Project description:Central nervous system B cells have several potential roles in multiple sclerosis (MS): secretors of proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines, presenters of autoantigens to T cells, producers of pathogenic antibodies, and reservoirs for viruses that trigger demyelination. To interrogate these roles, single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-Seq) was performed on paired cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and blood from subjects with relapsing-remitting MS (RRMS; n = 12), other neurologic diseases (ONDs; n = 1), and healthy controls (HCs; n = 3). Single-cell immunoglobulin sequencing (scIg-Seq) was performed on a subset of these subjects and additional RRMS (n = 4), clinically isolated syndrome (n = 2), and OND (n = 2) subjects. Further, paired CSF and blood B cell subsets (RRMS; n = 7) were isolated using fluorescence activated cell sorting for bulk RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq). Independent analyses across technologies demonstrated that nuclear factor kappa B (NF-?B) and cholesterol biosynthesis pathways were activated, and specific cytokine and chemokine receptors were up-regulated in CSF memory B cells. Further, SMAD/TGF-ß1 signaling was down-regulated in CSF plasmablasts/plasma cells. Clonally expanded, somatically hypermutated IgM+ and IgG1+ CSF B cells were associated with inflammation, blood–brain barrier breakdown, and intrathecal Ig synthesis. While we identified memory B cells and plasmablast/plasma cells with highly similar Ig heavy-chain sequences across MS subjects, similarities were also identified with ONDs and HCs. No viral transcripts, including from Epstein–Barr virus, were detected. Our findings support the hypothesis that in MS, CSF B cells are driven to an inflammatory and clonally expanded memory and plasmablast/plasma cell phenotype.

Project description:For the blood contamination studies a CSF pool was made with 1mL CSF free of blood from n=4 patients. The pool was divided into four aliquots. One aliquot was kept as reference CSF without added blood (named “neat” in the raw files), one was spiked with 20 µL blood/mL CSF (2%) (“20S”) and two were spiked with 5 µL blood/mL CSF (0.5%) (named “5S” and “5U”, S=centrifuged, U=not centrifuged). The sample spiked with 2% blood and one of the samples spiked with 0.5% blood were centrifuged at 4C at 400 x g for 10 minutes. In one experiment (BloodContamination_GeLC-MS_comb1-10) the reference CSF (neat), and 0.5% centrifuged (5S) and 2% centrifuged (20S) were protein depleted using the MARS Hu-14 column, separated by SDS-PAGE into ten fractions and in-gel digested. The samples (30 in total) were analysed by LC-MS on an OrbiTrap Velos Pro online coupled to a Dionex Ultimate 3000 nano RSLC system. The data was analysed by the Progenesis LC MS software 2.7 (Nonlinear Dynamics), and the MS/MS spectra were searched against UniProt/SwissProt using the open-source graphical user interface SearchGUI (version 1.7.3), with search engines OMSSA and X!Tandem. PeptideShaker (version 0.14.7) was used to assemble the peptides into proteins. The raw files were named according to sample and fraction, e.g. the first fraction of the reference CSF was called “BK_GeLC_neat_F1”, and the second fraction was called “BK_GeLC_neat_F2”. In the second blood contamination study the reference CSF (neat), and the 0.5% blood spiked samples centrifuged (5S) and not centrifuged (5U) were trypsin digested by in solution protocol and analysed using the same instruments as in the first study. (In the search output file are also the results for 2% blood spiked with and without centrifugation, 20S and 20U, but since the data was not used, the raw files are not distributed). The raw files were named “BK_Insol_FD_X” (X = neat, 5S or 5U). In the third experiment we examined the rostro-caudal gradient (RCG) on CSF in the spinal cord by sampling the 1st, 10th, 16th, 24th, 31st, 38th and 44th mL CSF in volumes of approximately 1 mL of a PSP patient during lumbar puncture. The CSF was centrifuged at 2000 x g for 10 min. We did an iTRAQ discovery study, and to be able to compare all seven RCG points, three related iTRAQ experiments (RCG exp 1, 2 and 3) were done. In each related experiment we included an identical reference which we labeled with the iTRAQ 114 reagent. The reference sample contained equal volumes of the seven RCG points, and was used as the reference in the data analysis. In the experiment we had twelve samples (equal volume) that were digested and labeled with iTRAQ reagents according to the vendor’s manual. The samples were combined into three related experiments as follows: Exp. 1 (common reference, 44th mL, 24th mL and 1st mL), Exp. 2 (common reference, 1st mL, 38th mL and 16th mL), and Exp. 3 (common reference, 10th mL, 44th mL and the 31st mL). The 1st and 44th mL were included twice, since they were expected to be the most different samples. The three combined samples (RCG exp 1, 2 and 3) were fractionated into 21 fractions using mixed mode reversed phase-anion chromatography (MM (RP-AX)). Fractions 1-4 were excluded from LC-MS analysis and the two latest fractions were combined before analysis on an Orbitrap Velos Pro, resulting in 16 fractions per combined sample. The raw files were named according to experiment (RCG 1, 2 or 3) and number of fraction (F4-F19), e.g. the raw file by the name EA_RCG3_F15 is fraction 15 from RCG experiment 3.

Project description:Elevated frequencies of GM-CSF-producing helper T (TH) cells are consistently found in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients and GM-CSF expression is a non-redundant feature of pathogenic TH cells in preclinical models of MS. GM-CSF activates an inflammatory signature in monocytes, and their progeny are the most abundant cellular infiltrate in acute MS lesions. To model deregulated GM-CSF levels, we generated a transgenic mouse line allowing the induction of GM-CSF expression in mature, peripheral TH cells. This antigen-independent GM-CSF release induced severe neurological deficits with almost 100% penetrance, accompanied by the infiltration of inflammatory monocyte-derived myeloid cells into the brain stem and spinal cord. Other organs did not show obvious signs for clinical pathology, despite also being infiltrated by inflammatory myeloid cells. We aim to unravel differences between organs, their responses and also the potential of tissue destruction by infiltrating cells by sequencing inflammatory myeloid cells isolate from the individual organs.

Project description:Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of combining MS-275 with isotretinoin in treating patients who have metastatic or advanced solid tumors or lymphomas. MS-275 may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for their growth. Isotretinoin may help cancer cells develop into normal cells. MS-275 may increase the effectiveness of isotretinoin by making cancer cells more sensitive to the drug. MS-275 and isotretinoin may also stop the growth of solid tumors or lymphomas by stopping blood flow to the cancer. Combining MS-275 with isotretinoin may kill more cancer cells

Project description:Peripheral blood stem and progenitor cells (PBSC) are widely used for autologous and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. PBSC can be mobilized into the peripheral blood using cytokines, cytotoxic chemotherapy or a combination of both. Granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) has become the most commonly administered cytokine for PBSC mobilization because of its high potency and lack of serious toxicity. Recently, a modified form of recombinant human G-CSF has been introduced. This new compound is pegylated G-CSF (Peg-G-CSF) which possesses a substantially longer half-life than the unconjugated drug because of its reduced renal excretion and therefore provides the basis for continuous G-CSF serum-levels after a single injection. The use of Peg-G-CSF in patients who had received a cytotoxic chemotherapy was accompanied by mobilization kinetics different from those observed in patients who had received unconjugated G-CSF. In particular, more rapid leukocyte recovery and occurrence of CD34-positive cells in the peripheral blood was seen. These findings are presumably related to the more even and continuously high serum level of G-CSF maintained by Peg-G-CSF. Using microarray technology and functional assays, we examined whether pegylation of G-CSF and its different pharmacokinetics results in addition to an earlier leucocyte recovery in transcriptional and functional changes in CD34+ cells obtained from patients who had received either G-CSF or Peg-G-CSF following a standard cytotoxic chemotherapy for PBSC mobilisation. CD34+ hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells were isolated immunomagnetically from patients with multiple myeloma during chemotherapy and G-CSF-induced mobilization. Patients received either unconjugated G-CSF (n=9) or polyethylenglykol (PEG)-conjugated G-CSF (n=7). Total RNA was extracted, reversely transcribed, in vitro transcribed and labelled and hybridized to Affymetrix HG Focus Arrays. Following quality control and normalization differentially expressed genes were identified by significance analysis of microarrays (SAM). Comparing both groups 339 genes were significantly differentially expressed (q value <5%; fold change > 1.2). Peg-G-CSF-mobilized CD34+ cells showed an expression pattern of more early progenitor cells as early stem cell markers such as HOX genes were higher expressed and differentiation-associated genes were lower expressed in comparison with G-CSF-mobilized cells. Moreover, Peg-G-CSF-mobilized CD34+ cells had a greater expression level of cell-cycle-promoting genes suggesting a greater cycle activity of these cells. In conclusion, despite the similar active drug component different pharmacokinetics of Peg-G-CSF and G-CSF result in distinct molecular phenotypes reflecting different functional characteristics.

Project description:Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) is a syndrome exhibiting elevated intracranial pressure (ICP), visual disturbances, and severe headache. IIH primarily affects young obese women, though it can occur in individuals of any age, BMI, and sex. IIH is characterized by systemic metabolic dysregulation with a profile of increased androgen hormones. However, the contributions of obesity/hormonal perturbations to cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) dynamics remains unresolved. We employed obese female Zucker rats and adjuvant testosterone to reveal IIH causal drivers. ICP and CSF dynamics were determined with in vivo experimentation and magnetic resonance imaging, testosterone levels assessed with mass spectrometry, and choroid plexus function revealed with transcriptomics. Obese rats had undisturbed CSF testosterone levels and no changes in ICP or CSF dynamics. Chronic adjuvant testosterone treatment of obese rats elevated the CSF secretion rate, although with no effect on the ICP, due to the elevated CSF drainage capacity of these rats. Obesity in itself therefore does not suffice to recapitulate the IIH symptoms, but modulation of CSF dynamics comes about with adjuvant testosterone treatment, mimicking the androgen excess observed in female IIH patients. Obesity-induced androgen dysregulation may thus play a crucial role in the disease mechanism of IIH.
