Multisensory gamma stimulation mitigates the effects of demyelination induced by cuprizone in male mice

ABSTRACT: Demyelination is characterized by the loss of the myelin sheath that surrounds nerve fibers and myelin-supporting cells in the nervous system. This leads to increased vulnerability of axons to damage, resulting in significant atrophy and neuro-axonal degeneration. Demyelination is a common pathological feature in a wide range of diseases of the central nervous system (CNS). Multiple pathomolecular processes contribute to brain damage, including demyelination, neuroinflammation, oligodendrocyte (OLs) cell death, and progressive neuronal dysfunction. In this study, we used the cuprizone (CPZ) mouse model to investigate long-term non-invasive gamma entrainment using sensory stimulation (GENUS) as a potential therapeutic intervention for promoting myelination and reducing neuroinflammation. Our results demonstrate that GENUS effectively mitigated demyelination, stimulated oligodendrogenesis in the corpus callosum (CC), and preserved functional integrity and synaptic plasticity. Additionally, GENUS attenuated OLs ferroptosis-induced cell death. Furthermore, chronic GENUS exhibited a marked reduction in brain inflammation, decreasing both microgliosis and astrogliosis and proinflammatory molecules, such as high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), complement component 1q (C1q) and complement C3 (C3). Considering the pro-remyelination and anti-neuroinflammatory effects observed with GENUS, these findings suggest its potential as a therapeutic approach for demyelinating disorders.

MicroRNA expression in the cuprizone-induced demyelination mouse model

Project description:Myelin abnormalities, oligodendrocyte damage, and concomitant glia activation are common in demyelinating diseases of the central nervous system (CNS). The neurotoxicant cuprizone (CPZ) has been extensively used to create a mouse model of demyelination. However, the changes of miRNA expression and effects on behavior of cuprizone treatment have not been clearly reported. We have analyzed the behavioral changes of mice given a diet containing 0.2% cuprizone for 6 weeks. To evaluate the changes of miRNA expression in CPZ-induced demyelination compared with control, we performed the Affymetrix GeneChip® miRNA 4.0 Array. We identified 1348 and 1253 differentially expressed miRNAs for control and CPZ-treated mice, respectively. Furthermore, the expression of 240 miRNAs was significantly changed in CPZ-induced mice comparing with control mice. These results suggest that the changes of miRNA expression in vivo may provide a new potential remyelination therapeutic target.

Gene expression profiles from corpus callosum brain tissue obtained from cuprizone-treated mice

Project description:Mouse cuprizone (CPZ ) model of experimental de- and remyelination was applied to mimic demyelination pathology of multiple sclerosis. The aim of the study was to profile whole genome expression to identify differentially expressed genes during the demyelinisation and after discontinuation of cuprizon treatment, during rapid remyelinisation in affected areas of mouse corpus callosum. Control mice were kept on a normal diet. The following groups representing de- and remyelinisation pathology in corpus callosum of CPZ-treated mice were compared: Partial demyelination: 2weeks CPZ (dem_2w); Complete demyelination: 4weeks CPZ (dem_4w); Remyelination: 4weeks CPZ + UNTREATED (rem); and UNTREATED control (C). The experiments were performed using 3-4 animals per groups.

MicroRNA profiling of demyelination and remyelination areas in corpus callosum of cuprizone-treated mice

Project description:Mouse cuprizone (CPZ ) model of experimental de- and remyelination was applied to mimic demyelination pathology of multiple sclerosis. In order to identify differentially expressed microRNAs involved in de- and remyelination, the affected areas of corpus callosum were isolated from mice exposed to CPZ and conducted an Agilent microarray analysis. To induce demyelination, CPZ was administrated for four weeks. Spontaneous remyelination occurs as mice returned to the regular diet after four weeks feeding with CPZ (DEM_4w). Remyelination was examined at two time points: acute remyelination induced by four weeks CPZ feeding followed by two days of regular diet (two days remyelination: REM_2d), and full remyelination induced by four weeks CPZ feeding followed by two weeks of regular diet (two weeks remyelination: REM_2w). Control mice (C) were kept on a normal diet. The following groups representing de- and remyelinisation pathology in corpus callosum of CPZ-treated mice were compared: Demyelination: 4weeks CPZ: DEM_4w; Acute remyelination: 4 weeks CPZ +2 days UNTREATED: REM_2d; Full remyelination: 4 weeks CPZ +2 weeks UNTREATED: REM_2w; and UNTREATED control (C). The experiments were performed using 2-4 animals per groups.

Interactome of P21 Activated Kinase 1 (PAK1) in oligodendrocytes

Project description:In the central nervous system (CNS), myelin formation by oligodendrocytes (OLs) relies on actin dynamics. Actin polymerization supports the ensheathment step, when the OL process contacts and surrounds a selected portion of axon. While a drastic shift to actin depolymerization is then required to enable the wrapping process and the formation of a multilayered myelin sheath. Molecular mechanisms regulating this switch to actin depolymerization are not fully elucidated. P21-activated kinase 1 (PAK1), a downstream effector of Rho GTPases Rac1 and Cdc42, highly expressed in OLs, can regulate actin dynamics through its kinase activity. We found that PAK1 loss-of-function in OLs, in vivo, stimulates the wrapping and the thickening of myelin sheaths. We showed that PAK1 is highly expressed in myelinating OLs, yet in its inactive form, the one with the ability to trigger actin disassembly. Interestingly, we found that modulations of PAK1 kinase activity control actin dynamics in OLs, thereby myelin formation. Our data demonstrate that PAK1 inactivation in OLs is required for actin depolymerization and proper myelin formation, suggesting the presence of an endogenous PAK1 inhibitor in myelinating OLs. Proteomic analysis of PAK1 binding partners enabled us to identify several proteins likely to regulate its activity.

TREM2 regulates microglial cell activation in response to demyelination in vivo

Project description:Microglia are phagocytic cells that survey the brain and perform neuroprotective functions in response to tissue damage, but their activating receptors are largely unknown. Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (TREM2) is a microglial immunoreceptor whose loss-of-function mutations in humans cause presenile dementia, while genetic variants are associated with increased risk of neurodegenerative diseases. In myeloid cells, TREM2 has been involved in the regulation of phagocytosis, cell proliferation and inflammatory responses in vitro. However, it is unknown how TREM2 contributes to microglia function in vivo. Here, we identify a critical role for TREM2 in the activation and function of microglia during cuprizone (CPZ)-induced demyelination. TREM2-deficient (TREM2(-/-)) mice had defective clearance of myelin debris and more axonal pathology, resulting in impaired clinical performances compared to wild-type (WT) mice. TREM2(-/-) microglia proliferated less in areas of demyelination and were less activated, displaying a more resting morphology and decreased expression of the activation markers MHC II and inducible nitric oxide synthase as compared to WT. Mechanistically, gene expression and ultrastructural analysis of microglia suggested a defect in myelin degradation and phagosome processing during CPZ intoxication in TREM2(-/-) microglia. These findings place TREM2 as a key regulator of microglia activation in vivo in response to tissue damage. Two STAGE (6weeks 12 weeks),

Complement C3 released from neurotoxic reactive astrocytes impairs learning and memory in the mouse model of postoperative neurodegenerative disorders

Project description:Perioperative neurocognitive disorder (PNDs) can commonly occur after major surgery in at risk patients and its occurrence increases medical healthcare burdens and even mortality. Accumulating evidence points to neuroinflammation being pivotal to the pathogenesis of these conditions. The complement cascade contributes to neuroinflammatory responses in the central nervous system (CNS) and complement C3 has been implicated in the manifestation of cognitive deficits in several neurological conditions. Neurotoxic reactive astrocytes function differently to their non-activated counterparts and release complement components in response to pathological triggers. We observed previously that surgery induces a rapid rise and then fall in cytokines but a more sustained glial activation response that coincided with postoperative cognitive impairment. In this study, we explored the relationship between the expression of complement C3, glial activation, and cognitive deficits. Using a murine model of surgery, we characterized the transcriptional profiles of hippocampal astrocytes after surgery and examined the effects of C3 suppression on the neuroinflammatory response and cognitive performance. There was a delayed but sustained rise in hippocampal C3 of astrocytic in origin after surgery which corresponded with the onset of cognitive decline. Furthermore, the A1 or the neurotoxic phenotype predominated in this postoperative astrocytic activation, and these cells have a distinct transcriptional profile including C3 upregulation. Suppression of C3 inhibited synaptic phagocytosis by microglia and attenuated postoperative cognitive impairment. Therefore, C3 from reactive astrocytes appear central to the development of cognitive dysfunction associated with postoperative neuroinflammation.

scRNAseq of co-culture of primary human oligodendrocytes and IL-23 polarized human CD4 T cells in direct contact (contact) versus separated by a porous membrane (insert, no contact)

Project description:Multiple sclerosis (MS) is characterized by the loss of myelin and of myelin-producing oligodendrocytes (OLs) in the central nervous system (CNS). Pro-inflammatory CD4+ Th17 cells are considered pathogenic in MS and are harmful to OLs. We investigated the mechanisms driving human CD4+ T cell-mediated OL cell death. Using single cell RNA sequencing, we assessed the transcriptomic profile of primary human OLs and Th17 cells in direct contact or separated by an insert. We showed that upon close interaction, OLs upregulate the expression of mRNA coding for chemokines and antioxidant/anti-apoptotic molecules, while Th17 cells upregulate the expression of mRNA coding for chemokines and pro-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-17A, IFN-γ and granzyme B. We found that secretion of CCL3, CXCL10, IFN-γ, TNFα and granzyme B is induced upon direct contact in co-cultures of human Th17 cells with human OLs. In addition, we validated by flow cytometry and immunofluorescence that granzyme B levels are upregulated in Th17 compared to Th2 cells, and are even higher in Th17 cells upon direct contact with OLs or MO3.13 cells compared to Th17 cells separated from OLs by an insert.

Oligodendrocyte-derived extracellular vesicles as antigen-specific therapy for autoimmune neuroinflammation

Project description:Autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis (MS) develop because of failed peripheral immune tolerance for a specific self-antigen (Ag). Numerous approaches for Ag-specific suppression of autoimmune neuroinflammation have been proven in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), an animal model of MS. One such approach is intravenous (i.v.) tolerance induction by injecting a myelin Ag used for EAE induction. However, the translation of this and similar experimental strategies into therapy for MS has been hampered by uncertainty regarding relevant myelin Ags in MS patients. To address this issue, we developed a therapeutic strategy that relies on oligodendrocyte (Ol)-derived extracellular vesicles (Ol-EVs), which naturally contain multiple myelin Ags. Ol-EVs injected i.v. suppressed disease in a myelin Ag-dependent manner, both prophylactically and therapeutically, in several EAE models. The treatment was safe and restored immune tolerance by inducing immunosuppressive monocytes and apoptosis of autoreactive encephalitogenic CD4+ T cells. Finally, we show that human Ols also release EVs containing most relevant myelin Ags, providing a basis for their use in MS therapy. These findings introduce an approach for suppressing central nervous system autoimmunity in a myelin Ag-specific manner.
