Proteogenomics of synaptosomal mitochondrial oxidative stress

ABSTRACT: There has been increasing interest in the quantification and characterization of messages and proteins at the synapse, due to its importance in neurodegenerative disease, most notably Alzheimer’s disease. Here, we report the transcriptomic and proteomic changes that occur in synaptosomes from frontal cortices of Sod2 null mice. Constitutively null Sod2 mice were differentially dosed with the synthetic catalytic antioxidant EUK-189, which can extend the lifespan of these mice, as well as uncover or prevent neurodegeneration due to endogenous oxidative stress. This approach facilitated insight into quantification of trafficked messages and proteins to the synaptosome. We used two complementary methods to investigate the nature of the synaptosome under oxidative stress; either whole genome gene expression microarrays or mass spectrometry-based proteomics using isobaric tagging for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ) of proteins. We have characterized the relative enrichments of gene ontologies at both gene and protein expression that occur due to mitochondrial oxidative stress in the synaptosome, which may lead to new avenues of investigation in understanding the regulation of the synaptic function in normal and diseased states. As a result of using these approaches, we report for the first time an activation of the mTOR pathway in synaptosomes isolated from Sod2 null mice, confirmed by an upregulation of the phosphorylation of 4E-BP1. mRNA was extracted from synaptosome samples of individual mice from each genotype/treatment group (N=9-11 per group/treatment). 200ng of the purified total RNA was then amplified one round using Ambion’s Illumina RNA Amplification Kit, to prepare cRNA for labeling and hybridization to Illumina’s MouseRef-8 v2.0 expression bead chips as per the manufacturers instructions (Illumina, San Diego, CA, USA).

Project description:Gene expression profiling was performed using Anemic Sod 2 Knockout mice and was compared to Gene expression profiles from Sod 2 WT mice. Background: Our laboratory is interested in the role of oxidative stress in aging and human disease. Currently, a major focus of our efforts is the characterization of a murine hemolytic anemia resulting from oxidative stress, a model for the human disorder Sideroblastic Anemia. This model is based upon transplantation of hematopoietic stem cells from mice that are deficient in the antioxidant protein SOD2 (Friedman J. Exp. Med. 2001 193:925). SOD2 protects against the cytotoxicity of mitochondrial superoxide produced as a byproduct of oxidative phosphorylation (Weisiger J. Biol. Chem. 1973 248:4793). In characterization of the model to date, we have focused upon RBC proteomic analysis to identify 41 proteins differentially expressed when comparing membrane and soluble RBC fractions from SOD2-/- vs. SOD2+/+ mice (Friedman et al. submitted). In addition, we have characterized the in vivo response of animals to a novel catalytic antioxidant (Euk-189) that has b! oth SOD and catalase activities. In addition to proteins involved in mitochondrial function and stress response we find a number of cell surface molecules with significant differential expression. Thrombospondin is found at higher levels in SOD2-/- red cell membrane fractions. This is an extracellular matrix glycoprotein involved in cell adhesion and migration that interacts with glycosaminoglycans (especially the heparan sulfate proteoglycan perlecan) expressed at the endothelial cell surface (Feitsma J. Biol. Chem. 2000 275:9396, Vischer Eur. J. Cell. Biol. 1997 73:332, Sun J. Biol. Chem. 1989 15:2885). Thrombospondin is likely an acquired surface molecule on our red cells, which is of interest as this molecule has been found on the surface of sickle red cells and appears to mediate abnormal adhesion of red cells to vessel wall (Hillery Blood 1996 87:4879, Sugihara Blood 1992 15:2634). CD44 is also found at higher levels in SOD2-/- membrane fractions. CD44 is an adhesion receptor for the high molecular weight polysaccharide hyaluronic acid and has been shown recently to be involved in the trafficking of stem cells to the bone marrow (Avigdor Blood January 2004). Higher expression of these molecules on the surface of SOD2-/- red cells may affect their adhesive interactions with vascular endothelium and may in part explain the early removal of these cells from the circulationóresulting in the observed hemolytic anemia. Some proteins that accumulate on the surface of SOD2 deficient red cells are likely molecular damage sensors, binding to surfaces altered by oxidative damage. The role of specific glycoproteins in such binding remains to be elucidated. Additional surface proteins from red cells show differential expression, many of which are also glycosylated. Planned Experiment: As the next step in characterization of the anemia model, we will compare the gene expression profile of red cell progenitors isolated from Sod2-/- and Sod2+/+ animals. We have defined cell-sorting conditions for isolation of erythroid progenitor cells from marrow of our mice.

Project description:The mitochondrial superoxide dismutase (SOD2) is a major antioxidant protein which detoxifies superoxide anion radicals generated by mitochondrial respiration (Weisiger and Fridovich, J. Biol. Chem. 1973). We designed a model of oxidative stress-induced anemia caused by SOD2-deficiency (Friedman et al. J. Exp. Med. 2001). Our previous work showed that mice reconstituted with SOD2-deficient hematopoietic stem cells develop an anemia with striking similarity to human sideroblastic anemia (SA) (Friedman et al. Blood 2004; Martin et al. Exp Hematol 2005). Our overall goal was to define early events in the pathogenesis of SOD2-deficiency SA and, in particular, to identify genes involved in the response of erythroid progenitors to oxidative stress. We compared gene expression of sorted TER-119+ CD71+ erythroblasts from SOD2-/- ('KO') versus Sod2+/+ ('WT') hematopoietic stem cell recipients using cDNA microarrays. Samples used in this study were re-hybridized with GLYCOv2 oligonucleotide arrays. GLYCOv2 oligonucleotide arrays are custom Affymetrix GeneChip arrays (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA) designed for the Functional Glycomics Gateway, collaboration between the Consortium for Functional Glycomics (CFG, http://www.functionalglycomics.org/) and Nature Publishing Group. A complete description of the array can be found at http://www.functionalglycomics.org/static/consortium/resources/resourcecoree.shtml . Hybridization results and quality control details can be found at https://www.functionalglycomics.org/glycomics/publicdata/microarray.jsp , by clicking on the âRaw Dataâ icon link for microarray experiment âJeff Friedman 1: Sod2 KO anemic miceâ. Briefly but importantly, one Sod2-/- sample, which was prepared separately, and whose GAPDH 3'/5' ratio was off range, was legitimately removed from the analysis of the GLYCOv2 and 430 2.0 arrays. Experiment Overall Design: We sorted Sod2-/- and Sod2+/+ size-matched mouse erythroblasts based on the expression of two developmental surface markers, CD71 and TER-119. Total RNA from 4 biological replicates per genotype were extracted and hybridized on 8 Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 arrays (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA). After quality controls (see scan protocol), analysis was performed with GeneSifter (VizX Labs, Seattle, WA) using 4 Sod2+/+ (control samples, WT) and 3 Sod2-/- (KO) replicates.
