Reduced FOXF1 Links Unrepaired DNA Damage to Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension

ABSTRACT: Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a progressive disease in which pulmonary arterial (PA) endothelial cell (EC) dysfunction is associated with unrepaired DNA damage. BMPR2 is the most common mutant gene in PAH. We report that human PAEC with reduced BMPR2 have persistent DNA damage in room air after hypoxic exposure (reoxygenation), as do mice with EC deletion of Bmpr2 (EC-Bmpr2-/-) and persistent pulmonary hypertension. Similar findings are observed in PAEC with loss of the DNA damage sensor ATM, and in mice with Atm deleted in EC (EC-Atm-/-). Gene expression analysis of EC-Atm-/- and EC-Bmpr2-/- lung EC revealed reduced Foxf1, a transcription factor with relative selectivity for lung EC. Reducing FOXF1 in control PAEC induced DNA damage and impaired angiogenesis whereas transfection of FOXF1 in PAH PAEC repaired DNA damage and restored angiogenesis. Lung EC targeted delivery of Foxf1 to reoxygenated EC-Bmpr2-/- mice repaired DNA damage, induced angiogenesis and reversed pulmonary hypertension.

Acquired chromosome abnormalities in the lungs of patients with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (Illumina)

Project description:Vascular remodeling in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) involves proliferation and migration of endothelial and smooth muscle cells, leading to obliterative vascular lesions. Previous studies have indicated that the endothelial cell proliferation is quasi-neoplastic, with evidence of monoclonality and instability of short DNA microsatellite sequences. To assess whether there is larger scale genomic instability, we performed genome-wide microarray copy number analysis on pulmonary artery endothelial (PAEC) and smooth muscle cells isolated from the lungs of PAH patients. Mosaic chromosomal abnormalities were detected in five of nine PAEC cultures from PAH lungs and zero of four controls. Fluorescent in situ hybridization analysis confirmed the presence of these abnormalities in vivo in two of three cases. One patient harbored a germline mutation of BMPR2, the primary genetic cause of PAH, and a somatic loss of chromosome-13, which constitutes a second hit in the same pathway by deleting Smad-8. In two female cases with mosaic loss of the X-chromosome, methylation analysis showed that the active X was deleted. Remarkably, one also showed completely skewed X-inactivation in the non-deleted cells, suggesting the PAEC population was clonal prior to the acquisition of the chromosome abnormality. Our data indicate a high frequency of genetically abnormal sub-clones within the lung vessels of patients with PAH and provide the first definitive evidence of a second genetic hit in a patient with a germline BMPR2 mutation. We propose that these chromosome abnormalities may confer a growth advantage and thus contribute to the progression of PAH. Cross-sectional study of genomic copy number in cells cultured from the lungs of PAH patients.

Effects of ACE2 on BMPR2 mutation-mediated defects in gene expression

Project description:BMPR2 mutation causes pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH); ACE2 treatment can resolve established BMPR2-mediated PAH. The purpose of this study was to uncover the molecular mechanism behind this. Four groups: +/- ACE2 and +/- BMPR2 transgene, two arrays each, each array a pool of three animals.

Effects of BMPR2 Loss in Human Pulmonary Artery Endothelial Cells

Project description:Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a fatal disease characterized by a proliferative endothelial cell phenotype, inflammation and pulmonary vascular remodeling. BMPR2 loss-of-function has been linked to pathologic plexiform lesions with obliteration of distal pulmonary arteries distal pulmonary arteries BMPR2 silencing inprimary human pulmonary artery ECs (HPAECs) recapitulate important aspects of cellular dysfunction and deregulated signaling associated with PAH. Primary HPAECs were transfected with gene-specific siRNA pools targeting BMPR2 or control siRNA followed PMA or control stimulation.

Transcriptional Profiles of Pulmonary Artery Endothelial Cells in Pulmonary Hypertension

Project description:Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is characterized by endothelial cell (EC) dysfunction. There are no data from living patients to inform whether differential gene expression of pulmonary artery ECs (PAECs) can discern disease subtypes, progression and pathogenesis. We aimed to further validate our previously described method to propagate ECs from right heart catheter (RHC) balloon tips and to perform additional PAEC phenotyping. We performed bulk RNA sequencing of PAECs from RHC balloons. Using unsupervised dimensionality reduction and clustering we compared transcriptional signatures from PAH to controls and other forms of pulmonary hypertension. Select PAEC samples underwent single cell and population growth characterization and anoikis quantification. Fifty-four specimens were analyzed from 49 subjects. The transcriptome appeared stable over limited passages. Six genes involved in sex steroid signaling, metabolism, and oncogenesis were significantly upregulated in PAH subjects as compared to controls. Genes regulating BMP and Wnt signaling, oxidative stress and cellular metabolism were differentially expressed in PAH subjects. Changes in gene expression tracked with clinical events in PAH subjects with serial samples over time. Functional assays demonstrated enhanced replication competency and anoikis resistance. Our findings recapitulate fundamental biological processes of PAH and provide new evidence of a cancer-like phenotype in ECs from the central vasculature of PAH patients. This “cell biopsy” approach may provide insight into EC heterogeneity within the lung and a therapeutic screening approach in PAH.

Bmpr2 mutation in murine PMVEC

Project description:Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is thought to be driven by dysfunction of pulmonary vascular microendothelial cells (PMVEC). Most hereditary PAH is associated with BMPR2 mutations. However, the physiologic and molecular consequences of expression of BMPR2 mutations in PMVEC are unknown. PMVEC were isolated from triple transgenic mice carrying the immortomouse gene, a transactivator, and either control, Bmpr2delx4+ or Bmpr2R899X mutation
