UPM Nascent transcription trends improves functional annotations of SNPs

ABSTRACT: Asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are influenced by interactions between genetic background and environmental exposures such as air pollutants, yet the mechanisms linking genetic variation and pollutant response remain poorly understood. We used nascent RNA run-on sequencing to characterize transcriptional responses of lung cells exposed to wood smoke particles, urban particulate matter, and Afghan dust particles. These datasets provide the first characterization of the nascent transcriptional response to urban particulate matter in primary lung cells and reveal both shared and pollutant-specific regulatory dynamics. Integration with regulatory network inference and genetic association data enables prioritization of noncoding variants and candidate regulatory mechanisms linking environmental exposures to lung disease risk.

Air pollutant multiomics improves functional annotation of SNPs associated with lung disease

Project description:Asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are lung diseases strongly influenced by interactions between genetic background and environmental exposures, particularly air pollutants. However, the biological mechanisms by which genetic variation and pollutant exposure impact disease remain poorly understood. Interpretation of genome-wide association studies is limited because most disease-associated variants occur in noncoding regions and are difficult to connect to functional regulatory mechanisms and downstream gene targets. Here, we integrate nascent RNA run-on sequencing with regulatory network inference to identify pollutant-responsive transcriptional regulatory elements and their upstream regulators in lung cells. Using newly generated and published datasets, we analyze multiomics responses to multiple air pollutants, including wood smoke particles, urban particulate matter, and Afghan dust particles. These analyses provide the first characterization of the nascent transcriptional response to urban particulate matter in primary lung cells and reveal both shared and pollutant-specific regulatory dynamics. We then integrate pollutant-responsive regulatory networks with genetic associations for asthma and COPD to prioritize noncoding variants for experimental validation. By linking these variants to candidate transcription factors and target genes, we identify mechanisms through which environmental exposures may interact with noncoding genetic variants to influence disease risk. This framework enables functional interpretation of noncoding variants through environmentally responsive transcriptional networks.

Transcription profiling of mouse SP-C/TNF-Ia mice and their wildtype littermates to investigate the acute effects of particulate matter (EHC-93) inhalation in mice with chronic lung inflammation

Project description:We examined the impact of chronic lung inflammation on the pulmonary transcriptional response to inhaled urban particles. Transcript levels were measured using high density microarrays in total RNA isolated from whole lungs of wildtype and TNF-Î± overexpressing mice exposed by inhalation to particulate matter and euthanized immediately or 24 h post-exposure. Experiment Overall Design: Transgenic SP-C/TNF-Î± mice and their wildtype littermates were exposed by inhalation to particulate matter (0, 42 mg/m3 EHC-93) for 4 h and euthanized immediately or 24 h post-exposure (n=5 per treatment per time point, 40 animals total). Agilent 22K oligonucleotide microarrays were used to examine transcript levels in whole lung RNA. Stratagene Universal Mouse RNA was used as a reference.

Ambient Pollution Related Reprogramming of the Human Small Airway Epithelial Transcriptome

Project description:Epidemiological studies have demonstrated that exposure to particulate matter (PM) ambient pollution has adverse effects on lung health, exacerbated by cigarette smoking. Fine airborne particles <2.5 µm (PM2.5) are the most harmful of the urban pollutants, and the most closely linked to respiratory disease. Based on the knowledge that the small airway epithelium (SAE) plays a central role in pathogenesis of smoking-related lung disease, we hypothesized that elevated PM2.5 levels are associated with dysregulation of SAE gene expression.

Integrated Genomics Approaches Identify Mediators of Transcriptional and Epigenetic Responses to Afghan Desert Particulate Matter in Small Airway Epithelial Cells (PRO-Seq)

Project description:New respiratory diseases in personnel deployed to Southwest Asia after September 11th raise major concerns about the impacts of airborne particulate matter. Although regulations exist, the knowledge about how particulates influence disease states is limited, precluding the appropriate recognition, prevention and treatment of deployment-related lung diseases. We applied two genomics assays, Precision Run-on sequencing (PRO-seq) and the assay for transposase accessible chromatin with sequencing (ATAC-seq), to characterize the small airway epithelial cell response to Afghan desert particulate matter (APM).

Exposure to particulate matter (PM) pollution has direct impacts on the respiratory organs. However, the molecular alterations underlying PM-induced pulmonary injury remain unclear. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effects and pathomechanism of PM in lungs.

Project description:The rat model was previously reported as whole-body exposure to traffic-related PM1 pollutant (PM1 group), high-efficiency particulate air-filtered gaseous pollutant (GAS group), and clean air control (CTL group) for 3 and 6 months. We performed lung function and histological examinations as well as quantitative proteomics analysis to unravel the structural and molecular changes in rat lungs upon sub-chronic and chronic exposures of PM1. Our study illustrated earlier lung injury prior to lung function decline and the underlying pathomechanism associated with traffic-related PM1-induced lung injury.

Transcriptional response of Photinia x fraseri to high levels of air particulate matter

Project description:This study aimed to shed light on the gene regulatory networks underlying plant leaf responses to air particulate matter. Our investigation focused on shrubs of Photinia x fraseri grown in pots located in two contrasting areas: a highly polluted traffic road and rural countryside within the same town (Altopascio, Lucca, Italy). RNA-seq data were related to leaf morphological traitsand air particulate matter, allowing to identify key players in modulating the capabilities of plants to phyllo-remediate high air particulate matter levels in urban environment.
