Inflammatory responses revealed through HIV infection of microglia-containing cerebral organoids

ABSTRACT: Cerebral organoids (COs) are valuable tools for studying the intricate interplay between glial cells and neurons in brain development and disease, including HIV-associated neuroinflammation. We developed a novel approach to generate microglia containing COs (CO-iMs) by coculturing hematopoietic progenitors and inducing pluripotent stem cells from the same line. This approach allowed for the differentiation of microglia within the organoids concomitantly with the neuronal progenitors. Compared with conventional COs, CO-iMs were more efficient at generating CD45+/CD11b+/Iba-1+ microglia and presented a physiologically relevant proportion of microglia (~7%). CO-iMs presented substantially increased expression of microglial homeostatic and sensome markers as well as markers for the complement cascade. CO-iMs are susceptible to HIV infection, resulting in a significant increase in several pro-inflammatory cytokines/chemokines and compromised neuronal functions, which are abrogated by the addition of antiretrovirals. Thus, CO-iM is a robust model for deciphering neuropathogenesis, neurological disorders, and viral infections of brain cells in a 3D culture system.

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.

Aberrant cortical layer development of brain organoids developed from Noonan syndrome-iPSCs

Project description:Noonan syndrome (NS) is a genetic disorder mainly caused by gain-of-function mutations of SHP2. Although diverse neurological manifestations are commonly diagnosed in NS patients, mechanisms on how the SHP2 mutation induces the neurodevelopmental defects remain elusive. Here, we report that cortical organoids (NS-COs) derived from NS-induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) exhibit developmental abnormalities, especially in excitatory neurons (ENs). Although NS-COs normally develop in appearance, single-cell transcriptomic analysis represented increment of EN population and overexpression of cortical layer markers in NS-COs. Surprisingly, EN subpopulation co-expressing upper layer marker SATB2 and deep layer maker CTIP2 was enriched in NS-COs during the cortical development. In parallel with the developmental disruptions, NS-COs also exhibited reduced synaptic connectivity. Collectively, our findings suggest that perturbed cortical layer identity and impeded neuronal connectivity account for the neurological manifestations of NS.

Dysregulated neuroimmune interactions and sustained type I interferon signaling after human immunodeficiency virus type 1 infection of human iPSC derived microglia and cerebral organoids

Project description:Human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) associated neurocognitive disorder (HAND) affects up to half of HIV-1 positive patients with long term neurological consequences, including dementia. There are no effective therapeutics for HAND because the pathophysiology of HIV-1 induced glial and neuronal functional deficits in humans remains enigmatic. To bridge this knowledge gap, we established a model simulating HIV-1 infection in the central nervous system using human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) derived microglia combined with sliced neocortical organoids. Upon incubation with two replication-competent macrophage-tropic HIV-1 strains (JRFL and YU2), we observed that microglia not only became productively infected but also exhibited inflammatory activation. RNA sequencing revealed a significant and sustained activation of type I interferon signaling pathways. Incorporating microglia into sliced neocortical organoids extended the effects of aberrant type I interferon signaling in a human neural context. Collectively, our results illuminate the role of persistent type I interferon signaling in HIV-1 infected microglial in a human neural model, suggesting its potential significance in the pathogenesis of HAND.

Restoring a homeostatic microglia state by combination antiretroviral therapy in SIV-infected rhesus macaques

Project description:Although modern therapies like cART have transformed HIV from a lethal disease to a manageable condition, associated neurocognitive consequences remain a concern. Paradoxically, microglia and macrophages, which comprise the innate defense system in the brain and are crucial for CNS homeostasis, are targets for HIV and key players in its neuropathogenesis. In addition, these infected cells can serve as viral reservoirs even in effectively treated infection. Here using an scRNA-seq approach in the SIV-NHP model, we demonstrate differential transcriptional programs in brain myeloid cells from monkeys under four conditions: uninfected, chronically SIV-infected, chronically SIV-infected treated with combination antiretroviral therapy (cART), and SIVE. Our study reveals alterations in composition (both lineage and gene expression profiles) of the cell populations between groups. Importantly, treatment with cART largely restored the homeostatic microglia profile present in uninfected animals that was disrupted in SIV-infected untreated animals

Neuroinflammation and EIF2 signaling persist despite antiretroviral treatment in an HiPSC tri-culture model of HIV infection [scRNA-seq]

Project description:HIV-Associated Neurocognitive Disorders (HAND) affect over half of HIV-infected individuals, despite antiretroviral therapy (ART). Therapeutically targetable mechanisms underlying HAND remain elusive, partly due to a lack of a proper model. We developed a human-induced pluripotent stem cell (HiPSC) based model, independently differentiating HiPSCs into neurons, astrocytes, and microglia, and systematically combining to generate a tri-culture with or without HIV-infection and ART. Single cell RNAseq analysis on tri-cultures with HIV-infected microglia revealed inflammatory signatures in the microglia and EIF2 signaling in all three cell types. Treatment with the antiretroviral compound EFZ mostly resolved these signatures. However, EFZ increased RhoGDI and CD40 signaling in the HIV-infected microglia. This activation was associated with a persistent increase in TNFa production by microglia. This work establishes a tri-culture that recapitulates key features of HIV infection in the CNS and provides a new model to examine the effects of infection, its treatment, and other co-morbid conditions.

Genomic DNA sequences of recombinant F2 individuals from an Arabidopsis thaliana Col X Ler cross

Project description:Many environmental, genetic, and epigenetic factors are known to affect the frequency and positioning of meiotic crossovers (COs). Suppression of COs by large, cytologically visible inversions and translocations has long been recognized, but relatively little is known about how smaller structural variants (SVs) affect COs. To examine fine-scale determinants of the CO landscape, including SVs, we used a rapid, cost-effective method for high-throughput sequencing to generate a precise map of over 17,000 COs between the Col-0 and Ler accessions of Arabidopsis thaliana. COs were generally suppressed in regions with SVs, but this effect did not depend on the size of the variant region, and was only marginally affected by the variant type. CO suppression did not extend far beyond the SV borders, and CO rates were slightly elevated in the flanking regions. Disease resistance gene clusters, which often exist as SVs, exhibited high CO rates at some loci, but there was a tendency toward depressed CO rates at loci where large structural differences exist between the two parents. Our high-density map also revealed in fine detail how CO positioning relates to genetic (DNA motifs) and epigenetic (chromatin structure) features of the genome. We conclude that suppression of COs occurs over a narrow region spanning large and small-scale SVs, representing influence on the CO landscape in addition to sequence and epigenetic variation along chromosomes.

Glioblastoma and Cerebral Organoids: Development and Analysis of in vitro Model for Glioblastoma Migration

Project description:It is currently challenging to adequately model the growth and migration of glioblastoma using 2D in vitro culture systems as they quickly lose the original, patient-specific identity and heterogeneity. However, with the advent of 3D cell cultures and human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs)-derived cerebral organoids (COs), studies demonstrate that the glioblastoma-cerebral organoid (GLICO) co-culture model helps to preserve the phenotype of the patient-specific tissue. Here we aimed to set up such a model using mature COs and develop a pipeline for subsequent analysis of co-cultured glioblastoma. Our data demonstrates that the growth and migration of the glioblastoma cell line within the mature COs are significantly increased in the presence of extracellular matrix proteins, shortening the time needed for glioblastoma to initiate migration. We also describe in detail the method for the visualization and quantification of these migrating cells within the GLICO model. Lastly, we show that this co-culture model (and the human brain-like microenvironment) can significantly transform the gene expression profile of the established U87 glioblastoma cell line into proneural and classical glioblastoma cell types.

The VCAM1–ApoE pathway directs microglial chemotaxis and alleviates Alzheimer’s disease pathology

Project description:In Alzheimer’s disease (AD), sensome receptor dysfunction impairs microglial danger-associated molecular pattern (DAMP) clearance and exacerbates disease pathology. While extrinsic signals including interleukin-33 (IL-33) can restore microglial DAMP clearance, it remains largely unclear how the sensome receptor(s) is regulated and interacts with DAMP during phagocytic clearance. Here, we show that IL-33 induces VCAM1 in microglia, which promotes microglial chemotaxis toward amyloid-beta (Aβ) plaque-associated ApoE, and leads to Aβ clearance. We show that IL-33 stimulates a chemotactic state in microglia, characterized by Aβ-directed migration. Functional screening identified that VCAM1 directs microglial Aβ chemotaxis by sensing Aβ plaque-associated ApoE. Moreover, we found that disrupting VCAM1–ApoE interaction abolishes microglial Aβ chemotaxis, resulting in decreased microglial clearance of Aβ. In patients with AD, higher cerebrospinal fluid levels of soluble VCAM1 were correlated with impaired microglial Aβ chemotaxis. Together, our findings demonstrate that promoting VCAM1–ApoE-dependent microglial functions ameliorates AD pathology.
