Project description:Purpose: Globally, many jurisdictions are legalizing or decriminalizing cannabis, creating a potential public health issue that would benefit from experimental evidence to inform policy, government regulations, and user practices. Tobacco smoke exposure science has created a body of knowledge that demonstrates the conclusive negative impacts on respiratory health; similar knowledge remains to be established for cannabis. To address this unmet need, we performed in vitro functional and transcriptomic experiments with a human airway epithelial cell line (Calu-3) exposed to cannabis smoke, with tobacco smoke as a positive control. Results: We demonstrate that cannabis smoke induced functional and transcriptional responses that overlapped with tobacco smoke. Ontology and pathway analysis revealed that cannabis smoke induced DNA replication and oxidative stress responses. Functionally, cannabis smoke impaired epithelial cell barrier function, antiviral responses, and increased inflammatory mediator production. Our study reveals striking similarities between cannabis and tobacco smoke exposure on impairing barrier function, suppressing antiviral pathways, potentiating of pro-inflammatory mediators, and inducing oncogenic and oxidative stress gene expression signatures. LABA/GC intervention in airway epithelial cells exposed to cannabis smoke reduces levels of pro-inflammatory (CXCL8) and antiviral (CXCL10) mediators, while transcriptomic signatures of neutrophil mediated immunity and oxidative stress remain elevated. Conclusions: Collectively our data suggest that cannabis smoke exposure is not innocuous and may possess many of the deleterious properties of tobacco smoke, warranting additional studies to support public policy, government regulations, and user practices.

To address this unmet need, we performed in vitro functional and transcriptomic experiments with a human airway epithelial cell line (Calu-3) exposed to cannabis smoke, with tobacco smoke as a positive control. Demonstrating the validity of our in vitro model, tobacco smoke induced gene expression profiles that were significantly correlated with gene expression profiles from published tobacco exposure datasets from bronchial brushings and primary human airway epithelial cell cultures. Applying our model to cannabis smoke, we demonstrate that cannabis smoke induced functional and transcriptional responses that overlapped with tobacco smoke. Ontology and pathway analysis revealed that cannabis smoke induced DNA replication and oxidative stress responses. Functionally, cannabis smoke impaired epithelial cell barrier function, antiviral responses, and increased inflammatory mediator production.

Project description:In this study, we evaluated the common proteomic profile, as well as, the exclusively deregulated proteins in ON cells from healthy controls cannabis users (HC/c), SCZ patients non-cannabis users (SCZ/nc) and SCZ patients cannabis users (SCZ/c) as compared to healthy controls non-cannabis users (HC/nc). Moreover, we investigated quantitative and functional differences between HC/c and SCZ, and we characterized the distinct effect of cannabis in SCZ comparing SCZ/nc and SCZ/c.

Project description:Cannabis use has been controversial, largely having been designated a controlled substance over the last century. The link between cannabis smoking and disease pathogenesis may best be explored through DNA methylation, an epigentic mechanism. We investigated the relationship between epigenetic age and cannabis smoking in participants within the Canadian Cohort of Obstructive Lung Disease (CanCOLD) cohort (n=93) (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT00920348). Blood samples were profiled for DNA methylation using the Illumina MethylationEPIC BeadChipv1 at two separate laboratories and the blood epigenetic age of each sample was calculated using the Clock Foundation tool (https://dnamage.clockfoundation.org). An ANOVA was used to identify differences in the age acceleration residuals associated with cannabis smoking status (never, former, and current), adjusted for chronological age, sex, body mass index (BMI), batch, cigarette smoking status, and the first two principal components of blood cell proportions. Our observations indicated that current cannabis smoking and higher joint-years exposure are associated with epigenetic age acceleration; cessation, however, may help to normalize in part this age acceleration.

Project description:Accessible in vitro models recapitulating the human airway that are amenable to study whole cannabis smoke exposure are needed for immunological and toxicological studies that inform public health policy and recreational cannabis use. In the present study, we developed and validated a novel 3D printed In Vitro Exposure System (IVES) that can be directly applied to study the effect of cannabis smoke exposure on primary human bronchial epithelial cells. Using commercially available design software and a 3D printer, we designed a four-chamber Transwell® insert holder for exposures to whole smoke. Software was used to model gas distribution, concentration gradients, velocity profile and shear stress within IVES. Following simulations, primary human bronchial epithelial cells cultured at air-liquid interface on Transwell® inserts were exposed to whole cannabis smoke. IVES represents an accessible, open-source, exposure system that can be used to model varying types of cannabis smoke exposures with human airway epithelial cells grown under air-liquid interface culture conditions.

Project description:Even if a large amount of high-throughput functional genomic data exists, most researchers feature a strong background in molecular biology but lack advanced bioinformatics skills. In this work, publicly available gene expression datasets have been analyzed giving rise to a total of 40,224 gene expression profiles within different Cannabis tissues/developmental stages. The resource here proposed will provide researchers with a starting point for future investigations of Cannabis sativa.

Project description:Although a number of animal model studies have addressed changes in gene expression in the parenchyma and their relationship to emphysema, much less is known about the pathogenesis of cigarette smoke-induced small airway remodeling. In this study, we exposed rat tracheal explants to whole smoke for 15 minutes, and then cultured the explants in air. The airway transcriptome was evaluated using RAE 230_2 GeneChips. By 2 hours after starting smoke exposure, expression levels of 502 genes were changed up or down by more than 1.5 times (p values <0.01 or less), and by 24 hours, 1870 genes were significantly changed up or down. These included genes involved in anti-oxidant protection, epithelial defense and remodeling, inflammatory mediators and transcription factors, and a number of unexpected genes including the MMP-12 inducer, tachykinin-1 (substance P). Pre-treatment of the explants with 1 x 10-7 M dexamethasone reduced the number of significantly changed genes by approximately 47% at 2 hr and 68% at 24 hours, and in almost all instances, reduced the magnitude of the smoke-induced changes. We conclude that even a very brief exposure to cigarette smoke can lead to rapid changes in the expression of a large number of genes in rat tracheal explants, and that these effects are directly mediated by smoke, without a need for exogenous inflammatory cells. Steroids, contrary to the usual belief, are able to ameliorate many of these changes, at least in this very acute model.

Project description:Medical cannabis has been increasingly prescribed for a range of conditions including epilepsy, chronic neuropathic pain, and chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting. The benefits and possible adverse events of medical-grade cannabis products vary between patients, suggesting that genetics may play a role in the pharmacokinetics of the cannabinoids, yet regulatory restrictions have led to limited clinical studies. This study is aimed at identifying a genetic signature that is predictive of the pharmacokinetics of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the principal intoxicating chemical compound derived from cannabis. We have identified 55 variants among 38 genes that were overrepresented in either the Low-THC or High-THC groups.

Project description:Population-based studies show cannabis use doubles the risk of developing schizophrenia especially when use occurs in early adolescence (prior to age 15). However, the cause-and-effect mechanisms are largely unknown. To investigate the effect of cannabis on brain maturation and relation to the development of psychosis-like behaviours in adulthood, we treated young adolescent mice with vehicle or cannabis extract once a day for 2 weeks between postnatal days 14 and 28, and then collected hippocampal tissue for microarray analysis 12 weeks later. We identify a total of 78 differentially expressed genes (25 upregulated and 53 downregulated; p<0.05, fold change ± 1.2) and validate increases in dopamine D2 receptor (Drd2) and fatty acid amide hydrolase (Faah). Changes in Faah expression were limited to the hippocampus however Drd2 also increased in striatum but not prefrontal cortex or amygdala. When tested in adulthood with a behavioural panel relevant to schizophrenia, cannabis-treated mice displayed lower anxiety in the elevated zero-maze, decreased social preference, increased social novelty preference, mild cognitive impairments in a spatial version of the novel object recognition task and absence of latent inhibition when compared to vehicle controls. Adolescent treatment with cannabis extract thus lead to long-lasting changes in gene expression within the hippocampus which together result in behavioural deficits consistent with the negative and positive symptoms of schizophrenia.
