Description

Establishment and application of spontaneous pulmonary artery high-pressure model
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of genetic engineering, and particularly relates to establishment and application of a spontaneous pulmonary artery high-pressure rat model.
Background
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension, PAH) is a type of malignant pulmonary vascular disease characterized by progressive increases in pulmonary vascular resistance, ultimately leading to patient death from severe right ventricular failure. PAH prognosis is extremely poor, with early untreated patients with median survival of 2.8 years after diagnosis and survival rate of only 21% 5 years.
Gene mutation is an important cause of pulmonary hypertension. Hereditary pulmonary arterial hypertension (heritable pulmonary arterial hypertension, HPAH) is a monogenic autosomal dominant inherited disease. BMPR2 is the first discovered HPAH causative gene, and is also the most prominent HPAH causative gene known at present, accounting for 14-30% of idiopathic pulmonary hypertension etiology and 60-70% of familial pulmonary hypertension etiology. PAH patients carrying BMPR2 mutations had an average 7 years earlier onset than non-carriers, had worse clinical phenotypes and had a higher risk of mortality. Therefore, the BMPR2 mutation plays a very important role in pulmonary hypertension occurrence, development and prognosis, and the molecular mechanism of the pathogenic BMPR2 mutation is very important for understanding pulmonary artery vascular remodeling disease mechanism and developing novel treatment means, and is also a hotspot and a difficulty in the current global pulmonary hypertension research field.

Example 2 rat phenotyping
1. Experimental method and procedure
1. Ultrasound evaluation of degree of cardiac remodeling in rats
1) Rats were induced with 3% -4% isoflurane concentration and the isoflurane concentration was converted to 1% -2% to maintain the rat anesthetized state. The hair from the rat collarbone to the xiphoid process was removed using depilatory cream and placed on a small animal ultrasonic testing instrument platform (visualsonic, canada model Vevo 770).
2) Long axis section beside sternum: the probe is vertically arranged above the sternum, is inclined at an angle of about 30-45 degrees to the right side of the rat, and the image shows the long axis of the heart, and if the apex and the outflow tract are both clearly positioned on the same horizontal plane, the long axis section of the left room of the sternum is a qualified long axis section. A map is kept at this section BMode.
3) Pulmonary artery long axis section: on the basis of the short axis of the left ventricle beside the sternum, the Y axis is adjusted to enable the probe to move towards the head of the rat, and the middle annular aorta, the pulmonary artery wrapping the outer side of the aorta and the branches of the left and right pulmonary arteries form a Y-shaped fork, and the Y-shaped fork is a long axis section of the pulmonary artery at the moment. A map of the long axis of the pulmonary artery remains at B Mode. The doppler mode is turned on.
4) Parasternal right ventricle short axis section: on the basis of the short axis section of the left chamber beside the sternum, the probe is shifted from the right sternum to the left, the Y axis is moved to find the maximum section of the heart chamber of the right ventricle, and the free wall and the chamber diameter of the right ventricle are measured by using M Mode.
5) Measurement and analysis: after obtaining images of each section, ultrasonic measurement is carried out according to the standard established by the American echocardiography society, and the pulmonary artery diastole is searched in a pulmonary artery long axis section B Mode diagram and the right ventricular outflow tract width (RVOT) of the diastole is measured; the diastolic right ventricular free wall thickness (RVAW; d) and the cavity diameter size (RVID; d) were measured on the parasternal right-heart short axis section. All ultrasonic measurements were averaged over 3 measurements.
2. Pressure measurement of right heart catheter
The detection of pulmonary artery hemodynamics and right ventricular cardiac output by right heart catheters is a gold standard for assessing pulmonary artery high pressure models, and is also a key technology for determining BMPR2 mutation effect at in vivo levels in this project.
1) Isoflurane at a concentration of 3% -4% induces rats and maintains the anesthetized state of the rats at a concentration of 1% -2%.
2) A multi-guide physiological recorder (Powerlab 8/30) and its associated pressure transducer were connected, the pressure transducer and catheter were filled with heparinized saline (125U/ml), and no bubbles were determined therein (bubbles could lead to deviations in the pressure measurements).
3) The rat was supinated with his limbs and his head fixed to the operating table. The neck skin of the rat was exposed and the skin of the target site was sterilized with 75% alcohol. The left hand is provided with tooth bending forceps, the right hand is used for cutting the skin from the position above the sternum handle and about 1cm far to the right in the middle, and a gland is arranged near the throat of the rat. Avoiding glands, passively separating subcutaneous muscle and connective tissue, exposing right jugular vein, and cleaning connective tissue around jugular vein. The jugular vein is ligated distally, a loose knot is made proximally, and the knot is lifted with a hemostat to stop blood flow.
4) The catheter port and the transducer are flush with the heart, and the three-way pipe is opened to circulate the whole device. Clicking the 'start' to detect the blood pressure, if the blood pressure is not 0, zeroing the bridge amplifier, and stopping recording the blood pressure and closing the three-way pipe after the blood pressure detection value is continuously stabilized at the '0'.
5) A V-shaped small opening is cut on the external jugular vein by using Venus scissors, a proximal ligature is loosened, a section of bent PE-50 catheter with the front end is sent in, and the ligature is fast fastened after the catheter is sent in, so that blood can be prevented from exuding from the opening to disturb vision. If the jugular vein waveform is observed, if the waveform is not present or the waveform is not in the right shape, the opening of the catheter is possibly blocked, and the catheter is flushed with a small amount of heparinized physiological saline.
6) The catheter was gently fed into the heart chamber, the rat right heart waveform was observed, and after stabilizing for 2min, the right heart pressure waveform was recorded for 1-2min.
7) Continuing to forward the catheter and rotating the front end to search for the pulmonary artery, if a rise in diastolic pressure is observed and systolic pressure is similar to that of the right heart, the catheter has entered the pulmonary artery. The catheter was kept stationary and the pressure was allowed to stabilize for 1min and waveforms were recorded for 1-2min. After the pulmonary artery pressure is measured, the catheter is withdrawn from the blood vessel, and the proximal end of the jugular vein incision is ligated.

2. Experimental results
1、Bmpr2 +/R491W Mutant rat spontaneous pulmonary artery high pressure phenotype
The first mutant rat was designated as F0, and the progeny of its pair with the wild type rat was designated as F1, and then passaged down in sequence. We performed echocardiographic measurements at 2, 3, 6 months of age for each generation of mutant rats, with continuous observations of the cardiopulmonary phenotype of the rats. At the F3 generation, we found 30 Bmpr2 +/R491W One rat was found to have spontaneous PAH at 3 months of age at a ratio of 3% (1/30). The rats were not bred on a large scale for the F4-F9 generation, and only maintained population.
From the F10 generation we re-useExpansion of the breeding scale, the mutant rats were found to be Bmpr2 when passaged to F11-F12 generation, three independent batches of breeding +/R491W One rat showed spontaneous PAH phenotype at 3 months of age, 3 out of 20 mutant rats showed spontaneous pulmonary hypertension with an overall incidence of 15% (3/20), and the remaining mutant rats were observed to have no spontaneous PAH phenotype at 4 months of age for a long period of time (fig. 2), where B096 was the F9 mutant rat and two F10 mutant rats (B106, B107) were bred after mating with wild type rat (WT). B106 and B107 were mated with Wild Type (WT) rats, respectively, to obtain F11-generation rats. One of six F11 rats bred in B106 (B113, red highlighting) spontaneously developed pulmonary hypertension at 3 months of age, two offspring rats B117, B118 of B107, which had not spontaneously developed PAH, were mated with wild type rats to obtain F12 rats, one each (B123 and B128) spontaneously developed pulmonary hypertension at 3 months of age, respectively. In the real world, the lifetime incidence of BMPR2 mutation carriers is 14-42%, and the extinguishment rate of a rat model is consistent with the genetic characteristics of the disease.
2. Pulmonary artery bulge and right heart hypertrophy
The echocardiography test shows that three spontaneous PAH mutant rats have obvious pulmonary artery bulge. Bmpr2 compared to non-littermates mutant rats +/R491W Spontaneous PAH rats increased in right precordial anterior wall thickness (RVAW; d) by 50% (1.6.+ -. 0.3mm vs. 0.8.+ -. 0.1mm, P)<0.001 (as in fig. 3A-C); right Ventricular Outflow Tract (RVOT) of three spontaneous PAH mutant rats was widened 55% (6.8.+ -. 0.01mm vs 3.0.+ -. 0.4mm, P)<0.001 (as in fig. 3D-F), where the right cardiac hypertrophy phenotype of B128 was particularly pronounced, the right cardiac chamber diameter increased by 57% (7.1 mm vs 3.0 mm), and the right heart remodeling was severe, suggesting that rat B388 has progressed to the end of PAH disease.
3. Pulmonary artery pressure elevation in BMPR2 mutant rats
Echocardiography clearly suggests that three mutant rats undergo right ventricular remodeling, and to further clarify whether these rats develop pulmonary hypertension, we performed right heart catheter detection. Compared with mutant rats with normal littermate phenotype, the average pulmonary arterial hypertension (mean pulmonary arterial hypertension, mPAP) of the three diseased rats is significantly increased (37.7+ -8.5 mmHg vs 17.8+ -1.2 mmHg, p < 0.001) (fig. 4A-C), and the mPAP of the three rats exceeds 25mmHg, thereby reaching the pulmonary arterial hypertension diagnosis standard.
4、Bmpr2 +/R491W Mutant rats produced severe pulmonary vascular remodeling
In the definition of three Bmpr2 +/R491W After spontaneous pulmonary hypertension in mutant rats, we further assessed the extent of pulmonary vascular remodeling in rats by pathology staining. The pulmonary blood vessel is divided into small pulmonary arteries with diameters of 50-100um and small pulmonary arteries with diameters of less than 50um for statistical analysis, and the results show that compared with non-diseased rats, three Bmpr2 disease is generated +/R491W Rats were either pulmonary arterioles (14.77.+ -. 3.2% vs. 12.+ -. 0.56%, p<0.05 Also the micro-arteries (18.3.+ -. 2.0% vs 14.09.+ -. 0.3%, p)<0.01 The intima thickness was significantly elevated, suggesting that the primary pathological mechanism of BMPR2 mutation pathogenesis was closely related to intima remodeling (fig. 5A-5D).
