Genome-Wide Sequencing Reveals Small Nucleolar RNAs Downregulated in Cerebral Cavernous Malformations

ABSTRACT: Cerebral cavernous malformations (CCM) are vascular malformations associated with abnormally dilated blood vessels and leaky capillaries that often result in hemorrhages. Despite recent advances, precise understanding of the cellular and molecular mechanism leading to the pathogenesis of CCM remains elusive. Emerging evidence indicates that small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs), belonging to the class of non-coding RNAs, may play a significant role as diagnostic markers in human diseases. However, there is no report till date that studied the role of snoRNAs in CCM biology. The objective of the current study was to identify snoRNAs associated with CCM pathogenesis. Using genome-wide small RNA sequencing, we identified a total of 271 snoRNAs reliably expressed in CCM. By applying additional statistical stringency, three snoRNAs (SNORD115-32, SNORD114-22 and SNORD113-3) were found to be significantly downregulated in CCM patient tissue samples (n = 3) as compared to healthy brains (n = 3). Deregulation of the selected snoRNAs was further validated by qRT-PCR. Further, cellular localization via in situ hybridization also confirmed robust reduction in the expression of SNORD115-32 and SNORD114-22 in CCM tissues as compared to the healthy controls. By applying high throughput sequencing and cellular localization analyses, we report here for the first time the genome-wide expression profile of snoRNAs in CCM tissues and a robust downregulation of candidate snoRNAs in CCM conditions. Future studies should warrant the screening in large CCM patient cohorts and will be helpful in the development of potential biomarkers and improved clinical diagnosis.

Systems Biology Proteomic Analysis of Cerebral Cavernous Malformation

Project description:Cerebral cavernous malformations are vascular anomalies that can cause hemorrhagic stroke. Mutations in genes encoding Krit 1 (CCM1), OSM (CCM2), and PDCD10 (CCM3) proteins cause CCM. A loss in teh expression of any of these CCM proteins disrupts normal cerebral vessel development by disrupting the cytoskeleton and thereby inhibits endothelial tube ofrmation. Examination of cellular changes based on the loss of CCM gene expression may lead to the methods for early detection and prevention of CCM associated hemorrhagic stroke.

Developmental Venous Anomalies are a Genetic Primer for Cerebral Cavernous Malformations

Project description:Purpose: Cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs) are hemorrhagic neurovascular malformations that may lead to stroke, seizures and other clinical sequelae. Recent studies have shown that somatic mutations in MAP3K3 and PIK3CA also contribute to CCM pathogenesis; however, it remains unclear how these mutations contribute to sporadic versus familial cases. In our previous research, we’ve shown that co-occurring MAP3K3 and PIK3CA mutations are present within the same clonal population of cells. The overall goal of this study was to identify PIK3CA mutations in CCM-associated developmental venous anomalies (DVA). We also analyzed the plasma miRNome of patients with (1) DVA without associated CCM, as well as (2) DVA with an associated CCM) to identify circulating miRNAs that might serve as biomarkers reflecting PIK3CA activity. Methods: We collected and sequenced the plasma miRNome of 12 individuals with a sporadic CCM associated with a DVA (CCM + DVA), 6 individuals with a DVA without a CCM (DVA only), and 7 healthy controls. Results: We found that the identical PIK3CA mutation is found in endothelial cells of both the DVA and its associated CCM, but that an activating MAP3K3 mutation appears only in the CCM. The analyses miR-134-5p was downregulated in the groups of patients with only a DVA only group (when compared to healthy controls). This miRNA has been shown to target PIK3CA. In addition, miR-182-5p, was upregulated and targets MAP3K3; while let-7c-5p was downregulated and targets both PIK3CA and MAP3K3 in the group of patients with CCM and an associated DVA (when compared to DVA only). Conclusions: These results support a mechanism where DVA develop as the result of a PIK3CA mutation, creating a region of the brain vasculature that functions as a genetic primer for CCM development following acquisition of an additional somatic mutation.

Cerebral Cavernous Malformation Proteins and MEKK3 Coordinately Modulate SMURF1 Abundance to Control RhoA-dependent Endothelial Cell Phenotypic State

Project description:Cerebral Cavernous Malformations (CCM), caused by loss of CCM1, CCM2 or CCM3 in endothelial cells (ECs), are leaky capillaries causing seizures and stroke. CCM protein loss gives overlapping changes in biomechanical and transcriptional properties of ECs, due to common RhoA-driven alterations in cytoskeletal organization and intracellular signaling. However, EC models of 3-D tube formation show loss of each CCM protein generates distinct morphological defects in tubular structures. Computational modeling, live-cell imaging and RNA sequencing revealed distinct functional roles of CCM1 and CCM3 in regulating EC-EC and EC-matrix interactions. CCM2 has an intermediate phenotype consistent with its interaction with CCM1 and CCM3. In ECs, CCM proteins regulate SMURF1 E3 ligase ubiquitination and degradation of RhoA. Loss of CCM proteins results in loss of SMURF1 and a concomitant increase of MEKK3, a negative regulator of SMURF1 expression. We propose CCM lesions develop because of dysregulated SMURF1 resulting in RhoA and MEKK3 gain-of-function.

A mechano-dependent senescence associated secretory phenotype triggers the recruitment of endothelial and immune cells by Cerebral Cavernous Malformation 2 deficient endothelial cells

Project description:Cerebral Cavernous Malformations (CCM) is a cerebrovascular disease in which stacks of dilated haemorrhagic blood-filled capillaries form focally in the brain. Endothelial loss-of-function mutations on any of the three CCM genes (CCM1-3) are responsible for the familial form of the disease. Whether and how the defective mechanotransduction, inflammatory response and mosaic state characteristic of these lesions interplay to sustain the progression of CCM diseases is unknown. Here, we show that CCM1- and CCM2-silenced endothelial cells enter into a senescence associated with secretory phenotype (SASP) that they use to invade the extracellular matrix and attract surrounding wild-type endothelial and immune cells. Further, we demonstrate that this SASP is driven by the mechanical and molecular disorders provoked by ROCKs dysfunctions when CCM2 is lost. This discovery reconciles all the known dysregulated traits of CCM1/2-deficient endothelial cells into a unique mechano-dependent SASP that links perturbed cellular mechanics to microenvironment remodelling and long-range activation of WT endothelial and immune cells.

Gene expression profile after CCM1 over expression in human umbilical vein endothelial cells

Project description:CCM1 (also known as KRIT1) is critical regulator of endothelial cell biology. Mutations in CCM1 can lead to the formation of cerebral cavernous malformations (CCM). CCM lesions are frequent in the human population; however, their pathogenesis is poorly understood. This genome-wide expression analysis is aimed to unravelling novel mechanisms how CCM1 executes its functions in endothelial cells. We used human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) as a model system to study CCM1 functions after adenoviral over expression. The results of this experiment suggest that CCM1 is a critical regulator of endothelial cell cycle control and proliferation as well as migration and angiogenesis. This fits well to the roles of CCM1 in HUVEC which indeed acts as a negative regulator of angiogenesis. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells were transduced with adenovirus expressing CCM1 or GFP as control. 48 hours after transduction total RNA was isolated from duplicates for genome-wide expression analysis biological replicate: GFP rep1, GFP rep2 biological replicate: CCM1 rep1, CCM1 rep2

Thrombospondin1 replacement prevents cerebral cavernos malformations

Project description:We have purified primary brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMEC) from mice bearing floxed alleles of Krit1 (Krit1fl/fl) and an endothelial specific tamoxifen-regulated Cre recombinase (Pdgfb-iCreERT2), and used these to delete Krit1 in a time-controlled manner (Krit1ECKO). To elucidate the pathogenesis of cerebral cavernous malformations (CCM) we used genome-wide RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) to characterize the transcriptome of primary BMEC following acute genetic inactivation of Krit1.

Expression profiling in brain microvascular endothelial cells and astrocytes in mouse models of Cranial Cavernous Malformation disease

Project description:Cerebral Cavernous Malformations (CCMs) are neurovascular lesions caused by loss-of-function mutations in one of three genes, including KRIT1 (CCM1), CCM2, and PDCD10 (CCM3). Following onset, disease severity ranges from minimal vascular defects to numerous vascular dilations (lesions) distributed throughout the brain. Although the precise pathogenic mechanisms resulting in such a broad range of disease severity are unknown, inter-cellular communication between heterogeneous brain cell types including microvascular endothelial cells, astrocytes, and neurons are likely important in disease progression. To further understand these cell type relationships in the context of CCM, Riboseq was performed in astroctytes and mRNA expression profiling was performed from whole brain extracts as well as isolated brain microvascular endothelial cells.

CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing demonstrates that CCM3 modulates endothelial miRNA expression

Project description:CCM3 regulates blood-brain-barrier integrity and vascular maturation in vivo. CCM3 loss-of-function variants predispose to cerebral cavernous malformations (CCM). Various signalling pathways are deregulated upon CCM3 depletion in endothelial cells (ECs). In this study, we established a crRNA:tracrRNA:Cas9 RNP approach to efficiently knockout CCM3 in human ECs and studied the molecular and functional effects of its long-term inactivation. Using small RNA sequencing, we show that CCM3 regulates the expression of aging‑associated miRNAs.

Nuclear Export Factor 3 Regulates Localization of Small Nucleolar RNAs

Project description:Small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) guide chemical modifications of ribosomal and small nuclear RNAs, functions that are carried out in the nucleus. While most snoRNAs reside in the nucleolus, a growing body of evidence indicates that snoRNAs are also present in the cytoplasm and that snoRNAs move between the nucleus and cytoplasm by a mechanism that is regulated by lipotoxic and oxidative stress. Here, in a genome-wide shRNA-based screen, we identified nuclear export factor 3 (NXF3) as a transporter that alters the nucleocytoplasmic distribution of box C/D snoRNAs from the ribosomal protein L13a (Rpl13a) locus. Using RNA-sequencing analysis, we show that NXF3 associates not only with Rpl13a snoRNAs, but also with a broad range of box C/D and box H/ACA snoRNAs. Under homeostatic conditions, gain or loss of function of NXF3, but not related family member NXF1, decreases or increases cytosolic Rpl13a snoRNAs, respectively. Furthermore, treatment with the adenylyl cyclase activator forskolin diminishes cytosolic localization of the Rpl13a snoRNAs through a mechanism that is dependent on NXF3, but not NXF1. Our results provide evidence of a new role for NXF3 in regulating the distribution of snoRNAs between the nuclear and cytoplasmic compartments.
