ABSTRACT: Raw RNA-seq counts from reads aligned to the mouse genome (mm10 assembly) were generated with Htseq-count (PMID: 25260700). Differentially expressed genes between IPr and Ctl MSCs were calculated by DESeq2 (PMID: 25516281). Pre-ranked gene set enrichment was performed as recommended for RNA-seq data (PMID: 16199517). Custom R scripts were used to filter highly redundant biological processes. A false discovery rate of 0.05 was considered as an acceptable threshold for further investigation. All analyses were conducted in R (v3.6) or Python (v3.7) programming language. The ggplot2, ClusterProfiler and dplyr packages were used for data visualization. Studentâ€™s t-test was performed for normally distributed data to compute the p-value and the Benjamini-Hochberg procedure was used for adjusting the statistical inference of multiple comparisons.

Project description:Inhibitors of microsomal prostaglandin E synthase-1 (mPges-1) are in the early phase of clinical development. Deletion of mPges-1 in mice confers analgesia, restrains atherogenesis and fails to accelerate thrombogenesis, while suppressing prostaglandin (PG) E2, but increasing biosynthesis of prostacyclin (PGI2). In hyperlipidemic mice, this last effect represents the dominant mechanism by which mPges-1 deletion restrains thrombogenesis, while suppression of PGE2 accounts for its anti-atherogenic effect. However, the impact of mPges-1 depletion on blood pressure (BP) in this setting remains unknown. To address how differential effects on PGE2 and PGI2 might modulate salt-evoked BP responses in the absence of mPges-1, we generated mice lacking the I prostanoid (Ipr) receptor or mPges-1 on a hyperlipidemic background caused by deletion of the low density lipoprotein receptor (Ldlr). Here, mPges-1 depletion significantly increased the BP response to salt loading in male Ldlr-/- mice, whereas, despite the direct vasodilator properties of PGI2, Ipr deletion suppressed it. Furthermore, combined deletion of the Ipr abrogated the exaggerated BP response in male mPges-1-/- mice. Suppression of PGE2 biosynthesis was enough to explain the exaggerated BP response to salt loading by either mPges-1/Ldlr depletion or by an MPGES-1 inhibitor in mice expressing human mPGES-1. However, the lack of a hypertensive response to salt in Ipr-deficient mice was attributable to reactive activation of the atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) pathway. Interestingly, these unexpected BP phenotypes were not observed in female mice fed a high salt diet. This is attributable to the protective effect of estrogen in Ldlr-/- mice and in Ipr-/- /Ldlr-/- mice. Thus, estrogen compensates for a deficiency in PGI2 to maintain BP homeostasis in response to high salt in hyperlipidemic female mice. In males, by contrast, augmented formation of ANP plays a similar compensatory role, restraining hypertension and oxidant stress in the setting of Ipr depletion. In male mice, depletion of Lactobacilius in the gut microbiome coincided with a reduction in their fecal product, indole-3-lactic acid and plasma levels of indoxyl sulfate/ tryptophan. These metabolites act via the Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor to restrain inflammation and oxidative stress and their depletion may augment salt induced hypertension in males. Hyperlipidemic males on a high salt diet might be at risk of a hypertensive response to mPGES-1 inhibitors.
