Transcription profiling of mouse brain tissue from HtrA2 knockouts

ABSTRACT: Cellular stress responses can be activated following functional defects in organelles such as mitochondria and the endoplasmic reticulum. Mitochondrial dysfunction caused by loss of the serine protease HtrA2 leads to a progressive movement disorder in mice and has been linked to parkinsonian neurodegeneration in humans. Here we demonstrate that loss of HtrA2 results in transcriptional up-regulation of nuclear genes characteristic of the integrated stress response, including the transcription factor CHOP, selectively in the brain. We also show that loss of HtrA2 results in the accumulation of unfolded proteins in the mitochondria, defective mitochondrial respiration and enhanced production of reactive oxygen species that contribute to the induction of CHOP expression and to neuronal cell death. CHOP expression is also significantly increased in Parkinsonâs disease patientsâ brain tissue. We therefore propose that this brain-specific transcriptional response to stress may be important in the advance of neurodegenerative diseases. Experiment Overall Design: This experiment was set out to identify genes that are differentially expressed in brain tissue from the cortex of HtrA2 knockout (KO) mice compared to wild type (WT) littermates. We chose a cortical region since there is no evidence of neuronal loss in this region enabling us to compare mRNA transcripts in identical cellular populations. Brains of littermate WT and HtrA2 KO mice were dissected to obtain cortex tissue at post-natal day 29 (P29). RNA was isolated and samples were processed for hybridisation (6 samples in total, 3 replicates for each genotype).

Experiment Overall Design: This experiment was set out to identify genes that are differentially regulated upon rotenone treatment in HtrA2 knockout (KO) mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) compared to wild type (WT) MEFs. Primary MEFs were isolated and at passage 4 subjected to treatment with vehicle (control) or 1 Î¼M rotenone (rot) for 4 hrs. 3 replicates were performed. RNA was isolated and samples were processed for hybridisation (12 samples in total).

Oxidative stress induces mitochondrial dysfunction and a protective unfolded protein response in RPE cells

Project description:How retinal pigmented epithelial (RPE) cells degenerate from oxidative stress in age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is incompletely understood. The study's intent was to identify key cytoprotective pathways activated by oxidative stress, and to determine the extent of their protection. Immunohistochemistry was used to identify the unfolded protein response (UPR) and mitochondria in the RPE of AMD samples. Maculas with early AMD had prominent IRE1α, but minimal mitochondrial TOM20 immunolabeling in mildly degenerated RPE. RPE cells treated with cigarette smoke extract (CSE), by microarray analysis, had over-represented genes involved in the antioxidant and unfolded protein response, and mitochondrial location. CSE induced the UPR sensors IRE1α, p-PERK, and ATP6, which activated CHOP. CHOP knockdown compromised cell viability after CSE exposure. At the same CSE doses, mitochondria generated superoxide anion and produced less ATP. In mice given intravitreal CSE, the RPE had increased IRE1α and decreased ATP, which elicited RPE epithelial-mesenchymal transition, as suggested by altered ZO1 immunolabeling of RPE flatmounts. Our experiments indicate that RPE cells exposed to oxidative stress respond with a cytoprotective antioxidant and unfolded protein response, but develop mitochondrial impairment that contributed to epithelial mesenchymal transition. With similar responses in the RPE of early AMD samples, these results suggest that mitochondria are vulnerable to oxidative stress while the ER elicits a protective response during early AMD. A total of 9 samples were analyzed: 3 control samples, 3 samples treated with 100ug/ml of Cigarette Smoke Condensate, and 3 samples treated with 250ug/ml of Cigarettes Smoke Condensate.

Transcriptional profiling of the prefontal cortex and nucleus accumbens of mice upon chronic stress

Project description:Mitochondrial dysfunction was highlighted as a crucial vulnerability factor for the development of depression. However, systemic studies assessing stress-induced changes in mitochondria-associated genes in brain regions relevant to depression symptomatology remain scarce. Here, we performed a genome-wide transcriptomic study to examine mitochondrial gene expression in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) and nucleus accumbens (NAc) of mice exposed to multimodal chronic restraint stress. We identified mitochondria-associated gene pathways as most prominently affected in the PFC and with lesser significance in the NAc. A more detailed mitochondrial gene expression analysis revealed that in particular mitochondrial DNA-encoded subunits of the oxidative phosphorylation complexes were altered in the PFC. The comparison of our data with a reanalyzed transcriptome data set of chronic variable stress mice and major depression disorder subjects showed that the changes in mitochondrial DNA-encoded genes are a feature generalizing to other chronic stress-protocols as well and might have translational relevance. Finally, we provide evidence for changes in mitochondrial outputs in the PFC following chronic stress that are indicative of mitochondrial dysfunction. Collectively, our work reinforces the idea that changes in mitochondrial gene expression are key players in the prefrontal adaptations observed in individuals with high behavioral susceptibility and resilience to chronic stress.

White Matter transcriptome in chronic alcoholism

Project description:Chronic alcohol consumption can lead to alchohol-related brain damage (ARBD). Despite the well known acute effects of alcohol the mechanism responsible for chronic brain damage is largely unknown. Pathologically the major change is the loss of white matter while neuronal loss is mild and restricted to a few areas such as the prefrontal cortex. In order to improve our understanding of ARBD pathogenesis we used microarrays to explore the white matter transcriptome of alcoholics and controls. Our results suggest that hepatic encephalopathy, along with two confounders, gray matter contamination and low RNA quality, are major drivers of gene expression in ARBD. All three exceeded the effects of alcohol itself. In particular, low quality RNA samples were characterized by an upregulation of protein translation machinery while hepatic encephalopathy was associated with a downregulation of mitochondrial energy metabolism pathways. The findings in HE alcoholics are consistent with the metabolic acidosis seen in this condition. In contrast non-HE alcoholics had widespread but only subtle changes in gene expression in their white matter. The initial cohort was compromised of four alcoholics without hepatic encephalopathy (non-HE alcoholics), three alcoholics with HE (HE alcoholics) and three neurologically normal controls. For each indvidual frozen white matter was sampled in the superior frontal gyrus (prefrontal cortex) and the precentral gyrus (motor cortex). These two cortices experience either moderate (prefrontal cortex) or no neuronal loss (motor cortex) with alcohol-related brain damage. Each white matter sample was divided in two before RNA was extracted to give two 'biological' repeats and a total of 40 samples. Subsequently eight duplicates were removed due to their gray matter contamination or low RNA quality to leave a 32-sample cohort (23 alcoholic (including eight with HE ) and nine control samples.

Transcription profiling of mouse multiple brain regions for a MPTP model of Parkinsons disease

Project description:In Parkinsonâ??s disease (PD), the progressive loss of substantia nigra dopamine cells has been associated with their vulnerability to oxidative stress, inflammation, and mitochondrial dysfunction. To identify multiple gene transcription alterations that may potentially underlie early stages of related degenerative processes in brain, we used the subcrhonic MPTP mouse model of PD and microarray analysis at 4 days post-MPTP when neurotoxic activity is maximal. Since PD results in gene changes throughout the brain, we assessed MPTP's effects in multiple regions: frontal cortex, striatum and midbrain. Experiment Overall Design: Mus musculus adults were randomly assigned to either MPTP or saline treatment groups. Brain regions of interest (frontal cortex, striatum and midbrain) were dissected from both groups for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.
