Project description:Beyond the DNA sequence difference between humans and closely related apes, there are large differences in the environments that these species experience. One prominent example for this is diet. The human diet diverges from those of other primates in various aspects, such as having a high calorie and protein content, as well as being cooked. Here, we used a laboratory mouse model to identify gene expression differences related to dietary differences. Experiment Overall Design: We fed four groups of six genetically identical 8-week-old female NMR1 mice one of four diets ad libidum: (1) a diet consisting of vegetables, fruit and yogurt identical to the diet fed to chimpanzees in our ape facility ('Chimpanzee'); (2) a diet consisting exclusively of McDonalds. fast food ('FastFood'); (3) a diet consisting of cooked food eaten by our staff in the Institute cafeteria ('HumanCafe'); (4) the mouse pellet diet on which they were raised ('Pellet'). At the end of a 2-week period, mice were euthanized by cervical dislocation and both liver and brain (right cerebral hemisphere) tissue were dissected. RNA was extracted from the 24 liver and brain samples as per established lab protocols and processed in two batches (containing equal numbers of individuals from all groups).

Project description:The goal of this study was to assess the number and types of differentially expressed genes in a transgenic (genomic) mouse model of tau pathology. Notably, we crossed previously described genomic mouse line called â8câ that expresses all isoforms of human tau protein (Duff et al., Neurobiology of Disease, 2000;7(2):87) with a mouse tau knockout line (Dawson et al., J Cell Sci 2001;114:1179) and generated humanized mice line called âhTau Dk/Dkâ. These mice are complete knockout of endogenous mouse tau and express all six isoforms of human tau driven by the endogenous human tau promoter. We performed microarray analysis in the hippocampal tissue from six-month old hTau Dk/Dk mice (n=3) and compared it with age-matched non-transgenic control group. Both the lines are in C57BL/6J genetic background.

Project description:Remyelinating substances could be an essential supplement to immunomodulatory medications, optimizing the treatment of multiple sclerosis (MS) patients. Fingolimod is a sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor (S1PR) modulator and crosses the blood-brain barrier. Central nervous system (CNS) cells express S1PRs, and Fingolimod could theoretically improve CNS remyelination and be neuroprotective per se, but data are inconsistent. We used the cuprizone model for investigating the effect of fingolimod on remyelination and axonal damage by Immunohistochemistry and quantitative mass spectrometry. After three weeks of remyelination, fingolimod-treated mice had more mature oligodendrocytes in the secondary motor cortex than the placebo group. However, fingolimod did not at any time point affect remyelination or axonal damage. We conclude that fingolimod does not promote remyelination or protect against axonal injury or loss after cuprizone exposure.

Project description:Parkinson’s disease (PD) is characterized by multiple symptoms including olfactory dysfunction, whose underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we explored pathologic changes in the olfactory pathway of transgenic (Tg) mice of both sexes expressing the human A30P mutant α-synuclein (α-syn; α-syn-Tg mice) at 6–7 and 12–14 months of age, representing early and late-stages of motor progression, respectively. α-Syn-Tg mice at late stages exhibited olfactory behavioral deficits, which correlated with severe α-syn pathology in projection neurons (PNs) of the olfactory pathway. In parallel, olfactory bulb (OB) neurogenesis in α-syn-Tg mice was reduced in the OB granule cells at six to seven months and OB periglomerular cells at 12–14 months, respectively, both of which could contribute to olfactory dysfunction. Proteomic analyses showed a disruption in endocytic and exocytic pathways in the OB during the early stages which appeared exacerbated at the synaptic terminals when the mice developed olfactory deficits at 12–14 months. Our data suggest that (1) the α-syn-Tg mice recapitulate the olfactory functional deficits seen in PD; (2) olfactory structures exhibit spatiotemporal disparities for vulnerability to α-syn pathology; (3) α-syn pathology is restricted to projection neurons in the olfactory pathway; (4) neurogenesis in adult α-syn-Tg mice is reduced in the OB; and (5) synaptic endocytosis and exocytosis defects in the OB may further explain olfactory deficits.

Project description:Traumatic brain injury (TBI) remains a leading cause of post traumatic epilepsy (PTE). Blast TBI (bTBI) found in Veterans presents cognitive and behavioral disturbance such as PTE, however, the underlying mechanisms that drive the long-term sequelae are not well understood. Using an unbiased proteomics approach in a murine model of repeated bTBI (rbTBI), this study addresses this gap in knowledge. Following rbTBI, mice underwent 24/7 EEG recording for four months before collecting the cortex and hippocampus of PTE+, PTE- and sham mice. Hundreds of differentially expressed proteins were identified in the cortex and hippocampus of PTE+ and PTE- relative to sham. Focusing on protein pathways unique to PTE+ animals revealed mitochondrial function, post translational modifications, and protein transport proteins were disrupted. Computational metabolic modeling using dysregulated protein expression predicted mitochondrial proton pump dysregulation, suggesting electron transport chain dysregulation in epileptic tissue relative to PTE- and sham. Finally, data mining enabled the identification of several novel and previously validated TBI and epilepsy biomarkers in our data set, many of which were found to already be targeted by drugs in various phases of clinical testing. These findings highlight novel proteins and protein pathways that may drive the chronic PTE sequala following rbTBI.

Project description:Donepezil, an acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor, was approved by FDA for the symptomatic therapies of patients with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) in 1996. Although donepezil have been regarded as the standard and first-line treatment for AD, the capacity of such drugs to alter the underlying disease process is still unclear. In this study, we sought to explore the possible protective mechanism of donepezil in triple-transgenic Alzheimer’s disease (3×Tg-AD) mice model. 3×Tg-AD mice were treated for 4 months with donepezil (1.3 mg /kg) and its effects were evaluated by behavioral tests and molecular analysis. The cognition of donepezil-treated mice was restored significantly. Reduced levels of soluble and insoluble amyloid beta 1-40 (Aβ 1-40) and amyloid beta 1-42 (Aβ 1-42) as well as senile plaques were observed. Moreover, donepezil treatment prevented the dendritic spine loss in hippocampus neurons. We further investigated the effects of donepezil on the hippocampal protein of 3×Tg-AD mice by quantitative proteomics technology. Proteomic results indicated that donepezil significantly elevated the levels of PINK1, NFASC, MYLK2, and RASN in the hippocampus, and modulated axon guidance, mitophagy, mTOR signaling, and MAPK pathway. The results suggested that donepezil induced neuroprotective effects through multiple mechanisms.

Project description:The pathophysiology of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is multifactorial with characteristic extracellular accumulation of amyloid-beta (Aβ) and intraneuronal aggregation of hyperphosphorylated tau in the brain. Development of disease-modifying treatment for AD has been challenging. Recent studies suggest that deleterious alterations in neurovascular cells happens in parallel with Aβ accumulation, inducing tau pathology and necroptosis. Therefore, therapies targeting cellular Aβ and tau pathologies may provide a more effective strategy of disease intervention. Tetramethylpyrazine nitrone (TBN) is a nitrone derivative of tetramethylpyrazine, an active ingredient from Ligusticum wallichii Franchat (Chuanxiong). We previously showed that TBN is a potent scavenger of free radicals with multi-targeted neuroprotective effects in rat and monkey models of ischemic stroke. The present study aimed to investigate the anti-AD properties of TBN. We employed AD-related cellular model (N2a/APPswe) and transgenic mouse model (3×Tg-AD mouse) for mechanistic and behavioral studies. Our results showed that TBN markedly improved cognitive functions and reduced Aβ and hyperphosphorylated tau levels in mouse model. Further investigation of the underlying mechanisms revealed that TBN promoted non amyloidogenic processing pathway of amyloid precursor protein (APP) in N2a/APPswe in vitro. Moreover, TBN preserved synapses from dendritic spine loss and upregulated synaptic protein expressions in 3×Tg-AD mice. Proteomic analysis of 3×Tg-AD mouse hippocampal and cortical tissues showed that TBN induced neuroprotective effects through modulating mitophagy, MAPK and mTOR pathways. In particular, TBN significantly upregulated PINK1, a key protein for mitochondrial homeostasis, implicating PINK1 as a potential therapeutic target for AD. In summary, TBN improved cognitive functions in AD-related mouse model, inhibited Aβ production and tau hyperphosphorylation, and rescued synaptic loss and neuronal damage. Multiple mechanisms underlie the anti-AD effects of TBN including the modulation of APP processing, mTOR signaling and PINK1-related mitophagy.

Project description:Alzheimer's disease (AD) is one of the most common neurodegenerative diseases. So far, there is no effective treatment for this condition. Tetramethylpyrazine (TMP) is an alkaloid extracted from traditional Chinese medicine chuanxiong, which is mainly used in the treatment of ischemic stroke some related diseases. In this study, we studied the potential effects of TMP on AD progression by using two AD mouse models. 8-month-old 3xTg-AD mice received TMP treatment (10mg/kg/d) for 1 month, and 4-month-old APP/PS1-AD mice received TMP treatment (10mg/kg/d) for 2 months. The behavioral tests by step-down passive avoidance test (SDA), new object recognition (NOR) and Morris water maze (MWM) showed that TMP significantly improved the learning and memory impairment of two AD transgenic mice. In addition, TMP reduced Aß levels and tau phosphorylation. Venny analysis showed that 116 differentially expressed proteins were commonly changed in 3xTg mice vs WT mice and TMP treated mice vs untreated mice. The same, 130 differentially expressed proteins were commonly changed in APP/PS1 mice vs WT mice and TMP treated mice vs untreated mice. The functions of the common proteins modified by TMP in the two models were mainly related to mitochondrial function, synaptic function, cytoskeleton, GTP binding, ATP binding. Mitochondrial omics analysis revealed 21 and 20 differentially expressed mitochondrial proteins modified by TMP in 3xTg-AD mice and APP/PS1 mice, respectively. These differential proteins were located in mitochondrial inner membrane, mitochondrial outer membrane, mitochondrial gap and mitochondrial matrix, and the function of some proteins is closely related to oxidative phosphorylation of (OXPHOS). Western-blot further validated that TMP changed the expression of OXPHOS complex proteins (sdhb, ndufa10, uqcrfs1, cox5b, atp5a) in the hippocampus of the two AD mice. Taken together, our study demonstrated that TMP improved the cognitive impairment and AD-like pathology, and modified hippocampal proteome in the two AD mice models. The improvement of the behavioral and pathology might be associated with modification of mitochondrial protein profile by TMP. Our study suggested that TMP had the potential for the treatment of AD.

Project description:Left-right asymmetry is a basic character of aging brain; however, the molecular foundation of the left-right asymmetry remains unclear. The morphology, physiology and behavior of rhesus aging are obviously similar to human aging, but the aging-rate of rhesus is roughly three times as fast as human, in which the underlying mechanism needs further investigation. By using of 6-plex tandem mass tag (TMT) labeling, we presented a high throughput quantitative proteomics analysis to 6 group hippocampal samples including left and right hippocampus from 3 years, 6 years and 20 years old rhesus. Our data identified 3391 high-confidence proteins. After screening, we found 340 aging-related proteins of left hippocampus and 334 aging-related proteins of right hippocampus, in which there were 114 overlap proteins. Furthermore, the aging-related proteome of left rhesus hippocampus aging was compared with human aging-related proteome of left hippocampus that was reported by our lab previously. As the results show, we discovered 446 aging-related proteins in rhesus and 830 aging-related proteins in human with an overlap of 106 proteins.
