Allergen-specific mRNA-lipid nanoparticle therapy for prevention and treatment of experimental allergy in mice

ABSTRACT: Allergic diseases have reached epidemic proportions globally, calling attention to the need for better treatment and preventive approaches. Herein, we developed allergen-encoding messenger RNA (mRNA) lipid nanoparticle (LNP) strategies for both therapy and prevention of allergic responses. Immunization with allergen-encoded mRNA-LNPs modulated T cell differentiation, inhibiting the generation of T helper type 2 (Th2) and type 17 (Th17) cells upon allergen exposure in experimental asthma models induced by ovalbumin (OVA), and naturally occurring house dust mite (HDM) and the major HDM allergen Der p1. Allergen-specific mRNA-LNP treatment attenuated clinicopathology in both preventive and established allergy models, including reduction in eosinophilia, mucus production, and airway hypersensitivity, while enhancing production of allergen-specific IgG antibodies and maintaining low IgE levels. Additionally, allergen-specific mRNA-LNP vaccines in mice elicited a CD8+CD38+KLRG- T cell response as seen following SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccination in human, underscoring a conserved immune mechanism across species, regardless of the mRNA-encoded protein. Notably, mRNA-LNP vaccination in combination with an mTOR inhibitor reduced the CD8+ T cell response without affecting the vaccine-induced anti-allergic effect in the preventive model of asthma. This technology renders allergen-specific mRNA-LNP therapy as a promising approach for prevention and treatment of allergic diseases.

Overexpression of Dimethylarginine Dimethylaminohydrolase 1 Attenuates Airway Inflammation in Mouse Models of Asthma

Project description:Levels of asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA), an endogenous inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase, are increased in lung, sputum, exhaled breath condensate and plasma samples from asthma patients. ADMA is metabolized primarily by dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase 1 (DDAH1) and DDAH2. We determined the effect of DDAH1 overexpression on development of allergic inflammation in mouse models of asthma. Wild type and DDAH1-transgenic mice were challenged with PBS or house dust mite (HDM). Airway inflammation was assessed by bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) total and differential cell counts. Gene expression in lungs was determined by RNA-Seq and RT-quantitative PCR (qPCR). The expression of DDAH1 and DDAH2 was decreased in the lungs of mice following HDM exposure. Transgenic overexpression of DDAH1 resulted in decreased BAL total cell and eosinophil numbers following HDM exposure. Total IgE levels in serum and BAL fluid were decreased in HDM-exposed DDAH1-transgenic mice compared to HDM-exposed wild type mice. RNA-Seq results showed downregulation of genes in inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) signaling pathway in PBS-treated DDAH1 transgenic mice versus PBS-treated wild type mice and downregulation of genes in IL-13/FOXA2 signaling pathway in HDM-treated DDAH1 transgenic mice versus HDM-treated wild type mice. Our findings suggest that decreased expression of DDAH1 in airway epithelial cells may contribute to allergic asthma and overexpression of DDAH1 attenuates allergen-induced airway inflammation through modulation of Th2 responses. mRNA profiles of WT and DDAH1-transgenic mice treated with PBS or house dust mite (HDM).

Targeting mitochondrial reactive oxygen species alleviates allergic airway disease in a mouse model of obese allergic asthma

Project description:Obesity is associated with severe, difficult to control asthma, and increased airway oxidative stress. Mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (mROS) are an important source of oxidative stress leading us to hypothesize that targeting mROS in obese allergic asthma might be an effective treatment strategy. Using a mouse model of house dust mite (HDM) induced allergic airway disease in mice fed a low- (LFD) or high-fat diet (HFD), and the mitochondrial antioxidant MitoQuinone (MitoQ); we investigated the effects of obesity and mROS on airway inflammation, remodelling and airway hyperreactivity (AHR). HDM induces airway inflammation, remodelling and hyperreactivity in both lean and obese mice. Obese allergic mice showed increased lung tissue eotaxin levels, airway tissue eosinophilia and AHR when compared to lean allergic mice. MitoQ reduced markers of airway inflammation, remodelling and hyperreactivity in both lean and obese allergic mice, and tissue eosinophilia in obeseHDM mice. mROS regulates cell signalling by protein oxidation of multiple downstream targets: MitoQ reduced HDM-induced cysteine-sulfenylation of several proteins including those involved in the unfolded protein response (UPR). In summary, mROS mediates the development of allergic airway disease and hence MitoQ might be effective for the treatment for asthma, and specific features of obese asthma.

Single-cell transcriptomic analysis of allergen-specific T cells in allergy and asthma [scRNA-Seq]

Project description:CD4+ helper T cells (TH) and regulatory T cells (Treg) that respond to common allergens play an important role in driving and dampening airway inflammation in patients with asthma. Until recently, direct, unbiased molecular analysis of allergen-reactive TH and Treg cells has not been possible. To better understand the diversity of these T cell subsets in allergy and asthma, we analyzed the single-cell transcriptome of ~50,000 house dust mite (HDM) allergen-reactive TH cells and Treg cells from asthmatics with HDM allergy and from three control groups: asthmatics without HDM allergy and non-asthmatics with and without HDM allergy. Our analyses show that HDM allergen-reactive TH and Treg cells are highly heterogeneous, and certain subsets are quantitatively and qualitatively different in subjects with HDM-reactive asthma. The number of interleukin (IL)-9 expressing HDM-reactive TH cells is greater in asthmatics compared with non-asthmatics with HDM allergy, and display enhanced pathogenic properties. More HDM-reactive Th and Treg cells expressing the interferon-response signature (THIFNR and TregIFNR) are present in asthmatics without HDM allergy compared with those with HDM allergy. In cells from these subsets (THIFNR and TregIFNR), expression of TNFSF10 was enriched; its product, TRAIL, dampens activation of TH cells. These findings suggest that the THIFNR and TregIFNR subsets may dampen allergic responses, which may help explain why only some people develop TH2 responses to nearly ubiquitous allergens.

Genome wide DNA methylation and Hydroxymethylation of F1 mouse lung prenatally exposed to house dust mite

Project description:We used a mouse model of allergic lung disease to examine the effects of pre- and perinatal house dust mite (HDM) allergen exposure on offspring lung phenotypic and transcriptional outcomes. We showed that maternal HDM exposure (F0) acts synergistically with adult HDM exposure, leading to enhanced airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) and lung inflammation when compared to mice exposed solely in adulthood. To examine the role of epigenetic inheritance of asthma susceptibility induced by maternal HDM exposure, we utilized a genome-wide MeDIP-seq and hMeDIP-seq analysis to identify genes differentially methylated (DMG) and hydroxymethylated (DHG), and their association with the enhanced AHR. In addition, we validated the relationship between DNA methylation and mRNA expression of the DMGs and DHGs in the male progenies.

A regulatory CD9+ B cell subset controls HDM-induced allergic airway inflammation

Project description:Background: A specific subset of regulatory IL-10 producing B cells has been extensively studied in autoimmune and inflammatory pathologies. These cells are able to constrain exacerbated inflammation by inhibiting T cell mediated responses and maturation of antigen presenting cells. In allergic diseases, observations that increase of regulatory B cells is necessary for allergen tolerance suggest that development of allergic asthma would be associated with a defect in the regulatory B cells compartment. Objective: We sought to (i) characterize regulatory IL-10+ regulatory B cell subset in Balb/c mice by microarray and flow cytometry and (ii) investigate their regulatory capacity in vivo in a house dust mite model of allergic asthma. Results: We identified an IL-10 producing B cells subset able to control T cell proliferation in vitro in both control and asthmatic mice. This subset is decreased in allergic mice. IL-10+ Breg cells express high levels of CD9 and upregulate CD70 and CD73 after activation. Expression of CD9 allows identifying more than 50% of Bregs. Interestingly CD9+ B cells inhibit TH2-TH17 allergic airway inflammation in vivo after adoptive transfer in an IL-10 dependent manner. Conclusions: Herein, we demonstrate that induction of allergic asthma dampens the generation of Bregs contributing to exacerbated airway inflammation. We identified a distinct CD9+ Breg-cell population decreased in lung of HDM mice and able to control asthma and allergic airway inflammation by producing IL-10 after adoptive transfer. This study points B cells as an interesting therapeutic target in allergic asthma.

Transcriptional changes in alveolar macrophages from adults with asthma after intrabronchial allergen challenge.

Project description:In recent years, alveolar macrophages (AM) have been shown to play an important role in environmental allergen-induced airway inflammation in asthma. In this study, we investigated the effect of house dust mite (HDM) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) challenge on the transcriptome of AM from patients with mild asthma. We have shown previously that intrabronchial HDM/LPS challenge induces a mixed eosinophilic and neutrophil airways inflammation in asthma patients(5). Therefore, we hypothesize that exposure of AM to HDM/LPS would upregulate genes associated with eosinophil and neutrophil signaling. AM were harvested from the bronchoalveolar fluid of 8 asthma patients who were challenged with either saline in one lung segment or HDM/LPS in the contralateral lung segment. We performed RNA sequencing and found over 1000 significantly different expressed genes following HDM/LPS challenge. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first investigation to examine gene expression profiles in AM from asthma patients challenged with HDM and LPS in vivo. Using a well-controlled study design allowing paired analysis of saline and HDM/LPS effects in the same patient, we identified different transcriptional profiles in AM as consequence of local exposure to HDM and LPS. These findings may provide a better understanding of AM functions in (exacerbations of) allergic asthma.

Allergen induces pulmonary neuroendocrine hyperplasia in asthma

Project description:Asthma is characterized by exacerbated responses to environmental triggers such as allergen. While pulmonary neuroendocrine cells (PNECs), a rare population of airway epithelial cells, are essential for amplifying allergen-induced asthma response, how they are regulated to achieve this role remains poorly understood. Here we show that in the adult mouse airway, inactivation of achaete-scute like 1 (Ascl1) gene in PNECs led to loss of these cells. Intriguingly, exposure of these mutants to house dust mites (HDM), a common allergen, led to reappearance of PNECs. Similarly, exposure of wild-type mice to HDM led to PNEC hyperplasia, a result of proliferation of existing PNECs and transdifferentiation from club cells. Single cell RNAseq experiments revealed PNEC heterogeneity, including the appearance of an allergen-induced PNEC subtype. Intracellular Notch1 is downregulated in HDM-treated airway, and treatment by Notch agonist prevented PNEC hyperplasia. These findings together suggest that HDM-induced PNEC hyperplasia may contribute to exacerbated asthma response.

Integrating Proteomes for Lung Tissue and Lavage Reveals Pathways that Integrate Responses in Allergen-Challenged Mice

Project description:To capture interplay between biological pathways we analyzed the proteome from matched lung tissue and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) of individual allergen-naive and house dust mite (HDM)-challenged BALB/c mice, a model of allergic asthma. Unbiased label-free LC-MS/MS analysis quantified 2,675 proteins from tissue and BALF of allergen-naive and HDM-exposed mice. In comparing the four datasets we found significantly greater diversity in proteins between lung tissue and BALF than the changes induced by HDM challenge. The biological pathways enriched after allergen exposure were compartment-dependent. Lung tissue featured innate immune responses and oxidative stress, while BALF most strongly revealed changes in metabolism. We combined lung tissue and BALF proteomes, which principally highlighted oxidation reduction (redox) pathways, a finding influenced chiefly by the lung tissue dataset. Integrating lung and BALF proteomes also uncovered new proteins and biological pathways that may mediate lung tissue and BALF interactions after allergen challenge, for example, B Cell Receptor signaling. We demonstrate that enhanced insight is fostered when different biological compartments from the lung are investigated in parallel. Integration of proteomes from lung tissue and BALF compartments reveals new information about protein networks in the response to environmental challenge and interaction between intracellular and extracellular process.

IL-22 inhibits allergic airway inflammation in house dust mite-induced asthma models

Project description:While the pathogenesis of asthma is mainly orchestrated by antigen-specific Th2 cells and their cytokines, recent findings indicate the involvement of other subsets of helper T cells including Th17 cells. Previous studies have shown that IL-22, one of Th17 cell-related cytokines, plays multiple roles in regulating allergic airway inflammation; however, the mechanism underlying the Il-22-mediated regulation remains unclear. Here, we show that allergic airway inflammation upon intratracheal administration of house dust mite extract (HDM), a representative allergen, were exacerbated in IL-22-deficient mice. To address the molecular mechanisms by which IL-22 inhibits the development of HDM-induced allergic airway inflammation, we next performed an unbiased comprehensive screening of genes induced by IL-22 administration in the lung by RNA-seq analysis.
