Project description:In this study, we used human cortical organoids (hCOs) derived from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) to examine how hypoxia exposure interferes with astrocyte synapse engulfment at 6 months in culture and 10 months in culture, equivalent to mid fetal- or neonatal-equivalent stages of development, respectively. We identified that hypoxia inhibits the synaptosome engulfment by human astrocytes at both developmental stages, with a more pronounced phenotype in 10 months astrocytes. Transcriptional analyses revealed disruptions in circadian rhythm pathways in hypoxic astrocytes, but not neurons, and PER2 luciferase assays (PER2::LUC) validated the presence of circadian rhythms and their disruption by hypoxia in intact hCOs, with more pronounced rhythms in 10 months hCOs.

Project description:Sensory lesioning induces microglial synapse elimination via ADAM10 and fractalkine signaling
| PRJNA530236 | ENA
Project description:Synapse loss and glial activation are hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease (AD). In Tau P301S transgenic mice, the complement pathway contributes to neuronal damage through microglial elimination of synapses. Here, we used unbiased proteomic profiling of postsynaptic density (PSD) fractions from Tau P301S mice in C1q-WT versus C1q knockout backgrounds to identify C1q-dependent changes at synapses. Integrative multi-omics analysis revealed that astrocyte- and microglia- specific proteins are increased in Tau P301S synapse fractions with age and in a C1q-dependent manner. The same set of glial proteins (including C1q, C4, Gpnmb, and S100a4) is elevated in human AD synaptic fractions, and C4 levels are raised in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from AD patients. Besides microglia, we show that astrocytes contribute substantially to excitatory and inhibitory synapse engulfment in Tau P301S hippocampus. Based on staining of synapse markers within lysosomes, astrocytes showed preference for excitatory synapses whereas microglia preferred to engulf inhibitory synapse markers. Genetic deletion of C1q reduced astrocytic eating of excitatory and inhibitory synapses in Tau P301S mice, and rescued synapse density. Together, our data indicate that astrocytes contact and phagocytose synapses in a C1q- dependent manner and thereby contribute to synapse loss and neurodegeneration in AD.

Project description:Mutations in MECP2 give rise to Rett syndrome (RTT), an X-linked neurodevelop- mental disorder that results in broad cognitive impairments in females. While the exact etiology of RTT symptoms remains unknown, one possible explanation for its clinical presentation is that loss of MeCP2 causes miswiring of neural circuits due to defects in the brain’s capacity to respond to changes in neuronal activity and sensory experience. Here, we show that MeCP2 is phosphorylated at four residues in the brain (S86, S274, T308, and S421) in response to neuronal activity, and we generate a quadruple knock-in (QKI) mouse line in which all four activity-dependent sites are mutated to alanines to prevent phosphorylation. QKI mice do not display overt RTT phenotypes or detectable gene expression changes in two brain regions. However, electrophysiological recordings from the retinogeniculate synapse of QKI mice reveal that while synapse elimination is initially normal at P14, it is significantly compromised at P20. Notably, this phenotype is distinct from the synapse refinement defect previously reported for Mecp2 null mice, where synapses initially refine but then regress after the third postnatal week. We thus propose a model in which activity-induced phosphorylation of MeCP2 is critical for the proper timing of retinogeniculate synapse maturation specifically during the early postnatal period.

Project description:Cell surface receptors, including erythropoietin-producing hepatocellular A4 (EphA4), are important in regulating hippocampal synapse loss, which is the key driver of memory decline in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). However, the cellular-specific roles and mechanisms of EphA4 are unclear. Here, we show that EphA4 expression is elevated in hippocampal CA1 astrocytes in AD conditions. Specific knockout of astrocytic EphA4 ameliorates excitatory synapse loss in the hippocampus in AD transgenic mouse models. Single-nucleus RNA sequencing analysis revealed that EphA4 inhibition specifically decreases a reactive astrocyte subpopulation with enriched complement signaling, which are characteristics associated with synapse elimination by astrocytes in AD. Importantly, astrocytic EphA4 knockout in an AD transgenic mouse model decreases complement tagging on excitatory synapses and excitatory synapses within astrocytes. These findings suggest an important role of EphA4 in the astrocyte-mediated elimination of excitatory synapses in AD and highlight the crucial role of astrocytes in hippocampal synapse maintenance in AD.

Project description:Identification of cyclical expressed coding and non-coding genes during the circadian rhythm in NIH3T3 cells. NIH3T3 cells were synchronized for their circadian rhythm and RNA sequencing were performed at several time points along the rhythm. This data was used to identify cyclical expressed genes as well as long intergenic non-coding RNAs. NIH3T3 cells were synchronized with 100 nM Dexamethasone for 2 hours, then medium was changed to normal culture medium (0h). Every 4 hours cells were harvested, RNA isolated and RNAseq performed.
