Project description:The complex milieu of inflammatory mediators associated with many diseases is often too dilute to directly measure in the periphery, necessitating development of more sensitive measurements suitable for mechanistic studies, earlier diagnosis, guiding selection of therapy, and monitoring interventions. Previously, we determined that plasma of recent-onset (RO) Type 1 diabetes (T1D) patients induce a proinflammatory transcriptional signature in fresh peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) relative to that of unrelated healthy controls (HC). Here, using an optimized cryopreserved PBMC-based protocol, we compared the signature found between unrelated healthy controls and non-diabetic cystic fibrosis patients possessing Pseudomonas aeruginosa pulmonary tract infection. UPN727 cells were stimulated with autologous plasma (n=5), unrelated healthy control plasma (n=24), or plasma from patients with cystic fibrosis possessing Psuedomonas aeruginosa pulmonary tract infection (n=20). Gene expression analysis was perfromed in order to evaluate the transcriptional signature associated with cystic fibrosis.

Here, using an optimized cryopreserved PBMC-based protocol, we analyzed larger RO T1D and HC cohorts. In addition, we examined T1D progression by looking at longitudinal, pre-onset and longstanding T1D samples. UPN727 cells were stimulated with autologous plasma (n=7), unrelated healthy control plasma (n=44), recent onset T1D plasma (n=46), longstanding T1D plasma (n=11), or longitudinal series plasma (n=6 time points) from pre/post onset. Gene expression analysis was performed in order to evaluate the transcriptional signature associated with T1D.

UPN727 cells were stimulated with plasma that was collected pre-H1N1 (healthy) or during active-H1N1 from 5 different individuals. Gene expression analysis was perfromed in order to evaluate the transcriptional signature associated with the H1N1 influenza virus.

Project description:A need exists for biomarkers in T1D that can 1) sensitively and specifically detect disease-related immune activity prior to, and independent of, measurement of auto-antibodies towards islet cell antigens; 2) define immunopathological mechanisms; and 3) monitor changes in the inflammatory state associated with disease progression or response to therapeutic intervention. In an effort to fill this gap, we have applied a novel bioassay to both human and BB rat T1D whereby the complex milieu of inflammatory mediators present in plasma can be indirectly detected through their ability to drive transcription in peripheral blood mononuclear cells drawn from healthy, unrelated donors. The resultant gene expressions are comprehensively measured with a microarray. In our human studies, we find that plasma of recent-onset T1D patients induces expression of a pro-inflammatory signature consisting in part of many interleukin-1 (IL-1) regulated genes related to immunological activation and immunocyte chemotaxis compared to unrelated healthy controls. This signature has been found to resolve in long-standing T1D subjects (>10 years post-onset), thus associating it with active autoimmunity. Importantly, this signature has been detected in pre-onset samples of progressors to T1D years prior to onset and prior to development of auto-antibodies directed towards islet antigens. Fresh PBMCs of a healthy control donor were isolated by density gradient centrifugation. These cells were then stimulated with 20% plasma from a longitudinally monitored sibling of a T1D patient that progressed to T1D (n= 6 timepoints) at 37C in 5% CO2. Gene expression analysis was perfromed in order to evaluate the transcriptional signature associated with T1D pathogenesis.

Importantly, this signature has been detected in pre-onset samples of progressors to T1D years prior to onset and prior to development of auto-antibodies directed towards islet antigens. In applying this approach to the BN rat, we observed that samples collected from both sub-strains at 60 days of age induced transcription of genes encoding cytokines, immune receptors, and signaling molecules consistent with a their shared susceptibility and immune activation. The DRlyp/lyp signature was differentiated from that of the DR+/+ by more robust induction of many interleukin (IL)-1M-bM-^@M-^Sregulated genes. Treatment of DRlyp/lyp rats with IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1RN) delayed onset and, in part, normalized the signature, suggesting that this approach may prove useful in monitoring the effect of therapeutic interventions in human T1D. Consistent with the presence of TREG cells in DR+/+ rats, we observed induction of a signature possessing negative regulators of transcription and inflammation. Fresh PBMCs of healthy Brown Norway (BN) rats (~180 days old males, to avoid variation introduced by estrous or pubertal status) were isolated by density gradient centrifugation. Transcription was induced by culturing PBMCs for 6 h at 37M-BM-0C in 5% CO2 with 20% allogeneic BN (healthy-unrelated control), DRlyp/lyp, or DR+/+ plasma [PMID 18209091]. DRlyp/lyp and DR+/+ Plasma was pooled at various ages (30, 40, 50, 60 days old) to represent timepoints prior to onset in the DRlyp/lyp strain.

Project description:Human type 1 diabetes (T1D) arises through autoimmunity towards the insulin-producing pancreatic β cells and is modeled by the BioBreeding (BB) rat. Factors associated with islet autoimmunity are dilute and difficult to directly measure in the periphery. Therefore, we previously utilized microarray-based bioassay where human T1D sera were used to induce a disease-specific gene expression signature in unrelated, healthy peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC). Here we report that sera of both spontaneously diabetic BB DRlyp/lyp and diabetes inducible BB DR+/+ rats induce inflammatory signatures in healthy PBMC of non-diabetic Brown Norway (BN) rats, while allogeneic BN sera does not. Consistent with their common T1D susceptibility, transcriptional signatures of both BB sub-strains share identity, including cytokines, immune receptors and signaling molecules. However, like the human T1D signature, the DRlyp/lyp signature, which is associated with progression to diabetes, is differentiated from that of the DR+/+ by induction of many IL-1 regulated genes. Addition of IL-1RA to cultures significantly ablates the DRlyp/lyp signature. Daily treatment of DRlyp/lyp rats with human recombinant IL-1RA significantly delays onset and sera of treated animals do not induce the characteristic IL-1 signature. Consistent with the presence of immune regulation in DR+/+ rats is induction of a signature showing negative regulation of the NFκB pathway. This study supports prior human investigations of serum that reflect disease processes associated with progression to T1D and add to a growing body of evidence implicating the balance of IL-1 and IL-1RA as key factors influencing the severity and outcome of inflammatory responses. Experiment Overall Design: The induction of gene expression was accomplished by culturing the PBMCs of healthy day180 BN donor rats for 6 h at 37°C in 5% CO2 with a) 20% autologous BN plasma(10 replicates), b) allogeneic BN plasma (15 replicates), c) allogeneic DRlyp/lyp plasma (day 60, 4 replicates), or d) DR+/+ plasma (day 60, 4 replicates). Healthy BN PBMCs were also cultured with d60 DRlyp/lyp serum supplemented with IL-1RA (4 replicates) as well as autologous BN serum supplemented with IL-1B (4 replicates), to respectively block or induce IL-1 mediated gene expression. To determine if IL-1RA-treatment of DRlyp/lyp rats would result in modulation of the DRlyp/lyp signature, additional DRlyp/lyp rats were treated with hIL-1RA (n=6) or PBS (n=6). Rats were treated for 10 days, beginning at d30, then serum was collected at d40 and used to induce gene expression in PBMCs isolated from healthy d180 BN rats. Thus, there are a total of 53 chips being the addition of all the sample conditions mentioned above.

Project description:The long-term effects of neonatal intermittent hypoxia (IH), an accepted model of apnea-induced hypoxia, are unclear. We have previously shown lasting âprogrammingâ effects on the HPA axis in adult rats exposed to neonatal IH. We hypothesized that neonatal rat exposure to IH will subsequently result in a heightened inflammatory state in the adult. Rat pups were exposed to normoxia (control) or six cycles of 5% IH or 10% IH over one hour daily from postnatal day 2 â 6. Plasma samples from blood obtained at 114 days of age were analyzed by assessing the capacity to induce transcription in a healthy peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) population and read using a high-density microarray. The analysis of plasma from adult rats previously exposed to neonatal 5% IH vs. 10% IH resulted in 2,579 significantly regulated genes including increased expression of Cxcl1, Cxcl2, Ccl3, Il1a, and Il1b. We conclude that neonatal exposure to intermittent hypoxia elicits a long-lasting programming effect in the adult resulting in an upregulation of inflammatory-related genes. Apnea is the most common cause of neonatal hypoxia affecting about 50% of preterm births (30 â 31 weeks), usually due to immature respiratory development. Upregulation of inflammatory genes and pathways in children 7 â 10 years of age has been shown, and there is a known increased risk of insulin resistance in adulthood when the fetus is exposed to maternal hypoxia, but the mechanism is unclear. The long-term metabolic, endocrine, and immunological effects of neonatal intermittent hypoxia (IH) exposure, an accepted model of apnea-induced hypoxia, have not been thoroughly evaluated. Recent studies in rats have shown that perinatal IH exposure can result in oxidative stress, causing a permanent immune response subsequently resulting in features of diabetes mellitus. We have previously examined adult rats exposed to neonatal intermittent hypoxia and perinatal continuous hypoxia, and have found lasting âÂÂprogrammingâ effects on the HPA axis. We now assess the long term effects of an accepted model of apnea-induced hypoxia using a validated transcriptional bioassay to study the extracellular milieu of adult rats exposed to neonatal intermittent hypoxia. We hypothesize that exposure to neonatal intermittent hypoxia will result in an increased inflammatory state in the adult as a result of long-lasting programming. Sprague-Dawley (SD) rat pups were treated with neonatal normoxia (21% O2, control), 5% intermittent hypoxia (IH), or 10% IH on postnatal days (PD) 2-6, daily over 1 hr. They were reared normally by birth dams and weaned at PD22. Males were allowed to mature and sacrificed at age PD114 after an overnight fast. Whole blood collected by decapitation into tubes with EDTA, and plasma saved for further analysis. Two adult (~180 day) male Brown Norway (BN) rats served as PBMC donors. Cells were incubated with 20% plasma that was either autologous BN (self-control), or one of 3 pools: a) SD normoxic N=8, b) SD 5% IH treated N=5, and c) SD 10% IH N=3.
