Project description:Hypoxia may cause pulmonary and brain edema, pulmonary hypertension, aberrant metabolism and early mortality. To better understand pathological processes associated with hypoxia, we examined gene expression in Chuvash polycythemia (CP) blood mononuclear cells. CP is a congenital disorder of up-regulated hypoxic response at normoxia wherein VHLR200W homozygosity leads to elevated hypoxia inducible factor (HIF)-1 and HIF-2 levels, thromboses, pulmonary hypertension, lower systemic blood pressure (SBP) and increased mortality. VHLR200W homozygotes are often treated by phlebotomy resulting in iron deficiency, allowing us to evaluate an interaction of augmented hypoxia sensing with iron deficiency. Expression was profiled for 8 VHLR200W homozygotes (CP21, CP23, CP26_2, CP37, CP40, CP43, CP45, CP46) and 17 VHL wildtype individuals (CP48, CP49, CP50, CP51, CP52, CP53, CP55, CP57, CP58, CP59, CP61, CP62, CP63, CP65, CP66, CP67_2, CP68), matched for normal iron status as reflected in serum ferritin concentration. Additional studies including 16 VHLR200W homozygotes with low ferritin (CP22, CP24, CP25, CP28, CP29, CP30, CP31, CP32, CP34, CP35, CP36, CP39, CP41, CP42, CP44, CP47) indicated that iron deficiency generally affects the induction effect of VHLR200W. Two wildtype individuals (CP54, CP56) had no serum ferritin concentration record and two wildtype individuals (CP60, CP64) were defined as iron deficiency subject, which were not included in further expression analysis.

Project description:Chronic hypoxia induces pulmonary vascular remodeling and pulmonary hypertension (PH). While it is established that transcription factors, hypoxia-inducible factors (HIF-1α/HIF-2α) activate gene programs that drive hypoxia-induced PH, the mechanism of HIF-1/2 activation is less clear. Here, we report that carboxylterminus of Hsp70-interacting protein (CHIP or Stub1) modulates HIF-1α and HIF-2α transcription rather than reducing their stability. Knocking-down Stub1 reduced hypoxic activation of HIF-1α mRNA, protein, and activity while enhancing hypoxic induction of HIF-2α mRNA, protein, and target genes in pulmonary vascular cells. Mechanistically, CBP/p300-mediated acetylation of lysine (K287) inactivates the ubiquitin ligase activity of Stub1 and triggers its translocation from the cytoplasm into the nucleus. There, it recognizes the HIF promoter and hypoxia response elements (HREs) in target genes. Expression of Stub1-K287Q mutant (mimicking acetylation) enhanced hypoxia-induced HIF-1α expression, while acetyl-deficient Stub1-K287R mutant had the opposite effect on HIF-α but enhanced hypoxia-induced HIF-2α transcriptional activity. Endothelial-Stub1 transgenic mice tolerated chronic hypoxia better, had less pulmonary vascular remodeling, reduced pulmonary vascular resistance, and greater cardioprotection. Thus, Stub1 nuclear translocation enhances hypoxic induction of HIF-1α activity while suppressing deleterious effects of HIF-2α. These observations indicate that nuclear-Stub1 synergizes with HIF-1α to promote transcriptional responses and antagonizes HIF2α-driven PH in chronic hypoxia.

Project description:NOX1 is a catalytic subunit of nonphagocytic NADPH oxidase, mainly localized to smooth muscle cells in the vasculature. We investigated the pathology underlying the pulmonary arterial hypertension-like phenotype demonstrated in mice deficient in the Nox1 gene (Nox1-KO). Spontaneous enlargement and hypertrophy of the right ventricle, accompanied by hypertrophy of pulmonary vessels, were demonstrated in Nox1-KO at 9-18 weeks of age. Since an increased number of ?-smooth muscle actin-positive vessels was observed in Nox1-KO, pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells (PASMCs) were isolated and characterized by flow cytometry and TUNEL staining. In Nox1-/Y PASMC, the number of apoptotic cells was significantly reduced without any change in the expression of endothelin-1, and hypoxia-inducible factors HIF-1a and HIF-2a, factors implicated in the pathogenesis of PAH. microRNA expression profiling of mouse pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells in wild-type and NOX1-KO was analyzed. Pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells were harvested form 3 mice.

Project description:Journal : Blood. 2009 Jul 9;114(2):469-77. Epub 2009 May 13. Title : Endothelial deletion of hypoxia-inducible factor-2alpha (HIF-2alpha) alters vascular function and tumor angiogenesis. Authors : Skuli N, Liu L, Runge A, Wang T, Yuan L, Patel S, Iruela-Arispe L, Simon MC, Keith B. Abstract : Hypoxia-inducible factor-2alpha (HIF-2alpha) is highly expressed in embryonic vascular endothelial cells (ECs) and activates the expression of target genes whose products modulate vascular function and angiogenesis. In this report, we describe a genetic model designed to test the physiologic consequences of deleting HIF-2alpha in murine endothelial cells. Surprisingly, mice with HIF-2alpha-deficient ECs developed normally but displayed a variety of phenotypes, including increased vessel permeability, aberrant endothelial cell ultrastructure, and pulmonary hypertension. Moreover, these animals exhibited defective tumor angiogenesis associated with increased hypoxic stress and tumor cell apoptosis. Immortalized HIF-2alpha-deficient ECs displayed decreased adhesion to extracellular matrix proteins and expressed reduced levels of transcripts encoding fibronectin, integrins, endothelin B receptor, angiopoietin 2, and delta-like ligand 4 (Dll4). Together, these data identify unique cell-autonomous functions for HIF-2alpha in vascular endothelial cells. Keywords: Murine lung endothelial cell study Cnt1,2 and 3 (Hif-2a floxed/floxed) cells were subjected to 0.5% oxygen treatment for 16hrs and KO1,2 and 3 (Hif-2a knockout) cells were subjected to 0.5% oxygen treatment for 16hrs.

Project description:High-altitude pulmonary hypertension (HAPH) is a severe and progressive disease caused by chronic hypoxia and subsequent pulmonary vascular remodeling. No cure is currently available owing to an incomplete understanding about vascular remodeling. It is believed that hypoxia-induced diseases can be prevented by treating hypoxia. Thus, this study aimed to determine whether daily short-duration reoxygenation at sea level attenuates pulmonary hypertension under high-altitude hypoxia. To this end, a simulated 5,000-m hypoxia rat model was used to evaluate the effect of short-duration reoxygenation. Results show that intermittent, not continuous, short-duration reoxygenation effectively attenuates hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension. The mechanisms underlining the protective effects involved that intermittent, short-duration reoxygenation prevented functional and structural remodeling of pulmonary arteries and proliferation, migration, and phenotypic conversion of pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells under hypoxia. The specific genes or potential molecular pathways responsible for mediating the protective effects were also characterised by RNA sequencing.This study is novel in revealing a new potential method in preventing high-altitude pulmonary hypertension. It gives insights into the selection and optimisation of oxygen supply schemes in high-altitude areas.

Project description:Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a progressive fatal disease that is characterized by pathological pulmonary artery remodeling, in which endothelial cell (EC) dysfunction is critically involved. We herein describe a previously unknown role of endothelial angiocrine in pulmonary hypertension. By searching for genes highly expressed in lung microvascular ECs, we identified inhibin--A (INHBA) as an angiocrine factor produced by pulmonary capillaries. We found that excess production of INHBA by ECs impairs the endothelial function in an autocrine manner by functioning as activin A (ActA). Mechanistically, ActA induces bone morphogenetic protein receptor type 2 (BMPRII) internalization and targeting to lysosomes for degradation, resulting in BMPRII signal deficiency in ECs. When endothelial ActA-BMPRII link is overdriven in mice, hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension was exacerbated, whereas conditional knockout of INHBA in ECs prevents the progression of pulmonary hypertension. These data collectively indicate a critical role for the dysregulated endothelial ActA-BMPRII link in the progression of pulmonary hypertension, and thus endothelial INHBA/ActA is an attractive pharmacotherapeutic target for the treatment of PAH.
