Novel ADNP syndrome mice reveal dramatic sex-specific peripheral gene expression with brain synaptic and Tau pathologies.

ABSTRACT: Essential for brain formation and function, activity-dependent neuroprotective protein (ADNP) is a major autism gene. Here, a novel Tyr mouse carrying p.Tyr718* mutation (homologous to the most common ADNP syndrome p.Tyr719*) was generated using CRISPR-Cas9. Adnp p.Tyr718* inhibited early mouse development and showed sex-dependent gait deficits. Delayed speech acquisition was translated to sex-specific mouse syntax abnormalities. Mechanistically, dendritic spine densities/morphologies were significantly decreased in Tyr mice. All mentioned impediments were ameliorated by daily treatments with the ADNP fragment, drug candidate, NAP. Early onset tauopathy was male-specific (hippocampus and visual cortex) mimicking the human condition, paralleled by impaired visual evoked potentials and corrected by acute NAP treatment. RNA-sequencing of spleens revealed a comprehensive effect only on females, with 5 transcripts (SMOX, ARRB1, ADCY6, FOXO3, CPXM1), shared as deregulated by different human patient-derived ADNP mutated lymphoblastoid cell lines. With FOXO3 implicated in apoptosis and steroid synthesis, these changes, converging on AKT1, were further translated to sex-specific microbiota signatures. The Tyr mouse is thus a valid model for the ADNP syndrome, with a human-like pathology. NAP’s corrective effects attest to specificity, leading to future drug development with objective biomarkers, including rapidly responsive visual evoked potentials, blood proteomics and microbiota signatures.

Sexual Divergence in Microtubule Function: The Novel Intranasal Microtubule Targeting SKIP Normalizes Axonal Transport and Enhances Memory

Project description:Activity-dependent neuroprotective protein (ADNP), essential for brain formation, is a frequent autism spectrum disorder (ASD)-mutated gene. ADNP associates with microtubule end binding proteins (EBs) through its SxIP motif, to regulate dendritic spine formation and brain plasticity. Here, we reveal SKIP, a novel 4 amino acid peptide representing an EB-binding site, as a replacement therapy in an outbred Adnp-deficient mouse model. We discovered, for the first time, axonal transport deficits in Adnp+/- mice (measured by manganese-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging), with significant male-female differences. Furthermore, the Adnp+/- mice exhibited impaired hippocampal expression of key ASD-linked genes including the serotonin transporter (Slc6a4), the calcium channel (VDCC) and the autophagy regulator, BECN1 (Beclin1), in a sex-dependent manner. RNA-seq evaluations corroborated, in part, immunohistochemical and functional results. Intranasal SKIP treatment normalized social memory in 8-9-month-old Adnp+/--treated mice to placebo-control levels, while protecting axonal transport and ameliorating changes in ASD-like gene expression. SKIP presents a novel lead compound for ASD drug development, a prevalent unmet medical need.

Transcription profiling of mouse ADNP knockout vs wild type

Project description:The putative transcription factor, activity-dependent neuroprotective protein (ADNP) is a zinc finger and homeodomain - like profile containing protein. ADNP knockout mice die at day 9 of gestation. To reveal ADNP-associated pathways, a 22,690- Affymetrix probe array was used on ADNP knockout and control embryos.

PMID: 12888219 [PubMed - indexed for MEDLINE] Experiment Overall Design: To identify downstream target genes of ADNP, we examined global gene expression profiles of whole E9 knockout embryos (KO - ADNP -l-), their wild-type (WT - ADNP +l+ ) and their heterozygous (H - ADNP âl+ ) littermates, using the Affymetrix Murine Genome 430A oligonucleotide microarrays. Gestation day 9 was chosen as it is the period at which embryos lacking ADNP exhibit distinct morphological and developmental changes prior to degeneration and in uterus absorption. Total RNA was extracted from four ADNP knockout embryos, four normal embryos and six heterozygous embryos. A pool of two genotype identical littermates was used on seven different arrays (pooling of two embryos was necessary to obtain enough RNA on each of the gene microarrays).

Nystagmus in the B6(CG)Tyr(c-2J)/J Albino Mouse: A Functional and RNAseq Analysis

Project description:PURPOSE: Infantile nystagmus syndrome (INS) is a gaze-holding disorder characterized by conjugate, uncontrolled eye oscillations that can result in significant visual acuity loss. INS is often associated with albinism, but the mechanism is unclear. Albino mice have nystagmus; however, a pigmented mouse with a tyr mutation making it phenotypically albino, the B6(CG)-Tyr(c-2J)/J (B6 albino), had not been tested. We tested optokinetic nystagmus reflexes (OKN) in B6 albino and control mice. RNA-Seq was performed on extraocular muscles (EOM), tibialis anterior muscle (TA), abducens (CN6), and oculomotor (CN3) neurons to uncover molecular differences that could account for nystagmus.

ADNP suppresses R-loops at its binding sites

Project description:We have identified ADNP as an R-loop regulator using a proximity-dependent labeling system. We find that ADNP is necessary to suppress R-loops at its binding sites, and that deletion of the ADNP homeodomain reduces ADNP binding to chromatin and results in R-loop accumulation.

Transcriptome analysis of Adnp-heterozygous mice in the hippocampus

Project description:ADNP syndrome, involving the ADNP transcription factor in the SWI/SNF chromatin-remodeling complex, is characterized by developmental delay, intellectual disability, and autism spectrum disorders (ASD). In ASD, ADNP is a highly penetrant risk gene, accounting for ~0.17% cases. Although Adnp-haploinsufficient mice display various phenotypic deficits, the underlying synaptic mechanisms are poorly understood. Here we report age-differential synaptic plasticity deficits associated with cognitive inflexibility and CaMKIIα hyperactivity in Adnp-mutant mice. These mice show impaired and inflexible contextual learning and memory additional to social and anxiety-related deficits in adults long after a marked decrease in ADNP protein levels to ~10% of newborn levels in juveniles. In addition, Adnp-mutant adults show abnormally enhanced long-term potentiation in adults but not in juveniles. This accompanies CaMKIIα hyperactivity involving increased baseline autophosphorylation, as revealed by unbiased proteomic analyses. Therefore, ADNP haploinsufficiency in mice leads to cognitive inflexibility involving altered synaptic plasticity and signaling in adults long after a marked decrease in Adnp expression in juveniles.

Expression of constitutively active FOXO3 in murine forebrain leads to a loss of neural progenitors

Project description:We have generated transgenic mice with tetracycline-regulated conditional expression of a constitutively active allele of FoxO3 under the control of the forebrain-specific CaMKIIa promoter. In adult animals, there was a reduction of brain weight by 30% and an almost complete loss of the dorsal dentate gyrus with normal cortical layering. Interestingly, the adult mice showed motor hyperactivity and a selective loss of long-term memory with normal spatial learning. We observed enhanced apoptosis starting from day E10.5. Performing microarray expression analyses and Q-PCR validation with E12.5 forebrain RNA, we observed an over-representation of thalamic markers and an under-representation of cortical markers in transgenic as compared to control animals. Immunohistochemical data show a loss of progenitors in the lateral ventricles. Up-regulation of Pik3ip1 as a target gene of FoxO3 could be responsible for the observed increase in apoptosis. The obtained forebrain expression signature is reminiscent of a Pax6 knockdown phenotype showing that expression of this FoxO3 allele during development affected neural progenitor survival and overall brain development. Conclusion: Neural progenitors are vulnerable to constitutively active FoxO3-induced apoptosis. We sought to determine the transcriptional differences in forebrains from E12.5 mice expressing a constitutively active alleleof FoxO3 under the control of the forebrain-specific CaMKIIa promoter. To this end two time-pregnant dams were sacrificed 12 days after the vaginal plug was detected, and the embryos were prepared. Visual staging of the embryos confirmed their age. Genotyping and luciferase measurements were performed in order to assess presence and acitivity of the transgenes.
