Changes in the primary cilia in Alzheimer’s disease early development is associated with alterations in the axon initial segment.

ABSTRACT: Many pathological alterations happen decades before cognitive decline in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) patients. Identifying the earliest changes in AD neurons is crucial for AD diagnosis and therapy development targeting upstream events in AD pathogenesis. Here, we demonstrated the early common alterations in the hippocampal neurons from 3 familial AD mouse lines (APP/PS1, 5FAD, 3*Tg) are associated with the primary cilium morphology and ciliary GPCRs. The primary cilia interact with the axon initial segment (AIS) through ciliary GPCR signaling and transcriptional regulation of AIS mater organizer protein AnkG. Our results provide new insights for AD pathogenesis especially during early stage, and a novel mechanism by which ciliary signaling may modulate neuronal activity through regulating the structure and plasticity of the AIS. Understanding AD development at early stage could help identifying new potential targets for AD prevention and therapy.

Immunoproximity biotinylation reveals the axon initial segment proteome

Project description:The axon initial segment (AIS) is a specialized neuronal compartment required for action potential generation and neuronal polarity. However, understanding the mechanisms regulating AIS structure and function has been hindered by an incomplete knowledge of its molecular composition. Here, using immuno-proximity biotinylation we further define the AIS proteome and its dynamic changes during neuronal maturation. Among the many AIS proteins identified, we show that SCRIB is highly enriched in the AIS both in vitro and in vivo, and exhibits a periodic architecture like the axonal spectrin-based cytoskeleton. We found that ankyrinG interacts with and recruits SCRIB to the AIS. However, loss of SCRIB has no effect on ankyrinG. This powerful and flexible approach further defines the AIS proteome and provides a rich resource to elucidate the mechanisms regulating AIS structure and function.

Neurofilament accumulations in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis patients’ motor neurons impair structural axonal initial segment integrity

Project description:Neurofilament (NF) accumulation is a pathological hallmark observed in motor neurons (MNs) of patients with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and levels of NF in fluids is becoming the prime biomarker of ALS progression. However, the underlying mechanisms linking NF accumulations and MN degeneration are not elucidated. Here, we show that integrity of the axonal initial segment (AIS), the region of action potential initiation and of polarized trafficking, is impaired by NF accumulations in human MNs carrying mutations in the two main causal ALS genes: C9ORF72 and SOD1. We show that in mutant MNs derived from induced pluripotent stem cells, both light (NF-L) and phosphorylated heavy chains (pNF-H) accumulated progressively with MN aging and that pNF-H accumulation in the AIS region led to significant structural and molecular alterations. In parallel, ALS MNs acquired altered excitability with aging. Focusing on axonal organization appears as an effective readout for MN cell death and preserving AIS integrity could have important therapeutic implications.

Drosophila voltage-gated sodium channels are only expressed in active neurons and are localized to distal axonal initial segment-like domains

Project description:In multipolar vertebrate neurons, action potentials (AP) initiate close to the soma, at the axonal initial segment (AIS). Invertebrate neurons are typically unipolar with dendrites integrating directly into the axon. Where APs are initiated in the axons of invertebrate neurons is unclear. Voltage-gated sodium (NaV) channels are a functional hallmark of the AIS in vertebrates. We used an intronic MiMIC to determine the endogenous gene expression and subcellular localization of the sole NaV channel in both male and female Drosophila, para. Despite being the only NaV channel in the fly, we show that only 23 ±1% of neurons in the embryonic and larval CNS express para, while in the adult CNS para is broadly expressed. We generated a single-cell transcriptomic atlas of the whole 3rd instar larval brain to identify para expressing neurons and show that it positively correlates with markers of differentiated, actively firing neurons. Therefore only 23 ±1% of larval neurons may be capable of firing NaV-dependent APs. We then show that Para is enriched in an axonal segment, distal to the site of dendritic integration into the axon, which we named the Distal Axonal Segment (DAS). The DAS is present in multiple neuron classes in both the 3rd instar larval and adult CNS. Whole cell patch clamp electrophysiological recordings of adult CNS fly neurons are consistent with the interpretation that Nav-dependent APs originate in the DAS. Identification of the distal NaV localization in fly neurons will enable more accurate interpretation of electrophysiological recordings in invertebrates.

Investigating the role of p16 and cellular senescence in Alzheimer’s disease pathogenesis

Project description:Advancing age is the greatest risk factor for Alzheimer’s Disease (AD), as most AD patients are age 65 and older. However, the mechanistic contribution of aging to AD is unclear. Cellular senescence, one of the major hallmarks of aging, is recently implicated as an aggravator of AD pathogenesis. The critical senescence regulator p16 is increased in neurons of AD patients and mouse models. Eliminating p16-expressing senescent cells attenuates AD pathologies in AD mouse models. However, what p16 does in post-mitotic neurons and how p16 contributes to AD pathogenesis remains unknown. As clinical trials continually fail to improve cognitive decline in AD patients, it is increasingly important to develop a better human cell-based model system to advance our understanding of the impact of aging in AD pathogenesis. Induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) technology has revolutionized human disease modeling, enabling differentiation to relevant brain cell types for the study of AD pathogenesis in a human cell-based culture environment. AD iPSC-derived neurons exhibit higher levels of Amyloid beta secretion and tau phosphorylation compared to non-demented control iPSC-derived neurons. Nevertheless, iPSC-derived neurons are “fetal-like” and fail to recapitulate the aging process in AD pathogenesis. Thus, we have developed a robust human iPSC-based neuron model to investigate the contribution of p16 expression to cellular senescence and AD pathogenesis. We found that inducible p16 expression leads to senescence phenotypes in AD as well as non-demented control iPSC-derived neurons. The impact of p16 and induced senescence in neurons on the cellular pathologies of AD is investigated. Our study provides a novel approach to investigate aging-associated cellular changes that potentially influence AD patient-derived differentiated neurons to age and become more permissive to AD pathogenesis in culture.

Puri2010 - Mathematical Modeling for the Pathogenesis of Alzheimer's Disease

Project description:Puri2010 - Mathematical Modeling for the Pathogenesis of Alzheimer's Disease Puri2010 - Mathematical Modeling for the Pathogenesis of Alzheimer's Disease Encoded non-curated model. Issues: - Confusing replacement of α16 when t = 3 years - Confusing 4th rate equation This model is described in the article: Mathematical modeling for the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. Puri IK, Li L. PLoS ONE 2010; 5(12): e15176 Abstract: Despite extensive research, the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative Alzheimer's disease (AD) still eludes our comprehension. This is largely due to complex and dynamic cross-talks that occur among multiple cell types throughout the aging process. We present a mathematical model that helps define critical components of AD pathogenesis based on differential rate equations that represent the known cross-talks involving microglia, astroglia, neurons, and amyloid-? (A?). We demonstrate that the inflammatory activation of microglia serves as a key node for progressive neurodegeneration. Our analysis reveals that targeting microglia may hold potential promise in the prevention and treatment of AD. This model is hosted on BioModels Database and identified by: MODEL1409240001.

Single-cell sequencing of cerebral organoids with familial Alzheimer’s disease (AD) mutation in PSEN1 and non-demented control

Project description:We set up a 3D model based on iPSCs derived from patients with familial forms of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and healthy non-demented control. We created cerebral organoids (COs), verified their ability to mimic AD in vitro, and used it to explore early events and the progression of AD pathogenesis. Our data reveal that despite similar expression of cell-type-specific genes during CO maturation in vitro, AD-iPSCs derived COs show limited tissue patterning and altered cellular development. These findings complement unique single-cell sequencing data of AD-iPSCs derived COs confirming this observation and uncovering that a sub-set of neurons in AD-iPSCs likely differentiates prematurely while at the same time retaining the expression of progenitor marker PAX6.

Induced pluripotent stem cell-derived models of sporadic and familial Alzheimer’s disease

Project description:Our understanding of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathogenesis is currently limited by difficulties in obtaining live neurons from patients and the inability to model the sporadic form of AD. It may be possible to overcome these challenges by reprogramming primary cells from patients into induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). We reprogrammed primary fibroblasts from two patients with familial AD (both caused by a duplication of APP1, APPDp), two with sporadic AD (sAD1, 2) and two non-demented control individuals (NDCs) into iPSC lines. Neurons from differentiated cultures were FACS-purified and characterized. Purified cultures contained >90% neurons, clustered with fetal brain mRNA samples by microarray criteria, and could form functional synaptic contacts. Virtually all cells exhibited normal electrophysiological activity. Relative to controls, iPSC-derived, purified neurons from the two APPDp patients and patient sAD2 exhibited significantly higher levels of secreted Aβ1-40, phospho-tauThr231 (pTau) and active GSK3β (aGSK3β). Neurons from APPDp and sAD2 patients also accumulated large Rab5-positive early endosomes compared to controls. Treatment of purified neurons with β-secretase inhibitors, but not g-secretase inhibitors, caused significant reductions in pTau and aGSK3β levels. These results suggest a direct relationship between APP proteolytic processing, but not Aβ, in GSK3β activation and tau phosphorylation in human neurons. Additionally, we observed that neurons with the genome of one sAD patient exhibited the phenotypes seen in familial AD samples. More generally, we demonstrate that iPSC technology can be used to observe phenotypes relevant to AD, even though it can take decades for overt disease to manifest in patients.
