Project description:Systemic lupus erythematosus carries increased risk of pregnancy complications. To understand the underlying molecular mechanisms, we characterized the blood transcriptome of lupus patients and healthy controls during pregnancy and postpartum and performed multicolor flow-cytometry in a subset. We also followed healthy women undergoing assisted reproductive technology, allowing for analysis around embryo implantation. A striking and sustained down modulation of two lupus-related signatures, interferon and plasma cells, takes place during healthy pregnancy. These changes appear immediately post embryo implantation and are mirrored in uncomplicated lupus pregnancies. Patients with preeclampsia displayed early upregulation of neutrophil signatures and expansion of immature neutrophils. Lupus pregnancies with fetal complications carried the highest interferon and plasma cell signatures as well as ICOS+ CD4+ T cell counts. Thus, healthy and uncomplicated lupus pregnancies exhibit early and sustained transcriptional modulation of lupus-related signatures, and failure to do so is associated with adverse outcomes.

Project description:To characterize the human plasma microtranscriptome profile at first trimester of pregnancy in presence or not of pregnancy complications, we sequenced microRNAs in plasma samples collected from pregnant women between the 4th and the 16th weeks of pregnancy. We then performed differential expression analyses to assess the miRNA profile diffrences according to the presence of pregnancy complications or not (i.e. Gestational diabetes mellitus, Gestational hypertension or preeclampsia vs. normal pregnancies).

Project description:Data on the temporal dynamics of human placental gene expression is scarce. We have completed the first whole-genome profiling of human placental gene expression dynamics (GeneChips, Affymetrix®) from early to mid- gestation (10 samples; gestational weeks 5 to 18) and report 154 genes with considerable change in transcript levels (FDR P<0.1). Functional enrichment analysis revealed >200 GO categories that are statistically over-represented among 105 genes with dynamically increasing transcript levels. Analysis in an extended sample (n=43; gestational weeks 5 to 41) conformed a highly significant (FDR P<0.05) expressional peak in mid-gestation placenta for ten genes: BMP5, CCNG2, CDH11, FST, GATM, GPR183, ITGBL1, PLAGL1, SLC16A10, STC1. A central hypothesis of our study states that the aberrant expression of genes characteristic to mid-gestation placenta may contribute to affected fetal growth, maternal preeclampsia (PE) or gestational diabetes (GD). The gene STC1 coding for Stanniocalcin 1 (STC1) was identified with a sharp placental expressional peak in mid-gestation, increased mRNA levels at term and significantly elevated STC1 protein levels in post-partum maternal plasma in all pregnancy complications. The highest STC1 levels were identified in women, who developed simultaneously PE and delivered an SGA baby (median 731 vs 418 pg/ml in controls; P=0.001). CCNG2 and LYPD6 exhibited significantly increased placental mRNA expression and enhanced intensity of immunohistochemistry staining in placental sections all studied in GD and PE cases. Aberrant expression of mid-gestation specific genes in pregnancy complications at term indicates the importance of the fine-scale tuning of the temporal dynamics of transcription regulation in placenta. Observed significantly elevated plasma STC1 in complicated pregnancies warrants further investigations of its potential as a biomarker. Interestingly, a majority of genes with high expression in mid-gestation placenta have also been implicated in adult complex disease. This observation promotes a recently opened discussion on the role of placenta in developmental programming. 4 samples; this submission is extension of our earlier study (accession GSE22490).

Project description:Cell-to-cell communication is essential for the spiral artery (SpA) remodeling and required for maternal transfer of nutrient and oxygen to the fetus. Extravillous trophoblast invade the uterine arteries to remodel the SpA during the first 20 weeks of gestation. Interestingly, oxygen tenstion in the uterine environment changes with the progression of pregnancies and damage in the SpA remodelling can lead to preeclampsia and pther pregnancy complications. Recently, our understanding of how cells communicate has undergone a paradigm shift since the recognition of the role of exosomes on intercellular signaling. Here, we investigated whether oxygen tension alters the exosome release and miRNA profile from extravillous trophoblast (EVT), modifying their bioactivity on endothelial cells. Furthermore, we have established the exosomal miRNA profile at early gestation in women who develop pre-eclampsia (PE) and spontaneous preterm birth (SPTB). The effect of oxygen tension (i.e. 8% and 1% oxygen) on exosome release was quantified using nanocrystals (Qdot®) coupled to CD63 by fluorescence NTA. A real-time, live-cell imaging system (Incucyte™) was used to establish the effect of exosomes on endothelial cells. Plasma samples were obtained at early gestation (<18 weeks) and classified according to pregnancy outcomes. An Illumina TrueSeq Small RNA kit was used to construct a small RNA library from exosomal RNA obtained from EVT and plasma samples. The number of exosomes was significantly hifger in EVT culturedunder 1% compared to 8% oxygen. In total, 741 miRNA were identified in exosomes from EVT. Bioinformatic analysis revealed that these miRNA were associated with cell migration and cytokine production. Interestingly, exosomes isolated from EVT cultured at 8% oxygen increased EC migration, while exosomes from 1% oxygen decrease EC migration. These changes were inversely proportional to TNF-α released from EC. Finally, we have identified a set of uniques miRNA in exosomes from EVT cultured at 1% oxygen and exosomes isolated from maternal at early gestation, who developed PE and SPTB later in pregnancy. We suggest that aberrant exosomal signalling by placental cells is a common aetiological factor in pregnancy complications characterised by incomplete SpA remodeling and is therefore a clinically useful biomarker of pregnancy complications.

Project description:Polymorphonuclear myeloid-derived suppressor cell (PMN-MDSC) accumulate in maternal-fetal interface during pregnancy and play a role in maintenance of immune tolerance. Decreased PMN-MDSC is associated with pregnancy complications such as unexplained recurrent pregnancy loss (URPL). Whether PMN-MDSC function is different between normal pregnancy (NP) and URPL remains unexplored. Here we performed whole genome expression profile of 3 decidual PMN-MDSC from normal early pregnancy and 3 decidual PMN-MDSC from URPL. Total RNA were extracted. Cy5-labeled aRNA was hybridized and scanned on a G2505C Agilent Microarray Scanner with Agilent 0.1 XDR software. The gene expression pattern of the PMN-MDSC was significantly different between the NP group and the URPL group.
