Project description:Aggregation of the microtubule-associated protein, tau, can lead to neurofibrillary tangle formation in neurons and glia, the hallmark of tauopathy. The cellular damages induced by the tau overexpression and aggregation may lead to multiple pathologic features of tauopathy. However, the effect of aging on tauopathy has not been elucidated yet. Here, we conducted lncRNA/mRNA sequencing analysis on P301S mutant Tau transgenic mouse model (PS19) with different ages to track the genetic changes occurred by the aging and progression of tau overexpression.

Project description:In addition to tau and Aβ pathologies, inflammation plays an important role in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Variants in APOE and TREM2 increase AD risk. ApoE4 exacerbates tau-linked neurodegeneration and inflammation in P301S tau mice and removal of microglia blocks tau-dependent neurodegeneration. Microglia adopt a heterogeneous population of transcriptomic states in response to pathology, at least some of which are dependent on TREM2. Previously, we reported that knockout (KO) of TREM2 attenuated neurodegeneration in P301S mice that express mouse Apoe. Because of the possible common pathway of ApoE and TREM2 in AD, we tested whether TREM2 KO (T2KO) would block neurodegeneration in P301S Tau mice expressing ApoE4 (TE4), similar to that observed with microglial depletion. Surprisingly, we observed exacerbated neurodegeneration and tau pathology in TE4-T2KO versus TE4 mice, despite decreased TREM2-dependent microgliosis. Our results suggest that tau pathology-dependent microgliosis, that is, TREM2-independent microgliosis, facilitates tau-mediated neurodegeneration in the presence of ApoE4.

Project description:We report the isolation and sequencing of tau aggregates from [1] HEK293 cells expressing Tau-RD-P301S-CFP/YFP that have been seeded with preformed fibrils from the brain of P301S mice (B6-Tg(Thy1-MAPT*P301S)2541; referred to as Tg2541 mice). Tau aggregates were isolated by differential centrifugation followed by fluorescence automated particle sorting using a BD FACSaraia. We found that these tau aggregates were enriched for particular small non-coding RNAs, including snoRNAs and snRNAs. [2] the following mice: FvBB6F1-Tg(Camk2a-tTa),(tetO-MAPT*wt)21221 (referred to as rTg21221 or WT tau mice in the paper) and FvBB6F1-Tg(Camk2a-tTA)1Mmay, (tet)-tdTomato-Syp/EGFP)1.1Luo/J,(tetO-MAPT*P301L)4510 (referred to as rTg4510 or P301L mice in the paper). Briefly, tau aggregates were isolated by 1% sarkosyl extraction (to enrich for insoluble proteins) followed by immunoprecipitation of tau using the tau-12 antibody (see Methods section of associated paper for further details). We found that these tau aggregates were enriched for particular small non-coding RNAs, including snRNAs and some snoRNAs. [3] Sequencing of HEK293 tau biosensor cells with and without tau aggregates reveals evidence of significant splicing alterations. Specifically we observed an increase in intron retention events in cells that contain tau aggregates relative to cells without tau aggregates.

Project description:Tauopathies are age-associated neurodegenerative diseases whose mechanistic underpinnings remain elusive, partially due to lack of appropriate human models. Here, we engineered new human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)-derived neuronal lines to express 4R Tau and 4R Tau carrying the P301S MAPT mutation when differentiated into neurons. 4R-P301S neurons display progressive Tau inclusions upon seeding with Tau fibrils and recapitulate features of tauopathy phenotypes including shared transcriptomic signatures, autophagic body accumulation, and reduced neuronal activity. A CRISPRi screen of genes associated with Tau pathobiology identified over 500 genetic modifiers of seeding-induced Tau propagation, including retromer VPS29 and genes in the UFMylation cascade. In progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) brains, the UFMylation cascade is altered in neurofibrillary-tangle-bearing neurons. Inhibiting the UFMylation cascade in vitro and in vivo suppressed seeding-induced Tau propagation. This model provides a robust platform to identify novel therapeutic strategies for 4R tauopathy.

Project description:To assess the potential neuroprotective effects of overexpressing skeletal muscle Transcription Factor EB (TFEB) signaling in the context of age-associated neurodegenerative disease pathologies, we derived cTFEB;HSACre transgenic mice in the MAPT P301S tau hyperphosphorylated background and used the Nanostring nCounter® Alzheimer’s Disease panel to gain more precise insights into disease-relevant transcriptional changes in the hippocampus in both male and female mice with both Tau hyperphosphorylation and skeletal muscle TFEB overexpression. We confirmed significantly reduced transcriptional activation of the nCounter AD microglial activation module through signature scoring.

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.
