Expression data from human bronchial epithelial cells

ABSTRACT: The F508del mutation, the most frequent in cystic fibrosis (CF), impairs the maturation of the CFTR chloride channel. The F508del defect can be partially overcome at low temperature (27 Â°C) or with pharmacological correctors. The rescue elicited by low temperature may involve a direct stabilization of mutant CFTR protein and/or a change in cell transcriptome that creates a more favorable proteostasis environment. To assess the effect of low temperature on gene expression we investigated the transcriptome of bronchial epithelial cells derived from CF with F508del mutation. Cells were kept under control conditions or incubated at 27 Â°C. Microarray data indicate that hypothermia induces a profound and global change in gene expression that may be in part responsible for rescue of F508del-CFTR. Bronchial epithelial cells from cystic fibrosis patients homozygotes for F508del mutation were isolated. Cells differentiated as epithelial monolayers on porous membranes (Snapwell inserts) were incubated for 24 hours at 27 Â°C or kept under control conditions. Rescue of mutant CFTR channel by low temperature was checked by measuring transepithelial chloride currents with the Ussing chamber technique. Total RNA was extracted from treated and control cells to assess changes in gene expression with microarrays.

Project description:Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is a genetic disorder CF is caused by mutations of the gene encoding for the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator protein (CFTR), a transmembrane anion channel expressed at the apical membrane of several organs, including the epithelial cells of the airway. CFTR mutations result in dysfunctional ion transport across the apical membrane at the surface of the epithelia, generating thickened and dehydrated secretions. In the lung, this leads to a decrease in the mucociliary clearance, favoring bacterial colonization and progressive obstruction of the duct. Although over 2000 CFTR variants have been identified so far, the most common mutation is a deletion of the phenylalanine in position 508 (F508del), which shows an allelic frequency of around 90% among CF patients. F508del-CFTR is incorrectly folded, causing its retention at the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and subsequent proteasomal degradation. Among the several drugs available in CF pharmacological treatment, VX-809 (commercial name Lumacaftor) is the most used drug for patients carrying F508del-CFTR mutation. This drug corrects the aberrant folding of F508del-CFTR by favoring the correct intramolecular interactions, thus enabling a higher number of copies of the defective protein to reach the plasma membrane. Localization of Organelle Proteins by Isotope Tagging after Differential ultra-Centrifugation (LOPIT-DC, https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-018-08191-w) workflow was used to study the spatial localization of proteins in the CFBE41o- cells and how it is impacted by CFTR rescue triggered by VX-809. LOPIT-DC is a powerful and well-established tool for the investigation of the spatial distribution of global proteome within cells, which combines subcellular fractionation based on differential centrifugation, quantitative mass spectrometry, and machine learning. Its application provides a global snapshot of the steady-state subcelluler distribution of proteins. The aim of this project is to identify proteins that change their cellular localization in association with the treatment, to uncover molecules that play a role in the trafficking of the defective CFTR to the plasma membrane.
