Single Cell Sequencing Analysis for Wolfram Syndrome (WS4) Unedited and Corrected Stem Cell-Derived Beta Cells

ABSTRACT: We revealed transcriptome differences between corrected and unedited (diseased) Wolfram Syndrome patient stem cell-derived beta cells. We also identified several endocrine, pancreatic, and non-pancreatic cell types in the samples populations.

ISR inhibition reverses pancreatic β-cell failure in Wolfram syndrome models

Project description:Pancreatic β-cell failure induced by WFS1 deficiency is manifested in wolfram syndrome (WS). The lack of a suitable human model in WS has hampered the progress in developing new treatments. Here, human pluripotent stem cell derived pancreatic β cells (SC-β cells) harboring WFS1-deficiency and mouse model of β cell-specific Wfs1 knockout were applied to model β-cell failure in WS. Single-cell RNA sequencing of WFS1-deficient SC-β cells revealed two cell fates along pseudotime trajectory including maturation and stress branch. WFS1 deficiency blocked β-cell fate trajectory to maturation but pushed it towards stress trajectory leading to β-cell failure.

Multidimensional analysis and therapeutic development using patient iPSC-derived disease models of Wolfram syndrome

Project description:Wolfram syndrome is a rare genetic disorder largely caused by pathogenic variants in the WFS1 gene and manifested by diabetes mellitus, optic nerve atrophy, and progressive neurodegeneration. Recent genetic and clinical findings have revealed Wolfram syndrome as a spectrum disorder. Therefore, a genotype-phenotype correlation analysis is needed for diagnosis and therapeutic development. Here, we focus on the WFS1 c.1672C>T, p.R558C variant which is highly prevalent in the Ashkenazi-Jewish population. Clinical investigation indicates that subjects carrying the homozygous WFS1 c.1672C>T, p.R558C variant show mild forms of Wolfram syndrome phenotypes. Expression of WFS1 p.R558C is more stable compared to the other known recessive pathogenic variants associated with Wolfram syndrome. Human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived islets (SC-islets) homozygous for WFS1 c.1672C>T variant recapitulate genotype-related Wolfram syndrome phenotypes. Enhancing residual WFS1 function by a combination treatment of chemical chaperones mitigates detrimental effects caused by the WFS1 c.1672C>T, p.R558C variant and increases insulin secretion in SC-islets. Thus, the WFS1 c.1672C>T, p.R558C variant causes a mild form of Wolfram syndrome phenotypes, which can be remitted with a combination treatment of chemical chaperones. We demonstrate that our patient iPSC-derived disease model provides a valuable platform for further genotype-phenotype analysis and therapeutic development for Wolfram syndrome.

Early developmental alteration of neurite outgrowth occurs besides late-appearing neurodegenerative processes in Wolfram syndrome

Project description:Developmental alteration in brain wiring that would make it more susceptible to later pathological processes has been suggested as a basis for the occurrence of neurodegenerative diseases, but mechanisms have remained elusive. A recent series of magnetic resonance imaging studies have demonstrated that, in Wolfram syndrome, neurodegenerative processes appear during childhood and adolescence on top of a clinically silent global defect in brain development. Here, differentiation of induced pluripotent stem cell lines derived from Wolfram syndrome patients’ cells along the neural lineage has revealed phenotypic and molecular correlates of that global brain defect. A proportion of neural cells displayed aberrant neurite outgrowth associated with alterations in the expression of genes involved in axonal guidance. In contrast, an activation of endoplasmic reticulum stress response genes was absent while it is present in late Wolfram syndrome degenerative processes. These results concur to the broader hypothesis that axon guidance genes may play a role in the susceptibility to neurodegenerative diseases.

Patient iPSCs with NEUROG3 mutation reveal pancreatic insufficiency

Project description:Patients with NEUROGENIN3 mutations have enteric endocrinopathy and diabetes mellitus. We generated pluripotent stem cells from a patient’s fibroblasts to investigate if gene editing restores endocrine differentiation. Corrected cell lines differentiated into all pancreatic lineages while native cell lines failed to activate pancreatic progenitor and lineage determination genes, suggesting that the mutation disrupts pancreatic organogenesis and results in endocrine and exocrine dysfunction. Clinical testing revealed the patient has exocrine pancreatic insufficiency. These results expose a novel role for NEUROGENIN3 in human pancreatic differentiation and illustrates how patient-specific stem cells can be used to interrogate disease etiology and affect patient care.

Wolfram (DIDMOAD) syndrome.

Project description:Wolfram syndrome (MIM 222300) is the association of juvenile onset diabetes mellitus and optic atrophy, also known as DIDMOAD (Diabetes Insipidus, Diabetes Mellitus, Optic Atrophy, and Deafness). Patients present with diabetes mellitus followed by optic atrophy in the first decade, cranial diabetes insipidus and sensorineural deafness in the second decade, dilated renal outflow tracts early in the third decade, and multiple neurological abnormalities early in the fourth decade. Other abnormalities include primary gonadal atrophy. Death occurs prematurely, often from respiratory failure associated with brainstem atrophy. Most patients eventually develop all complications of this progressive, neurodegenerative disorder. The pathogenesis is unknown, but the prevalence is 1 in 770000 in the UK and inheritance is autosomal recessive. A Wolfram gene has recently been mapped to chromosome 4p16.1, but there is evidence for locus heterogeneity, and it is still possible that a minority of patients may harbour a mitochondrial genome deletion. The best available diagnostic criteria are juvenile onset diabetes mellitus and optic atrophy, but there is a wide differential diagnosis which includes other causes of neurodegeneration.

Wolfram syndrome: MAMs' connection?

Project description:Wolfram syndrome (WS) is a rare neurodegenerative disease, the main pathological hallmarks of which associate with diabetes, optic atrophy, and deafness. Other symptoms may be identified in some but not all patients. Prognosis is poor, with death occurring around 35 years of age. To date, no treatment is available. WS was first described as a mitochondriopathy. However, the localization of the protein on the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane challenged this hypothesis. ER contacts mitochondria to ensure effective Ca2+ transfer, lipids transfer, and apoptosis within stabilized and functionalized microdomains, termed "mitochondria-associated ER membranes" (MAMs). Two types of WS are characterized so far and Wolfram syndrome type 2 is due to mutation in CISD2, a protein mostly expressed in MAMs. The aim of the present review is to collect evidences showing that WS is indeed a mitochondriopathy, with established MAM dysfunction, and thus share commonalities with several neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, as well as metabolic diseases, such as diabetes.
