Project description:Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a severe neurodegenerative condition characterized by loss of motor neurons in the brain and spinal cord. Expansions of a hexanucleotide repeat (GGGGCC) in the noncoding region of the C9ORF72 gene are the most common cause of the familial form of ALS (C9-ALS), as well as frontotemporal lobar degeneration and other neurological diseases. How the repeat expansion causes disease remains unclear, with both loss of function (haploinsufficiency) and gain of function (either toxic RNA or protein products) proposed. We report a cellular model of C9-ALS with motor neurons differentiated from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) derived from ALS patients carrying the C9ORF72 repeat expansion. No significant loss of C9ORF72 expression was observed, and knockdown of the transcript was not toxic to cultured human motor neurons. Transcription of the repeat was increased, leading to accumulation of GGGGCC repeat–containing RNA foci selectively in C9-ALS iPSC-derived motor neurons. Repeat-containing RNA foci colocalized with hnRNPA1 and Pur-?, suggesting that they may be able to alter RNA metabolism. C9-ALS motor neurons showed altered expression of genes involved in membrane excitability including DPP6, and demonstrated a diminished capacity to fire continuous spikes upon depolarization compared to control motor neurons. Antisense oligonucleotides targeting the C9ORF72 transcript suppressed RNA foci formation and reversed gene expression alterations in C9-ALS motor neurons. These data show that patient-derived motor neurons can be used to delineate pathogenic events in ALS. Transcriptome profiling from iPSC derived motor neurons compared to controls

Project description:Background: Following spinal cord injury (SCI), the inflammatory storm initiated by microglia/macrophages poses a significant impediment to the recovery process. Exosomes play a crucial role in the transport of miRNAs, facilitating essential cellular communication through the transfer of genetic material. However, the miRNAs from iPSC-NSCs-Exos and their potential mechanisms leading to repair after SCI remain unclear. This study aims to explore the role of iPSC-NSCs-Exos in microglia/macrophage pyroptosis and reveal their potential mechanisms. Methods: iPSC-NSCs-Exos were characterized and identified using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA), and Western blot. A mouse SCI model and a series of in vivo and in vitro experiments were conducted to investigate the therapeutic effects of iPSC-NSCs-Exos. Subsequently, miRNA microarray analysis and rescue experiments were performed to confirm the role of miRNAs in iPSC-NSCs-Exos in SCI. Mechanistic studies were carried out using Western blot, luciferase activity assays, and RNA-ChIP. Results: Our findings revealed that iPSC-NSCs-derived exosomes inhibited microglia/macrophage pyroptosis at 7 days post-SCI, maintaining myelin integrity and promoting axonal growth, ultimately improving mice motor function. The miRNA microarray showed let-7b-5p to be highly enriched in iPSC-NSCs-Exos, and LRIG3 was identified as the target gene of let-7b-5p. Through a series of rescue experiments, we uncovered the connection between iPSC-NSCs and microglia/macrophages, revealing a novel target for treating SCI. Conclusion: In conclusion, we discovered that iPSC-NSCs-derived exosomes can package and deliver let-7b-5p, regulating the expression of LRIG3 to ameliorate microglia/macrophage pyroptosis and enhance motor function in mice after SCI. This highlights the potential of combined therapy with iPSC-NSCs-Exos and let-7b-5p in promoting functional recovery and limiting inflammation following SCI.

Project description:RNA sequence was performed using mRNAs of motor neurons derived from iPSCs of four patients of spinal bulbar muscular atrophy (SBMA) and four age- and sex- matched controls. The analysis was performed using purified motor neurons by flowcytometry and cell sorting based on the expression of HB9e438::Venus reporter gene (P4) or unpurified motor neurons (NT).

Project description:Background: Although many cardiovascular disease studies have focused on the characteristics of microRNAs in circulating exosomes, the profile and the potential clinical diagnostic value of plasma exosomal long RNAs (exoLRs) in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is still unknown. Methods: In this study, exoLRs profile of 10 AMI patients, 8 stable coronary artery disease (CAD) patients, and 10 healthy individuals were achieved by exosomes isolation and RNA sequencing. Bioinformatics approaches were used to investigate the features and potential clinical value of exoLRs. Results: Exosomal messenger RNAs (mRNAs) made up a majority of the total exoLRs. Immune cell types analyzed by CIBERSORT showed that neutrophils and monocytes were significantly enriched in the AMI group which were consistent with the clinical baseline characteristic. The biological processes enrichment analyses of different exosomal mRNAs and co-expression network analysis both indicated that neutrophils activation associated processes were enriched in the AMI group. We further identified two exosomal mRNA ALPL and CXCR2 which might be served as potential biomarkers for AMI diagnosis. Conclusions: Our study explored the alteration of exoLRs in the AMI patients which was associated with the acute inflammatory response mediated by neutrophils. Exosomal mRNAs ALPL and CXCR2 might be potentially useful for AMI diagnosis.
