Circular RNA characterization in functionally distinct brain regions

ABSTRACT: Circular RNAs (circRNAs) represent a class of endogenous, non-coding RNAs that are formed when exons back splice to each other and that are both highly conserved and pervasively expressed in the mammalian brain. The goal of this study was thus to systematically identify and characterize circRNA expression and as well as to evaluate the predicted impact on regulatory networks in five functionally distinct cortical regions of healthy aged human brain - cerebellum (BC), inferior parietal lobe (IPL), middle temporal gyrus (MTG), occipital cortex (OC) and superior frontal gyrus (SGF).

DNA methylation profiles of human brain tissue samples

Project description:The main goal of the study was to measure the epigenetic age (also known as DNA methylation age) of human tissues and to relate it to chronological age. Toward this end, we used the epigenetic clock software described in Horvath S (n=2013) DNA methylation age of human tissues and cell types. Genome Biology.2013, 14:R115.

DNA methylation levels of various brain regions from HIV+ and HIV- subjects

Project description:Genome wide DNA methylation profiles of various human brain regions (cerebellum, occipital lobe, etc). The Illumina Infinium 450k Human DNA methylation Beadchip v1.2 was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles across approximately 480,000 CpGs. The dataset includes 130 samples. Multiple brain regions were assessed per subject. The goal was to evaluate the effect of HIV infection on DNA methylation levels. Genome wide DNA methylation profiles of various brain regions from HIV positive and negative subjects. The Illumina Infinium 450k Human DNA methylation Beadchip v1.2 was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles across approximately 480,000 CpGs. Dataset included 130 samples: 99 samples from HIV+ subjects and 31 samples from HIV- subjects. The Illumina Infinium450 platform was applied to various brain regions from HIV+ and HIV- subjects. We evaluated 130 brain samples from 84 different subjects. Specifically, we considered cerebellum (20 HIV+ samples and 4 controls), frontal lobe (2 cases, 4 controls), hippocampus (4 controls), medial frontal cortex (18 cases), occipital cortex (59 cases, 13 controls), temporal cortex (4 controls). In total, there were 99 samples from HIV+ subjects and 31 samples from HIV- controls of similar ages. The subjects were recruited from the National Neurological AIDS Bank study or Multicenter AIDS Cohort study in Los Angeles. Informed consent and all study procedures were approved by the UCLA Medical IRB. DNAm data from HIV+ cases and HIV- controls were generated at the same time and randomized across plates and chips. HIV viral load information was available for blood (measured at the last blood draw) and for cerebrospinal fluid (CSF).

Circular RNAs in the mammalian brain are highly abundant, conserved, and dynamically expressed

Project description:Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are an endogenous class of animal RNAs. Despite their abundance, their function and expression in the nervous system are unknown. Therefore, we sequenced RNA from different brain regions, primary neurons, isolated synapses, as well as during neuronal differentiation. Using these and other available data, we discovered and analyzed thousands of neuronal human and mouse circRNAs. circRNAs were extraordinarily enriched in the mammalian brain, well conserved in sequence, often expressed as circRNAs in both human and mouse, and sometimes even detected in Drosophila brains. circRNAs were overall upregulated during neuronal differentiation, highly enriched in synapses, and often differentially expressed compared to their mRNA isoforms. circRNA expression correlated negatively with expression of the RNA-editing enzyme ADAR1. Knockdown of ADAR1 induced elevated circRNA expression. Together, we provide a circRNA brain expression atlas and evidence for important circRNA functions and values as biomarkers. To assess circRNA expression in mammalian brain, we sequenced and analyzed mouse brain regions (hippocampus, cerebellum, prefrontal cortex and olfactory bulb), various neuronal differentiation (mouse P19 and human SH-SY5Y cells) and maturation (mouse cortical neurons) stages, and subcellular compartments in mouse (synaptoneurosomal fraction, cytoplasmic fraction, whole brain lysate).

Microenvironment Impacts the Molecular Architecture and Interactivity of Resident Cells in Marmoset Brain

Project description:We sought to define and compare the diversity of cells across many brain areas, including various white matter (WM) regions, the volume and complexity of which is limited in mouse brain. We employed magnetic resonance (MR) image-guided sampling and snRNA-seq to survey the transcriptome at cellular resolution. Tissue types included WM (frontal, parietal, temporal), corpus callosum (anterior, posterior), optic tract, cerebral cortex (frontal, parietal, temporal, occipital, cingulate), caudate, hippocampus, lateral geniculate nucleus, cerebellum, thalamus, midbrain, pons, and cervical spinal cord. We profiled nuclei from confined regions (cylinders of tissue 2 mm in diameter and 3 mm in height, ~10 μL), which can be consistently located and repeated based on MR images from animal to animal. We analyze and discuss the global landscape of neural cell types across brain regions, comparing compositional differences of subpopulations of glia in GM and WM, modeling intercellular communication in each milieu, and cataloging their contributions to neurological disorders.

Brain-wide alterations revealed by spatial transcriptomics and proteomics in COVID-19 infection

Project description:Understanding the pathological basis of the neurological symptoms observed following SARS-CoV2 infection is essential to optimizing outcomes and developing therapeutics. We performed proteomics profiling across eight cortical and subcortical brain regions, frontal lobe, temporal lobe, occipital lobe, hippocampus, thalamus, basal ganglia, midbrain, and pons, using postmortem brain samples from severe acute COVID-19 patients and matched controls (n=16), all preserved as formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue. Integrating proteomics and additional transcriptomic analyses, we identified board dysregulation of mitochondrial and synaptic pathways in deep-layer excitatory neurons and changes exhibited similarities with those seen in various age-related neurodegenerative diseases, such as Parkinson's disease (PD) and Alzheimer's disease (AD).
