Systematic analysis of purified astrocytes after spinal cord injury unveils lncRNA Zeb2os as a novel molecular target for astrogliosis [RNA-Seq]

Project description:Astrocytes are the predominant component of the scar and play crucial roles in spinal cord injury (SCI) at acute injury stage. Understanding the complex reactive astroglial contributions to SCI pathophysiologies is important for developing therapeutic strategies. To understand the mechanisms of astrogliosis in SCI, and to identify novel molecular targets to improve the injury environment and axonal regeneration, we have studied gene expression changes in SCI epicenter tissue using RNA-Seq at chronic stages (1 month and 3 months) in mouse moderate contusive injury models. Importantly, we have also FACS purified cells successfully from adult spinal cord using transgenic mice and generated RNA-Seq results for both acute (7 days) and chronic (1 month and 3 months) injury stages. The SCI RNA-Seq analysis provided valuable information on the gene expression in injury environment and astrocytes after SCI. In addition to protein coding genes, we were the first to systematically analyze the expression profiles of Long Noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in SCI and purified astrocytes. We have tested a number of candidates and found gene of interest Zeb2os which is a highly conserved lncRNA in human. Zeb2os expression has high correlation with an essential transcription factor (TF) in astrogliosis, Stat3, and its antisense protein coding gene Zeb2. Furthermore, our ChIP-seq experiment showed STAT3 bound to Zeb2 promoter region, thus Zeb2os may regulate Zeb2 and Stat3 directly or indirectly and STAT3 may regulate Zeb2 expression. Moreover, we have demonstrated for the first time by shRNA gene knockdown (KD) and functional assays that Zeb2os plays an important functional role in astrogliosis. We found Zeb2os KD in primary astrocytes affected a number of downstream genes by RNA-Seq, for example, Gfap, Zeb2, and Stat3 level decreased and reduced astrocyte proliferation.

Moreover, we have demonstrated for the first time by shRNA gene knockdown (KD) and functional assays that Zeb2os plays an important functional role in astrogliosis. We found Zeb2os KD in primary astrocytes affected a number of downstream genes by RNA-Seq, for example, Gfap, Zeb2, and Stat3 level decreased and reduced astrocyte proliferation.
