Gene expression in classes of adult hippocampal precursor cells defined by ROS content

ABSTRACT: Regulating the cell cycle entry of neural stem cells (NSCs) is critical for continued adult neurogenesis and is extensively shown to be subject to environmental modulation. Here we demonstrate that pro-proliferative stimulation by physical activity is achieved by activating quiescent hippocampal precursors. Using independent approaches, we show that differential enrichment of endogenous ROS distinguishes this pool of activatable, quiescent cells. Endogenous ROS content clusters Nestin (Nes)-GFP+ precursor cells into heterogeneous cell populations with unique transcriptional identities and significant changes in ROS content precede gene expression changes and neurogenic commitment. A sub-optimal physical activity triggers a ROS surge exclusively in cells with high intracellular ROS content underpinning their recruitment into active growth cycle. These ROS dynamics are independent of mitochondrial function and are driven by the activity of NADPH oxidising enzyme Nox2. While baseline neurogenesis is unaffected, ROS fluctuations and the pro-neurogenic response to physical activity was abolished in Nox2-deficient mice.

A fatty acid oxidation-dependent metabolic shift regulates adult neural stem cell quiescence

Project description:Adult hippocampal neurogenesis is important for certain forms of cognition and failing neurogenesis has been implicated in neuropsychiatric diseases. The neurogenic capacity of hippocampal neural stem/progenitor cells (NSPCs) depends on a balance between quiescent and proliferative states. However, how this balance is regulated remains poorly understood. Here we show that the rate of fatty acid oxidation (FAO) defines quiescence vs. proliferation in NSPCs. Quiescent NSPCs show high levels of carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1a (Cpt1a)-dependent FAO, which is downregulated in proliferating NSPCs. Pharmacological inhibition and conditional deletion of Cpt1a in vitro and in vivo leads to altered NSPC behavior, showing that Cpt1a-dependent FAO is required for stem cell maintenance and proper neurogenesis. Strikingly, experimental manipulation of malonyl-CoA, the metabolite that regulates levels of FAO, is sufficient to induce exit from quiescence and to enhance NSPC proliferation. Thus, the data presented here identify a shift in FAO metabolism that governs NSPC behavior and suggest an instructive role for fatty acid metabolism in regulating NSPC activity.

Comprehensive proteome of the adult neural stem cell niche identifies key regulators of adult neurogenesis

Project description:Neural stem cells (NSCs) generating new neurons are restricted to few niches in the adult mammalian brain, while the remainder rather promotes gliogenesis. Here we take advantage of the spatial separation of an NSC niche (the subependymal zone) and the region to where the newly generated neurons migrate and integrate (the olfactory bulb). Using state-of-the-art mass spectrometry we present a comprehensive proteomic characterization of these niches compared to a region of the normal brain parenchyma (cerebral cortex) that is not contusive to neurogenesis and new neuron integration. We find unique compositions of regulatory ECM components in the neurogenic niche, with quiescent NSCs as a main source of their local ECM, including the multi-functional enzyme transglutaminase 2 that we identify as crucial for neurogenesis. Atomic force microscopy further corroborates indications from the proteome that neurogenic niches are significantly stiffer than the non-neurogenic parenchyma, highlighting the unique properties of these special niches.

Female Mice Lacking p47phox Have Altered Adipose Tissue Gene Expression and are Protected against High Fat-Induced Obesity and Metabolic Syndrome

Project description:Oxidative stress in adipose tissue and liver has been linked to the development of obesity. NADPH oxidases (NOX) enzymes are a major source of reactive oxygen species (ROS). The current study was designed to determine if NOX2-generated ROS play a role in development of obesity and metabolic syndrome after high fat feeding. Wild type (WT) mice and mice lacking the cytosolic NOX2 activated protein p47phox (P47KO) were fed AIN-93G diets or high fat diets (HFD) containing 45% fat and 0.5% cholesterol for 13 weeks from weaning. Affymetrix array analysis revealed dramatically less expression of mRNA of genes linked to energy metabolism, adipocyte differentiation (PPARM-NM-3, Runx2) and fatty acid uptake (CD36, lipoprotein lipase) in fat pads from female HFD-P47KO mice compared to HFD-WT females. These data suggest that NOX2 is an important regulator of metabolic homeostasis and that NOX2-associated ROS plays an important role in development of diet-induced obesity particularly in the female fat pads from p47phox and wild type fed a high fat or control diet

Blockade of ROS production inhibits oncogenic signaling in acute myeloid leukemia and amplifies response to precision therapies

Project description:Mutations in the type III receptor tyrosine kinase FLT3 are frequent in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and are associated with a poor prognosis. AML is characterized by the overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which can induce cysteine oxidation in redox-sensitive signaling proteins. Here, we sought to characterize the specific pathways affected by ROS in AML by assessing oncogenic signaling in primary AML samples. The oxidation or phosphorylation of signaling proteins that mediate growth and proliferation was increased in samples from patient subtypes with FLT3 mutations. These samples also showed increases in the oxidation of proteins in the ROS-producing Rac/NADPH oxidase-2 (NOX2) complex. Inhibition of NOX2 increased the apoptosis of FLT3-mutant AML cells in response to FLT3 inhibitors. NOX2 inhibition also reduced the phosphorylation and cysteine oxidation of FLT3 in patient-derived xenograft mouse models, suggesting that decreased oxidative stress reduces the oncogenic signaling of FLT3. In mice grafted with FLT3 mutant AML cells, treatment with a NOX2 inhibitor reduced the number of circulating cancer cells, and combining FLT3 and NOX2 inhibitors increased survival to a greater extent than either treatment alone. Together, these data raise the possibility that combining NOX2 and FLT3 inhibitors could improve the treatment of FLT3 mutant AML.

Activation of quiescent neurogenic niches of aging brain

Project description:Proposals for induced glia-to-neuron conversion have raised the potential for generating new neurons to replace those lost due to injury, aging or neurodegenerative diseases. Here, single-cell spatial transcriptomics [Multiplexed Error Robust Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization (MERFISH)] is used to construct a spatial cell atlas of the subventricular and dentate gyrus neurogenic niches of young and aged adult murine brain. RNAs that encode the RNA binding protein Polypyrimidine Tract-Binding Protein (PTBP1) in the aged murine brain are determined to be highest in glia that line previously active neurogenic niches. A glial cell population with ependymal character within an initially quiescent subventricular neurogenic niche in the aged murine brain is identified that upon transient suppression of PTBP1 reenters the cell cycle, replicates DNA, and converts into neurons through a canonical adult neurogenesis pathway. Glia-derived neurons migrate from this niche, with some neurons transiting to the striatum and acquiring a transcriptome characteristic of GABAergic inhibitory neurons. Similar PTBP1 expressing quiescent glia are identified in the corresponding neurogenic niche of aged human brain. Thus, transient reduction of PTBP1 holds potential for inducing the generation of new neurons in quiescent neurogenic niches of the aged nervous system, thereby offering promising therapeutic applications.

Mitochondrial respiration is necessary to combat oxidative stress in quiescent cells

Project description:Mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) makes ATP and supports biosynthesis during proliferation, but its role in non-proliferating cells, beyond ATP production, is less understood. Here we show that OXPHOS protects quiescent (but not proliferating) cells from oxidative stress. Using in vivo models of OXPHOS deficiency (whole body and endothelium-specific) we show that OXPHOS mediated resistance to ROS (i) maintains selectivity of ROS-based anticancer therapy by protecting normal tissues during treatment, and in quiescent endothelium (ii) ameliorates systemic LPS-induced inflammation and (iii) attenuates symptoms of the inflammatory bowel disease. ROS-resistance provided by OXPHOS is independent of its role in biosynthesis or NADH recycling. Instead, in quiescent cells OXPHOS constitutively generates low levels of endogenous ROS that support basal autophagic flux and protect from exogenous ROS challenge. Hence, during evolution cells acquired mitochondria to profit from oxidative metabolism, but also built in an OXPHOS-dependent mechanism to guard against the resulting oxidative stress.

Transcription profiling of mouse functionally distinct radial glial subsets

Project description:Since the discovery of radial glia as the source of neurons, their heterogeneity in regard to neurogenesis has been described by clonal and time-lapse analysis in vitro. However, the molecular determinants specifying neurogenic radial glia differently from radial glia that mostly self-renew remain ill-defined. Here, we isolated two radial glial subsets that co-exist at mid-neurogenesis in the developing cerebral cortex and their immediate progeny. While one subset generates neurons directly, the other is largely non-neurogenic but also gives rise to Tbr2-positive basal precursors, thereby contributing indirectly to neurogenesis. Isolation of ; these distinct radial glia subtypes allowed determining interesting differences in their transcriptome. These transcriptomes were also strikingly different from the transcriptome of radial glia isolated at the end of neurogenesis. This analysis therefore identifies, for the first time, the lineage origin of basal progenitors and the molecular differences of this lineage in comparison to directly neurogenic and gliogenic radial glia. Experiment Overall Design: Comparison of radial glial subtypes

Klf9 regulates neural stem cell activation and expansion in the adult hippocampus

Project description:Experience governs neurogenesis from radial-glial neural stem cells (RGLs) in the adult hippocampus to support memory. Transcription factors in RGLs integrate physiological signals to dictate quiescence-activation decisions and self-renewal divisions. Whereas asymmetric RGL self-renewal drives neurogenesis during favorable conditions, symmetric divisions prevent premature neurogenesis during unfavorable conditions while amplifying RGLs to anticipate neurogenic demands when conditions become favorable. Here, we show that the transcription factor Kruppel-like factor 9 (Klf9) is enriched in quiescent RGLs and inducible, bidirectional modulation of Klf9 biases RGL quiescence-activation decisions. Clonal lineage tracing and longitudinal intravital two-photon imaging of RGLs following cell-autonomous Klf9 deletion directly demonstrated increased symmetric self-renewal. In vivo translational profiling of RGLs identified a Klf9-dependent blueprint for genetic and metabolic programs instructing RGL quiescence and expansion. Thus, experience dependent regulation of Klf9 in RGLs may ensure self-preservation of neural stem cells while anticipating future demands for neurogenesis and astrogenesis to support hippocampal functions.
