Synaptic decline precedes dopaminergic neuronal loss in human midbrain organoids harboring a triplication of the SNCA gene

Project description:Increased levels of the protein alpha-synuclein (α-syn) are associated with the development of neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson's disease (PD). In physiological conditions, α-syn modulates synaptic plasticity, neurogenesis and neuronal survival. Here, we used a PD patient specific midbrain organoid model derived from induced pluripotent stem cells harboring a triplication in the SNCA gene to study PD-associated phenotypes. The model recapitulates the two main hallmarks of PD, which are α-syn aggregation and loss of dopaminergic neurons. Additionally, impairments in astrocyte differentiation were detected. Transcriptomics data indicate that synaptic function is impaired in PD specific midbrain organoids. This is further confirmed by alterations in synapse number and electrophysiological activity. We found that synaptic decline precedes neurodegeneration. Finally, this study substantiates that patient specific midbrain organoids allow a personalized phenotyping, which make them an interesting tool for precision medicine and drug discovery. However, its pathogenic accumulation and aggregation results in toxicity and neurodegeneration.

Single cell RNA sequencing data of SNCA triplication cortical organoids

Project description:Aggregated α-synuclein (α-SYN) proteins, encoded by the SNCA gene, are hallmarks of Lewy body disease (LBD), affecting multiple brain regions. However, the specific mechanisms underlying α-SYN pathology in cortical neurons, crucial for LBD-associated dementia, remain unclear. Here, we generated human cortical LBD models by differentiating induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from SNCA triplication LBD patients into cerebral organoids and observed increased levels of pathological α-SYN in these organoids. Single-cell RNA sequencing revealed prominent expression of the SNCA gene in excitatory neurons, which exhibited synaptic and mitochondrial dysfunction, consistent with findings in the cortex of LBD human brains. Furthermore, screening 1280 FDA-approved drugs identified four candidates, which inhibited α-SYN seeding in RT-QuIC assay, reduced α-SYN aggregation and alleviated mitochondrial dysfunction in SNCA triplication iPSC models. Our findings provide valuable insights into the development of cortical LBD models and the discovery of potential drugs targeting α-SYN aggregation.

Single cell RNA sequencing analysis of midbrain organoids with SNCA gene triplication modeling key features of synuclienopathy

Project description:SNCA, the first gene associated with Parkinson’s disease, encodes the α-synuclein protein, the predominant component within pathological inclusions termed Lewy bodies. We use 3D midbrain organoids, differentiated from human induced pluripotent stem cells derived from patients carrying a triplication of the SNCA gene and from CRISPR/Cas9 corrected isogenic control iPSCs. These human midbrain organoids recapitulate key features of α-synuclein pathology observed in the brains of patients with synucleinopathies. We used single cell RNA sequencing to characterize the cell types within these organoids. We find an equal proportion of neuronal and glial cells. The neuronal populations consist of dopmainergic, excitatory and inhibitory neurons in early and late stages of maturation as well as neural precursor cells. The glial populations consist of dividing radial glia, radial glia, astrocytes and early oligodendorcytes.

SNP data from genomic DNA from a subject, fibroblasts, iPSCs and neurons with four copies of SNCA, and genomic DNA from an unaffected first degree relative and equivalent cell lines

Project description:A major barrier to research on Parkinson’s disease (PD) is inaccessibility of diseased tissue for study. One solution is to derive induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from patients with PD and differentiate them into neurons affected by disease. We created an iPSC model of PD caused by triplication of SNCA encoding ?-synuclein. ?-Synuclein dysfunction is common to all forms of PD, and SNCA triplication leads to fully penetrant familial PD with accelerated pathogenesis. After differentiation of iPSCs into neurons enriched for midbrain dopaminergic subtypes, those from the patient contain double ?-synuclein protein compared to those from an unaffected relative, precisely recapitulating the cause of PD in these individuals. A measurable biomarker makes this model ideal for drug screening for compounds that reduce levels of ?-synuclein, and for mechanistic experiments to study PD pathogenesis. This SNP microarray study was carried out to confirm presence of SNCA triplication in the affected subject and the derived cell lines. 11 samples were analysed: genomic DNA from the two subjects in the study, the two parent fibroblast lines (AST denoting alpha-synuclein triplication and NAS denoting normal alpha-synuclein), two iPSC lines from each parent fibroblast line (four in total), a human embryonic stem cell line (SHEF4) and two neuronal samples one each from AST and NAS iPSCs).

Midbrain organoids with an <i>SNCA</i> gene triplication model key features of synucleinopathy.

Project description:SNCA, the first gene associated with Parkinson's disease, encodes the α-synuclein protein, the predominant component within pathological inclusions termed Lewy bodies. The presence of Lewy bodies is one of the classical hallmarks found in the brain of patients with Parkinson's disease, and Lewy bodies have also been observed in patients with other synucleinopathies. However, the study of α-synuclein pathology in cells has relied largely on two-dimensional culture models, which typically lack the cellular diversity and complex spatial environment found in the brain. Here, to address this gap, we use three-dimensional midbrain organoids, differentiated from human-induced pluripotent stem cells derived from patients carrying a triplication of the SNCA gene and from CRISPR/Cas9 corrected isogenic control iPSCs. These human midbrain organoids recapitulate key features of α-synuclein pathology observed in the brains of patients with synucleinopathies. In particular, we find that SNCA triplication human midbrain organoids express elevated levels of α-synuclein and exhibit an age-dependent increase in α-synuclein aggregation, manifested by the presence of both oligomeric and phosphorylated forms of α-synuclein. These phosphorylated α-synuclein aggregates were found in both neurons and glial cells and their time-dependent accumulation correlated with a selective reduction in dopaminergic neuron numbers. Thus, human midbrain organoids from patients carrying SNCA gene multiplication can reliably model key pathological features of Parkinson's disease and provide a powerful system to study the pathogenesis of synucleinopathies.
