Integrating Proteomes for Lung Tissue and Lavage Reveals Pathways that Integrate Responses in Allergen-Challenged Mice

ABSTRACT: To capture interplay between biological pathways we analyzed the proteome from matched lung tissue and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) of individual allergen-naive and house dust mite (HDM)-challenged BALB/c mice, a model of allergic asthma. Unbiased label-free LC-MS/MS analysis quantified 2,675 proteins from tissue and BALF of allergen-naive and HDM-exposed mice. In comparing the four datasets we found significantly greater diversity in proteins between lung tissue and BALF than the changes induced by HDM challenge. The biological pathways enriched after allergen exposure were compartment-dependent. Lung tissue featured innate immune responses and oxidative stress, while BALF most strongly revealed changes in metabolism. We combined lung tissue and BALF proteomes, which principally highlighted oxidation reduction (redox) pathways, a finding influenced chiefly by the lung tissue dataset. Integrating lung and BALF proteomes also uncovered new proteins and biological pathways that may mediate lung tissue and BALF interactions after allergen challenge, for example, B Cell Receptor signaling. We demonstrate that enhanced insight is fostered when different biological compartments from the lung are investigated in parallel. Integration of proteomes from lung tissue and BALF compartments reveals new information about protein networks in the response to environmental challenge and interaction between intracellular and extracellular process.

To capture interplay between biological pathways, we analyzed the proteome from matched lung tissues and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) of individual allergen-naïve and house dust mite (HDM)-challenged BALB/c mice, a model of allergic asthma. Unbiased label-free liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) analysis quantified 2675 proteins from tissues and BALF of allergen-naïve and HDM-exposed mice. In comparing the four datasets, we found significantly greater diversity ...[more]

Project description:Background: We previously reported on the role of pericyte-like cells as functional sentinel immune cells in lung injury. However, much about the biology of pericytes in lung injury remains unknown. Lung pericyte-like cells are well-positioned to sense disruption to the epithelial barrier and coordinate local inflammatory responses due to their anatomic niche within the alveoli. In this report, we characterized transcriptional responses and functional changes in pericyte-like cells following activation by alveolar components from injured and uninjured lungs. Methods: We purified pericyte-like cells from lung digests using PDGFR_ as a selection marker and expanded them in culture as previously described (1). We induced sterile acute lung injury in mice with recombinant human Fas ligand (rhFasL) instillation followed by mechanical ventilation (1). We then collected bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) from injured and uninjured mice. Purified pericyte-like cells in culture were exposed to growth media only (control), BALF from uninjured mice, and BALF from injured mice for 6 and 24 h. RNA collected from pericyte-like cells for each of these treatment conditions underwent genome-wide sequencing using RNA-seq. Targets of interest identified by bioinformatics analysis of RNA-seq data were validated using in vitro and in vivo assays. Results: We observed robust global transcriptional changes in pericyte-like cells following treatment with uninjured and injured BALF at 6 h, but this response persisted for 24 h only after exposure to injured BALF. Functional enrichment analysis of pericytes treated with injured BALF revealed activation of immuno-inflammatory, cell migration and angiogenesis-related pathways, whereas processes associated with tissue development and remodeling were down-regulated. We validated select targets in the inflammatory, angiogenesis-related, and cell migratory pathways using functional assays in vitro and in vivo. Conclusion: Lung pericyte-like cells are highly responsive to alveolar compartment content from both uninjured and injured lungs, but injured BALF elicits a more sustained response. The inflammatory, angiogenic, and migratory changes exhibited by activated pericyte-like cells underscore the phenotypic plasticity of these specialized stromal cells in the setting of acute lung injury.

Project description:Background: Sarcoidosis and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) are two most frequent forms of interstitial lung diseases (ILDs). Cellular and biochemical composition of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALf) was shown to reflect the proliferative and fibrotic changes in the local environment in the lung. However, the usefulness of BALf cellular profile evaluation in the diagnosis of ILDs is limited. The aim of the study was a multivariate, molecular, comparative analysis of BALf cells from IPF and sarcoidosis patients. Methods: Transcriptomic measurements were carried out using Affymetrix Human Gene 2.1 ST ArrayStrip in 21 samples: 9 IPF and 12 sarcoidosis. The mRNA expression for the most significantly differentiating genes was evaluated by real time PCR in 32 samples (11 IPF and 21 sarcoidosis). Results: The number of genes differentially expressed between IPF and sarcoidosis groups were 4832 (13359 probesets). Our cluster analysis indicated that sarcoidosis BALf cells are characterized by increased mRNA expression of genes associated with ribosome biogenesis, transcription machinery. Clusters formed by genes with changed mRNA expression in IPF samples were implicated in the processes of cell adhesion and migration, metalloproteinase expression and negative regulation of cell proliferation. PCR verification showed higher expression of ANK3 in the sarcoidosis compared to the IPF group, and higher expression of MMP7 and PPBP in patients with IPF. The GO analysis indicated that predominant biological processes associated with the differential mRNA gene expression of BALf cells were upregulation of neutrophils in IPF and lymphocytes in sarcoidosis. Conclusions: Analysis of BALf from sarcoidosis and IPF showed highly different mRNA profile of cells present in bronchoalveolar compartment and provided new data on the pathobiology of these ILDs. The changes of most important biological processes observed at the molecular level in BALf cells were associated with ribosome biogenesis and proteasome apparatus in sarcoidosis and neutrophilic dysfunction in IPF.
