Epitranscriptomic m6A Regulation of Axon Regeneration in the Adult Mammalian Nervous System

ABSTRACT: N6-methyladenosine (m6A) affects multiple aspects of mRNA metabolism and regulates developmental transitions by promoting mRNA decay. Little is known about the role of m6A in the adult mammalian nervous system. Here we report that sciatic nerve lesion elevates levels of m6A-tagged transcripts encoding many regeneration-associated genes and protein translation machinery components in the adult mouse dorsal root ganglion (DRG). Single base resolution m6A-CLIP mapping further reveals a dynamic m6A landscape in the adult DRG upon injury. Loss of either m6A methyltransferase complex component Mettl14 or m6A-binding protein Ythdf1 globally attenuates injury induced protein translation in adult DRGs and reduces functional axon regeneration in the peripheral nervous system in vivo. Furthermore, Pten deletion-induced axon regeneration of retinal ganglion neurons in the adult central nervous system is attenuated upon Mettl14 knockdown. Our study reveals a critical epitranscriptomic mechanism in promoting injury-induced protein synthesis and axon regeneration in the adult mammalian nervous system.

Robust axonal regeneration occurs in the injured CAST/Ei mouse central nervous system

Project description:Axon regeneration in the central nervous system (CNS) requires reactivating injured neurons’ intrinsic growth state and enabling growth in an inhibitory environment. Using an inbred mouse neuronal phenotypic screen, we find that CAST/Ei mouse adult dorsal root ganglion neurons extend axons more on CNS myelin than the other eight strains tested, especially when pre-injured. Injury-primed CAST/Ei neurons also regenerate markedly in the spinal cord and optic nerve more than those from C57BL/6 mice and show greater spouting following ischemic stroke. Heritability estimates indicate that extended growth in CAST/Ei neurons on myelin is genetically determined, and two whole-genome expression screens yield the Activin transcript Inhba as most correlated with this ability. These screens are presented here. Biological quadruplicate - Mouse tissue - Naïve Dorsal Root Ganglia (DRG) and 5 day post sciatic nerve crush DRG - x9 strains.

Histone methyltransferase Ezh2 coordinates mammalian axon regeneration via regulation of key regenerative pathways (RNA-Seq II)

Project description:Current treatments for neurodegenerative diseases and neural injuries fall short of success. One primary reason is that neurons in the mammalian central nervous system (CNS) lose their regeneration ability as they mature. Here, we investigated the role of Ezh2, a histone methyltransferase, in regulation of mammalian axon regeneration. We found that Ezh2 declined in the mouse nervous system during maturation but was upregulated in adult dorsal root ganglion neurons to support spontaneous axon regeneration following peripheral nerve injury. In addition, overexpression of Ezh2 in retinal ganglion cells in the CNS promoted optic nerve regeneration via both histone methylation-dependent and -independent mechanisms. Further investigation revealed that Ezh2 supported axon regeneration by systematically silencing the transcription of genes regulating synaptic function and inhibiting axon regeneration, while simultaneously activating various axon regeneration promoting factors. In particular, our study demonstrated that the GABA transporter 2 encoded by the gene Slc6a13 acted downstream of Ezh2 to control axon regeneration. Our study suggested that modulating chromatin accessibility was a promising strategy to promote CNS axon regeneration.

Sciatic nerve injury-responsive differential mRNA profile and ribosome association efficiency of injury-induced mRNA

Project description:After nerve injury in the pheripheral nervous system, axon regeneration occurs through transcriptomic changes in neuronal cell bodies. To investigate which protein-coding transcripts are up-regulated and directed to ribosomes or not, we used RiboTag+/+;Advillin-Cre+ mice, expressing HA-tagged RPL22 specifically in sensory neurons, to profile their ribosome binding RNAs in nerve injured or uninjured dorsal root ganglion(DRG) tissues using HA-IP sequencing. We analyzed the results together with total RNA transcriptomics conducted under the same conditions. Through this analysis, we found mRNA of Gpr151 gene, one of the transcript that highly responds to injury but does not direct to the ribosomes, promoting axon regeneration by a non-coding RNA function.

Self-renewing macrophages in dorsal root ganglia contribute to promote nerve regeneration

Project description:Primary sensory neurons with cell soma in dorsal root ganglia (DRG) project axons in both the peripheral nervous system and the spinal cord. Whereas the peripheral axon can regenerate after injury, the central axon cannot, providing an opportunity to identify the mechanisms that promote axon regeneration. Using this system, multiple intrinsic mechanisms operating in sensory neurons have been shown to promote axon regeneration. Peripheral sensory neurons also benefit from a supportive environment. In particular, macrophages play important roles in nerve regeneration by clearing debris and regulating Schwann cell function at the site of injury in the nerve. Nerve macrophages have been characterized at the molecular level and derive for the most part from infiltrating monocytes. However, the role and origin of macrophages in the DRG remains poorly understood. Following a 14-days treatment with a CSF1R inhibitor, less than 10% of macrophages remained in the DRG. Recovery from this treatment resulted in a dramatic macrophage repopulation, with the number of DRG macrophages reaching level similar to untreated mice three days post injury. These repopulated DRG macrophages contribute to promote axon regeneration. Our scRNA-seq analysis allow in-depth characterization of the repopulated DRG macrophages in response to nerve injury. These data will provide a better understanding of DRG macrophages and the molecular mechanisms by which they contribute to peripheral nerve repair. These studies may lead to new potential targets to promote axon regeneration.

Sc-RNA seq for intrinsic mechanisms of distinct axonal growth capacity in different peripheral sensory neuron subtypes

Project description:Dorsal root ganglion neurons are the primary neurons of the sensory afferent pathway and are a heterogeneous population. Dorsal root ganglion neurons exhibit a wide range of terminal morphologies, complex central projection patterns, and different physiological properties, which allow them to adapt to various sensory stimulation modalities and transmit the corresponding sensory information to the central nervous system. Here, we used single-cell sequencing technology to explore the mechanisms behind the differences in axonal lengths in DRG neurons cultured in vitro. The single-cell sequencing data grouped by axon length were compared and analyzed to find core genes that may be closely related to axon length in a list of differentially expressed genes that significantly change with axon length; as well as to explore whether these genes also play an important role in the process of axon regeneration after peripheral nerve injury.

Sustained axon regeneration induced by a synergy of PTEN and SOCS3 deletion

Project description:A formidable challenge in neural repair in the adult central nervous system (CNS) is the long distances that regenerating axons often need to travel in order to reconnect with their targets. Thus, a sustained capacity for axon regeneration is critical for achieving functional restoration. Although deletion of either Phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN), a negative regulator of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), or suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 (SOCS3), a negative regulator of Janus kinase/signal transducers and activators of transcription (JAK/STAT) pathway, in adult retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) individually promoted significant optic nerve regeneration, such regrowth tapered off around two weeks after the crush injury. Remarkably, we now find that simultaneous deletion of both PTEN and SOCS3 enable robust and sustained axon regeneration. We further show that PTEN and SOCS3 regulate two independent pathways that act synergistically to promote enhanced axon regeneration. Gene expression analyses suggest that double deletion not only result in the induction of many growth-related genes, but also allow RGCs to maintain the expression of a repertoire of genes at the physiological level after injury. Our results reveal concurrent activation of mTOR and STAT3 pathways as a key for sustaining long-distance axon regeneration in adult CNS, a crucial step toward functional recovery. RNAs were extracted from FACS sorted YFP positive mouse retinal cells, and gene-profiled using affymetrix 1.0 ST expression arrays. Three hybridizations were performed for each group (Wild type after crush, PTEN Knockout+crush, SOCS3 Knockout+crush, and PTEN/SOCS3 double knockout+crush) with RNA samples collected from three independent FACS purifications. Data were analyzed using dChIP and SAM.
