Project description:Many neutrophilic asthma patients do not respond to current medications, highlighting the need for novel therapeutic targets. Here, we investigated the role of intraflagellar transport (IFT) complex protein IFT20 in neutrophilic asthma. Mice lacking CD4+ T cell-specific IFT20 displayed reduced protease-induced neutrophilic asthma inflammation. Thus, IFT20 may represent a promising therapeutic target for treatment of patients with neutrophilic asthma.

Project description:Neutrophilic asthma is associated with disease severity and corticosteroid insensitivity. Novel therapies are required to manage this life-threatening asthma phenotype. Programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1) is a key homeostatic modulator of the immune response for T cell effector functions. Our study was conducted to assess the therapeutic potential of a novel human PD-1 agonist in a humanized mouse model in which the PD-1 extracellular domain is entirely humanized. Using single-cell RNA sequencing, we demonstrated that PD-1 agonist treatment alleviates lung inflammation via the reprogramming of pulmonary effector T cells.

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A), the most abundant RNA modification, plays the essential role in the immune disorders. Yet, the role of m6A and its master regulator, methyltransferase-like 3 (METTL3) in asthma remain ambiguous. Here, we found that macrophage deficient in METTL3 aggravates the ovalbumin/lipopolysaccharide (OVA/LPS)-induced neutrophilic asthma. Subsequently, we observed that METTL3 deficiency facilitates NLRP3 but not AIM2 and NLRC4-dependent inflammasome activation and IL-1β secretion. Mechanistically, METTL3 deficiency enhanced NLRP3 inflammasome activation were dependent on upregulation of ZBP1 and TRAF1. Lastly, we elucidated that METTL3 negatively regulates ZBP1 expression through m6A modification dependence. In summary, the study unveils the function of m6A in regulating NLRP3 inflammasome activation in macrophage and identifies potential targets in therapeutic intervention of neutrophilic asthma.

Project description:The mechanism of neutrophilic and mixed neutrophilic-eosinophilic asthma is poorly understood. We found that extracellular DNA and nucleosomes (Nucs) were elevated in the airways from neutrophilic-eosinophilic asthma patients and correlated with bronchoalveolar lavage neutrophils. Bronchial tissue from neutrophilic-eosinophilic asthma expressed increased DNA sensor-positive cells. Intranasally administered DNA did not induce airway hyperreactivity (AHR) or any pathology but induced AHR and neutrophilic-eosinophilic inflammation when co- administered with the allergen Alternaria (Alt). Nucs alone induced anti-inflammatory/defensive genes whereas the Nuc-Alt combo increased TNFα and innate cytokines. The Alt-Nuc phenotype was abolished in cGas-/- , Alr-/- , Sting-/- , LysMcre:Stingf/f, Il7rcre:Roraf/f and Tnfrsf1b-/- mice. Alt, unexpectedly, played an essential role in the Nuc-induced phenotype. It abrogated Nuc-induction of anti_x0002_inflammatory genes, facilitated Nuc uptake, induced ILC2s, which, in presence of Nucs, produced high levels of TNFα and promoted neutrophilic infiltration. We established a paradigm where allergens inhibit the anti-inflammatory effects of DNA/Nucs and facilitate STING-TNFα-driven neutrophilic-eosinophilic inflammation in asthma.

Project description:Asthma is a complex, chronic respiratory disease with marked clinical and pathophysiological heterogeneity. Distinct inflammatory phenotypes of eosinophilic, mixed, neutrophilic and paucigranulocytic asthma are identified in patients, but most in vivo mouse models, studying asthma mechanisms, mimic only eosinophilic phenotype in humans. The detailed unbiased in vivo studies on molecular responses among different kinds of inflammation in asthma models are lacking. Therefore, we developed mouse models representing three different inflammatory phenotypes of airway inflammation, namely eosinophilic, mixed, and neutrophilic asthma via different methods of house dust mite sensitisation. We used microarrays to determine the global gene expression in the lungs of mice with eosinophilic, mixed and neutrophilic inflammatory phenotypes to uncover underlying differences in clinical presentation and to find novel molecular targets and pathways, which might reflect different molecular mechanisms of the disease. By whole genome transcriptome profiling, we found that airway tight junction (TJ) molecules, mucins and inflammasome-related genes are differentially expressed in distinct phenotypes of allergic airway inflammation. Next, detailed analysis of several molecules from these families by quantitative RT-PCR, western blot and confocal microscopy revealed that (i) Zo-1 and Cldn18 were downregulated in all phenotypes, while Cldn4 upregulation was characteristic for neutrophilic airway inflammation; (ii) mucins Clca1 (Gob5) and Muc5ac were upregulated in eosinophilic and even more in neutrophilic asthma, and (iii) upregulation of inflammasome-related molecules such as Nlrp3, Nlrc4, Casp-1 and IL-1b was characteristic for neutrophilic asthma. Finally, we showed that inflammasome/Th-17/neutrophilic axis cytokines, namely IL-1b and IL-17 impaired epithelial barrier function and increased mucins expressions in primary human bronchial epithelial cells from normal and asthmatic donors. Our findings suggest that differential expression of TJs, mucins and inflammasome-related molecules in distinct asthma phenotypes could be mechanistically linked and might further reflect the differences observed in the clinic.

Project description:Group 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3s) have emerged as an important player in the pathogenesis of neutrophilic asthma. However, the regulatory mechanism supporting ILC3 responses in lung remains largely unclear. Here, we demonstrated that stem cell factor (SCF) expression is significantly increased and positively correlated with IL-17A and MPO expression in asthmatic patients. Notably, we identified ILC3 as a major IL-17A-producing responder to SCF in lung. In mice, SCF synergized with IL-1β/IL-23 to enhance pulmonary ILC3 activation and neutrophilic inflammation. Mechanistically, SCF promoted ILC3 proliferation and cytokine production. Transcriptomic analysis revealed that SCF treatment upregulated the genes related to proliferation and Th17 differentiation, associated with increased AKT and STAT3 signaling. In contrast, deficiency of SCF receptor, c-Kit, reduced ILC3 proliferation and IL-17A production, resulting in the amelioration of airway hyperreactivity (AHR) and neutrophilic inflammation in mouse neutrophilic asthma model. Furthermore, genetic deletion of SCF in fibroblasts revealed fibroblasts as the primary source of SCF for ILC3 activation in lung. Moreover, administration of imatinib, a c-Kit inhibitor, alleviated LPS, air pollution or ovalbumin/LPS-induced AHR and neutrophilic inflammation. Our findings elucidated a positive modulatory role of SCF/c-Kit signaling in ILC3 responses during neutrophilic inflammation, offering a potential therapeutic target for neutrophilic asthma.

Project description:Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) are known to be important in many diseases. There has been some reports that lncRNA take part in the pathogenesis of systemic inflammation of asthma. lncRNA regulates gene transcription, protein expression and epigenetic regulation. However, the lncRNAs associated with differently airway phenotype such as eosinophilic and neutrophilic asthma remains unknown. We aimed at identifying the differences in circulating lncRNA signature in Eos and Neu samples. lncRNA expression were studied between blood samples from Eos patients, Neu patients and healthy individuals (Control). Bioinformatic analysis was used to describe relevant biological pathways. Using quantitative real-time PCR, lncRNA expression was measured. Comparing with Control samples, Eos sample has 190 own lncRNA and Neu sample has 166 own lncRNA(difference ≥ 2-fold). KEGG pathway annotation data and GO terms revealed that several lncRNAs are possibly associated with respective phenotype. lncRNA was identifying to differ significantly between Eos and Neu samples by using qRT-PCR. The results show us that lncRNA may be involved in different phenotypes of asthma. Whether we can recognize different phenotypes of asthma through these lncRNA (as biomarkers) needs further study.

Project description:Objective: The aim of the current study was to use circulating immune cells to define gene expression patterns that best distinguish between different asthma phenotypes. We hypothesised that analysing gene expression patterns in unstimulated cells would be of limited value, and that variations in gene expression patterns would be most apparent in the setting of RV stimulation. Methods: Peripheral blood mononuclear cells samples from adults with persistent asthma of different inflammatory subtypes were stimulated with RV in vitro with RNA sequencing and bioinformatics used to define gene expression patterns. Results: RV-induced changes in gene expression differed markedly between neutrophilic asthma (NA) and other asthma phenotypes. Expression of many anti-viral immune pathways and their regulators genes was down regulated in NA compared to the other phenotypes, accompanied by enhanced expression of chemokine genes, proinflammatory cytokines and Y chromosome linked genes. These changes were detected in circulating, bone marrow-derived immune cells and were most apparent in RV-stimulated rather than resting cells.
