Project description:Numerous genes mutated in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) share a role in DNA damage and repair, emphasizing genome disintegration in ALS. DNA instability and repair mechanisms segregate extrachromosomal circular DNAs (ec/eccDNAs) that can modulate gene expression somatically. Here, circulome profiling in a hSOD1G93A genotoxicity model of ALS revealed a 6-fold enrichment of small-size eccDNAs relative to controls. DifCir-based differential analysis identified 189 genes with patterned segregation of differentially produced per gene circles (DPpGCs) from ALS but not from control samples, implicating an inter-sample recurrence rate of at least 89% for the top 6 DPpGCs. Mass spectrometry-based ALS circulome-proteome cross-referencing revealed 31 corresponding differentially expressed proteins (DEPs), with 12 DPpGC-DEP pairs being itemized in ALS risk GWAS databases. DPpGC-DEP hotspots mainly convey neuron-specific functions counteracting ALS detriments. This is unanticipated evidence for non-random, profiled eccDNA accumulation in ALS neurodegeneration, involving putative interactions with their gene products as well as biomarker perspectives.

Project description:Transcripional profiling of lymphocytes from patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) (n=11) and healthy control subjects (n=11). The goal was to determine disease response expression signatures relevant of ALS pathogenesis that affect brain and spinal cord. The reference design was used: each Cy5-labeled cRNA sample from ALS patient or healthy control subject was cohybridized on Agilent-014850 Whole Human Genome Microarray 4x44K G4112F with the reference pool formed with equal amounts of Cy3-labeled cRNAs from each sample from the healthy control group. Eleven lymphocyte samples from definite sporadic ALS patients and eleven samples from healthy control subjects were used.

Project description:The purpose of this experiment was to compare the differences in transcript levels between RNA samples collected from fibroblasts from healthy control patients, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) patients carrying an expanded GGGGCC repeat mutation in the chromosome 9 open reading frame 72 gene and ALS patients with a mutation in the SOD1 gene.

Project description:Increasing evidence suggests that defective RNA processing contributes to the development of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). This may be especially true for ALS caused by a repeat expansion in C9orf72 (c9ALS), in which the accumulation of RNA foci and dipeptide-repeat proteins are expected to modify RNA metabolism. We report extensive alternative splicing (AS) and alternative polyadenylation (APA) defects in the cerebellum of c9ALS cases (8,224 AS, 1,437 APA), including changes in ALS-associated genes (e.g. ATXN2 and FUS), and cases of sporadic ALS (sALS; 2,229 AS, 716 APA). Furthermore, hnRNPH and other RNA-binding proteins are predicted as potential regulators of cassette exon AS events for both c9ALS and sALS. Co-expression and gene-association network analyses of gene expression and AS data revealed divergent pathways associated with c9ALS and sALS.
