Potential off-targets investigation of a lead antisense oligonucleotides targeting ABCA4 c.768G>T in retinal organoids

ABSTRACT: Stargardt disease type 1 (STGD1) is a progressive retinal disorder caused by bi-allelic variants in the ABCA4 gene. More than 2,400 unique ABCA4 variants have been described, a significant proportion of which affects pre-mRNA splicing. A recurrent variant at the exon-intron junction of exon 6, c.768G>T causes a 35 nt elongation of exon 6 that leads to premature termination of protein synthesis. Testing of antisense oligonucleotides (AON) in photoreceptor precursor cells and retinal organoids allowed the selection of a lead candidate AON that performed the best in rescuing the splicing defect caused by ABCA4 c.768G>T. Total transcriptomics analysis was performed to investigate the potential off-targets of this AON.

RNA-Seq of retina and RPE/choroid tissues from wild type, Abca4 knockout and Abca4 L541P;A1038V knockin mice

Project description:We report RNA-Seq analysis of the transcriptome of retinas and RPE/choroids from Abca4 knockout, Abca4 L541P;A1038V knockin and control wild type mice in order to better understand changes in gene regulation that could lead to retinal pathology in mice with ABCA4 deficiency/defect. Retinal and RPE/choroidal mRNA profiles of 30-day-old wild type (WT), Abca4-/- and Abca4L541P;A1038V/L541P;A1038V mice were generated by RNA-Seq, using Illumina Hiseq 2500

Antisense oligonucleotide-mediated disruption of HTT caspase-6 cleavage site ameliorates the phenotype of YAC128 Huntington disease mice

Project description:In Huntington’s Disease, cellular toxicity is particularly caused by toxic protein fragments generated from the mutant huntingtin (HTT) protein. By modifying the HTT protein, we aim to reduce proteolytic cleavage and ameliorate the consequences of mutant HTT without lowering total HTT levels. To that end, we use an antisense oligonucleotide (AON) that targets HTT pre-mRNA and induces partial skipping of exon 12, which contains the critical caspase-6 cleavage site. Here, we show that AON-treatment can partially restore the phenotype of YAC128 mice, a mouse model expressing the full-length human HTT gene including 128 CAG-repeats. Wild-type and YAC128 mice were treated intracerebroventricularly with AON12.1, scrambled AON or vehicle starting at 6 months of age and followed up to 12 months of age, when MRI was performed and mice were sacrificed. AON12.1 treatment induced around 40% exon skip and protein modification. The phenotype on body weight and activity, but not rotarod, was restored by AON treatment. Genes differentially expressed in YAC128 striatum changed towards wild-type levels and striatal volume was preserved upon AON12.1 treatment. However, scrambled AON also showed a restorative effect on gene expression and appeared to generally increase brain volume.

GAA deficiency in Pompe disease is alleviated by exon inclusion in iPS cell-derived skeletal muscle cells

Project description:While there are many human skeletal muscle disorders, very few therapies have been developed. It has not been possible to generate large amounts of purified skeletal muscle cells from pluripotent stem cells, and to test therapies quantitatively. We therefore devised conditions for generating and expanding purified human myogenic progenitors from induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells. The progenitors retained the capacity to differentiate into multinucleated myotubes and showed a normal karyotype throughout the expansion phase. We applied this method to Pompe disease, a metabolic myopathy caused by deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme acid alpha-glucosidase (GAA). In a screen, we identified sequences that suppressed aberrant GAA exon 2 splicing caused by the frequent c.-32-13T>G (IVS1) GAA variant. Antisense oligonucleotides (AONs) that blocked these sequences promoted exon 2 inclusion in patient-derived myotubes. As this raised GAA enzymatic activity above the disease threshold, AON-mediated splicing correction may provide a treatment option for Pompe disease.

A mutation in a splicing factor that causes retinitis pigmentosa (RP) has a transcriptome-wide effect on mRNA splicing

Project description:Background: Substantial progress has been made in the identification of sequence elements that control mRNA splicing and the genetic variants in these elements that alter mRNA splicing (referred to as splicing quantitative trait loci -- sQTLs). Genetic variants that affect mRNA splicing in trans are harder to identify because their effects can be more subtle and diffuse, and the variants are not co-located with their targets. We carried out a transcriptome-wide analysis of the effects of a mutation in a ubiquitous splicing factor that causes retinitis pigmentosa (RP) on mRNA splicing, using exon microarrays. Results: Exon microarray data was generated from whole blood samples obtained from four individuals with a mutation in the splicing factor PRPF8 and four sibling controls. Although the mutation has no known phenotype in blood, there was evidence of widespread differences in splicing between cases and controls (affecting between 10\% and 25\% of exons). Most probesets with significantly different inclusion (defined as the expression intensity of the exon divided by the expression of the corresponding transcript) between cases and controls had higher inclusion in cases and corresponded to exons that were shorter than average, AT-rich, located towards the 5' end of the gene and flanked by long introns. Introns flanking affected probesets were particularly depleted for the shortest category of introns, associated with splicing via intron definition. Conclusions: Our results show that a mutation in a splicing factor, with a phenotype that is restricted to retinal tissue, acts as a trans-sQTL cluster in whole blood samples. Characteristics of the affected exons suggest that they are spliced co-transcriptionally and via exon definition. Eight samples consisting of four sibling pairs were analysed. One individual in each pair harboured an RP-causing mutation on the PRPF8 gene (cases). Unaffected siblings were used as controls.

Cell Autonomous Lipid Handling Defects in Stargardt iPS Cell-Derived Retinal Pigment Epithelium Cells

Project description:Stargardt retinopathy is an inherited form of macular degeneration caused by mutations in gene ABCA4 and characterized by the accumulation of lipid-rich deposits in the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), RPE atrophy, and photoreceptor cell death. Inadequate mechanistic insights into pathophysiological changes occurring in Stargardt RPE have contributed to its lacking treatments. Here we show that ABCA4 knockout or Stargardt patient’s induced pluripotent stem cells-derived RPE (STGD1-iRPE) differentiate normally but display intracellular lipid and ceramide deposits reminiscent of the disease phenotype. STGD1-iRPE also shows defective photoreceptor outer segment (POS) processing and reduced cathepsin B activity, indicating higher lysosomal pH. Lipid deposits in STGD1-iRPE are reduced by increasing the activity of ABCA1, a lipid transporter, and ABCA4 ortholog. Overall, our work suggests that ABCA4 is involved in POS and lipid handling in RPE cells and provides guidance for ongoing gene therapy approaches to target both RPE and photoreceptor cells for an effective treatment.

Rescue of blood coagulation Factor VIII exon-16 mis-splicing by antisense oligonucleotides

Project description:The human Factor VIII (F8) protein is essential for the blood coagulation cascade and specific F8 mutations cause the rare bleeding disorder Hemophilia A (HA). Here, we investigated the impact of HA-causing single-nucleotide mutations on F8 pre-mRNA splicing. We found that 14/97 (∼14.4%) coding sequence mutations tested in our study induced exon skipping. Splicing patterns of 4/11 (∼36.4%) F8 exons tested were especially sensitive to the presence of common disease-causing mutations. RNA-chemical probing analyses revealed a three-way junction structure at the 3′ end of intron 15 (TWJ-3-15). TWJ-3-15 sequesters the polypyrimidine tract, a key determinant of 3′ splice site strength. Using exon-16 of the F8 gene as a model, we designed specific antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) that target TWJ-3-15 and identified three that promote the splicing of F8 exon-16. Interaction of TWJ-3-15 with ASOs increases accessibility of the polypyrimidine tract and inhibits the binding of hnRNPA1-dependent splicing silencing factors. Moreover, ASOs targeting TWJ-3-15 rescue diverse splicing-sensitive HA-causing mutations, most of which are distal to the 3’ splice site being impacted. The TWJ-3-15 structure and its effect on mRNA splicing provide a model for HA etiology in patients harboring specific F8 mutations and provide a framework for precision RNA-based HA therapies.
