Comparative transcriptomics of epithelial cells grown under static and microfluidic gut-on-chip conditions and benchmarked against human in vivo intestinal cells

ABSTRACT: Gut-on-chip devices enable exposure of cells to a continuous flow of culture medium, inducing shear stresses and could thus better recapitulate the in vivo human intestinal environment in an in vitro epithelial model compared to static culture methods. We aimed to study if dynamic culture conditions affect the gene expression of Caco-2 cells cultured statically or dynamically in a gut-on-chip device and how these gene expression patterns compared to that of intestinal segments in vivo. For this we applied whole genome transcriptomics. Dynamic culture conditions led to a total of 5927 differentially expressed genes (3280 upregulated and 2647 downregulated genes) compared to static culture conditions. Gene set enrichment analysis revealed upregulated pathways associated with the immune system, signal transduction and cell growth and death, and downregulated pathways associated with drug metabolism, compound digestion and absorption under dynamic culture conditions. Comparison of the in vitro gene expression data with transcriptome profiles of human in vivo duodenum, jejunum, ileum and colon tissue samples showed similarities in gene expression profiles with intestinal segments. It is concluded that both the static and the dynamic gut-on-chip model are suitable to study human intestinal epithelial responses as an alternative for animal models.

Comparative transcriptomes of Caco-2 cells cultured under dynamic and static conditions following exposure to titanium dioxide and zinc oxide nanomaterials

Project description:Due to the widespread application of food-relevant inorganic nanomaterials, the gastrointestinal tract is potentially exposed to these materials. Gut-on-chip in vitro model systems are proposed for the investigation of compound toxicity as they better recapitulate the in vivo human intestinal environment than static models, due to the added shear stresses associated with the flow of medium in line with what cells experience in vivo. We aimed to compare the cellular responses of intestinal epithelial Caco-2 cells at the gene expression level upon TiO2 (E171) and ZnO (NM110) nanomaterial exposure when cultured under dynamic and static conditions. For this, we applied whole genome transcriptome analyses. Differentially expressed genes and related biological processes revealed culture condition specific responses upon exposure to TiO2 and ZnO nanomaterials. The materials had more effects on cells cultured in the gut-on-chip when compared to the static model, indicating that shear stress might be a major factor in cell susceptibility. This is the first report on application of a gut-on-chip system to evaluate cellular responses upon TiO2 and ZnO nanomaterials compared to a static system and extends current knowledge on nanomaterial-cell interactions and toxicity assessment. Dynamically cultured cells appear to be more sensitive and the gut-on-chip might thus be an attractive model to be used more extensively in the toxicological hazard characterization.

Single-cell transcriptomics of Caco-2 cells cultured in a human gut-on-a-chip under a mechanodynamic culture condition

Project description:The microphysiological human gut-on-a-chip has demonstrated in vivo-relevant cellular fidelity of intestinal epithelium compared to its cultures in a static condition1, 2. Microfluidic control of morphogen gradients and mechanical cues robustly induced morphological histogenesis with villi-like three-dimensional (3D) microarchitecture, lineage-associated cytodifferentiation, and physiological functions of a human intestinal Caco-2 epithelium3, 4. However, transcriptomic dynamics that orchestrates morphological and functional reprogramming of the epithelium in a microphysiological culture remains elusive. Single-cell transcriptomic analysis revealed that a gut-on-a-chip culture that offers physiological motions and flow drives three distinctive subclusters that offer distinct gene expression and unique spatial representation in 3D epithelial layers. The pseudotemporal trajectory of individual cells visualized the evolutionary transition from ancestral genotypes in static cultures into more heterogeneous phenotypes in physiodynamic cultures on cell cycles, differentiation, and intestinal functions including digestion, absorption, drug transport, and metabolism of xenobiotics. Furthermore, the inversed transcriptomic signature of oncogenes and tumor-suppressor genes of Caco-2 cells verified that a gut-on-a-chip culture drives a postmitotic reprogramming of cancer-associated phenotypes. Thus, we discovered that a physiodynamic on-chip culture is necessary and sufficient for a cancer cell line to be reprogrammed to elicit in vivo-relevant heterogeneous cell populations with restored normal physiological signatures.

Differential gene expression in colon organoids isolated from germ-free, E.coli strains Nissle 1917 and O6K13 monoassociated, and conventionally reared mice

Project description:Commensal microbiota contribute to gut homeostasis and influence gene expression. Intestinal organoid culture closely represent intestinal epithelium and retain intestinal stem cells and dynamic recovery capabilities as well as all major cell types of the intestinal epithelium. We established organoid culture using colon crypts isolated from germ-free (GF), and gnotobiotic mice monocolonized either with the E.coli strain O6K13 (O) or Nissle 1917 strain (N). The expression profiles of these organoids were compared to the organoid culture isolated from conventionally reared (CR) mice in order to disclose genes differentially expressed in response to the change in the intestinal microflora composition.

Intestinal stroma guides monocyte differentiation to macrophages through GM-CSF

Project description:Stroma provides tissues with structural integrity and organization, but its capacity to shape myeloid cells is poorly understood. Here we quantify stromal response to inflammation in pediatric inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and reveal subset-specific inflammatory responses across colon segments and intestinal layers. Using data from a murine dynamic gut injury model and human ex vivo transcriptomic/protein/spatial analysis, we found that PDGFRA+CD142-/low fibroblasts and monocytes/macrophages co-localize in the intestine. Primary human fibroblast-monocyte co-cultures showed that intestinal PDGFRA+CD142-/low fibroblasts foster monocyte transition to CCR2+CD206+ macrophages through granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF). Monocyte-derived CCR2+CD206+ cells from co-cultures had a phenotype similar to intestinal CCR2+CD206+ macrophages from newly diagnosed pediatric IBD patients, with higher levels of PD-L1 and lower levels of GM-CSF receptor. The study depicts subset-specific changes in stromal response to inflammation and demonstrates the stromal potential to guide intestinal macrophage differentiation.

miRNA-mediated expression switch of cell adhesion genes driven by microcirculation in chip

Project description:Changes in cell adhesion molecule (CAM) expression and miRNAs regulating them are known to be involved in malignant progression in colon cancer. We investigated expression profiles of CAM genes and non-coding RNAs in CaCo2 colon cancer cells in static culture and under dynamic flow conditions perfused in microfluidic chip emulating physiological microenvironment. We incubated monolayers of CaCo2 cells in Transwell® units either under static conditions or under flow in a microfluidic chip. We identified 7 up-regulated CAM genes (CD44, CDH7, CEACAM5, CEACAM6, CYR61, L1CAM and VCAN), 7 down-regulated genes (COL12A1, FGA, FGB, FGG, GJA1, ITGA5 and LAMA1) and 69 miRNAs targeting them under the influence of microcirculation. The revealed network comprised CAM genes known to interact with each other and 13 miRNAs simultaneously regulating more than one of them.

A modular-designed millifluidic organ-on-a-chip device to recapitulate key human gut epithelium features in the perspective of microbiota-gut-brain axis

Project description:The ERC “MINERVA” project (GA 724734) aims at developing a multi-organ-on-a-chip engineered platform to recapitulate in vitro the main players involved in the MGBA crosstalk: the microbiota, the gut epithelium, the immune system, the blood-brain barrier and the brain. In this context, the gut epithelium represents a physiological barrier that separates the intestinal lumen from the systemic circulation, and in several pathological circumstances, seems that its permeability might significantly increase and allow the passage of biologically active molecules into the blood vessels surrounding the intestinal mucosa. In the present work, we present our MINERVA 2.0 device and our innovative gut-on-a-chip device obtained by culturing in MINERVA 2.0 and a human gut epithelial CaCo2 cell based model. In particular, we have cultured the cells under perfusion and have assessed cell behavior by addressing cellular viability, tight junction imaging, apparent permeability by FITC-Dextran and transepithelial electrical resistance evaluation. Transcriptomic profile was used to further elucidate the effects of dynamic perfusion on Caco-2 cells.
