Aging- and alcohol-associated spatial transcriptomic signature in mouse acute pancreatitis reveals heterogeneity of inflammation and potential pathogenic factors.
The rapidly aging population is consuming more alcohol, leading to increased alcohol-associated acute pancreatitis (AAP) with high mortality. However, the mechanisms remain undefined, and currently there are no effective therapies available. This study aims to elucidate aging- and alcohol-associated spatial transcriptomic signature by establishing an aging AAP mouse model and applying Visium spatial transcriptomics for understanding of the mechanisms in the context of the pancreatic tissue. Upon alcohol diet feeding and caerulein treatment, aging mice (18 months) developed significantly more severe AAP with 5.0-fold increase of injury score and 2.4-fold increase of amylase compared to young mice (3 months). Via Visium spatial transcriptomics, eight distinct tissue clusters were revealed from aggregated transcriptomes of aging and young AAP mice: five acinar, two stromal, and one islet, which were then merged into three clusters: acinar, stromal, and islet for the comparative analysis. Compared to young AAP mice, > 1300 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and approximately 3000 differentially regulated pathways were identified in aging AAP mice. The top five DEGs upregulated in aging AAP mice include Mmp8, Ppbp, Serpina3m, Cxcl13, and Hamp with heterogeneous distributions among the clusters. Taken together, this study demonstrates spatial heterogeneity of inflammatory processes in aging AAP mice, offering novel insights into the mechanisms and potential drivers for AAP development. KEY MESSAGES: Mechanisms regarding high mortality of AAP in aging remain undefined. An aging AAP mouse model was developed recapturing clinical exhibition in humans. Spatial transcriptomics identified contrasted DEGs in aging vs. young AAP mice. Top five DEGs were Mmp8, Ppbp, Serpina3m, Cxcl13, and Hamp in aging vs. young AAP mice. Our findings shed insights for identification of molecular drivers in aging AAP.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Molecular Medicine publishes original research articles and review articles that range from basic findings in mechanisms of disease pathogenesis to therapy. The focus includes all human diseases, including but not limited to:
Aging, angiogenesis, autoimmune diseases as well as other inflammatory diseases, cancer, cardiovascular diseases, development and differentiation, endocrinology, gastrointestinal diseases and hepatology, genetics and epigenetics, hematology, hypoxia research, immunology, infectious diseases, metabolic disorders, neuroscience of diseases, -omics based disease research, regenerative medicine, and stem cell research.
Studies solely based on cell lines will not be considered. Studies that are based on model organisms will be considered as long as they are directly relevant to human disease.
