Project description:Sepsis-associated encephalopathy (SAE) is an acute cerebral dysfunction caused by sepsis. Neuroinflammation induced by sepsis is considered a potential mechanism of SAE; however, very little is known about the role of the meningeal lymphatic system in SAE. The aged mice with SAE showed a significant decrease in the drainage of OVA-647 into the dCLNs and the coverage of the Lyve-1 in the meningeal lymphatic, indicating that sepsis impaired meningeal lymphatic drainage and morphology. The meningeal lymphatic function of aged mice was more vulnerable to sepsis in comparison to young mice. Sepsis also decreased the protein levels of caspase-3 and PSD95, which was accompanied by reductions in the activity of hippocampal neurons. Microglia were significantly activated in the hippocampus of SAE mice, which was accompanied by an increase in neuroinflammation, as indicated by increases in interleukin-1 beta, interleukin-6 and Iba1 expression. Cognitive function was impaired in aged mice with SAE. However, the injection of AAV1-VEGF-C significantly increased coverage in the lymphatic system and tracer dye uptake in dCLNs, suggesting that AAV1-VEGF-C promotes meningeal lymphangiogenesis and drainage. Furthermore, AAV1-VEGF-C reduced microglial activation and neuroinflammation and improved cognitive dysfunction. Improvement of meningeal lymphatics also reduced sepsis-induced expression of disease-associated genes in aged mice. Pre-existing lymphatic dysfunction by ligating bilateral dCLNs aggravated sepsis-induced neuroinflammation and cognitive impairment.

Project description:Background：CircRNAs are non-coding RNA molecules that have recently been described and shown to regulate miRNA functionality. While recent studies have suggested such circRNAs to be associated with pain related diseases in humans, no comprehensive migraine-related circRNA profiles have been generated and there is currently no clear understanding of whether they can serve as regulators of migraine pathology. Methods:We initially conducted a circRNA microarray analysis of the plasma of migraine patients and healthy controls. Based upon these data, we then selected 8 differentially expressed circRNAs and confirmed their expression in more migraine patient plasma samples via real-time PCR. We then performed functional and pathway enrichment analyses. Lastly, using a robust rank aggregation approach, we constructed a ceRNA network according to predicted circRNA–miRNA and miRNA–mRNA pairs in these migraine patient samples. Results:we were able to detect 2039 circRNAs in our patient samples, with and 794 of 1245 these circRNAs being up- and down-regulated in migraine patients relative to controls, respectively (fold change ≥1.5, P < 0.01). A qRT-PCR analysis confirmed that the expression of hsa_circRNA_100236, hsa_circRNA_102413, and hsa_circRNA_000367 was significantly enhanced in migraine patients, whereas the expression of hsa_circRNA_103809, hsa_circRNA_103670, and hsa_circRNA_101833 was significantly reduced in these individuals relative to healthy controls. We found these differentially regulated circRNAs to be associated with numerous predicted biological processes, with enrichment analyses suggesting that they may modulate PI3K-Akt signaling so as to promote inflammation to drive migraine development. However, further research will be needed to formally test these mechanistic possibilities and to validate these circRNAs as potential biomarkers of migraine patients.Conclusions: our results offer new potential insights into the mechanistic basis of this condition, and suggest that hsa_circRNA_000367 and hsa_circRNA_102413 may offer value as regulators of migraine pathology.

Project description:The meningeal lymphatic network—housed within the dural meninges surrounding the brain— is critical for cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) drainage. Through continuous brain interstitial fluid (ISF) mixing with CSF via the glymphatic system, this lymphatic network facilitates the removal of central nervous system (CNS) waste. During aging and in Alzheimer’s disease (AD), attenuated meningeal lymphatic drainage promotes the buildup of toxic misfolded proteins—including amyloid beta—in the CNS. Alleviating this age-related meningeal lymphatic dysfunction represents a promising therapeutic strategy to alleviate AD pathology. However, the mechanisms underlying this lymphatic decline remain elusive. Here we demonstrate that age-related alterations in meningeal immunity contribute to meningeal lymphatic impairment. Single-cell RNA-sequencing of dural lymphatic endothelial cells in aged mice demonstrated a response signature to the cytokine IFNγ, which was elevated in the aged dura due to meningeal T cell accumulation. Chronic elevation of IFNγ in the meninges of young mice via AAV-mediated overexpression altered lymphatic adherans junctions and impaired CSF drainage to deep cervical lymph nodes—comparable to the deficits observed in aged mice. Direct disruption of lymphatic junctions via CSF-delivered VE-Cadherin disrupting antibodies was sufficient to phenocopy impairments in CSF drainage. Therapeutically, IFNγ neutralization in aged mice alleviated age-related impairments in meningeal lymphatic function. These data suggest manipulation of meningeal immunity as a viable therapeutic target to normalize CSF drainage in aged mice and alleviate the pathology in AD mice associated with impaired waste removal.

Project description:alpha-CGRP is a neuropeptide that is also expressed in the fracture callus during bone regeneration. Our aim was to evaluate the role of alpha-CGRP in the context of fracture healing. Therefore we investigated the effect of alpha-CGRP deficiency on fracture callus formation. We used microarray analysis to compare the global gene expression of fracture calli from alpha-CGRP deficient mice and WT mice.

Project description:The somatosensory nervous system surveils external stimuli at barrier tissues, regulating innate immune cells under infection and inflammation. The roles of sensory neurons in controlling the adaptive immune system, and more specifically immunity to the microbiota, however, remain elusive. Here, we identified a novel mechanism for direct neuroimmune communication between commensal-specific T lymphocytes and somatosensory neurons mediated by the neuropeptide calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) in the skin. Intravital imaging revealed that commensal-specific T cells are in close proximity to cutaneous nerve fibers in vivo. Correspondingly, we observed upregulation of the receptor for the neuropeptide CGRP, RAMP1, in CD8+ T lymphocytes induced by skin commensal colonization. Neuroimmune CGRP-RAMP1 signaling axis functions in commensal-specific T cells to constrain Type 17 responses and moderate the activation status of microbiota-reactive lymphocytes at homeostasis. As such, modulation of neuroimmune CGRP-RAMP1 signaling in commensal-specific T cells shapes the overall activation status of the skin epithelium, thereby impacting the outcome of responses to insults such as wounding. The ability of somatosensory neurons to control adaptive immunity to the microbiota via the CGRP-RAMP1 axis underscores the various layers of regulation and multisystem coordination required for optimal microbiota-reactive T cell functions under steady state and pathology.
