Insulin resistance disrupts midbrain metabolic and functional homeostasis and aggravates dopaminergic neuron loss in GBA-PD via FOXO1 overexpression [WTs]

ABSTRACT: Growing evidence indicates that Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is associated with an increased risk of developing PD Parkinson’s disease (PD) through shared disease mechanisms. Studies show that insulin resistance, which is the driving pathophysiological mechanism of T2D plays a major role in neurodegeneration by impairing neuronal functionality, metabolism, and survival. To better understand the importance of insulin signalling in the human midbrain, which is the most affected brain region in PD, we expose IPSC-derived human midbrain organoids from healthy individuals and GBA-N370S mutation-carrying PD patients to either high insulin concentrations, promoting insulin resistance, or to more physiological insulin concentrations restoring normal insulin signalling function. We are able to show that insulin resistance compromises dopaminergic neuron and dopamine levels in the midbrain organoids of healthy donors. Moreover, insulin-resistant organoids display diminished neuronal activity and reduced metabolic efficiency. Furthermore, our findings demonstrate FOXO1 role in GBA-PD phenotype severity and show the potential beneficial effects of the anti-diabetic drug Pioglitazone in GBA-PD treatment. Overall, our results highlight insulin resistance as a significant target in PD prevention and disease-modifying therapy.

Cell cycle arrest of neural progenitors causes impaired dopaminergic neuronal differentiation in GBA associated Parkinson’s disease midbrain organoids [2]

Project description:The mechanisms underlying Parkinson's disease (PD) etiology are only partially understood despite intensive research conducted in the field. Recent evidence suggests that early neurodevelopmental defects might play a role in cellular susceptibility to neurodegeneration. To study the early developmental contribution of GBA mutations in PD we used patient-derived iPSCs carrying a heterozygous N370S mutation in the GBA gene. Patient-specific midbrain organoids displayed GBA-PD relevant phenotypes such as reduction of GCase activity, autophagy impairment and mitochondrial dysfunction. Genome-scale metabolic (GEM) modeling predicted changes in lipid metabolism which were validated with lipidomics analysis, showing significant differences in the lipidome of GBA-PD. In addition, patient-specific midbrain organoids exhibited an increase in the neural progenitor population showing signs of cellular senescence. This was accompanied by a decrease in the number and complexity of dopaminergic neurons. These results provide insights into how GBA mutations may lead to neurodevelopmental defects thereby predisposing to PD pathology.

Comparative transcriptome analysis in monocyte-derived macrophages of asymptomatic GBA mutation carriers and patients with GBA-associated Parkinson’s disease

Project description:We compared transcriptome of monocyte-derived macrophages of 5 patients with GBA-PD (4 L444P/N, 1 N370S/N) and 4 asymptomatic GBA mutation carriers (GBA-carriers) (3 L444P/N, 1 N370S/N) and 4 controls. We also conducted comparative transcriptome analysis for L444P/N only GBA-PD patients and GBA-carriers. Revealed deregulated genes in GBA-PD independently of GBA mutations (L444P or N370S) were involved in immune response, neuronal function. We found upregulated pathway associated with zinc metabolism in L444P/N GBA-PD patients. The potential important role of DUSP1 in the pathogenesis of GBA-PD was suggested.

Parkinson’s disease blood biomarkers correspond to a selectively vulnerable group of dopaminergic neurons

Project description:Blood mRNA biomarker validation of the Luxembourgish PD cohort by single cell RNAseq in GBA-PD midbrain organoids identifies a PD vulnerable dopaminergic neuron subcluster, with transcriptionally overactive mitochondria that is lost upon PD. Deep phenotyping of patient derived GBA-N409S midbrain organoids confirms the altered mitochondrial activity, increased ROS and TH+ dopaminergic neuronal cell loss in PD. To identify molecular targets underlying the increased dopaminergic vulnerability in GBA-N409S midbrain organoids blood cohort mRNA and miRNA biomarkers were integrated, revealing ALDH1A1, an aldehyde dehydrogenase involved in dopamine metabolism and reactive aldehyde clearance as potential candidate gene. Moreover, cohort metabolite biomarker validation revealed retinoic acid metabolism as potential pathway involved in ALDH1A1 dependent dopaminergic susceptibility. Whereas toxin induced ALDH1A1 reduction alone was not sufficient to induce dopaminergic neuron cell death in healthy organoids retinoic acid treatment rescued GBA-N409S dopaminergic neuron loss in GBA-N409S PD.

Proteomic analysis of GBA iPSC-dopamine neurons

Project description:Heterozygous mutations in the glucocerebrosidase gene (GBA) are the strongest common genetic risk factors for Parkinson’s disease (PD) present in around 5-10% of PD patients, resulting in lower age of onset and exacerbating disease progression, including an increased risk of dementia. However, the exact mechanisms leading from dysfunction of the enzyme glucocerebrosidase (GCase) encoded by GBA to PD pathogenesis and neurodegeneration remain unclear. Applying a novel multi-part enrichment workflow we have developed, we have isolated and quantified peptides with phosphorylation, cysteine-modification or N-linked glycosylation simultaneously. We applied this methodology to iPSC-derived dopaminergic neurons from GBA-N370S PD patients and healthy age-matched controls, identifying large numbers of dysregulated native and modified proteins.

Increased SRF Transcriptional Activity is a Novel Signature of Insulin Resistance in Humans and Mice

Project description:Insulin resistance in skeletal muscle is a key phenotype associated with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and is even present in offspring of diabetic parents. However, molecular mediators of insulin resistance remain unclear. We find that the top-ranking gene set in expression analysis of muscle from humans with T2D and normoglycemic insulin resistant subjects with parental family history (FH+) of T2D is increased expression of actin cytoskeleton genes regulated by serum response factor (SRF) and its coactivator MKL1. Furthermore, the SRF activator STARS is upregulated in FH+ and T2D and inversely correlated with insulin sensitivity. These patterns are recapitulated in insulin resistant mice, and linked to alterations in two other regulators of this pathway: reduced G-actin and increased nuclear localization of MKL1. Both genetic and pharmacologic manipulation of STARS/MKL1/SRF pathway significantly alter insulin action: 1) Overexpression of MKL1 or reduction in G-actin decreased insulin-stimulated Akt phosphorylation; 2) reduced STARS expression increased insulin signalling and glucose uptake, and 3) SRF inhibition by CCG-1423 reduced nuclear MKL1, improved glucose uptake, and improved glucose tolerance in insulin resistant mice in vivo. Thus, SRF pathway alterations are a signature of insulin resistance which may also contribute to T2D pathogenesis and be a novel therapeutic target. Skeletal muscle samples were obtained from 10 subjects with type 2 diabetes, 25 subjects with a family history of type 2 diabetes (one or both parents), and 15 subjects with no family history of type 2 diabetes. In this analysis RNA was isolated for cRNA preparation and hybridized to Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 microarrays.
