Project description:This project studies TDP43, which is an RNA binding protein implicated in Motor Neuron Disease. As an RNA-binding protein, TDP43 is known to influences poly-adenylation site choice. For this project, we have inserted a single copy of the GFP-tagged TDP43 gene into the FLPIn Locus of HEk293 cells. We use these Hek293 FLipIn lines to instigate the effect of different deletion and mutation constructs of TDP-43 in their ability to rescue the depletion (siRNA) of the endogenous TDP-43 protein. We are comparing siRNA mediated KD in triplicates for each of the 7 cell lines to the Dox-induced rescues in triplicates. We are using a customised Lexogen Quantseq 3’ end sequencing method that allows us to multiplex cDNAs straight after the reverse transcription. The samples were pooled into barcoded sub-groups, each group will have the Lexogen barcode (i7 indices) in addition.

Project description:Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is the most common and fatal motor neuron disease. Approximately 90% of ALS patients exhibit pathology of the master RNA regulator, Transactive Response DNA Binding protein (TDP-43). Despite the prevalence TDP-43 pathology in ALS motor neurons, recent findings suggest immune dysfunction is a determinant of disease progression in patients. Whether TDP-43 aggregates elicit immune responses remains underexplored. In this study, we demonstrate that TDP-43 aggregates are internalized by antigen presenting cell populations, cause vesicle rupture, and drive innate and adaptive immune cell activation by way of antigen presentation. Using a multiplex imaging platform, we observed enrichment of activated microglia/macrophages in ALS white matter that correlated with phosphorylated TDP-43 accumulation, CD8 T-cell infiltration, and major histocompatibility complex expression. Taken together, this study sheds light on a novel cellular response to TDP43 aggregates through an immunological lens.

Project description:Exploring the intricate link between sleep and brain degeneration holds great promise for the development of effective therapeutics. Here we provide novel insights into the role of TDP-43 and Atx2 in regulating sleep and neurodegeneration using Drosophila. We demonstrate that expression of TDP-43 severely disrupts sleep, resulting in reduced sleep duration of the affected animals. Sleep disruption by TDP-43 is completely rescued by Atx2 knockdown. To unravel the underlying mechanism of TDP43 sleep disruption and Atx2-mediated rescue, we conducted brain RNA sequencing analysis from flies expressing TDP-43 with or without Atx2 knockdown. Among RNAseq changes, we observed upregulation of genes associated with small molecule metabolism with TDP-43 expression, followed by their subsequent downregulation upon Atx2 knockdown. Utilizing these Atx2-regulated genes, we conducted an RNAi screen to identify additional sleep modifiers that interact with TDP-43.

Project description:Cytoplasmic aggregation and nuclear depletion of TDP-43 are hallmarks of several age-related neurodegenerative disorders. Yet, recapitulating both features in cellular systems has been a major challenge. Here, we produced amyloid-like fibrils from the recombinant low-complexity-domain of TDP-43, and demonstrate that sonicated fibrils trigger TDP-43 pathology in human cell lines and iPSC-derived neurons. Fibril-induced cytoplasmic TDP-43 inclusions acquire distinct biophysical properties, recapitulate pathological hallmarks such as phosphorylation, ubiquitin- and p62-accumulation, and recruit nuclear endogenous TDP-43 leading to nuclear-loss-of-function-driven disease-specific cryptic splicing defects. Cytoplasmic TDP-43 aggregates exhibit, with time, distinct heterogeneous morphologies as in patients including compacted, filamentous or fragmented, through the activation of cellular protein clearance pathways. Cell-specific progressive toxicity is provoked by seeded TDP-43 pathology in human neurons. These findings identify templated aggregation of TDP-43 as a key mechanism driving both cytoplasmic gain- and nuclear-loss-of-function, offering a valuable approach to identify modifiers of sporadic TDP-43 proteinopathies.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play important roles in a wide range of cellular processes. Aberrant regulation of miRNA genes contributes to human diseases, including cancer. The TAR DNA binding protein 43 (TDP-43), a DNA/RNA binding protein associated with neurodegeneration, is involved in miRNA biogenesis. Here, we systematically examined miRNAs whose expression levels are regulated by TDP-43 using RNA-Seq coupled with siRNA-mediated knockdown approach. TDP-43 knocking down affected the expression of a number of miRNAs. Alterations in isomiR patterns and miRNA arm selection after TDP-43 knockdown suggest a role of TDP-43 in miRNA editing. We examined correlation of selected TDP-43 associated miRNAs and their candidate target genes in human cancers. Our data reveal highly complex roles of TDP-43 in regulating different miRNAs and their target genes. Our results suggest that TDP-43 may promote migration of lung cancer cells by regulating miR-423-3p expression. On the other hand, TDP-43 increases miR-500a-3p expression and binds to the mature miR-500a-3p sequence. Low expression of miR-500a-3p was associated with poor survival of lung cancer patients, suggesting that TDP-43 may have a suppressive role in cancer by regulating miR-500a-3p. Our experiments reveal that cancer-associated genes LIF and PAPPA may be targets of miR-500a-3p. Together with other studies, our work suggests that TDP-43-regulated miRNAs may play multi-facet roles in the pathogenesis of cancer. small RNA seq in SH-SY-5Y, SNB-19 and HT22 (TDP-43 siRNA VS Control siRNA)

Project description:Recent studies exploring the underlying pathomechanisms of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), a fatal motor neuron disorder, have focused on biomolecular condensates, such as stress granules (SGs) and TDP-43 condensates. Our comprehension of the physicochemical processes that control the behavior of these condensates is still evolving. In this work, we reveal an unexpected function for YAP, a central component of the Hippo pathway, in regulating the dynamic behavior of SGs and TDP-43 condensates, a role that is independent of its transcriptional activity in Hippo pathway. We found that YAP can directly bind to the TB domain of TDP-43 through its N-terminal domain. This interaction promotes the homotypic multimerization and phase separation of TDP-43, while inhibiting its hyper- phosphorylation and solidification under stress conditions. Remarkably, YAP, whose mRNA level is reduced in ALS patients, is found to co-localize with pathological pTDP-43 aggregates in the cytoplasmic foci of ALS patient brains. Additionally, elevating YAP/Yorkie expression substantially reduces neurotoxicity in a TDP-43 transgenic fly model of ALS. Our findings highlight an unexpected chaperone-like role of YAP in managing ALS-associated biomolecular condensates, presenting significant implications for potential ALS treatments.
