Project description:Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, which is comprised of chronic bronchitis and emphysema, is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. Because tissue destruction is the prominent characteristic of emphysema, extracellular proteinases, particularly those with elastolytic ability, are often considered to be key drivers in this disease. Several human and mouse studies have implicated roles for matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), particularly macrophage-derived proteinases, in COPD pathogenesis. MMP28 is expressed by the pulmonary epithelium and macrophage, and we have found that it regulates macrophage recruitment and polarization. We hypothesized that MMP28 would have contributory roles in emphysema via alteration of macrophage numbers and activation. Because of the established association of emphysema pathogenesis to macrophage influx, we evaluated the inflammatory changes and lung histology of Mmp28-/- mice exposed to 3 and 6 months of cigarette smoke. At earlier time-points, we found altered macrophage polarization in the smoke-exposed Mmp28-/- lung consistent with other published findings that MMP28 regulates macrophage activation. At both 3 and 6 months, Mmp28-/- mice had blunted inflammatory responses more closely resembling non-smoked mice, with a reduction in neutrophil recruitment and CXCL1 chemokine expression. By 6 months, Mmp28-/- mice were protected from emphysema. These results highlight a previously unrecognized role for MMP28 in promoting chronic lung inflammation and tissue remodeling induced by cigarette smoke and highlight another potential target to modulate COPD.

Project description:Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by a progressive decline in lung function, caused by exposure to exogenous particles, mainly cigarette smoke (CS). COPD pathogenesis is initiated and perpetuated by an abnormal CS-induced inflammatory response of the lungs, involving both innate and adaptive immunity. Specifically, B cells organized in iBALT structures, as well as macrophages, accumulate in the lungs and contribute to CS-induced emphysema, but the mechanisms thereof remain unclear. Here, we demonstrate that B cell-deficient mice are significantly protected against CS-induced emphysema. Chronic CS exposure led to increased lung compliance, total lung capacity, and mean linear chord length in WT, but not B cell-deficient mice, associated with an increased size and number of iBALT structures. The increased accumulation of macrophages around iBALT and in emphysematous alveolar areas in CS-exposed WT mice coincided with upregulated MMP12 expression. In vitro co-culture experiments using B cells and macrophages demonstrated that B cell-derived IL-10 drives macrophage activation and MMP12 upregulation. In summary, B cell function in iBALT formation in CS-induced emphysema provides a new innovative mechanism, which could be explored as a target for therapeutic intervention in COPD patients. Expression data of mice treated with cigarette smoke. Lung tissue was analysed at four and six months of age.

Project description:Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a complex pulmonary disorder primarily induced by cigarette smoking, and characterized by persistent airflow limitation. The mouse represents an important model for studying COPD pathologies such as lung emphysema. In this respect, a number of mechanistic studies have been performed, however the approaches were mostly focused on single gene analysis or characterization of cellular, inflammatory or histopathological changes without attempting a more comprehensive interpretation. In the present study we aimed at applying systems biology approach to identify genome-wide molecular mechanisms indicative of cigarette smoke (CS)-induced lung emphysema. The lung transcriptomes of five mouse models (C57BL/6, ApoE-/-, A/J, CD1, and Nrf2-/-), that are known to be susceptible to CS-induced emphysema development, were analyzed following prolonged (5-6 months) CS exposure. The investigation resulted in the confirmation of many existing mechanistic explanations underlying smoke-induced lung emphysema, including increased transcriptional activity of NF-?B, and increased levels of TNF-a, IFN-g, and IL-1b. More importantly, we predicted mechanisms without currently well-documented roles, including increased transcriptional activity of PU.1, STAT1, C/EBP, FOXM1, YY1 and N-cor, and increased IL-17 cytokine expression, and reduced protein expression of ITGB6 and CFTR. We also corroborated, by using targeted proteomic approaches, several predictions such as reduced expression of ITGB6 and increased expression of BRCA1, C/EBPs, PU.1, TNF-a, IL-1b or CSF2. We believe this study will provide more insights into better understanding of CS-induced molecular processes underlying emphysema development in mice that may eventually be relevant in humans.

Project description:Proteasome dysfunction is emerging as a novel pathomechanism for the development of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a major leading cause of death in the world. Cigarette smoke is one of the main risk factors for COPD and has been shown to impair proteasome function in vitro and in vivo. Importantly, proteasome activity is inhibited in COPD lungs while expression levels of proteasome subunits are not altered. In the present study, we dissected the molecular changes induced by cigarette smoke on proteasome function in lung epithelial cells and mouse lungs. We analyzed the integrity, composition, and the interactome of isolated 26S proteasome complexes from smoke-exposed cells and mouse lungs. Moreover, we applied native MS analysis to investigate whether reactive compounds of cigarette smoke directly modify and inhibit the 20S proteasome complex. Our data reveal that the 20S proteasome is slightly destabilized in the absence of any dominant modification of proteasomal proteins. 26S pulldown and stoichiometry analysis indicated that 26S proteasome complexes become instable in response to cigarette smoke exposure. Of note, the interactome of the 26S was clearly altered in smoke-exposed mouse lungs possibly reflecting an altered cellular composition in the lungs of the smoke-exposed mice. Taken together, our results suggest that cigarette smoke induces minor but detectable changes in the stability and interactome of 20S and 26S proteasome complexes which might contribute in a chronic setting to imbalanced proteostasis as observed in chronic lung diseases associated with cigarette smoking.

Project description:Although cigarette smoke (CS) is the primary risk factor for COPD, the underlying molecular mechanisms for the significant variability in developing COPD in response to CS are incompletely understood. We performed lung gene expression profiling of two different wild-type murine strains (C57BL/6J, NZW/LacJ) and two genetic models with mutations in COPD GWAS genes (HHIP, FAM13A) after 6 months of chronic CS exposure and compared the results to human COPD lung tissues. We identified gene response patterns that correlate with severity of emphysema in mouse and human lungs. Xenobiotic metabolism and Nrf2-mediated oxidative stress response were commonly regulated molecular response patterns across C57BL/6J, Hhip +/- and Fam13a -/- murine models upon chronic CS exposure and human COPD subjects. The CS resistant Fam13a -/- mouse and NZW/LacJ strain revealed an opposite pattern of gene expression response, suggesting distinct molecular pathways for resistance against emphysema. There were few genes commonly modulated between mouse and humans. Our study suggests gene expression responses to CS may be largely species and model dependent, yet shared pathways could provide biologically significant insights underlying individual susceptibility to CS

Project description:Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a highly prevalent disease leading to irreversible airflow limitation and is characterized by chronic pulmonary inflammation，obstructive bronchiolitis and emphysema. Etiologically, COPD is mediated by toxic gases and particles, e.g. cigarette smoke, while the pathogenesis of the disease is largely unknown. Several lines of evidence indicate a link between COPD and autoimmunity but comprehensive studies are lacking. By using a protein microarray assaying more than 19,000 human proteins we determined in this study the autoantibody profiles of COPD and non-COPD smokers.

Project description:Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is one of the most prevalent lung diseases, and involves persistent airflow limitation and incorporates both emphysema and chronic bronchitis. Cigarette smoking has been identified as the main risk factor for disease development and progression. In a basic model of COPD, the disease is initiated when the physiologic response mechanisms to cigarette smoke exposure are overwhelmed; for example, because of long-term exposure effects or other aging-related changes. In this parallel-group case-controlled clinical study we asked to what extent the different transitions in a chronic-exposure-to-disease model are reflected in the proteome and cellular transcriptome of induced sputum samples from the lung. For this, we selected 60 age- and gender-matched individuals for each of four study groups: current healthy smokers, current-smoker COPD patients, former smokers, and never smokers (a total of 240 individuals). Induced sputum was collected, the cell-free supernatant was analyzed by quantitative proteomics (isobaric-tag based), and the cellular mRNA fraction was analyzed by microarray-based expression profiling. The sputum proteome of current smokers (healthy or COPD patients) clearly reflected the common physiological responses to smoke exposure, including alterations in mucin/trefoil proteins (e.g., MUC5AC and TFF1/3up-regulation), peptidase regulators (e.g., TIMP1 up-regulation), and a prominent xenobiotic/oxidative stress response (e.g., NQO1 and ALDH3A1 up-regulation). The latter response also was observed in the sputum transcriptome, which additionally demonstrated an immune-related polarization change (toward a M2 signature). The (long-term) former smoker group showed nearly complete reversal of the observable biological effects. Thirteen differentially abundant proteins between the COPD and healthy smoker groups were identified. These abundant proteins included previously reported COPD-associated proteins (e.g., TIMP1 (up-regulation) and APOA1 (down-regulation)) and novel proteins such as C6orf58 and BPIFB1 (LPLUNC1) (both up-regulated in the COPD group compared with the healthy smokers). In summary, our study demonstrates that sputum proteomics/transcriptomics can capture the complex and reversible physiological response to cigarette smoke exposure, which appears to be only slightly modulated in early-stage COPD patients. The study has been registered on ClinicalTrials.gov with identifier NCT01780298.

Project description:We have investigated the effects of cigarette smoke exposure in three different strains of mice. DBA/2 and C57Bl/6J are susceptible to smoke and develop different lung changes in response to chronic exposure, while ICR mice are resistant to smoke and do not develop emphysema. The present study was carried out to determine early changes in the gene expression profile of mice exposed to cigarette smoke with either a susceptible or resistant phenotype.

Project description:Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a respiratory disorder that is the result of extended exposure of the airways to noxious stimuli, principally cigarette smoke (CS). The mechanisms through which COPD evolves are not fully understood though it is believed that the disease process includes a genetic component since not all smokers develop COPD. To investigate the mechanism leading to the development of COPD/emphysema, we performed an experiment in which whole genome gene expression and several COPD-relevant biological endpoints (MMP-9, MMP activity, TIMP-1 and lung weight) were measured in lung tissue after exposure to two doses of CS for various periods of time. A novel and powerful method, known as reverse engineering and forward simulation (REFS(TM)), was employed to identify key molecular drivers by integrating gene expression data and 4 measured COPD-relevant endpoints. An ensemble of molecular networks was generated using REFS(TM). Simulations showed that this ensemble could successfully recover the measured experimental data for gene expression and measured COPD-relevant endpoints. This ensemble of networks was then further employed to simulate thousands of in silico gene knockdown experiments. Based on the in silico gene knockdown, thirty-three molecular key drivers for the above four COPD-relevant endpoints were identified, with the majority of them being enriched in inflammation, emphysema and COPD.
