Yin Yang 1 and guanine quadruplexes protect dopaminergic neurons from cellular stress via transmissive dormancy [TG timeline RNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: Neurons deploy diverse adaptive strategies to ensure survival and neurotransmission amid cellular stress. Yet, when these adaptive pathways are overwhelmed, functional impairment or neurodegeneration follow. Herein we report a scenario where stressed neurons actively adopt a state of transmissive dormancy, despite rapid activation of stress response pathways, as a terminal protective measure. Examination of dopaminergic neurons surviving severe cellular stress, revealed decreased spontaneous activity accompanied by dynamic control of dopamine metabolism through the Yin Yang 1 (YY1) transcriptional regulator. Under conditions of ionic imbalance or oxidative stress, YY1 promotes expression of the SLC18A2 transporter with the capacity to enhance sequestration of dopamine into transport vesicles. Subsequent DNA damage represses the rate-limiting enzyme in dopamine synthesis, tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), through YY1 mediated stabilization of an intronic guanine quadruplex. This cascade has the potential to drive circuit inactivation and safeguard neurons by minimizing the toxic accumulation of cytosolic dopamine and reducing the energetic expenditure associated with cellular depolarization. In essence, neurons appear to actively prioritize viability over functionality.

Yin Yang 1 and guanine quadruplexes protect dopaminergic neurons from cellular stress via transmissive dormancy [BG4 CUT&RUN]

Project description:Neurons deploy diverse adaptive strategies to ensure survival and neurotransmission amid cellular stress. When these adaptive pathways are overwhelmed, functional impairment or neurodegeneration follows. Here, we report a scenario where stressed neurons actively induce a state of transmissive dormancy as a protective measure. Examination of dopaminergic neurons surviving severe cellular challenges revealed decreased spontaneous activity accompanied by dynamic control of dopamine metabolism through the transcriptional regulator Yin Yang 1 (YY1). Under these conditions, YY1 increases expression of the vesicular monoamine transporter 2, promoting sequestration of dopamine into synaptic vesicles. Following oxidative stress and subsequent DNA damage, YY1 inhibits dopamine synthesis through stabilization of a guanine quadruplex in intron 10 of tyrosine hydroxylase. This cytoprotective response has the potential to drive circuit inactivation and safeguard neurons by minimizing the toxic accumulation of cytosolic dopamine and inducing a state of neuronal dormancy. In essence, neurons appear to actively prioritize viability over functionality.

Cytosolic dopamine determines hypersensitivity to blunt force trauma [N2 injury timeline]

Project description:The selective vulnerability of dopaminergic neurons to trauma-induced neurodegeneration is a conserved phenomenon across species, extending from nematodes to humans. However, the molecular mechanisms contributing to this hypersensitivity to blunt force injury remain poorly understood. We find that dopamine oxidation, a key driver of Parkinson’s Disease, extends its toxic role to the acute challenges of blunt force trauma. Ectopic synthesis of dopamine in serotonergic neurons alone proves sufficient in determining neuronal subtype sensitivity to trauma-induced death. While dopaminergic neurons maintain this neurotransmitter in a functional and benign state, trauma-induced subcellular redox imbalances elicit dopamine-dependent cytotoxicity. Perturbing dopamine synthesis and its packaging into synaptic vesicles further demonstrate how cytosolic dopamine is both necessary and sufficient to drive cell loss upon mechanical stress and during aging. Additionally, trauma activates the B-Zip transcription factor, fos-1, which exacerbates this toxic cascade by transcriptionally upregulating the rate-limiting enzyme in dopamine synthesis, cat-2. In summary, our study unravels the molecular intricacies that render dopaminergic neurons uniquely prone to physical perturbation, highlighting a shared vulnerability across different evolutionary lines.

Single cell sequencing of iPSC-dopamine neurons reconstructs disease progression and identifies HDAC4 as a regulator of Parkinson cell phenotypes

Project description:Induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived dopamine neurons provide an opportunity to model Parkinson’s disease (PD) but neuronal cultures are confounded by cellular heterogeneity. By applying high-resolution single cell transcriptomic analyses to Parkinson’s iPSC-derived dopamine neurons carrying the GBA-N370S risk variant, we exploited intra-culture cellular heterogeneity to identify a progressive axis of gene expression variation leading to endoplasmic reticulum stress. Analysis of genes differentially-expressed (DE) along this axis identified the transcriptional repressor histone deacetylase 4 (HDAC4) as an upstream regulator of disease progression. HDAC4 was mislocalized to the nucleus in PD iPSC-derived dopamine neurons and repressed genes early in the disease axis, leading to late deficits in protein homeostasis. Treatment of iPSC-derived dopamine neurons with compounds known to modulate HDAC4 activity upregulated genes early in the DE axis, and corrected Parkinson’s-related cellular phenotypes. Our study demonstrates how single cell transcriptomics can exploit cellular heterogeneity to reveal disease mechanisms and identify therapeutic targets.

A neuronal transcription factor is required in the prefrontal cortex for transcriptional and behavioral adaptation to chronic stress

Project description:Stressful life events increase risk for depression, yet the molecular mechanisms by which stress is encoded in the brain to induce maladaptive behaviors are not well understood. Emerging evidence has shown that stress dysregulates gene expression in the brain, yet the cellular origin of these gene expression alterations has yet to be determined. To address this question, we used a chronic unpredictable stress (CUS) paradigm that drives depressive- and anxiety-like behaviors in male and female mice and single-nucleus transcriptomics to identify cell type-specific gene expression changes in the cortex. We find that neocortical excitatory neurons are particularly vulnerable to chronic stress exposure, and that CUS reprograms these cells to decrease transcription of synaptic genes involved in glutamatergic neurotransmission. We identify the ubiquitously expressed factor, Yin Yang 1 (YY1), as a key driver of the transcriptional reprogramming observed in excitatory neurons isolated from CUS mice. Selective depletion of YY1 in excitatory neurons of the prefrontal cortex (PFC) increases the stress sensitivity of mice, inducing depressive- and anxiety-related behaviors following an abbreviated stress exposure and deregulating expression of key stress-related genes in the PFC. Importantly, we find that YY1 functions in both males and females to facilitate stress coping. This work establishes a novel mechanism underlying chronic stress-induced behavior, in which epigenetic responses to stress in PFC excitatory neurons are mediated by stress-dependent YY1 activity. Our findings demonstrate how post-mitotic neurons adapt to stress experience and identify a novel molecular target that is generalizable to males and females for therapeutic treatment of stress-related neuropsychiatric disorders.
