Divergent transcriptional regulation of astrocyte reactivity across disorders [TR_ATAC_SCI]

ABSTRACT: Single-nuclei Assay for Transposase-Accessible Chromatin with sequencing (snATACseq) was applied to examine chromatin landscape changes and transcriptional regulator (TR) DNA motif accessibility in reactive astrocytes following traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI). Astrocyte nuclei were isolated from the spinal cord of wild type mice and mice with astrocyte-specific conditional gene deletion (cKO) of test-case TRs, SMARCA4 (Smarca4-astro-cKO) or STAT3 knockout (Stat3-astro-cKO). Comparison of differential chromatin accessibility revealed substantial remodeling during astrocyte reactivity, with more chromatin opening than closing. Marked alterations in access to SCI reactivity-associated TR motifs were also detected.

Divergent transcriptional regulation of astrocyte reactivity across disorders [RNA-seq]

Project description:RNA sequencing was applied to examine changes in gene expression in reactive astrocytes following traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI) or neuroinflammatory insult by systemic administration of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Transgenic Ribotag technology was used to isolate astrocyte ribosome-associated mRNAs from the spinal cord of wild type mice and mice with astrocyte-specific conditional gene deletion (cKO) of test-case transcriptional regulators of reactivity, SMARCA4 (Smarca4-astro-cKO) or STAT3 knockout (Stat3-astro-cKO). Examination of differentially expressed gene (DEG) profiles by upstream transcriptional regulator enrichment analysis (TREA) was used identify transcriptional regulators of reactivity in each condition. Together, findings from this study show that transcriptional changes associated with astrocyte reactivity are exquisitely heterogeneous and are customized from vast numbers of potential DEGs via context-specific combinatorial TR interactions. These data have also been made accessible in a open-access, searchable database: http://tr.astrocytereactivity.com

In vivo analysis of astrocyte ribosome-associated mRNA after traumatic spinal cord injury

Project description:Analysis of gene expression by astrocytes or non-astrocyte cells in spinal cord injury (SCI) lesions may lead to the identification of molecules that impact on axon regrowth. We conducted genome-wide RNA sequencing of (i) immunoprecipitated astrocyte-specific ribosome-associated RNA (ramRNA) from WT or STAT3-CKO astrocytes, and (ii) the non-precipitated (flow-through) RNA deriving from non-astrocyte cells in the same tissue samples 14 days following SCI. DOI: 10.1038/nature17623 Young adult female mGFAP-Cre-RiboTag or mGFAP-Cre-RiboTag-STAT3-LoxP mice underwent severe crush SCI at thoracic level 10. 14 days following SCI, the central 3mm of the SCI lesion was extracted, homogenized and (i) astrocyte-specific ribosome-associated RNA (ramRNA) precipitated via a hemagglutinin (HA) tag targeted to either WT (n=4) or STAT3-CKO (n=3) astrocytes, and (ii) the non-precipitated (flow-through) RNA deriving from non-astrocyte cells in the same tissue samples. Sex and age-matched mGFAP-Cre-RiboTag mice served as uninjured controls (n=4).

A spatiotemporal molecular atlas of mouse spinal cord injury identifies a distinct astrocyte subpopulation and therapeutic potential of IGFBP2

Project description:Spinal cord injury (SCI) triggers a cascade of intricate molecular and cellular changes that determine the outcome. In this study, we resolve the spatiotemporal organization of the injured mouse spinal cord and quantitatively assess in situ cell-cell communication following SCI. By analyzing existing single-cell RNA-sequencing datasets alongside our spatial data, we delineate a subpopulation of Igfbp2-expressing astrocytes that migrate from the white matter (WM) to grey matter (GM) and become reactive upon SCI, termed as Astro-GMii. Further, Igfbp2 upregulation promotes astrocyte migration, proliferation and reactivity, and the secreted IGFBP2 protein fosters neurite outgrowth. Finally, we show that IGFBP2 significantly reduces neuronal loss and remarkably improves the functional recovery in a mouse model of SCI in vivo. Together, this study not only provides a comprehensive molecular atlas of SCI but also exemplifies how the rich resource can be applied to endow cells and genes with functional insight and therapeutic potential.

Heterogeneity analysis of astrocytes following spinal cord injury at single-cell resolution

Project description:Astrocytes play many important functions in response to spinal cord injury (SCI) in an activated manner, including clearance of necrotic tissue, formation of protective barrier, maintenance of microenvironment balance, interaction with immune cells, and formation of the glial scar. More and more studies have shown that the astrocytes are heterogeneous, such as inflammatory astrocyte 1 (A1) and neuroprotective astrocyte 2 (A2) types. However, the subtypes of astrocyte resulting from SCI have not been clearly defined. In this study, using single-cell RNA sequencing, we constructed the transcriptomic profile of astrocytes from uninjured spinal cord tissue and nearby the lesion epicenter at 0.5, 1, 3, 7, 14, 60, and 90 days after mouse hemisection spinal cord tissue. Our analysis uncovered six transcriptionally distinct astrocyte states, including Atp1b2+, S100a4+, Gpr84+, C3+/G0s2+, GFAP+/Tm4sf1+, and Gss+/Cryab+ astrocytes. We used these new signatures combined with canonical astrocyte markers to determine the distribution of morphological and physiologically distinct for each astrocyte population at injured sites by immunofluorescence staining. Then we identified the dynamic evolution process of each astrocyte subtype following SCI. Finally, we also revealed the evolution of highly expressed genes in these astrocyte subtypes at different phases of SCI. Together, we provided six astrocyte subtypes at single-cell resolution following SCI. These data not only contribute to understanding the heterogeneity of astrocytes during SCI but also help to find new astrocyte subtypes as a target for SCI repair.

Systematic analysis of purified astrocytes after spinal cord injury unveils lncRNA Zeb2os as a novel molecular target for astrogliosis [RNA-Seq]

Project description:Astrocytes are the predominant component of the scar and play crucial roles in spinal cord injury (SCI) at acute injury stage. Understanding the complex reactive astroglial contributions to SCI pathophysiologies is important for developing therapeutic strategies. To understand the mechanisms of astrogliosis in SCI, and to identify novel molecular targets to improve the injury environment and axonal regeneration, we have studied gene expression changes in SCI epicenter tissue using RNA-Seq at chronic stages (1 month and 3 months) in mouse moderate contusive injury models. Importantly, we have also FACS purified cells successfully from adult spinal cord using transgenic mice and generated RNA-Seq results for both acute (7 days) and chronic (1 month and 3 months) injury stages. The SCI RNA-Seq analysis provided valuable information on the gene expression in injury environment and astrocytes after SCI. In addition to protein coding genes, we were the first to systematically analyze the expression profiles of Long Noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in SCI and purified astrocytes. We have tested a number of candidates and found gene of interest Zeb2os which is a highly conserved lncRNA in human. Zeb2os expression has high correlation with an essential transcription factor (TF) in astrogliosis, Stat3, and its antisense protein coding gene Zeb2. Furthermore, our ChIP-seq experiment showed STAT3 bound to Zeb2 promoter region, thus Zeb2os may regulate Zeb2 and Stat3 directly or indirectly and STAT3 may regulate Zeb2 expression. Moreover, we have demonstrated for the first time by shRNA gene knockdown (KD) and functional assays that Zeb2os plays an important functional role in astrogliosis. We found Zeb2os KD in primary astrocytes affected a number of downstream genes by RNA-Seq, for example, Gfap, Zeb2, and Stat3 level decreased and reduced astrocyte proliferation.

Moreover, we have demonstrated for the first time by shRNA gene knockdown (KD) and functional assays that Zeb2os plays an important functional role in astrogliosis. We found Zeb2os KD in primary astrocytes affected a number of downstream genes by RNA-Seq, for example, Gfap, Zeb2, and Stat3 level decreased and reduced astrocyte proliferation.

Glial progenitor heterogeneity, key regulators and cell signaling revealed by single-cell RNA-sequencing provide insights to regeneration in spinal cord injury

Project description:Recent studies in brain and spinal cord have revealed the heterogenous nature of astrocytes; however, how diverse constituents of astrocyte lineage cells are regulated in adult spinal cord after injury and contribute to regeneration remains elusive. We performed single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) of astrocyte lineage cells from sub-chronic spinal cord injury (SCI) models, identified and compared with the subpopulations in the acute stage data. We found the subpopulations with distinct functional enrichment and their identities defined by subpopulation-specific transcription factors and regulons. Our analyses revealed the molecular signature, location and morphologies of potential residential neural progenitors or neural stem cells in the adult spinal cord before and after injury, and the intermediate cells enriched in neuronal markers that could potentially transition into other subpopulations. The investigation of stage-specific cell-cell communications among astrocyte lineage cells and with other cell types in the tissue generated valuable insight into signaling pathway networks in SCI. This study has significantly expanded the knowledge of the heterogeneity and cell state transition of glial progenitors in adult spinal cord before and after injury.
