Project description:Fetal wounds repair by regeneration rather than wound healing and the environment is dominated by amniotic fluid. We are looking at early transcriptional regulation of keratinocytes cultured in amniotic fluid in vitro. Keratinocytes were isolated and expanded to passage three after which they were starved in DMEM for 12h then cultured for 24h in human amniotic fluid (50%), fcs (50%) or DMEM alone for another 24h. N=2, pooled replicates per CEL-file.

Project description:Amniotic fluid (AF) is a complex biological material that provides a unique window into the developing human. Residual AF supernatant contains cell-free fetal RNA. The objective of this study was to develop an understanding of the AF core transcriptome by identifying the transcripts ubiquitously present in the AF supernatant of euploid midtrimester fetuses. We detected 476 well-annotated genes present in all twelve AF samples. Functional analysis identified 6 physiological systems represented in the AF core transcriptome, including musculoskeletal and nervous system development and function and embryonic/ organismal development. mTOR signaling was identified as a key canonical pathway. Twenty-three highly organ-specific transcripts were identified; six of these are known to be highly expressed by fetal brain. This study demonstrates that AF cell-free fetal RNA can provide biological information about multiple fetal organ systems. This was an in silico investigation of gene expression in 12 euploid midtrimester AF samples acquired primarily for advanced maternal age. We focused on the transcripts called M-bM-^@M-^\presentM-bM-^@M-^] in all of the samples. Functional analyses were performed using Ingenuity software. Fetal-organ specificity was examined for each transcript using the GNF Gene Expression Atlas. For fetal organs not represented in the atlas, manual literature searching and Ingenuity analysis were used.

Project description:Intra-amniotic infection, the invasion of microbes into the amniotic cavity resulting in an inflammatory process, is a clinical condition that can lead to adverse pregnancy outcomes for the mother and fetus as well as severe long-term neonatal morbidities. Despite much research focused on the consequences of intra-amniotic infection, there is still little knowledge about the functional roles of innate immune cells that respond to invading microbes. In the current study, we performed RNA sequencing of sorted neutrophils and monocytes/macrophages from amniotic fluid from women with intra-amniotic infection to determine the transcriptomic differences between these innate immune cells. Further, we sought to identify specific transcriptomic pathways that were significantly altered by the maternal or fetal origin of amniotic fluid neutrophils and monocytes, the presence of a severe fetal inflammatory response, and pregnancy outcome (i.e. preterm or term delivery). We showed that significant transcriptomic differences exist between amniotic fluid neutrophils and monocytes/macrophages from women with intra-amniotic infection that are indicative of the distinct roles these cells play. We also found that amniotic fluid monocytes/macrophages of fetal origin display impaired ability to clear out microbes invading the amniotic cavity compared to those of maternal origin. Notably, we demonstrate that the transcriptomic changes in amniotic fluid monocytes/macrophages are heavily associated with the severity of the fetal inflammatory response, suggesting that the trafficking of fetal neutrophils throughout the umbilical cord is partially modulated by monocytes/macrophages in the amniotic cavity. Finally, we show that amniotic fluid neutrophils and monocytes/macrophages from preterm deliveries display enhanced transcriptomic activity compared to those from term deliveries, highlighting the protective role of these innate immune cells in this vulnerable period. Collectively, these findings demonstrate the underlying complexity of local innate immune responses in women with intra-amniotic infection, and provide new insights into the functions of amniotic fluid neutrophils and monocytes in the amniotic cavity.

Project description:Background: Turner syndrome, a common sex chromosome aneuploidy, has characteristics and malformations associated with the phenotype. Fetal amniotic fluid is a complex biological material that could contribute to the understanding Turner syndrome pathogenesis. Global gene expression analysis of Turner syndrome fetal amniotic fluid supernatant was utilized to identify organ systems and specific genes that may play a role in the pathophysiologic changes that are seen in individuals with Turner syndrome. Methods: Global gene expression analysis was performed utilizing cell-free RNA from five midtrimester fetuses with Turner syndrome matched with five euploid female fetuses. Total RNA was extracted, amplified, hybridized onto GeneChipM-BM-. Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 arrays. Network and pathway analysis of differentially expressed genes were completed. Chromosomal distribution of gene expression differences, differential expression by pathway and organ system (a M-bM-^@M-^\Turner syndrome core transcriptomeM-bM-^@M-^]), and candidate genes that could play a pathological role were identified. Results: There were 470 differentially expressed genes identified in the Turner syndrome transcriptome. The differentially expressed genes were distributed randomly across different chromosomes. Among genes on the X chromosome, XIST was down-regulated, and SHOX not differentially expressed. The most highly represented organ systems were hematologic/immune and neurologic. Increased representation of differentially expressed genes in the hematologic/immune system distinguishes the Turner syndrome transcriptome from the euploid, trisomy 18 and trisomy 21 transcriptomes previously studied in our laboratory. Manual curation of the differentially expressed gene list identified genes including NFATC3, IGFBP5, and LDLR that warrant further study. 2nd trimester amniotic fluid mRNA expression was compared between 5 Turners and 5 euploid fetuses.

Project description:Objective: Amniotic fluid (AF) is a proximal fluid to the fetus containing higher amounts of cell-free fetal RNA/DNA than maternal serum, thereby making it a promising source for novel biomarker discovery of fetal development and maturation. Our aim was to compare AF transcriptomic profiles at different time points in pregnancy to demonstrate unique genetic signatures that would serve as potential biomarkers indicative of fetal maturation. Methods: We isolated AF RNA from 16 women at different time points in pregnancy: 4 from 18-24 weeks, 6 from 34-36 weeks, and 6 from at 39-40 weeks. RNA-sequencing was performed on cell-free RNA. Gene expression and splicing analyses were performed in conjunction with cell-type and pathway inference. Results: Sample-level analysis at different time points in pregnancy yielded a strong correlation with cell types found in the intrauterine environment and fetal respiratory, digestive and external barrier tissues of the fetus, using high-confidence cellular molecular markers. While some genes and splice variants were present throughout pregnancy, an abundant number of transcripts were uniquely expressed at different time points in pregnancy and associated with distinct fetal co-morbidities (respiratory distress and gavage feeding), indicating fetal immaturity. Conclusions: The AF transcriptome exhibits unique cell- and organ-selective expression patterns at different time points in pregnancy that can potentially identify fetal organ maturity and predict neonatal morbidity. Developing novel biomarkers indicative of the maturation of multiple organ systems can improve upon our current methods of fetal maturity testing which focus solely on the lung, and better inform obstetrical decisions regarding delivery timing.

Project description:We previously reported that c-KIT+ human amniotic-fluid derived stem cells obtained from leftover samples of routine II trimester prenatal diagnosis (fetal hAFS) are endowed with regenerative paracrine potential driving pro-survival, pro-angiogenic, anti-fibrotic and proliferative effects on target cells. hAFS can be also isolated from III trimester clinical waste samples during C-section scheduled procedures (perinatal hAFS), thus offering an easily accessible alternative source. Nonetheless, little is known about their paracrine profile. Here we provide a detailed characterization of the hAFS total secretome (i.e. whole of the soluble paracrine factors released by the cells in their conditioned medium, hAFS-CM) and the extracellular vesicles (hAFS-EVs) within it as from II trimester fetal- versus III trimester perinatal cells. Fetal- and perinatal hAFS were characterized and subject to hypoxic preconditioning to enhance their paracrine potential. Their secretome formulations were analyzed in terms of protein and chemokine/cytokine content, with the EV cargo further investigated by RNA sequencing. While the appearance of fetal and perinatal hAFS, along with their corresponding secretome formulations was overlapping, the profiling of their paracrine cargo revealed some differences according to gestational stage and hypoxic preconditioning. While both cell sources provided paracrine formulations enriched with neurotrophic, immunomodulatory and endothelial stimulating factors, the more immature fetal hAFS secretome was defined by a more pronounced pro-angiogenic, pro-resolving and anti-aging profile over the perinatal one, while the corresponfing EV…. Moreover, small RNA profiling showed a relevant enrichment of microRNA in both the fetal and perinatal hAFS-EV cargo, with a steadily expressed pro-resolving miRNA core as reference molecular signature. Here we confirm that hAFS represents an appealing source of regenerative paracrine factors; the selection of either fetal or perinatal hAFS secretome formulations for future paracrine therapy should be evaluated considering the specific clinical scenario.

Project description:The bone marrow microenvironment is critical for the maintenance and functionality of stem/progenitor cells, which is essential for bone development and regeneration. However, the composition and potential use of bone marrow interstitial fluid have not been extensively explored. In this study, we report a role of neonatal bovine bone marrow interstitial fluid (NBIF) in enhancing bone regeneration capacity of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs). Unlike adult bovine bone marrow interstitial fluid (ABIF), NBIF-fed hBMSCs exhibit enhanced self-renewal and osteogenic potential and bone marrow homing ability with transcriptome changes as against hBMSCs cultured in standard fetal bovine serum (FBS) supplemented medium. Mass spectrometry analysis reveals that multiple secreted factors associated with tissue repair and bone development are enriched in NBIF compared to FBS and ABIF. The combined use of NBIF-enriched Nerve Growth Factor (NGF), Lactoferrin (LTF) and High Mobility Group Protein B1 (HMGB1) with Insulin-Like Growth Factor 1(IGF1) for culturing hBMSCs in the presence of FBS can enhance osteogenic potential and bone marrow homing ability, mimicking NBIF’s effects. These findings highlight the role of interstitial fluid in the bone marrow microenvironment and its potential to optimize stem cell based therapies.

Project description:The endothelium first forms in the blood islands in the extra-embryonic yolk sac and then throughout the embryo to establish circulatory networks that further acquire organ-specific properties during development to support diverse organ functions. Here, we investigated the properties of endothelial cells (ECs), isolated from four human major organsthe heart, lung, liver, and kidneys in individual fetal tissues at three months' gestation, at gene expression, and at cellular function levels. We showed that organ-specific ECs have distinct expression patterns of gene clusters, which support their specific organ development and functions. These ECs displayed distinct barrier properties, angiogenic potential, and metabolic rate and support specific organ functions. Our findings showed the link between human EC heterogeneity and organ development and can be exploited therapeutically to contribute in organ regeneration, disease modeling, as well as guiding differentiation of tissue-specific ECs from human pluripotent stem cells.
