Project description:Microbial Biomarkers of Intestinal Barrier Maturation in Preterm Infants
| PRJEB29365 | ENA
Project description:Preterm birth disrupts the critical maturation of the intestinal epithelium, leading to compromised digestive and absorptive functions. This study explores the potential of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) to promote the maturation of human preterm intestinal epithelial cells. By establishing human preterm intestinal organoids derived from the ileal tissue of a neonate born at 27 weeks gestational age, we demonstrate that treatment with EVs, particularly the EV39 line, significantly enhances the expression of adult-type enterocyte markers, including genes involved in lipid and nutrient transport, digestive enzymes, and epithelial barrier integrity. These maturation signatures were identified through reanalysis of multiple single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) datasets, revealing distinct enterocyte differentiation trajectories and key maturation-specific gene expression profiles. Notably, these maturation effects were dependent on cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) activity, as CFTR inhibition reversed the observed benefits. Proteomic analysis identified FGF2 and TGFβ1 as key ligands mediating the effects of EV39. Co-treatment with FGF2 and TGFβ1 further enhanced epithelial barrier integrity and fatty acid uptake, highlighting the translational potential of EV39 or its ligands in promoting intestinal functional maturation in preterm infants.

Project description:Colonizing commensal bacteria after birth are required for the proper development of the gastrointestinal tract. It is believed that bacterial colonization pattern in neonatal gut affects gut barrier function and immune system maturation. Studies on the development of faecal flora microbiota in infants on various formula feeds showed that the neonatal gut was first colonized with enterococci followed by other flora microbiota such as Bifidobacterium in breast feeding infants. Intriguingly, Bjorksten group Other studies showed that Bbabies who developed allergy were less often colonized with Enterococcus during the first month of life as compared to healthy infants. A lot of Many studies have been done on conducted to elucidate how bifidobacteria or lactobacilli, some of which are considered probiotic, regulate infant gut immunity. However, much fewer studies have been focused on enterococi. In our study, we demonstrate that E. faecalis, isolated from healthy newborns, suppress inflammatory responses activated in vivo and in vitro. We found E. faecalis attenuates proinflammatory cytokine secretions, especially IL-8, through JNK and p38 signaling pathways. This finding shed light on how the first colonizer, E.faecalis, regulate inflammatory responses in the host. Samples are analysed using web-based GEArray Expression Analysis Suite

Project description:Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is a devastating inflammatory bowel necrosis of very preterm infants with limited therapeutic approaches. Mounting evidence supports the role of Piezo1, a widely distributed mechanosensor on intestinal epithelial cells (IECs), in intestinal inflammation, but its underlying mechanism in the development of NEC has not been explored. Here we demonstrated that Piezo1 protein expression was higher in very preterm infants compared to full-term infants, and positively associated with serum inflammation levels in NEC patients. C57BL/6J mice in which Piezo1 was selectively deleted IECs (villin specific knockout; CKO) and floxed control mice were subjected to induce NEC, and Piezo1 regulated intestinal barrier function, restricted cytokines secretion, and diminished the inflammatory response in NEC mouse models.

Project description:Preterm infants are highly susceptible to sustained lung inflammation, which may be triggered by exposure to multiple environmental cues such as supplemental oxygen (O2) and infections. The underlying mechanisms are still poorly understood. The hypothesis of this study is that dysregulated macrophage activation is a key feature leading to inflammation-mediated development of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in preterm infants.
Cord blood samples of preterm infants (n=14) and term infants (n=19) as well as peripheral blood from healthy adults (n=17) were collected. Age-dependent differences in immune responses of monocyte-derived Mä from preterm infants were characterized and compared to term infants and adults after lipopolysaccharide (LPS) exposure.

Project description:Hyperoxia is known to cause cerebral white matter injury in preterm infants with male sex being identified as an independent risk factor for poor neurodevelopmental outcome. We investigated the underlying mechanisms behind such a sex dependent difference by a comaparative protein profiling of male and female murine progenitor oligodendrocytes treated with 3 % or 80% oxygen. We demonstrate that following hyperoxia, the male derived oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs) are severely affected with respect to their energy metabolism, stress response and especially, maturation as compared to their female counterparts.

Project description:Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is the most common and lethal gastrointestinal disease affecting preterm infants. NEC develops suddenly and is characterized by gut barrier destruction, an inflammatory response, intestinal necrosis and multi-system organ failure. There is currently no method for early NEC detection, and the pathogenesis of NEC remains unclear.

Project description:Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), a blinding condition affecting preterm infants, accounts for up to 40% of all childhood blindness worldwide. ROP is an interruption of retinal vascular maturation, which is physiologically complete at full term and thus ongoing at the time of preterm birth. Although ROP demonstrates delayed onset following preterm birth, representing a window for therapeutic intervention, we cannot cure or prevent this disease. The in-utero environment, including placental function, is increasingly recognized for contributions to preterm infant disease risk. Herein, we examine the clinical associations between presence and severity of acute placental inflammation to ROP risk. Using logistic regression, we find a protective relationship between presence and severity of acute placental inflammation and preterm infant development of ROP. This is most significant for infants born in the absence of maternal preeclampsia. Further, we examine the underlying molecular mediators that may inform this protective paradigm. Adopting a candidate approach analyzing proteins with described ROP risk associations, we find that placental HTRA1 and FABP4 protein expression is significantly decreased within placental tissues characterized by acute inflammation. Additionally, HTRA1 and VEGFA demonstrate inverse longitudinal trends within the peripheral circulation for infants born in the presence compared to absence of acute placental inflammation. An agnostic approach, including whole transcriptome and differential methylation placental analysis, identifies novel mediators and pathways that may underly protection. Taken together, these data build on emerging literature showing disparate associations between acute placental inflammation and ROP development within preeclamptic or non-preeclamptic preterm infant populations and identifies novel placental mechanisms that may inform postnatal risk associations in preterm infants.
