Tissue-type plasminogen activator expression is required for proper CNS myelination

ABSTRACT: Oligodendrocytes form myelin sheaths, a process regulated by intrinsic and extrinsic signals. Endothelial derived-tissue-type plasminogen activator (tPA) has been previously recognized for its role in aiding oligodendrocyte migration during (re)myelination. Moreover, it is well established that oligodendrocytes express de novo tPA following myelin damage, possibly reflecting the initiation of a regenerative program. However, its role in differentiation and myelination has remained unclear. This study aims to uncover the role of endothelial- and oligodendrocytes-derived tPA in developmental myelination. It appears that tPA is transiently expressed in myelinating oligodendrocytes in mice and humans. tPA deficiency delays oligodendrocyte maturation and causes persistent myelin defects, leading to motor impairments. Endothelial-derived tPA promotes myelin compaction, while oligodendrocyte-derived tPA supports myelin growth. These findings, along with previous research, highlight shared molecular mechanisms between developmental myelination and remyelination. Moreover, we highlight tPA’s dual roles in myelination and as a therapeutic target for dysmyelinating diseases.

Small-molecule-induced epigenetic rejuvenation overcomes myelinogenic barriers and stimulates myelin repair [RNA-seq]

Project description:Failure of oligodendrocytes to remyelinate underlies diseases such as multiple sclerosis (MS). We found that epigenetic silencing prevents oligodendrocytes from producing myelin sheaths in demyelinating MS lesions. Here, we developed a transgenic reporter system to identify a small-molecule epigenetic modulator that stimulates oligodendrocyte maturation and myelin ensheathment in vitro. This compound promoted remyelination in animal models of MS and myelination of regenerated axons and increased myelin sheath lengths in human iPSC-derived organoids. Multi-omics analyses revealed that the compound induced an enhancer/super-enhancer landscape that upregulates crucial myelinogenesis-associated pathways, including RRAS2-AKT signaling, driving actin depolymerization necessary for myelin ensheathment. Strikingly, the compound also induced phase-separated nuclear condensates of SREBP1/2, which concentrate transcriptional co-activators to drive lipid and cholesterol biosynthesis. Silencing expression of a potential target of the small molecule, HDAC3, facilitated robust myelination and remyelination. Our findings suggest that small-molecule-modulated epigenome rejuvenation relieves epigenetic silencing barriers and promotes myelin repair.

Reactive oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (re-)myelinate the regenerating zebrafish spinal cord [transcriptome]

Project description:Spinal cord injury (SCI) results in loss of neurons, oligodendrocytes and myelin sheaths, all of which are not efficiently restored. The scarcity of oligodendrocytes in the lesion site impairs remyelination of spared fibres, which leaves axons denuded, impedes signal transduction and contributes to permanent functional deficits. In contrast to mammals, zebrafish can functionally regenerate the spinal cord. Yet, little is known about oligodendroglial lineage biology and remyelination capacity after SCI in a regeneration-permissive context. Here, we report that in adult zebrafish, SCI results in axonal, oligodendrocyte and myelin sheath loss. We find that OPCs, the oligodendorocyte progenitor cells, survive the injury, enter a reactive state, proliferate and differentiate into oligodendrocytes. Concomitantly, the oligodendrocyte population is re-established to pre-injury levels within two weeks.Transcriptional profiling revealed that reactive OPCs upregulate the expression of several myelination-related genes. Interestingly, global reduction of axonal tracts and partial re-myelination, relative to pre-injury levels, persist at later stages of regeneration, yet suffices for functional recovery. Taken together, these findings imply that in the zebrafish spinal cord, OPCs replace lost oligodendrocytes and, thus, re-establish myelination during regeneration.

Genome-wide mapping of Olig2 targets in primary oligodendrocytes

Project description:Myelination by oligodendrocytes in the central nervous system (CNS) is essential for proper brain function, yet the molecular determinants that control this process remain poorly understood. The basic helix-loop-helix transcription factors Olig1 and Olig2 promote myelination, whereas bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) and Wnt/?-catenin signaling inhibit myelination. Here we show that these opposing regulators of myelination are functionally linked by the Olig1/2 common target Smad-interacting protein-1 (Sip1). We demonstrate that Sip1 is an essential modulator of CNS myelination. Sip1 represses differentiation inhibitory signals by antagonizing BMP receptor-activated Smad activity while activating crucial oligodendrocyte-promoting factors. Importantly, a key Sip1-activated target, Smad7, is required for oligodendrocyte differentiation and partially rescues differentiation defects caused by Sip1 loss. Smad7 promotes myelination by blocking the BMP- and ?-catenin-negative regulatory pathways. Thus, our findings reveal that Sip1-mediated antagonism of inhibitory signaling is critical for promoting CNS myelination and point to new mediators for myelin repair. ChIP-seq was performed to identify Olig2 direct target genes in oligodendrocytes during oligodendrocyte differentiation.

GDE2-dependent activation of canonical Wnt signaling in neurons regulates

Project description:Neurons and oligodendrocytes communicate to regulate oligodendrocyte development and ensure appropriate axonal myelination. Here, we show that Glycerophosphodiester phosphodiesterase 2 (GDE2) encodes a neuronal pathway that promotes oligodendrocyte maturation through the release of soluble neuronally-derived factors. Mice lacking global or neuronal GDE2 expression have reduced mature oligodendrocytes and myelin proteins but retain normal numbers of oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs). WT OPCs cultured in conditioned medium (CM) from Gde2 null (Gde2KO) neurons exhibit delayed maturation, recapitulating in vivo phenotypes. Gde2KO neurons show robust reduction in canonical Wnt signaling and genetic activation of Wnt signaling in Gde2KO neurons rescues in vivo and in vitro oligodendrocyte maturation. Phosphacan, a known stimulant of OL maturation, is reduced in CM from Gde2KOneurons but is restored when Wnt signaling is activated. These studies identify GDE2 control of Wnt signaling as a neuronal pathway that signals to oligodendroglia to promote oligodendrocyte maturation.

RNA-sequencing of Zdhhc5 knockout oligodendrocytes

Project description:Myelin sheath is an important structure to maintain normal functions of the nerves in central nervous system. Protein palmitoylation has been established as a sorting determinant for the transport of myelin-forming proteins to the myelin membrane. However, its function in the regulation of oligodendrocyte development remains unknown. Here, we show that an Asp-His-His-Cys (DHHC) motif-containing palmitoyl acyltransferases, DHHC5, is involved in the control of oligodendrocyte development. Loss of Zdhhc5 in oligodendrocytes inhibits myelination and remyelination by a reduction on total myelinating oligodendrocyte population. STAT3 is the primary substrate for DHHC5 palmitoylation in oligodendrocytes. Zdhhc5 ablation reduces STAT3 palmitoylation, and then suppresses STAT3 phosphorylation and activation. As a result of the decreased STAT3 transactivity, the transcription of the myelin-related and anti-apoptosis genes is therefore inhibited, leading to suppressed oligodendrocyte development and myelination. Our findings demonstrate the key role DHHC5 in the control of myelinogenesis.

Transcription profiling of differentiation of Rattus norvegicus oligodendrocytes from their progenitor cells

Project description:Oligodendrocytes undergo extensive changes as they differentiate from progenitors into myelinating cells. To better understand the; molecular mechanisms underlying this transformation, we performed a comparative analysis using gene expression profiling of A2B5+; oligodendrocyte progenitors and O4+ oligodendrocytes. Cells were sort-purified ex vivo from postnatal rat brain using flow cytometry. Using Affymetrix microarrays, 1707 transcripts were identified with a more than twofold increase in expression inO4+oligodendrocytes. Many genes required for oligodendrocyte differentiation were upregulated in O4+ oligodendrocytes, including numerous genes encoding; myelin proteins. Transcriptional changes included genes required for cell adhesion, actin cytoskeleton regulation, and fatty acid and; cholesterol biosynthesis. At the O4+ stage, there was an increase in expression of a novel proline-rich transmembrane protein (Prmp). Localized to the plasma membrane, Prmp displays adhesive properties that may be important for linking the extracellular matrix to the; actin cytoskeleton. Together, our results highlight the usefulness of this discovery-driven experimental strategy to identify genes relevant; to oligodendrocyte differentiation and myelination. Experiment Overall Design: Whole brain dissociates were prepared from one litter of 10 male postnatal day 7 rat pups for each of the 5 A2B5 bioligcal replicates and the 4 O4+ bioligical replicates. Total RNA was extracted from single A2B5+ and single O4+ cells sorted directly from postnatal day7 rat whole brain dissociates using flow cytometry.
