Proteome of systemic extracellular vesicles from sporadic and familiar Alzheimer’s disease

ABSTRACT: Evidence suggests that extracellular vesicles (EVs) act as mediators and biomarkers of neurodegenerative diseases. Two distinct forms of Alzheimer Disease (AD) are known: a late-onset sporadic form (SAD) and an early-onset familial form (FAD). This project aims to characterize and compare the protein profile of systemic EVs from postmortem SAD and FAD patients and compared them to postmortem controls. We used LC-MS/MS label-free analysis.

Evidence suggests that extracellular vesicles (EVs) act as mediators and biomarkers of neurodegenerative diseases. Two distinct forms of Alzheimer disease (AD) are known: a late-onset sporadic form (SAD) and an early-onset familial form (FAD). Recently, neurovascular dysfunction and altered systemic immunological components have been linked to AD neurodegeneration. Therefore, we characterized systemic-EVs from postmortem SAD and FAD patients and evaluated their effects on neuroglial and endothel ...[more]

Project description:Background: Acute coronary syndromes (ACS) are associated with aberrant gene expression and epigenetic mechanisms. In particular, de novo DNA methylation is typically linked to gene silencing, but its role in heart disease remains not fully understood. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are active components in cellular communication for their ability to carry a plethora of signalling biomolecules, thus representing a promising new diagnostic/therapeutic approach in cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). Indeed, there is the need of novel biomarkers for ACS prediction and timely detection. Purpose: We hypothesized that specific epigenetic signals can be carried by EVs. In this regard, we isolated and characterized circulating EVs from ACS patients and evaluated their potential role to influence DNA methylation in target cells. Methods: Circulating EVs were recovered, by ultracentrifugation, from plasma samples of 19 ACS patients and 50 healthy subjects (HS). Nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA) and western blot (WB) were used to confirm the EVs integrity and purity. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of volunteer donors were treated with both ACS and HS derived EVs and genomic DNA was extracted to perform epigenome wide analysis through Reduced Representation Bisulfite Sequencing. ShinyGO, PANTHER, and STRING tools were interrogated to perform GO and PPI network analyses. Flow Cytometry, qRT-PCR, and WB analysis were also performed to evaluate and validate both intra-vesicular and intra-cellular signals. Results: Plasma ACS-derived EVs showed a significant up-regulation of DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) gene expression levels as compared to HS (P<0.001). Specifically, de novo methylation transcripts, as DNMT3A and DNMT3B were significantly increased in plasma ACS-EVs. DNA methylation analysis of PBMCs from volunteer donors treated with HS- and ACS-derived EVs showed that RNF166 and CCND3 genes resulted the most hyper- and hypo-methylated, respectively, after by ACS-EV treatment. In addition, PPI network analysis specifically evidenced the subnetwork with SRC, as a hub gene, connecting it to NOTCH1, FOXO3, CDC42, IKBKG, RXRA, DGKG, known as important genes already involved in the onset of CVDs. Surprising, other novel genes, BAIAP2, SYP, CHL1, and SHB, which were hypomethylated, were found significantly overexpressed in PBMCs (P<0.005), underlying the fundamental modulating properties of EV cargo in atherosclerosis. Conclusions: These findings support the significant role of ACS plasma-derived EVs, inducing de novo DNA methylation signals, and modulating specific signaling pathways in target cells.

Project description:There is a ever widening gap between the availability of donor livers suitable for transplantation and liver transplant demand of a growing waiting list. To expand the pool of liver grafts, donation after circulatory death is increasingly being used. Livers procured after circulatory death are exposed to a harmful period of warm Ischemia (WI) during the donation process, reducing post-transplant results significantly. Additionally, the conventional technique of static cold storage does not protect grafts that suffered WI. New dynamic preservation strategies by means of Normothermic Machine Perfusion (NMP) showed enhanced preservation of these type of grafts, but it is unknown how NMP influences liver cell biology during perfusion. Hepatocytes and cholnagiocytes have been shown to release Extracellular Vesicles (EVs) in the systemic circulation and bile, respectively. We hypothesized that EVs are released during liver NMP as well, in perfusate and bile. EVs have been separated from perfusate and bile during NMP of porcine livers, and the RNA cargo of the EVs has been sequenced to gain insights on liver cell biology during machine perfusion. Pigs were randomly allocated to undergo liver procurement either immediately after the start of surgery (no-WI, n=5) or after a period of WI of 60-minutes (clamping of thoracic aorta; WI-60, n=5). All livers (n=10) were cooled down and flushed out with ice-cold preservation solution, according to standard clinical practice. Porcine blood was collected and washed with a cell saver to obtain packed red blood cells for NMP. The hepatic artery, portal vein, and inferior vena cava were cannulated and after a period of about 2-hours of cold storage, NMP was started. All liver underwent NMP for 6-hours. Packed red blood-based perfusate samples were taken at 1, 3, and 6h of NMP; whereas, the bile produced the first 3-hours and the last 3-hours was pooled in 2 samples. Perfusate and bile samples were processed immediately for EVs separation with charge-based precipitation in a mixture of protamine and polyethylene glycol. The total RNA was extracted from EVs. Libraries of mRNA and of small RNA were prepared and analyzed for quality and size range, and sequenced on an Illumina HiSeq4000 instrument. Count-based differential expression analysis was done with R-based Bioconductor package DESeq2, and the following comparisons were performed: - Unpaired (between groups) comparison - perfusate samples WI-60 vs. no-WI - bile samples WI-60 vs. no-WI - Paired (withing group) comparison - no-WI - perfusate sample 1h vs. perfusate sample 3h - perfusate sample 1-3h vs. perfusate sample 6h - bile sample 1-3h vs. bile sample 3-6h - perfusate samples vs. bile samples - WI-60 - bile sample 1-3h vs. bile sample 3-6h - perfusate samples vs. bile samples Results were adjusted for multiple testing with the Benjamini-Hochberg procedure, to control for false discovery rate. Additionally, the function of the transcripts identified in the EVs of both groups and of the differentially expressed transcripts was investigated with gene ontology enrichment analysis for the domains \\"biological process\\" and \\"pathways\\".
