Gene expression in a mouse model of Pantothenate Kinase-Associated Neurodegeneration

ABSTRACT: A mouse model lacking systemic expression of Pank1 together with neuronal deletion of Pank2 was generated and revealed a developmental requirement for CoA that, when deficient, resulted in abnormal motor behavior preceding early death. Neuronal Pank2 expression in Pank1-/-Syn-Pank2-/- double knockout mice (dKO) decreased starting at P9-11 and brain CoA levels did not increase subsequently, in contrast to wild-type matched control animals. The Pank1-/-Syn-Pank2-/- dKO mice developed a forelimb deformity and abnormal gait behavior, similar to PKAN patients, and lost weight when brain CoA became depressed relative to wild-type levels. Comparative gene expression analysis revealed significant alteration of a relatively small selection of genes, including reduction of gene transcripts affecting heme and hemoglobin synthesis together with upregulation of gene transcripts related to the response to oxygen/glucose deprivation.

Polycomb group proteins adjust the threshold for retinoic acid mediated signaling during early proximal-distal patterning in forelimb development

Project description:Polycomb group (PcG) proteins play a pivotal role in epigenetically silencing development-related genes, restricting their expression to appropriate tissues. However, in some instances PcG target genes must also be dynamically regulated in response to developmental signals encountered during morphogenesis. Here we examine the role of PcG factors in early forelimb bud patterning, a process that relies on various morphogenetic signals. Depletion of Ring1 proteins, which are essential components of Polycomb repressive complex-1 (PRC1), led to dramatic deficiencies in forelimb formation and proximal-distal regionalization. Gene expression analysis identified Meis2 and Meis1 as critical PRC1 targets genes in early distal specification, with PcG proteins counteracting retinoic acid (RA) signaling to control their expression. Importantly, in this system, PcG factors appear to function by adjusting the threshold for RA signaling, revealing an unexpected role of polycomb proteins in dynamic gene regulation during development.

Gene expression level changes during the formation of a-synuclein newly formed fibrils and their maturation into LB-like inclusions in a neuronal seeding model

Project description:Parkinson’s disease (PD) is characterized by the accumulation of misfolded and aggregated alpha-synuclein (α-syn) into intraneuronal inclusions named Lewy bodies (LB). Although it is widely believed that α-syn plays a central role in the pathogenesis of PD, the processes that govern α-syn fibrillization and LB formation remain poorly understood. In this work, we sought to dissect the spatiotemporal events involved in the biogenesis of the LBs at the genetic, molecular, biochemical, structural, and cellular levels. Towards this goal, we further developed a seeding-based model of α-syn fibrillization to generate a neuronal model that reproduces all the key events leading to LB formation; including seeding, fibrillization, and the formation of inclusions that recapitulate many of the biochemical, structural, and organizational features of bona fide LBs. Using an integrative omics, biochemical and imaging approach, we dissected the molecular events associated with the different stages of LB formation and their contribution to neuronal dysfunction and degeneration. In addition, we demonstrate that LB formation involves a complex interplay between α-syn fibrillization, post-translational modifications, and interactions between α-syn aggregates and membranous organelles, including mitochondria, the autophagosome and endolysosome. Finally, we show that the process of LB formation, rather than simply fibril formation, is the major driver of neurodegeneration through disruption of cellular functions and inducing mitochondria damage and deficits, and synaptic dysfunctions. We believe that this model represents a powerful platform to further investigate the mechanisms of LB formation and clearance and to screen and evaluate novel therapeutics targeting α-syn aggregation and LB formation.

RNA sequencing of ipsilateral cortex after transient focal ischemia in mice

Project description:We report the application of Illumina paired-end RNA-seq approach for transcriptome of brain tissue in mice. By removing sequence-dependent bias and amplification noise using UMI-tools. The mapped reads of each sample were assembled using StringTie. After the final transcriptome was generated, StringTie and edgeR was used to estimate the expression levels of all transcripts. By obtaining a total of million paired-end reads of sequence from cerebral cortex tissue, we generated transcriptome profiles of mouse ischemic cortex in sham, 24 h after focal ischemia, 28 d after focal ischemia, with or without neuron-specific knockdown of TIPARP, respectively. We found 2017 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between Sham+AAV-SYN-shRNA-Con and tMCAO+AAV-SYN-shRNA-Con group, and 516 DEGs between tMCAO+AAV-SYN-shRNA-Con and tMCAO+AAV-SYN-shRNA-TIPARP group at 24 h after stroke. In addition, we found 487 DEGs between Sham+AAV-SYN-shRNA-Con and tMCAO+AAV-SYN-shRNA-Con group, and 192 DEGs between tMCAO+AAV-SYN-shRNA-Con and tMCAO+AAV-SYN-shRNA-TIPARP group at 28 d after stroke. This study provides a detailed analysis of the underlying mechanisms of neuron-specific knockdown of TIPARP in neuronal injury and long-term effect, with biologic replicates, generated by RNA-seq technology.

Project description:This experiment studies the gene expression in the mature olfactory sensory neurons and the intermidiate neuronal progenitors in the olfactory epithelia during the critical period. Mature olfactory sensory neurons from OMP-GFP mice and intermediate neuronal progenitors in the olfactory epithelia from Neurog1-GFP mice were FACS purified. PolyA RNA profiles at P2, P3, P7, P9, and P16 were generated by RNA-Seq.

Identification of proteins interacting with extracellularly applied α-syn assemblies, Condition 2 - controls (3/8)

Project description:Fibrillar α-Synuclein (α-Syn) is the principal component of Lewy bodies which are evident in individuals affected by Parkinson disease (PD). This neuropathologic form of α-Syn contributes to PD progression and propagation of exogeneous α-Syn between neurons has been demonstrated. In order to identify proteins interacting with extracellularly applied α-syn assemblies (either oligomeric or fibrillar α -syn) and identify in particular plasma membrane proteins exposed extracellularly, we exposed pure-neuronal cultures to oligomeric and fibrillar α-syn for 10 min, pulled down the complex, and identified the associated proteins using a proteomic-based approach. Using pull-down of whole cell lysates and MS, we have identified proteins interacting with extracellularly applied α-syn in three different conditions. Each condition consisted in three experimental replicates of cells exposed 10 min to α-syn assemblies and the non-treated cells used as controls.
