RNA-seq analysis of POLDIP2 mutant in Drosophila melanogaster

ABSTRACT: Maternal inheritance of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is highly conserved in metazoans. While many species eliminate paternal mtDNA during late sperm development to foster maternal inheritance, the regulatory mechanisms governing this process remain elusive. Through a large-scale genetic screen in Drosophila, we identified 47 mutant lines exhibiting substantial retention of mtDNA in mature sperm. We mapped one line to Poldip2, a gene predominantly expressed in the testis. Disruption of Poldip2 led to pronounced mtDNA retention in mature sperm and subsequent paternal transmission to progeny. Further investigation via imaging, biochemical analyses and ChIP assays revealed that POLDIP2 is a mitochondrial matrix protein capable of binding to mtDNA. Moreover, we uncovered that CLPX, a key component of the major mitochondrial protease, binds to POLDIP2 to co-regulate mtDNA elimination in Drosophila spermatids. This study shed light on the mechanisms underlying mtDNA removal during spermatogenesis, underscoring the pivotal role of this process in safeguarding maternal inheritance.

POLDIP2 is required for mtDNA elimination during spermatogenesis to ensure maternal inheritance in Drosophila melanogaster

Characterization of primary models of human trophoblast

Project description:To understand the human placenta development, we investigated the features of two trophoblast models, trophoblast organoids and trophoblast stem cells, with the aim of identifying which type of trophoblast in vivo they most closely resemble. To this end, we profiled the transcriptomes from the two models by using the Truseq stranded mRNA library kit (Illumina).

Intermittent childhood hyperlipidaemia alters resident arterial macrophages and accelerates atherosclerosis

Project description:Peritoneal macrophages were obtained by intraperitoneal injection of cold PBS from Ldlr−/− mice reconstituted with Lyz2Cre+/− Nrp1flox/flox or Lyz2Cre+/− Nrp1+/+ bone marrow.

Intermittent childhood hyperlipidaemia alters resident arterial macrophages and accelerates atherosclerosis

Project description:Mice deficient in the LDL receptor (LDLR KO mice) fed with high fat diet (HFD) feeding have been widely used as a model to mimic human atherosclerosis. RNA-seq using aortic macrophages to investigate the effects of aortic macrophages on the plaque size progression. LDLR KO mice, 6-8 weeks old, were used, and fed with either an alternative HFD or a regular HFD. After aorta macrophages were isolated, RNeasy Mini Kit (Qiagen) was used to isolate mRNA. Single end (50bp), unstranded, SMART-Seq v4 plus nextera (SMART-Seq v4 Ultra Low Input RNA Kit (Takara) ). The RNA-seq libraries were prepared with SMART-Seq v4 Ultra Low Input RNA Kit (Takara).

GDF15 antagonism limits severe heart failure and prevents cardiac cachexia in mice

Project description:Heart failure and associated cachexia is an unresolved and important problem. We report a new model of severe heart failure that consistently results in cachexia. Mice lacking the integrated stress response (ISR) induced eIF2α phosphatase, PPP1R15A, exhibit a dilated cardiomyopathy and severe weight loss following irradiation, whilst wildtype mice are unaffected. This is associated with increased expression of Gdf15 in the heart and increased levels of GDF15 in the circulation. We provide evidence that blockade of GDF15 activity prevents cachexia and slows the progression of heart failure. Our data suggests that cardiac stress mediates a GDF15 dependent pathway that drives weight loss and worsens cardiac function. We show relevance of GDF15 to lean mass and protein intake with patients with heart failure. Blockade of GDF15 could constitute a novel therapeutic option to limit cardiac cachexia and improve clinical outcomes in patients with severe systolic heart failure.

Mechanical regulation of the electric maturation of hippocampal neurons

Project description:In this project, we cultured rat hippocampal neurons in mechanically different environments and studied electrical maturation. We compared WT neurons with two different Piezo1 knockdown conditions. These two knockdown conditions were generated in two independent CRISPR-Cas9 KD assays. Each assay is based on four different CRISPR-Cas9 guides targeting the Piezo1 gene. RNA sequencing was used to analyse the pathway leading to the stiffness dependent maturation behaviour.

Mitochondrial DNA sequences of familial (maternal vs. non-maternal) ALS cases in whole blood, platelets and white blood cells

Project description:To address the question of whether mtDNA mutations might play a role in familiar ALS (fALS), mtDNA was isolated from whole blood (WB), white blood cells (WBC) and platelets (PLT) from fALS patients and the mitochondrial genome was analyzed using a mtDNA resequencing array (Affymetrix MitoChip v2.0) that allows detection of low-level heteroplasmy in addition to the conventional homoplasmic or heteroplasmic mutations. We distinguished between fALS cases with a prominent maternal (mat) inheritance pattern and fALS cases that do not point to a maternal inheritance pattern (non-mat). As additional controls we compared our results to healthy age and sex matched individuals without any known neurodegenerative background. With this we are aiming to get a deeper insight into a possible role of mtDNA alterations acting as a disease modifier in a subgroup of ALS patients presenting with a maternal transmission of the disease.

A shared gene expression signature in human blastocyst embryos affected by a mitochondrial defect.

Project description:Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) quantitative and qualitative defects have been associated with impaired human embryonic development, but the underlying mechanisms remain unknown. By using human embryos affected by mitochondrial disorders as models of mitochondrial dysfunction, we compared gene expression between 9 mitochondrial embryos (carriers of a pathogenic variant in a mtDNA or a nuclear gene coding for a mitochondrial protein) to 33 controls. Transcriptomic analyses performed by RNA-Sequencing revealed a similar global transcriptional repression in mitochondrial embryos affecting a significant proportion of differentiation factors and nuclear genes encoding mitochondrial proteins. If oxidative phosphorylation was at the top of the most significant deregulated pathways, cell survival and autophagy were found to be significantly decreased in these embryos, questioning their viability. Differentially expressed genes identified in this study represent good predictive biomarkers of mitochondrial dysfunction and should be tested as markers of preimplantation development.
