Project description:Rationale: Despite the availability of multi-“omics” strategies, insights into the etiology and pathogenesis of sarcoidosis have been elusive. This is partly due to the lack of reliable preclinical models and a paucity of validated biomarkers. As granulomas are a key feature of sarcoidosis, we speculate that direct genomic interrogation of sarcoid tissues, may lead to identification of dysregulated gene pathways or biomarker signatures. Objective: To facilitate the development sarcoidosis genomic biomarkers by gene expression profiling of sarcoidosis granulomas in lung and lymph node tissues (most commonly affected organs) and comparison to infectious granulomas (coccidiodomycosis and tuberculosis).

Project description:Sarcoidosis and tuberculosis share similarities in clinical manifestations and histopathological features. We aimed to identify the microRNA (miRNA) profiles of the lymph nodes of individuals with sarcoidosis and of those with tuberculous lymphadenitis to investigate the value of miRNAs in the differential diagnosis of sarcoidosis and tuberculous lymphadenitis. The miRNA profiles of the lymph nodes of individuals with sarcoidosis, those with tuberculous lymphadenitis (TBLN) and controls were detected by miRNA microarray analysis in the age- and sex-matched development group of the controls (n=3), patients with TBLN (n=3) and patients with sarcoidosis (n=3), and the results were validated by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction in the validation group of the controls (n=30), TBLN (n=30) and patients with sarcoidosis (n=31). The relationship between miRNA expression and the clinical parameters of sarcoidosis was analyzed.

Project description:Sarcoidosis, a systemic granulomatous syndrome invariably affecting the lung, typically spontaneously remits but in ~20% of cases progresses with severe lung dysfunction or cardiac and neurologic involvement (complicated sarcoidosis). Unfortunately, current biomarkers fail to distinguish patients with remitting (uncomplicated) sarcoidosis from other fibrotic lung disorders, and fail to identify individuals at risk for complicated sarcoidosis. We utilized genome-wide peripheral blood gene expression analysis to identify a gene signature distinguishing sarcoidosis from healthy controls, which also served as a molecular signature for complicated sarcoidosis. Total RNA was isolated from PBMCs using standard molecular biology protocols without DNA contamination or RNA degradation. Sample processing (e.g., cDNA generation, fragmentation, end labeling, hybridization to Affymetrix GeneChip Human Exon 1.0 ST arrays) was performed per manufacturer’s instructions. A total of 29 African descent American (AA) and 10 European descent American (EA) patients with sarcoidosis were included in the overall sarcoidosis cohort with 18 AA and 4 EA patients diagnosed with complicated sarcoidosis.

Project description:Introduction: Sarcoidosis is a multisystem immuno-inflammatory disorder of unknown etiology that most commonly involves the lungs. We hypothesized that an unbiased approach to identify pathways activated in alveolar macrophagesâa key immuno-inflammatory cell in the lungâcan shed light on the pathogenesis of this complex disease. Methods: We recruited 15 patients with various stages of sarcoidosis and 12 healthy controls. All subjects underwent bronchoscopy with lavage. For each subject, total RNA was extracted from bronchoalveolar (BAL) cells and hybridized to an Affymetrix GeneChip Human Genome U133A 2.0 microarray. Rigorous statistical methods were applied to identify differential gene expression between subjects with sarcoidosis vs. controls. To better elucidate pathways differentially activated between these groups, we applied gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) to the transcriptional profiles of BAL cells. We used false discovery rate (FDR) < 0.01 to designate significant enrichment. Results: Sarcoid patients were either non-smokers or ex-smokers, all had lung involvement and only 2 were on systemic prednisone. Healthy controls were all non-smokers. Comparison of BAL cell gene expression between sarcoidosis and healthy subjects revealed over 1200 differentially expressed genes at an FDR cutoff < 0.01. Several previously described immune mediators, such as interferon gamma, were up-regulated in the sarcoidosis subjects. Since genes often exert their influence through functionally coherent modules, we performed GSEA based on global expression profiles of alveolar macrophages between the subject groups. We identified more than 200 gene sets enriched in patients with sarcoidosis whereas very few pathways were over-represented in the healthy controls. Many of the sarcoidosis-associated pathways mapped to inflammatory and immune-related processes including T-cell signaling, graft vs. host disease, IL-12, IL-23, and IL-17 pathways, and oxidative phosphorylation. However, we also found and confirmed significant alteration in Proteasome-related pathways. Conclusions: BAL cells in sarcoidosis are characterized by enrichment of distinct transcriptional networks involved in immuno-inflammatory and proteasomal processes. Our findings add to the growing evidence implicating airspace resident cells in the pathogenesis of sarcoidoisis and identify specific pathways whose activation may modulate disease progression.

Project description:Pulmonary sarcoidosis is an inflammatory disease characterized by granuloma formation and heterogeneous clinical outcome. TNF is a proinflammatory cytokine contributing to granuloma formation and high levels of TNF have been shown to associate with progressive disease. Mononuclear phagocytes (MNPs) are potent producers of TNF and highly responsive to inflammation. In sarcoidosis, alveolar macrophages (AMs) have been well studied. However, MNPs also include monocytes/monocyte-derived cells and dendritic cells (DCs) that despite their central role in inflammation are poorly studied in sarcoidosis. We performed in-depth phenotypic, functional and transcriptomic analysis of MNPs subsets from blood and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid from 108 sarcoidosis patients and 30 healthy controls.

Project description:Expansions of CD4+ T cells utilizing TRAV12-1 and TRBV2 were found exclusively in HLA-DR3+ LS patients. These TCRs shared CDR3 homology, suggesting that these T cells are responsible for recognizing sarcoidosis-associated antigen(s) and are involved in the local alveolitis.
