Spatiotemporal immune atlas of a clinical-grade gene-edited pig-to-human kidney xenotransplant

ABSTRACT: Pig-to-human xenotransplantation is rapidly approaching the clinical arena; however, it is unclear which immunomodulatory regimens will effectively control human immune responses to pig xenografts. Here, we transplant a gene-edited pig kidney into a brain-dead human recipient on pharmacologic immunosuppression and study the human immune response to the xenograft using spatial transcriptomics and single-cell RNA sequencing. Human immune cells are uncommon in the porcine kidney cortex early after xenotransplantation and consist of primarily myeloid cells. Both the porcine resident macrophages and human infiltrating macrophages express genes consistent with an alternatively activated, anti-inflammatory phenotype. No significant infiltration of human B or T cells into the porcine kidney xenograft is detectable. Altogether, these findings provide proof of concept that conventional pharmacologic immunosuppression is sufficient to restrict infiltration of human immune cells into the xenograft early after compatible pig-to-human kidney xenotransplantation.

Clinical and molecular correlation defines activity of physiological pathways in life-sustaining kidney xenotransplantation [scRNA-Seq]

Project description:Progress in clinical translation of gene edited porcine kidney xenotransplantation is accelerating. However, kidney function entails more than removal of metabolic waste products and it is unknown if all endocrine functions will be faithfully reproduced by porcine kidneys in primate recipients. Seventeen cynomolgus macaques with survival >60days after life sustaining kidney xenotransplantation (LSKX) from gene edited Yucatan minipigs underwent measurement of xenograft growth and two kidney dependent endocrine pathways: renin-angiotensin-aldosterone-system (RAAS) and calcium-vitamin D-parathyroid-hormone. Clinical chemistries, plasma-renin-activity, Beta-C-terminal-telopeptide (CTx) assay, RNA-seq, single-cell RNA-seq, and serial ultrasonography were conducted and generalized linear models assessed statistical relationships. Xenografts transplanted from minipigs demonstrated only modest growth (estimated ~8.0% per year) and didn’t significantly contribute to recipient RAAS pathway. However, PTH-independent hypercalcemia and hypophosphatemia were observed and might be xenograft intrinsic suggesting close monitoring and timely intervention during the first month post-transplant. Further study of these phenotypes is warranted in designing prospective clinical trials.

A comparison between GalT-/-;hCD39;hCD55 and GalT-/-;hCD39;hCD46;hCD55;TBM pig kidney transplanted in non-human primates

Project description:Due to shortage of donor kidney, genetically modified kidney xenograft from pigs is considered. To select the optimal gene modification for xenotransplantation, knockout of carbohydrate genes or knockin of protective proteins have been applied. In this study, we utilized GalT- /-;hCD39;hCD55 and GalT-/-;hCD39;hCD46;hCD55;thrombomodulin (TBM) pigs for transplantation in non-human primates. NHPs survived for 4 weeks after kidney transplantation (4 WAT) from GalT-/-;hCD39;hCD55 pig and 6 WAT from GalT- /-;hCD39;hCD46;hCD55;TBM pig. However, mRNA sequencing and immunohistochemistry analysis revealed that 6 WAT kidney showed the severe apoptosis, inflammation, loss of renal function, and renal fibrosis than 4 WAT kidney. These results suggest that additional knockin of anti-complement (hCD26) and anti-coagulation (TBM) is not sufficient to inhibit the renal damage.

Proteomic analysis of aqueous humor and rejected graft in pig-to-nonhuman primate corneal xenotransplantation

Project description:Although pig-to-nonhuman primate (NHP) corneal xenotransplantation has shown long-term graft survival, xenogeneic antigenrelated immune responses are still stronger than allogenic antigen-associated responses. Therefore, there is an unmet need to investigate major rejection pathways in corneal xenotransplantation, even with immunosuppression. This study aimed to identify biomarkers in aqueous humor for predicting rejection and to investigate rejection-related pathways in grafts from NHPs transplanted with porcine corneas following administration of steroids combined with tacrolimus/rituximab. NHPs who had received corneas from wild‐type (WT) or α‐1,3‐galactosyltransferase gene‐knockout (GTKO) pigs were divided into groups with or without rejection according to clinical examinations. Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) was used to analyze the proteomes of corneal tissues or aqueous humor. The biological functions of differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were assessed using Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) for pathways and protein–protein interaction network analysis. Among the 66 DEPs in aqueous humor, complement proteins (C3, C5, and C9) and cholesterol metabolic proteins (APOA1 and APOA2) were related to xenogeneic rejection as biomarkers, and alternative pathways of the complement system seemed to be important in xenogeneic graft rejection. Among 416 DEPs of the cornea, NF‐κB1 and proteosomes (PSMD7, PSMA5, and PSMD3) seemed to be related with xenogeneic graft rejection. Additionally, oxidative phosphorylation and leukocyte activation‐related pathways are involved in rejection. Overall, our proteomic approach highlights the important role of NF‐κB1, proteosomes, oxidative phosphorylation, and leukocyte activation-related inflammation in the cornea, and the relevance of complement pathways of the aqueous humor as a predictive biomarker of xenogeneic rejection.

scRNA-seq of Gene-edited Porcine Kidneys Prior to Xenotransplantation into Cynomolgus Macaques

Project description:Succesful xenotransplantation of porcine kidneys into humans requires the ubiqutous expression of certain human transgenes. Modern transcriptomics now alllows gene expression to be measured at the per-cell level, which can provide important insights into the expression pattern of these life-sustaining transgenes in a complex organ such as the kidney. Analysis of this scRNA-seq data shows ubiquitous expression of transgenes in most major kidney cell populations which includes various subtypes of endothelial cells.

Cross-species single-cell transcriptomic analysis reveals the landscape of animal gastric antrum [scRNA-Seq]

Project description:Purpose: To reveal the consistency and difference of gastric antrum epithelial cells among species and provides insights into the selection of model organisms in different research directions in the future. Methods:In this study, we collected antrum epithelial tissues from human, pig, rat and mouse for scRNA-seq and conducted cross species analysis. Results: In pig antral epithelium, we identify a novel cell cluster. We also discovered that the porcine antral epithelium owns stronger immune function than the other species. Further analysis reveals this may be due to the insufficient function of porcine immune cells. Conclusions:Our results replenish the information of multiple species of gastric antral epithelium at the single cell level, providing data resources for understanding the basic situation of gastric antrum epithelial cells.

A single cell analysis of porcine thymopoiesis and thymic iNKT cells

Project description:Many aspects of the porcine immune system remain poorly characterized which poses a barrier to improving swine health and utilizing pigs as preclinical models. Here, we employed single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) to create a cell atlas of the postnatal pig thymus. Our data found conserved features as well as species-specific differences in cell states and cell types compared to human thymocytes. We also describe several unconventional T cell types with gene expression profiles associated with innate effector functions. This includes a cell census of >11,000 differentiating invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells, which revealed that the functional diversity of pig iNKT cells differs substantially from the paradigm of iNKT0/1/2/17 subset differentiation established in mice. Collectively, our data characterizes key differentiation events in porcine thymopoiesis and iNKT cell maturation, which provide new insights into pig T cell development.

Gene expression signatures of ischemia on porcine kidney

Project description:Using an oligonucleotide microarray we performed differential transcriptomic analysis of porcine kidneys subjected to intense ischemic stress which could be observed in donors deceased after circulatory death situation (60 min warm ischemia then 24h of cold storage in University of Wisconsin solution) compared to healthy kidneys (n=3). 43 genes were differentially expressed in ischemic versus healthy kidneys (adjusted p value <0.05 + log2 fold change >0.5 or <-0.5). Functional enrichment analysis via Gene ontology revealed relevant biological processes and signaling pathways such as: cellular responses to stress and cell cycle adaptation, metabolism modification, RNA reprograming, cellular phenotype changes and inflammation. Our data showed that ischemia is a dynamic process, with important transcriptional modifications on major pathways. We uncovered a number of targets which we will further validate as biomarkers and therapeutic targets to optimize organ quality. ISCHEMIA samples: Three independent porcine kidney (from different Large White pig) were clamped, removed and maintained clamped 60 min at 37Â°C, and then flushed with cold (4Â°C) University of Wisconsin preservation solution (UW) and stored at 4Â°C for 24h, then kidneys were immediatly sampled and frozen. CONTROL samples: Three independent porcine kidney (from different Large White pig) were removed and then immediatly sampled and frozen.
