Project description:Disease-Specific Gene Expression Profiling in Multiple Models of Lung Disease We profiled lung gene expression in 12 mouse models of infection, allergy, and lung injury. A total of 24 transcripts, including many involved in inflammation and immune activation, were differentially expressed in a substantial majority (9 or more) of the models. Expression patterns distinguished three groups of models: (1) bacterial infection (n = 5), with changes in 89 transcripts, including many related to nuclear factor-B signaling, cytokines, chemokines, and their receptors; (2) bleomycin-induced diseases (n = 2), with changes in 53 transcripts, including many related to matrix remodeling and Wnt signaling; and (3) T helper cell type 2 (allergic) inflammation (n = 5), with changes in 26 transcripts, including many encoding epithelial secreted molecules, ion channels, and transporters. 2 color design with a reference pool

Project description:Infection with Nippostrongylus brasiliensis results in persistent changes to the lung environment. Cytokine profiling reveals a sustained increase in both Th1 and Th2 transcripts. Cellular populations of macrophages display an alternative phenotype, with upregulation of YM1, Arg1, Mrc1 as well as Class II MHC. These alternatively activated alveolar macrophages (AAAMs) also increase drastically in number. Subsequent challenge with house dust mite (HDM) Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus shows a reduced allergic phenotype, with decreased fold changes in effector cell cytokines of both the Th1 and Th2 variety indicative of the new regulatory environment established in the lung by helminth infection. Histological examination of the lung environment reveals a significant decrease in eosinophila and reduced mucous production by bronchial epithelial cells.

Project description:Seasonal and pandemic influenza is a cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Most people infected with influenza virus display mild to moderate disease phenotypes and recover within a few weeks. Influenza is known to cause persistent alveolitis in animal models, however little is known about the molecular pathways involved in this phenotype. We challenged C57BL/6 mice with influenza A/PR/8/34 and examined lung pathology and inflammation, as well as transcriptomic and epigenetic changes at 21 to 60 days post-infection. Influenza induced persistent parenchymal lung inflammation, alveolar epithelial metaplasia, and epithelial endoplasmic reticulum stress that were evident following the clearance of virus and resolution of morbidity. Influenza infection induced robust changes in the lung transcriptome including a significant impact on inflammatory and extracellular matrix protein expression.

Project description:Pulmonary fibrosis (PF) is associated with many chronic lung diseases including Systemic sclerosis (SSc), Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) and Cystic Fibrosis (CF) which are characterized by the progressive accumulation of mesenchymal cells and formation of scar tissue. Th2 T cell-derived cytokines including IL-4 and IL-13 have been shown to contribute to inflammation and fibrotic remodeling in multiple tissues. Interleukin-31 (IL-31) is a newly identified cytokine that is predominantly produced by CD4 Th2 T cells, but its signaling receptor IL-31RA is primarily expressed by non-hematopoietic cells. However, the potential role of the IL-31-IL31RA axis in pulmonary inflammation and fibrosis has remained largely unknown. To determine the role of IL-31 signaling in pulmonary fibrosis, wildtype, and IL-31RA knockout mice were treated with bleomycin and measured changes in total lung transcripts using RNA-seq. The total lung transcriptome analysis showed a significant reduction in fibrosis-associated gene transcripts including extracellular matrix and epithelial cell-associated gene networks.

Experiment Overall Design: BALB/c mice were challenged with 500 infectious L3 stage Nippostrongylus brasiliensis larvae subcutaneously. Mice were allowed to resolve their infection, then were sensitized twice with 75 allergy units (AU) of HDM bound to 1mg of alum intraperitoneally. Two challenge doses of 50AU HDM in PBS were given intranasally one day apart, then lungs were harvested at 6, 24 and 72 hours post challenge. Mice were analyzed by histology, immunohistochemistry, real time RT-PCR and affymetrix gene array analysis using full genome chips.

Project description:This longitudinal dataset was generated to assess changes in whole blood gene expression following low dose Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection of Cynomolgus macaques. In addition to changes in mRNA transcript abundance, changes in circulating immune cell populations were also assessed using both complete blood counts (CBC) and using flow cytometry. Disease severity was determined using both clinical diagnosis (active vs. latent) and 18F-flurodeoxyglucose (FDG avidity) by 6 months post-infection. The greatest change in transcriptional activity occurred 20-56 days after infection, when the maximum activity of immune related transcripts was observed. After stratifying macaques based on clinical diagnosis, those macaques with active disease exhibited a similar signature to that observed in humans with active TB. However, only modest transcriptional differences between active TB and latently infected macaques were observed. As an alternative stratification approach, the severity of lung inflammation measured by lung FDG avidity was used to separate macaques into high and low FDG groups. Blood transcript activity was highly correlated with lung inflammation at early time points post-infection. The differential expression signatures between animals stratified with high and low lung FDG were stronger than those observed with groups defined by clinical outcome.. Furthermore, gene level analysis of of pre-infection signatures suggest that interferon and inflammation signatures may distinguish eventual clinical outcomes and lung FDG avidity prior infection. In conclusion, this study demonstrates that transcriptional changes in the macaque model recapitulate those observed in human Mtb infection while providing additional insight into the early and pre-infection events associated with disease severity and outcome.

Project description:Goal: To examine the effects of human resistin during helminth infection. Methodology: To examine the function of human resistin (hResistin), we utilized transgenic mice expressing the human resistin gene along with its entire regulatory region (hRetnTg+). Following infection with the helminth Nippostrongylus brasiliensis, whole lung RNA was sequenced in hRetnTg+ mice, control hRetnTg- and naïve mice. Conclusion: In hRetnTg+ mice, many genes involved in inflammation and the immune system, specifically toll-like receptor signaling and chemokines, are significantly upregulated, suggesting that human resistin promotes TLR signaling and inflammation during helminth infection.

Project description:Deletion of the gene encoding Foxa2, a winged helix transcription factor selectively expressed in respiratory epithelial cells, caused spontaneous pulmonary eosinophilic inflammation and goblet cell metaplasia. Loss of Foxa2 induced the recruitment and activation of myeloid dendritic cells (mDCs) and Th2 cells in the lung, and was associated with the increased production of T helper 2 (Th2) cytokines and chemokines. mRNA microarray analysis demonstrated that deletion of Foxa2 induced the expression of a number of mRNAs regulating pulmonary dendritic cell activation, Th2 mediated inflammation, and goblet cell differentiation. The spontaneous pulmonary inflammation and goblet cell metaplasia caused by loss of Foxa2 was inhibited by treatment of newborn Foxa2â??/â?? mice with monoclonal IL-4Ralpha antibody. Expression of Foxa2 in non-ciliated secretory cells (Clara cells) in vivo inhibited goblet cell differentiation induced by pulmonary allergen exposure. The respiratory epithelium plays a central role in the regulation of Th2-mediated inflammation and innate immunity in the developing lung in a process regulated by Foxa2. To investigate the role of Foxa2 and its downstream targets associated with the Th2 inflammation and goblet cell hyperplasia, RNAs were isolated from the lungs of Foxa2-/- and control littermates at PN15. Lung cRNA was hybridized to the murine genome MOE430 V2 chips.

Project description:Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) carries about a 50 percent mortality and is frequently associated with an infection (sepsis). Life-support treatment with mechanical ventilation rescues many patients, although superimposed infection or multiple organ failure can result in death. The outcome of a patient developing sepsis highly depends on the degree of pre-existing inflammation prior to the infection. In this study, we describe each stage of the inflammation process using a transcriptional approach and an animal model. Femelle C57BL6/J mice received an intraveinous oleic acid injection to induce an acute lung injury. PBMC expression patterns have been analyzed using a 9900 cDNA mouse microarray (MUSV29K). Our gene-expression analysis revealed marked changes in the immune and inflammatory response metabolic pathways, notably lipid metabolism and transcription. The early pro-inflammatory stage (1H-1H30) is characterized by the release of immune response and activation of inflammatory mechanisms. Later (3H-4H), the immune cells migrate into inflamed tissues through interaction with vascular endothelial cells. Finally, at late stages of lung inflammation (18H-24H), metabolism is deeply disturbed. Highly expressed pro-inflammatory cytokines activate transcription of many genes as well as lipid metabolism. This global overview of critical events occuring during lung inflammation is essential to understand infectious pathologies such as sepsis where inflammation and infection are interwined. From now on, it becomes possible to isolate the impact of a pathogen at the transcriptional level from the global gene expression modifications resulting from the infection associated with the inflammation. Also, our work allowed to identify genes involved in the response to inflammation. Among those, several may be potential target for gene therapy.
