Hypercholesterolemia induces vascular immune responses to accelerate atherosclerosis progression in high fat diet-fed Tibetan minipigs

ABSTRACT: We used transcriptomics to identify vascular gene expression profiles of high-fat-fed Tibetan minipig induced-hypercholesterolemia and atherosclerotic models, to verify the hypothesis that hypercholesterolemia induces innate and adaptive immune responses to accelerate atherosclerosis. Results showed that hypercholesterolemia and atherosclerosis models occurred in the high-fat fed minipigs at 8 and 24 weeks. GSEA analysis showed that the changes of hypercholesterolemia accelerated atherosclerosis were focused on immunity inflammation and lipid metabolism, immune cells such as NK cells and T cells participated in the biological processes. 4 significant modules of 344 overlapping DEGs were identified by STEM analysis. 6 hub genes (ITGB2, TYROBP, LCP2, PTPRC, C5AR1, and PTPN6) and two immune-related pathways (Natural killer cell-mediated cytotoxicity and T cell receptor signaling pathway) were identified by CytoHubba plugin and KEGG analysis. Correlation analysis showed that hub genes were significantly correlated with lipid deposition, IMT, WBC, CD4, and CD8, which was consistent with RT-PCR validation results. From above, this study reveals that hypercholesterolemia accelerate atherosclerosis progression by inducing innate and adaptive immune responses.

ITGB2 is a Central Hub-Gene Associated with Early Fibro-Atheroma Development in A Swine Model of Atherosclerosis

Project description:Atherosclerosis is an inflammatory-driven disease involving complex mechanisms. Our study investigated the transcriptomic profile of swine abdominal aortic tissues with atherosclerotic lesions, identified pathways and biological processes that were enriched in DEGs, determined a set of hub genes central to atherosclerosis pathophysiology that may serve as potential therapeutic targets, and established a positive expression correlation between the top hub gene and its interconnecting genes upon in vitro manipulation. Our data showed that WMS FH exhibits immune and inflammation-related pathways. RNA-Seq result demonstrated distinct expression patterns between abdominal aortic tissue with atherosclerotic lesions (WMS FH) and lesion-free tissues (WMS normal) both at the gene and isoform levels. Ten hub genes were identified, including ITGB2, C1QA, LCP2, SPI1, CSF1R, CSF2RB, C5AR1, CTSS, MPEG1, C1QC. Moreover, manipulating the top-ranked gene (ITGB2) expression in porcine endothelial cells affected the expression of interconnecting genes.

The TBK1/IKKe Inhibitor Amlexanox Improves Dyslipidemia and Prevents Atherosclerosis

Project description:Cardiovascular diseases, especially atherosclerosis and its complications, are a leading cause of death. Inhibition of the non-canonical IkB kinases TBK1 and IKKe with amlexanox restores insulin sensitivity and glucose homeostasis in diabetic mice and human subjects. Here we report that amlexanox improves diet-induced hypertriglyceridemia and hypercholesterolemia in Western diet (WD)-fed Ldlr-/- mice, and protects against atherogenesis. Amlexanox ameliorates dyslipidemia, inflammation and vascular dysfunction through synergistic actions that involve upregulation of bile acid synthesis to increase cholesterol excretion. Transcriptomic profiling demonstrates an elevated expression of key bile acid synthesis genes. Furthermore, we found that amlexanox attenuates monocytosis, eosinophilia and vascular dysfunction during WD-induced atherosclerosis. These findings demonstrate the potential of amlexanox as a new therapy for hypercholesterolemia and atherosclerosis.

Microarray was used to detect the expression of lncRNAs and mRNAs in INS-1 cells treated with GLP-1RA Geniposide for 24 hours.

Project description:Studies have shown that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) can be widely involved in various physiological and pathological processes. In recent years, there have been many studies on GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) regulating islet β cells function and mass of type 2 diabetes (T2DM) patients. However, the function of lncRNAs in this process have not been fully elucidated. In this study, lncRNA microarray was used to identify the differently expressed (DE) lncRNAs and mRNAs in β cells exposed to Geniposide, which is a GLP-1RA. 308 lncRNAs and 128 mRNAs were detected with a set filter fold change≥1.5 and P-value<0.05. Gene Ontology and KEGG pathway analysis were performed to assess the underlying functions of DE mRNAs. Co-expression network of DE lncRNAs and mRNAs was constructed based on Pearson coefficient of expression level. And hub mRNAs were selected through String database and Cytoscape plugin Cytohubba. Additionally, a ceRNA network was constructed among the co-expressed lncRNAs and hub mRNAs. This study reveals key mRNAs involved in the regulation of GLP-1RA on β cells function and mass. More importantly, screening out lncRNAs that play an importance regulatory role in this process. This original research could provide valuable information for the further investigation between lncRNAs and GLP-AR in the protection of β cells.

Transcription profiling by array of human familial hypercholesterolemia to identify atherosclerotic markers in human blood

Project description:Atherosclerosis is characterized by thickening of the arterial wall and is the primary cause of the coronary artery disease and cerebrovascular disease, two of the most common causes of illness and death worldwide. One of the leading risk factors for development of atherosclerosis is familial hypercholesterolemia. Familial hypercholesterolemia is an autosomal dominant disorder, which is caused by mutations mainly located in the low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) gene. It is characterized by elevated levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, the presence of tendon xanthomas, and premature cardiovascular disease. Aim of this study was to find atherosclerotic markers in white blood cells of patients compared to healthy controls. None of these patients exhibited symptoms of atherosclerosis by standard diagnostic methods; however, transcriptome analysis of blood RNA indicated changes in ubiquitin proteolysis and cell adhesion system as expected in initiation steps of atherosclerosis. Experiment Overall Design: Five patients diagnosed with Familial hypercholesterolemia and five age, sex, BMI and smoking status matched controls contributed blood from which total RNA from white blood cells was isolated. RNA samples were analyzed using Affymetrix microarrays and two groups were compared for differentially expressed genes.

Expression data from foam cells of apolipoprotein E-deficient mice

Project description:Hypercholesterolemai is a major contributor to atherosclerosis development. To assess the effects of hypercholesterolemia on the transcriptional profiling in foam cells, mice were fed regular chow, or WD for 2 or 14 weeks prior to sacrifice. We used microarrays for broad analysis of gene expression in the 3 experimental groups. Each group included 5 mice. ApoE-/- mice were fed regular mouse chow to the age of 22 weeks (CHOW) or a western-type diet for 2 weeks between weeks 22 and 24 (2w-WD) or for 14 weeks between weeks 8 and 22 (14w-WD). Foam cells in cross-sections of the aourtic sinus were isolated by laser-capsure microdissection (n=5 per group). RNA was amplified by in vitro transcription, biotinylated, and hybridized to Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Arrays.

Imprints of atherosclerosis are present in circulating T cells of patients with Familial Hypercholesterolemia

Project description:Atherosclerosis is the major cause of death in industrialized countries. This disease has initially been characterized as a lipid disorder, but current concepts argue for an inflammatory disease, which develops in the background of hypercholesterolemia and other risk factors. In response to initial events of atherosclerosis formation, such as LDL-deposition in the subendothelial space, monocytes and T cells interact with the vessel wall. However, little is known about the properties and the behavior of these cells in this context. Using familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) as a model we demonstrate substantial differences in the gene expression of freshly isolated human monocytes and T lymphocytes. In FH monocytes we found an increased uptake of oxidized LDL, elevated amounts of scavenger receptors and adhesion molecules, and differences in the regulation of intracellular lipoprotein metabolism compared to monocytes from healthy individuals. Furthermore, the monocyte subpopulation of CD14+/CD16+ cells is less frequent in FH but exhibits significantly higher levels of CD11c and CD29 which increases the likelihood for their transmigration through the endothelial layer. The presence of increased amounts of CD69 in T lymphocytes from FH patients suggests that these cells are more activated than control cells. Our results indicate that some important steps of atherosclerosis formation already take place in circulating blood cells which extends current atherosclerosis models to the plasma compartment.
