Project description:Atherosclerosis is closely associated with oxidative stress, characterized by the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). ROS can serve as a polarization queue depending on localization. We observed that predominantly foam cells elicit high mitochondrial ROS burden in human and mouse atherosclerotic lesions. Our results revealed that STAT5 inhibition predominantly affected Trem2hiGpnbmhi foam cell cluster.

Project description:Study of the effect of cadmium on KO and overexpressor mutants of glycolate oxidase-GOX2, which is one of the main sources of H202 from peroxisomes. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) act as secondary messengers that can be sensed by specific redox sensitive proteins responsible for the activation of signal transduction culminating in altered gene expression. ROS, which are involved in different activities, elicit a wide range of protein modifications, which might elicit different gene expressions. The subcellular site, in which modifications in ROS/oxidation state occur, can also act as a specific cellular redox network signal. The chemical identity of ROS and their subcellular origin actually is a specific imprint on the transcriptome response. In recent years, a number of transcriptomic studies related to altered ROS metabolism in plant peroxisomes have been carried out. In this study, we made a meta-analysis of these transcriptomic findings to identify common transcriptional footprints for plant peroxisomal-dependent signaling at early and later time points. These footprints highlight the regulation of various metabolic pathways and gene families, which are also found in plant responses to several abiotic stresses. Major peroxisomal-dependent genes are associated with protein and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) protection at later stages of stress while, at earlier stages, these genes are related to hormone biosynthesis and signaling regulation. Further, in silico analyses allowed us to assign human orthologs to some of the peroxisomal-dependent genes, which are mainly associated with different cancer types pathologies. Peroxisomal footprints provide a valuable resource for assessing and supporting key peroxisomal functions in cellular metabolism under control and stress conditions across species.

Project description:In atherosclerosis, several immune cells are involved in plaque formation. Foam cell formation is a major cellular process in atherosclerotic lesion. It is important to understand which cells participate in foam cell formation. To characterize the immune cells and foam cells in atherosclerotic aorta, we performed single cell RNA sequencing of aortic CD45+ leukocytes from Ldlr-/- mice and foamy cells from ApoE-/- mice. The single cell RNA-seq analyses revealed the heterogeneity of aortic macrophages and foam cells in atherosclerotic aorta.

Project description:The accumulation of lipid-laden macrophages (foam cells) in the arterial wall is a crucial early step in atherosclerotic plaque development. Modified low-density lipoprotein (LDL) is the primary cholesterol source for foam cells, taken up in an unregulated manner through scavenger receptors. This type of cells exhibit reduced migratory capacity while producing elevated levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines, thereby promoting inflammation and plaque progression. Still our understanding of the transcriptomic changes during macrophage-to-foam cell conversion remains limited. In this experiment, we aimed to identify genes responsible for the accumulation of cholesterol in human monocyte-derived macrophages exposed to modified and native LDL. The monocyte samples collected from healthy individuals were purified and exposed to modified and native LDLs obtained from plasm of atherosclerotic patients. RNA extracted after 24h of incubation was sequenced with polyA selection. The resulting data was normalised with limma and undergone DEG analysis followed by upstream analysis workflow with TRANSPATH and TRANSFAC databases to discover master regulator molecules.

Project description:Cholesterol biosynthetic intermediates such as lanosterol and desmosterol are emergent immune regulators of macrophages in response to inflammatory stimuli or lipid overloading, respectively. However, the participation of these sterols in regulating macrophage functions in the physiological context of atherosclerosis, an inflammatory disease driven by the accumulation of cholesterol-laden macrophages in the artery wall, has remained elusive. Here we report that desmosterol, the most abundant cholesterol biosynthetic intermediate in human coronary artery lesions, plays an essential role during atherogenesis, serving as a key molecule integrating cholesterol homeostasis and immune responses in macrophages. Depletion of desmosterol in myeloid cells by overexpression of 3β-hydroxysterol Δ24-reductase (DHCR24), the enzyme that catalyzes conversion of desmosterol to cholesterol, promotes the progression of atherosclerosis. Single cell transcriptomics in isolated CD45+CD11b+ cells from atherosclerotic plaques demonstrate that depletion of desmosterol increases interferon (IFN) responses and attenuates the expression of anti-inflammatory macrophage markers. Lipidomic and transcriptomic analysis of in vivo macrophage foam cells demonstrate that desmosterol is a major endogenous liver X receptor (LXR) ligand involved in LXR/RXR activation and thus, macrophage foam cell formation. Decreased desmosterol accumulation in mitochondria promotes macrophage mito-ROS production and NLRP3-dependent inflammasome activation. Deficiency of NLRP3 or ASC rescues the increased inflammasome activity and atherogenesis observed in desmosterol-depleted macrophages. Altogether, these findings underscore the critical function of desmosterol in the atherosclerotic plaque to dampen inflammation, by integrating with macrophage cholesterol metabolism and inflammatory activation, and protecting from disease progression.

Project description:Macrophages in atherosclerotic aorta are major population in lesion and contributes to lesion formation by becoming foam cells. To investigate in determine diversity of arterial macrophage, we extracted aorta intima resident macrophages (CD11c+ MHC II+ CD64+ macrophages from C57BL/6 mice, as well as adventitia macrophages from atherosclerotic aorta (which complement our prior submissions of foamy and non-foamy intima macrophage). Our data identify unique gene expression signatures for these different macrophage populations in the aorta.

Project description:To mimic the effect of ROS in contributing to ageing process in immune cells of PBMC. The PBMC cells were harvested from old human subjects (>50) and induced with H2O2 during 3 hour and 6 hour. The CEL file were normalized using RMA methods. We used microarray to explore the gene expression profiling before and after ROS. Gene related to cell cycle, apoptosis, metabolism and signal transduction were differentially expressed after inducing with H2O2 in compared to baseline.

Project description:Formation of foam cell macrophages (FCMs), which sequester extracellular modified lipids, is a key event in atherosclerosis. How lipid loading affects macrophage phenotype is controversial, with evidence suggesting either pro- or anti-inflammatory consequences. To investigate this further, we compared the transcriptomes of foamy and non-foamy macrophages (NFMs) that accumulate in the subcutaneous granulomas of fed-fat ApoE null mice and normal chow fed wild-type mice in vivo. Consistent with previous studies, LXR/RXR pathway genes were significantly over-represented among the genes up-regulated in foam cell macrophages. Unexpectedly, the hepatic fibrosis pathway, associated with platelet derived growth factor and transforming growth factor-? action, was also over-represented. Several collagen polypeptides and proteoglycan core proteins as well as connective tissue growth factor and fibrosis-related FOS and JUN transcription factors were up-regulated in foam cell macrophages. Increased expression of several of these genes was confirmed at the protein level in foam cell macrophages from subcutaneous granulomas and in atherosclerotic plaques. Moreover, phosphorylation and nuclear translocation of SMAD2, which is downstream of several transforming growth factor-? family members, was also detected in foam cell macrophages. We conclude that foam cell formation in vivo leads to a pro-fibrotic macrophage phenotype, which could contribute to plaque stability, especially in early lesions that have few vascular smooth muscle cells. Samples (n=4/group): Foam cell macrophages (FCM) isolated from inflammatory sponges placed in ApoE null mice fed a high-fat diet (n=4), non-foamy macrophages (NFM) isolated from inflammatory sponges placed in control mice fed a normal diet (n=4).
