SmallRNA-sequencing reveals microRNAs as endogenous Toll-like receptor ligands causing neuroinflammation

ABSTRACT: To identify microRNAs as TLR-activating molecules we have induced apoptosis in primary cortical neurons to trigger specific microRNA release into media. smallRNA sequencing revealed potential microRNAs ligands derived from dying neurons and their corresponding media that harbor already described TLR7/8 activating sequences. In line with this finding, about 80% of our differentially present miRNAs were able to activate TLR7/8 reporter cell lines. Furthermore, microRNAs miR-340-3p and miR-132-5p induced a specific cytokine and chemokine release form microglia leading to neuronal death. Within our systematic approach, we have identified TLR paralog-specific activating microRNAs with the potential to serve as biomarkers for brain diseases.

Suppression of LBR by miR-340 disrupts chromatin, promotes cell senescence, and enhances senolysis (RNA-Seq 2)

Project description:One of the cellular processes influenced by microRNAs is senescence, a state of indefinite growth arrest triggered by sublethal cell damage. Here, through bioinformatic analysis and experimental validation, we identified miR-340-5p as a novel miRNA that foments cellular senescence. miR340-5p was highly abundant in diverse senescence models, and miR-340-5p overexpression in proliferating cells rendered them senescent. Among the target mRNAs, miR-340-5p prominently reduced the levels of LBR mRNA, encoding Lamin B Receptor (LBR). Loss of LBR by ectopic overexpression of miR-340-5p derepressed heterochromatin in lamina-associated domains (LADs), promoting the expression of DNA repetitive elements characteristic of senescence. Importantly, overexpressing miR-340-5p enhanced cellular sensitivity to senolytic compounds, while antagonization of miR-340-5p reduced senescent-cell markers and engendered resistance to senolytic-induced cell death. We propose that miR-340-5p can be exploited for clearing senescent cells to restore tissue homeostasis and mitigate damage by senescent cells in aging human pathologies.

Suppression of LBR by miR-340 disrupts chromatin, promotes cell senescence, and enhances senolysis (ATAC-Seq)

Project description:The goal of this study was to identify accessible chromatin peaks in lamina-associated domains of senescent cells.

Exosomal miR - 21 causes neurotoxicity via TLR7 signaling in SIV neurological disease.

Project description:Exosomes from the brains of rhesus macaques were isolated and characterized, both with and without simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) induced central nervous system (CNS) disease. Small RNA sequencing revealed that exosomes from the brains of animals with CNS disease contained significantly increased miR-21, a microRNA we have previously shown to be significantly increased in both SIV and HIV induced CNS disease. In addition to neurons in the brain, macrophage/microglial cells/nodules also express miR-21 during SIV induced CNS disease. In vitro culture of macrophages revealed that miR-21 is released into exosomes, and exosomes from macrophage cultures produced from WT, but not miR-21-/- KO, animals are neurotoxic. We find this neurotoxicity is dependent upon exosome carriage of miR-21, and mutation of the sequence within miR-21 predicted to bind TLR7 eliminates this neurotoxicity. Indeed exosomal miR-21 activates TLR7 in a reporter cell line, and the neurotoxicity of exosomal miR-21 is dependent upon TLR7, as neurons isolated from TLR7-/- KO mice are protected from neurotoxicity. Finally, we show that exosomes isolated from the brains of monkeys with SIV induced CNS disease both activate TLR7 and are neurotoxic when compared to exosomes from control animals.

T cells activated in the presence or absence of TLR agonists

Project description:We report the gene expression differences between OT-1 T cells activated alone or in the presence of TLR1/2 (Pam3CSK4) or TLR7 (Gardiquimod). By activating OT-1 splenocytes in the presence or absence of the TLR agonists, isolating RNA from purified CD8+ T cells we show that cells activated in the presence of either TLR1/2 or TLR7 agonists had similar transcriptional profiles demonstrating an increase in Th1 cytokine expression over cells that were activated alone. This study provides a key piece of information for those designing T cell mediated therapies.

RAW246.1 cells activation by internalized synthetic miR-122

Project description:Hepatic injury is often accompanied by pulmonary inflammation and tissue damage, but the underneath mechanism is not fully elucidated. Here we identify hepatic miR-122 as a culprit of pulmonary inflammation induced by various liver injuries. Analyses of acute and chronic liver injury mouse models confirm that liver dysfunction can cause pulmonary inflammation and tissue damage. Injured livers release large amounts of miR-122 in a microvesicle-independent manner into the circulation compared to normal livers. Circulating miR-122 is then preferentially transported to mouse lungs and taken up by alveolar macrophages, in which it binds toll-like receptor 7 (TLR7) and activates inflammatory responses. Depleting plasma miR-122 largely abolishes liver injury-induced pulmonary inflammation and tissue damage. Furthermore, alveolar macrophage activation by miR-122 is blocked by mutating the TLR7-binding UG-rich sequence on miR-122 or knocking out macrophage TLR7. Our findings reveal a novel causative role of hepatic miR-122 in liver injury-induced pulmonary dysfunction.

Gene profiling in the colon after depletion and activation of TLR3 and TLR7 signals

Project description:TLR3 and TLR7 are critical recognition receptor which reacts with viruses. TLR3 and TLR7 contribute to many immunological pathway. Especially, TLR3 and TLR7 are clearly involved in the regulation of innate immunity in the gut. To identify the downstream target of TLR 3 and TLR7 in the IBD, we carried out microarray. The colon tissues were isolated from four different groups. None-no treatment, after DSS treated, after DSS+antiviral treatment, after DSS+TLR3+7 agonists.
