Activating injury-responsive genes with hypoxia enhances axon regeneration through neuronal HIF-1α

ABSTRACT: Injured peripheral neurons successfully activate a pro-regenerative transcriptional program to enable axon regeneration and functional recovery. How transcriptional regulators coordinate the expression of such programs remains unclear. Here we show that hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) controls multiple injury-induced genes in sensory neurons and contribute to the pre-conditioning lesion effect. Knockdown of HIF-1α in vitro or conditional knockout in vivo impairs sensory axon regeneration. The HIF-1α target gene Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor A (VEGFA) is expressed in injured neurons and contributes to stimulate axon regeneration. Induction of HIF-1α using hypoxia enhances axon regeneration in vitro and in vivo in sensory neurons. Hypoxia also stimulates motor neuron regeneration and accelerates neuromuscular junction reinnervation. This study demonstrates that HIF-1α represents a critical transcriptional regulator in regenerating neurons and suggests hypoxia as a tool to stimulate axon regeneration.

Rat motor and sensory nerve LC-MSMS

Project description:Peripheral nerve repair and functional recovery depend on the rate of nerve regeneration and the quality of target reinnervation. It is important to fully understand the cellular and molecular basis underlying the specificity of peripheral nerve regeneration, which means the achieving of respective correct pathfinding and accurate target reinnervation for regrowing motor and sensory axons. In this study, a quantitative proteomic technique, based on isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ) was used to profile the protein expression pattern between single motor and sensory nerves at 14 days after peripheral nerve transection. Among a total of 1259 proteins identified, 176 proteins showed the differential expressions between injured motor and sensory nerves. Quantitative real-time RT-PCR and Western blot analysis were applied to validate the proteomic data on representative differentially expressed proteins. Functional categorization indicated that differentially expressed proteins were linked to a diverse array of molecular functions, including axonogenesis, response to axon injury, tissue remodeling, axon ensheathment, cell proliferation and adhesion, vesicle-mediated transport, response to oxidative stress, internal signal cascade, and macromolecular complex assembly, which might play an essential role in peripheral motor and sensory nerve regeneration. Overall, we hope that the proteomic database obtained in this study could serve as a solid foundation for the comprehensive investigation of differentially expressed proteins between injured motor and sensory nerves and for the mechanism elucidation of the specificity of peripheral nerve regeneration.

RNA-sequencing of injured cultured dorsal root ganglion neurons over time

Project description:Injured sensory neurons activate a transcriptional program necessary for robust axon regeneration and eventual target reinnervation. Understanding the transcriptional regulators that govern this axon regenerative response may guide therapeutic strategies to promote axon regeneration in the injured nervous system. Here, we used cultured dorsal root ganglia neurons to identify pro-regenerative transcription factors. Using RNA sequencing, we first characterized this neuronal culture and determined that embryonic day 13.5 DRG (eDRG) neurons cultured for 7 days are similar to e15.5 DRG neurons in vivo and that all neuronal subtypes are represented. This eDRG neuronal culture does not contain other non-neuronal cell types. Next, we performed RNA sequencing at different time points after in vitro axotomy. Analysis of differentially expressed genes revealed upregulation of know regeneration associated transcription factors, including Jun Atf3 and Rest, paralleling the axon injury response in vivo. Analysis of transcription factor binding sites in differentially expressed genes revealed other known transcription factors promoting axon regeneration, such as Myc, Hif1a, Pparg, Ascl1a, Srf, as well as other transcription factors not yet characterized in axon regeneration. We next tested if overexpression of known and novel candidate transcription factors alone or in combination promote axon regeneration in vitro. Our results demonstrate that expression of Ctcf with Yy1 or E2f2 enhances in vitro axon regeneration. Our analysis reveals that pairs of transcription factors can functionally synergize to promote axon regeneration and highlight that transcription factor interaction play an important role as a regulator of axon regeneration.

miRNA-9 regulates axon regeneration through the transcriptional regulator REST and the epigenetic factor UHRF1 [RNA-seq]

Project description:Injured sensory neurons successfully activate a pro-regenerative transcriptional program to enable axon regeneration and functional recovery, but the roles of genes that are inactivated after injury remain poorly understood. Analysis of the miRNA expression profile triggered by axon injury revealed down-regulation of the neural development associated miRNA, miR-9. A target of miR-9 is the critical epigenetic regulator involved in DNA methylation, ubiquitin-like containing PHD ring finger 1 (UHRF1), which increased after injury to promote axon regeneration. UHRF1 is known to repress the transcription of tumor suppressor genes through DNA methylation and we show that UHRF1 interacts with DNMT1 to methylate the promoter region of the tumor suppressors PTEN and CDKN1A, thereby triggering their inactivation. We also reveal that UHRF1 represses the transcriptional regulator REST. Our findings define an epigenetic mechanism that silences the transcription of axon growth suppressors to promote axon regeneration in sensory neurons.

Metronomic doxorubicin blocks HIF-1α-mediated responses in sarcomas and augments the effects of anti-VEGF-A therapy

Project description:Increased levels of hypoxia and hypoxia inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) in human sarcomas correlate with tumor progression and radiation resistance. Prolonged anti-angiogenic therapy of tumors can delay tumor growth but may also increase hypoxia and HIF-1α activity. In our recent clinical trial, treatment with the anti-vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A) antibody, bevacizumab, followed by a combination of bevacizumab and radiation led to near complete necrosis in nearly half of sarcomas. Gene set enrichment analysis of microarrays from pre-treatment biopsies found the Gene Ontology category “Response to hypoxia” was upregulated in poor responders, and hierarchical clustering based on 140 hypoxia-responsive genes separated poor responders from good responders. The most commonly used chemotherapeutic drug for sarcomas, doxorubicin (Dox), was recently found to block HIF-1α binding to DNA at low metronomic doses. We thus examined Dox treatment in 4 sarcoma cell lines, and found Dox at low concentrations (1-10 uM) blocked HIF-1α induction of VEGF-A by 84-97%, while inhibition of other HIF-1α-target genes including CA9, c-Met and FOXM1 was variable. HT1080 sarcoma xenografts had increased hypoxia and/or HIF-1α activity with increasing tumor size and with anti-VEGF receptor antibody (DC101) treatment. Combining DC101 and metronomic Dox had a synergistic effect in suppressing growth of HT1080 xenografts, primarily via induction of tumor endothelial cell apoptosis. In conclusion, sarcomas respond to increased hypoxia by expressing HIF-1α-target genes which may promote resistance to anti-angiogenic and other therapies. Metronomic Dox can block HIF-1α activation of target genes and works synergistically with anti-VEGF therapy to inhibit sarcomas. Pre-treatment biopsies were collected from 16 human sarcoma. The gene expression analysis was performed using Illumina platform.

scRNAseq analysis of mouse L4 whole dorsal root ganglions with and without sciatic nerve crush injury

Project description:Peripheral sensory neurons with cell body in dorsal root ganglia (DRG) switch to a regenerative state after nerve injury to enable axon regeneration and functional recovery. Studies of nerve injury responses in sensory neurons have revealed signaling and transcriptional mechanisms that increase their intrinsic regenerative capacity. However, the extent to which satellite glial cells (SGC), which completely surround the neuronal soma contribute to these responses remains unexplored. Using single cell RNA-seq, we defined the transcriptional profile of SGC in naïve and injured conditions and identified Fabp7, also known as BLBP, as a novel marker of SGC. We report that nerve injury elicits gene expression changes in SGC, which are mostly related to lipid metabolism, specifically fatty acid synthesis and the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) signaling. Conditional deletion of Fatty acid synthase (Fasn), the key enzyme in de novo fatty acid synthesis, specifically in SGC, impairs axon regeneration. Treatment with fenofibrate, a PPARa agonist, rescues the impaired regeneration, suggesting that PPRAa, which belongs to a family of lipid regulated transcription factors, functions downstream of fatty acid synthesis in SGC to promote axon regeneration. These results unravel fatty acid synthesis in SGC as a fundamental novel mechanism mediating axon regeneration in mature peripheral nerves.

Sensory neurons display cell-type specific vulnerability to loss of neuron-glia interactions

Project description:PNS injuries initiate transcriptional changes in glial cells and sensory neurons that promote axonal regeneration. While the factors that initiate the transcriptional changes in glial cells are well characterized, the full range of stimuli that initiate the response of sensory neurons remain elusive. Here, using a genetic model of glial cell ablation, we find that glial cell loss results in transient PNS demyelination without overt axonal loss. By profiling sensory ganglia at single-cell resolution we show that glial cell loss induces a transcriptional injury response preferentially in proprioceptive and Aβ RA-LTMR neurons. The transcriptional response of sensory neurons to mechanical injury has been assumed to be a cell autonomous response. By identifying a similar response in non-injured, demyelinated neurons, our study suggests that this represents a non-cell autonomous transcriptional response of sensory neurons to the loss of axon-glial cell interactions.
