Project description:Chronic pain is a debilitating and poorly-treated condition. The mechanisms underlying the development of chronic pain are not well understood. Nerve injury and inflammation cause alterations in gene expression in tissues associated with transmission of pain, supporting molecular and cellular mechanisms that maintain painful states. Previous studies in animal models and human patients suffering from different chronic pain conditions have examined changes in transcriptome associated with chronic pain. However, in most studies, the analyses were restricted to a single tissue or pain condition. In the current study, we performed next-generation sequencing of dorsal root ganglia, spinal cord, brain and blood in mouse models of nerve injury and inflammation-induced chronic pain. Comparative analyses of differentially expressed genes (DEG) across these tissues in two pain models identified the extracellular matrix organization (ECMO) pathway as the most commonly affected pathway. Interestingly, examination of GWAS datasets revealed an over-representation of DEGs within the ECMO pathway in SNPs most strongly associated with human back pain. Remarkably, manipulation of the extracellular matrix in the mouse significantly affected the development of pain hypersensitivity following nerve injury, supporting our gene expression findings. In summary, our comprehensive analysis of transcriptional landscape across different mouse pain models and tissues as well as human GWAS datasets identified extracellular matrix organization as a central molecular pathway in the development of chronic pain.

Project description:To identify genes implicated in metastatic colonization of the liver in colorectal cancer, we collected pairs of primary tumors and hepatic metastases before chemotherapy in 13 patients. We compared mRNA expression in the pairs of patients to identify genes deregulated during metastatic evolution. We then validated the identified genes using data obtained by different groups. The 33-gene signature was able to classify 87% of hepatic metastases, 98% of primary tumors, 97% of normal colon mucosa, and 95% of normal liver tissues in six datasets obtained using five different microarray platforms. The identified genes are specific to colon cancer and hepatic metastases since other metastatic locations and hepatic metastases originating from breast cancer were not classified by the signature. Gene Ontology term analysis showed that 50% of the genes are implicated in extracellular matrix remodeling, and more precisely in cell adhesion, extracellular matrix organization and angiogenesis. Because of the high efficiency of the signature to classify colon hepatic metastases, the identified genes represent promising targets to develop new therapies that will specifically affect hepatic metastasis microenvironment. 57 samples of patients with stage IV colorectal cancer. We compared using Affymetrix chips gene expression profiles between primary tumors and hepatic metastases

Project description:Extracellular matrix proteomic profiling Mass spectrometry characterization illustrated a reprogrammed proteome in response to matrix stiffness, including a core subset of 84 ECM-specific proteins, including various ECM regulators and tissue-associated ECM-related proteins. Further, we observe remodeling of ECM proteome with softer substrates associated with metabolic/mitochondrial network (178 proteins), while with 40 kPa substrate (92 proteins enriched) resulting in networks associated with enrichment of collagen biosynthesis, integrin cell surface interactions, and extracellular matrix organization networks.

Project description:Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition (EMT) is essential for tissue patterning and organization. It involves both regulation of cell motility and alterations in the composition and organization of the extracellular matrix (ECM); a complex environment of proteoglycans and fibrous proteins that promotes tissue homeostasis, regulates signaling in response to chemical and biomechanical stimuli and is often dysregulated in diseases such as cancer and fibrosis. Here, we demonstrate that Basonuclin-2 (BNC2), a mesenchymal-expressed gene that has been widely associated with cancer and developmental defects by genome-wide association study (GWAS), is a novel regulator of ECM composition and degradation. We find that at endogenous levels, BNC2 controls the expression of specific collagens, matrix metalloproteases and other matrisomal components in breast cancer cells, and in fibroblasts that are primarily responsible for the deposition and processing of the ECM within the tumour microenvironment. In so doing, BNC2 modulates the motile and invasive properties of cancers which likely explains the association of high BNC2 expression with increasing cancer grade and poor patient prognosis.

Project description:Energy metabolism and extracellular matrix function are closely connected to orchestrate and maintain tissue organization, but the crosstalk is poorly understood. Here, we used scRNA-seq analysis to uncover the importance of respiration for extracellular matrix homeostasis in mature cartilage. A combined approach of high-resolution single cell RNA sequencing, mass spectrometry/matrisome analysis and atomic force microscopy was applied to mutant mice with cartilage-specific inactivation of respiratory chain function. Genetic inhibition of respiration in cartilage results in the expansion of a central area of 1-month-old mouse femur head cartilage showing disorganized chondrocytes and increased deposition of extracellular matrix material. scRNA-seq analysis identified a cluster-specific decrease in mitochondrial DNA-encoded respiratory chain genes and a unique regulation of extracellular matrix-related genes in nonarticular chondrocyte clusters. These changes were associated with alterations in extracellular matrix composition, a shift in the collagen/non-collagen protein content and an increase of collagen crosslinking and ECM stiffness. The results demonstrate, based on findings of the scRNA-seq analysis, that respiration is a key factor contributing to ECM integrity and mechanostability in cartilage and presumably also in many other tissues.

Project description:Visual processing depends on sensitive and balanced synaptic neurotransmission. Extracellular matrix proteins in the environment of cells are key modulators in synaptogenesis and synaptic plasticity. In the present study, we provide evidence that the combined loss of the four extracellular matrix components brevican, neurocan, tenascin-C and tenascin-R in quadruple knockout mice leads to severe retinal dysfunction and diminished visual motion processing in vivo. Remarkably, impaired visual motion processing was accompanied by a developmental loss of cholinergic direction-selective starburst amacrine cells. Additionally, we noted imbalance of inhibitory and excitatory synaptic signaling in the quadruple knockout retina. Collectively, the study offers novel insights into the functional importance of four key extracellular matrix proteins for retinal function, visual motion processing and synaptic signaling.
