Project description:Aging and diabetes exert a disruptive wound healing process. We use single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) data from palatal oral wounds in young, aged and diabetic mice to investigate immune and stromal cells heterogeneity to understand their role in wound repair.

Project description:The oral gingival barrier is a constantly stimulated and dynamic environment where homeostasis is often disrupted, resulting in inflammatory periodontal diseases. Type 2 diabetes (T2D), a risk factor for periodontitis, has been reported to be associated with barrier dysfunction, but the effect and underlying mechanism are inconclusive. Herein, we performed single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) of gingiva from leptin receptor-deficient (db/db) mice to understand the heterogeneity of gingival barrier in the context of T2D. Periodontal health of control mice is characterized by populations of Krt14+-expressing epithelial cells and Col1a1+-fibroblasts mediating immune homeostasis primarily through the enrichment of innate lymphoid cells. The db/db mice exhibit an impaired gingival barrier with spontaneous periodontal bone loss, and a decreased proportion of epithelial/stromal cells. We further observed stromal, particularly fibroblast immune hyperresponsiveness linked to recruitment of myeloid cell populations in gingiva from T2D mice. Analysis of ligand-receptor interaction pairs suggested inflammatory signaling between fibroblasts and myeloid cells, a main driver of diabetes-induced periodontal damage. Moreover, the “Immune-like” stromal cells contributed to gingival Th17/IL-17 hyperresponsiveness in T2D. Our work reveals transcriptional diversity of stromal cells and interaction with innate immune cells in T2D, and uncovers the “immune-like” fibroblast subsets participating in barrier homeostasis at the diabetic gingiva.

Project description:Circulating exosomal microRNAs (miRNAs) are important regulators of gene expression in diabetes mellitus (DM). In this study, we analyzed plasma exosomal miRNAs from normal individuals and patients with PD or PD combined with diabetes (PDDM). Differentially expressed miRNAs were identified using small RNA-seq, and their target genes were validated using bulk RNA-seq datasets from tissues related to diabetic complications. Analysis of target genes revealed biologically meaningful pathways that were consistently involved across affected tissues, providing insight into systemic miRNA–mRNA regulation in diabetes.

Project description:We demonstrate diverse roles of interferonâgamma (IFN-γ) in the induction and regulation of immune-mediated inflammation using a transfer model of autoimmune diabetes. The diabetogenic CD4+BDC2.5 (BDC) T cell clone upon transfer into NOD.scid mice induced destruction of islets of Langerhans leading to diabetes. Administration of a neutralizing antibody to IFN-γ (H22) resulted in long term protection (LTP) from diabetes, with inflammation but persistence of a significant, albeit decreased numbers of β-cells. BDC T cells were a mixture of cells expressing high, intermediate and low levels of the T cell receptor. Clonotype-low BDC T cells were required for LTP. Furthermore, islet infiltrating leukocytes in the LTP mice contained Foxp3+CD4 T cells. Islet inflammation in both diabetic and LTP mice was characterized by heavy infiltration of macrophages. Gene expression profiles indicated that macrophages in diabetic mice were M1-type, while LTP mice contained M2-differentiated. The LTP was abolished if mice were treated with either an antibody depleting CD4 T cells, or a neutralizing antibody to CTLA-4, in this case, only at a late stage. Neutralization of IL-10, TGF-β, GITR or CD25 had no effect. Transfer of only clonotype-high expressing BDC T cells induced diabetes but in contrast, H22 antibodies did not inhibit diabetes. While clonotype high T cells induced diabetes even when IFN-γ was neutralized, paradoxically, there was reduced inflammation and no diabetes if host myeloid cells lacked IFN-γ receptor. Hence, using monoclonal CD4 T cells, IFN-γ can have a wide diversity of roles, depending on the setting of the immune process. Experiment Overall Design: Pancreatic islets were laser-capture microdissected from mice injected with diabetogenic T cells. One cohort of mice also received injections with anti-interfereon gamma monoclonal antibody, which protected those mice from developing diabetes. RNA prepared from islets was amplified and analyzed by Affymetrix GeneChips. Each GeneChip was prepared from RNA pooled from 5 mice at each timepoint. GeneChips were prepared from RNA extracted at different days following injection of T cells. The following days were assayed day 0 (i.e., untreated), day 3 (for diabetic and protected islets), day 4 (diabetic and protected), day 5 (only for protected, as diabetic islets were too edematous to dissect), day 8 (diabetic and protected).

Project description:Purpose: The goal of this study was to characterize the gingival oral barrier immunity of mouse periodontitis gingiva. Method: A silk thread (ligature) was tied wround the mouse maxillary molar. Mouse palatal gingiva was harvested at 1 days after the ligature placement. Gingival cells were harvested and subjected to 10X Genomix scRNA-seq. Cell Ranger processed data were analysed.

Project description:To investigate the differential gene expression by NGS technology in normal and diabetic corneas during Pseudomonas Aeruginosa (PA) infection, corneas from normal and diabetic mouse were gently scratched with 26‐gauge needles, followed by topical inoculation of PA. At 6 h, 1 and 3 days, the corneas were collected and processed for RNA sequencing. Bioinformatic analyses revealed an orderly activation of biological processes starting from pathogen pattern recognition, cytokine/chemokine expression, to innate immune cell infiltration (chemotaxis), and to the activation of TH2 and TH17 immunity in NL corneas. Diabetes disturbs these orderly innate and adaptive immune responses, leading to increased susceptibility and exacerbated progression of microbial keratitis. Completion of the proposed study should reveal novel insights into the molecular and cellular aspects of the proneness of diabetic patients to infection and may enable the development of new therapeutic modalities for enhancing mucosal innate immunity in diabetic patients, and for treating infectious keratitis in general.

Project description:Diabetes mellitus is one of the major independent risk factors for the development of ASCVD. Several studies have reported that diabetes increases inflammatary signaling in different cells, and the cytokines may influence plaque formation, but the signal pathway in circulating cells that links glucose metabolism and lipid metabolism remains unclear.We isolated peritoneal macrophages of diabetic and non-diabetic APOE-/- mice to investigate the diabetes influence on macrophages.
