Project description:Abdominal surgeries are lifesaving procedures but can be complicated by the formation of peritoneal adhesions, intra-abdominal scars that cause intestinal obstruction, pain, infertility, and significant health costs. Despite this burden, the mechanisms underlying adhesion formation remain unclear and no cure exists. Here, we show that contamination of gut microbes increases post-surgical adhesion formation. Using genetic lineage tracing we show that adhesion myofibroblasts arose from the mesothelium. This transformation was driven by epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling. The EGFR ligands Amphiregulin and Heparin-binding Epidermal Growth Factor, were sufficient to induce these changes. Correspondingly, EGFR inhibition led to a significant reduction of adhesion formation in mice. Adhesions isolated from human patients were enriched in EGFR positive cells of mesothelial origin and human mesothelium showed an increase of mesothelial EGFR expression during bacterial peritonitis. In conclusion, bacterial contamination drives adhesion formation through mesothelial EGFR signaling. This mechanism may represent a therapeutic target for the prevention of adhesions after intra-abdominal surgery.

Project description:Malignant mesothelioma (MM) is an aggressive tumor strongly associated with asbestos exposure. The granuloma capturing crocidolite contribute to mutagenesis, cell death and regenerative activity. To clarify the biological responses of mesothelial cells after crocidolite exposure, we compared the microarray gene expression profiles of no treatment and crocidolite exposure (1 wks) mesothelial cells induced by intraperitoneal injections.

Project description:Visceral adipose tissue inflammation correlates with metabolic dysfunction in obesity. However, critical cell types that trigger and contribute to inflammation in this depot are not completely understood. Mesothelial cells line the omental fat depot and are thought to contribute to several intraperitoneal inflammatory conditions. Whether adipose-associated mesothelial cell inflammation is a feature of pathologic obesity is unclear. This study was performed to delineate a contribution of omental adipose mesothelial cells to visceral adipose tissue dysfunction in pathologic obesity. We performed a cross-sectional case-control study from two separate cohorts of patients undergoing abdominal surgery with varying degrees of obesity and metabolic disease. Whole-genome expression profiling was conducted on mesothelial cells isolated from lean and obese surgical patients to determine differences in relevant pathways related to obesity and metabolic disease.

Project description:Encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis (EPS) is a life-threatening fibrotic condition characterized by severe abdominal adhesions, chronic inflammation, and significant morbidity. The lack of effective treatments for EPS stems from a limited understanding of its underlying mechanisms. Previous EPS models relied on intraperitoneal injection of surgical hygiene solution (SHS), requiring 8 weeks to establish. Here, we modified the model by integrating both PD and lipopolysaccharide (LPS), leading to the formation of stable adhesions in just 3 weeks.This model better simulates the pathophysiological progression of EPS by reflecting more clinically relevant risk factors, such as PD and peritonitis, and captures key features like inflammatory infiltration and extracellular matrix (ECM) deposition.

Project description:Asbestos-associated diseases remain a social burden worldwide. Our previous studies identified asbestos-induced iron-rich milieu for mesothelial cells with ceaseless macrophage ferroptosis. However, molecular mechanisms how this mutagenic milieu influences mesothelial cells have not been elucidated yet. Here, we propose a novel mechanism that extracellular vesicles (EVs) mediate asbestos-associated mutagenic factors to mesothelial cells. In a mice model of intraperitoneal crocidolite injection, mutagenic milieu highly expressed CD63, an exosomal marker. We then used a CD63-GFP labeled THP-1 macrophage model exposed to crocidolite/iron, which generated EVs under ferroptotic process. We observed that MeT-5A mesothelial cells can receive and internalize these EVs. Furthermore, we comprehensively analyzed the ferroptosis-dependent EVs (FedEVs) for transported proteins and identified ferritin heavy/light chains as major proteins. Therefore, we inferred that FedEVs transport iron from ferroptotic macrophages to mesothelial cells. RNA sequencing revealed that the mesothelial cells receiving higher amounts of the FedEVs were mitotic, especially at the S and G2/M phases, by the use of Fucci mesothelial cells. Nuclear 8-hydroxy-2`-deoxyguanosine and γ-H2AX were significantly increased in the recipient mesothelial cells after exposure to FedEVs. Collectively, we here demonstrate a novel mechanism that FedEVs act as a key mutagenic mediator by transporting iron, which contribute to asbestos-induced mesothelial carcinogenesis.

Project description:Local factors produced in the tissue microenvironment play essential roles in promoting the ontogeny and phenotype of tissue resident macrophages (TRM). In the peritoneal cavity, large peritoneal macrophages (LPM) are the dominant TRMs that functionally mediate type 2 immunity, facilitate tissue repair of the mesothelium, and protect against peritoneal fibrosis. It is established that retinoic acid derived from the omentum induces transcription factor Gata6 expression in LPMs, which in turn regulates gene expression of factors that define peritoneal macrophages. It is still unclear whether retinoic acid is the sole local factor that regulates Gata6 expression in LPMs. Mesothelial cells line the entire peritoneal cavity and produce a protective, non-adhesive barrier against injury, at least in part by recruiting immune cells with secreted cytokines, such as M-CSF. We hypothesized that secreted factors from peritoneal mesothelial cells are also responsible for regulating LPM development including both ontogeny and function. Due to their immediate proximity to the peritoneal cavity, we propose that mesothelial cells can produce and secrete proteins into the peritoneum to maintain Gata6 expression by LPMs. To identify secreted factors that are highly and specifically expressed in mesothelial cells, we harvested primary mesothelial cells from 10-week-old C57BL/6 mice using FACS selection (CD45- PDPN+ GPM6a+). Total RNA was isolated from these cells and subjected to RNA-seq analysis after depletion of ribosomal RNA.
