Using brain cell type-specific protein interactomes to interpret genetic data in schizophrenia

ABSTRACT: Hsu Y, Nacu E, Liu R, Kim A, Tsafou K, Petrossian N, Crotty W, Suh JM, Pintacuda G, Riseman J, Martin J, Malolepsza E, Li T, Singh T, Ge T, Egri SB, Tanenbaum B, Stanclift CR, Apffel AM, Schizophrenia Working Group of the Psychiatric Genomics Consortium, Stanley Global Asia Initiatives, Carr SA, Schenone M, Jaffe J, Fornelos N, Huang H, Eggan KC, Lage K. 2021. Genetics have nominated many schizophrenia risk genes that lack functional interpretation. To empower such interpretation, we executed interaction proteomics for six risk genes in human induced neurons and found the resulting protein network to be enriched for common variant risk of schizophrenia in Europeans and East Asians. The network is down-regulated in layer 5/6 cortical neurons of patients and can complement fine-mapping and eQTL data to prioritize additional genes in GWAS loci. A sub-network centered on HCN1 is enriched for common variant risk and also contains proteins (HCN4 and AKAP11) enriched for rare protein-truncating mutations in patients with schizophrenia and bipolar disease. Our findings establish brain cell-type-specific interactomes as an organizing framework to facilitate interpretation of genetic and transcriptomic data in schizophrenia and psychiatric diseases.

Interaction studies of risk proteins in human induced neurons reveal convergent biology and novel mechanisms underlying autism spectrum disorders

Project description:Pintacuda G, Hsu YH, Tsafou K, Li KW, Martin JM, Riseman J, Biagini JC, Ching JKT, Gonzalez-Lozano MA, Egri SB, Jaffe JD, Smit AB, Fornelos N, Eggan KC, Lage K. 2022. Sequencing studies of autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) have identified numerous risk genes with enriched expression in the human brain, but it is still unclear how these genes converge into cell type-specific networks and how their encoded proteins mechanistically contribute to ASDs. To address this question, we performed brain cell type-specific interaction proteomics to build a protein-protein interaction network for 13 ASD risk genes in human excitatory neurons derived from iPS cells. The network contains many (>90%) interactions not reported in the literature and is enriched for transcriptionally perturbed genes observed in layer 2/3 cortical neurons of ASD patients, indicating that it can be explored for ASD-relevant biological discovery. We leveraged the network dataset to show that the brain-specific isoform of ANK2 is important for its interactions with synaptic proteins and characterized a PTEN-AKAP8L interaction that influences neuronal growth through the mTOR pathway. The IGF2BP1-3 complex emerges as a point of convergence in the network, and we showed that this complex is involved in a transcriptional circuit concentrating both common and rare variant risk of ASDs. Finally, we found the network itself enriched for ASD rare variant risk, indicating that it can complement genetic datasets for prioritizing additional risk genes. Our findings establish brain cell type-specific interactomes as an organizing framework to facilitate interpretation of genetic and transcriptomic data in ASDs and illustrate how both individual and convergent interactions lead to biological insights into the disease.

A role for non-coding variation in schizophrenia

Project description:A large portion of common variant loci associated with genetic risk for schizophrenia reside within non-coding sequence of unknown function. Here, we demonstrate promoter and enhancer enrichment in schizophrenia variants associated with expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL). The enrichment is greater when functional annotations derived from human brain are used relative to peripheral tissues. Regulatory trait concordance analysis ranked genes within schizophrenia genome-wide significant loci, based on co-localization of a risk SNP, eQTL and regulatory element sequence. These include physical interactions of non-contiguous gene-proximal and distal elements bypassing the linear genome, which was verified in prefrontal cortex and human induced pluripotent stem cell derived neurons for the L-type calcium channel (CACNA1C) risk locus. Our findings point to a functional link between schizophrenia-associated non-coding SNPs and 3-dimensional genome architecture associated with chromosomal loopings and transcriptional regulation in the brain.

Transcriptional changes following cellular knockdown of the schizophrenia risk gene SETD1A are enriched for common variant association with the disorder

Project description:Loss of function mutations in SETD1A are the first experiment-wide significant findings to emerge from exome sequencing studies of schizophrenia. Although SETD1A is known to encode a histone methyltransferase, the consequences of reduced SETD1A activity on gene expression in neural cells have, to date, been unknown. To explore transcriptional changes through which genetic perturbation of SETD1A could confer risk for schizophrenia, we have performed genome-wide gene expression profiling of a commonly used human neuroblastoma cell line in which SETD1A expression has been experimentally reduced using RNA interference (RNAi). We identified 1031 gene expression changes that were significant in two separate RNAi conditions compared with control, including effects on genes of known neurodevelopmental importance such as DCX and DLX5. Genes that were differentially expressed following SETD1A knockdown were enriched for annotation to metabolic pathways, peptidase regulator activity and integrin-mediated regulation of cell adhesion. Moreover, differentially expressed were enriched for common variant association with schizophrenia, suggesting a degree of molecular convergence between this rare schizophrenia risk factor and susceptibility variants for the disorder operating more generally.

The INO80E at 16p11.2 locus increases risk of schizophrenia in humans and induces schizophrenia-like phenotypes in mice

Project description:Background Chromosome 16p11.2 is one of the most significant loci in the genome-wide association study (GWAS) of schizophrenia. Despite several integrative analyses and functional genomics studies have been carried out to identify possible risk genes, their impacts in the pathogenesis of schizophrenia remain to be fully characterized. Methods We performed expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) and summary-data-based Mendelian randomization (SMR) analyses to identify schizophrenia risk genes in the 16p11.2 GWAS locus. We constructed the murine model with dysregulated expression of risk gene in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) using stereotaxic injection of Adeno-associated Virus (AAV), followed by behavioral assessments, dendritic spine analyses and RNA sequencing. Findings We identified significant associations between elevated INO80E mRNA expression in frontal cortex and risk of schizophrenia. The mice overexpressing Ino80e in mPFC (Ino80e-OE) exhibited schizophrenia-like behaviors, including increased anxiety behavior, anhedonia, and impaired prepulse inhibition (PPI) when compared with control group. The neuronal sparse labeling assay showed that the density of mushroom spines in the pyramidal neurons of mPFC was significantly decreased in Ino80e-OE mice compared with control mice, accompanied by a notable increase in the density of stubby spines. Transcriptomic analysis in the mPFC revealed significant alterations in the mRNA levels of schizophrenia-related genes and processes related to synapses upon overexpressing Ino80e . Interpretation Our results suggest that upregulation of the Ino80e gene in mPFC may induce schizophrenia-like behaviors in mice, further supporting the hypothesis that INO80E is an authentic risk gene.

Social isolation-induced transcriptomic changes in mouse hippocampus impact the synapse and show convergence with human genetic risk for neurodevelopmental phenotypes

Project description:Early life stress (ELS) can impact brain development and is a risk factor for neurodevelopmental disorders such as schizophrenia. Post-weaning social isolation (SI) is used to model ELS in animals, using isolation stress to disrupt a normal developmental trajectory. We aimed to investigate how SI affects the expression of genes in mouse hippocampus and to investigate how these changes related to the genetic basis of neurodevelopmental phenotypes. BL/6J mice were exposed to post-weaning SI (PD21-25) or treated as group-housed controls (n = 7-8 per group). RNA sequencing was performed on tissue samples from the hippocampus of adult male and female mice. Four hundred and 1,215 differentially-expressed genes (DEGs) at a false discovery rate of < 0.05 were detected between SI and control samples for males and females respectively. DEGS for both males and females were significantly overrepresented in gene ontologies related to synaptic structure and function, especially the post-synapse. DEGs were enriched for common variant (SNP) heritability in humans that contributes to risk of neuropsychiatric disorders (schizophrenia, bipolar disorder) and to cognitive function. DEGs were also enriched for genes harbouring rare de novo variants that contribute to autism spectrum disorder and other developmental disorders. Finally, cell type analysis revealed populations of hippocampal astrocytes that were enriched for DEGs, indicating effects in these cell types as well as neurons. Overall, these data suggest a convergence between genes dysregulated by the SI stressor in the mouse and genes associated with neurodevelopmental disorders and cognitive phenotypes in humans.

Co-expression network analysis from genes involved with neural-differentiation shows specific pattern in patients with schizophrenia

Project description:Schizophrenia is a severe and debilitating neuropsychiatric disorder with the involvement of genetic and environmental factors contributing to its pathogenesis. The specific role of the brain cell types in the disease remains uncovered due to the difficulties in accessing diseased tissue. This study analysed molecular alterations in human induced pluripotent stem cells derived from fibroblasts from control subject and individual with schizophrenia and further differentiated to neuron to identify genes relevant for the development of schizophrenia. We identified 228 genes that are involved with metabolic processes, signal transduction, nervous system development, regulation of neurogenesis and neuronal differentiation. These genes were analysed in expression microarrays of post-mortem brain tissue (frontal cortex) of additional patients with schizophrenia and normal individuals revealing only six common genes: CACNA1E, CEBPB, DUX4, EDNRA, SPHK1 and SPRY4. Furthermore, a co-expression network analysis of the 228 genes revealed a non-conserved module enriched for genes associated with oxidative stress and negative regulation of cell differentiation as involved with schizophrenia. This study supports the relevance of using cellular approaches to dissect molecular aspects of neurogenesis with impact in the schizophrenic brain. Biopsies of primary human fibroblasts from a 48-year-old woman with DSM-IVTR schizophrenia defined as treatment-resistant under clozapine treatment (SZCP) were collected in parallel with a control subject (CON) negative for any major lifetime DSM-IVTR diagnosis. Fibroblasts underwent primary culture procedures to generate hiPSCs and were subsequently differentiated into neurons (NPC). Samples generation and culture conditions are described in Paulsen et al. (2011). Five replicates of expression microarray experiments using a reference design, where test sample (NPC) is derived from reference sample (hiPSC).

Protein interaction studies in human induced neurons indicate convergent biology underlying autism spectrum disorders. Cell Genomics (2023). [DOI: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.xgen.2022.100250] Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) have been linked to genes with enriched expression in the brain, but it is unclear how these genes converge into cell-type-specific networks. We built a protein-protein interaction network for 13 ASD-associated genes in human excitatory neurons derived from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). The network contains newly reported interactions and is enriched for genetic and transcriptional perturbations observed in individuals with ASDs. We leveraged the network data to show that the ASD-linked brain-specific isoform of ANK2 is important for its interactions with synaptic proteins and to characterize a PTEN-AKAP8L interaction that influences neuronal growth. The IGF2BP1-3 complex emerged as a convergent point in the network that may regulate a transcriptional circuit of ASD-associated genes. Our findings showcase cell-type-specific interactomes as a framework to complement genetic and transcriptomic data, and illustrate how both individual and convergent interactions can lead to biological insights into ASDs.
