Project description:Neutrophils are the most abundant immune cells that constantly patrol or marginate inside vascular beds to support immune homeostasis. The extent to which neutrophils undergo reprogramming in response to the changes in vascular architecture and the resultant biological implications of such adaptations remain unclear. Here, we performed intravital imaging and transcriptional profiling to investigate neutrophil behavior across different tissues. Our findings revealed that neutrophils had significant deformability and spontaneous calcium signaling while navigating through the narrow pulmonary vessels. Pulmonary neutrophils exhibited unique transcriptional profiles and were specialized for proangiogenic functions. We found that the mechanosensitive ion channel PIEZO1 was essential for neutrophil reprogramming. Deletion of Piezo1 in neutrophils ablated the lung-specific proangiogenic transcriptional signature and impaired capillary angiogenesis in both physiological and pathological conditions. Collectively, these data show that mechanical adaptation of neutrophils within the pulmonary vasculature drives their reprogramming in the lungs and promotes pulmonary vascular homeostasis.

Project description:Wolff’s law and the Utah Paradigm of skeletal physiology state that bone architecture adapts to mechanical loads. These models predict the existence of a mechanostat that links strain induced by mechanical forces to skeletal remodeling. However, how the mechanostat influences bone remodeling remains elusive. Here, we find that Piezo1 deficiency in osteoblastic cells leads to loss of bone mass and spontaneous fractures with increased bone resorption. Furthermore, Piezo1-deficient mice are resistant to further bone loss and bone resorption induced by hind limb unloading, demonstrating that PIEZO1 can affect osteoblast-osteoclast crosstalk in response to mechanical forces. At the mechanistic level, in response to mechanical loads, PIEZO1 in osteoblastic cells controls the YAP-dependent expression of type II and IX collagens. In turn, these collagen isoforms regulate osteoclast differentiation. Taken together, our data identify PIEZO1 as the major skeletal mechanosensor that tunes bone homeostasis.

Project description:In China, the incidence of fracture non-unions is relatively high. Impaired endochondral ossification may lead to nonunion due to improper mechanical loading. As a mechanosensitive ion channel protein, Piezo1mediates mechanical transduction and induces calcium inward flow. Our early study showed that the osteogenic and angiogenic capacity of chondrocytes was reduced, if Piezo1 gene was knocked out on chondrocytes. Moreover, the expression of mitochondrion translation related gene LARS2 was signaling increased. Therefore, we hypothesize that the mechanical loading may cause endochondral ossification through the Piezo1- LARS2 signaling pathway. We will use conditioned gene knockout mice and Peizo1 knockdown stable cell line to support the hypothesis. Our goals include investigating the changes of Piezo1 expression during endochondral ossification of femoral fracture healing in mice under mechanical loading; investigating the response of Piezo1 channels on chondrocytes to mechanical stimulation and its role and mechanism in regulating chondrocyte osteogenesis and angiogenesis, maintaining the normal mitochondrial function in vitro; analysing the key molecular and signal network downstream of Piezo1 through the multi-omics techniques; and exploring the response mechanism of Piezo1 under vibrating stimulus. This project aims to study the molecular mechanism of Piezo1-mediated force-biological information transition and its role in endochondral ossification. We hope it provides an effective intervention target for preventing and treating fracture nonunion.

Project description:To investigate the effect of Piezo1 in the apoptosis of anulus fibrous cells (AFCs) induced by mechanical stretch. We established AFCs in which Piezo1 channel has been knocked down by shRNA. We then performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RNA-seq of AFCs treated withpLVX-shRNA-Puro(Lv-Ctrl group) and AFCs treated with pLVX-shRNA-Puro-Piezo1(Lv-Piezo1 group).

Project description:Although cells of the immune system experience force and pressure throughout their lifecycle, almost nothing is known about how these mechanical processes regulate the immune response. Immune cells in highly mechanical organs, such as the lung, are constantly exposed to tonic and dynamically changing mechanical cues. Here using reverse genetics, we show that myeloid cells respond to force and alterations in cyclical hydrostatic pressure (CHP) via the mechanosensory ion channel (MSIC) PIEZO1. Unbiased RNA-sequencing from macrophages subjected to CHP reveals a striking state of proinflammatory reprogramming. We report a novel mechanosensory-immune signaling circuit which PIEZO1 initiates in response to CHP, activating c-JUN, upregulating Endothelin-1 (EDN1), and stabilizing HIF1α to facilitate a prolonged program of proinflammatory mediators. Using mice conditionally deficient of PIEZO1 in myeloid cells, and cellular depletion assays, we show infiltrating monocytes respond to cyclical force to recruit neutrophils and clear pulmonary Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection. Furthermore, myeloid PIEZO1 also drove lung pathology in a mouse model of pulmonary fibrosis. Our results demonstrate a novel environmental sensory axis that myeloid cells recognize to mount an inflammatory response, and is the first report showing a physiological role for PIEZO1 and mechanosensation in immunity.

Project description:Ventricular arrhythmogenesis is a key cause of sudden cardiac death following myocardial infarction (MI). Accumulating data show that ischemia, sympathetic activation, and inflammation contribute to arrhythmogenesis. However, the role and mechanisms of abnormal mechanical stress in ventricular arrhythmia following MI remain undefined. We aimed to examine the impact of increased mechanical stress and identify the role of the key sensor Piezo1 in ventricular arrhythmogenesis in MI. Concomitant with increased ventricular pressure, Piezo1, as a newly recognized mechano-sensitive cation channel, was the most up-regulated mechanosensor in the myocardium of patients with advanced heart failure. Piezo1 was mainly located at the intercalated discs and T-tubules of cardiomyocytes, which are responsible for intracellular calcium homeostasis and intercellular communication. Cardiomyocyte-conditional Piezo1 knockout mice (Piezo1Cko) exhibited preserved cardiac function after MI. Piezo1Cko mice also displayed a dramatically decreased mortality in response to the programmed electrical stimulation after MI with a markedly reduced incidence of ventricular tachycardia. In contrast, activation of Piezo1 in mouse myocardium increased the electrical instability as indicated by prolonged QT interval and sagging ST segment. Mechanistically, Piezo1 impaired intracellular calcium cycling dynamics by mediating the intracellular Ca2+overload and increasing the activation of Ca2+-modulated signaling, CaMKII, and calpain, which led to the enhancement of phosphorylation of RyR2 and further increment of Ca2+leaking, finally provoking cardiac arrhythmias. Furthermore, in human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs), Piezo1 activation remarkably triggered cellular arrhythmogenic remodeling by significantly shortening the duration of the action potential, inducing early afterdepolarization, and enhancing triggered activity.This study uncovered a proarrhythmic role of Piezo1 during cardiac remodeling, which is achieved by regulating Ca2+handling, implying a promising therapeutic target in sudden cardiac death and heart failure.

Project description:Tendon tissue growth is promoted by mechanical stimulation, but the mechanism is not well understood. Piezo1, a mechanical stress-responsive channel receptor, is expressed in tendon cells, and the fact that tendon tissue growth was accelerated in Piezo1 gain of function mice suggests that Piezo1 plays an important role in tendon tissue growth. RNA-seq of tendon tissues from these mice showed increased expression of tendon-related genes and decreased expression of muscle-related genes, suggesting that Piezo1 may play a role in maintaining and enhancing the properties of tendon cells.

Project description:Piezo1 is a mechanosensitive ion channel that has gained recognition for its role in regulating diverse physiological processes. However, the influence of Piezo1 in inflammatory disease, including infection and tumor-immunity, is not well-studied. We postulated that Piezo1 links physical forces to immune regulation in myeloid cells. We discovered signal transduction via Piezo1 in myeloid cells and established this channel as the primary sensor of mechanical stress in these cells. Global inhibition of Piezo1 was protective against both cancer and septic shock and resulted in a diminution in suppressive myeloid cells. Moreover, deletion of Piezo1 in myeloid cells protected against cancer and increased survival in poly-microbial sepsis. Mechanistically, we show that mechanical stimulation promotes Piezo1-dependent myeloid cell expansion by suppressing Rb. We further show Piezo1-mediated silencing of Rb is regulated via upregulation of HDAC2. Collectively, our work uncovers Piezo1 as a targetable immune checkpoint that drives immune-suppressive myelopoiesis in cancer and infectious disease.

Project description:Mechanical force is a fundamental regulator of bone development and homeostasis. Mechanosensitive osteocytes are the most abundant bone cells that form interconnected dendrites to respond to mechanical stimuli and interact with the bone-forming osteoblasts and the bone-remodeling osteoclasts. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying osteocyte maturation and dendrite formation remain unclear. By generating a Piezo1 "knock-out" osteocyte cell line, we identified a key role of Piezo1-mediated mechanotransduction in osteocyte differentiation. QRT-PCR analysis revealed delayed osteocyte differentiation in the Piezo1 KO cells relative to WT cells. By performing bulk RNA sequencing of WT and Piezo1 KO OCY454 cells at early (D1), intermediate (D14), and late (D28) stages of differentiation allowed for the identification of key signaling pathways in driving normal osteocyte dfiferentiation, as well as those regulated by Piezo1 mechanotransduction.

Project description:Macrophages play a pivotal role in mechanical force-induced inflammatory bone remodeling. Yet, how macrophages perceive mechanical stimuli and thereby modulate biological behaviors remain elusive. The orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) model was established to access the role of Piezo1 in modulating macrophage response upon mechanical stimuli. The potential functions and molecule mechanisms of Piezo1 were explored by bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) using mechanical stretch system, western blotting, immunofluorescence, flow cytometry and RNA sequencing. We first found macrophage proliferative phenotype enhanced at the later stage of force application. The biological variation mediated by mechanical force could be suppressed by Piezo1 inhibition. Furthermore, Piezo1 activated PI3K-AKT signaling was closely associated with macrophage proliferation upon mechanical stimuli. Additionally, Ccnd1 was authenticated as a critical downstream factor of PI3K-AKT signaling and conditional ablation of Ccnd1 in macrophages inhibited macrophage proliferation in mechanical force-induced bone remodeling procedure.
