Identification of circulating microRNA signatures as potential biomarkers in the serum of elk infected with chronic wasting disease

ABSTRACT: Purpose: Idenfication of microRNA biomarkers of Chronic wasting disease in serum from infected elk Methods: Illumina next generation was used to profile abundance of serum miRNA in elk naturally infected with chronic wasting disease and Hamsters experimentally infected with the 263K scrapie prion strains Results: A signature of 21 miRNAs with diagnostic potential was found to be altered in abundance in serum from CWD infected elk. Of these, 6 were similarily altered in the serum from the 263K infected hamsters Conclusion: These altered miRNA signatures may serve as the basis for non-invasive diagnostic assays for chronic wasting disease and may shed light on the pathogenesis of prion infection

miRNA profiling of putative biomarker candidates in Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis-infected cattle

Project description:Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) causes Johne’s disease that is a chronic wasting disease in ruminants. Spread of MAP is mainly provoked by a long subclinical stage during which MAP is shed into the environment with feces; accordingly, detection of subclinical animals is very important to its control. Therefore, the current diagnostic methods are not suitable for detection of subclinical animals. In this study, we conducted to develop a diagnostic method for analysis of the expression of genes of prognostic potential biomarker candidates in cattle naturally infected with MAP. We conducted miRNA-Seq to evaluate potential biomarker candidates. Experimental animals were divided into four groups based on fecal MAP PCR, serum ELISA, and clinical sign.

Hypolipidemic effects of Tamarindus indica fruit pulp extract

Project description:In this study, the hypolipidemic effects of Tamarindus indica fruit pulp extract (Tifpe) in the serum obtained from diet-induced hypercholesterolemic hamsters were investigated using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and mass spectrometry. Significantly altered levels of serum proteins were validated using ELISA. Hamsters fed with Tifpe, both in the absence and presence of high-cholesterol diet, were shown to have significantly reduced levels of serum triglyceride, LDL-C and total cholesterol. The Tifpe fed non-hypercholesterolemic hamsters also showed significant enhanced levels of serum apolipoprotein A1 (APOA1), antithrombin III (ATIII), transferrin (TF), transthyretin and vitamin D binding protein (VDBP). In diet-induced hypercholesterolemic hamsters, APOA1, ATIII and TF, which were relatively low in levels, became significantly enhanced when the hamsters were fed with Tifpe. These Tifpe-fed hypercholesterolemic hamsters also showed significant higher levels of serum VDBP. Ingenuity Pathway Analysis of the Tifpe modulated serum proteins singled out “Lipid metabolism, molecular transport, small molecule biochemistry” as the top network. Our results suggest that the hypolipidemic effects of Tifpe are associated with alterations of serum proteins that are known to be cardioprotective and involved in the metabolism of lipids.

Systemic Epigenome-Wide Association Study of Elk Treponeme- Associated Hoof Disease

Project description:Treponeme-associated hoof disease (TAHD) is an emerging disease of elk (Cervus canadensis) in the U.S. Pacific West. Because environmental epigenetics is the primary molecular process that mediates environmental factor impacts on a host organism and disease, the role of epigenetics in TAHD etiology was examined. The current study was designed to examine potential effects of TAHD on systemic epigenetic modifications in infected elk over a range of TAHD lesion severity. Leg tendons that contain predominantly fibroblast connective tissue cells were used to isolate fibroblast cells for epigenetic analysis in unaffected and TAHD-positive male and female Roosevelt and Rocky Mountain elk. DNA methylation in the tendon cells in the different groups was examined. Differential DNA methylation regions (DMRs) between the unaffected and TAHD-positive were identified for both female and male elk. The presence of TAHD was associated with alteration of the connective tissue cell epigenetics and DMR associated genes identified. Therefore, the infected elk were found to have a systemic epigenetic alteration that was associated with the disease despite TAHD pathology being generally limited to feet. Other cell populations with the elk are also anticipated to be affected, and if the elk germline epigenetics is altered then generational transmission of susceptibility to TAHD may impact subsequent generations through epigenetic inheritance. This first study of epigenetic changes associated with disease in elk suggests that TAHD promotes a systemic effect on the elk epigenetics which could exert health impacts on the elk.

Early epigenomic and transcriptional changes reveal Elk-1 transcription factor as a therapeutic target in Huntington’s disease [ChIP-seq]

Project description:Huntington’s disease (HD) is a chronic neurodegenerative disorder characterized by a late clinical onset despite ubiquitous expression of the mutant Huntingtin gene (HTT) from birth. Transcriptional dysregulation is a pivotal feature of HD. Yet, the genes that are altered in the prodromal period and their regulators, which present opportunities for therapeutic intervention, remain to be elucidated. Using transcriptional and chromatin profiling, we found aberrant transcription and changes in histone H3K27 acetylation in the striatum of R6/1 mice during the presymptomatic disease stages. Integrating these data, we identified the Elk-1 transcription factor as a candidate regulator of prodromal changes in HD. Exogenous expression of Elk-1 exerted beneficial effects in a primary striatal cell culture model of HD, and adeno-associated virus-mediated Elk-1 overexpression alleviated transcriptional dysregulation in R6/1 mice. Collectively, our work demonstrates that aberrant gene expression precedes overt disease onset in HD, identifies the Elk-1 transcription factor as a key regulator linked to early epigenetic and transcriptional changes in HD, and presents evidence for Elk-1 as a target for alleviating molecular pathology in HD.

Whole blood gene expression profiling in preclinical and clinical cattle infected with atypical bovine spongiform encephalopathy.

Project description:The molecular events at the basis of prion diseases are characterized by the involvement of several genes which are differentially regulated during the onset and the progression of the infection. Gene expression profiling studies are a powerful tool for the development of preclinical diagnostic tests. Most of the studies performed up to date utilized tissues which are not suitable for a future perspective of a rapid analysis of the infected animals and patients. We used microarrays to identify the differentially regulated transcripts in blood of BSE-infected cattle in both the presymtomatic and the symptomatic stage of the infection. The identified genes may be used as a signature for prion diseases.

Prions induce an early Arc response in the hippocampus of prion-infected mice

Project description:Synapse dysfunction and synaptic loss are a central feature of neurodegenerative disorders, including prion disease. The cellular prion protein (PrPC) binds prion, amyloid-β, tau, and α-synuclein oligomers, resulting in the activation of macromolecular complexes and signaling at the post-synapse, yet the initial signaling events are unclear. Here we used a transcriptomic approach focused on the early-stage, prion-infected hippocampus of male wild type mice, and identify immediate early genes, including the synaptic activity response gene, Arc/Arg3.1, as significantly upregulated. In a longitudinal study of the prion-infected hippocampus, Arc/Arg-3.1 protein increased, from early to terminal disease. Notably, metabotropic glutamate receptor levels (mGluR5 dimers) were markedly reduced over time, while phosphorylated AMPA receptors (pGluA1-S845) levels increased. Sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (sCJD) post-mortem cortical samples also showed low levels of mGluR5 dimers. Together, these findings suggest that prions trigger a chronic Arc response, an increase in phosphorylated GluA1, and a reduction in mGluR5 receptors beginning in early disease.

Neurons and astrocytes elicit brain region specific transcriptional responses to prion disease in the murine CA1 and thalamus

Project description:Progressive dysfunction and loss of neurons ultimately culminates in the symptoms and eventual fatality of prion disease, yet the pathways and mechanisms that lead to neuronal degeneration remain elusive. Here, we used RNAseq to profile transcriptional changes in microdissected CA1 and thalamus brain tissues from prion infected mice. Numerous transcripts were altered during clinical disease, whereas very few transcripts were reliably altered at pre-clinical time points. Prion altered transcripts were assigned to broadly defined brain cell types and we noted a strong transcriptional signature that was affiliated with reactive microglia and astrocytes. While very few neuronal transcripts were common between the CA1 and thalamus, we described transcriptional changes in both regions that were related to synaptic dysfunction. Using transcriptional profiling to compare how different neuronal populations respond during prion disease may help decipher mechanisms that lead to neuronal demise and should be investigated with greater detail.
