Project description:Salivary glands produce saliva and play essential roles in digestion and oral health. Pluripotent stem cell-derived (PSC) organoids provide a powerful platform for studying salivary gland development and developing new regenerative therapy. The previous protocol of PSC-derived salivary gland organoids required complicated manufacturing processes, which hampered the organoids for basic research and clinical application.Here, by mimicking the regulatory mechanism of developing salivary glands, we reported the differentiation of induced embryonic salivary glands (iE-SGs) from mouse embryonic stem cells by step-wise treatment of retinoic acid and FGF10. We showed that the iE-SGs recapitulated early morphogenetic events, including the thickening and invagination of the salivary gland placode, and then formed initial buds. The iE-SGs also differentiated into developing ducts structures and could develop to striated and excretory ducts when transplanted in vivo. RNA- seq revealed that iE-SGs had gene expression profiles similar to mouse embryonic SMGs. Thus, our study provided an easy and safe method to generate iE-SGs and offered possibilities for studying events during salivary gland morphogenesis in vitro

Project description:Chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) targets include the oral mucosa and salivary glands after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). Without incisional biopsy, no diagnostic test exists to confirm oral cGVHD. Consequently, therapy is often withheld until severe manifestations develop. This proteomic study examined saliva and human salivary gland for a biomarker profile at first onset of oral cGVHD prior to initiation of topical steroid therapy. Whole saliva collected at onset of biopsy-proven oral GVHD was assessed using liquid chromatography coupled tandem mass spectrometry with identification of 569 proteins, of which 77 significantly changed in abundance. ZG16B, a secretory lectin protein, was reduced 2-fold in oral cGVHD saliva (p < 0.05), and significantly decreased in salivary gland secretory cells affected by cGVHD. Single-cell RNAseq analysis of healthy MSG localized ZG16B expression to two discreet acinar cell populations. Reduced expression of ZG16B may indicate specific cGVHD activity, general salivary gland dysfunction.

Project description:Salivary glands that produce and secret saliva, which is essential for lubrication, digestion, immunity, and oral homeostasis, consist of diverse cells. Maintenance of diverse salivary gland cells in organoids remains problematic. Here, we established human salivary gland organoids, which is composed of multiple cellular subsets, from 3 major salivary glands, including parotid gland (PG), submandibular gland (SMG), and sublingual gland (SLG). Human salivary gland organoids expressed gland-specific genes and proteins of acinar, myoepithelial, and duct cells. Organoids were maintained in growth media (named GEM) and further underwent differentiation in differentiation media (named DAM). Our study will provide an experimental platform for the exploration of mechanisms involvled in tissue regeneration, development, or several salivary gland diseases.

Project description:Saliva aids in the predigestion of food and perception of taste. It helps to maintain the integrity of the mineralized tooth and epithelial surfaces in the mouth, and shields the oro-digestive tract from environmental hazards and invading pathogens. Although salivary glands and saliva fluid are biologically and functionally inseparable, they have thus far been investigated as separate entities. To bridge this gap, we performed an integrative analysis of the transcriptome of 27 samples collected from the major human adult and fetal major salivary glands - submandibular, sublingual, and parotid - along with mass-spectrometry-based saliva proteome data and immunohistochemical localization in glandular tissue. Our results suggest that functional maturation at the transcriptome level occurs late in gland development, and is driven mainly by the transcription of genes that code for secreted saliva proteins. We further provide evidence that protein dosage of the most abundant salivary proteins secreted by the salivary glands is predominantly regulated at the transcriptome level. Finally, we demonstrate distinct transcriptomic profiles of each major salivary gland type that reveal functional specialization and will aid in future clinical analyses. Our study provides the hitherto most comprehensive RNAseq dataset of healthy salivary glands in humans, thus establishing a robust framework for deeper studies of saliva and salivary gland biology, development, and evolution, ultimately paving the way for better understanding the importance of these craniofacial secretory organs in health and their malfunctions in disease.

Project description:Saliva (oral fluids) is an emerging biofluid poised for clinical diseases detection. Although the rationale for oral diseases applications (e.g. oral cancer) is clear, the rationale and relationship between systemic diseases and saliva biomarkers are unknown. In this study, we used mouse models of melanoma and non-small cell lung cancer and compared the transcriptome biomarker profiles of tumor-bearing mice to those of control mice. Microarray analysis showed that salivary transcriptomes were significantly altered in tumor-bearing mice vs. controls. Analysis of the transcriptomes in the mouse tumors, serum, salivary glands and saliva revealed that salivary biomarkers have multiple origins. Furthermore, we identified that the expression of two groups of significantly altered transcription factors Runx1, Mlxipl, Trim30 and Egr1, Tbx1, Nr1d1 in melanoma-bearing mice that can potentially be responsible for 82.6% of the up-regulated genes expression and 62.5% of the down-regulated gene expression in the mice saliva, respectively. We also confirmed that the ectopic production of nerve growth factor (NGF) in the melanoma tumor tissue as a tumor-released mediator that can induce expression of the transcription factor Egr-1 in the salivary gland. Taken together, our data support the conclusion that upon systemic disease development, a disease-specific change occurs in the salivary biomarker profile. Although the origins of the disease-specific salivary biomarkers are both systemic and local, stimulation of salivary gland by mediators released from remote tumors play an important role in regulating the salivary surrogate biomarker profiles.

Project description:MyD88 is an important adaptor protein for signal transduction downstream of Toll-like receptors and TACI, receptors for regulation of innate immunity and B cell responses, respectively. The surfaces of oral mucosa are protected from infections by antimicrobial proteins and natural immunoglobulins that are constantly secreted in saliva, serving as principal innate immune defense in the oral cavity. Although MyD88-mediated signaling has a regulatory role in the intestinal mucosal immunity, its specific role in the oral cavity has been remained elusive. To identify the specific roles of MyD88-dependent signaling in gene expression profiles in salivary glands, we performed microarray analysis of the major salivary gland tissues (submandibular gland plus sublingual gland) from control (wild-type C57BL/6) mice and C57BL/6 background Myd88-null mice using Agilent Whole Mouse Genome Oligo Microarrays (8x60K, Design ID 028005).

Although the origins of the disease-specific salivary biomarkers are both systemic and local, stimulation of salivary gland by mediators released from remote tumors play an important role in regulating the salivary surrogate biomarker profiles. Experiment Overall Design: Mice (either C57BL/6 mice or DBA/2 mice) were randomly assigned to control group and tumor group (15 animals per group). Melanoma mice model was induced by subcutaneous (s.c.) injection of B16-F1 cells in 0.1 ml PBS into the lower-right flank of C57BL/6 mice. The lung cancer model was established by s.c. injection of KLN-205 cells in DBA/2 mice. Control animal were injected with PBS alone. Established tumors were observed after 2-3 weeks. Experiment Overall Design: When tumors reached 15 mm in diameter saliva was collected and the mice were sacrificed. Mild anesthesia was induced. Mice saliva was stimulated, obtained and immediately placed in pre-schilled 1.5-ml microcentrifuge tubes. Collection was completed in 20 minutes and samples were stored at -80ºC until analyzed.In addition, Blood was collected in BD Vacutainer tubes containing clot activator (BD Biosciences). Salivary gland and tumor tissue were removed from mice, snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at -80ºC. Experiment Overall Design: Experiment Overall Design: Salivary,salivary gland, serum or tumor RNA was isolated using the RNeasy Mini Kit (Qiagen) as described previously. There are 15 mice in the control group or tumor group (totally 30 C57BL/6 mice for melanoma mouse model, another 30 DBA/2 mice for lung cancer mouse model). Samples derived from 5 mice in each group were pooled and RNA extracted. The pooling is necessary to ensure sufficient salivary mRNA can be obtained for microarray analyses. Isolated total RNA was treated with recombinant DNase (Ambion, Austin, TX). For microarray analysis, mRNA from mouse saliva, gland or tumor was linearly amplified using the RiboAmp RNA Amplification kit (Molecular Devices, Sunnyvale, CA). After purification, cDNA were in vitro transcribed and biotinylated using GeneChip Expression 3â-Amplification Reagents for in vitro transcription labeling (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA). The labeled RNAs was subsequently fragmented, hybridization and scanning.

Project description:Rabies is a fatal zoonotic disease posing a threat to the public health globally. Rabies virus (RABV) is excreted in the saliva of infected animals, and is primarily transmitted through bite contact. Salivary glands play an important role for virus propagation. However, the significance of salivary glands is less studied in RABV pathogenic mechanisms. To identify functionally important genes in the salivary glands, we employed RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) to establish and analyze mRNA expression profiles in parotid tissue infected with two RABV strains, CVS-11 and PB4. We map the transcriptome changes in response to RABV infection in parotid tissue for the first time. This work provides new clues to the study of RABV-affected salivary gland function and RABV transmission mechanisms in parotid tissue. And the salivary gland-enriched transcripts could be potential targets of interest for rabies disease control.

Project description:Whole saliva is contains major, minor and gingival crevicular fluid/secretions and it plays vital role in maintaining the oral health, three pair of major salivary glands consist of parotid, submandibular and sub-lingual glands. Saliva is a good biological fluid to explore health and disease status of human. Further, the saliva secrets from major salivary glands and have various biomolecules such as, proteins, enzymes and ions originated from serum and saliva is easily accessible through a safe and noninvasive method. In contrast, the concentrations of biomolecules in saliva are generally one tenth to one thousand of the levels in blood. Ovulation is an exclusive process through the mature (pre-ovulatory) ovarian follicles reacts to the surge of luteinizing hormone (LH) and burst to discharge fertilizable oocytes. The LH surge initiates a flow of proteolytic actions with the aim of control ovulation. Presently, many salivary proteins are have been showed as a biomarker such as Sjogren’s syndrome, Lung cancer, oral and Systemic diseases, HIV-seropositive patients, dental pellicle development, and hyperglycemia. However, there is no prominent marker protein was reported for monitoring ovulation process in human saliva. It is important prediction of fertile period in women for various applications like assisted reproduction and invitro fertilization.
