DLG2 knockout reveals neurogenic transcriptional programs underlying neuropsychiatric disorders and cognition

Project description:A complex train of events unfolds during brain development, guided by activation/repression of gene expression programs. It remains unclear how this process is disrupted in disease. Here we integrate human genetics with transcriptomic data from differentiation of human embryonic stem cells into cortical excitatory neurons. This reveals a cascade of transcriptional programs activated during early corticoneurogenesis in vitro and in vivo. Genetic variation in these programs is robustly associated with neuropsychiatric disorders and cognitive function, with variants concentrated in loss-of-function intolerant genes. Neurogenic programs also capture schizophrenia GWAS enrichment previously identified in mature excitatory neurons, suggesting that pathways activated during pre-natal development underlie disease-relevant deficits in mature neuronal function. Down-regulation of these programs in DLG2-/- lines delays expression of cell-type identity and impairs neuronal migration, morphology and action potential generation, validating predicted deficits. These data implicate specific cellular pathways underlying neurodevelopment in the aetiology of multiple neuropsychiatric disorders and cognition.

DLG2 knockout reveals neurogenic transcriptional programs underlying neuropsychiatric disorders and cognition

Project description:Brain development requires a complex choreography of cell proliferation, specialisation, migration and network formation, guided by the activation and repression of gene expression programs. It remains unclear how this process is disrupted in neuropsychiatric disorders. Here we integrate human genetics with transcriptomic data from the differentiation of human embryonic stem cells into cortical excitatory neurons. This reveals a cascade of transcriptional programs, activated during early corticoneurogenesis in vitro and in vivo, in which genetic variation is robustly associated with neuropsychiatric disorders and cognitive function. Within these early neurogenic programs, genetic risk is concentrated in loss-of-function intolerant (LoFi) genes, capturing virtually all LoFi disease association. Down-regulation of these programs in DLG2 knockout lines delays expression of cell-type identity alongside marked deficits in neuronal migration, morphology and action potential generation, validating computational predictions. These data implicate specific cellular pathways and neurodevelopmental processes in the aetiology of multiple neuropsychiatric disorders and cognition.

Chromatin accessibility mapping for GWAS risk loci reveals compound genetic effects of neurodevelopment and neurodegenerative disorders in human neurons

Project description:Here, in NEUROG2-induced human neurons, we identified 31 credible risk SNPs in 26 schizophrenia (SZ) risk loci that displayed allele-specific open chromatin (ASoC) and were likely to be functional. For the VPS45 locus showing the strongest ASoC, CRISPR/Cas9 editing of ASoC SNP (rs2027349) altered the local expression of VPS45 and AC244033.2 (a lncRNA), and a distal gene, C1orf54. Notably, the global expression changes in neurons correlated with post-mortem brain expression signatures of neuropsychiatric disorders. Neurons carrying risk allele exhibited increased dendritic complexity, synaptic puncta density and hyperactivity, which were partially reversed by knocking-down each cis-regulated gene (VPS45, AC244033.2, or C1orf54), suggesting phenotypic contribution from all three genes.

Transcriptome and chromatin accessibility landscapes across 25 human brain regions expand the susceptibility gene set for neuropsychiatric disorders [RNA-Seq]

Project description:Brain region- and cell-specific transcriptome and epigenome molecular features are associated with heritability for neuropsychiatric traits. Here, we provide an atlas of chromatin accessibility and gene expression in neuronal and non-neuronal cells across 25 distinct regions across cortical and subcortical areas of the human brain from 6 neurotypical controls. We identified extensive gene expression and chromatin accessibility differences across brain regions. We further identified variation in alternative promoter-isoform usage and enhancer-promoter interactions across brain regions and found genes with distinct promoter-isoform usage are strongly enriched for neuropsychiatric risk variants. We identified brain region-specific chromatin co-accessibility and gene-coexpression modules that are robustly associated with genetic risk variants for neuropsychiatric disorders. Using an integrative approach, we identify a novel set of genes that is enriched for neuropsychiatric disorders risk variants but is independent of cell-type specific gene expression and annotated pathways. Our results provide a valuable multi-brain region molecular regulation resource and suggest a unique contribution of epigenetic modifications from the subcortical areas to neuropsychiatric disorders.

Meta-analysis of genome-wide DNA methylation identifies shared associations across neurodegenerative disorders

Project description:People with neurodegenerative disorders have diverse clinical syndromes, genetic heterogeneity, and distinct brain pathological changes, but studies report overlap between these features. DNA methylation (DNAm) is a widely studied chemical modification to DNA, and increasing evidence suggests that DNAm alterations play an important role in neurodegenerative disorders. In this study we aimed to identify shared blood DNAm differences between 471-1,522 controls and people with Alzheimer’s disease (N = 161), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (N = 3,032) and Parkinson’s disease (N = 1,132). We used a mixed-linear model method (MOMENT) that has been shown to account for the effect of (un)known confounders, to test for association of each DNAm site with each disorder. A fixed-effects meta-analysis of Alzheimer’s disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and Parkinson’s disease results identified 12 differentially methylated positions passing a genome-wide significant threshold. Predicted immune cell-type proportions were disrupted across all neurodegenerative disorders, as well as schizophrenia and rheumatoid arthritis. Protein inflammatory markers were correlated with profile sum-scores derived from disease-associated immune cell-type proportions in a healthy ageing cohort. In contrast, they were not correlated with MOMENT DNAm-derived profile sum-scores, calculated using effect sizes of the 12 differentially methylated positions as weights. We have identified shared differentially methylated positions in whole blood between neurodegenerative disorders that point to shared pathogenic mechanisms. These shared differentially methylated positions may reflect causes or consequences of disease, but they are unlikely to reflect cell-type proportion differences.

Transcription profiling of patients with four neurodegenerative disorders distinguishes tauopathies and identifies shared molecular pathways

Project description:We have constructed genome wide expression profiles from snap frozen post-mortem tissue from the medial temporal lobe of patients with four neurodegenerative disorders (5 AD, 5 PSP, 5 PiD and 5 FTD patients) and 5 control subjects. All patients were matched for age, gender, ApoE-epsilon and MAPT (tau) haplotype. From all groups a total of 790 probes were shown to be differently expressed when compared to control individuals. The results from these experiments were then used to investigate the correlations between clinical, pathological and molecular findings. From the 790 identified probes we extracted a gene set of 166 probes whose expression could discriminate between these disorders and normal ageing. This gene set can be further developed into an accurate microarray-based classification test. Furthermore, from this dataset we extracted a disease specific set of genes and identified two aging related transcription factors (FOXO1A and FOXO3A) as possible drug targets related to neurodegenerative disease.
