Microglia RNA-seq of mus musculus:adult male dorsal hippocampus

ABSTRACT: Engrams are considered to be substrates for memory storage, and the functional dysregulation of the engrams leads to cognition impairment.However, the cellular basis for these maladaptive changes lead to the forgetting of memories remains unclear. Here we found that the expression of autophagy protein 7 (Atg7) mRNA was dramatically upregulated in aged DG engrams, and led to the forgetting of contextual fear memory and the activation of surrounding microglia.To determine mechanism by which autophagy in DG engrams activates the surrounding microglia, mice were co-injected AAV-RAM-Cre either with AAV-Dio-Atg7-Flag or AAV-Dio- EYFP in dorsal dentate gyrus to overexpress ATG7 in the DG memory engrams. Microglia were separated using magnetic-activated cell sorting and subjected to RNA-Seq in dorsal hippocampus .Bioinformatics analysis shown overexpression of Atg7 in dorsal DG memory engrams caused an increase in the expression of Tlr2 in the surrounding microglia.Depletion of Toll-like receptor 2/4 (TLR2/4) in DG microglia prohibited excessive microglial activation and synapse elimination induced by the overexpression of ATG7 in DG engrams, and thus prevented forgetting. Furthermore, the expression of Rac1, a Rho-GTPases which regulates active forgetting in both fly and mice, was upregulated in aged engrams. Optogentic activation of Rac1 in DG engrams promoted the autophagy of the engrams, the activation of microglia, and the forgetting of fear memory. Invention of the Atg7 expression and microglia activation attenuated forgetting induced by activation of Rac1 in DG engrams. Together, our findings revealed autophagy-dependent synapse elimination of DG engrams by microglia as a novel forgetting mechanism.

Expression data in antigen-specific CD8 T cells in the absence of ATG7

Project description:Autophagy genes play an important role in the T cell activation and proliferation. We examined the role of ATG7 during the process of CD8 T cell memory formation. In the absence of ATG7, antigen-specific CD8 T cells failed to survive past the contraction phase and failed to give rise to memory cells. We used microarrays to examine the global programme of gene expression underlying changes introduced in the absence of the ATG7 gene and identified distinct classes genes varied their expression during this time-point. Mouse LCMV-specific CD8 T cells were isolated at day 8 post LCMV infection for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. We sought to compare the gene expression profiles in wild-type cells and cells lacking the ATG7 gene during the peak of their expansion.

Microglial Rac1 is essential for experience-dependent brain plasticity and cognitive performance

Project description:Here, we used conditional cell-specific gene targeting in mice with multi-omics approaches, and demonstrated that the RhoGTPase Rac1 was an essential requirement for the microglia to sense and interpret the brain microenvironment, and for crucial microglia-synapse crosstalk driving experience-dependent plasticity. Phosphoproteomics profiling detected a large modulation of RhoGTPase signaling, predominantly of Rac1, in microglia of mice exposed to an environmental enrichment protocol. Ablation of microglial Rac1 affected pathways involved in microglia-synapse communication, disrupted experience-dependent synaptic remodeling, and blocked the gains in learning, memory and sociability induced by environmental enrichment.

Gene expression profiles in livers caused by Atg7 and/or Nrf2 deficiency

Project description:Autophagy deficiency caused by conditional knockout of Atg7 results in severe hepatitis accompanied by abundant accumulation of p62. p62 stablizes Nrf2 by disrupting the association between Keap1 and Nrf2. To understand the pathogenesis of hepatitis under the autophagy deficiency, we examined gene expression profiles of livers from Atg7-null, Nrf2-null and Atg7-Nrf2 double mutant mice. Eight week old Atg7F/F:Mx1-Cre mice and Atg7F/F:Mx1-Cre:Nrf2-/- together with control mice were injected with pIpC. At 4 weeks after pIpC injection, total RNAs were purified from each mouse liver.

Differential roles of RUBCN isoforms in autophagy and memory B-cell generation

Project description:RUBCN/Rubicon was originally identified as a negative regulator of canonical autophagy. However, its function remains controversial. Here we show that RUBCN is expressed as two isoforms of different sizes, RUBCN130 and RUBCN100, that are translated from alternative translation initiation sites. Selective RUBCN130 deficiency in B cells enhances autophagy and memory B-cell generation. Autophagy suppression by ATG7 deficiency reverses the enhancement of memory B-cell generation in B-cell–specific RUBCN130-deficient mice. While RUBCN130 is intracellularly localized in late endosomes and lysosomes, RUBCN100 is preferentially located in early endosomes and enhances the enzymatic activity of class III PI(3)K VPS34. Additionally, RUBCN100 plays a positive regulatory role in autophagy since its expression promotes autophagy and suppresses mTORC1 activation. Our findings reveal the critical role of functional interaction between RUBCN isoforms in autophagy regulation and also provide clues for developing a new vaccine strategy to induce efficient B-cell memory.

Characterization of microglia polarization states under targeted AAV transduction using bulk and single cell RNA sequencing

Project description:The study of microglia biology and the development of microglia-based gene therapies are in urgent need of efficient and safe vehicles for microglia transgene delivery. To address this, we developed adeno-associated virus (AAV) variants that mediate efficient in vitro and in vivo microglia transduction via directed evolution of the AAV capsid protein. To assess the effect of AAV transduction on microglia, we carried out bulk RNAseq in primary microglia and found that microglia transduced by AAV remain close to homeostatic state. Furthermore, single-cell RNA sequencing showed that the AAV-MG variants mediate safe in vivo transgene delivery without inducing microglia immune activation. These AAV variants should facilitate the applications of various genetically-encoded sensors and effectors in studying microglia-related biology and therapeutic interventions.

Autophagy restricts senescence and enables microglia to engage amyloid plagues in neuroprotection

Project description:Microglia are essential to maintain brain homeostasis, but when dysregulated, exert pathogenic functions in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Recent evidence has implicated senescent/dystrophic microglia in the pathological process of AD. Whether microglial senescence is a cause or consequence of AD pathogenesis however is unclear. Here we report that autophagy, a lysosomal degradation pathway, restricts cellular senescence of microglia and confer neuroprotection in AD mouse model. Autophagy-deficient microglia show hallmarks of cellular senescence evidenced by reduced proliferation, increased Cdkn1a/p21Cip, dystrophy, and typical secretory phenotype. While disease-associated microglia (DAM) surrounding amyloid plaques exhibit heightened autophagy, autophagy deficient, senescent microglia (SAM) disengage from and thus fail to limit the diffusive amyloid plaques, causing enhanced tau phosphorylation and neurotoxicity in AD model. Treatment of senolytic drugs removes senescent microglia and alleviates neuropathology. Our study demonstrates a causal role of autophagy impairment in microglial senescence and neurotoxicity and suggests therapeutic potential of senolytic treatment for AD.

Atg7 deficiency induces a microbiome-influenced immune response and suppresses tumor growth to inhibit intestinal tumorigenesis

Project description:Here, we show that autophagy is activated in the intestinal epithelium in murine and human colorectal cancer and that the conditional inactivation of Atg7 in intestinal epithelial cells inhibits the formation of pre-cancerous lesions in Apc+/- mice by enhancing anti-tumor responses. The antibody-mediated depletion of CD8+ T cells showed that these cells are essential for the antitumoral responses mediated by the inhibition of autophagy. We show that Atg7 deficiency leads to intestinal dysbiosis and that the microbiota is required for anti-cancer responses. In addition, Atg7 deficiency resulted in a stress response accompanied by metabolic defects, AMPK activation and p53-mediated cell cycle arrest in tumor cells but not in normal tissue. This study reveals that the inhibition of autophagy within the epithelium may prevent the development and progression of colorectal cancer in genetically-predisposed patients.
