SIRT6-CBP dependent Nuclear Tau Accumulation and its Role in Protein Synthesis.

ABSTRACT: Several neurodegenerative diseases present Tau accumulation as the main pathological marker. Tau post-translational modifications such as phosphorylation and acetylation are increased in neurodegenerative patients. Here, we show that Tau hyper-acetylation at residue 174 increases its own nuclear presence and is the result of DNA damage signaling or the lack of SIRT6, both causative of neurodegeneration. Tau-K174ac is deacetylated in the nucleus by SIRT6. However, lack of SIRT6 or chronic DNA damage result in nuclear Tau-K174ac accumulation. Once there, it induces global changes in gene expression affecting protein translation, synthesis and energy production. Concomitantly, AD patients showed increased Nucleolin and a decrease in SIRT6 levels. AD patients present increased levels of nuclear Tau, particularly Tau-K174ac. Our results suggest that increased Tau-K174ac in AD patients is the result of DNA damage signaling and SIRT6 depletion. We propose that Tau-K174ac toxicity is due to its increased stability, nuclear accumulation and nucleolar dysfunction.

MAPK-DLK signaling coupled with DNA damage promotes intrinsic neurotoxicity associated with non-mutated tau

Project description:Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most prevalent form of neurodegeneration. Despite the well-established link between tau aggregation and clinical progression, the major pathways driven by this protein to intrinsically damage neurons are incompletely understood. To model AD-relevant neurodegeneration driven by tau, we overexpressed non-mutated human tau in primary mouse neurons and observed substantial axonal degeneration and cell death, a process accompanied by activated caspase 3. Mechanistically, we detected deformation of the nuclear envelope and increased DNA damage response in tau-expressing neurons. Gene profiling analysis further revealed significant alterations in the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway; moreover, inhibitors of dual leucine zipper kinase (DLK) and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) were effective in alleviating wild-type human tau-induced neurodegeneration. In contrast, mutant P301L human tau was less toxic to neurons, despite causing comparable DNA damage. Axonal DLK activation induced by wild-type tau potentiated the impact of DNA damage response, resulting in overt neurotoxicity. In summary, we have established a cellular tauopathy model highly relevant to AD and identified a functional synergy between the MAPK-DLK axis and DNA damage response in the neuronal degenerative process.

Transcriptomic analysis of PBMC, CD4 memory and CD8 memory T cells in Alzheimer's disease patients and age-matched controls

Project description:Alzheimer’s disease (AD), a chronic multifactorial and complex neurodegenerative disorder is a leading cause of dementia. Recently, neuroinflammation has been hypothesized as a contributing factor to AD pathogenesis. The role of adaptive immune responses against neuronal antigens, which can either confer protection or induce damage in AD, has not been fully characterized. Here, we measured T cell responses to several potential antigens of neural origin including amyloid precursor protein (APP), amyloid beta (Ab), tau, a-synuclein, and transactive response DNA binding protein (TDP-43) in patients with AD and age-matched healthy controls (HC). Antigen-specific T cell reactivity was detected for all tested antigens, and response to tau-derived epitopes was particularly strong, but no significant differences between individuals with AD and age-matched HC were identified. Additionally, further characterization did not reveal any differences in the expression of genes between AD patients and HC. These observations have not identified a key role of neuronal antigen-specific T cell responses in AD.

Microglia-mediated T cell Infiltration Drives Neurodegeneration in Tauopathy

Project description:Extracellular amyloid-β (Aβ) deposition as neuritic plaques and intracellular accumulation of hyperphosphorylated, aggregated tau as neurofibrillary tangles (NFT) are two of the characteristic hallmarks in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The regional progression of brain atrophy in AD highly correlates with tau accumulation but not amyloid deposition and the mechanisms of tau-mediated neurodegeneration remain elusive. Innate immune responses represent a common pathway for the initiation and progression of some neurodegenerative diseases. To date, little is known about the extent or role of the adaptive immune response in the presence of Aβ or tau pathology. We systematically compared the immunological milieus in the brain of mice with amyloid deposition or tau aggregation and neurodegeneration. We found that mice with tauopathy but not amyloid, developed a unique innate and adaptive immune response and that depletion of microglia or T-cells blocked tau-mediated neurodegeneration. T cells, especially cytotoxic T cells, were markedly increased in areas with tau pathology in mice with tauopathy and in the AD brain. T cell numbers correlated with the extent of neuronal loss, and dynamically transformed their cellular characteristics from activated to exhausted states along with unique TCR clonal expansion. Inhibition of IFN-γ and PD-1signaling both significantly ameliorated brain atrophy. Our results thus reveal a tauopathy and neurodegeneration-related immune hub involving activated microglia and T cell responses, which could serve as therapeutic targets for preventing neurodegeneration in AD and primary tauopathies.

Targeted quantification of detergent-insoluble RNA-binding proteins in Alzheimer’s disease reveals disease-specific coaggregation signatures

Project description:Core spliceosome and related RNA-binding proteins aggregate in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) brain even in early asymptomatic stages (AsymAD) of disease. To assess the specificity of RNA-binding protein aggregation in AD, we developed a targeted mass spectrometry approach to quantify broad classes of RNA-binding proteins with other pathological proteins including Tau and amyloid beta (Aβ) in detergent insoluble fractions from AD brain and that of other dementias. In total, we quantified 870 peptides from 385 detergent-insoluble RNA-binding proteins across 44 cortical tissues including controls, AsymAD, AD, and Parkinson’s Disease (PD). Relative levels of specific insoluble RNA-binding proteins across different disease groups correlated with accumulation of Aβ and Tau aggregates. RNA-binding proteins, including splicing factors with homology to the basic-acidic dipeptide repeats of U1-70K, preferentially aggregated in AsymAD and AD. In contrast, PD brain aggregates were relatively depleted of many RNA-binding proteins compared to AsymAD and AD groups. Correlation network analyses resolved 29 distinct modules of co-aggregating proteins including modules linked to spliceosome assembly, nuclear speckles and RNA splicing. Modules related to spliceosome assembly and nuclear speckles progressively increased in insolubility across progressive AD stages, whereas the RNA splicing module was decreased specifically in PD. Collectively, this work identifies classes of RNA-binding proteins that distinctly co-aggregate in detergent-insoluble fractions across neurodegenerative diseases.

Progranulin–glucocerebrosidase complex regulates tau and alpha-synuclein inclusions to alter phenotypes in tauopathy

Project description:Many neurodegenerative disorders including Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) are characterized by abnormal protein deposition and frequently show comorbid pathology. Progranulin (PGRN) is implicated not only in TDP-43 but in tau and alpha-synuclein proteinopathies. However, the underlying mechanisms are unknown. Here, we generated P301S tau transgenic mice with PGRN haploinsufficiency and loss and found that those mice exhibit exacerbated disinhibition phenotype while showing attenuated memory impairment, hippocampal atrophy, and transcriptomic changes. Remarkably, the phenotypic alteration was accompanied by an increase in tau inclusions, which are positive for alpha-synuclein, a PGRN binding partner beta-glucocerebrosidase (GCase), and its substrate glucosylceramide. GCase inhibition or PGRN deficiency enhanced tau aggregation induced by AD-derived tau seeds in neurons. In vitro, GCase and glucosylceramide promoted P301S tau aggregation. Similar co-pathology was observed in AD and FTLD-GRN patients.

Are Mouse Models a surrogate for human disease? A temporal, quantitative and molecular perspective.

Project description:It is unclear to what extent Tau molecular pathology in murine models reflect human Tauopathies. Nevertheless, mouse models that overexpress human mutant Tau (P301S and P301L) are widely used in studies of Tauopathies and Alzheimer’s Disease (AD). In this study, we perform an in-depth temporally and spatially resolved mass spectrometry-based proteomic analysis of P301S (hTau.P301S) and P301L (rTg(tauP301L)4510) mice as well as human patients with AD or frontotemporal dementia due to the P301L mutation, to identify differences and similarities between human AD, animal models and human P301L patients. Both mouse models and human P301L patients show progressive Tau accumulation driven by Tau phosphorylation during disease progression as also observed in early human AD. However, Tau ubiquitination and acetylation, important in human AD, are less or not represented in the mouse models or in P301L patients. Our analyses provide guidance regarding designing mechanistic studies and testing of Tau directed therapeutics.

Whole genome transcriptional analysis of Alzheimer's disease patients compared with age-matched non-demented controls

Project description:Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is an aging related neurodegenerative pathology that affects millions of people worldwide. This pathology has been related to a range of features such as deposition of proteins in the brain, alterations in cell cycle, accumulation of DNA damage, DNA repair deficiency and mitochondrial dysfunction, however the molecular mechanisms implicated in its pathogenesis are still uncertain. Thereby, the present study aimed to evaluate whether peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of AD patients display alterations in gene expression profilescompared to age-matched controls. Blood samples were collected from 25 AD patients and 15 age-matched controls in order to perform genome-wide mRNA expression (microarray). In blood cells, Rank products bioinformatics analysis indicated 593 mRNAs adifferentially expressed in AD compared to controls. Our results demonstrated that PBMCs have alterations in cell cycle and DNA repair as proposed for AD neurons, reinforcing the idea that AD blood cells can provide information about AD status and also can be import as source of studies to better understand the disease.

Increased G3BP2-Tau interaction in Tauopathies is a natural defense against Tau aggregation

Project description:Many RNA-binding proteins (RBPs), particularly those associated with RNA granules, promote pathological protein aggregation in neurodegenerative diseases. Here, we demonstrate that G3BP2, a core component of stress granules, directly interacts with Tau and inhibits Tau aggregation. In the human brain, the interaction of G3BP2 and Tau is dramatically increased in multiple Tauopathies and precedes neurofibrillary tangle (NFT) formation in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Surprisingly, Tau pathology is significantly elevated upon loss of G3BP2 in human neurons and brain organoids. Moreover, we find that G3BP2 masks the microtubule-binding region (MTBR) of Tau, thereby inhibiting Tau aggregation. Our study defines a novel role for RBPs as a line of defense against Tau aggregation in Tauopathies.
