Single-nuclei sequencing of mouse brain tissue and single-cell sequencing of FACS-sorted mouse astrocytes, investigating the effect of absence of microglia in the developing brain

ABSTRACT: Microglia, brain-resident macrophages, have been proposed to play an active role in synaptic refinement and maturation, influencing plasticity and circuit-level connectivity. Using a genetically modified mouse which lacks microglia (Csf1r ∆FIRE/∆FIRE), we investigate the effect on gene expression in particular cell types of the presence or absence of microglia in the developing mouse brain.

Single-cell sequencing of FACS-sorted mouse astrocytes, investigating the effect of absence of microglia in a mouse model of ß-amyloidopathy

Project description:The APPSwe/PS1dE9 (APP/PS1) mouse ß-amyloidopathy mouse model exhibits extracellular Aß deposition, particularly in the neocortex and hippocampus, increasing steadily from about 6 months, with reactive astrogliosis and synapse loss occurring proximal to plaques. We crossed APP/PS1 mice onto genetically modified mice which lack microglia (Csf1r ∆FIRE/∆FIRE) to assess whether Aß plaque deposition and downstream events are altered in brains lacking microglia.

On the discovery of population-specific state transitions from single-cell RNA sequencing data

Project description:Single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) has quickly become an empowering technology to profile the transcriptomes of individual cells on a large scale. Many early analyses of differential expression have aimed at identifying differences between cell types (or clusters), and thus are focused on finding markers for cell populations either in a single sample or across multiple samples. More generally, such methods can compare expression levels in multiple sets of cells, thus leading to cross-condition analyses. However, given the emergence of replicated multi-condition scRNA-seq datasets, an area of increasing focus is making sample-level inferences, termed here as differential state analysis. For example, one could investigate the condition-specific responses of specific immune cell subsets across cells measured from patients within each condition, however, it is not clear which statistical framework best handles this situation. In this work, we surveyed the methods available to perform cross-condition differential state analyses, including cell-level mixed models and methods based on aggregated ``pseudobulk'' data. We developed a flexible simulation platform that mimics both single and multi-sample scRNA-seq data and provide robust tools for multi-condition analysis within the R package.

Acutely isolated murine cortical astrocytes and microglia: Alzheimer's disease vs wildtype

Project description:Isolation of glia from Alzheimer's mice reveals inflammation andÂ dysfunction. Reactive astrocytes and microglia are associated with amyloid plaques in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Yet, not much is known about the molecular alterations underlying this reactive phenotype. To get an insight into the molecular changes underlying AD induced astrocyte and microglia reactivity, we performed a transcriptional analysis on acutely isolated astrocytes and microglia from the cortex of aged controls and APPswe/PS1dE9 AD mice. As expected, both cell types acquired a proinflammatory phenotype, which confirms the validity of our approach. Interestingly, we observed that the immune alteration in astrocytes was relatively more pronounced than in microglia. Concurrently, our data reveal that astrocytes display a reduced expression of neuronal support genes and genes involved in neuronal communication. The microglia showed a reduced expression of phagocytosis and/or endocytosis genes. Co-expression analysis of a human AD expression data set and the astrocyte and microglia data sets revealed that the inflammatory changes in astrocytes were remarkably comparable in mouse and human AD, whereas the microglia changes showed less similarity. Based on these findings we argue that chronically proinflammatory astrocyte and microglia phenotypes, showing a reduction of genes involved in neuronal support and neuronal signaling, are likely to contribute to the neuronal dysfunction and cognitive decline in AD. 2 cell types from 2 conditions: cortical microglia and cortical astrocytes from 15-18 month old APPswe/PS1dE9 mice compared to wildtype littermates. Biological replicates: microglia from APPswe/PS1dE9, N=7, microglia from WT, N=7, astrocytes from APPswe/PS1dE9, N=4, microglia from WT, N=4

A Novel Role of Wnt/β Catenin Signaling in Regulating the Nucleolus in Triple Negative Breast CancerA Novel Role of Wnt/β Catenin Signaling in Regulating the Nucleolus in Triple Negative Breast Cancer

Project description:Breast cancer is one of the most common types of cancer in women. One key signaling pathway known to regulate tumor growth, metabolic adaptation, and cellular stress response in breast cancer is Wnt signaling. Breast cancer patients, specifically triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), with upregulated Wnt signaling often have a poor clinical prognosis. However, the effects of Wnt/β-catenin signaling on the nucleolus and the resultant impact on cancer development and progression remain unclear. A notable reduction was observed in the number of nucleoli per nucleus in response to Wnt/β-catenin signaling inhibition in multiple TNBC cell lines. Our comparative proteomic analysis revealed several changes in the composition of the nucleolar proteome of TNBC cells upon inhibition of Wnt signaling. Overall, we demonstrate that Wnt/β-catenin signaling will affects nucleolar functionality and thus influences breast cancer progression. Understanding the role of Wnt signaling in the nucleolus and breast cancer is a critical step towards developing novel therapeutic options for the treatment of breast cancer.

Differential analysis of nucleolar proteomics in triple negative breast cancer

Project description:Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers in women. Of the different subtypes of breast cancer, the triple negative breast cancer subtype of breast cancer is the most aggressive. A proteomic screen of nucleolar content across breast cancer subtypes found that triple negative breast cancer cell lines have a distinct nucleolar proteome signature in comparison to non-TNBC breast cancer cell lines.

Single-cell RNA-seq of rat microglia in monoculture and in coculture with neurons and astrocytes

Project description:Microglia, brain resident macrophages, require instruction from the central nervous system microenvironment to maintain their identity, morphology, and to regulate inflammatory responses. We investigated the heterogeneity of response of microglia to the presence of neurons and astrocytes by performing single-cell sequencing of microglia in both monoculture, and in coculture with neurons and astrocytes.

Protein synthesis in the developing neocortex at near-atomic resolution reveals Ebp1-mediated neuronal proteostasis at the 60S tunnel exit

Project description:Proteostasis must be finely tuned in the nervous system, as it represents an essential feature of neurodevelopment, and dominant pathology in neurodegenerative disease. At the gateway of proteostasis is the ribosome; however, the architecture of ribosomal complexes in the developing mammalian brain has not been visualized. In this study, we analyze the molecular architecture of ex vivo embryonic and perinatal mouse neocortical ribosomes, revealing Ebp1 as a 60S peptide tunnel exit binding factor at near-atomic resolution by multiparticle cryo-electron microscopy. The impact of Ebp1 on the neuronal proteome was analyzed by pSILAC and BONCAT coupled mass spectrometry, implicating Ebp1 in neurite outgrowth proteostasis, with in vivo embryonic Ebp1 knockdown resulting in neurite outgrowth dysregulation. This study constitutes the first near-atomic resolution structure of actively translating ribosomes ex vivo from the nervous system, and visualizes Ebp1 as a chaperone of protein synthesis at the 60S peptide tunnel exit in neocortical neurogenesis.
