Dysregulation of RNA splicing in tauopathies

ABSTRACT: Pathological aggregation of RNA binding proteins (RBPs) has emerged as an important driver of multiple neurodegenerative diseases. Since RBP aggregation may result in a loss of normal RBP function, we examined whether dysregulation of RNA metabolism contributes to tauopathies. We find that the PS19 P301S tau mouse model exhibits a dysregulation of RNA splicing that is also apparent upon analysis of human Alzheimer’s disease brain tissues. Dysregulated splicing particularly affected genes involved in synaptic transmission. We also analyzed alternative splicing in PS19 mice crossed to a heterozygous TIA1 background, which has recently been shown to slow disease progression. TIA1 reduction alleviated several of the most significant alternative splicing events for synaptic mRNA transcripts, suggesting that normalization of RBP functions is associated with the neuroprotection. We then used a systems biology approach termed NetDecoder to identify key upstream biological targets, including MYC and EGFR, underlying the transcriptional and splicing changes in the protected compared to tauopathy mice. Importantly, pharmacological inhibition of MYC and EGFR activity in primary neurons overexpressing tau recapitulated the neuroprotective effects of TIA1 reduction. These results demonstrate that dysfunction of RBPs and RNA splicing processes are major elements of the pathophysiology of tauopathies, and identify new potential therapeutic targets for tauopathies.

Increased G3BP2-Tau interaction in Tauopathies is a natural defense against Tau aggregation

Project description:Many RNA-binding proteins (RBPs), particularly those associated with RNA granules, promote pathological protein aggregation in neurodegenerative diseases. Here, we demonstrate that G3BP2, a core component of stress granules, directly interacts with Tau and inhibits Tau aggregation. In the human brain, the interaction of G3BP2 and Tau is dramatically increased in multiple Tauopathies and precedes neurofibrillary tangle (NFT) formation in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Surprisingly, Tau pathology is significantly elevated upon loss of G3BP2 in human neurons and brain organoids. Moreover, we find that G3BP2 masks the microtubule-binding region (MTBR) of Tau, thereby inhibiting Tau aggregation. Our study defines a novel role for RBPs as a line of defense against Tau aggregation in Tauopathies.

Bassoon contributes to tau-seed neurotoxicity and propagation.

Project description:Tau aggregates are critical pathological features of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and other tauopathies. Growing evidence suggests that soluble tau aggregates trigger neurodegenerative phenotypes. However, the nature of the tau species and interactors involved in its aggregation and spreading remains unclear. By using size exclusion chromatography, mass spectrometry, and bioinformatic analysis, we identified Bassoon protein (BSN) as a significant tau interactor in PS19 mice, as well as in human AD and PSP cases. We also found that overexpression of BSN triggers the aggregation of tau and increase the tau seeding activity in vitro, and also exacerbates the degenerative phenotype in a Fly model for tauopathy. Knockdown of BSN significantly reduced tau spreading in PS19 mouse brains and destabilized the tau aggregates, leading to a reduction in the tau pathology in this model. Furthermore, BSN downregulation was able to restore the neurodegenerative phenotype in PS19 mice, observed in electrophysiology and behavioral tests. Our results identify BSN as a key interactor of tau spread and aggregation in the brain, and therefore a potential target for the treatment of diseases that involve tau spread and aggregation.

LncRNA/mRNA sequencing analysis on cerebral cortex of P301S mutant Tau transgenic mice (PS19).

Project description:Aggregation of the microtubule-associated protein, tau, can lead to neurofibrillary tangle formation in neurons and glia, the hallmark of tauopathy. The cellular damages induced by the tau overexpression and aggregation may lead to multiple pathologic features of tauopathy. However, the effect of aging on tauopathy has not been elucidated yet. Here, we conducted lncRNA/mRNA sequencing analysis on P301S mutant Tau transgenic mouse model (PS19) with different ages to track the genetic changes occurred by the aging and progression of tau overexpression.

Microglial NF-κB drives tau spreading and toxicity in a mouse model of tauopathy [snRNA-Seq]

Project description:Activation of microglia is a prominent pathological feature in tauopathies, including Alzheimer’s disease. How microglia activation contributes to tau toxicity remains largely unknown. Here we show that nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB) signaling, activated by tau, drives microglial-mediated tau propagation and toxicity. Constitutive activation of microglial NF-κB exacerbated, while inactivation diminished, tau seeding and spreading in young PS19 mice. Inhibition of NF-B activation enhanced the retention while reduced the release of internalized pathogenic tau fibrils from primary microglia and rescued microglial autophagy deficits. Remarkably, inhibition of microglial NF-κB in aged PS19 mice rescued tau-mediated learning and memory deficits, restored overall transcriptomic changes while increasing neuronal tau inclusions. Single cell RNA-seq revealed that tau-associated disease states in microglia were diminished by NF-B inactivation and further transformed by constitutive NF-B activation. Our study establishes a central role for microglial NF-B signaling in mediating tau spreading and toxicity in tauopathy.

TIA1 interactome from mouse cortex

Project description:The purpose of this experiment was to characterize the network of proteins that interact with TIA1, and to investigate whether tau exerts control over TIA1 protein interactions, TIA1 was immunoprecipitated from cortical brain tissue of 10 month-old WT (C57BL/6J), tau-/- and TIA1-/- mice. The specificity of the TIA1 IP was verified by immunoblotting with anti-TIA1 antibody (Fig. 3A), and the resulting TIA1 proteome was examined by mass spectrometry.

The RNA-binding proteins TIA1 and TIAL1 are required for the expression of the DNA damage repair machinery during B cell lymphopoiesis

Project description:B-cell lymphopoiesis requires dynamic modulation of the B-cell transcriptome at the post-transcriptional level, although the implication of RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) remain largely unknown. Here we show that the RBPs TIA1 and TIAL1 are essential in B cells and, if deleted, there is a developmental block at the pro-B cell stage. TIA1 and TIAL1 have redundant functions. They act together as global splicing regulators for the expression of mRNAs including those involved in DNA damage repair in pro-B cells. Mechanistically, TIA1 and TIAL1 bind to 5’splice sites for exon definition, splicing and expression of DNA damage sensors like Chek2 and Rif1. In their absence, pro-B cells show exacerbated DNA damage, altered P53 expression and increased cell death. Altogether, our study uncovers the importance of tight regulation of mRNA splicing by TIA1 and TIAL1 for the expression of integrative transcriptional programs for DNA damage sensing and repair during B-cell development.
