Gene expression analysis of lung biopsies from patients with two different forms of pulmonary sarcoidosis

ABSTRACT: Approximately 60-70% of patients with pulmonary sarcoidosis have a good outcome, with disease that resolves spontaneously. It is unclear why some patients progress to fibrotic disease, and there is currently no marker that differentiates these patients from those with self-limiting lung disease. Using the Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST Array, we examined gene expression in lung tissue samples obtained using bronchoscopic transbronchial biopsy from 8 patients with active but self-limiting pulmonary sarcoidosis and 7 with active, progressive, fibrotic pulmonary disease. Analyses were performed to identify differentially expressed genes between the two groups, and to test for enrichment of sets of genes associated with defined biological processes from the Gene Ontology Consortium, as well as with gene sets derived from published data for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP).

Transcriptome analysis of peripheral blood mononuclear cells in pulmonary sarcoidosis

Project description:Purpose: This study aimed to explore the pathobiological markers of sarcoidosis in PBMCs by comparing the transcriptional signature of PBMCs from patients with pulmonary sarcoidosis and those of healthy controls by RNA sequencing. Methods:PBMC samples were collected from subjects with pulmonary sarcoidosis with no steroid/immunosuppressant drugs (n = 8) and healthy controls (n = 11) from August 2020 to April 2021, and RNA sequencing was performed with the PBMC samples. Results: Variety of DEGs were determined between groups leading to the enrichment analysis. Conclusions: The present study demonstrated that bulk gene expression patterns in PBMCs were different between patients with pulmonary sarcoidosis and healthy controls. The changes in the gene expression pattern of PBMCs could reflect the existence of sarcoidosis lesions and influence granuloma formation in sarcoidosis.

Peripheral blood gene expression as a novel genomic biomarker in complicated sarcoidosis

Project description:Sarcoidosis, a systemic granulomatous syndrome invariably affecting the lung, typically spontaneously remits but in ~20% of cases progresses with severe lung dysfunction or cardiac and neurologic involvement (complicated sarcoidosis). Unfortunately, current biomarkers fail to distinguish patients with remitting (uncomplicated) sarcoidosis from other fibrotic lung disorders, and fail to identify individuals at risk for complicated sarcoidosis. We utilized genome-wide peripheral blood gene expression analysis to identify a gene signature distinguishing sarcoidosis from healthy controls, which also served as a molecular signature for complicated sarcoidosis. Total RNA was isolated from PBMCs using standard molecular biology protocols without DNA contamination or RNA degradation. Sample processing (e.g., cDNA generation, fragmentation, end labeling, hybridization to Affymetrix GeneChip Human Exon 1.0 ST arrays) was performed per manufacturer’s instructions. A total of 29 African descent American (AA) and 10 European descent American (EA) patients with sarcoidosis were included in the overall sarcoidosis cohort with 18 AA and 4 EA patients diagnosed with complicated sarcoidosis.

Transcriptional characterization of mononuclear phagocytes (MNP) in blood and BAL of healthy and sarcoidosis patients

Project description:Pulmonary sarcoidosis is an inflammatory disease characterized by granuloma formation and heterogeneous clinical outcome. TNF is a proinflammatory cytokine contributing to granuloma formation and high levels of TNF have been shown to associate with progressive disease. Mononuclear phagocytes (MNPs) are potent producers of TNF and highly responsive to inflammation. In sarcoidosis, alveolar macrophages (AMs) have been well studied. However, MNPs also include monocytes/monocyte-derived cells and dendritic cells (DCs) that despite their central role in inflammation are poorly studied in sarcoidosis. We performed in-depth phenotypic, functional and transcriptomic analysis of MNPs subsets from blood and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid from 108 sarcoidosis patients and 30 healthy controls.

Human whole blood microarray study to compare patients with tuberculosis, sarcoidosis, pneumonia, and lung cancer (training)

Project description:This study used whole blood transcriptional signatures from patients with tuberculosis compared to those with similar pulmonary diseases, sarcoidosis, pneumonia and primary lung cancer. TB and sarcoidosis had similar signatures that were distinct from pneumonia and lung cancer. There were 16 TB, 25 sarcoidosis, 8 pneumonia, 8 lung cancer and 38 healthy controls

Genome-wide gene expression profile analysis in pulmonary sarcoidosis

Project description:We hypothesized that tissue genome-wide gene expression analysis, coupled with gene network analyses of differentially expressed genes, would provide novel insights into the pathogenesis of pulmonary sarcoidosis. Keywords: Disease state analysis Genome-wide gene expression profiles were compared in tissues derived from subjects with active pulmonary sarcoidosis (n=6) and those with normal lung anatomy (n=6). Differentially expressed genes were analyzed by gene network analysis

The transcriptional signature of active tuberculosis reflects symptom status in extra-pulmonary and pulmonary tuberculosis

Project description:Background: Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection is a leading cause of infectious death worldwide. Gene-expression microarray studies profiling the blood transcriptional response of tuberculosis (TB) patients have been undertaken in order to better understand the host immune response as well as to identify potential biomarkers of disease. To date most of these studies have focused on pulmonary TB patients with gene-expression profiles of extra-pulmonary TB patients yet to be compared to those of patients with pulmonary TB or sarcoidosis. Methods A novel cohort of patients with extra-pulmonary TB and sarcoidosis was recruited and the transcriptional response of these patients compared to those with pulmonary TB using a variety of transcriptomic approaches including testing a previously defined 380 gene meta-signature of active TB. Results The 380 meta-signature broadly differentiated active TB from healthy controls in this new dataset consisting of pulmonary and extra-pulmonary TB. The top 15 genes from this meta-signature had a lower sensitivity for differentiating extra-pulmonary TB from healthy controls as compared to pulmonary TB. We found the blood transcriptional responses in pulmonary and extra-pulmonary TB to be heterogeneous and to reflect the extent of symptoms of disease. Conclusions The transcriptional signature in extra-pulmonary TB demonstrated heterogeneity of gene expression reflective of symptom status, while the signature of pulmonary TB was distinct, based on a higher proportion of symptomatic individuals. These findings are of importance for the rational design and implementation of mRNA based TB diagnostics.
