Project description:Cytoplasmic RNA granules have emerged as important elements of posttranscriptional and translational regulation. Stress, germinal and neuronal granules contain RNA-binding proteins capable of self-assembly due to prion-like domains. Hyperassembly mediated by these prion-like domains causes several neurodegenerative diseases. Here, we report a subset of the mammalian prion protein (PrP), also prone to self-assembly, propagation and to cause devastating diseases, is a component of naturally occurring messenger ribonucleoproteins (mRNPs) in adult mouse brains. Biomolecules co-purified with PrP revealed a multitude of diverse RNA granule associated proteins and mRNAs encoding members of the translation machinery, indicating a role in a specialized translation process. Importantly, PrP mutations linked to Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) or fatal familial insomnia (FFI) severely impaired recovery of mRNPs from preclinical mice, possibly representing a very early pathological process. Thus, mutant PrP may cause dysfunction in RNA regulation, thereby joining the constantly expanding ranks of disease associated RNP granule proteins. The file Enrichment_analysis.xlsx contains mRNAs (FDR < 0.01) co-purified with PrP in both WT sample pools as identified by DESeq2 and the respective gene counts and log2 fold changes for CJD and FFI PrP:IP sample pools.

RIP-Seq analysis of mRNAs co-purified with PrP from murine brain cytoplasmic fractions in wild-type (WT), CJD and FFI mice. Each RIP-Seq and control (input) library represents a pool of 12 to 16 co-immunoprecipitation samples out of 3 to 4 mice. To control for post-homogenization artifacts, we conducted an experiment in which we prepared homogenates from WT and PrP-KO (Prnp-/-) mice of different genetic backgrounds (C57BL/6 and 129S4) and identified SNPs in RIP-Seq and control libraries to finally identify specifically co-purified mRNAs.

Project description:Human prion diseases are fatal neurodegenerative disorders characterized by neuronal damage in brain. Protein S-nitrosylation, the covalent adduction of a NO to cysteine, plays a role in human brain biology, and brain dysfunction is a prominent feature of pPrion disease, yet the direct brain targets of S-nitrosylation are largely unknown. We described the first proteomic analysis of global S-nitrosylation in brain tissues of sporadic Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease (sCJD), fatal familial insomnia (FFI) and genetic CJD with a substitution of valine for glycine at codon 114 of the prion protein gene (G114V gCJD) accompanying with normal control with isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ) combined with a nano-HPLC/Q Exactive Mass spectrometry platform. In parallel, we used several approaches to provide quality control for the experimentally defined S-nitrosylated proteins. Total 1509 S-nitrosylated proteins (SNO-proteins) were identified, and cerebellum tissues appeared to contain more commonly differentially expressed SNO-proteins (DESPs) than cortex of sCJD, FFI and gCJD. Three selected SNO-proteins were verified by Western blots, consistent with proteomics assays. Gene ontology analysis showed that more up-regulated DESPs were involved in metabolism, cell cytoskeleton/structure and immune system both in cortex and cerebellum, while more down-regulated ones in both regions were involved in cell cytoskeleton/structure, cell-cell communication and miscelaneous function protein. Pathway analysis suggested that systemic lupus erythematosus, pathogenic Escherichia coli infection, extracellular matrix-receptor interaction were the most commonly affected pathways, which were identified from at least two different diseases. Using STRING database, the network of immune system and cell cytoskeleton and structure were commonly identified in the context of the up-regulated and down-regulated DESPs, respectively, both in cortex and cerebellum. Our study thus have implications for understanding the molecular mechanisms of human prion diseases related to abnormal protein S-nitrosylation and pave the way for future studies focused on potential biomarkers for the diagnosis and therapy of human prion diseases.

Project description:The familial or genetic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (fCJD or gCJD) is the inherent form of human prion diseases, which accounts for approximately 10-15% of human prion diseases that are caused by mutations of the prion protein gene (PRNP). In this study, the global expression patterns of the parietal cortex from a patient with G114V gCJD were comparatively analyzed with the normal controls by using a commercial human genome expression chip. Totally 8774 genes showed differential expression, among them 2769 genes were upregulated and 6005 ones were downregulated. The reliability of the results was confirmed by the real-time RT-PCR assays for several specific genes. The most differentially expressed genes involved in the functions of regulation of transcription, ion transport, transcription, cell adhesion, signal transduction. The gene associated with gliosis was upregulated and the genes marked for neurons were downregulated, while the transcription of PRNP gene maintained unchanged. 169 different pathways showed significantly changed in the brain of G114V gCJD. The most significantly regulated pathways included that of Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease, oxidative phosphorylation, regulation of actin cytoskeleton, MAPK signaling pathway and proteasome, which were described in prion diseases previously. In addition, some rarely addressed pathways in prion diseases, such as axon guidance, gap junction and purine metabolism, were also significantly changed in G114V gCJD. The transcriptional situations of the most genes in the top ten changed pathways were down-regulated. The extensive reductions of gene expressions in G114V gCJD showed the comparable profiles with sporadic CJD. The data here raised the useful clues for understanding the pathogenesis of the disease and selecting the potential biomarkers for diagnostic and therapeutic tools. Brain tissues of parietal cortex from a definitely diagnosed G114V gCJD were enrolled into this study. The patient was a 47-year-old Han-Chinese woman at the onset. Neuropathological assays of ten different brain regions revealed typical sCJD-like abnormality and PrPSc deposits. Meanwhile, a commercial normal human parietal cortex total RNA (Clontech) pooled from four male/female aged 35-89 was utilized as control.

Project description:Prion diseases are fatal neurodegenerative disorders that include bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) and scrapie in animals and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) in humans. They are characterized by long incubation periods, variation in which is determined by many factors including genetic background. In some cases it is possible that incubation time may be directly correlated to the level of gene expression. In order to test this hypothesis we combined incubation time data from five different inbred lines of mice with quantitative gene expression profiling in normal brains and identified five genes with expression levels that correlate with incubation time. One of these genes, Hspa13 (Stch), is a member of the Hsp70 family of ATPase heat shock proteins which have been previously implicated in prion propagation. To test whether Hspa13 plays a causal role in determining the incubation period we tested two over-expressing mouse models. The Tc1 human chromosome 21 (Hsa21) transchromosomic mouse model of Down syndrome is trisomic for many Hsa21 genes including Hspa13 and following Chandler/RML prion inoculation shows a 4% reduction in incubation time. Furthermore, a transgenic model with eight fold over-expression of mouse Hspa13 exhibited highly significant reductions in incubation time of 16%, 15% and 7% following infection with Chandler/RML, ME7 and MRC2 prion strains respectively. These data further implicate Hsp70-like molecular chaperones in protein misfolding disorders such as prion disease. 5 inbred lines of mice, 5 samples for each line

Project description:Fatal familial insomnia (FFI) is a special subtype of genetic human prion diseases that is caused by the D178N mutation of the prion protein gene (PRNP). In this study, global expression patterns of the thalamus and parietal cortex from three patients with FFI were analyzed by Affymetrix Human Genome U133+ 2.0 chip. We used microarrays to detail the global gene expression in tissues from normal human and FFI patients thalamus, or parietal lobe. Tissues from normal human and FFI patients' thalamus, or parietal lobe were for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.
