Project description:To gain insight into the promoting effect of ultrafine particle inhalation on development and progression of allergic asthma, we selected an experimental approach involving exposure to ultrafine carbon particles (UCP) and gene expression profiling of lungs from mice with experimental, ovalbumin induced allergy. Comparative gene expression analysis was performed by hybridizing pooled cDNA samples from lavaged lungs of different groups. These results suggest that allergic sensitization may represent a susceptibility factor for effects of UCP on gene expression in the lung. In sensitized individuals UCP exposure, such as found in polluted air, thus may contribute to the development and /or aggravation of allergic asthma. Keywords: Particle Inhalation, lung, ovalbumin sensitzed and challanged, experssion profiling Lungs of groups of six non-sensitized, ovalbumin sensitized, or sensitized and ovalbumin challenged BALB/cJ mice, either subjected to particle-free or UCP containing air; two replicates including one dye swap experiment have been performed for lungs: a) non-sensitized particle free air versus sensitized and ovalbumin challenged sensitized particle free air; b) non-sensitized UCP containing air versus sensitized and ovalbumin challenged sensitized UCP containing air

Project description:Diesel exhaust (DE) has been shown to enhance allergic sensitization in animals following high dose instillation or chronic inhalation exposure scenarios. The purpose of this study was to determine if short term exposures to diluted DE enhance allergic immune responses to antigen, and identify possible mechanisms using microarray technology. BALB/c mice were exposed to filtered air or diluted DE to yield particle concentrations of 500 or 2000 µg/m3 4 hr/day on days 0-4. Mice were sensitized intranasally with ovalbumin (OVA) antigen or saline on days 0-2, and 18 and all were challenged with OVA on day 28. Mice were necropsied either 4 hrs after the last DE exposure on day 4, or 18, 48, and 96 hrs after challenge. Immunological endpoints included OVA-specific serum IgE, biochemical and cellular profiles of bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), and cytokine production in the BAL. OVA-sensitized mice exposed to both concentrations of DE had increased eosinophils, neutrophils, lymphocytes, and IL-6 post-challenge compared to OVA control, while DE/saline exposure yielded increases in neutrophils at the high dose only. Microarray analysis demonstrated distinct gene expression profiles for the high dose DE/OVA and DE/saline groups. DE/OVA induced pathways involved in oxidative stress and metabolism while DE in the absence of allergen sensitization modulated cell cycle control, growth and differentiation, G-proteins, and cell adhesion pathways. This study shows for the first time early changes in gene expression induced by the combination of diesel exhaust inhalation and antigen sensitization, which resulted in stronger development of an allergic asthma phenotype. Experiment Overall Design: Lung RNA was isolated from mice exposed to filtered air, 500 ug/m3 DE, or 2000 ug/m3 DE with or without OVA for a total of 6 exposure groups. Each group had 4 replicates for a total of 24 microarrays.

Project description:CpG-oligodeoxynucleotides (CpG-ODNs) constitute an attractive alternative for asthma treatment. We found that free feeding of an ODNcap (a CpG-ODN-embedded particle) -containing feed (ODNcap-F) prophylactically attenuates allergic airway inflammation, hyperresponsiveness, and goblet cell hyperplasia in an ovalbumin (OVA) -induced asthma model. To seek the suppressive mechanism of action of ODNcap-F in OVA-induced airway insults, we analyzed the lung transcriptome using DNA microarray analysis.

Project description:Background: Inhalation exposure to biological particulate matter (BioPM) from livestock farms may provoke exacerbations in subjects suffering from allergy and asthma. The aim of this study was to use a murine model of allergic asthma to determine the effect of BioPM derived from goat farm on airway allergic responses Methods: Fine (< 2.5 μm) BioPM was collected from an indoor goat stable. Female BALB/c mice were ovalbumin (OVA) sensitized and challenged with OVA or saline as control. The OVA and saline groups were divided in sub-groups and exposed intranasally to different concentrations (0, 0.9, 3, or 9 μg) of goat farm BioPM. Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), blood and lung tissues were collected. Results: In saline-challenged mice, goat farm BioPM alone induced a dose-dependent increase in neutrophils in BALF and induced production of macrophage inflammatory protein-3a). In OVA-challenged mice, BioPM significantly enhanced 1) inflammatory cells in BALF, 2) OVA-specific Immunoglobulin (Ig)G1, 3) interleukin-23 production, 4) airway mucus secretion-specific gene expression. RNAseq analysis of lungs indicates that neutrophil chemotaxis and oxidation-reduction processes were the representative genomic pathways in saline and OVA-challenged mice, respectively. Conclusions: A single exposure to goat farm BioPM enhanced airway inflammation in both saline and OVA-challenged allergic mice, with neutrophilic response as Th17 disorder and eosinophilic response as Th2 disorder indicative of the severity of allergic responses. Identification of the mode of action by which farm PM interacts with airway allergic pathways will be useful to design potential therapeutic approaches.

Project description:Background: Microbial interventions against allergic asthma have robust epidemiologic underpinnings and the potential to recalibrate disease-inducing immune responses. Oral administration of OM-85, a standardized lysate of human airways bacteria, is widely used empirically to prevent respiratory infections, and a clinical trial is testing its ability to prevent asthma in at-risk children. On the other hand, we previously showed that intra-nasal administration of products from microbe-rich farm environments abrogate experimental allergic asthma. Objectives: To investigate whether direct administration of OM-85 to the airway compartment protects against experimental allergic asthma, and to identify protective cellular and molecular mechanisms activated through this natural route. Methods: BALB/cJ mice (7-8 weeks old) sensitized and challenged with Ovalbumin received OM-85 intra-nasally, and cardinal cellular and molecular asthma phenotypes were measured. Murine lung gene expression was profiled by RNA-sequencing. Results: Airway administration of OM-85 suppressed allergic asthma and altered the transcriptome profile in unfractionated lung tissue. Conclusion We provide the first demonstration that administration of a standardized bacterial lysate to the airway compartment protects from experimental allergic asthma by engaging multiple immune pathways.

Project description:Resiquimod is a nucleoside analog belonging to the imidazoquinoline family of compounds which is known to signal through Toll-like receptor 7. Resiquimod treatment has been demonstrated to inhibit the development of allergen induced asthma in experimental models. Despite this demonstrated effectiveness, little is known about the molecular events responsible for this effect. The aim of the present study was to elucidate the molecular processes which were altered following resiquimod treatment and antigen challenge in a mouse model of allergic asthma. Employing microarray analysis, we have characterized the 'asthmatic' transcriptome of the murine lung and determined that it includes genes involved in: the control of cell cycle progression, airway remodelling, the complement and coagulation cascades, and chemokine signalling. We have demonstrated that systemic resiquimod administration resulted in the recruitment of NK cells to the lungs of the mice, although no causal relationship between NK cell recruitment and treatment efficacy was found. Furthermore, results of our studies demonstrated that resiquimod treatment resulted in the normalization of the expression of genes involved with airway remodelling and chemokine signalling, and in the modulation of the expression of genes including cytokines and chemokines, adhesion molecules, and B-cell related genes, involved in several aspects of immune function and antigen presentation. Overall, our findings identified several genes, important in the development of asthma pathology, that were normalized following resiquimod treatment thus improving our understanding of the molecular consequences of resiquimod treatment in the lung milieu. Experiment Overall Design: A total of 18 samples, from 6 sets of biological replicates, were analyzed. 9 A/J and 9 C57BL/6 mice were divided into three equal groups. All animals were sensitized to ovalbumin, one group received PBS aerosol challenges, the other two received 1% ovalbumin aerosol challenges. Of the two ovalbumin challenged groups, one recieved resiquimod 24hours before each challenge.
