Downregulation of Tumor Suppressor Gene LKB1 During Severe Primary Graft Dysfunction After Human Lung Transplantation: Implication for the Development of Chronic Lung Allograft Dysfunction.
Background: Severe primary graft dysfunction (PGD) after lung transplantation (LTx) is a significant risk factor for the development of bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS). Recent data from our group demonstrated that small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) isolated from the plasma of LTx recipients with BOS have reduced levels of tumor suppressor gene liver kinase B1 (LKB1) and promote epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and fibrosis. Here, we hypothesized that early inflammatory responses associated with severe PGD (PGD2/3) can downregulate LKB1 levels in sEVs, predisposing to the development of chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD).
Methods: sEVs were isolated from the plasma of human participants by Exosome Isolation Kit followed by 0.20-µm filtration and characterized by NanoSight and immunoblotting analysis. Lung self-antigens (K alpha 1 tubulin, Collagen V), LKB1, nuclear factor kappa B, and EMT markers in sEVs were compared by densitometry analysis between PGD2/3 and no-PGD participants. Neutrophil-derived factors and hypoxia/reperfusion effects on LKB1 levels and EMT were analyzed in vitro using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and Western blotting.
Results: LKB1 was significantly downregulated in PGD2/3 sEVs compared with no-PGD sEVs. Within PGD2/3 participants, lower post-LTx LKB1 was associated with CLAD development. Hypoxia/reperfusion downregulates LKB1 and is associated with markers of EMT in vitro. Finally, lower LKB1 levels in PGD2/3 are associated with increased markers of EMT.
Conclusions: Our results suggest that in post-LTx recipients with PGD2/3, downregulation of LKB1 protein levels in sEVs is associated with increased EMT markers and may result in the development of CLAD. Our results also suggest that ischemia/reperfusion injury during LTx may promote CLAD through the early downregulation of LKB1.
