Project description:We used microarrays to compare the global programme of gene expression in primary cultures of neurons and astrocytes. These data sets were compared to the expression profiles of other tissues, including pancreatic islets, in order to identify a specific neuroendocrine program in pancreatic islets. Neurons and astrocytes were isolated from brain cortex and cultured in vitro for 7 and 20 days respectively. RNA was extracted and hybridized on Affymetrix microarrays. Two biological samples from neurons and astrocytes were analyzed.

Project description:Astrocytes are implicated in neuronal development, particularly excitatory synaptogenesis, but their genome-wide impact is unclear. Using cell-type specific RNA-seq we show that cortical astrocytes induce widespread transcriptomic changes in developing cortical neurons. Rat cortical neurons were maintained in the presence or absence of mouse astrocytes, RNA-seq performed, and mixed-species RNA-seq reads sorted according to species. Cultures were also treated with TTX to abolish neuronal firing activity, to investigate the effects of the presence or absence activity-dependent signalling.

Project description:Functional recruitment of microglia depends on OXPHOS in vivo. OXPHOS upregualtion correlates with phagocytic activity of microglia in physiologycal conditions and with proinflammatory microglia in pathological conditions. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression underlying loss of mitochondrial Complex I in microglia cells and its impact in astrocytes gene expression.

Project description:Astrocytes are implicated in neuronal development, particularly excitatory synaptogenesis, but their genome-wide impact is unclear. Using cell-type specific ChIP-seq we show that cortical astrocytes induce widespread changes in developing cortical neurons in histone marks associated with active open chromatin and repressed/condensed chromatin. Rat cortical neurons were maintained in the presence or absence of mouse astrocytes, ChIP-seq performed, and mixed-species ChIP-seq reads sorted according to species.

Project description:Isolation of glia from Alzheimer's mice reveals inflammation and dysfunction. Reactive astrocytes and microglia are associated with amyloid plaques in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Yet, not much is known about the molecular alterations underlying this reactive phenotype. To get an insight into the molecular changes underlying AD induced astrocyte and microglia reactivity, we performed a transcriptional analysis on acutely isolated astrocytes and microglia from the cortex of aged controls and APPswe/PS1dE9 AD mice. As expected, both cell types acquired a proinflammatory phenotype, which confirms the validity of our approach. Interestingly, we observed that the immune alteration in astrocytes was relatively more pronounced than in microglia. Concurrently, our data reveal that astrocytes display a reduced expression of neuronal support genes and genes involved in neuronal communication. The microglia showed a reduced expression of phagocytosis and/or endocytosis genes. Co-expression analysis of a human AD expression data set and the astrocyte and microglia data sets revealed that the inflammatory changes in astrocytes were remarkably comparable in mouse and human AD, whereas the microglia changes showed less similarity. Based on these findings we argue that chronically proinflammatory astrocyte and microglia phenotypes, showing a reduction of genes involved in neuronal support and neuronal signaling, are likely to contribute to the neuronal dysfunction and cognitive decline in AD. 2 cell types from 2 conditions: cortical microglia and cortical astrocytes from 15-18 month old APPswe/PS1dE9 mice compared to wildtype littermates. Biological replicates: microglia from APPswe/PS1dE9, N=7, microglia from WT, N=7, astrocytes from APPswe/PS1dE9, N=4, microglia from WT, N=4

Project description:Rett syndrome (RTT; OMIM#312750) is a rare devastating neurodevelopmental disorder that represents the most common genetic cause of severe intellectual disability in girls. Mutations in the X-linked methyl-CpG-binding protein 2 (MECP2) gene have been reported in over 95% cases of classical forms of RTT. Although initial studies supported a role for MeCP2 exclusively in neurons, recent data indicate a function also in astrocytes, which emerged as critical players involved in RTT pathogenesis through non-cell autonomous effects. Indeed, Mecp2 knock-out (KO) astrocytes cannot properly support neuronal maturation of wilt-type (WT) neurons and our data demonstrated a detrimental effect also on synaptogenesis and synaptic maintainence. Nevertheless, the molecular mechanisms by which RTT astrocytes can impact on neuronal health remains unknown. In comparison to previous studies exploring the transcriptomic and proteomic profiles of KO astrocytes per se, we used an indirect strategy to unveil the molecular mechanisms responsible for their negative action on neurons. We thus analysed the molecular pathways deregulated in WT neurons cultivated under the influence of KO (n=8) versus WT (n=7) astrocytes, in a transwell-based co-culture system, that allows the exchange of paracrine signals preventing cell-to-cell contact. Astrocytes were seeded on transwell inserts and transferred on neurons at Div0; the co-cultures were maintained until Div14. WT cortical neurons cultivated alone were also included (n=5).
