Sexually Dimorphic Alterations in the Transcriptome and Behavior with Loss of Histone Demethylase KDM5C

ABSTRACT: Chromatin dysregulation has emerged as a major hallmark of neurodevelopmental disorders such as intellectual disability (ID) and autism spectrum disorders (ASD). The prevalence of ID and ASD is higher in males compared to females, with un-known mechanisms. Intellectual developmental disorder, X-linked syndromic, Claes-Jensen type (MRXSCJ), is caused by loss-of-function mutations of lysine de-methylase 5C (KDM5C), a histone H3K4 demethylase gene. KDM5C escapes X-inactivation, thereby presenting at a higher level in females. Initially, MRXSCJ was exclusively reported in males, while it is increasingly evident that females with heterozygous KDM5C mutations can show cognitive deficits. The mouse model of MRXSCJ, male Kdm5c-hemizygous knockout animals, recapitulates key features of human male patients. However, the behavioral and molecular traits of Kdm5c-heterozygous female mice remain incompletely characterized. Here, we re-port that gene expression and behavioral abnormalities are readily detectable in Kdm5c-heterozygous female mice, demonstrating the requirement for a higher KDM5C dose in females. Furthermore, we found both shared and sex-specific con-sequences of a reduced KDM5C dose in social behavior, gene expression, and ge-netic interaction with the counteracting enzyme KMT2A. These observations pro-vide an essential insight into the sex-biased manifestation of neurodevelopmental disorders and sex chromosome evolution.

Elp2 mutations perturb the epitranscriptome and lead to a complex neurodevelopmental phenotype

Project description:Neurodevelopmental disorders have a variety of aetiologies and most often these are complex genomic traits involving numerous mutations. Intellectual disability (ID) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are the most common neurodevelopmental disorders and are characterized by substantial impairment in intellectual and adaptive functioning, with their genetic and molecular basis remaining largely unknown. Here, we identified biallelic variants in the gene encoding one of the Elongator complex subunits, ELP2, in patients with ID and ASD. Modelling the variants in mice recapitulated the patient features, with brain imaging and tractography analysis revealing microcephaly, loss of white matter tract integrity and an aberrant functional connectome. We show that the Elp2 mutations negatively impact the activity of the complex and its function in translation via tRNA modification. Further, we elucidate that the mutations perturb protein homeostasis by reducing expression of the genes that guide cell cycle and translation, and up-regulating protein degradation in neurons and oligodendroglia. This leads to impaired neurogenesis, myelin loss and neurodegeneration. Collectively, our data demonstrate an unexpected role for tRNA modification in the pathogenesis of monogenic ID and ASD and defines Elp2 as a key regulator of brain development.

Transcriptome analysis of Dyrk1a-knockin (Ile48LysfsX2) and wild-type mice age of P21 and P60

Project description:Dyrk1A deficiency is linked to various neurodevelopmental disorders, including developmental delays, intellectual disability (ID) and autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Haploinsufficiency of Dyrk1a in mice reportedly leads to ASD-related phenotypes. However, the key pathological mechanisms remain unclear and human DYRK1A mutations remain uncharacterized in mice. Here, we generated and studied Dyrk1a-knockin mice carrying a human ASD patient mutation (Ile48LysfsX2; Dyrk1a-I48K mice). These mice display severe microcephaly, social and cognitive deficits, dendritic shrinkage, excitatory synaptic deficits, and altered phospho-proteomic patterns enriched for multiple signaling pathways and synaptic proteins.

De novo TLK1 and MDM1 mutations in a patient with a neurodevelopmental disorder and immunodeficiency

Project description:The Tousled-like kinases 1 and 2 (TLK1/TLK2) regulate DNA replication, repair and chromatin maintenance. TLK2 variants are associated with ‘Intellectual Disability, Autosomal Dominant 57’ (MRD57), a neurodevelopmental disorder (NDD) characterized by intellectual disability (ID), autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and microcephaly. Several TLK1 variants have been reported in NDDs but their functional significance is unknown. A male patient presenting with ID, seizures, global developmental delay, hypothyroidism, and primary immunodeficiency was determined to have a novel, heterozygous variant in TLK1 (c.1435C>G, p.Q479E) by genome sequencing (GS). Transcriptome sequencing in patient-derived cells confirmed expression of TLK1 transcripts carrying the p.Q479E variant and revealed alterations in genes involved in class switch recombination and cytokine signaling.

Wnt/β-catenin pathway and cell adhesion deregulation in CSDE1-related intellectual disability and autism spectrum disorders

Project description:Based on a transcriptomic and functional approach, we performed ex-vivo studies on fibroblasts originated from a patient with Intellectual Disability and Autism Spectrum Disorders (ID-ASD) carrying a nonsense de novo mutation in CSDE1. The aim is to decipher the CSDE1-dependent biological pathways involved in the pathophysiology of ID-ASD. We identified the Wnt/β-catenin pathway and cell adhesion as two deregulated cellular pathways deregulated in the ID-ASD patient.

A male patient presenting with ID, seizures, global developmental delay, hypothyroidism, and primary immunodeficiency was determined to have a heterozygous TLK1 variant (c.1435C>G, p.Q479E), as well as a mutation in MDM1 (c.1197dupT, p.K400*). Cells expressing TLK1 p.Q479E exhibited reduced cytokine responses and elevated DNA damage, but not increased radiation sensitivity or DNA repair defects. The TLK1 p.Q479E variant impaired kinase activity but not proximal protein interactions.

Transcriptomic signatures of risk genes implicated in psychiatric disorders during neuronal differentiation

Project description:Susceptibility genes for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Fragile X Syndrome (FXS), monogenetic disorders with intellectual disabilities (ID) or schizophrenia (SCZ) converge on processes related to neuronal function and differentiation. Furthermore, ASD risk genes are enriched for FMRP (Fragile X Mental Retardation Protein) targets and for genes implicated in ID. In addition, a significant co-heritability was observed between ASD and SCZ. The genetic overlap between ASD, FXS, ID and SCZ together with the symptomatic differences gives rise to the question if pathomechanisms impair the same or different regulatory patterns activated during neuronal differentiation (ND). To test this idea, we performed transcriptome analysis of in-vitro differentiation of the neuroblastoma cell line model SH-SY5Y and identified genes that were differentially expressed, dynamically regulated, and coordinately expressed. The identified genetic modules activated during ND are enriched for genetic risk factors for these four disorders. Although risk genes for the disorders significantly overlap, we observed disorder specific enrichments: ASD or FXS implicated genes were likely to be positive regulators of ND whereas ID implicated genes were related to negative regulation. ASD and SCZ genes were specifically enriched among cholesterol and fatty acid associated modules. ID genes were overrepresented among cell cycle modules. In addition, we show that ASD genes are likely to be hub genes. We hypothesize that knowledge about genetic variants of an individual combined with network and pathway context of the related genes will allow differentiating between psychiatric disorders. 21 samples, consisting of 3 replicates harvested at 7 different time-points of RA+BDNF-induced neuronal differentiation

Loss of histone methyltransferase ASH1L in the developing mouse brain causes autistic-like behaviors

Project description:Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disease associated with various gene mutations. Recent genetic and clinical studies report that mutations of the epigenetic gene ASH1L are highly associated with human ASD and intellectual disability (ID). However, the causality and underlying molecular mechanisms linking ASH1L mutations to genesis of ASD/ID remains undetermined. Here we show loss of ASH1L in the developing mouse brain is sufficient to cause multiple developmental defects, core autistic-like behaviors, and impaired cognitive memory. Gene expression analyses uncover critical roles of ASH1L in regulating gene expression during neural cell development. Thus, our study establishes a new ASD/ID mouse model revealing the critical function of an epigenetic factor ASH1L in normal brain development, a causality between Ash1L mutations and ASD/ID-like behaviors in mice, and potential molecular mechanisms linking Ash1L mutations to brain functional abnormalities.

Comorbidities - microcephaly, facial dysmorphia and epilepsy - increase the risk of the pathogenic CNV finding in patients with intellectual disability and autism

Project description:CNV are known to be a frequent cause of the autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and intellectual disabilities (ID). However, the clinical heterogeneity of both disorders causes the diagnostic efficacy of CNV analysis to be modest. We conclude that comorbidities such as microcephaly, facial dysmorphia and epilepsy increase the risk of the pathogenic CNV finding in patients with ID and ASD. However, the significance of these comorbidities differs between both groups and shows dependency on whether the patients were primarily classified as ID or ASD. We suggest that stratification of the patients according to their comorbidities before testing can increase the yield of the detection rate of pathogenic CNV in both groups. The likelihood of pathogenic CNV detection in ASD patients without any comorbidities is low. Therefore, the effectivity of CNV analysis in these cases is modest

Impaired KDM2B-mediated PRC1 recruitment to chromatin causes defective neural stem cell self-renewal and ASD/ID-like behaviors [RNA-Seq]

Project description:Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and intellectual disability (ID) are neurodevelopmental diseases associated with various genetic mutations. Recent clinical studies report that chromosomal 12q24.31 microdeletions are associated with human ASD/ID. However, the causality and underlying mechanisms linking 12q24.31 microdeletions to ASD/ID pathogenesis remain undetermined. Here we show Kdm2b, one of the genes located in chromosomal 12q24.31, plays a critical role in maintaining neural stem cells (NSCs) in the developing mouse brain. Loss of the CxxC-ZF domain of KDM2B impairs its function in recruiting Polycomb repressive complex 1 (PRC1) to chromatin, resulting in de-repression of genes involved in cell apoptosis, cell cycle arrest, NSC premature senescence, and leading to the loss of NSC populations in the brain. Importantly, the Kdm2b mutation is sufficient to induce ASD/ID-like social and memory deficits in adult mice. Thus, our study reveals a critical role of an epigenetic factor KDM2B in normal brain development, a causality between the Kdm2b mutation and genesis of ASD/ID-like phenotypes in mice, and potential molecular mechanisms linking the function of KDM2B-PRC1 in transcriptional regulation and NSC self-renewal to the12q24.31 microdeletion-associated ASD/ID.
