Project description:We performed RNA microarray in a low protein diet (LPD) model of IUGR at three key time points of alveolarization process. IUGR and control rat pups had been studied for each time point considered: on postnatal day 4 (P4) before beginning of the alveolarization process, on P10, peak of alveolarization process and on P21 at the end of it. A twelve chip study using total RNA extracted from 14 whole lungs intrauterine growth restricted rat pups compared to 15 controls. RNA was extracted at three key time points of alveolarization in postnatal life. RNA was pooled by groups of 2 ou 3 before analysis.

Project description:As a group, fibroproliferative disorders of the lung, liver, kidney, heart, vasculature and integument are common, progressive and refractory to therapy. They can emerge following toxic insults, but are frequently idiopathic. Their enigmatic propensity to resist therapy and progress to organ failure has focused attention on the myofibroblast – the primary effector of the fibroproliferative response. A central unanswered question is whether these myofibroblasts have acquired a distinct pathological phenotype - or whether they are normal myofibroblasts with a pathological phenotype that depends upon residing in a sea of pro-fibrotic cytokines and an abnormal extracellular matrix. Using a systems approach to study this question in a prototype fibrotic disease, Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF); here we show organized changes in the gene expression pathway of primary lung myofibroblasts that persist for up to 9 sub-cultivations in vitro. When comparing IPF and control myofibroblasts in a 3-dimensional type I collagen matrix, more genes differed at the level of ribosome recruitment than at the level of transcript abundance, indicating pathological translational control as a major characteristic of IPF myofibroblasts. To determine the effect of matrix state on translational control, myofibroblasts were permitted to contract the matrix. Ribosome recruitment in control myofibroblasts was relatively stable. In contrast, IPF cells manifested large alterations in the ribosome recruitment pattern. Pathological studies suggest an epithelial origin for IPF myofibroblasts through the epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT). In accord with this, we found systems-level indications for TGF?b -driven EMT as one source of IPF myofibroblasts.

Project description:Fibrotic disease is caused by persistently activated fibroblasts, known as myofibroblasts, that continuously deposit extracellular matrix and fail to de-activate after injury resolution. There are currently no treatments for fibrotic disease; our study addresses the mechanisms whereby myofibroblasts persist in fibrotic tissues such as diseased cardiac valves. We exploit photo-softening hydrogels as synthetic valve tissue mimics and valve fibroblasts as a model to study how stiffness controls pathological myofibroblast activation and their persistence. We show that persistent myofibroblasts have condensed chromatin structure with genome-wide alterations and that this is associated with stabilization of the actin cytoskeleton. Disconnecting the nucleus from the cytoskeleton prevents chromatin condensation and myofibroblast persistence. Notably, myofibroblasts in patients with aortic valve stenosis display a condensed chromatin structure compared to myofibroblasts in a healthy patient, similar to the difference observed between cultured persistent myofibroblasts and transient myofibroblasts. Collectively, our results reveal that nuclear mechanosensing leads to distinct chromatin signatures in persistent myofibroblasts and that this novel cellular mechanism is likely relevant to human fibrotic disease.

Project description:All samples are conditioned media from primary cultured human gastric myofibroblasts, derived from either carcinoma tissue, or adjacent non cancerous tissue. In each experiment the cancer-derived myofibroblasts are compared against the non-cancer derived myofibroblasts from the same patient. All of the experiments were samples from Patient 1, except for 648, which is from Patient 2. SILAC labelling in each case is; 567 - Methionine COFRADIC; Cancer-derived = Heavy, Non-cancer = Light 575 - N-terminal COFRADIC; Cancer-derived = Heavy, Non-cancer = Light 646 - Cancer-derived = Light, Non-cancer = Heavy 647 - Non-cancer = Heavy, Non-cancer = Light (same cell line labelled twice to create a control experiment) 648 - Cancer-derived = Heavy, Non-cancer = Light

Project description:Cancer-associated fibroblasts are a major component of the cancer stroma. Here we focus on gastric cancer associated myofibroblasts (CAMs). CAMs secrete factors that increase the migration, invasion and proliferation of cancer cells when compared to adjacent tissue myofibroblasts (ATMs), or normal tissue myofibroblasts (NTMs). In this study we identified and quantified the proteins secreted by normoxic (21% O2) and hypoxic (1% O2) myofibroblast cells.

Project description:The mesenchyme consists of heterogeneous cell populations that support neighboring structures and are integral to intercellular signaling. Despite such importance, mesenchymal cell types are poorly defined morphologically and molecularly, lagging behind their counterparts in the epithelial, endothelial, and immune lineages. Leveraging single-cell RNA-seq, three-dimensional imaging, and lineage tracing, we classify the mouse lung mesenchyme into three proximal-distal axes that are associated with the endothelium, epithelium, and interstitium, respectively. From proximal to distal, (1) the vascular axis includes vascular smooth muscle cells and pericytes that transition as arterioles and venules ramify into capillaries; (2) the epithelial axis includes airway smooth muscle cells and two populations of myofibroblasts: ductal myofibroblasts, surrounding alveolar ducts and marked by CDH4, HHIP, and LGR6, which persist post-alveologenesis, and alveolar myofibroblasts, surrounding alveoli and marked by high expression of PDGFRA, which undergo developmental apoptosis; (3) the interstitial axis, residing between the epithelial and vascular trees and sharing a newly-identified marker MEOX2, includes fibroblasts in the bronchovascular bundle and the alveolar interstitium that are marked by IL33 and Wnt2, respectively. Single-cell imaging reveals distinct morphology of each mesenchymal cell population. This classification provides a conceptual and experimental framework applicable to other organs.

Project description:Fibrosis due to extracellular matrix (ECM) secretion from myofibroblasts complicates many chronic liver diseases causing scarring and organ failure. Integrin-dependent interaction with scar ECM promotes profibrotic features. This microarray study was performed to clarify the role of integrin beta-1 (Itgb1) in profibrotic myofibroblasts.

Project description:Lung alveolarization is a complex process that involves interactions between several cell types and leads to considerable increase in gas-exchange surface area. The step designated secondary septation includes elastogenesis from interstitial fibroblasts. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of fibroblast gene expression that underly secondary septation, and identified numerous genes that undergo signficant changes in expression Experiment Overall Design: Rat lung fibroblats were extemporaneously isolated at successive stages of postnatal development that flank the septation period for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. Three biological replicates from three different litters were prepared for each time point.
