Project description:Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a highly prevalent disorder of the gastrointestinal tract characterized by abdominal pain, bloating, and disturbed bowel function. Here we report on the analysis of microarray expression profiles of sigmoid colon mucosal biopsies from IBS patients and healthy control subjects. Two samples were collected from each individual. From 10 individuals, a third sample was collected 2-3 months after the initial collection. The repeat samples were used to assess the robustness of the expression profiles over different locations within the colon and over time. This analysis revealed a number of differentially expressed genes in IBS patients, which point to functional alterations of specific components of the host defence system and the immune response. This is in support of an important role for peripheral gastrointestinal changes underlying the aetiology of IBS. Two gene probe sets with the most strikingly increased expression in mucosal colon biopsies of IBS patients represent a gene that is, as yet, uncharacterised (DKFZP564O0823). We propose to rename this gene IBS1. We also report on the identification of specific sets of gene probes on the microarray, so-called molecular signatures, which enable the distinction of IBS patients from healthy controls. The expression profiles in IBS are consistent across different sites within the sigmoid colon and are stable over time.

Project description:Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a prevalent functional gastrointestinal disorder that significantly reduces patients' quality of life. However, current animal models have limitations in replicating the complex pathophysiology of IBS. In this study, we successfully developed a mouse model by mating intestinal epithelium-specific Cre tool mice with chemically modified human muscarinic acetylcholine receptor 3 (hCHRM3) mice, resulting in specific expression of the hCHRM3 in the intestinal epithelial cells. Activation of the hCHRM3 with clozapine-N-oxide (CNO) mimicked IBS attacks. The model mice exhibited typical IBS symptoms such as diarrhea, pain, and visceral hypersensitivity, along with pathological changes like intestinal edema and inflammatory cell infiltration, and disruption of the intestinal mucosal barrier. RNA sequencing revealed significant differentially expressed genes between the model and control groups, with KEGG and GO enrichment analyses indicating significant enrichment of immune and inflammation-related pathways. Additionally, the model mice showed increased levels of short-chain fatty acids and imbalances in the diversity and composition of the gut microbiota. This new IBS mouse model effectively simulates the symptoms and pathological processes of human IBS, providing a powerful tool for in-depth research into the pathogenesis of IBS and the development of therapeutic strategies.

Project description:We conducted a microarray study of sigmoid mucosal gene expression in pilot sample of Rome III+ IBS patients and age and sex-matched HCs. This sample was balanced by sex, free of active psychiatric disease and had limited use of medications. Rome III+ IBS patients and HCs ages 18-55 were recruited primarily by community advertisement. Bowel habit subtypes (IBS with diarrhea (IBS-D), constipation (IBS-C) and mixed pattern (IBS-M)) were based on the Rome III criteria. The diagnosis was confirmed by a clinician with expertise in IBS. Rome III+a IBS patients and HCs ages 18-55 were recruited primarily by community advertisement. Bowel habit subtypes (IBS with diarrhea (IBS-D), constipation (IBS-C) and mixed pattern (IBS-M)) were based on the Rome III criteria. The diagnosis was confirmed by a clinician with expertise in IBS. HCs had no personal or family history of IBS or other chronic pain conditions. Additional exclusion criteria for all subjects included: infectious or inflammatory disorders, active psychiatric illness over the past 6 months as assessed by structured clinical interview for the DSM-IV (MINI),b use of corticosteroids in the past six months, use of narcotics, antidepressants or other medications that could affect neuroendocrine function in the past two months, or current tobacco or alcohol abuse. Participants were compensated. Our goal was to evaluate women during the follicular phase or days 4-14 of their menstrual cycle if on oral contraceptive pills. Phase was determined by date of last menstrual period and progesterone levels. The study was approved by the UCLA Institutional Review Board, and all subjects signed a written informed consent prior to start of study. IBS symptom severity over the prior week was assessed with a numeric rating scale (0-20).c Current anxiety and depression symptoms were measured with the Hospital Anxiety and Depression (HAD) scale.d Sigmoid biopsies (30cm from the anal verge) were obtained by flexible sigmoidoscopy following tap water enemas. Specimens were immediately flash frozen in liquid nitrogen. RNA was extracted with TRIzol.

Project description:The role of environmental factors and gender disparities as determinants of health is incontrovertible. In the digestive sphere, it is noteworthy that one of the most prevalent diseases such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) has a predominance in females. The origin of IBS is related to mucosal microinflammation phenomena, psychosocial stress, and in the last years, alterations in gut microbiota. Recent observations from our group in healthy subjects, demonstrate that both chronic psychosocial stress, and female gender per se determine a significant intestinal epithelial barrier dysfunction in response to intercurrent stimuli, which, in susceptible individuals, could result in an early stage in the development of more lasting changes and the onset of clinical manifestations of IBS. Although the intimate mechanisms involved in stress-induced intestinal pathophysiology are not well known, diverse studies suggest that gut microbiota alteration, through epigenetic modifications of the main stress-mediators could be one of them. However, solid scientific evidence demonstrating the influence of stress on gut microbiota and epigenetics of the main stress-mediators is missing. Therefore, we want to investigate and characterize gender-dependent epigenetic modifications involved in intestinal barrier dysfunction in response to acute stress. The identification of gender-dependent abnormal epigenetic patterns related to female gender dysfunction can make a breakthrough in the understanding of the pathophysiology of the regulation of intestinal permeability, and promote positive diagnostic and therapeutic future progress in IBS.

Project description:Background: Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) has been gradually recognized as a disorder of the brain-gut interaction, but the molecular changes in the brain and colon that occur in disease development remain poorly understood. We employed proteomic analysis to identify differentially expressed proteins in both the brain and colon of three IBS models. Methods: To explore the relevant protein abundance changes in the brain and colon, isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ), liquid chromatography and tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS) and Western blotting methods were used in three IBS models, including maternal separation (MS, group B), chronic wrap restraint stress (CWRS, group C) and a combination of MS and CWRS (group D). Results: We identified 153, 280, and 239 proteins that were common and differentially expressed in the two tissue types of groups B, C and D, respectively; 43 differentially expressed proteins showed the same expression changes among the three groups, including 25 proteins upregulated in the colon and downregulated in the brain, 7 proteins downregulated in the colon and upregulated in the brain, and 3 proteins upregulated and 8 downregulated in both tissues. Gene ontology analysis showed that the differentially expressed proteins were mainly associated with cellular assembly and organization and cellular function and maintenance. Protein interaction network and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis indicated that the differentiated proteins were mainly involved in the protein ubiquitination pathway and mitochondrial dysfunction. Conclusions: Taken together, the data presented represent a comprehensive and quantitative proteomic analysis of the brain and colon in IBS models, providing new evidence of an abnormal brain-gut interaction in IBS. These data may be useful for further investigation of potential targets in the diagnosis and treatment of IBS.
