Comparative transcriptional profiling of motor neuron disorder-associated genes in various human cell culture models

ABSTRACT: Disease modelling requires appropriate cellular models that best mimic the underlying pathophysiology. Human origin and an adequate expression of the disease protein are pre-requisites that support information from a model to be meaningful. In this study we investigated expression profiles of (i) PBMCs and (ii) fibroblasts as patient derived cells as well as (iii) lymphoblasts and (iv) induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) as immortalized sources and (v) iPSC-derived cortical neurons to assess its aptitude to model motor neuron diseases (MNDs) including hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). We generated all five cell lines from two healthy donors and performed RNA sequencing to display expression patterns in MND-related genes. For the ten most common HSP genotypes we proved gene expression by qPCR. Depending on the specific MND gene we found largely different expression patterns. Out of 168 MND-related genes, 50 had their highest expression in iPSC-derived cortical neurons, 41 were most strongly expressed in fibroblasts, 26 in lymphoblasts, 22 in iPSCs and 14 in PBMCs. 15 MND-related genes were not detectable in any of the analyzed cell types. This study provides comprehensive information on expression of genes associated with a large spectrum of MNDs. Expression profiles can be used to inform on appropriate cell models for genotype specific motor neuron research.

Affymetrix 6.0 study of sporadic motor neuron disease patients and controls.

Project description:This data was divided into three experiment sets: 1. A somatic study of sporadic motor neuron disease (SMND) brain samples that were compared to the blood from the same individual, normal control brains and disease control brans (Parkinson Disease patients); 2. A twin study comparing blood and other tissue samples from twins that were discordant for MND, concordant for MND and control twins and 3. A trio study of blood samples MND patients compared to their unaffected parents. Study 1: 36 sporadic motor neuron disease brain (lateral frontal cortex, Brodmann area 46), 34 matched sporadic motor neuron disease blood, 26 control brain (lateral frontal cortex, Brodmann area 46), 9 Parkinson Disease brain (disease controls, lateral frontal cortex, Brodmann area 46). Study 2 and study 3: 52 twin or trio blood, 4 twin hair, 1 twin sperm. 2 replicate twin blood and 1 replicate trio blood repeated at a different time. External control blood from Coriell GM15510 and GM10851.

PolyGR and polyPR knock-in mice reveal a conserved neuroprotective extracellular matrix signature in C9orf72 ALS/FTD neurons

Project description:A GGGGCC repeat expansion in C9orf72 is the most common genetic cause of ALS and FTD (C9ALS/FTD). Dipeptide repeat (DPR) proteins, generated by translation of the expanded repeat, are a major pathogenic feature of C9ALS/FTD pathology, but their physiological impact has yet to be fully determined. Here, we generated C9orf72 DPR knock-in mouse models characterised by expression of 400 codon-optimised polyGR or polyPR repeats, and heterozygous C9orf72 reduction. (GR)400 and (PR)400 knock-in mice recapitulate key features of C9ALS/FTD, including cortical neuronal hyperexcitability, age-dependent spinal motor neuron loss and progressive motor dysfunction. Quantitative proteomics revealed an increase in extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins in (GR)400 and (PR)400 spinal cord, with the collagen COL6A1 the most increased protein. This increase in ECM protein levels looked to be a conserved feature of C9ALS/FTD, with a similar signature also present in C9ALS patient iPSC-motor neurons. TGF-β1 was one of the top predicted regulators of this ECM signature and polyGR expression in human iPSC-neurons was sufficient to induce TGF-β1 followed by COL6A1. Knockdown of TGF-β1 or COL6A1 orthologues in polyGR model Drosophila exacerbated neurodegeneration, while expression of TGF-β1 or COL6A1 in C9ALS/FTD patient iPSC motor neurons protected against glutamate-induced cell death. Altogether, our C9orf72 DPR knock-in mice have revealed a neuroprotective and conserved ECM signature in C9ALS/FTD.

Microarray analysis identifies the gene signature of surviving motor neurons in human SOD1-related motor neuron disease

Project description:Gene expression profiling has been performed previously on motor cortex and spinal cord homogenates and of sporadic ALS cases and controls, to identify genes and pathways differentially expressed in ALS. More recent studies have combined the use of laser capture microdissection (LCM) with gene expression profiling to isolate the motor neurons from the surrounding cells, such as microglia and astrocytes, in order to determine those genes differentially expressed in the vulnerable cell population – i.e. motor neuron. The aim of the present study is to combine LCM and microarray analysis to determine those genes and pathways differentially expressed in MNs from human SOD1-related MND and to establish potential pathways for therapeutic intervention. Keywords: Human motor neurons The aim of this study was to determine the gene expression profiles from a small subset of cases which all carry mutations in the SOD1 gene. Expression profiles from isolated motor neurons in SOD1-related ALS cases were compared to those from control motor neurons, in order to establish the pathways implicated in SOD1-related motor neuronal cell death. The 'control' samples were originally submitted to GEO as GSE19332.

Exon array analysis of control vs. FALS MPC

Project description:To assess RNA regulation in FALS for gene expression and alternative processing of RNA in the motor neuron precurssors (MPCs) Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a late-onset motor neuron disorder. Although its neuropathology is well understood, the cellular and molecular mechanisms that lead to the initiation and progression of this disease are yet to be elucidated due to limitations in the currently available human genetic data. In this study, we generated induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) from two familial ALS (FALS) patients with a missense mutation in the fused-in sarcoma (FUS) gene carrying the heterozygous FUS H517D mutation, and the isogenic iPSCs with the homozygous FUS H517D mutation obtained by genome editing from the healthy control iPSCs. These cell-derived motor neurons mimicked several neurodegenerative phenotypes. A part of the mutant FUS protein was localized outside the nucleus and co-localized with stress granules under stress conditions. Moreover, FALS motor neurons showed more apoptotic activity than did control motor neurons. Exon array analysis using motor neuron precursor cells (MPCs) combined with CLIP-seq data sets revealed aberrant gene expression and/or splicing pattern in FALS-MPCs. These results suggest that iPSC-derived motor neurons are a useful tool for analyzing the pathogenesis of human motor neuron disorders.

Co-culture of iPSC-derived microglia and spinal motor neurons as a novel model for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

Project description:Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is a fatal neurodegenerative disorder primarily characterized by motor neuron degeneration with additional involvement of non-neuronal cells, in particular, microglia. In our previous work, we have established protocols for the differentiation of iPSC-derived spinal motor neurons and microglia. Here, we combine both cell lineages and establish a novel co-culture of iPSC-derived motor neurons and microglia, which is compatible with motor neuron identity and function. Co-cultured microglia express key microglial markers and transcriptomically resemble primary human microglia, have highly dynamic ramifications, are phagocytic, release various cytokines and respond to stimulation. Further, they express key amyotrophic lateral sclerosis-associated genes and release disease-relevant biomarkers. This novel and authentic human model system facilitates the study of physiological motor neuron-microglia crosstalk and permits the investigation of non-cell-autonomous phenotypes in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
