Project description:microRNA expression profile in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) after inducing calcification
| PRJNA540465 | ENA
Project description:Vascular calcification is a common and life-threatening complication in patients with chronic kidney disease, in which osteogenic differentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) plays an essential role. Paraspeckle protein NONO is a multifunctional protein involved in many nuclear biological processes but its role in vascular calcification and osteogenic differentiation of VSMCs remains unclear.By RNA sequencing analysis in primary mouse VSMCs with or without NONO knockout, we observed significant changes of genes important in regulating vascular function and osteogenic differentiation of VSMCs.

Project description:Vascular calcification often occurs with osteoporosis, a contradictory association called “calcification paradox”. We find that extracellular vesicles (EVs) released from aged bone matrix (AB-EVs) during bone resorption favor adipogenesis rather than osteogenesis of BMSCs and augment calcification of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). Intravenous or intramedullary injection of AB-EVs promotes bone-fat imbalance and exacerbates Vitamin D3 (VD3)-induced vascular calcification in young or old mice. To explore the involvement of miRNAs in the AB-EVs-induced promotion of adipocyte formation and vascular calcification, the Agilent miRNA array was conducted to compare the miRNA expression profiles in AB-EVs and YB-EVs from mouse bone specimens. Our study uncovers the role of AB-EVs as a messenger for calcification paradox by transferring functional miRNAs.

Project description:Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) are derived from distinct embryonic origins. Vessels originating from differing smooth muscle cell populations have distinct vascular and pathological properties of calcification, atherosclerosis, and structural defects such as aneurysm and coarctation. We hypothesized that domains within a vessel vary in phenotype based on embryonic origin. We used microarrays to detail the expression differences in vasculature of different embryonic origin. Mouse tissues were selected from different vascular compartments for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. We sought to identify embryonic origin-specific expression profiles.

Project description:Young and Aged osteocytes in bone matrix secreted plenty of extracellular vesicles (EVs) with different functions. We found that EVs released from aged bone matrix (AB-EVs) during bone resorption favor adipogenesis rather than osteogenesis of BMSCs and augment calcification of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs).

Project description:Hyperglycemia accelerates calcification of atherosclerotic plaques in diabetic patients, and the prolonged accumulation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) induced by hyperglycemia may be closely related to the pathogenesis of aortic calcification. However, the mechanisms underlying this association remain unclear. In the current study, we investigated the role of vascular smooth muscle cell nuclear factor 90/110 (NF90/110) in mediating AGEs accumulation and accelerating diabetic atherosclerotic calcification. Using vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), human samples, and mouse models, we found that hyperglycemia-mediated AGEs markedly increased VSMC NF90/110 activation both in human and mouse atherosclerotic calcified tissues with diabetes. Silencing of NF90/110 in vitro and genetic deletion of VSMC NF90/110 in mice decreased obviously AGEs-induced arteriosclerotic calcification. Mechanistically, AGEs increased the activity of NF90, which then enhanced ubiquitination and degradation of AGE receptor 1 (AGER1) by stabilizing the mRNA of E3 ubiquitin ligase, F-box, and WD repeat domain 7 (FBXW7), thus causing the accumulation of more AGEs. Furthermore, AGEs accumulation accelerated diabetic atherosclerotic calcification by inducing VSMC phenotypic changes to osteoblast-like cells, apoptosis, and matrix vesicle release. Collectively, our study demonstrated the effects of VSMC NF90 in mediating the metabolic imbalance of AGEs to accelerate diabetic arteriosclerotic calcification. These novel findings elucidate a pivotal mechanism underlying AGE-induced diabetic atherosclerotic calcification and provide a framework for potential interventions against diabetic vascular complications.

Project description:Background: Ectopic vascular calcifications represent a major clinical problem associated with cardiovascular disease and mortality. However, the mechanisms underlying pathological vascular calcifications are largely unknown hampering the development of therapies to tackle this life threatening medical condition. Results: In order to gain insight into the genes and mechanisms driving this pathological calcification process we analyzed the transcriptional profile of calcifying vascular smooth muscle cells (C-VSMCs). These profiles were compared to differentiating osteoblasts, cells that constitute their physiological calcification counterparts in the body. Overall the transcriptional program of C-VSMC and osteoblasts did not overlap. Several genes, some of them relevant for bone formation, were distinctly modulated by C-VSMCs which did not necessarily lose their smooth muscle cell markers while calcifying. Bioinformatics gene clustering and correlation analysis disclosed limited bone-related mechanisms being shared by two cell types. Extracellular matrix (ECM) and biomineralization genes represented common denominators between pathological vascular and physiological bone calcifications. These genes constitute the strongest link between these cells and represent potential drivers for their shared end-point phenotype. Conclusions: the analyses support the hypothesis that VSMC trans-differentiate into C-VSMCs keeping their own identity while using mechanisms that osteoblasts use to mineralize. The data provide novel insights into groups of genes and biological processes shared in MSC and VSMC osteogenic differentiation. The distinct gene regulation between C-VSMC and osteoblasts might hold clues to find cell-specific pathway modulations, opening the possibility to tackle undesired vascular calcifications without disturbing physiologic bone formation and vice versa. Total RNA obtained from hMSC and hVSMC cultured in osteogenic differentiation medium supplemented with 1.8 mM Ca2+ for 0, 2, 8, 12 or 25 days respectively. For each timepoint 3 replicates were used, with exception for day 0 where 4 replicates were collected.
