Astrocytic trans-differentiation completes a multicellular paracrine feedback loop required for medulloblastoma tumor growth

ABSTRACT: We used RNA-sequencing technology for high-throughput profiling of tumor-derived astrocytes. Laser capture microdissection of individual cells was performed on an ArcturusXT LCM system (Applied Biosystems) with an infrared laser using CapSure HS LCM caps after optimization of laser power and duration. For each sample, 250 cells were microdissected per LCM cap and split into five 50-cell technical replicates (as a control, one replicate did not undergo reverse transcription) after elution from the cap. Reamplified cDNA (~500 bp 3’ ends) was purified away from primer concatemers by two rounds of purification with 0.7x volume of AMPure XP beads (Beckman) according to the manufacturer’s recommendations, and purified cDNA was quantified by Qubit assay (Life Technologies). For each sample, 1 ng was tagmented with the Nextera XT kit (Illumina) and sequenced as 75 bp paired-end reads on a NextSeq instrument using v2 reagents (Illumina). 14–22 million reads per sample were filtered for signal to noise (chastity filtered), assessed for overall quality with FastQC (http://www.bioinformatics.babraham.ac.uk/projects/fastqc/), and then mapped with STAR (Dobin et al., 2013) against the mouse genome build mm10.

Project description:Levodopa-induced dyskinesia (LID) is a persistent behavioral sensitization that develops after repeated levodopa (L-DOPA) exposure in Parkinson disease (PD) patients. we used reduced representation bisulfite sequencing to determine the methylation status of cytosines genome wide at base pair resolution following a parkinsonian-like lesion and LID development. Due to the enrichment of RRBS, we focused our analysis to cytosines in a CpG context and observed extensive locus-specific changes in DNA methylation, including a preponderance of demethylation, in the dorsal striatum following the development of dyskinetic behaviors in our animal model system. Changes in DNA methylation were concentrated in putative regulatory regions of many genes known to be aberrantly transcribed following L-DOPA exposure and enriched for genes relevant to mechanisms of synaptic plasticity. In the areas of the genome exhibiting the highest levels of effect, the magnitudes of change to methylation were strongly correlated with dyskinetic behaviors. Rats were given a unilateral dopaminergic lesion to the left medial forebrain bundle with 6-OHDA to destroy at least 90% of TH positive axons. Animals were allowed to recover for 3 weeks and then given daily injections of L-DOPA (6 mg/kg) for seven days to establish stable dyskinesia. Animals were sacked 3 hrs following the final L-DOPA injection and the dorsal striatum was immediately dissected and flash frozen. Striatal tissue samples were processed for nucleic acid isolation using the AllPrep DNA/RNA Mini Kit (Qiagen) following the manufacturer's instructions. One Î¼g of gDNA sample was used for library construction. Bisulfite converted DNA libraries were produced and adaptor ligated, and single-end reads were sequenced on an Illumina HiSeq-2500 following library QC. Bisulfite conversion efficiency was greater that 98% for all of the samples and we obtained an average of 68 million reads per library. Quality control on raw reads was performed with FastQC (version 0.10.1, http://www.bioinformatics.bbsrc.ac.uk/projects/fastqc), and adaptor trimming and removal of trimmed reads shorter than 20 bp was performed with Trim Galore (version 0.3.7, http://www.bioinformatics.babraham.ac.uk/projects/trim_galore). Trimmed reads were mapped to the UCSC Rattus norvegicus rn5 genome with the methylation-aware mapper bismark (version 0.13.0). Samtools (version 0.1.19â??96b5f2294a) was used to sort SAM files produced by bismark and de-duplicate reads. SAM files were analyzed using MethylKit (version 0.9.2) in R (Akalin et al., 2012). Reads were filtered based on coverage, with a cutoff of at least ten reads per site, and normalized for each samples coverage before analysis. The genome was tiled at 250 bp and regions were counted if they contained at least 2 identified CpGs per tile. Differential methylation was defined as a sliding linear model correct p-value of <0.01 and, for highly dynamic regions, included at least a 5% change.
