Project description:The regeneration of cartilage is a crucial aspect in the treatment of osteoarthritis. In recent years, cartilage regeneration has been pursued through several bioengineering strategies and using different stem cell types, such as adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (ASCs), however with a rather inefficient expression of key chondrogenic markers. Here, we analyzed the proteome of ASCs embedded in a nanocomposite hydrogel stimulated with ultrasound waves, focusing on pathways related to cartilage regeneration.

Project description:Echo-contrast agents enhance the echogenicity of ultrasound and have been clinically used for diagonosis in current medical fields. Here, the combined effects of Sonazoid, an echo-contrast agent, and ultrasound on the gene expression in human lymphoma U937 cells were investigated using an Affymetrix GeneChip system. The cells were treated with Sonazoid (0.05%; Sonazoid only), ultrasound (0.3 W/cm2 for 1 min; ultrasound only) and the combination of Sonazoid and ultrasound (0.05% Sonazoid plus ultrasound 0.3 W/cm2 for 1 min; Sonazoid + Ultrasound) and followed by incubation for 3 h at 37°C. The percentage of DNA fragmentation 6 h after treatment was 5.8 ± 1.0 (mean ± SD, n = 3), 6.0 ± 0.4, 13.5 ± 1.0, and 18.3 ± 2.3 in cells treated with control, Sonazoid only, ultrasound only and Sonazoid + Ultrasound, respectively. Of approximately 47,000 probe sets analyzed, probe sets that were differentially expressed by a factor 2.0 or greater were 40, 184 and 144 in cells treated with Sonazoid only, ultrasound only and Sonazoid + Ultrasound, respectively. Experiment Overall Design: U937 cells, a human lymphoma cell line, were treated with Sonazoid (0.05%), ultrasound (0.3 W/cm2 for 1 min) and the combination of Sonazoid and ultrasound (0.05% Sonazoid plus ultrasound 0.3 W/cm2 for 1 min) and followed by incubation for 3 h at 37°C. Non-treated cells were served as control. Total RNA samples were prepared from the cells. Gene expression was analyzed by an Affymetrix GeneChip® system with a Human Genome U133-plus 2.0 array for analysis of over 47,000 transcripts. Sample preparation for array hybridization was carried out as described in the manufacturerâ??s instructions.

Project description:The oscillations of ultrasound (US) contrast agent microbubbles under their activation by US waves engender a modulation of the permeability of biological barriers amplifying hence the extravasation of drugs and/or fluorescent markers through a process known as sonoporation. In such a way, the bioavailability of the therapeutic agent is augmented only in the area where US waves are focused. The objective now is to translate this therapeutic approach to the clinic by performing a feasibility study with the development of a therapy regime optimized for hepatic metastases of colorectal cancer.
In order to demonstrate the clinical feasibility of the therapeutic approach based on ultrasound and microbubbles, we will focus on patients with liver metastases of colorectal cancer treated with monoclonal antibodies in combination with chemotherapy.

Project description:Torpor is an energy-conserving state in which animals dramatically decrease their metabolic rate and body temperature to survive harsh environmental conditions. Here, we report the noninvasive, precise, and safe induction of a torpor-like hypothermic and hypometabolic state in rodents by remote transcranial ultrasound stimulation at the hypothalamus preoptic area (POA). We achieve a long-lasting (> 24 hours) torpor-like state in mice via closed-loop feedback control of ultrasound stimulation with automated detection of body temperature. Ultrasound-induced hypothermia and hypometabolism (UIH) is triggered by activation of POA neurons, involves the dorsomedial hypothalamus as a downstream brain region and subsequent inhibition of thermogenic brown adipose tissue. Single-nucleus RNA-sequencing of POA neurons reveals TRPM2 as an ultrasound-sensitive ion channel, the knockdown of which suppresses UIH. We also demonstrate that UIH is feasible in a non-torpid animal, the rat. Our findings establish UIH as a promising technology for the noninvasive and safe induction of a torpor-like state. To investigate the mechanism of ultrasound-induced neuronal activation, we applied ultrasound stimulation in hypothalamic preoptic area region and performed single-nuclei RNA sequencing in the ultrasound stimulated neurons (US+) and neurons without ultrasound stimulation (US-). In our sn-RNAseq analysis, we examined the association between the expression of neuronal activation markers (or IEGs) and ion channels, as well as neuron types.

Project description:Treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is challenging, with a series of available drugs each helping only a fraction of patients. Patients may face time-consuming drug trials while the disease is active, thus there is an unmet need for biomarkers and assays to predict drug effect. It is well known that the intestinal epithelium is an important factor in disease pathogenesis, exhibiting physical, biochemical and immunologic driven barrier dysfunctions. One promising test system to study effects of existing or emerging IBD treatments targeting intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) is intestinal organoids (“mini-guts”). However, the fact that healthy intestinal epithelium is in a physiologically hypoxic state has largely been neglected, and studies with intestinal organoids are mainly performed at oxygen concentration of 20%. We hypothesized that lowering the incubator oxygen level from 20% to 2% would recapitulate better the in vivo physiological environment of colonic epithelial cells and enhance the translational value of intestinal organoids as a drug testing platform. In the present study we examine the effects of the key IBD cytokines and drug targets TNF/IL17 on human colonic organoids (colonoids) under atmospheric (20%) or reduced (2%) O2. We show that colonoids derived from both healthy controls and IBD-patients are viable and responsive to IBD-relevant cytokines at 2% oxygen. Because chemokine release is one of the important immunoregulatory traits of the epithelium that may be fine-tuned by IBD-drugs, we also examined chemokine expression and release at different oxygen concentrations. We show that chemokine responses to TNF/IL17 in organoids display similarities to inflamed epithelium in IBD-patients. However, inflammation-associated genes induced by TNF/IL17 were attenuated at low oxygen concentration. We detected substantial oxygen-dependent differences in gene expression in untreated as well as TNF/IL17 treated colonoids in all donors. Further, for some of the IBD-relevant cytokines differences between colonoids from healthy controls and IBD patients were more pronounced in 2% O2 than 20% O2. Our results strongly indicate that an oxygen concentration similar to the in vivo epithelial cell environment is of essence in experimental pharmacology.

Project description:A prevalent view in treating age-dependent disorders including Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is that the underlying amyloid plaque pathology must be targeted for cognitive improvements. In contrast, we report here that repeated scanning ultrasound (SUS) treatment at 1 MHz frequency can ameliorate memory deficits in the APP23 mouse model of AD without reducing amyloid-β (Aβ) burden. Different from previous studies that had shown Aβ clearance as a consequence of blood-brain barrier (BBB) opening, here, the BBB was not opened as no microbubbles were used. Quantitative proteomics and functional magnetic resonance imaging revealed that ultrasound induced long-lasting functional changes that correlate with the improvement in memory. Intriguingly, the treatment was more effective at a higher frequency (1MHz) than at a frequency within the range currently explored in clinical trials in AD patients (286 kHz). Together, our data suggest frequency-dependent bio-effects of ultrasound and a dissociation of cognitive improvement and Aβ clearance, with important implications for the design of trials for AD therapies.
