Gene expression comparision in the developing striatum between transgenic rats expressing full-length human mutant huntingtin and time-matching controls

ABSTRACT: The mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of HD that result in late, and fatal, neurodegeneration are still not fully understood. The monogenic nature of HD is in contradiction with the complexity of the cellular alterations found in patients with HD. Huntingtin interacts with a broad range of proteins within the cell, and it is altered by the expanded polyglutamine tract. Transcriptional dysregulation is a common finding in genetic models and in human HD patients, and it is thought to play an important role in the disease. Although the onset of the disease is late in life, growing lines of evidence suggest that mHtt causes alterations in development. In this microarray study, the effects of mHtt on the transcriptome were investigated with a full-length human huntingtin (96 CAG repeats) expressing transgenic rat model of HD at an early stage of development (E14).

Mutant huntingtin stalls ribosomes and represses protein synthesis in a cellular model of Huntington disease (mRNA-Seq)

Project description:The polyglutamine expansion of huntingtin (mHtt) causes Huntington disease (HD) and neurodegeneration, but the mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we found that mHtt promotes ribosome stalling and suppresses protein synthesis. Depletion of mHtt enhances protein synthesis and increases the speed of ribosome translocation, while mHtt directly inhibits protein synthesis in vitro. We found interactions of ribosomal proteins and translating ribosomes with mHtt. High-resolution global ribosome footprint profiling (Ribo-Seq) and mRNA-Seq indicated a widespread shift in ribosome occupancy toward the 5’ and 3’ end and unique single-codon pauses on selected mRNA targets in HD cells, compared to controls. Thus, mHtt impedes ribosomal translocation during translation by promoting ribosome stalling, a novel mechanistic defect that can be exploited for HD therapeutics.

Identification of full length wild-type and mutant huntingtin interacting proteins by crosslinking immunoprecipitation in mice brain cortex

Project description:Huntington’s Disease is a neurodegenerative disorder caused by a CAG expansion in exon1 of the huntingtin (Htt) gene. The resulting polyglutamine expansion in the ubiquitously expressed mutant Htt (mHtt) protein leads to selective neurodegeneration. In this study we set out to identify interacting proteins of full length wild-type and mHtt protein in the mice cortex brain region in order to get a better understanding of the processes involved in HD pathology.

Site-Specific Ubiquitination of Pathogenic Huntingtin Attenuates its Deleterious Effects

Project description:Huntington’s disease (HD) is a progressive incurable neurodegenerative disorder characterized by motor and neuropsychiatric symptoms. It is caused by expansion of a CAG triplet in the N-terminal domain of exon 1 in the huntingtin (HTT) gene that codes for an expanded polyglutamine (polyQ) stretch in the protein product which becomes aggregation-prone. The mutant Htt (mHtt) aggregates are associated with components of the Ubiquitin-Proteasome System (UPS), suggesting that mHtt is marked for proteasomal degradation and that for reasons still debated are not properly degraded. We used a novel HD rat model, proteomic analysis, and long-term live neuronal imaging to characterize the effects of ubiquitination on aggregation of mHtt and its subsequent cellular response. We identified two lysine residues - 6 and 9 - in the first exon of mHtt that are specifically ubiquitinated in striatal and cortical brain tissues of mHtt-transgenic animals. Expression of mHtt exon 1 lacking these ubiquitination sites in cortical neurons and cultured cells was found to slow aggregate appearance rates and reduce their size, but at the same time increase the number of much smaller and less visible ones. Importantly, expression of this form of mHtt was associated with elevated death rates. Furthermore, proteomic analysis indicated that compared to cells expressing the protein that can be modified by ubiquitin, cells expressing the lysine-less protein did not activate protein synthetic pathways that enable the cell to cope with stress. Taken together, the findings suggest a novel role for ubiquitination - attenuation of the pathogenic effect of mHtt.

Proteolysis resistant huntingtin isoform induced by antisense oligonucleotide maintains normal huntingtin function in mouse

Project description:Huntington’s disease (HD) is a late onset neurological disorder for which no neuroprotective therapies efficiently delay onset or progression. A key pathological mechanism in disease involves the proteolysis of polyglutamine (polyQ)-expanded mutant huntingtin (mHTT) generating polyQ-containing N-terminal fragments that are crucial contributors to HD pathogenesis since inhibition of the cleavage at the putative caspase-6 site reduces pathology in a HD mouse model. Interestingly, a naturally occurring alternative spliced form of HTT lacking exon12 (HTTΔ12) leads to a protein with an internal deletion of the caspase-6 N-terminal cleavage site. Here, we have taken a multidisciplinary approach to characterize the therapeutic potential of targeting exon12 of HTT. We show that HTTΔ12 is fully resistant to caspase-6 cleavage in both cell-free and tissue lysate assays, while maintaining overall biochemical and structural properties similar to wild-type (wt)-HTT. We generated mouse deleted for exon12 and found that exon12 is dispensable for HTT main physiological functions including embryonic development and intracellular trafficking such as BDNF transport. Finally, we pharmacologically induced HTTΔ12 using an antisense oligonucleotide (ASO). QRX-704 ASO efficiently distributes in the whole brain, is stable several months, and reduces pathogenic proteolysis. Thus, ASO-induced exon12 deletion of HT We performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RNA-seq of brain tissue (cortex and striatum) samples originating from mouse littermates from HttΔ12 (Δ12;KI) and HttKO (KO) lines at 3 month of age.

Foxp2 Overexpression in BACHD mice

Project description:Alterations to corticostriatal glutamatergic function are early pathophysiological changes associated with Huntington?s disease (HD). The factors that regulate the maintenance of corticostriatal glutamatergic synapses post-developmentally are not well understood. Recently, the striatum-enriched transcription factor Foxp2 was implicated in the development of these synapses. Here we show that, in mice, overexpression of Foxp2 in the adult striatum of two models of HD leads to rescue of HD-associated behaviors, while knockdown of Foxp2 in wild-type mice leads to development of HD-associated behaviors. We note that Foxp2 encodes the longest polyglutamine repeat protein in the human reference genome, and we show that it can be sequestered into aggregates with polyglutamine-expanded mutant Huntingtin protein (mHTT). Foxp2 overexpression in HD model mice leads to altered expression of several genes associated with synaptic function, genes which present new targets for normalization of corticostriatal dysfunction in HD.

Polyglutamine-mediated ribotoxicity disrupts proteostasis and stress responses in Huntington’s Disease

Project description:Huntington’s disease (HD) is a neurodegenerative disorder caused by expansion of a CAG trinucleotide repeat in the Huntingtin (HTT) gene, encoding a homopolymeric polyglutamine (polyQ) tract. Although mutant HTT (mHTT) protein is known to aggregate, the links between aggregation and neurotoxicity remain unclear. Here we show that both translation and aggregation of wild-type and mHTT are regulated by a stress-responsive upstream open reading frame, and that polyQ expansions cause abortive translation termination and release of truncated, aggregation-prone mHTT fragments. Notably, we find that mHTT depletes translation elongation factor eIF5A in brains of symptomatic HD mice and cultured HD cells, leading to pervasive ribosome pausing and collisions. Loss of eIF5A disrupts homeostatic controls and impairs recovery from acute stress. Importantly, drugs that inhibit translation initiation reduce premature termination and mitigate this escalating cascade of ribotoxic stress and dysfunction in HD.

Mutant Huntingtin impairs neurodevelopment in human brain organoids through CHCHD2-mediated neurometabolic failure [organoids]

Project description:Expansion of the glutamine tract (poly-Q) in the protein Huntingtin (HTT) causes the neurodegenerative disorder Huntington’s disease (HD). Emerging evidence suggests that mutant HTT (mHTT) disrupts brain development. To gain mechanistic insights into the neurodevelopmental impact of human mHTT, we engineered induced pluripotent stem cells to introduce a 70Q expansion or remove the poly-Q tract of HTT. 70Q introduction caused aberrant development of cerebral organoids with loss of neural progenitor organization. The early neurodevelopmental signature of mHTT highlighted the dysregulation of the protein coiled-coil-helix-coiled-coil-helix domain containing 2 (CHCHD2), which is involved in mitochondrial integrated stress response. CHCHD2 repression was associated with abnormal mitochondrial morpho-dynamics and elevated resting energy expenditure. Elimination of the poly-Q tract of HTT normalized CHCHD2 expression and mitochondrial defects. Hence, mHTT-mediated disruption of human neurodevelopment is paralleled by aberrant neurometabolic programming mediated by dysregulation of CHCHD2, which could then serve as an early intervention target for HD.
