Project description:	Pulmonary hypertension (PH), a common complication in dogs affected by degenerative mitral valve disease (DMVD), is a progressive disorder characterized by increased pulmonary arterial pressure (PAP) and pulmonary vascular remodeling. Early diagnosis of PH is crucial for effective management and improved clinical outcomes. This study aimed to identify potential serum biomarkers for diagnosing PH in dogs affected with DMVD using a phosphoproteomic approach.

Project description:Darier disease (DD) is a rare, inherited multi-organ disorder associated with mutations in the ATP2A2 gene. In DD patients, the skin is frequently affected, characterized by malodorous, inflamed skin and recurrent, severe infections. Therapeutic options are limited and inadequate for the long-term management of this chronic disease. Using immunoprofiling with NanoString technology we demonstrate enhanced expression of Th-17-related genes and cytokines in five DD patients. We prove that targeting the IL-23/-17 axis in DD with monoclonal antibodies is an effective and safe therapy in DD patients, leading also to significant clinical improvement.

Project description:Darier disease (DD) is a rare, inherited multi-organ disorder associated with mutations in the ATP2A2 gene. In DD patients, the skin is frequently affected, characterized by malodorous, inflamed skin and recurrent, severe infections. Therapeutic options are limited and inadequate for the long-term management of this chronic disease. Using immunoprofiling with NanoString technology, qPCR and immunohistochemistry, we demonstrate enhanced expression of Th-17-related genes and cytokines in six DD patients. We prove that targeting the IL-23/-17 axis in DD with monoclonal antibodies is an effective and safe therapy in DD patients, leading to significant clinical improvement. As DD is a chronic, relapsing disease, our findings provide new options for the long-term management of skin inflammation in patients with DD.

Project description:Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a life-threatening disease, characterized by excessive pulmonary vascular remodeling, leading to elevated pulmonary arterial pressure and right heart hypertrophy. PH is caused, among other factors, by chronic hypoxia, leading to hyper-proliferation of pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells (PASMC) and apoptosis-resistant pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells (PMVEC). Upon re-exposure to normoxia, chronic hypoxia-induced PH in mice is reversible. In this study, we aim to identify novel candidate genes involved in pulmonary vascular remodeling specifically in the pulmonary vasculature.

Project description:Crohn’s disease (CD) is a debilitating gastrointestinal disorder that can impact the entirety of the GI tract. While substantial progress has been made in the medical management of CD, it remains incurable, frequently relapses, and is a significant financial and medical burden. The pathophysiology of CD is not well understood, but it is thought to arise in genetically susceptible individuals upon an environmental insult. Further elucidation of the disease etiology promises to expose additional therapeutic avenues, with the hope of reducing the burden of CD. One approach to understanding disease pathophysiology is to identify clinically relevant molecular disease subsets using transcriptomics. In this report, we use hierarchical clustering of the ileal transcriptomes of 34 patients to identify two CD subsets. Clinically, these clusters differed in the age of the patients at CD diagnosis, suggesting that age of disease onset impacts the pathophysiology of the disease. We found that the ileal transcriptomes of the early diagnosis cluster are enriched in inflammatory transcripts, including S100A9, which encodes a calprotectin subunit. Furthermore, levels of S100A9 distinguished individuals diagnosed before the age of 30 from those diagnosed after 30. Together, these findings suggest that medical management of CD patients should consider their age at diagnosis and therapeutic blockade of calprotectin may be beneficial in patients diagnosed earlier in life.

Project description:Left heart disease (LHD) frequently causes lung vascular remodelling and pulmonary hypertension (PH). Yet, pharmacological treatment for PH in LHD is lacking and its pathophysiological basis remains obscure. We aimed to identify candidate mechanisms of PH in LHD and to test their relevance and therapeutic potential. In rats, LHD was induced by supracoronary aortic banding. Whole genome microarray analyses were performed, candidate genes were confirmed by RT-PCR and Western blots and functional relevance was tested in vivo by genetic and pharmacological strategies. In lungs of LHD rats, mast cell activation was the most prominently upregulated gene ontology cluster. Mast cell gene upregulation was confirmed at RNA and protein levels and remodelled vessels showed perivascular mast cell accumulations. In LHD rats treated with the mast cell stabiliser ketotifen, or in mast cell deficient Ws/Ws rats, PH and vascular remodelling were largely attenuated. Both strategies also reduced PH and vascular remodelling in monocrotaline-induced pulmonary arterial hypertension, suggesting that the role of mast cells extends to noncardiogenic PH. In PH of different aetiologies, mast cells accumulate around pulmonary blood vessels and contribute to vascular remodelling and PH. Mast cells and mast cell-derived mediators may present promising targets for the treatment of PH. Whole rat genome microarray analyses were performed in lung homogenates of three rats with established PH following supracoronary aortic banding and in three sham-operated controls. Out of a total of 28,000 analysed genes, differential expression defined as 2-fold change with p<0.05 was evident for 120 genes. Of these, 76 were upregulated and 44 downregulated in aortic banding compared with control lungs gene. Enrichment analysis revealed regulation of mast cell specific genes - 13 out of 20 genes were significantly upregulated in aortic banding compared with control lungs. To test for a putative functional role of mast cells in lung vascular remodelling and PH in LHD, we applied a pharmacological approach by treatment of aortic banding rats with the mast cell stabiliser ketotifen. Microarray analysis then compared rats that were treated with untreated.

Project description:Vascular remodeling is the process of structural alteration and cell rearrangement of blood vessels in response to injury and is the cause of many of the world's most afflicted cardiovascular conditions, including pulmonary arterial hypertension(PAH). Many studies have focused on the effects of vascular endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells(SMCs) during vascular remodeling, but pericytes, an indispensable cell population residing largely in capillaries, are ignored in this maladaptive process. Here we report that hypoxia-inducible factor 2α(HIF2α) expression is increased in human PAH patient lung tissues and HIF2α overexpressed pericytes result in greater contractility and an impaired endothelial-pericyte interaction. Using single-cell RNAseq and hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension(PH) models, we show HIF2α as a major molecular regulator for pericytes’ transformation into SMC-like cells. HIF2α overexpression in pericyte-selective mice exacerbate PH and right ventricular hypertrophy. Temporal cellular lineage tracing shows that HIF2α overexpressing reporter NG2+ cells (pericyte-selective) relocate from capillaries to arterioles and co-express SMA. This novel insight into the potential role of NG2+ pericytes in pulmonary vascular remodeling via HIF2α signaling suggests a potential drug target for PH.

Microarray analysis then compared rats that were treated with untreated. In brief, congestive heart failure (CHF) was induced in juvenile rats by supracoronary aortic banding and rats were analyzed 9 weeks thereafter when they had established left heart failure with preserved ejection fraction and secondary pulmonary hypertension. Three heart failure rats were untreated, and 3 received the mast cell stabilizer ketotifen (1 mg/kg-1 bodyweight/day-1) with the drinking water. Sham rats underwent the same surgical procedure but without placement of a clip on the supracoronary aorta. Microarray analyses: Lungs from banded and control rats were excised and total RNA was extracted (Stratagene Absolutely RNA Miniprep Kit; Stratagene, La Jolla, USA). Three µg total RNA from three control and three banded rats each were processed according to the One-Cycle Target Labeling protocol (GeneChip Expression Analysis, Affymetrix, Santa Clara, USA). Before and after amplifications, the total RNA/complementary RNA concentrations were checked with NanoDrop ND-1000 (Thermo Scientific, Wilmington, USA) and quality was controlled (Experion electrophoresis station, BioRad; Hercules, USA). Samples were hybridized to GeneChip® Rat Genome 230 2.0 arrays (Affymetrix; Santa Clara, USA) containing 31,000 probe sets covering 28,000 rat genes.

Project description:Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a progressive pulmonary vascular disease that culminates in right heart failure. Vascular pathology in PH is characterized by pulmonary vasoconstriction and progressive vascular remodeling processes that affects all layers of the vascular wall (intima, media and adventitia). Our objective was to profile and analyze the differential gene expression signatures between the cells isolated from normal and idiopathic PAH patients. We generated vascular cell-specific transcriptome profiles from the adventitial fibroblasts (PAAF) isolated ex vivo from the dissected human pulmonary arteries of normal donor and PAH lungs using paired-end RNA-sequencing.
