Reduced LYNX1 and epilepsy phenotype-related changes in transcriptome of human iPSC-derived neural progenitors modeling fragile X syndrome


ABSTRACT: Transcriptome analysis of RNA samples collected from human control and FXS iPS cell-derived neural progenitors at day 1 and day 7 of differentiation Lack of fragile X mental retardation protein results in fragile X syndrome (FXS), which is the most common inherited intellectual disability syndrome and serves as an excellent model disease to study molecular mechanisms behind neuropsychiatric comorbidities. We compared the transcriptomes of human neural progenitors (NPCs) generated from patient-derived induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) of three FXS and three control male donors. Altered expression of RAD51C, PPIL3, GUCY1A2, MYD88, TRAPPC4, LYNX1, and GTF2A1L in FXS NPCs suggested changes related to triplet repeat instability, RNA splicing, testes development, and pathways previously shown to be affected in FXS. LYNX1 is a cholinergic break of tissue plasminogen activator (tPA)-dependent plasticity, and its reduced expression was consistent with augmented tPA-dependent radial glial process growth in NPCs derived from FXS iPSC lines. An analysis of gene expression in LYNX1-related signaling pathways revealed that NPCs derived from an FXS male with concomitant epilepsy differed from the other FXS NPCs. The differently expressed genes comprised several epilepsy-related genes, including genes shown to cause the auditory epilepsy phenotype in the murine model of FXS. Functional enrichment analysis highlighted regulation of insulin-like growth factor pathway in human NPCs modeling FXS with epilepsy. Our results link early gene expression changes of FXS NPCs with the pathogenesis of FXS and comorbid epilepsy.
