Plasma miRNAs as biomarkers of epilepsy

ABSTRACT: Epilepsy frequently develops as a result of brain insult, for example brain injury or stroke. Currently there are no tools allowing us to predict which trauma patients will eventually develop epilepsy. There is evidence that microRNAs levels are altered in plasma, making them attractive candidates for peripheral biomarkers of epilepsy. We analyzed miRNA levels in plasma samples using Affymetrix microarrays 4.1 and performed comparative analysis of samples. We performed 3 comparisons: i) control animals vs. Status epilepticus animals, ii) animals which developed first spontaneous seizure around 7 days post stimulation (EARLY), or later after 21days post stimulation (LATE), iii) animals that had developed seizures at given timepoint (EPI) and animals that did not experience seizures by given timepoint (NONEPI).

Blood miRNA as biomarkers of epilepsy (HIGH vs. LOW)

Project description:Epilepsy frequently develops as a result of brain insult, for example brain injury or stroke. Currently there are no tools allowing us to predict which trauma patients will eventually develop epilepsy. There is evidence that microRNAs levels are altered in the blood, making them attractive candidates for peripheral biomarkers of epilepsy. We analyzed miRNA levels in blood samples using Affymetrix microarrays 4.1 and performed comparative analysis of samples. We performed 3 comparisons: i) control animals vs. Status epilepticus animals, ii) animals which developed first spontaneous seizure around 7 days post stimulation (EARLY), or later after 21days post stimulation (LATE), iii) animals that had high or low number of seizures as determined by seizures number (EARLY vs. LATE).

Identification of differentially expressed genes in the hippocampus in the intraamygdala kainic acid mouse model of status epilepticus.

Project description:The aim of this work was to identify mRNA expression changes in the ipsilateral hippocampus in the intraamygdala kainic acid (KA) mouse model of status epilepticus. In this model, status epilepticus (prolonged damaging seizures) are triggered by an intraamygdala KA injection. All mice develop epilepsy after a short latency period of 3-5 days. For our experiments, 10-week old mice with a C57BL/6 background were either injected with intraamygdala KA (n = 18) or vehicle (PBS, n = 18). Mice were sacrificed 8 hours following status epilepticus (acute pathology) or 14 days post-status epilepticus (timepoint at which all mice suffer from chronic epilepsy) and ipsilateral hippocampi were quickly dissected and pooled into 3 groups (n = 3 per pooled sample).

Changes in the gene expression in the inferior colliculus of the sound stimulated both control Syrian hamsters and the strain GASH:Sal.

Project description:Using microarray analyses and subsequent verification by RT-PCR, we studied the changes in gene expression in the inferior colliculus after an ictal event in one models of audiogenic epilepsy, genetic audiogenic seizure hamster (GASH:Sal). GASH:Sal, a hamster strain developed at the University of Salamanca, exhibits genetic audiogenic epilepsy similar to human Grand Mal epilepsy. GASH:Sal shows an autosomal recessive inheritance for susceptibility to audiogenic seizures, which manifest more severely in young animals; the seizure severity progressively declines with age. Genetic animal models of epilepsy are an important tool for further understanding the basic cellular mechanisms underlying epileptogenesis and for developing novel antiepileptic drugs. We conducted a comparative study of gene expression in the inferior colliculus, a nucleus that triggers audiogenic seizures, using two animal models, the Wistar audiogenic rat (WAR) and the genetic audiogenic seizure hamster (GASH:Sal). For this purpose, both models were subjected to auditory stimulation, and 60 minutes after stimulation, the inferior colliculi were collected. As a control, intact Wistar rats and Syrian hamsters were subjected to identical stimulation and tissue preparation protocols to those performed on the experimental animals. A total of 24 animals were used in this study according to the following distribution: 12 control Syrian hamsters (Mesocricetus auratus) and 12 GASH:Sal at 16 weeks of age and a body weight of approximately 60 g. Six animals Syrian and GASH:Sal hamsters, respectively, were exposed to auditory stimulation, and 60 min after the seizures, we harvested the IC for all gene expression analyses (stimulated Syrian hamsters and stimulated GASH:Sal hamsters). As controls, other six animals Syrian and GASH:Sal hamsters, respectively, were not exposed to the same stimulation (Syrian hamsters and GASH:Sal hamsters).

Brain cell-specific origin of circulating microRNA biomarkers in experimental temporal lobe epilepsy

Project description:The diagnosis of epilepsy is complex and challenging and would benefit from the availability of molecular biomarkers, ideally measurable in a biofluid such as blood. Experimental and human epilepsy are associated with altered brain and blood levels of various microRNAs (miRNAs). Evidence is lacking, however, as to whether any of the circulating pool of miRNAs originates from the brain. To explore the link between circulating miRNAs and the pathophysiology of epilepsy, we first sequenced Ago2-bound miRNAs in plasma samples collected from mice subject to status epilepticus (SE) induced by intraamygdala microinjection of kainic acid. This identified time-dependent changes in plasma levels of miRNAs with known neuronal and microglial-cell origins. To explore whether the circulating miRNAs had originated from the brain, we generated mice expressing FLAG-Ago2 in neurons or microglia using tamoxifen-inducible Thy1 or Cx3cr1 promoters, respectively. FLAG immunoprecipitates from the plasma of these mice after seizures contained miRNAs, including let-7i-5p and miR-19b-3p. Taken together, these studies confirm that a portion of the circulating pool of miRNAs in experimental epilepsy originates from the brain, increasing support for miRNAs as mechanistic biomarkers of epilepsy.

Changes in the gene expression in the inferior colliculus of the sound stimulated rats both Wistar and the strain susceptible to audiogenic seizures WAR

Project description:Using microarray analyses and subsequent verification by RT-PCR, we studied the changes in gene expression in the inferior colliculus after an ictal event in one models of audiogenic epilepsy, Wistar audigenic rat (WAR). WAR is a genetically selected strain susceptible to audiogenic seizures that was inbred in the School of Medicine of RibeirÃ£o Preto (Brazil) beginning in 1990. This strain is a model of audiogenic idiopathic epilepsy that develops tonic-clonic generalized seizures. Genetic animal models of epilepsy are an important tool for further understanding the basic cellular mechanisms underlying epileptogenesis and for developing novel antiepileptic drugs. We conducted a comparative study of gene expression in the inferior colliculus, a nucleus that triggers audiogenic seizures, using two animal models, the Wistar audiogenic rat (WAR) and the genetic audiogenic seizure hamster (GASH:Sal). For this purpose, both models were subjected to auditory stimulation, and 60 minutes after stimulation, the inferior colliculi were collected. As a control, intact Wistar rats and Syrian hamsters were subjected to identical stimulation and tissue preparation protocols to those performed on the experimental animals. A total of 15 animals were used in this study according to the following distribution: 9 male WAR and 6 male control rats (Rattus norvegicus, Wistar albino, Charles River Laboratories) at 12 weeks of age and a body weight of approximately 230 g. The animals were exposed to auditory stimulation, and 60 min after the seizures, we harvested the IC for all gene expression analyses. As controls, normal Wistar rats were exposed to the same stimulation according to the identical procedure. For gene microarray (Rat Gene 1.0 ST), the rats were randomly divided into two groups, and we used both sides of the IC (ipsilateral and contralateral) from each animal: stimulated Wistar rats and stimulated WAR rats.

Genetic deletion of microRNA-22 blunts the inflammatory transcriptional response to status epilepticus and exacerbates epilepsy in mice

Project description:Mice lacking miR-22 displayed normal behavior and brain structure and developed similar status epilepticus after intraamygdala kainic acid compared to wildtype animals. Subsequent continuous EEG monitoring revealed an accelerated and exacerbated epileptogenesis whereby spontaneous seizures began sooner, occurred more frequently and were of longer duration in miR-22-deficient mice. RNA sequencing analysis of the hippocampus of mice during the period of epileptogenesis revealed a widespread suppression of inflammatory signalling in the hippocampus of miR-22-deficient mice. Taken together, these findings indicate a role for miR-22 in establishing early inflammatory responses to status epilepticus. Inflammatory signalling may serve anti-epileptogenic functions and cautions the timing of anti-inflammatory treatments for the treatment of status epilepticus.
