Epigenetic dysregulation of transposable elements in cognitive impairment and Alzheimer’s disease

Project description:Growing evidence implicates transposable elements (TEs) in aging and Alzheimer’s disease (AD). To evaluate potential transcriptional and epigenetic differences related to TE expression in this context, we generated whole blood total RNA-seq, and peripheral blood cell whole-genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS), and transposase-accessible chromatin sequencing (ATAC-seq) on samples from healthy middle-aged/older adults, mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and AD patients.

Distinct DNA methylation patterns of cognitive impairment and Trisomy 21 in Down Syndrome

Project description:The presence of an extra whole or part of chromosome 21 in people with Down syndrome (DS) is associated with multiple neurological changes, including pathological aging that often meets the criteria for Alzheimer’s Disease (AD). While the mechanism underlying these changes is unknown, it has been hypothesized that the presence of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) on chromosome 21 may contribute to the phenotype. Genome-wide DNA methylation abnormalities have been shown in neural tissue of patients with AD, and cells may respond to changes in gene dosage with altered DNA methylation. We therefore examined whole-genome DNA methylation in buccal epithelial cells of adults with DS to determine whether patterns of DNA methylation correlated with DS and/or cognitive impairment. In addition we examined DNA methylation at the APP gene itself, to see whether there were changes in DNA methylation in this population. Using the Illumina 450K Human Methylation Array, we examined more than 485,000 CpG sites distributed across the genome in buccal epithelial cells. We found 297 CpGs to be differentially methylated between the groups, including 26 genes that were represented by more than one CpG. In addition, we found 331 probes that were correlated with cognitive function including 23 genes represented by more than one probe. We found no enrichment on chromosome 21 and targeted analysis of the APP gene revealed weak evidence for epigenetic impacts related to the AD phenotype. Overall, our results indicate that both Trisomy 21 and cognitive impairment are associated with distinct patterns of DNA methylation. This cohort consist of genomic DNA extracted from 20 buccal swabs, bisulphite converted and hybridized to the Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation450 Beadchip for genome wide DNA methylation profiling.

Characterization of Global DNA Methylome in Mild Cognitive Impairment and Alzheimer's Disease

Project description:Genome-wide profiling of DNA methylation in blood leukocytes from Chinese patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The Illumina Infinium MethylationEPIC BeadChip array (850K chip) was used to detect DNA methylation profiles throughout approximately 850,000 CpG sites in peripheral blood white cells of MCI- and AD-affected Chinese patients, as well as cognitively healthy controls. All samples included 20 Chinese patients with MCI, 20 Chinese patients with AD, and 20 cognitively healthy controls.

Alzheimer, Mild Cognitive impairment and control samples from AddneuroMed Cohort (batch 2)

Project description:Alzheimer case-control samples originate from the EU funded AddNeuroMed Cohort, which is a large cross-European AD biomarker study relying on human blood as the source of RNA. The design is case-control. Cases are either Alzheimer's disease patients, subjects with mild cognitive impairment or age and gender matched controls.

Pathogenic tau-induced piRNA depletion promotes neuronal death through transposable element dysregulation in neurodegenerative tauopathies

Project description:Transposable elements, known colloquially as “jumping genes,” constitute approximately 45% of the human genome. Cells utilize epigenetic defenses to limit transposable element jumping, including formation of silencing heterochromatin and generation of piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs), small RNAs that facilitate clearance of transposable element transcripts. Here we identify transposable element activation as a key mediator of neuronal death in tauopathies, a group of neurodegenerative disorders, including Alzheimer’s disease, that are pathologically characterized by deposits of tau protein in the brain. Mechanistically, we find that heterochromatin decondensation and reduction of piwi/piRNAs drive transposable element activation in tauopathy. Using genetic and pharmacological approaches in a Drosophila melanogaster model of tauopathy, we provide evidence for a causal relationship between pathogenic tau-induced heterochromatin decondensation, piwi/piRNA depletion, active transposable element obilization, and neurodegeneration. We further report a significant increase in transcripts of the endogenous retrovirus class of transposable elements in human Alzheimer’s disease and progressive supranuclear palsy, suggesting that transposable element dysregulation is conserved in human tauopathy. Taken together, our data identify heterochromatin decondensation, piwi/piRNA depletion and consequent transposable element activation as a novel, pharmacologically targetable, mechanistic driver of neurodegeneration in tauopathy.

Detection of Alzheimer’s Disease at Mild Cognitive Impairment and Disease Progression Using Autoantibodies as Blood-based Biomarkers

Project description:Human serum samples from Alzheimer's disease driven mild cognitive impairment and non-diseased controls were probed onto human protein microarrays in order to identify differentially expressed autoantibody biomarkers that could be used as diagnostic indicators. Other neurodegenerative and non-neurodegenerative diseases were also used to help measure the specificity of the selected biomarkers.

CCR3 knockdown attenuates prolonged underwater operation-induced cognitive impairment via alleviating microglia-mediated neuroinflammation

Project description:It is important to maintain cognitive integrity during underwater operations, which may also trigger cognitive alterations. Cognitive effect of underwater operations and the underlying mechanism remain elusive. Here, we found a single underwater operation affects cognition in a time-dependent model. Prolonged exposure elicits significant cognitive impairment and hippocampal dysfunction, which was accompanied by activation of microglia and upregulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines. RNA-sequencing supported the involvement of neuroinflammation and indicated the critical role of CCR3. Knockdown of CCR3 significantly rescued cognitive impairment and hippocampal dysfunction. Furthermore, the upregulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines was also reversed. Mechanistically, CCR3 knockdown switched the activated microglia from a pro-inflammatory to neuroprotective phenotype. Taken together, these results highlighted the time-dependent effects of a single underwater operation on cognitive function. Knocking down CCR3 can attenuate neuroinflammation by regulating polarization of activated microglia, thereby alleviating prolonged underwater operation-induced cognitive impairment.
