Project description:This experiment set is used for the manuscript entitled: Pharmacogenomics of Interferon-b therapy in multiple sclerosis: Baseline IFN signature determines pharmacological differences between patients. In this study we generated and analyzed pre- and post- IFNb treatment gene expression patterns of RRMS patients with the aim of identifying pre-existing and/or drug-induced signatures that will allow us to make predictions on the expected pharmacological effects of IFNb treatment. We show that the expression level of IFN response genes prior to treatment, determines the pharmacological differences between patients with MS at the molecular level. A group of 16 Dutch patients (10 females and 6 males) with clinically definite relapsing-remitting MS was recruited from the outpatient clinic of the MS Centre Amsterdam. Mean age at start of IFNb therapy is 40.6 +/- 7.7, mean EDSS is 2.3 +/- 1.3 (range 1-6). Blood samples were obtained just before treatment and 1 month after start of the therapy. Patients received Avonex, Betaferon, Rebif 22 or Rebif 44. A compound treatment design type is where the response to administration of a compound or chemical (including biological compounds such as hormones) is assayed.

Project description:Lyme disease is caused by infection with Borrelia burgdorferi, with a spectrum of clinical disorders. Murine studies with B6 and C3H mice have demonstrated that genetic differences in the host response play an essential role in regulating the severity of Lyme arthritis. C3H mice generate a robust induction of type I IFN response in joint tissue at one week of infection which leads to severe Lyme arthritis at 4 weeks post-infection, while B6 mice develop mild disease without a type I IFN profile. We used a forward genetic approach and identified B. burgdorferi arthritis- associated locus 1 (Bbaa1) on Chr4, which includes type I IFN cluster. B6.C3-Bbaa1 congenic mice display more severe Lyme arthritis than B6 mice. The blocking of type I IFN receptor and the IFNb subtype in Bbaa1 mice suppressed arthritis back to B6 level, so we concluded the Bbaa1 locus intrinsically controls IFNb production, and the differential expression of IFNb controls the severity of Lyme arthritis. However, the IFNb genes of C3H and B6 mice are identical, prompting focus on other genetic factors within the Bbaa1 locus as regulators of IFNb. Reciprocal radiation chimeras between B6.C3-Bbaa1 and B6 mice revealed myeloid cells in the joint tissue as IFNb initiators. Advanced congenic lines were generated to reduce the genetic contribution from C3H Bbaa1 region. RNA-seq of bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) from B6 and advanced interval specific recombinant congenic lines, ISRCL3 and ISRCL4, revealed novel candidates that may regulate Ifnb. In this study, we identify the Cdkn2a gene encoded ARF as a critical regulator of IFNb mediated Lyme arthritis, and investigate mechanistic interactions that modulate IFNb expression in Lyme arthritis development.

Project description:Affymetrix gene expression analysis was carried out to investigate the differences in gene profile of MBP89-101-reactive encephalitogenic T cells before and after co-culture with cerebellar granular neurons (CGNs). Co-culture of MBP89-101-reactive encephalitogenic T cells with CGNs leads to generation of T cells with regulatory T cells phenotype (CD4+CD25+membrane bound TGF-b+ T cells) or a new regulatory phenotype (CD4highPD-L1high T cells). CGN-induced CD4+CD25+membrane bound TGF-b+ T regulatory cells, CD4highPD-L1high T cells were purified by FACSAria. IFN-beta induced T lymphocytes (CD4highPD-L1high T cells) were also FACSAria purified. All these populations were compared to MBP89-101-reactive encephalitogenic T cells. Samples were prepared from biological triplicates for each FACSAria sorted population. There are four different cell types, as determined by cell surface markers, in triplicate in the experiment.

Project description:To fully understand cell type identity and function in the nervous system there is a need to understand neuronal gene expression at the level of isoform diversity. Here we applied Next Generation Sequencing of the transcriptome (RNA-Seq) to purified sensory neurons and cerebellar granular neurons (CGNs) grown on an axonal growth permissive substrate. The goal of the analysis was to uncover neuronal type specific isoforms as a prelude to understanding patterns of gene expression underlying their intrinsic growth abilities. Global gene expression patterns were comparable to those found for other cell types, in that a vast majority of genes were expressed at low abundance. Nearly 18% of gene loci produced more than one transcript. More than 8000 isoforms were differentially expressed, either to different degrees in different neuronal types or uniquely expressed in one or the other. Sensory neurons expressed a larger number of genes and gene isoforms than did CGNs. To begin to understand the mechanisms responsible for the differential gene/isoform expression we identified transcription factor binding sites present specifically in the upstream genomic sequences of differentially expressed isoforms, and analyzed the 3’ untranslated regions (3’ UTRs) for microRNA (miRNA) target sites. Our analysis defines isoform diversity for two neuronal types with diverse axon growth capabilities and begins to illuminate the complex transcriptional landscape in two neuronal populations. RNA was sequenced from cultured peripheral neurons of the dorsal root ganglia (DRG neurons) and cerebellar granular neurons (CGNs) of the central nervous system

Project description:IFNb has been used as a first line therapy for relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS). Since only a few studies have addressed the role of endogenous IFNb in the pathogenesis of the disease, our objective was to characterize its role in the transcriptional regulation of pathogenic Th17 cytokines in patients with RRMS. In-vitro studies have demonstrated that IFNb inhibited IL-17A, IL-17F, IL-21, IL-22 and IFN-b secretion in CD4+ lymphocytes through the induction of suppressor of cytokine secretion (SOCS)1 and 3. We found that patients with RRMS have increased serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) Th17 (IL-17A and IL-17F) cytokine levels in comparison to the control subjects, suggesting that deficient endogenous IFNbeta secretion and/or signaling may contribute to the dysregulation of those pathogenic cytokines in CD4+ cells. We identified that the endogenous IFNb from serum of RRMS patients induced a significantly lower IFN-inducible gene expression in comparison to healthy controls (HCs). In addition, in-vitro studies have revealed a deficient endogenous and exogenous IFNb signaling in CD4+ cells derived from MS patients. Interestingly, upon inhibition of the endogenous IFNb signaling by silencing interferon regulatory factor (IRF)7 gene expression, the resting CD4+ T cells secreted significantly higher level of IL-17A, IL-17F, IL-21, IL-22 and IL-9, suggesting that endogenous IFNb suppresses the secretion of these pathogenic cytokines. In-vivo recombinant IFNb-1a treatment induced IFNAR1 and its downstream signaling molecules’ gene expression, suggesting that treatment may reconstitute a deficient endogenous IFNbeta regulation of the CD4+ T-cells’ pathogenic cytokine production in MS patients.

Project description:The specific binding of transcription factors to cognate sequence elements is thought to be critical for the generation of specific gene expression programs. The transcription factors nuclear factor kB (NF-kB) and the interferon (IFN) regulatory factors (IRFs) bind to the kB site and the interferon response element (IRE), respectively, of target genes, and they are activated in macrophages after exposure to pathogens. However, how these factors produce pathogen-specific inflammatory and immune responses remains poorly understood. Combining top-down and bottom-up systems biology approaches, we have identified the NF-kB p50 homodimer (p50:p50) as a regulator of IRF responses. First, unbiased genome-wide expression analysis revealed that p50 repressed a subset of IFN-inducible genes through a previously uncharacterized subclass of guanine-rich IRE (G-IRE) sequences, which was substantiated by biochemical and structural analyses. Second, mathematical modeling predicted that p50:p50 might enforce the stimulus-specificity of composite promoters. Indeed, the production of the antiviral regulator IFN-b was rendered stimulus-specific by the binding of p50:p50 to the G-IRE–containing IFNb enhancer to suppress cytotoxic IFN signaling. Specifically, a deficiency in p50 resulted in the inappropriate production of IFN-b in response to bacterial DNA sensed by Toll-like receptor 9. This role for NF-kB p50 in enforcing the specificity of the cellular response to pathogens by binding to a previously uncharacterized subset of IRE sequences alters our understanding of how the NF-kB and IRF signaling systems cooperate to regulate antimicrobial immunity.

Project description:Parkinson disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disease believed to initiate in the brainstem and then spread throughout the brain. The mechanism by which this occurs is not yet fully understood, but here we show that damaged mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) plays an important role in this process, which can be initiated by dysregulation of the IFNb/IFNAR signalling pathway. We report that lack of neuronal IFNb/IFNAR, which is associated to the development of PD, causes oxidization, mutation, and deletion in mtDNA. Damaged mtDNA is subsequently extruded extracellularly and can induce PD symptoms like motor and cognitive impairments in healthy mouse brains. It even leads to neurodegeneration in brain regions far from the injection site, suggesting that damaged mtDNA triggers the propagation of PD hallmarks through the brain. We further show that the mechanism by which damaged mtDNA causes pathology in healthy neurons is independent of cGAS and IFNb/IFNAR, but it is mediated by activation of dual Toll-like receptor (TLR)4/9 pathways. Through a proteomic analysis of extracellular vesicles containing the damaged mtDNA, we identified the TLR4 activator Ribosomal Protein S3 (Rps3) and established that Rps3 is a key effector protein involved in damaged mtDNA extrusion and recognition. Collectively, these results reveal a new molecular pathway by which damaged mtDNA can initiate and propagate Parkinson's Disease, paving the way for potential new therapies or disease monitoring.
