Oxidative damage and respiratory burst in Multiple Sclerosis

ABSTRACT: In this project we focused on white matter injury in relapsing remitting MS. We concentrated on material obtained from patients who suffered from fulminant active MS to identify possible sources for ROS production in relation to demyelination and neurodegeneration. To identify possible sources for ROS production in relation to demyelination and neurodegeneration in MS, we used genome wide microarray analysis of gene expression in carefully dissected lesion areas of patients with fulminant acute MS. Preceding the gene expression profiling all cases were characterized histologically and areas of interest were identified. We included 4 control cases, 2 active MS cases were we separated 3 distinct lesions areas (NAWM, initial lesion and early demyelinated lesion) and 1 active MS case were we separated 2 distinct lesion areas (NAWM and early demyelinated lesion). The RNA was isolated from those areas, amplified and hybridized to Agilent G4112A whole genome microarrays.

The unique molecular signature of cortical tissue injury in Multiple Sclerosis

Project description:In the present study we addressed several questions related to the mechanisms of cortical injury. We analyzed genome wide gene expression by microarrays, comparing active multiple sclerosis lesions with highly inflammatory lesions of chronic tuberculous meningitis, with neurodegenerative lesions of Alzheimer’s disease and with normal cortex of age matched controls. To clarify which inflammatory mediators drive demyelination in the human cortex, we characterized and compared the gene expression profile of cortices derived from patients with progressive Multiple Sclerosis (pMS), Meningitis tuberculosis (MT), Alzheimers disease (AD) as well as of normal cortex from age matched controls. 3 cases of each disease were included into the study. Preceding the gene expression profiling all cases were characterized histologically and areas of interest were identified. RNA was isolated from those areas, amplified and hybridized to Agilent G4112F whole genome microarrays.

Gene expression of white and grey matter demyelinated areas and normal appearing matter from Multiple Sclerosis leukocortial lesions of human post-mortem tissue

Project description:Using laser capture microscopy, white (WM) and grey matter (GM) demyelinated areas and normal appearing matter was collected from histologically verified leukocortical lesions from snap-frozen human post mortem tissuederived from Multiple Sclerosis patients. Our data shows large differences in gene expression in WM and GM demyelinated areas (compared to their respective normal appearing matter) even when the demyelinated areas are spatially connected such as in leukocortical lesions. Thus, we show that WM demyelinated areas and GM demyelinated areas are distinct entities with distinct pathology. Therefore findings observed in WM demyelinated areas cannot be generalized to GM demyelinated areas.

Transcription profiling by array of adult zebrafish control and post-lesion retina to investigate the molecular determinants of retinal regeneration in adult vertebrate

Project description:Purpose: Investigate the molecular determinants of retinal regeneration in adult vertebrates by analyzing the gene expression profiles of control and post-lesion retina of adult zebrafish, a system that regenerates following injury. Methods: Gene expression profiles of zebrafish retina and brain were determined with DNA microarray, RT-PCR, and real-time quantitative PCR analyses. Damaged retinas and their corresponding controls were analyzed 2-5 days post-lesion (acute injury condition) or 14 d post-lesion (cell regeneration condition). Results: Expected similarities and differences in the gene expression profile of zebrafish retina and brain were observed, confirming the applicability of the gene expression techniques. Mechanical lesion of retina triggered significant, time-dependent changes in retinal gene expression. The induced transcriptional changes were consistent with cellular phenomena known to occur, in a time-dependent manner, subsequent to retinal lesion, including cell cycle progression, axonal regeneration, and regenerative cytogenesis. Conclusions: The results indicate that retinal regeneration in adult zebrafish involves a complex set of induced, targeted changes in gene transcription, and suggest that these molecular changes underlie the ability of the adult vertebrate retina to regenerate. Keywords: time course; injury response; cellular correlation Control brain and retina (unlesioned); Control and lesioned retina (matched animals, at least n = 8 for each condition).

Expression data from periplaque regions in multiple sclerosis spinal cord

Project description:There have been few studies that have focused on the periplaque regions surrounding demyelinated plaques, especially in spinal cords. Areas of incomplete demyelination have been demonstrated but poorly studied. The present study aimed to analyze the molecular immunopathology of periplaque demyelinated lesions (PDLs) in the spinal cord of patients with secondary progressive multiple sclerosis (MS). To achieve this goal, the transcriptomic profiles of PDLs were analyzed in post-mortem tissues derived from the cervical spinal cord of 8 patients with primary or secondary progressive MS.

Profiling of microglia nodules in multiple sclerosis reveals propensity for lesion formation

Project description:Microglia nodules (HLA-DR+ cell clusters) are associated with brain pathology. In this post-mortem study, we investigated whether they represent the first stage of multiple sclerosis (MS) lesion formation. We show that microglia nodules are associated with more severe MS pathology. Compared to microglia nodules in stroke, those in MS show enhanced expression of genes previously found upregulated in MS lesions. Furthermore, genes associated with lipid metabolism, presence of T and B cells, production of immunoglobulins and cytokines, activation of the complement cascade, and metabolic stress are upregulated in microglia nodules in MS. Compared to stroke, they more frequently phagocytose oxidized phospholipids and possess a more tubular mitochondrial network. Strikingly, in MS, some microglia nodules encapsulate partially demyelinated axons. Taken together, we propose that activation of microglia nodules in MS by cytokines and immunoglobulins, together with phagocytosis of oxidized phospholipids, may lead to a microglia-phenotype prone to MS lesion formation.

Three types of Leishmania mexicana amastigotes: proteome comparison by quantitative proteomic analysis

Project description:Leishmania is the unicellular parasite transmitted by phlebotomine sand fly bite. It exists in two different forms; extracellular promastigotes, occurring in the gut of sand flies, and intracellular, round-shaped amastigotes residing mainly in vertebrate macrophages. As amastigotes originating from infected animals are often present in insufficient quality and quantity, two alternative types of amastigotes were introduced for laboratory experiments: axenic amastigotes and amastigotes from macrophages infected in vitro. Nevertheless, there is very little information about the degree of similarity/difference among these three types of amastigotes on proteomic level, whose comparison is crucial for assessing the suitability of using alternative types of amastigotes in experiments. In this study, L. mexicana amastigotes obtained from lesion of infected BALB/c mice were proteomically compared with alternatively cultivated amastigotes (axenic and macrophage-derived ones). Amastigotes of all three types were isolated, individually treated and analysed by LC-MS/MS proteomic analysis with quantification using TMT10-plex isobaric labeling. Significant differences were observed in the abundance of metabolic enzymes, virulence factors and proteins involved in translation and condensation of DNA. The most pronounced differences were observed between axenic amastigotes and lesion-derived amastigotes, macrophage-derived amastigotes were mostly intermediate between axenic and lesion-derived ones.

Array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) study of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) small gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) less than 1 cm in greatest diameter (microGISTs)

Project description:To investigate the cytogenetic and large-scale chromosomal changes in involuted or non-involuted microGISTs using post-whole genome amplification (WGA) FFPE DNA materials Sixteen patients, total 19 FFPE tumor samples (block storage time 4 months to 9 years), including 16 microGISTs and 3 GISTs larger than 1 cm from the same patients harboring microGISTs. All FFPE tumor samples underwent DNA extraction and WGA (modified degenerate oligonucleotide PCR (DOP) method, provided by Sigma). For each tumor sample, a post-WGA DNA extract from the normal tissue in the same block (or block from the same patient with a block storage time differences less than 2 years) was obtained for tumor sample DNA co-hybridization. Tumor and normal areas of interest were marked and collected from 5- to 10-micron unstained or hematoxylin-stained sections by manual or laser (PixCell IITM, Arcturus Bioscience, CA, USA) microdissection. DNAs were then extracted. WGA was performed using GenomePlex® Tissue Whole Genome Amplification WGA5 kit (Sigma, Saint Louis, MO, USA; http://www.sigmaaldrich.com/) in parallel in accordance with the manufacturer's protocols. At least four independent experiments were concurrently performed per template amplification. Four separate WGA reaction products were pooled for each sample.

Vagus Nerve Stimulation enhances remyelination and decreases innate neuroinflammation in a Multiple Sclerosis rodent model.

Project description:This study investigated the effect of Vagus Nerve Stimulation (VNS) on innate neuroinflammation and remyelination in lysolecithin (LPC) induced demyelination, a preclinical model for Multiple Sclerosis (MS). In a first experiment (demyelination experiment), LPC was injected in the corpus callosum of 33 Lewis rats, inducing a demyelinated lesion, and rats were treated with either continuously-cycled VNS (cVNS) or one-minute per day VNS (1minVNS) or sham VNS, from two days before the injection until three days post-injection (dpi), when they were killed for immunohistochemistry and proteomics analysis. This timepoint corresponded with a demyelinated lesion and peak inflammation. In a second experiment (remyelination experiment), 13 rats were analogously treated with either cVNS or sham from two days before LPC injection until 11 dpi, when they were killed for tissue prelevation for immunohistochemistry and proteomics. This timepoints corresponded with partial remyelination of the lesion. For proteomics analysis, 20 rats were randomly selected, namely five cVNS and five sham rats of the demyelination experiment, and five cVNS and five sham rats of the remyelination experiment.
