Long noncoding RNA and its contribution to autism spectrum disorders.

ABSTRACT: Recent studies have indicated that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play important roles in multiple processes, such as epigenetic regulation, gene expression regulation, development, nutrition-related and other diseases, toxic response, and response to drugs. Although the functional roles and mechanisms of several lncRNAs have been discovered, a better understanding of the vast majority of lncRNAs remains elusive. To understand the functional roles and mechanisms of lncRNAs is critical because these transcripts represent the majority of the transcriptional output of the mammalian genome. Recent studies have also suggested that lncRNAs are more abundant in the human brain and are involved in neurodevelopment and neurodevelopmental disorders, including autism spectrum disorders (ASDs). In this study, we review several known functions of lncRNAs and the potential contribution of lncRNAs to ASDs and to other genetic syndromes that have a similar clinical presentation to ASDs, such as fragile X syndrome and Rett syndrome.

Systemic effects of the long noncoding RNA COSMOC in autism spectrum disorders

Project description:Autism Spectrum Disorders are complex neurodevelopmental disorders often attributed to specific mutated genes that collectively affect less than 10% of autists. We recently identified MOCOS, a molybdenum cofactor sulfurase-coding gene that was downregulated in stem cells of most autists of a cohort, disturbing redox homeostasis and synaptogenesis. We now report that, upstream of MOCOS, a divergent transcription generates an antisense long noncoding RNA called COSMOC. Remarkably, COSMOC expression is very low in all patients of this cohort. Knockdown studies indicates that loss of COSMOC reduces MOCOS expression, destabilizes lipid metabolism and affects energy metabolism of stem cells. Moreover, COSMOC deficiency is associated with defective neuronal maturation through the splicing regulator PTBP2 and the postsynaptic scaffold protein PSD95 involved in synaptic transmission. This dysregulation of COSMOC/MOCOS bidirectional unit might explain the origin of the disease for most autists

Widespread RNA editing dysregulation in Autism Spectrum Disorders II

Project description:Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disease with complex heterogeneity and aberrations in multiple levels of neurobiology. Recently, our understanding of the molecular abnormalities in ASD has been greatly expanded through transcriptomic analyses of postmortem brains. However, a crucial molecular pathway involved in synaptic development, RNA editing, has not yet been studied on a genome-wide scale. Here we profiled the global patterns of adenosine-to-inosine (A-to-I) editing in a large cohort of ASD cortices and cerebella. Strikingly, we observed a global bias of hypoediting in ASD brains, common to different brain regions and involving many genes with critical neurological function. The large-scale RNA editing changes allowed us to reveal novel insights of RNA editing regulation. Through genome-wide protein-RNA binding analyses and detailed molecular assays, we show that the Fragile X proteins, FMRP and FXR1P, interact with ADAR protens and modulate A-to-I editing. Furthermore, we observed convergent patterns of RNA editing alterations between ASD and Fragile X syndrome, thus establishing RNA editing as a novel molecular link underlying these two highly related diseases. Our findings support a role for RNA editing dysregulation in ASD pathophysiology and highlight novel mechanisms for RNA editing regulation.

Genome-wide differential expression of synaptic long noncoding RNAs in autism spectrum disorder.

Project description:A genome-wide differential expression of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) was identified in blood specimens of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). A total of 3929 lncRNAs were found to be differentially expressed in ASD peripheral leukocytes, including 2407 that were upregulated and 1522 that were downregulated. Simultaneously, 2591 messenger RNAs (mRNAs), including 1789 upregulated and 821 downregulated, were also identified in ASD leukocytes. Functional pathway analysis of these lncRNAs revealed neurological pathways of the synaptic vesicle cycling, long-term depression and long-term potentiation to be primarily involved. Thirteen synaptic lncRNAs, including nine upregulated and four downregulated, and 19 synaptic mRNAs, including 12 upregulated and seven downregulated, were identified as being differentially expressed in ASD. Our identification of differential expression of synaptic lncRNAs and mRNAs suggested that synaptic vesicle transportation and cycling are important for the delivery of synaptosomal protein(s) between presynaptic and postsynaptic membranes in ASD. Finding of 19 lncRNAs, which are the antisense, bi-directional and intergenic, of HOX genes may lead us to investigate the role of HOX genes involved in the development of ASD. Discovery of the lncRNAs of SHANK2-AS and BDNF-AS, the natural antisense of genes SHANK2 and BDNF, respectively, indicates that in addition to gene mutations, deregulation of lncRNAs on ASD-causing gene loci presents a new approach for exploring possible epigenetic mechanisms underlying ASD. Our study also opened a new avenue for exploring the use of lncRNA(s) as biomarker(s) for the early detection of ASD.

Identification of transcript dysregulation in patients with Autism Spectrum Disorders

Project description:In order to unveil the molecular mechanisms at play during the development of autistic brains, we studied cells that are representative of the very early stages of ontogenesis, namely stem cells. We used nasal olfactory stem cells that are readily accessible and can be biopsied safely. We recruited a relatively homogeneous cohort of nine adults with severe autism and low to very low developmental disabilities, and included two more adults with either Asperger syndrome or high-functioning autism, to enlarge the spectrum. The cohort was then paired with 11 age- and gender-matched control individuals. Stem cells were purified, banked and used for a transcriptomic study. Two-colors experiment. The cohort was then paired with 11 age- and gender-matched control individuals. Stem cells were purified, banked and used for a transcriptomic study. Validation by reverse transcription design.
