Project description:The regeneration of the airway mucociliary epithelium involves several sequential events including migration, proliferation, polarization and final differentiation (i.e ciliogenesis). The airway mucociliary epithelium is consituted of three main cell types : ciliated cells, secretory cells and basal cells. We used microRNA microrrays to investigate the signature of microRNA during the four step of regeneration of the airway epithelium. Four time points (ALI-D0, ALI-D7, ALI-D14, ALI-D21) of regeneration of the airway epithelium for 3 donors.

We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression that occurs during regeneration and ciliogenesis of the human airway mucociliary epithelium.

The four time points of regeneration of the airway epithelium (ALI-D0 which corresponds to the end of proliferation step; ALI-D7 which corresponds to the polarization step; ALI-D14 which corresponds to the onset of ciliogenesis and ALI-D21 corresponding to the terminal differentiation step) for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.

Project description:Background: Whereas cilia damage and reduced cilia beat frequency have been implicated as causative of reduced mucociliary clearance in smokers, theoretically mucociliary clearance could also be affected by cilia length. Based on models of mucociliary clearance predicting cilia length must exceed the 6 -7 μm airway surface fluid depth to generate force in the mucus layer, we hypothesized cilia height may be decreased in airway epithelium of normal smokers compared to nonsmokers. Methodology/Principal Findings: Cilia length in normal nonsmokers and smokers was evaluated in aldehyde-fixed, paraffin-embedded endobronchial biopsies, and air-dried and hydrated samples brushed from human airway epithelium via fiberoptic bronchoscopy. In 28 endobronchial biopsies, healthy smoker cilia length was reduced 15% compared to nonsmokers (p<0.05). In 47 air-dried samples of airway epithelial cells, smoker cilia length was reduced 13% compared to nonsmokers (p<0.0001). Analysis of the length of individual, detached cilia in 17 samples, smoker cilia length was reduced 9% compared to nonsmokers (p<0.05). Finally, in 16 fully hydrated, unfixed samples, smoker cilia length was reduced 7% compared to nonsmokers (p<0.05). Conclusions/significance: Models predict that a reduction in cilia length would reduce mucociliary clearance, suggesting that smoking-associated shorter airway epithelial cilia plays a significant role in the pathogenesis of smoking-induced lung disease.
Project description:Epidermis of Xenopus embryos forms a mucociliary epithelium constituted of basal, scattered, secreting and ciliated cells and is histologically similar to human airway mucociliary epithelium. We compared microRNAs signatures of epidermis of Xenopus embryos at stage 11.5 (gastrula, non ciliated epidermis) and at stage 26 (tailbud, ciliated epidermis).
