Epigenetic dysregulation in Alzheimer s disease peripheral immunity - ATAC

ABSTRACT: The peripheral immune system in Alzheimer's disease (AD) has not been thoroughly studied with modern sequencing methods. To investigate epigenetic and transcriptional alterations to the AD peripheral immune system, we used single-cell sequencing strategies, including assay for transposase-accessible chromatin and RNA sequencing. We reveal a striking amount of open chromatin in peripheral immune cells in AD. In CD8 T cells, we uncover a cis-regulatory DNA element co-accessible with the CXC motif chemokine receptor 3 gene promoter. In monocytes, we identify a novel AD-specific RELA transcription factor binding site adjacent to an open chromatin region in the nuclear factor kappa B subunit 2 gene. We also demonstrate apolipoprotein E genotype-dependent epigenetic changes in monocytes. Surprisingly, we also identify differentially accessible chromatin regions in genes associated with sporadic AD risk. Our findings provide novel insights into the complex relationship between epigenetics and genetic risk factors in AD peripheral immunity.

Peripheral immunomodulatory effects of Apolipoprotein E4 on Alzheimer's disease - Immune Enrichment

Project description:Apolipoprotein E (APOE) is a lipid and cholesterol transport molecule known to influence Alzheimer's disease (AD) risk in an isoform-specific manner. In particular, the APOE E4 allele is the largest genetic risk factor for late-onset sporadic AD. Our recent findings uncovered activated, clonally expanded T cells in AD cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). This T cell phenotype occurred concomitantly with altered expression of APOE in CSF monocytes. Yet, whether APOE variants differentially affect peripheral immunity systems remains unknown. In this study, we performed targeted immune profiling using single-cell epigenetic and transcriptomic analysis of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC). We analyzed 55 age-matched healthy control (HC) and AD patients with equal distribution of APOE E3/E3, E3/E4, and E4/E4 genotypes. We reveal dysregulation in monocytes and clonally expanded T cells that are distinct to AD patients carrying the APOE E4/E4 genotype. Additionally, we find APOE isoform-dependent chromatin accessibility differences that correspond to RNA expression changes. Cumulatively, these results uncover APOE isoform-dependent changes to peripheral immunity in AD.

Systems-level analysis of peripheral blood gene expression in dementia patients reveals an innate immune response shared across multiple disorders [ftd]

Project description:The role of peripheral inflammation in dementia is an important but complex topic. We present here the largest cohort of peripheral blood gene expression data ever assembled from patients with dementia and matching controls. Importantly, this cohort includes individuals from a diverse set of dementia disorders, including Alzheimer’s Disease (AD), mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and multiple disorders within the frontotemporal dementia (FTD) spectrum. We found strong transcriptional evidence of an innate immune inflammatory response, mediated by monocytes and neutrophils, in AD, MCI, and two FTD subtypes, PSP and nfvPPA. This transcriptional inflammatory response is enriched for genetic risk for AD, in part because it is also enriched for microglial genes, which have previously been implicated in AD risk. Finally, we show that this transcriptional response is strongly enriched for binding of the transcription factors PU.1 and RELA, which have previously been linked to AD risk and progression.

ATAC-seq analyses with results from DG75 cells prior to and post induction of two versions of BZLF1.

Project description:The aim of the experiment was to identify accessible (open) chromatin regions in the genome prior to and post induction of EBV's BZLF1 protein. Two versions of BZLF1 were employed: full-length and activation-domain (AD)-truncated BZLF1 non-induced and induced for 15 h. The experiments were performed as triplicates.

Epigenetic and Transcriptional Dysregulation in T cells of patients with Atopic Dermatitis [WGS]

Project description:Atopic dermatitis (AD), the start of the atopic march, is one of the most common skin disorders in children. Immunologically, AD involves skin barrier defects and CD4+ T cells that localize to the skin, producing inflammatory cytokines and amplifying epidermal dysfunction. To understand the gene regulatory activity differences in peripheral blood T cells in AD, we measured chromatin accessibility (ATAC-seq), NFKB1 binding (ChIP-seq), and gene expression (RNA-seq) in stimulated CD4+ T cells from subjects with active moderate-to-severe AD and age-matched healthy, non-allergic controls. Chromatin accessibility in stimulated CD4+ T cells were highly enriched for AD genetic risk variants. The vast majority of ATAC-seq peaks were shared, consistent with those sections of chromatin being equally available between matched pairs; however, NFKB DNA binding motifs were enriched in chromatin accessible in an AD-dependent manner. NFKB1 ChIP-seq identified peaks that were stronger in AD cases, enriched in controls, or shared between cases and controls. The ChIP-seq peaks that were statistically stronger in AD were more strongly enriched for NFKB DNA binding motifs. Chromatin that was more strongly accessibe and bound by NFKB1 in AD were enriched for genetic variants that increase risk for AD. Using whole genome sequencing data, we identified wide-spread genotype-dependent chromatin accessibility and allelic NFKB1 binding at AD and allergic disease genetic risk loci.
