Хроническая обструктивная болезнь легких (ХОБЛ) - это многофакторное хроническое воспалительное заболевание респираторной системы. Одной из причин трудностей в идентификации маркеров ХОБЛ является фенотипическая гетерогенность. Цель - идентификация новых молекулярных маркеров патогенетических изменений, связанных с фенотипической гетерогеностью ХОБЛ на основе анализа профиля экспрессии генов вовлеченных в развитие иммунного ответа в мононуклеарных клетках периферической крови и анализа ассоциации полиморфных вариантов новых кандидатных генов с развитием ХОБЛ. Проведен сравнительный анализ профиля экспрессии панели 84 генов, кодирующих цитокины, хемокины в PBMC пациентов с различными фенотипами ХОБЛ: с частыми обострениями N=10 и редкими обострениями N=10 и контрольной группе N=10. Для анализа ассоциации использовали образцы ДНК больных ХОБЛ (N=601) и контроля (N=617), методом ПЦР в реальном времени проведен анализ 56 полиморфных локусов генов JAK/STAT-, NFKB1-сигнального путей, кодирующих белки, вовлеченные в реализацию реакций иммунного ответа и воспаления. Выявлены значимые изменения профиля экспрессии ряда генов в группе больных ХОБЛ с частыми обострениями. Впервые получены данные по вкладу полиморфных локусов генов JAK1, JAK3, STAT3, ICAM1, PECAM1, SAA1, NFKB1, IL17A, CCR2, CCR6, CCL8, CRP, CX3CL1, CXCR2, CXCR1, TNFRSF1A, IL20, IL19, в развитие данного заболевания. Выявлены специфические генетические маркеры развития фенотипа с частыми обострениями: CXCR2, TNFRSF1B, CCR6, TNF, IL1B, IL10, JAK3, PECAM1. Установлена ассоциация полиморфных вариантов генов TNFRSF1B, TNFRSF1A, CCL23, CXCR2, JAK1, NFKB1, PECAM1, ICAM1, STAT1, LTA, CD14, CXCL12, CCL20, ADIPOR1 и CX3CR1 с показателями функции внешнего дыхания. Определена взаимосвязь аллельных вариантов генов: IL17A, JAK1, JAK3, NFKB1, CCL5, CCL11, CCL17, CXCL8, TNFRSF1A, CX3CL1, CCL8, CCR6, CXCR2, IL19, IL20 с индексом курения. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a multifactorial heterogeneous chronic inflammatory disease of the respiratory system predominantly affecting the lower respiratory pathways and the lung parenchyma. One of the reason for difficulties in identifying of COPD markers is phenotypic heterogeneity. The goal of the study is the identification of new molecular markers of pathogenetic changes associated with phenotypic heterogeneity of COPD based on the analysis of the expression profile of genes involved in the development of the immune response in peripheral blood mononuclear cells and analysis of the association of polymorphic variants of new candidate genes with COPD. Methods: to identify differential gene expression in COPD we performed expression profiling of 84 cytokines and chemokines genes in peripheral blood samples from COPD (N=10 with frequent exacerbation phenotype, N=10 rare exacerbation phenotype) and N=10 smoking controls. RNA was isolated from PBMCs, and gene expression was assessed using RT2 Profiler PCR Arrays «Human Cytokines & Chemokines PCR Array»» (Qiagen, Valencia, CA, USA). 56 SNPs of JAK / STAT-, NFKB1-signaling pathway and inflammatory response molecules genes were genotyped by the real-time polymerase chain reaction (TaqMan assays) in a case-control study (601 COPD patients and 617 controls). Results. Significant changes were revealed in the expression profile of several genes in “frequent exacerbator» COPD phenotype. The results indicate a down-regulation of inflammatory molecules in “frequent exacerbator» COPD phenotype. For the first time, we indicated the contribution of JAK1, JAK3, STAT3, ICAM1, PECAM1, SAA1, NFKB1, IL17A, CCR2, CCR6, CCL8, CRP, CX3CL1, CXCR2, CXCR1, TNFRSF1A, IL20, IL19 genes polymorphisms to COPD. Specific genetic markers of “frequent exacerbator” COPD phenotype have been identified, which are modifiers of COPD progression, including polymorphic loci of the CXCR2, TNFRSF1B, CCR6, TNF, IL1B, IL10, JAK3, PECAM1 genes. A significant genotype-dependent variation of lung function parameters was observed for CXCR2, JAK1, NFKB1, PECAM1, ICAM1, STAT1, LTA, CD14, CXCL12, CCL20, ADIPOR1 and CX3CR1 genes. The relationship of IL17A, JAK1, JAK3, NFKB1, CCL5, CCL11, CCL17, CXCL8, TNFRSF1A, CX3CL1, CCL8, CCR6, CXCR2, IL19, IL20 genes with smoking pack-years was found.

Smoking is a key modifiable risk factor for developing the chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). When smoking, many processes, including the reverse transport of cholesterol mediated by the ATP binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) protein are disrupted in the lungs. Changes in the cholesterol content in the lipid rafts of plasma membranes can modulate the function of transmembrane proteins localized in them. It is believed that this mechanism participates in increasing the inflammation in COPD. Methods: Bioinformatic analysis of datasets from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) was carried out. Gene expression data from datasets of alveolar macrophages and the epithelium of the respiratory tract in smokers and COPD patients compared with non-smokers were used for the analysis. To evaluate differentially expressed genes, bioinformatic analysis was performed in comparison groups using the limma package in R (v. 4.0.2), and the GEO2R and Phantasus tools (v. 1.11.0). Results: The conducted bioinformatic analysis showed changes in the expression of the ABCA1 gene associated with smoking. In the alveolar macrophages of smokers, the expression levels of ABCA1 were lower than in non-smokers. At the same time, in most of the airway epithelial datasets, gene expression did not show any difference between the groups of smokers and non-smokers. In addition, it was shown that the expression of ABCA1 in the epithelial cells of the trachea and large bronchi is higher than in small bronchi. Conclusions: The conducted bioinformatic analysis showed that smoking can influence the expression of the ABCA1 gene, thereby modulating lipid transport processes in macrophages, which are part of the mechanisms of inflammation development.
