DNA methylome, R-loop and clinical exome profile of patients with sporadic Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (RRBS)

ABSTRACT: Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative disorder characterised by the death of motor neurons, the aetiology of which is essentially unknown. Here, we present an integrative epigenomic study in blood samples from seven clinically characterised sporadic ALS patients to elucidate molecular factors associated with the disease. We used clinical exome sequencing (CES) to study DNA variants, DNA-RNA hybrid immunoprecipitation sequencing (DRIP-seq) to assess R-loop distribution, and reduced representation bisulfite sequencing (RRBS) to examine DNA methylation changes. The above datasets were combined to create a comprehensive repository of genetic and epigenetic changes associated with the ALS cases studied. Our data descriptor is expected to guide further mechanistic studies on ALS to discover underlying genetic causes and develop new epigenetic therapies to combat this life-threatening disease.

Identification of Candidate Genes for Sporadic Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis by Array Comparative Genomic Hybridisation

Project description:Background: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a devastating disorder of the central nervous system that leads to progressive loss of upper and lower motor neurons. Most cases are sporadic and of unknown aetiology. In this study, we screened 71 patients with sporadic ALS for the presence of DNA copy number variations, in order to identify novel candidate disease genes. Methods: We have used sub-megabase resolution BAC array comparative genomic hybridisation to detect genomic imbalances in our ALS patient cohort. In order to distinguish phenotypically neutral copy number variations occurring frequently in the normal population from disease-associated aberrations, we screened our results against both the Database of Genomic Variants and a reference data set of approximately 700 normal individuals and probands with other disorders analysed in our laboratory. Aberrations with potential relevance for disease aetiology were verified by oligo array CGH. Findings: In 71 patients with sporadic ALS, we identified a total of six duplications and seven deletions that scored above our threshold. Twelve of these thirteen variations were smaller than 1Mb. Seven were observed exclusively in ALS patients and thus likely play causal roles in the disorder. Analysis of these regions highlighted, for example, the SLC1A7 (EAAT5) glutamate transporter and the kinesin family member KIF9 as good positional and functional candidate genes for ALS. Interpretation: Non-polymorphic sub-microscopic duplications and deletions observable by array CGH are frequent in patients with sporadic ALS. Analysis of such aberrations serves as an excellent starting point in deciphering the aetiology of this complex disease. Keywords: array CGH A cohort of 71 ALS patients was analysed by means of a submegabase resolution BAC array. No replicates were included. Experiments were done without dye swap.

Identification of circular RNAs in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis II

Project description:Circular RNAs are abundant, covalently closed transcripts that arise in cells through back-splicing and display distinct expression patterns across cells and developmental stages. While their functions are largely unknown, their intrinsic stability has made them valuable biomarkers in diseases like cancer. Here, we set out to examine circRNA patterns in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). By RNA-sequencing analysis, we first identified circRNAs and linear RNAs that were differentially abundant in skeletal muscle biopsies from ALS and normal individuals. Among these, 8 circRNAs were significantly elevated and 10 significantly reduced in ALS, while the linear counterparts, arising from shared precursor RNAs, did not change. Several of these circRNAs were also differentially abundant in motor neurons derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) bearing ALS mutations, and across different disease stages in skeletal muscle from a mouse model of ALS (SOD1G93A). Interestingly, several of the circRNAs significantly elevated in muscle were significantly reduced in the spinal cord from ALS patients and ALS (SOD1G93A) mice. In sum, we have identified differentially abundant circRNAs in ALS-relevant tissues (muscle and spinal cord) that could inform about neuromuscular molecular programs in ALS and guide the development of therapies.

Wide-ranging analysis of microRNA profiles in sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis using next-generation sequencing

Project description:miRNAs has an important role in the diagnosis and treatment of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. we aimed to profile dysregulation of miRNAs in ALS blood and neuromuscular junction as well as healthy blood control by Next Generation Sequencing (NGS). The expression of three up-regulated miRNAs, as miR-338-3p, miR-223-3p and miR-326, in the ALS samples compared to healthy controls, has been validated by qRT-PCR in a cohort of 45 samples collected previously. Bioinformatics tools were used to perform ALS microRNAs target analysis and to predict novel miRNAs secondary structure. The analysis of the NGS data identified 696 and 44 novel miRNAs which were differentially expressed in ALS tissues.

Diversity of early astrocyte reactive profiles in familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

Project description:Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a rapidly progressive and fatal disease. Although astrocytes are increasingly recognized contributors to the underlying pathogenesis, the uniformity of their reactive transformation in different genetic forms of ALS remains unresolved. Here we begin to systematically examine this issue by performing RNA sequencing on highly enriched and serum-free human induced pluripotent stem cell derived astrocytes from patients with VCP, SOD1 and FUS mutations. The RNA-seq samples in this collection have been used to reveal that diverse fALS mutations lead to molecularly distinct reactive transformation in their basal state.
