Project description:Wallerian degeneration (WD) involves the fragmentation of axonal segments disconnected from their cell bodies, segmentation of the myelin sheath, and removal of debris by Schwann cells and immune cells. The removal and downregulation of myelin-associated inhibitors of axonal regeneration and synthesis of growth factors by these two cell types are critical responses to successful nerve repair. Here, we analyzed the transcriptome of the sciatic nerve of mice carrying the Wallerian degeneration slow (WldS) mutant gene, a gene that confers axonal protection in the distal stump after injury, therefore causing significant delays in WD, neuroinflammation, and axonal regeneration. 56 C57BL6 mice and 56 C57BL/6 OlaHsd-Wlds mice were anesthetized with isoflurane and underwent a microcrush lesion of their left sciatic nerve at the mid-thigh level (exept naive mice, t0). At 0, 3, 7 and 14 days post-injury, mice were anesthetized and killed by cervical dislocation. Sciatic nerves were collected and conective tissue removed. A 4-mm long sciatic nerve segment was taken from the nerve distal stump, starting at 1 mm distal from the lesion up to 5 mm distal. Distal nerve stumps were pooled by group and RNA extracted. Samples were hybridized to GeneChip® Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (Affymetrix). Biological replicate was done.

Project description:We screened nine genetically diverse inbred mouse strains for differences in axonal growth of adult dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons on CNS myelin. Naïve DRG neurite outgrowth on myelin was very limited, but preconditioning the neurons by a prior sciatic nerve crush increased axonal growth substantially across all strains, with by far the greatest change in neurons from CAST/Ei mice. Three independent in vivo CNS injury models revealed greater capacity for CNS axonal regeneration in CAST/Ei than C57BL/6 mice. Full-genome expression profiling of naïve and pre-conditioned DRGs across all strains revealed Activin-βA (Inhba) as the transcript whose expression most closely correlated with axonal growth on myelin. In vitro and in vivo gain- and loss-of-function experiments confirmed that Activin promotes axonal growth in the CNS. Substantial regeneration is possible, therefore, in the injured mammalian CNS when Activin signaling is intrinsically high, as in CAST/Ei or when extrinsically modulated in other strains. 9 strains, 4 replicates per strain, 2 conditions (naïve and axotomy) = 72 samples. 2 samples were excluded because technical outliers (AJ_AX5D_1 and AJ_NAIVE_4 excluded from the normalized data but included in the raw data)

Project description:After nerve injury, myelin and Remak Schwann cells reprogram to repair cells specialized for regeneration. Normally providing strong regenerative support, these cells fail in aging animals, and during the chronic denervation that results from slow axon growth. This impairs axonal regeneration and causes a significant clinical problem. We find that aging and chronically denervated repair cells express reduced c-Jun protein and the regenerative support provided by these cells is also reduced. In both cases, genetically restoring Schwann cell c-Jun levels restores regeneration to that in controls. We identify potential gene candidates mediating this effect and implicate Shh in the control of Schwann cell c-Jun levels. These experiments reveal that a common mechanism, reduced c-Jun in repair cells, underlies two major reasons for regeneration failure in the PNS. They underscore the central importance of Schwann cell c-Jun as a regulator of nerve repair, and point to molecular pathways that can be manipulated for improving the clinical outcome of nerve injuries.

Project description:The peripheral nervous system harbours a remarkable potential to regenerate after acute nerve trauma. Full functional recovery, however, is rare and critically depends on peripheral nerve Schwann cells that orchestrate break down and resynthesis of myelin and, at the same time, support axonal regrowth. How Schwann cells meet the high metabolic demand required for nerve repair remains poorly understood. We here report that nerve injury induces adipocyte to glial signaling, and identify the adipokine leptin as an upstream regulator of glial metabolic adaptation in regeneration. Signal integration by leptin receptors in Schwann cells ensures efficient peripheral nerve repair by adjusting injury-specific catabolic processes in regenerating nerves, including myelin autophagy and mitochondrial respiration. Our findings propose a model according to which acute nerve injury triggers a therapeutically targetable intercellular crosstalk that modulates glial metabolism, to provide sufficient energy for successful nerve repair.

Project description:Several traumatic and neurodegenerative disorders of the CNS show axonal degeneration as a key and early pathological feature. Following a focal axonal lesion, an extended axonal disintegration by acute axonal degeneration (AAD) occurs within several hours. During AAD, activation of autophagic proteins, including Unc-51 like autophagy activating kinase 1 (ULK1), has been shown but its role is incompletely understood. Here, we overexpressed a dominant negative of ULK1 (ULK1.DN) in primary rat cortical neurons in vitro and in the spinal cord (SC) and optic nerve (ON) in vivo. We found a significant inhibitory effect on autophagy in vitro and in vivo. While no effect on cell survival could be observed, ULK1.DN attenuated AAD after axotomy in microfluidic chambers in vitro. Models of SC injury and ON crush in vivo confirmed an attenuation of axonal degeneration by ULK1.DN. In a translational approach, we employed the selective ULK1 inhibitor SBI-0206965 (SBI) and found an attenuation of AAD after ON crush in vivo mediated by a reduction of autophagy by SBI. Quantitative proteomic profiling after ULK1.DN overexpression in vitro revealed a regulation of proteins associated with translation and splicing. A differential exon expression analysis then identified the genes kinesin family member 1B (Kif1b), DNA damage inducible transcript 3 (Ddit3) and WD repeat domain 6 (Wdr6) as targets of ULK1.DN and potential mediators of its degeneration-attenuating effect. These findings reveal ULK1 as an important mediator of axonal degeneration and elucidate its function in splicing, defining it as a putative therapeutic target.

Project description:Abstract: Wallerian degeneration (WD) is a process of autonomous distal degeneration of axons upon injury. Macrophages (MP) of the peripheral nervous system (PNS) are main cellular agent controlling this process. Some evidences suggest that resident PNS-MP along with MP of hematogenous origin may be involved but whether these two subsets exert distinct functions is unknown. Combining MP-designed fluorescent reporters mice, and coherent anti-stoke raman scattering (CARS) imaging of the sciatic nerve, we deciphered the spatio-temporal choreography of resident and recently recruited MP after injury and unveiled distinct functions of these subsets with recruited MP responsible of efficient myelin stripping and clearance while resident MP were involved in axonal regrowth. This work provides clues to tackle selectively cellular processes involved in neurodegenerative diseases. Methods: (relevant for this GEO dataset): RNAseq of sciatic nerve macrophages from mice after CCI: Sorted cells were lysed in 100µl of RA1/TCEP buffer (NucleoSpin RNA XS, Macherey-Nagel), snap frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at -80C until RNA extraction. All samples were processed in parallel and RNA extraction (without Carrier RNA but with on-column DNase treatment) was performed according to manufacturer's instructions (NucleoSpin RNA XS, Macherey-Nagel). RNA was eluted in RNAse-free water. Preparation of cDNA libraries for RNAseq was done using the SmartSeq method according to manufacturer's instructions (SMART-Seq v4 Ultra Low Input RNA Kit for Sequencing, Clontech/TaKaRa). Due to the low number of cells, the total amount of eluted RNA was used as starting material for reverse transcription, followed by 18 cycles of pre-amplification. 1ng of cDNA were used for RNAseq sequencing library preparation, according to manufacturer's instructions (Nextera XT DNA Library Preparation, Illumina). Final samples pooled library prep were sequenced on a Nextseq 500 ILLUMINA with MidOutPut cartridge (2x130Millions of 75 bases reads) with 2 runs (4plex and 5plex), corresponding to 2x30Millions of (paired-end) reads per sample after demultiplexing.

Project description:Axon degeneration and neurological dysfunction in myelin diseases is often attributed to loss of myelin. Perturbed myelinating glia can instigate chronic neuroinflammation and contribute to demyelination and axonal damage. We have previously shown in mice that distinct defects in the proteolipid protein 1 gene result in axonal damage which is largely driven by cytotoxic T cells targeting myelinating oligodendrocytes. Here we show in these mutants that persistent ensheathment with perturbed myelin poses a risk for axon degeneration, neuron loss, and behavioral decline. We demonstrate that CD8+ T cell-driven axonal damage is less likely to progress towards degeneration when axons are efficiently demyelinated by activated microglia. Mechanistically, we show that cytotoxic T cell effector molecules induce aberrant cytoskeletal plasticity within myelinating glial processes and constriction of axons at paranodal domains. Our study identifies detrimental axon-glia interactions which promote neurodegeneration and possible therapeutic targets for disorders associated with myelin defects and neuroinflammation.

Project description:The pathophysiology of recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) transection injury is rare in that it is characteristically followed by a high degree of spontaneous reinnervation, with reinnervation of the laryngeal adductor complex (AC) preceding that of the abducting posterior cricoarytenoid (PCA) muscle. Here, we aim to elucidate the differentially expressed myogenic factors following RLN injury that may be at least partially responsible for the spontaneous reinnervation. F344 male rats underwent RLN injury or sham surgery (n=12). One week after RLN injury, larynges were harvested following euthanasia. mRNA was extracted from PCA and AC muscles bilaterally, and microarray analysis was performed using a full rat genome array. Microarray analysis of denervated AC and PCA muscles demonstrated dramatic differences in gene expression profiles, with 205 individual probes that were differentially expressed between the denervated AC and PCA muscles, and only 14 genes with similar expression patterns. The differential expression patterns of the AC and PCA suggest different mechanisms of reinnervation. The PCA showed the gene patterns of Wallerian degeneration, while the AC expressed the gene patterns of reinnervation by adjacent axonal sprouting. This finding may reveal important therapeutic targets applicable to RLN and other peripheral nerve injuries. Compare mRNA expression from injured tissue (recurrent laryngeal nerve transection injury) to normal tissue from two tissues laryngeal adductor complex and posterior cricoarytenoid muscles.
