A single cell analysis of allograft rejection and tolerance using mouse solid organ transplantation models

ABSTRACT: Solid organ transplantation in the mouse is a powerful research tool that has provided a pathway to find important mechanistic insights into the regulation of allograft injury, allograft immunopathology, and transplant rejection/tolerance, and that has unique advantages over transplantation in larger species, due to the well characterization of mouse genome and availability of genetically modified animals. However, setup of mouse liver, heart and kidney transplantation is a technically demanding surgical procedure, especially the orthotopic liver transplantation in mouse. Here, we performed Microwell-based single cell RNA-seq of three mouse organ transplantation models (liver, heart and kidney). Comparison of lymphocytes, parenchyma cells and peripheral blood mononuclear cells in liver, heart and kidney revealed distinct immune microenvironment at acute rejection and tolerance state respectively. Single-cell transcriptome analysis of mouse allograft without immunosuppressive drugs provided rich resources to help understand functioning solid-organ transplantation in human.

Protein phosphatase 2A activation promotes heart transplant acceptance in mice

Project description:Background: While heart transplantation is the standard treatment for heart failure, both acute and chronic transplant rejection frequently occur. Since the modulation of protein phosphatase PP2A activity is critical for tissue and organ homeostasis under physiological and pathophysiological conditions, PP2A may also affect the ability to tolerate transplanted organs. Here we demonstrate that administration of a novel class of small molecule activators of PP2A (SMAPs) prolonged cardiac allograft survival in a mouse heterotopic heart transplantation model. Mechanistically, SMAPs effectively suppressed the inflammatory immune response while increasing Treg population in the allografts, findings corroborated by functional analysis of RNAseq data derived from Tregs of treated splenic tissue. Importantly, SMAPs further prolonged CTLA4-Ig (an immunosuppressive agent utilized in organ transplantation)-induced cardiac rejection tolerance and extended allograft survival. SMAPs also strongly mitigated cardiac allograft vasculopathy as evidenced by a marked reduction of neointimal hyperplasia and smooth muscle cell proliferation. Mechanistic studies implicate SMAPs elicited suppression of MEK/ERK pathways as a unifying mechanism for the aforementioned effects in Tregs and SMCs. These findings highlight the potential of PP2A activation in improving alloengraftment in heart transplantation and add knowledge to the phosphatase driven regulation of the immune system in the context of organ transplantation.

Identification of microRNAs involved in acute rejection and spontaneous tolerance in murine hepatic allografts

Project description:Graft acceptance without the need for immunosuppressive drugs is the ultimate goal of transplantation therapy. In murine liver transplantation, allografts are accepted across major histocompatibility antigen complex barriers without the use of immunosuppressive drugs and constitute a suitable model for research on immunological rejection and tolerance. MicroRNA (miRNA) has been known to be involved in the immunological responses. In order to identify mRNAs in spontaneous liver allograft tolerance, miRNA expression in hepatic allografts was examined using this transplantation model. According to the graft pathological score and function, miR-146a, 15b, 223, 23a, 27a, 34a and 451 were upregulated compared with the expression observed in the syngeneic grafts. In contrast, miR-101a, 101b and 148a were downregulated. Our results demonstrated the alteration of miRNAs in the allografts and may indicate the role of miRNAs in the induction of tolerance after transplantation. Furthermore, our data suggest that monitoring the graft expression of novel miRNAs may allow clinicians to differentiate between rejection and tolerance. A better understanding of the tolerance inducing mechanism observed in murine hepatic allografts may provide a therapeutic strategy for attenuating allograft rejection. B10.BR mice were used as donors and B10.D2 mice were used as recipients. Liver allo-transplantation surgery on the mice was performed in this combination. Three mice from each group were sacrificed, and the liver grafts were removed on days 5, 8, 14 and 100 after transplantation. Total RNA, including miRNA was isolated. 100ng of total RNA was labeled by Cy3 and used as probe for hybridization to the microarray.

Intragraft molecular pathways associated with tolerance induction in renal transplantation

Project description:Complications associated with immunosuppression, specifically nephrotoxicity and infection risk, significantly affect graft and patient survival after kidney transplantation. We previously showed that tolerance could be induced and full donor chimerism, as well as immunosuppression withdrawal, was obtained in highly mismatched allograft recipients using a bioengineered stem cell product (FCRx). Gene expression profiles in renal biopsy samples from tolerance-induced FCRx recipients, paired donor organs before implant, and subjects under standard immunosuppression (SIS) without rejection and with acute rejection were compared. This dataset is part of the TransQST collection.

MOLECULAR CHARACTERIZATION OF LIVER ALLOGRAFTS FROM OPERATIONALLY TOLERANT TRANSPLANT RECIPIENTS (Illumina)

Project description:In clinical organ transplantation complete cessation of immunosuppressive therapy can be successfully accomplished in selected recipients providing a proof-of-principle that allograft tolerance is attainable in humans. The intra-graft molecular pathways associated with human allograft tolerance, however, have not been comprehensively studied before. In this study we analyzed sequential liver tissue samples collected from liver recipients enrolled in a prospective multicenter immunosuppressive withdrawal clinical trial. Tolerant and non-tolerant recipients differed in the intra-graft expression of genes involved in the regulation of iron homeostasis.These results point to a critical role of iron homeostasis in the regulation of intra-graft alloimmune responses in humans and provide a set of novel biomarkers to conduct drug-weaning trials in liver transplantation. The complete database comprised the expression measurements of 48766 probes in liver biopsies. The liver biopsy specimens available for the study were obtained: a) before immunosuppressive drugs were discontinued from tolerant (TOL, n=24) and non-tolerant (Non-TOL, n=29) recipients; b) at the time of rejection from non-tolerant recipients (Non TOL REJ, n=18); In addition, liver tissue samples were also collected from the following control patient groups: a) liver transplant recipients with chronic hepatitis due to recurrent hepatitis C virus infection (HEPC, n=12); b) liver transplant recipients with typical acute cellular rejection taking place during the immediate post-transplant period (REJ, n=9); c) liver transplant recipients under maintenance immunosuppression with normal liver function and normal liver histology 1 year after transplantation (CONT-Tx, n=8); and d) non-transplanted patients undergoing surgery for colorectal liver metastases (CONT, n=10).

Transcription profiling of mouse GalT knockout recipient of GalT transducded allo-bone marrow cells after sublethal irradiation

Project description:Xenotransplantation holds the promise of providing an unlimited supply of donor organs for terminal patients with organ failure. The gal carbohydrate results in rejection of wild type pig grafts, however, chimerism established by expression of the GalT gene prior to transplantation in GalT knockout mice results in tolerance to Gal+ heart grafts. We used microarrays in order to further understand the early events that occur within grafts that demonstrate tolerance. Experiment Overall Design: The GalT BMT recipient is a GalT knockout mouse which recieved GalT gene transduced allo-bone marrow cells transplantation after sublethal irradiation. A heart of wild type C57BL/6 was heterotopically transplanted into the recipient after GalT BMT. Syngeneic Control recipient is a wild type C57BL/6 transplanted a heart of wild C57BL/6.

Expression data from renal dendritic cells under homeostatic conditions and from donor and host dendritic cells from renal allografts (3 days post-transplantation), isolated from cortex and medulla.

Project description:Renal dendritic cells play key roles in renal homeostasis and during kidney allograft rejection. Microarray analysis aims to evaluate whether dendritic cells modulate their gene expression profile in relation to their distribution in the different renal compartments (with varying biophysical characteristics), under homeostatic conditions and during acute renal allograft rejection (3 days post-transplantation). Renal dendritic cells from homeostatic (healthy) kidneys and donor/host dendritic cells from renal allografts (3 days post-kidney transplantation) were isolated from cortex and medulla, through fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS). Total RNA was isolated from FACS-sorted cells and amplified. The cDNA product was fragmented, biotin-labeled and hybridized on Affimetrix arrays.

Kidney gene expression profile following the transplant-induced reactivation of MCMV

Project description:Reactivation of latent HCMV is a significant infectious complication of organ transplantation, and current therapies target viral replication once reactivation of transcriptionally silent, latent virus has already occurred. The specific molecular pathways that activate viral gene expression are not well understood. Our studies aim to identify these factors, with the goal of developing novel therapies that prevent transcriptional reactivation in transplant recipients. MCMV is a valuable model for studying latency and reactivation of CMV induced by organ transplantation. We previously demonstrated that transplantation of MCMV-latently infected kidneys into allogeneic recipients induces transcriptional reactivation of immediate early (IE) gene expression within 48 hr. We used microarrays to profile global mouse kidney gene expression associated with transcriptional reactivation of MCMV immediate early gene expression at 48 hr after transplant of MCMV latently infected kidneys into allogeneic recipients. We identified differentially expressed genes and pathways associated with both early acute rejection and reactivation of MCMV. control vs. allograft
