GWI Mouse model SIDL - Complementary proteomic approaches reveal mitochondrial dysfunction, immune and inflammatory dysregulation in a mouse model of gulf war illness

ABSTRACT: Long term consequences of combined pyridostigmine bromide and permethrin exposure in C57BL6/J mice using a well characterized mouse model of exposure to these Gulf War agents. Expanding on earlier work, we used orthogonal proteomic approaches to identify pathways that are chronically impacted in the mouse CNS due to semi-acute GW agent exposure early in life. These analyses were performed on soluble and membrane-bound protein fractions from brain samples using two orthogonal isotopic labeling LC-MS/MS proteomic approaches – stable isotope dimethyl labeling (SIDL) and isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ). The use of these approaches allowed for greater coverage of proteins than was possible by either one alone and revealed both distinct and overlapping datasets. This combined analysis identified changes in several mitochondrial, as well as immune and inflammatory pathways after GW agent exposure. The work discussed here provides insight into GW-agent exposure dependent mechanisms that adversely affect mitochondrial function and immune and inflammatory regulation at five months post exposure to PB+PER.

<h4>Purpose</h4>Long-term consequences of combined pyridostigmine bromide (PB) and permethrin (PER) exposure in C57BL6/J mice using a well-characterized mouse model of exposure to these Gulf War (GW) agents were explored at the protein level.<h4>Experimental design</h4>We used orthogonal proteomic approaches to identify pathways that are chronically impacted in the mouse CNS due to semiacute GW agent exposure early in life. These analyses were performed on soluble and membrane-bound protein frac ...[more]

Project description:Numerous cytokines have been shown to affect epithelial cell differentiation and proliferation through epithelial-mesenchymal interaction. Growing evidence suggests that platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) signaling is an important mediator of these interactions. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of PDGF-α on enterocyte turnover in a rat model of short bowel syndrome (SBS). Male rats were divided into four groups: Sham rats underwent bowel transection, Sham-PDGF-α rats underwent bowel transection and were treated with PDGF-α, SBS rats underwent a 75% bowel resection, and SBS-PDGF-α rats underwent bowel resection and were treated with PDGF-α. Parameters of intestinal adaptation, enterocyte proliferation and apoptosis were determined at sacrifice. Illumina's Digital Gene Expression (DGE) analysis was used to determine PDGF-related gene expression profiling. PDGF-α and PDGF-α receptor (PDGFR-α) expression was determined using Real Time PCR. Western blotting was used to determine p-ERK, Akt1/2/3, bax and bcl-2 protein levels. SBS rats demonstrated a significant increase in PDGF-α and PDGFR-α expression in jejunum and ileum compared to sham animals. SBS-PDGF-α rats demonstrated a significant increase in bowel and mucosal weight, villus height and crypt depth in jejunum and ileum compared to SBS animals. PDGF-α expression in crypts increased in SBS rats (vs sham) and was accompanied by increased cell proliferation following PDGF-α administration. A significant decrease in cell apoptosis in this group was correlated with lower bax protein levels. In conclusion, in a rat model of SBS, PDGF-α stimulates enterocyte turnover, which is correlated with up-regulated PDGF-α receptor expression in the remaining small intestine. Animals were divided randomly into two experimental groups of 6 rats each. Group A rats underwent bowel transection and re-anastomosis (Sham), Group B animals underwent 75% bowel resection (SBS). Due to the quality of DNA, we performed final analysis from 5 jejunal samples (1 sham and 4 resected rats) and from 7 ileal samples (3 sham and 4 resected rats). Illumina's Digital Gene Expression (DGE) analysis using Illumina Rat Quad BeadChips was used to determine PDGF-related gene expression profiling.

Project description:We have previously reported that the deficiency of p53 alone or in combination with Rb (Rb-/- p53-/-) in adipose-derived MSCs (ASCs) promotes leiomyosarcoma-like tumors in vivo. Here, we hypothesized that the source of MSCs and/or the cell differentiation stage could determine the phenotype of sarcoma development. To investigate whether there is a link between the source of MSCs and sarcoma phenotype, we generated p53-/- and Rb-/-p53-/- MSCs from bone marrow (BM-MSCs). Both genotypes of BM-MSCs initiated leiomyosarcoma formation similar to p53-/- and Rb-/-p53-/- ASCs. In addition, gene expression profiling revealed a link between p53- or Rb-p53-deficient BM-MSCs and ASCs and muscle-associated sarcomagenesis. These data suggest that the tissue source of MSC does not seem a crucial factor in the development of a particular sarcoma phenotype. To analyze whether the differentiation stage defines the sarcoma phenotype, BM-MSCs and ASCs were induced to differentiate towards the osteogenic lineage, and both p53 and Rb were excised using Cre-expressing adenovectors at different stages along osteogenic differentiation. Regardless of the level of osteogenic commitment, the inactivation of Rb and p53 in BM-MSC-derived, but not in ASC-derived, osteogenic progenitors gave rise to osteosarcoma-like tumors which could be serially transplanted. This indicates that the osteogenic differentiation stage of BM-MSCs imposes the phenotype of in vivo sarcoma development, and that BM-MSC-derived osteogenic progenitors rather than undifferentiated BM-MSCs, undifferentiated ASCs or ASC-derived osteogenic progenitors, represent the cell of origin for osteosarcoma development. BM-MSC and ASC cultures were established from 3 mouse strains: (a) WT, (b) p53loxP/loxP and (c) p53loxP/loxP RbloxP/loxP. The corresponding mutant cells were generated by excision of the LoxP-flanked sequences by infection of all MSC cultures with adenoviral vectors expressing the Cre-recombinase gene (Ad-CMV-Cre). NSG mice were inoculated subcutaneously with 5×10^6 mutant cells. Animals were killed when tumors reached 1 cm3 or 150 days after infusion. Some of the obtained tumors were mechanically disaggregated to establish ex vivo MSC-transformed cell lines. Gene expression analysis was performed using BM-MSCs and ASCs from all genotypes, as well as tumor cell lines derived from p53-/- and p53-/-Rb-/- BM-MSC and ASC cultures.
