Project description:Myofibroblasts are one of the key cell types in cardiac injuries, leading to scar tissue formation and reduced heart function. To investigate the impact of microcurrent treatment on these cells, primary rat cardiac fibroblasts were initially differentiated into myofibroblasts. Subsequently, the differentiated myofibroblasts were subjected to microcurrent treatment at 1 and 2 µA/cm2 direct current (DC) with and without polarity reversal. Microcurrent treatments resulted in distinct transcriptional signatures and improved cell behavior. The observations show signs of microcurrent-mediated reversal of myofibroblast phenotype, possibly reducing cardiac fibrosis, and providing insights for cardiac tissue repair.

Project description:Fibrosis due to extracellular matrix (ECM) secretion from myofibroblasts complicates many chronic liver diseases causing scarring and organ failure. Integrin-dependent interaction with scar ECM promotes profibrotic features. This microarray study was performed to clarify the role of integrin beta-1 (Itgb1) in profibrotic myofibroblasts.

Project description:Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), a chronic progressive lung disease of unknown etiology, is characterized by the expansion of myofibroblasts and abnormal deposition of extracellular matrix in the lung parenchyma. To elucidate the molecular mechanisms that lead to IPF, we analyzed myofibroblasts established from patients with IPF by oligonucleotide microarrays. Gene expression profiles revealed a novel pathophysiologic function of myofibroblasts as a generator of reactive oxygen species, and a self-defense mechanism against oxidative stress of their own generating. Experiment Overall Design: We isolated two myofibroblast cell culture from patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Embryonic pulmonary fibroblast was used for the reference.

Project description:As a group, fibroproliferative disorders of the lung, liver, kidney, heart, vasculature and integument are common, progressive and refractory to therapy. They can emerge following toxic insults, but are frequently idiopathic. Their enigmatic propensity to resist therapy and progress to organ failure has focused attention on the myofibroblast – the primary effector of the fibroproliferative response. A central unanswered question is whether these myofibroblasts have acquired a distinct pathological phenotype - or whether they are normal myofibroblasts with a pathological phenotype that depends upon residing in a sea of pro-fibrotic cytokines and an abnormal extracellular matrix. Using a systems approach to study this question in a prototype fibrotic disease, Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF); here we show organized changes in the gene expression pathway of primary lung myofibroblasts that persist for up to 9 sub-cultivations in vitro. When comparing IPF and control myofibroblasts in a 3-dimensional type I collagen matrix, more genes differed at the level of ribosome recruitment than at the level of transcript abundance, indicating pathological translational control as a major characteristic of IPF myofibroblasts. To determine the effect of matrix state on translational control, myofibroblasts were permitted to contract the matrix. Ribosome recruitment in control myofibroblasts was relatively stable. In contrast, IPF cells manifested large alterations in the ribosome recruitment pattern. Pathological studies suggest an epithelial origin for IPF myofibroblasts through the epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT). In accord with this, we found systems-level indications for TGF?b -driven EMT as one source of IPF myofibroblasts.

Project description:Myofibroblasts are fibroblastic cells that function in wound healing, tissue repair and fibrosis, and are derived from bone marrow (BM) and a variety of local progenitor cells. In the cornea, myofibroblasts are derived primarily from stromal keratocytes and from BM-derived fibrocytes after epithelial-stromal and endothelial-stromal injuries. Quantitative proteomic comparison of mature alpha-smooth muscle actin (alpha-SMA)+ myofibroblasts from rabbit cornea and BM was pursued for insights into possible functional differences. Cornea- and BM-derived alpha-SMA+ myofibroblast primary cultures were generated from four New Zealand white rabbits and confirmed to be myofibroblasts by immunocytochemistry. Paired cornea- and BM-derived myofibroblast specimens from each rabbit were analyzed by LC MS/MS iTRAQ technology using an Orbitrap Fusion Lumos Tribrid mass spectrometer, the Mascot search engine, the weighted average quantification method and the UniProt rabbit and human databases. From 2329 proteins quantified with >= 2 unique peptides from >= 3 rabbits, a total of 673 differentially expressed (DE) proteins were identified. Bioinformatic analysis of DE proteins with Ingenunity Pathway Analsysis implicate progenitor-dependent functional differences in myofibroblasts that could impact tissue development. Our results suggest BM-derived myofibroblasts may be more prone to the formation of excessive cellular and extracellular material that are characteristic of fibrosis.

Project description:Transparent avascular cornea providing two third refraction to the eye. Restoration of corneal transparency and clear vision in a traumatic eye involves the action of many cytokines and signaling pathways. Out of several factors, stromal keratocytes/fibroblasts (CSFs) play a central role in corneal repair and wound healing. Post trauma, keratocytes/fibroblasts produce myofibroblasts to facilitate wound repair by synthesizing and secreting large extracellular matrix components, collagens, and alpha-smooth muscle actin stress fibers. This study aimed to perform RNASeq data analysis and pathway enrichments to gain a better understanding of gene regulation in corneal fibroblasts and myofibroblasts in corneal wound repair.

Project description:Cardiac fibroblasts convert to myofibroblasts with injury to mediate healing after acute myocardial infarction and to mediate long-standing fibrosis with chronic disease. Myofibroblasts remain a poorly defined cell-type in terms of their origins and functional effects in vivo. Methods: Here we generate Postn (periostin) gene-targeted mice containing a tamoxifen inducible Cre for cellular lineage tracing analysis. This Postn allele identifies essentially all myofibroblasts within the heart and multiple other tissues. Results: Lineage tracing with 4 additional Cre-expressing mouse lines shows that periostin-expressing myofibroblasts in the heart derive from tissue-resident fibroblasts of the Tcf21 lineage, but not endothelial, immune/myeloid or smooth muscle cells. Deletion of periostin+ myofibroblasts reduces collagen production and scar formation after myocardial infarction. Periostin-traced myofibroblasts also revert back to a less activated state upon injury resolution. Conclusions: Our results define the myofibroblast as a periostin-expressing cell-type necessary for adaptive healing and fibrosis in the heart, which arises from Tcf21+ tissue-resident fibroblasts.

Project description:All samples are conditioned media from primary cultured human gastric myofibroblasts, derived from either carcinoma tissue, or adjacent non cancerous tissue. In each experiment the cancer-derived myofibroblasts are compared against the non-cancer derived myofibroblasts from the same patient. All of the experiments were samples from Patient 1, except for 648, which is from Patient 2. SILAC labelling in each case is; 567 - Methionine COFRADIC; Cancer-derived = Heavy, Non-cancer = Light 575 - N-terminal COFRADIC; Cancer-derived = Heavy, Non-cancer = Light 646 - Cancer-derived = Light, Non-cancer = Heavy 647 - Non-cancer = Heavy, Non-cancer = Light (same cell line labelled twice to create a control experiment) 648 - Cancer-derived = Heavy, Non-cancer = Light
