Subacromial bursa in patients with rotator cuff tear with or without adhesive capsulitis exhibits a differential transcriptome with potential molecular biomarkers.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Although adhesive capsulitis (AC) is a common condition, the pathological mechanisms remain understudied. The purpose of our research was to evaluate variations in gene expression across the entire genome in the subacromial bursa tissue of individuals with rotator cuff tears (RCT), with or without AC, and to explore the factors that may influence the occurrence and progression of AC.

Methods

Transcription profiles of subacromial bursa samples from 12 RCT patients, of whom 6 had also AC, were evaluated. Data were generated using RNA-seq. DESeq2 was utilized to identify the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in both groups. In order to conduct a more in-depth examination of the DEGs, we performed Gene Ontology (GO) functional enrichment and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis. A network of interactions between proteins was built, and the central genes were determined using Cytoscape. The hub genes were confirmed through qRT-PCR and immunohistochemistry.

Results

324 of the 16,251 detected genes were identified as DEGs. Analysis of GO functional enrichment showed that the DEGs were enriched in domains of biological process, molecule function and cellular component. Analysis of KEGG pathways revealed enrichment of DEGs in pathways like IL-17 signaling and ECM-receptor interaction. We verified that the association between AC and the increase in expression of the PPI network hub genes.

Conclusion

This study investigated the transcriptome differences of subacromial bursa in RCT patients with or without AC. Using bioinformatics technology, we identified the DEGs and screened out the hub genes. The research enhanced the data on gene expression profiles of DEGs in the subacromial bursa tissue of patients with RCT, offering fresh perspectives on the regulation of gene transcription.

Project description:Myosteatosis is the pathological accumulation of lipid that occurs in conjunction with atrophy and fibrosis following skeletal muscle injury or disease. Little is known about the mechanisms by which lipid accumulates in myosteatosis, but many studies have demonstrated the degree of lipid infiltration negatively correlates with muscle function and regeneration. Our goal was to identify biochemical pathways that lead to muscle dysfunction and lipid accumulation in injured rotator cuff muscles, a model that demonstrates severe myosteatosis. Adult rats were subjected to a massive tear to the rotator cuff musculature. After a period of either 0 (healthy control), 10, 30, or 60 days, muscles were prepared for RNA sequencing, shotgun lipidomics, metabolomics, biochemical measures, electron microscopy, and muscle fiber contractility. Following rotator cuff injury, there was a decrease in muscle fiber specific force production that was lowest at 30d. There was a dramatic time dependent increase in triacylglyceride content. Interestingly, genes related to not only triacylglyceride synthesis, but also lipid oxidation were largely downregulated over time. Using bioinformatics techniques, we identified that biochemical pathways related to mitochondrial dysfunction and reactive oxygen species were considerably increased in muscles with myosteatosis. Long chain acyl-carnitines and L-carnitine, precursors to beta-oxidation, were depleted following rotator cuff tear. Electron micrographs showed injured muscles displayed large lipid droplets within mitochondria at early time points, and an accumulation of peripheral segment mitochondria at all time points. Several markers of oxidative stress were elevated following rotator cuff tear. The results from this study suggest that the accumulation of lipid in myosteatosis is not a result of canonical lipid synthesis, but occurs due to decreased lipid oxidation in mitochondria. A failure in lipid utilization by mitochondria would ultimately cause an accumulation of lipid even in the absence of increased synthesis. Further study will identify whether this process is required for the onset of myosteatosis.
