Project description:We developed an in vitro model of pulmonary fibrosis using alveolar organoids, consisting of human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived alveolar epithelial cells and human lung fibroblasts. In this model, fibroblasts were activated by bleomysin (BLM) treatment in an epithelial cell-dependent manner simillar to the pathogenic mechanism of pulmonary fibrosis.

Project description:Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a fatal form of interstitial lung disease associated with progressive scarring of lung tissue and declining pulmonary function in aging individuals. Here we employ data mining and single cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq) to define candidate drivers of AT2 senescence in IPF lung tissue. We show that AT2 cells isolated from IPF lung tissue exhibit characteristic features of cellular senescence and reduced abundance of Sin3a, critical determinant of endodermal progenitor cell maintenance in the developing lung. Conditional loss of Sin3a within AT2 cells of the adult mouse lung activated a program of p53-dependent cellular senescence and AT2 cell depletion, leading to progressive pulmonary fibrosis. In contrast, ablation of AT2 cells through conditional activation of a DTA toxin gene led to transient fibrosis that resolved over time, suggesting that senescence of AT2 cells was a critical driver of progressive fibrosis. Activation of b6 integrin was observed within a subset of AT2 cells with Sin3a loss-of-function that localized to the advancing margin of advancing fibroproliferative lesions. Systemic inhibition of TGF signaling or delivery of senolytic drugs prevented lung fibrosis in Sin3a loss-of-function mice. Our findings establish a novel mouse model that recapitulates key pathological features of human IPA and show that p53-dependent senescence is a proximal regulator of TGF induction and progressive pulmonary fibrosis.

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 stromal cells and formation of scar tissue. Pulmonary fibrosis is a dysregulated response to alveolar injury which causes a progressive decline in lung function and refractory to current pharmacological therapies. Airway and alveolar epithelial cells and stromal cells contribute to pulmonary fibrosis but the cell-specific pathways and gene networks that are responsible for the pathophysiology are unknown. Recent animals models generated in our lab demonstrate clinical phenotypes seen in human fibrotic disease. The mouse model of transforming growth factor-? (TGF?)-induced fibrosis include conditionally expressing TGF? in the lung epithelium under control of the CCSP promoter driving rtTA expression (CCSP/TGF?). This allow the TGF? is only expressed in airway and alveolar epithelial cells and only when mice fed doxycycline (Dox). Similar to PF in humans, TGF? mice on Dox developed a progressive and extensive adventitial, interstitial and pleural fibrosis with a decline in lung mechanics. Thus, the TGF? transgenic mouse is a powerful model to determine lung cell-specific molecular signatures involved in pulmonary fibrosis. In this study, we sought to determine changes in the transcriptome during TGF?-induced pulmonary fibrosis. Our results showed that several pro-fibrotic genes increased in the lungs of TGF? mice. This study demonstrates that WT1 network gene changes associated with fibrosis and myfibroblast accumulation and thus may serve as a critical regulator fibrotic lung disease. mRNA profiles of CCSP/- and CCSP/TGFalpha mice treated with Dox

Project description:microRNAs (miRNAs) play a critical biological role in a variety of pathophysiological processes by suppressing their target genes. However, little is known on the miRNAs expression profiles of lung tissues in silica-induced pulmonary fibrosis. To investigate miRNAs of interest in regulation of pulmonary fibrosis, total RNA was isolated from mice lungs collected at day 0, day 3, day 7, day 14, day 28 and day 56 after silica exposure. Then, miRNA microarray was performed with one mouse lung at each time point. miRNA microarray was performed with one mouse lung at day 0, day 3, day 7, day 14, day 28 and day 56 after silica exposure to investigate the miRNAs expression profiles of lung tissues in silica-induced pulmonary fibrosis. Mouse lung tissues were selected at each time point after treatment for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. We sought to obtain homogeneous populations of lungs at each fibrotic stage in order to increase the temporal resolution of expression profiles. To that end, we hand-selected lung tissues according to morphological criteria at five time-points: before silica exposure, i.e. day 0 (D0), the early inflammation phase day 3 (D3) and day 7 (D7), the late inflammation phase, day 14 (D14), the fibrosis phase,i.e. day 28 (D28) and day (D56).

Project description:The successful repair of alveolar epithelial injury is required to restore the integrity of gas exchanging regions of the lung and preserve organ function. Severe pulmonary fibrosis is the result of repeated episodes of epithelial injury, activation of fibroblasts, and matrix accumulation. Thus, impaired alveolar epithelial progenitor cell renewal could contribute to the progression of fibrosis. We provide evidence that expression of TLR4 and hyaluronan (HA) on Type 2 alveolar epithelial cells (AEC2s) is necessary for self-renewal. Either deletion of TLR4 or HA synthase 2 leads to impaired regeneration of AEC2s, severe fibrosis and mortality, in part due to blunted production of IL-6. AEC2s from patients with pulmonary fibrosis have reduced cell surface HA, and impaired renewal capacity, suggesting that interactions between HA and TLR4 are key regulators of lung stem cell renewal, repair of lung injury and that severe pulmonary fibrosis is the result of epithelial stem cell failure. We used microarrays to detail the gene expression of AEC2 cells from WT and TLR4-/- mice.
