anatomy and parturition, and makes an excellent experimental model for the study of prolapse. Besides, the rhesus macaque develops prolapse spontaneously. Thus, there has great value to investigate the changes of spontaneous prolapse and make them animal models for the study of prolapse. In this study, we will assess the histomorphology, biochemical property and biomechanical property of prolapsed vagina. And then, cell atlas of normal and prolapsed vagina will be constructed by single-cell transcriptome sequencing. We will reveal the cell type specific molecular mechanisms. This study will improve the understanding of spontaneous prolapse in the rhesus macaque and provide fundamental data for the application of spontaneous prolapse as animal models to study POP.

Project description:Long-term menopause is considered to be one of the risk factors for pelvic organ prolapse. In the case of long-term menopause, the supporting function of the pelvic floor tissue is weakened, but the effect on the vaginal wall tissue is not fully elaborated. This study intends to use transcriptomics to further clarify.

Project description:Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is a group of diseases caused by extracellular matrix (ECM) degradation in the pelvic supportive tissues. Cysteine and serine rich nuclear protein 1 (CSRNP1) is involved in cell proliferation and survival regulation, and reportedly facilitates collagen breakdown in human chondrocytes. We here uncovered CSRNP1 as a key driver on collagen degradation in human-derived vaginal fibroblasts. Apoptosis of POP patient-derived vaginal fibroblasts was suppressed after knocking down CSRNP1. Silencing of CSRNP1 inhibited hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-triggered apoptosis, ROS generation and collagen loss in normal vaginal fibroblasts. In line with this, CSRNP1 overexpression led to proliferation inhibition, apoptosis and collagen degradation in normal subject-derived vaginal fibroblasts. Silencing of CSRNP1 also reduced the expression of cell senescence markers p21 and γ-H2Ax (the histone H2Ax phosphorylated at Ser139), as well as curbed collagen breakdown in normal vaginal fibroblasts caused by a DNA damage agent etoposide. Transcriptomic analysis showed that differentially expressed genes affected by CSRNP1 overexpression in normal vaginal fibroblasts were mainly enriched in the Wnt signaling pathway, which was crucial for the onset and progression of POP. Silencing of CSRNP1 upregulated the expression of nuclear β-catenin and induced nuclear translocation of β-catenin in H2O2-induced normal vaginal fibroblast. Furthermore, collagen deposition caused by CSRNP1 knockdown was curbed after treatment with a Wnt pathway inhibitor DKK1. Our study indicates that the CSRNP1 may be involved in POP progression through the Wnt signaling, which provides a potential therapeutic strategy for POP.

Project description:Purpose: Damage to the uterosacral ligaments is an important contributor to uterine and vaginal prolapse. The aim of this study was to identify differentially expressed proteins in the uterosacral ligaments of women with and without pelvic organ prolapse and analyze their relationships to cellular mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of pelvic organ prolapse. Experimental Design: Uterosacral ligament connective tissue from four patients with pelvic organ prolapse and four control women underwent iTRAQ analysis followed by Ingenuity Pathway Analysis of differentially expressed proteins. Differentially expressed proteins were valideated using western blot analysis. Results: A total of 1789 unique protein sequences were identified in the uterosacral ligament connective tissues. 88 proteins had expression levels that were significantly different between prolapse and control groups (≥1.2-fold). Ingenuity pathway analysis demonstrated 14 differentially expressed proteins that were associated with "Connective Tissue Function". Among them, fibromodulin(FMOD), Collagen alpha-1 (XIV) chain(COL14A1), Calponin-1 (CNN-1), Tenascin (TNC), and Galectin-1(LGALS1 appeared most likely to play a role in the etiology of pelvic organ prolapse. Conclusions and clinical relevence: We identified at least 6 proteins not previously associated with the pathogenesis of pelvic organ prolapse with biologic functions that suggest a plausible relationship to the disorder. These results may be helpful for furthering our understanding of the pathophysiological mechanisms of pelvic organ prolapse.
