Profile of N6-methyladenosine of Pb-exposed neurons presents epitranscriptomic alterations in Pi3K-AKT pathway-associated genes

ABSTRACT: Lead (Pb) is a pervasive heavy metal with multi-organ toxicity. However, the molecular mechanisms of Pb-induced neurotoxicity are not fully understood. The dynamics of N6-methylademine (m6A) is an emerging regulatory mechanism for gene expression, which is closely related to nervous system diseases. To elucidate the association between m6A modification and Pb-mediated neurotoxicity, primary hippocampal neurons exposed to 5 μM Pb for 48 h were used as the paradigm neurotoxic model in this study. According to the results, Pb exposure reprogrammed the transcription spectrum. Simultaneously, Pb exposure remodeled the transcriptome-wide distribution of m6A while disrupting the overall level of m6A in cellular transcripts. United analysis of MeRIP-Seq and RNA-Seq was applied to further identify the core genes whose expression levels are regulated by m6A in the process of lead-induced nerve injury. GO and KEGG analysis unveiled that the modified transcripts were overrepresented by the PI3K-AKT pathway. Mechanically, we elucidated the regulatory role of the methyltransferase like3 (METTL3) in the process of lead-induced neurotoxicity and the downregulation of the PI3K-AKT pathway. In conclusion, our novel findings shed new light on the functional roles of m6A modification in the expressional alternations of downstream transcripts caused by lead, providing an innovative molecular basis to explain Pb neurotoxicity.

Hypoxic stabilization of RIPOR3 mRNA via METTL3-mediated m6A RNA methylation drives breast tumor growth and metastasis [m6A-seq-sgControl and sgMETTL3]

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification is the most abundant internal mRNA modification in eukaryotes. Hypoxia induces reprogramming of m6A epitranscriptome, but the detail underlying regulator mechanism remains elusive in breast cancer. Here we reported that hypoxia induced elevated m6A modification involved in tumor progression. m6A- sequencing (m6A-seq) combined with RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) identified RIPOR3 as a key target gene of m6A modification under hypoxic stress. Hypoxia-induced increased of RIPOR3 m6A levels promoted its mRNA stability and expression, thereby facilitating the progression and metastasis of breast cancer. Besides, RIPOR3 was overexpressed in breast cancer cells and breast tumor tissues, and elevation of RIPOR3 expression was associated with poor prognosis. Mechanistically, RIPOR3 bound to EGFR and the interaction was enhanced under hypoxia, promoting the activation of the EGFR downstream PI3K-AKT signaling pathway. Altogether, our studies reveal that RIPOR3 responds to hypoxic stress to promote EGFR-PI3K-AKT signal pathway, facilitating breast cancer progression and metastasis, thus presenting itself as a potential therapeutic target.

Lead exposure induced transgenerational developmental neurotoxicity by altering genome methylation in Drosophila

Project description:Heavy metal toxicity is a worldwide health problem. Lead exposure is of particular concern due to the adverse effects of low concentrations on cognitive development in children. Although the mechanism of lead neurotoxicity has been well studied, the analysis and molecular mechanism of the transgenerational effects of lead exposure-induced neurotoxicity are lacking. To address this, Drosophila, a powerful developmental animal model, was exposed to lead acetate. We found that Pb exposure during the developmental stage affected the neurodevelopment of F0 fruit flies, resulting in a loss of the correlation between the motor terminal area and muscle fiber area and the increased frequency of β-lobe midline crossing phenotype in Mushroom bodies. We also found that Pb exposure led to an increase in BRP expression, suggesting an increase in synaptic vesicle release sites and a decrease in synaptic vesicle protein SYN expression in F0 generation. This explained the results of our electrophysiological data that Pb exposure led to an increase in the amplitude of evoked excitatory junctional potential (EJP) and an increase in the frequency of spontaneous excitatory junctional potential (mEJP). Our results further confirmed that the developmental neurotoxicity of parental Pb exposure has a transgenerational effect. Neurodevelopmental defects, abnormalities in synaptic function, and repetitive behavior also were observed in the F3 offspring of F0 exposed to lead. Our Medip-seq analysis showed that Pb exposure altered the DNA methylation levels of many neurodevelopmentally associated genes (eg, hppy, nrg, baz, and spn) in the F3 offspring of the F0 generation with Pb exposure. Our findings suggest that epigenetic mechanisms may underlie the transgenerational inheritance of acquired phenotypic traits resulting from exposure to environmental factors.

N6-methyladenosine modification is not a general trait of positive-sense RNA viral genomes

Project description:<p>Despite the nuclear localization of the m6A machinery, the genomes of multiple exclusively-cytoplasmic RNA viruses, such as chikungunya (CHIKV) and dengue (DENV), are reported to be extensively m6A-modified. However, these findings are mostly based on m6A-seq, an antibody-dependent technique with a high rate of false positives. Here, we addressed the presence of m6A in CHIKV and DENV RNAs. For this, we combined m6A-seq and the antibody-independent SELECT and nanopore direct RNA sequencing techniques with functional, molecular, and mutagenesis studies. Following this comprehensive analysis, we found no evidence of m6A modification in CHIKV or DENV transcripts. Furthermore, depletion of key components of the host m6A machinery did not affect CHIKV or DENV infection. Moreover, CHIKV or DENV infection had no effect on the m6A machinery’s localization. Our results challenge the prevailing notion that m6A modification is a general feature of cytoplasmic RNA viruses and underscore the importance of validating RNA modifications with orthogonal approaches.</p>

m6A RNA modification controls cell fate transition in mammalian embryonic stem cells

Project description:N6-methyl-adenosine (m6A) is the most abundant modification on messenger RNAs and is linked to human diseases, but its functions in mammalian development are poorly understood. Here we reveal the evolutionary conservation and function of m6A by mapping the m6A methylome in mouse and human embryonic stem cells. Thousands of messenger and long noncoding RNAs show conserved m6A modification, including transcripts encoding core pluripotency transcription factors. m6A is enriched over 3M-bM-^@M-^Y untranslated regions at defined sequence motifs, and marks unstable transcripts, including transcripts turned over upon differentiation. Genetic inactivation or depletion of mouse and human Mettl3, one of the m6A methylases, led to m6A erasure on select target genes, prolonged Nanog expression upon differentiation, and impaired ESCM-bM-^@M-^Ys exit from self-renewal towards differentiation into several lineages in vitro and in vivo. Thus, m6A is a mark of transcriptome flexibility required for stem cells to differentiate to specific lineages. Examing m6A modification differences in two different cell types

Comprehensive analysis and functional characteristics of differential expression of N6-methyladenosine methylation modification in the whole transcriptome of rheumatoid arthritis

Project description:High-throughput sequencing combined with methylated RNA immunoprecipitation (MeRIP-seq) and RNA sequencing were used to assess whole-transcriptome m6A modifications in the synovium of patients with RA. The relationship between m6A-modified target genes and RA inflammation and macrophages was determined. The expression of the m6A-modified significant transcript-enriched inflammatory signaling pathway was assessed through animal experiments.Differentially expressed m6A genes were correlated with macrophage activation involved in immune response, vascular endothelium, MAPK signaling pathway, PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, and other inflammatory processes. Furthermore, combined analysis with m6A-seq and RNA-seq revealed 120 genes with significant changes in both m6A modification and mRNA expression.

Altered m6A Modification of Specific Cellular Transcripts Affects Flaviviridae Infection

Project description:The RNA modification N6-methyladenosine (m6A) can modulate mRNA fate and thus affect many biological processes. We analyzed m6A modification across the transcriptome following infection by dengue virus (DENV), Zika virus (ZIKV), West Nile virus (WNV), and hepatitis C virus (HCV). We found that infection by these viruses in the Flaviviridae family alters m6A modification of specific cellular transcripts, including RIOK3 and CIRBP. During viral infection, the addition of m6A to RIOK3 promotes its translation, while loss of m6A in CIRBP promotes alternative splicing. Importantly, we found that viral activation of innate immune sensing or the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress response contributes to the changes in m6A modification in RIOK3 and CIRBP, respectively. Further, several transcripts with infection-altered m6A profiles, including RIOK3 and CIRBP, encode proteins that influence DENV, ZIKV, and HCV infection. Overall, this work reveals that cellular signaling pathways activated during viral infection lead to alterations in m6A modification of host mRNAs to regulate infection.

N6-methyladenosine Modulates Messenger RNA Translation Efficiency

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most abundant internal messenger (mRNA) modification in mammalian mRNA. This modification is reversible and non-stoichiometric, which potentially adds an additional layer of variety and dynamic control of mRNA metabolism. The m6A-modified mRNA can be selectively recognized by the YTH family “reader” proteins. The preferential binding of m6A-containing mRNA by YTHDF2 is known to reduce the stability of the target transcripts; however, the exact effects of m6A on translation has yet to be elucidated. Here we show that another m6A reader protein, YTHDF1, promotes ribosome loading of its target transcripts. YTHDF1 forms a complex with translation initiation factors to elevate the translation efficiency of its bound mRNA. In a unified mechanism of translation control through m6A, the YTHDF2-mediated decay controls the lifetime of target transcripts; whereas, the YTHDF1-based translation promotion increases the translation efficiency to ensure effective protein production from relatively short-lived transcripts that are marked by m6A. PAR-CLIP and RIP was used to identify YTHDF1 binding sites followed by ribosome profling and RNA seq to assess the consequences of YTHDF1 siRNA knock-down
