Project description:Proximal spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is an early onset, autosomal recessive motor neuron disease caused by loss of or mutation in SMN1 (survival motor neuron 1). Despite understanding the genetic basis underlying this disease, it is still not known why motor neurons (MNs) are selectively affected by the loss of the ubiquitously expressed SMN protein. Using a mouse embryonic stem cell (mESC) model for severe SMA, the RNA transcript profiles (transcriptomes) between control and severe SMA (SMN2+/+;mSmn-/-) mESC-derived MNs were compared in this study using massively parallel RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq). The MN differentiation efficiencies between control and severe SMA mESCs were similar. RNA-Seq analysis identified 3094 upregulated and 6964 downregulated transcripts in SMA mESC-derived MNs when compared against control cells. Pathway and network analysis of the differentially expressed RNA transcripts showed that pluripotency and cell proliferation transcripts were significantly increased in SMA MNs while transcripts related to neuronal development and activity were reduced. The differential expression of selected transcripts such as Crabp1, Crabp2 and Nkx2.2 was validated in a second mESC model for SMA as well as in the spinal cords of low copy SMN2 severe SMA mice. Furthermore, the levels of these selected transcripts were restored in high copy SMN2 rescue mouse spinal cords when compared against low copy SMN2 severe SMA mice. These findings suggest that SMN deficiency affects processes critical for normal development and maintenance of MNs. RNA profiles were generated from FACS-purified control and SMA mESC-derived motor neurons (n=3/genotype) by deep sequencing using Illumina HighSeq 2500

Project description:RNA sequence was performed using mRNAs of motor neurons derived from iPSCs of four patients of spinal bulbar muscular atrophy (SBMA) and four age- and sex- matched controls. The analysis was performed using purified motor neurons by flowcytometry and cell sorting based on the expression of HB9e438::Venus reporter gene (P4) or unpurified motor neurons (NT).

Project description:Spinal motor neurons deficiency results in a series of devastating disorders such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) and spinal cord injury (SCI). These devastating disorders are currently incurable, while human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) derived spinal motor neurons are promising but suffered by low-efficiency, functional immaturity and lacks of posterior cell identity. In this study, we have established human spinal cord neural progenitor cells (hSCNPCs) via hPSCs differentiated neuromesodermal progenitors (NMPs) and demonstrated the hSCNPCs can be continuously expanded up to 40 passages. hSCNPCs can be rapidly differentiated into posterior spinal motor neurons with high efficiency. The functional maturity has been examined in detail. Moreover, a co-culture scheme which is compatible for both neural and muscular differentiation is developed to mimic the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) formation in vitro. Together, these studies highlight the potential avenues for generating clinically relevant motor neurons and modelling neuromuscular diseases through our defined hSCNPCs.

Project description:Spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy (SBMA), also known as Kennedy’s Disease, is a slowly progressive adult-onset neuromuscular disease which results from a polyglutamine (polyQ) encoding CAG repeat expansion within the androgen receptor gene (AR). Despite the ubiquitous expression of the androgen receptor, it is unclear why motor neurons selectively degenerate and there are no effective treatments or disease modifying therapies for this debilitating disease. In order to identify potential therapeutic targets, we set out to establish the genes and molecular pathways involved in early motor neuron dysfunction in SBMA. We therefore undertook global transcriptomic profiling of cultured primary embryonic motor neurons from the spinal cord of AR100 mice, which model SBMA.. Four biological replicate samples were used for genome wide analysis using Affymetrix 430 v2.0 mouse arrays. Data was normalised using therobust multichip average (RMA) algorithm.

Project description:Despite the discovery of many genetic risk factors, the cause of the motor neuron death that drives terminal pathology in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) remains unknown. We report that the skeletal muscle of ALS patients secretes exosomal vesicles that are specifically toxic to motor neurons. This could not be attributed to a trivial down-stream consequence of muscle denervation. In a study of muscle biopsies and biopsy-derived denervation-naïve differentiated muscle stem cells (myotubes) from 67 human subjects, including healthy and disease controls, ALS myotubes had a consistent signature of disrupted exosome biogenesis and RNA-processing, and their exosomes induced shortened, less branched, neurites, greater death, and disrupted localization of RNA and RNA-processing proteins in motor neurons. Toxicity was dependent on presence of the FUS protein, which is highly expressed in recipient motor neurons. As part of this work, we carried out gene expression analysis of myotubes (differentiated myoblasts) comparing ALS against two other motor neuron disorders as disease controls (SBMA, Spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy; and Spinal Muscular Atrophy Type 4, SMA-IV) and healthy controls.

Project description:Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) is well-known to be caused by mutations in the gene Survival of Motor Neuron 1 (SMN1). Because this gene is ubiquitously expressed, it remains poorly understood why motor neurons (MNs) are one of the most affected cell types. To begin to address this question, we carried out RNA-sequencing studies using fixed, antibody-labeled and purified MNs produced from control and SMA patient-derived induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). We found SMA-specific changes in MNs, including hyper-activation of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress pathway and enhanced apoptosis. Functional studies demonstrated that inhibition of ER stress improves overall MN health and survival in vitro even in MNs with low SMN levels. In SMA mice, we show that systemic delivery of an ER stress inhibitor that crosses the blood-brain-barrier led to preservation of MNs in the spinal cord and prolonged survival of these mice. Therefore, our study implies that selective activation of ER stress underlies MN death in SMA. Moreover, the approach we have taken would be broadly applicable to studying disease-prone human cells in heterogeneous cultures. total RNA collected from ES cell and patient ES cell derived spinal motor neurons

Project description:Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a neuromuscular disorder caused by mutations of the survival of motor neuron 1 (SMN1) gene. In the pathogenesis of SMA, pathological changes of the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) precede the motor neuronal loss. Therefore, it is critical to evaluate the NMJ formed by SMA patientsM-bM-^@M-^Y motor neurons (MNs), and to identify drugs that can restore the normal condition. We generated NMJ-like structures using motor neurons (MNs) derived from SMA patient-specific induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), and found that the clustering of the acetylcholine receptor (AChR) is significantly impaired. Valproic acid and antisense oligonucleotide treatment ameliorated the AChR clustering defects, leading to an increase in the level of full-length SMN transcripts. Thus, the current in vitro model of AChR clustering using SMA patient-derived iPSCs is useful to dissect the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying the development of SMA, and to evaluate the efficacy of new therapeutic approaches.M-bM-^@M-^C To compare the gene expression pattern between control and patient derived iPSCs
