Project description:Background: Parkinson's disease (PD), a neurodegenerative disease characterised by bradykinesia, rest tremor and rigidit, affects approximately 6.1 million people worldwide. Although its aetiology was attributed to accumulation of misfolded alpha-synuclein species and subsequent loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra, recently, systemic factors contributing to its initiation and progression have gained increasing recognition. Specifically, exosomes, a kind of extracellular vesicles in the size range of ∼30 to ∼200 nm, have been highlighted as crucial mediators in orchestrating the intricate intercellular communication in PD. Among its cargos, miRNAs, with its ability to promote target mRNA degradation and inihibit translation, have been identiifed as promising biomarkers and therpaeutic targets. Nonetheless, the effect of anti-parkinsonism medication on the serum exosome miRNA profiles of PD patients remain lagrely unexplored. Objective: To examine the effects of rasagiline, a potentially neuroprotective monoamine oxidase B inihibitor, on the serum exosome miRNA profile of PD patients.

Project description:Background: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a demyelinating autoimmune disease of the central nervous system and the leading cause of lasting neurological disabilities in young adults. Increasing evidence suggests that early treatment prevents the development of disability. However, there have been no reliable serum markers to assist the early diagnosis. In addition, interferon (IFN)-β, which is the major treatment for MS, is not always effective. Therefore, the development of simple serological test to help the early diagnosis and predict responsiveness to IFN-β is of clinical importance. On the other hand, a transmembrane-type semaphorin, Sema4A, has been implicated in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) by regulating helper T (Th) cell differentiation. Thus, we aimed to identify the implications of Sema4A in diagnosis and pathogenesis of MS. Methods: We assayed serum Sema4A in 59 patients with relapsing-remitting MS (RRMS), 22 patients with clinically isolated syndrome (CIS) and 126 patients with other neurological diseases (OND) by developing a sandwich ELISA. To identify a source of soluble Sema4A and characteristics of MS patients with high levels of Sema4A, we analyzed peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from MS patients and healthy controls by flow cytometry (FACS) and gene chip analysis. The effect of Sema4A was examined in vitro and in vivo using an EAE model. Findings: Sema4A was significantly increased in sera of patients with MS and CIS compared to controls. Sema4A expression was increased on the surface of DCs in MS patients and shed from these cells in a metalloproteinase-dependent manner, affecting the Th17skewing. In addition, patients with high Sema4A levels exhibited more severe disabilities, and IFN-β treatment was not beneficial to those patients. Interpretation: Measuring Sema4A is a practical laboratory test to help diagnose MS and to predict responsiveness to IFN-β therapy. Microarray analysis showed that metalloproteinases such as ADAM 10 and MMPs 1, 3, 9, 12 and 25, which are reported to be involved in the pathogenesis of MS, were increased in PBMCs from MS patients with high Sema4A levels compared to those with low Sema4A and healthy controls. However, ADAM 17 and MMP 2 and 7 did not correlate with Sema4A levels. Taken together, these findings strongly suggest that Sema4A, abundantly expressed on monocytes and DCs in MS patients, is enzymatically cleaved and shed in a portion of the patients, which contributes to the high soluble Sema4A detected by the ELISA. Multiple sclerosis patients were classified according to Serum Sema4A levels. RNA from peripheral blood from 4 healthy controls, 3 MS patients with high serum Sema4A levels and 3 MS patients with low serum Sema4A levels was extracted and hybridized on Affymetrix microarrays. We sought to see whether there is corrlated genes with serum Sema4A levels or not, especially for genes for varions proteases.

Project description:MicroRNAs are small noncoding RNA molecules that are involved in the control of gene expression. To investigate the role of microRNA in multiple sclerosis (MS), we performed global microarray analyses of mRNA and microRNA in peripheral blood T-cells from relapsing-remitting MS patients and controls. We identified 2,452 regulated genes and 21 regulated microRNA that differed between MS patients and controls. By Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, 20 of 21 regulated microRNA were shown to affect the expression of their target genes, many of which are involved in the immune system. LIGHT (TNFSF14) was a microRNA target gene significantly decreased in MS. The down-regulation of mir-494 and predicted mRNA-target LIGHT was verified by real-time PCR and we could demonstrate decreased serum levels of LIGHT in MS. Thus, regulated microRNA were significantly associated with both gene and protein expression of a molecule in immunological pathways. These findings indicate that microRNA may be important regulatory molecules in T-cells in MS. Microarray expression analysis of mRNA and miRNA in peripheral blood T-cell of control and MS patients
