Coordinated stimulation of axon regenerative and neurodegenerative transcriptional programs by Atf4 following optic nerve injury

ABSTRACT: To understand the contributions of the Integrated Stress Response (ISR) to the axon regenerative and neurodegenerative transcriptional programs activated by axon injury in the CNS, we evaluated by RNA-seq the retinal transcriptomes of conditional knockout mouse lines for components of the ISR three days after optic nerve crush injury. Prior to injury, intravitreal injection of AAV2-mTagBFP2-ires-Cre under the control of the human synapsin-1 promoter facilitated neuron-specific knockout of Eif2ak3, the gene that encodes the ER stress-responsive kinase Perk; Atf4, the gene that encodes the ISR mediator Activating transcription factor-4; or Ddit3, the gene that encodes another transcription factor that can mediate the ISR, C/ebp homologous protein, or CHOP. We compared the expression profiles of these transgenic retinas after injury to retinas from wildtype mice with and without injury to identify transcripts whose regulation by axon injury is dependent on ISR signaling.

Transcriptional control of retinal ganglion cell death after axonal injury

Project description:Purpose: This study aims to the downstream transcriptional networks controlled by JUN and DDIT which are critical for RGC death Methods: RNA was isolated from the retinas of wild-type mice and mice deficient in Jun, Ddit3, and both Jun and Ddit3 three days after mechanical optic nerve crush injury (CONC), and was subjected to RNA-sequecing. Results: This study identified downstream transcriptional changes after injury included both neuronal survival and pro-inflammatory signaling that were attenuated to differing degrees by loss of Ddit3, Jun, and Ddit3/Jun. Conclusion: These data suggest pro-inflammatory signaling in the retina might be secondary to activation of pro-death pathways in RGCs after acute axonal injury. These results determine the downstream transcriptional networks important for apoptotic signaling which may be important for ordering and staging the pro-degenerative signals after mechanical axonal injury.

MicroRNA-19a-PTEN axis is involved in the developmental decline of axon regenerative capacity in retinal ganglion cells

Project description:Irreversible blindness from glaucoma and optic neuropathies is attributed to retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) losing the ability to regenerate axons. While several transcription factors and proteins have demonstrated enhancement of axon regeneration after optic nerve injury, mechanisms contributing to the age-related decline in axon regenerative capacity remains elusive. Here, we show that microRNAs are differentially expressed during RGC development, and identify microRNA-19a (miR-19a) as a heterochronic marker; developmental decline of miR-19a relieves suppression of PTEN, a key regulator of axon regeneration, and serves as a temporal indicator of decreasing axon regenerative capacity. Intravitreal injection of miR-19a promotes axon regeneration after optic nerve crush in adult mice, and increases axon extension in RGCs isolated from aged human donors. This uncovers a previously unrecognized involvement of the miR-19a-PTEN axis in RGC axon regeneration, and demonstrates therapeutic potential of microRNA-mediated restoration of axon regenerative capacity via intravitreal injection in patients with optic neuropathies.

Neuroprotective effect of miR-204 OE in mouse models of Inherited Retinal Disease (IRD)

Project description:Transcriptome profile of retinas from wild-type (c57BL/6) and RHO-P347S mice following AAV-mediated subretinal delivery of pre-miR-204 to study the molecular changes underlying the neuroprotective effect of miR-204 OE in mouse models of Inherited Retinal Disease (IRD) To determine the molecular changes associated with AAV-mediated delivery of miR-204 in the subretinal space of wild-type and IRD mouse models, we performed RNASeq analysis of retinas from c57BL/6 and RHO-P347S mice injected with the AAV2/8.CMV.miR204 and AAV2/8.CMV.miR204MUT vector in a paired manner.

Experimental gene expression of developmentally downregulated Crmp1, Crmp4, and Crmp5 promotes axon regeneration and retinal ganglion cell survival after optic nerve injury [third-party re-analysis]

Project description:Collapsin response mediator proteins (Crmps) play roles in neuronal development and axon growth. However, neuronal-specific roles of Crmp1, Crmp4, and Crmp5 in regeneration of injured central nervous system (CNS) axons in vivo are unclear. Here, we analyzed developmental and subtype-specific expression of Crmp genes in retinal ganglion cells (RGCs), tested whether overexpressing Crmp1, Crmp4, or Crmp5 in RGCs through localized intralocular AAV2 delivery promotes axon regeneration after optic nerve injury in vivo, and characterized developmental co-regulation of gene-concept networks associated with Crmps. We found that all Crmp genes are developmentally downregulated in RGCs during maturation. However, while Crmp1, Crmp2, and Crmp4 were expressed to a varying degree in most RGC subtypes, Crmp3 and Crmp5 were expressed only in a small subset of RGC subtypes. We then found that after optic nerve injury, Crmp1, Crmp4, and Crmp5 promote RGC axon regeneration to varying extents, with Crmp4 promoting the most axon regeneration and also localizing to axons. We also found that Crmp1 and Crmp4, but not Crmp5, promote RGC survival. Finally, we found that Crmp1, Crmp2, Crmp4, and Crmp5's ability to promote axon regeneration is associated with neurodevelopmental mechanisms, which control RGC’s intrinsic axon growth capacity.

Understanding the role of miRNA-143 (miR-143) in ischemia-induced retinopathy via RNA transcriptome profiling

Project description:To investigate molecular network mediated by miR-143, we analyzed the transcriptome profile of retinas isolated from neonatal pups subjected to either normoxia or oxygen-induced retinopathy (OIR) for 14 days (P14) receiving an intravitreal injection of either scrambled miRNAs (control) or miR-143 mimics. Total RNAs were isolated from the retinas and subjected to RNA-Seq. Analysis of RNA-Seq data identified 2064 genes with altered levels between OIR rats and shame rats receiving scrambled RNAs (adjusted p<0.05).

Retinal Ly6Clow Mo/MΦ protect optic nerve against injury

Project description:We investigate the therapeutic effect of mesenchymal stem cell-derived small extracellular vesicles (MSC-sEVs), a potent immune-modulating therapy for tissue regeneration, in repairing optic nerve damage. Intraocular administration of MSC-sEVs promotes both RGC survival and axon regeneration against optic nerve crush injury. Mechanistically, MSC-sEVs recruits a neural restorative population of hematogenous Ly6Clow monocyte/monocyte-derived macrophage (Mo/MΦ). Gain-of-function by intravitreal administration of the donor Ly6Clow Mo/MΦ markedly improves neurological outcomes in vivo. We then performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RNA-seq of 4 different cells at two time points.

A novel capsid-XL32-derived adeno-associated virus serotype prompts retinal tropism and ameliorates choroidal neovascularization

Project description:Gene therapy has been adapted, from the laboratory to the clinic, to treat retinopathies. In contrast to subretinal route, intravitreal delivery of AAV vectors displays the advantage of bypassing surgical injuries, but the viral particles are more prone to be nullified by the host neutralizing factors. To minimize such suppression of therapeutic effect, especially in terms of AAV2 and its derivatives, we introduced three serine-to-glycine mutations, based on the phosphorylation sites identified by mass spectrum analysis, to the XL32 capsid to generate a novel serotype named AAVYC5. Via intravitreal administration, AAVYC5 was transduced more effectively into multiple retinal layers compared with AAV2 and XL32. AAVYC5 also enabled successful delivery of anti-angiogenic molecules to rescue laser-induced choroidal neovascularization and astrogliosis in mice and non-human primates. Furthermore, we detected fewer neutralizing antibodies and binding IgG in human sera against AAVYC5 than those specific for AAV2 and XL32. Our results thus implicate this capsid-optimized AAVYC5 as a promising vector suitable for a wide population, particularly those with undesirable AAV2 seroreactivity.

Effect of acupuncture treatments on retinal transcriptome after optic nerve injury

Project description:Purpose: We used RNA sequencing to investigate the effect of acupuncture treatment on retinal transcritome after optic nerve injury Methods: Retinal mRNA profiles of 5-week-old wild-type (WT), optic nerve crush injury (ONC), ONC injury with acupuncture treatment at acupoint GB20 (ONC-F) and ONC injury with acupuncture treatment at acupoint BL1 (ONC-J) mice were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using Illumina Hiseq platform. The sequence reads that passed quality filters were analyzed with DESeq2 R package to identify differently expressed genes with padj<0.05. qRT–PCR validation was performed using TaqMan and SYBR Green assays Results: RNA-seq revealed that 436 genes including 31 transcription factors (TFs) were changed after injury, which include many well-known neural degeneration related TFs such as Jun, Ddit3, Atf3 and Atf4. Interestingly, acupuncture treatment at acupoint GB20 (Fengchi) or BL1(Jingming) after ONC injury both resulted in change of retinal gene expression, compared with ONC injury without treatment; furthermore, acupuncture treatment also reversed several gene expression status induced by axon injury. Conclusions: Our research first reported that acupuncture treatment after injury can regulated retinal transcriptome and reversed the gene expression level induced after injury, which will provide novel therapeutic targets for treatment of retinopathy diseases.

HITI junction characterization

Project description:Mouse retinas and livers were injected with AAV2/8 vectors encoding for SpCas9 under control of tissue-specific promoters, as well as a donor DNA and gRNA used to perform targeted integration in the two target loci (rhodopsin for the retina and albumin for the liver) via non-homologous end joining. Retinas and livers were harvested one month after injection and DNA was extracted. PCR products comprising the 5' and 3' junctions between the endogenous loci and the inserted donor DNA were amplified and used for library generation. NGS analysis allowed characterization of the kinds and relative frequency of insertions and deletions generated at the junction points in order to better understand the precision of integration achieved by this gene editing approach.
