Global Proteome Profiling of Human Fetal Nucleus Pulposus tissues

ABSTRACT: Intervertebral disc degeneration is accompanied by a loss of Extra-cellular matrix (ECM) content due to an imbalance in anabolic and catabolic pathways. Identifying ECM proteins with anabolic and/or regenerative potential could be the key to developing regenerative therapies. Since human fetal discs grow and develop very rapidly, studying these discs may provide valuable insights on proteins with regenerative potential. Hence, the aim of this explorative study is to identify proteins of interest for future therapies through profiling the global proteome of human fetal NP’s.

Profiling extra cellular matrix core proteome of human fetal nucleus pulposus in search for regenerative targets

Project description:Intervertebral disc degeneration is accompanied by a loss of Extra-cellular matrix (ECM) content due to an imbalance in anabolic and catabolic pathways. Identifying ECM proteins with anabolic and/or regenerative potential could be the key to developing regenerative therapies. Since human fetal discs grow and develop very rapidly, studying these discs may provide valuable insights on proteins with regenerative potential. This study compares core matrisome of 9 fetal and 7 healthy adult (age 22-79) nucleus pulposus (NP), using a proteomic and bioinformatic approach. In order to assess whether the protein that decrease from fetus to healthy adult NP’s further decrease in severely degenerated discs, expression levels of all proteins of interest that were identified in regenerative pathways were used for an additional analysis

Proteomic Signature of Nucleus Pulposus of Human Intervertebral Disc

Project description:Intervertebral Disc (IVD) degeneration leading to Low back pain (LBP) is the most common musculoskeletal disorder. Lack of knowledge on the intricate homeostatic mechanisms necessitates proteomic characterisation of a normal human IVD to understand the biological process and unravel the pathomechanisms of degenerative disc disease (DDD). In this study, we employed proteomic approach coupled with tandem mass-spectrometry to derive the comprehensive list of proteins expressed in true biologically normal control discs. This would serve as the basis for identifying the interacting molecules participating in significant biological processes and pathways disrupted during aging and degeneration.

Can Scoliotic Discs be Controls for Molecular Studies in Intervertebral Disc Research?- Insights from Proteomics.

Project description:Research on disc degeneration has been heterogeneous in their use of control discs used for comparison with diseased discs. Discs from scoliosis, cadavers and voluntary organ donors are the common controls used in intervertebral disc research. In order to find out the ideal control among these discs, the characters of scoliotic discs and discs from MRI normal voluntary organ donors controls used in disc research has been analysed using proteomics and to establish 'True Controls' that can be utilized for future Intervertebral disc (IVD) research.

stseranidou2024 - Nucleus Pulposus Cell Network Modelling in the Intervertebral Disc

Project description:ABSTRACT: Intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) arises from an intricate imbalance between the anabolic and catabolic processes governing the extracellular matrix (ECM) within the disc. Biochemical processes are complex, redundant and feedback-looped, and improved integration of knowledge is needed. To addess this, a literature-based regulatory network model (RNM) for nucleus pulposus cells (NPC) is proposed, representing the normal state of the intervertebral disc (IVD), in which proteins are represented by nodes that interact among each other through activation and/or inhibition edges. This model includes 32 different proteins and 150 edges by incorporating critical biochemical interactions in IVD regulation, tested in vivo or vitro in humans’ and animals’ NPC, alongside non tissue specific protein-protein interactions. We used the network to calculate the dynamic regulation of each node through a semi-quantitative method. The basal steady state successfully represented the activity of a normal NPC, and the model was assessed through the published literature, by replicating two independent experimental studies in human normal NPC. Pro-catabolic or pro-anabolic shifts of the network activated by nodal perturbations could be predicted. Sensitivity analysis underscores the significant influence of transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) and interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra) on the regulation of structural proteins and degrading enzymes within the system. Given the ongoing challenge of elucidating the mechanisms driving ECM degradation in IDD, this unique IVD RNM holds promise as a tool for exploring and predicting IDD progression, shedding light on IVD phenotypes and guiding experimental research efforts.

Injectable ECM-mimetic dynamic hydrogels abolish ferroptosis-induced post-discectomy herniation through in-situ delivery of nucleus pulposus progenitor cell-derived exosomes [RNA-Seq]

Project description:The discectomy-induced ferroptosis stress on nucleus pulposus cells (NPCs) is a major cause for postoperative lumbar disc herniation (LDH) recurrence and intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD). Surprisingly, we discovered that nucleus pulposus progenitor cells (NPPCs) could transmit their ferroptosis-resistant phenotype to recipient NPCs through exosome-dependent cell-cell communication while identifying miR-221-3p as the primary anti-ferroptosis effector molecule therein. Based on these findings, we first developed a synthetically-tailored NPPC-derived exosomes with enhanced miR-221-3p expression and NPC uptake capacity through molecular and cellular engineering, which were then integrated into an injectable hydrogel based on extracellular matrix (ECM) analogues. The ECM-mimetic hydrogel (HACS) serves as a biomimetic filler for the post-operative care of herniated discs, which could be facilely injected into the discectomy-established nucleus pulposus (NP) cavity for localized treatment. HACS-mediated in-situ exosome release in the NP cavity enabled marked ferroptosis inhibition in NPCs that not only prevented LDH recurrence but also reversed the IDD symptoms, leading to robust restoration of NP structure and functions. This study offers a promising approach for the treatment of herniated discs with translational potential.

Discovery and application of postnatal nucleus pulposus progenitors essential for intervertebral disc homeostasis and degeneration.

Project description:Intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) results from dysfunction of nucleus pulposus cells (NPs) and exhaustion of NP progenitors (ProNPs). Cellular applications of NPs during IDD are currently limited by lack of in vivo studies showing whether NPs are heterogenous and contain ProNPs throughout postnatal stages. Here, using single-cell RNA sequencing of purified NPs, we mapped four molecularly defined populations and identified Urotensin II receptor (UTS2R)-expressing postnatal ProNPs, which markedly exhausted during IDD, in mouse and human specimens. Lineage tracing showed that UTS2R+ ProNPs preferentially reside in the NP periphery with its niche factor-Tenascin-C and give rise to functional NPs. We also demonstrate that transplanting UTS2R+ ProNPs with Tenascin-C to injured intervertebral discs attenuates the progression of IDD. Our findings provide a novel NP cell atlas, identify resident ProNPs with regenerative potential and reveal promising diagnostic and therapeutic targets for IDD.

Chromatin landscape changes of regenerating wing imaginal discs

Project description:We report the changes in chromatin accessibility associated with regeneration in wing imaginal discs at two developmental timepoints during L3. Wing discs were ablated using tissue-specific expression of the pro-apoptotic gene eiger at an early timepoint (day 7) when the discs retain high regenerative capacity and at a late time point (day 9) when regenerative capacity has significantly declined. ATAC-seq was performed on these discs after 40 hr of ablation and compared to identically staged unablated discs. We detect 14,142 open chromatin peaks after merging overlapping peaks from 3 biological repeats of all 4 conditions. Of these, 349 change significantly (log2fc>0.5, p<0.1) either opening or closing upon damage in early L3 discs, while only 55 open or close in late L3 discs. We describe two consequential groups of peak changes, those that are damage responsive (DR) in early L3 (222 peaks) and those that are maturity silenced (MS), open in early damaged L3 and closed in late damaged L3 (729 peaks). 28 peaks fall in the overlap of these two groups.

JAK/STAT coordinates cell proliferation during disc regeneration with Dilp8-mediated developmental delay in Drosophila melanogaster

Project description:Regeneration of fragmented Drosophila imaginal discs occurs in an epimorphic manner, involving local cell proliferation at the wound site. Following disc fragmentation, cells at the wound site activate a restoration program through wound healing, regenerative cell proliferation and repatterning of the tissue. However, the interplay of signaling cascades, driving these early reprogramming steps, is not well understood. Here we profiled the transcriptome of regenerating cells in the early phase within twenty-four hours after wounding. We found that JAK/STAT signaling becomes activated at the wound site and promotes regenerative cell proliferation in cooperation with Wingless (Wg) signaling. In addition, we demonstrated that the expression of Drosophila insulin-like peptide 8 (dilp8), which encodes a paracrine peptide to delay the onset of pupariation, is controlled by JAK/STAT signaling in early regenerating discs. Our findings suggest that JAK/STAT signaling plays a pivotal role in coordinating regenerative disc growth with organismal developmental timing. In order to analyze transcriptome change in early regenerating imaginal disc, Drosophila prothorasic leg discs were fragmented (to anterior one-quarter or posterior three-quarters) and cultured ex vivo in adult fly abdomen. Regenerating cells in early regeneration phase (at 12 or 24 hours after wounding) were subjected to transcriptome profiling with Affymetrix microarrays. For control samples, the corresponding regions of uncut-cultured discs and uncut-uncultured discs were used.

Secretome characterization of nucleus pulposus (NP) cells subjected to ER stress

Project description:Objective: Induction of ER stress has been shown to promote NP cell apoptosis and disc degeneration. However, little is known about its regulation by hypoxia and its contribution to extracellular matrix homeostasis. Methods: NP cells were culture under hypoxia (1% O2) and normoxia (21% O2) to assess ER stress status. Tunicamycin and thapsigargin were used to induce canonical ER stress pathways and effects on cell secretome were assessed by proteomic analysis using mass spectrometry. The relevance of these findings to aging and degeneration was investigated by analyzing microarray data of NP tissues from aged mice (GSE134955) and degenerated human discs (GSE70362). Results: NP cells exhibited lower ER stress levels under hypoxia. ER stress inducers tunicamycin and thapsigargin promoted a canonical unfolded protein response. UPR further induced HIF-1 activity under hypoxia. NP cell secretome under ER stress showed an increased secretory pathway with a concomitant decrease in collagens, HAPLN1, and cell adhesion related proteins. Similar to our cell culture studies, NP tissues from aged mice and degenerated human discs presented higher levels of UPR markers and decreased levels of matrix components.
