Sensory neuron dysfunction in dorsal root ganglia during disease onset in the SOD1G93A mouse model for ALS

ABSTRACT: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is primarily characterized by motor neuron degeneration, but accumulating evidence suggests that sensory neurons are also affected. To investigate early sensory neuron dysfunction in ALS, we performed bulk RNA sequencing of dorsal root ganglia (DRG) isolated from SOD1-G93A transgenic mice and wild-type controls at disease onset. This dataset provides transcriptomic profiles that reveal molecular alterations associated with ALS-related sensory neuron pathology.

Transcription profiling of mouse laser capture microdissected SOD1 G93A motor neurons reveals cellular pathways involved in the adaptation and progression of motor neuron injury in the mouse model of familial ALS

Project description:Microarray analysis has been applied to the study of ALS in order to investigate gene expression in whole spinal cord homogenates of SOD1 G93A mice and human ALS cases, although the massive presence of glial cells and inflammatory factors has made it difficult to define which gene expression changes were motor neuron specific. Recently, laser capture microdissection (LCM), combined with microarray analysis, has allowed the identification of motor neuron specific changes in gene expression in human ALS cases. The aim of the present study is to combine LCM and microarray analysis to study how motor neurons in the spinal cord of transgenic SOD1 G93A mice and transgenic SOD1 WT respond to stimuli determined by the presence of the human mutant protein throughout the evolution of the stages in motor neuron injury Experiment Overall Design: Motor neurons have been isolated from the spinal cord of G93A mice and non transgenic littermates at different time points and the transcription expression profile of the isolated motor neurons has been analysed

Perturbations of the proteome in primary astrocytes from the hSOD1(G93A) ALS mouse model

Project description:Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease whose pathophysiology is largely unknown. Despite motor neuron death is recognized as the key event in ALS, astrocytes dysfunctionalities and neuroinflammation were demonstrated to accompany and probably even drive motor neuron loss. Nevertheless, the mechanisms priming astrocyte failure and hyperactivation are still obscure. In this work, altered pathways in ALS astrocytes were unveiled by investigating the proteomic profile of primary spinal-cord astrocytes derived from transgenic ALS mouse model overexpressing the human (h)SOD1(G93A) protein, in comparison with the transgenic counterpart expressing hSOD1(WT) protein. In this research, we showed that hSOD1(G93A) astrocytes present a profound alterations in the expression of proteins involved in proteostasis and glutathione metabolism.

miRNA expression in fast and slow skeletal muscle of wild type and SOD1-G93A mice

Project description:Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a lethal motor neuron disease that progressively debilitates neuronal cells that control voluntary muscle activity. In a mouse model of ALS that expresses mutated human superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1-G93A) skeletal muscle is one of the tissues affected early by mutant SOD1 toxicity. Fast-twitch and slow-twitch muscles are differentially affected in ALS patients and in the SOD1-G93A model, fast-twitch muscles being more vulnerable. We used miRNA microarrays to investigate miRNA alterations in fast-twitch (EDL) and slow-twitch (soleus) skeletal muscles of symptomatic SOD1-G93A animals and their age-matched wild type littermates.

Transcription profiling of mouse model of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) vs. wild type

Project description:mRNA expression in the spinal cords of the G93A-SOD1 familial ALS transgenic mouse model was compared to that in nontransgenic (Normal mouse) and transgenic mice expressing wild-type (WT)SOD1. Gene Ontology (GO)analysis was used to characterize differences in expression between G93A-SOD1 mouse and nontransgenic mouse spinal cord. Changes in multiple GO categories were found. Many of these were associated with subsystems involving cell-cell communication and intracellular signal transduction. Expression profiles of mice expressing WT-SOD1 did not differ from nontransgenic mice. In contrast, protein profiling using proteomics technology indicated changes in mitochondrial protein expression in the G93A-SOD1 mouse spinal cord that were not found in the mRNA expression analysis.

Transcriptome profiling of SOD1 mutant ALS model motor neurons.

Project description:Recent genetic studies of ALS patients have identified several forms of ALS that are associated with mutations in RNA binding proteins. In animals or cultured cells, such defects broadly affect RNA metabolism. This raises the question of whether all forms of ALS have general effects on RNA metabolism. We tested this hypothesis in a mouse model of ALS that is transgenic for a human disease-causing mutation in the enzyme superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1). We analyzed RNA from laser-captured spinal cord motor neuron cell bodies of the mutant SOD1 strain, comparing the RNA profile with that from a corresponding wild-type SOD1 transgenic strain. We prepared the samples from animals that were presymptomatic, but which manifested abnormalities at the cellular level that are seen in ALS, including aggregation of the mutant protein in motor neuron cell bodies and defective morphology of neuromuscular junctions, the connections between neuron and muscle. We observed only minor changes in the level and splicing of RNA in the SOD1 mutant animals as compared with wild-type, suggesting that mutant SOD1 produces the toxic effects of ALS by a mechanism that does not involve global RNA disturbance. RNA-Seq of laser microdissection of motor neuron bodies from two biological replicates each of SOD1 YFP (wildtype 592) and SOD1 G85R YFP (737) transgenic mice.

Cortical glia in SOD1(G93A) mice are subtly affected by ALS-like pathology

Project description:The role of glia in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is undeniable. Their disease-related activity has been extensively studied in the spinal cord, but only partly in the brain. We present herein a comprehensive study of glia in the motor cortex of SOD1(G93A) mice – a widely used model of ALS. Using single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) and immunohistochemistry, we inspected astrocytes, microglia and oligodendrocytes, in four stages of the disease, respecting the factor of sex. We report insignificant motor neuron loss in the cortex, and likewise, minimal changes of glia throughout the disease progression and regardless of sex. Pseudobulk and single-cell analyses revealed subtle disease-related transcriptional alterations at the end-stage in microglia and oligodendrocytes, which were supported by immunohistochemistry. Therefore, our data conclusively prove that the SOD1(G93A) mouse motor cortex does not recapitulate the disease in patients, and we recommend the use of a different model for future studies of the cortical ALS pathology.

An emergent disease-associated motor neuron state precedes cell death in a mouse model of ALS [multiome]

Project description:To uncover molecular determinants of motor neuron degeneration and selective vulnerability in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), we performed longitudinal single-nucleus RNA sequencing, paired single-nucleus RNA and ATAC sequencing, and MERFISH spatial transcriptomics from control and SOD1-G93A mouse spinal cords. For the final snRNA-seq analysis, control experiments from Blum et al., Nat Neurosci, 2021 (GEO accession: GSE161621) were also used.
