Identifying the binding sites for miRSome on miR-9 genomic locus with ChIP-seq

ABSTRACT: Recent studies have attributed multiple etiological factors for NDDs. miR-9/29a/107 is a key regulator in NDD. Therefore, understanding the upstream regulation of miR-9/29a/107 is critical for NDDs. We have used a unique multi-animal model-CC line that gives greater genetic diversity because miR upstream regulators could involve single or multiple factors. Using mirQTL mapping of CC we identified three candidates-Panx2/Polr1c/Mgea5. We showed that they modulate neuronal differentiation through miR-9. Next, we determined by ChIP that these genes are recruited to the regulatory region of the miR-9 locus. We showed that Panx2 is cleaved by RIP and translocated to the nucleus to interact with Polr1c and Mgea5. ChIP-combined-loop and 3C assays established the interaction on the miR-9 genomic locus through chromatin loops and histone modifications. We also proved that Panx2/Polr1c/Mgea5-miR-9 crosstalk to alter neuronal differentiation. Overall, we established a miRSome complex that govern transcriptional events during adult hippocampal neurogenesis.

miR-29a/b1 regulates the pituitary gland luteinizing hormone secretion and affects mouse ovulation

Project description:miR-29a/b1 was reported to be involved in the regulation of reproductive function in female mice, but the underlying molecular mechanisms were not clear. In this study, female mice lacking miR-29a/b1 showed a delay in vaginal opening, irregular estrus cycles, ovulation disorder and infertility. However, the development of egg was normal in mutant mice and the ovulation disorder could be rescued by the superovulation treatment. The plasma level of luteinizing hormone (LH) was significantly lower in the mutant mice. Using iTRAQ coupled with LC-MS/MS, we found that the deficiency of miR-29a/b1 in mice resulted in an abnormal expression of a number of proteins involved in vesicular transport and secretion in the pituitary gland. The miR-29a/b1 targeting gene Dnmt3a and Hdac4 were up-regulated in the pituitary of miR-29a/b1 knockout mice suggesting that these two epigenetic writers may be the upstream causes for these phenotype changes due to miR-29a/b1 deficiency. These findings demonstrated that miR-29a/b1 is indispensable for the function of the reproductive axis through regulating LH secretion in the pituitary gland.

Effect of influenza A virus infection during pregnancy on the developing fetal brain

Project description:Epidemiological studies link NDDs with exposure to maternal viral infection in utero. As the immature brain is vulnerable to insult, it is thought that prenatal inflammation alters neurodevelopmental trajectories, leading to NDD pathologies. Using a biologically relevant mouse model of live influenza (flu) infection during pregnancy, we aim to determine if gestational flu infection triggers detrimental maternal cell signaling that leads to NDD-relevant pathologies in offspring. Overall, this work will improve translation to the clinic and will build a foundation for developing targeted therapeutics for NDDs that can be delivered during gestation.

MiR-29 coordinates age-dependent plasticity brakes in the adult visual cortex

Project description:Visual cortical circuits show profound plasticity during early life and are later stabilized by molecular "brakes" limiting excessive circuit rewiring beyond a critical period. How the appearance of these factors is coordinated during the transition from development to adulthood remains unknown. We analyzed the role of miR-29a, a miRNA targeting factors involved in several important pathways for plasticity such as extracellular matrix and chromatin regulation. We found that visual cortical miR-29a expression in the visual cortex dramatically increases with age, but it is not experience-dependent. Precocious high levels of miR-29a induced by targeted intracortical injections of a miR-29a mimic blocked ocular dominance plasticity and caused an early appearance of perineuronal nets. Conversely, inhibition of miR-29a in adult mice using LNA antagomirs activated ocular dominance plasticity, reduced perineuronal net intensity and number, and changed their chemical composition restoring permissive low chondroitin 4-O-sulfation levels characteristic of juvenile mice. Activated adult plasticity had the typical functional and proteomic signature of juvenile plasticity. Transcriptomic and proteomic studies indicated that miR-29a manipulation regulates the expression of plasticity factors acting at different cellular levels, from chromatin regulation to synaptic organization and extracellular matrix remodeling. Intriguingly, the projection of miR-29a regulated gene dataset onto cell-specific transcriptomes revealed that parvalbumin-positive interneurons and oligodendrocytes were the most affected cells. Overall, miR29a is a master regulator of the age-dependent plasticity brakes promoting stability of visual cortical circuits.

An FGF-2 signaling pathway that is activated in aged skeletal muscle promotes intramuscular adipogenesis

Project description:Aged skeletal muscle is markedly affected by fatty muscle infiltration and strategies to reduce the occurrence of adipocytes within skeletal muscle, the intramuscular adipose tissue (IMAT), are urgently needed. Fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) is a critical growth factor for muscle tissue. Here, we show that FGF-2 not only stimulates muscle growth, but also promotes intramuscular adipogenesis. Using multiple screening assays for upstream and downstream signaling of microRNA (miR)-29a we located the secreted protein and adipogenic inhibitor SPARC to an FGF-2 signaling pathway that is conserved between skeletal muscle cells from mice and humans and that is activated in skeletal muscle from aged mice. FGF-2 induces the miR-29a/SPARC axis through transcriptional activation of FRA-1 which binds and activates an evolutionary conserved AP-1 site element proximal in the miR-29a promoter. Genetic deletions in muscle cells and AAV-mediated overexpression of FGF-2 or SPARC in mouse skeletal muscle revealed that this axis regulates differentiation of fibro/adipogenic progenitors in vitro and intramuscular fat formation in vivo. Thus, our data highlight an ambivalent role of FGF-2 for adult skeletal muscle and reveal a novel pathway to combat fat accumulation in aged skeletal muscle.

Genome-wide CRISPRi/a screens in human neurons link lipid imbalance to ferroptosis

Project description:Neurons are unique among all human cell types in their high energy demand, long lifespans and rich lipid contents. As such, neurons exhibit unique vulnerability to oxidative stress caused by redox imbalance in aging and neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs). To systematically identify regulators of neuronal survival under oxidative stress and regulators of neuronal redox homeostasis, we conducted multiple survival- and FACS-based genome-wide screens in human iPSC-derived neurons, using our functional genomics toolkit including a previously established CRISPRi approach and a newly developed CRISPRa approach. So far, these are the first genome-wide screens in human neurons. Our results revealed that inhibiting glycosphingolipids (GSLs) degradation by depletion of prosaposin (PSAP) drives the formation of lipofuscins in neurons which leads to iron accumulation and strongly induces ROS production that oxidizing lipids and leads to neuronal ferroptosis under oxidative stress. We also conducted single cell CROP-seq screens that revealed transcriptomic signatures of NDD-associated genes. These datasets are freely available through our open-access database CRISPRbrain.

SETD5 haploinsufficiency affects mitochondrial compartment in neural cells

Project description:Neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) are heterogeneous conditions due to alterations of a variety of molecular mechanisms and cell dysfunctions. Epigenetic basis of NDDs have been reported in an increasingly number of cases while mitochondrial dysfunctions are more common within NDD patients than in the general population. Here, we investigated experimental models of Setd5 haploinsufficiency, that leads to NDDs in humans due to chromatin defects, and uncovered that mitochondrial dysfunction participates in the pathogenesis. Mitochondrial impairment is facilitated by transcriptional aberrations that follow the decrease of SETD5 enzyme. Low levels of SETD5 resulted in fragmented mitochondria, less mitochondrial potential and ATP production both in neural precursors and neurons. Mitochondria were miss-localized in mutant neurons, with few organelles within neurites and synapses. Our study explores the epigenetics/mitochondria interplay as an important aspect of NDD pathophysiology and defines the impairments of mitochondrial functionality and dynamics as new therapeutic targets for disorders associated with loss of SETD5.

NSD1 deposits Histone H3 lysine 36 dimethylation to pattern non-CG DNA methylation in neurons [RNA-seq]

Project description:During postnatal development the DNA methyltransferase DNMT3A deposits high levels of nonCG cytosine methylation in neurons. This unique methylation is critical for transcriptional regulation in the mature mammalian brain, and loss of this mark is implicated in DNMT3Aassociated neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs). The mechanisms determining genomic nonCG methylation profiles are not well defined however, and it is unknown if this pathway is disrupted in additional NDDs. Here we show that genome topology and gene-expression converge to shape Histone H3 lysine 36 dimethylation (H3K36me2) profiles, which in turn recruit DNMT3A and pattern neuronal non-CG methylation. Brain-specific deletion of NSD1, the H3K36 methyltransferase mutated in the NDD Sotos syndrome, disrupts megabase-scale H3K36me2 patterns, causing alterations in non-CG methylation and transcription that overlap models of DNMT3A disorders. Our findings indicate that H3K36me2 deposited by NSD1 is an important determinant of neuronal non-CG DNA methylation and implicates disruption of this methylation in Sotos syndrome.
