Project description:Moyamoya disease (MMD) is a cerebrovascular disease characterized by progressive stenosis of the intracranial internal carotid arteries and their proximal branches. However, the etiology of this rare disease remains widely unknown. Serum microRNA (miRNA) profiles have been screened to identify novel biomarkers for disease diagnosis and prognosis. Here, we identified important serum miRNAs that might play important roles in contributing to MMD pathogenesis through microarray analysis. 10 MMD patients and 10 controls were consecutively recruited at Shanghai Changhai Hospital. Five-ml venous blood was collected from each participant and separated into serum and cellular fractions. We pooled serum samples from 10 MMD patients and 10 controls. Agilent Human 8 x 60K miRNA Array was performed on the two pooled samples.

Project description:Transcriptome analysis of vascular smooth muscle cells differentiated from iPS-derived neural crest stem cells in Moyamoya disease Moyamoya disease (MMD) is a rare cerebrovascular disorder characterized by steno-occlusive changes in the cerebral arteries at the base of the brain with unknown etiology, although histopathological features have demonstrated as fibrocellular thickening of the intima and medial thinning on the steno-occlusive arteries. However, the pathophysiology of proliferating cells in the thickened intima is still obscure. Furthermore, biological features of the vascular smooth muscle cells are unclear in MMD. Here, we aimed to analyze whole genome gene expression profile in VSMC using induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cell line. We generated iPS cell line from the blood of MMD with RNF213 R4810K risk allele (rs112735431) or healthy control without the risk allele. VSMCs were differentiated from iPS-derived neural crest stem cells. As a result, we successfully established cranio-cervical region specific VSMC confirmed by immunocytochemistry. Biological cellular features, including cellular proliferation, migration, and contraction ability were similar in VSMCs between MMD and control. Genome-wide gene expression analysis showed similar transcriptome profile in the VSMCs between MMD and control. Differential gene expression analysis in MMD-VSMC revealed 6 differentially expressed genes (4 upregulated, 2 down regulated in MMD), including decorin (DCN, upregulated in MMD), playing an inhibitory role in angiogenesis. In conclusion, VSMCs are not impaired in cellular function with similar transcriptome profile in MMD compared to healthy control. Since many previous studies have shown impaired EC features in MMD, our study suggests EC may play more role in the vascular pathogenesis in MMD rather than VSMC.

Project description:Background: Moyamoya is a cerebrovascular condition of unknown mechanism characterized by a progressive stenosis of the terminal part of the internal carotid arteries (ICA) and the compensatory development of abnormal “moyamoya” vessels. It leads to ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke. We describe a novel autosomal recessive disease leading to severe moyamoya and early onset achalasia and report its cause in 3 unrelated families. Methods: We used a combination of genetic linkage and exome sequencing in 2 consanguineous to identify rare shared variants. Sanger sequencing of GUCY1A3, the sole gene mutated in both families, was then conducted in the third family. Platelets from one of the patients and controls were used to carry out functional studies. Results: Homozygous mutations of GUCY1A3 gene encoding the alpha1 subunit of soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC), the major receptor for Nitric Oxide (NO), were identified in all 3 families. Platelet analysis showed a complete loss of the mutated protein and showed an unexpected stimulatory role of sGC within platelets. Conclusion: The NO/sGC/cGMP pathway is a major pathway controlling vascular smooth muscle (VSMC) relaxation, vascular tone and vascular remodeling. Our data suggest that alterations of this pathway may lead to an abnormal vascular remodeling process in sensitive vascular areas with low blood A total of 17 samples (8 affected and 9 unaffected) were used for this study. Linkage analysis was performed in a single informative consanguine family composed of 2 unaffected parents, 4 affected siblings and 3 unaffected siblings. Two affected samples in two different families were used for the exome sequencing analysis and results were compared to 20 control exomes (in-house exomes from IntegraGen, Evry, France) and 8 HapMap exomes. All samples were used for Sanger Sequencing confirmation.

Project description:At present, the treatment for moyamoya disease (MMD) primarily consists of combined direct and indirect bypass surgery. Nevertheless, more than half of indirect bypass surgeries fail to develop good collaterals from the dura and temporal muscle. This study aimed to investigate whether microRNAs (miRNAs) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) could serve as biomarkers for the prediction of postoperative collateral formation.

Project description:RNF213 is the major susceptibility factor for Moyamoya disease, a progressive cerebrovascular disorder that often leads to brain stroke in adults and children. Characterization of disease-associated mutations has been complicated by the enormous size of RNF213. Here we present the cryo-EM structure of mouse RNF213. The structure reveals the intricate fold of the 584 kDa protein, comprising an N-terminal stalk, a dynein-like core with six ATPase units, and a multidomain E3 module. Collaboration with UbcH7, a cysteine-reactive E2, points to an unexplored ubiquitin-transfer mechanism that proceeds in a RING-independent manner. Moreover, we show that pathologic MMD mutations cluster in the composite E3 domain, likely interfering with substrate ubiquitination. In conclusion, the structure of RNF213 uncovers a distinct type of an E3 enzyme, highlighting the growing mechanistic diversity in ubiquitination cascades. Our results also provide the molecular framework for investigating the emerging role of RNF213 in lipid metabolism, hypoxia, and angiogenesis.

Project description:Moyamoya disease (MMD) and atherosclerosis (ICAD) are both common causes of chronic intracranial vascular occlusion. Surgical revascularization is the preferred procedure for MMD but is not recommended for ICAD, and may be related to vascular reserve capacity, however, the precise reason is not fully understood. Previous studies showed exosomes could regulate revascularization, so we hypothesize plasma exosomal proteins play critical roles in MMD during revascularization. Quantitative proteomics technique and bioinformatics method were used to identify potential key plasma exosomal proteins for revascularization in MMD.

Project description:We aim to investigate circulating genome-wide microRNA (miRome) profiles in Moyamoya disease (MMD)-discordant monozygotic (MZ) twins with the RNF213 founder mutation (rs112735431).A disease discordant monozygotic twin-based study design may unmask potential confounders from previously published circulating microRNA signature in MMD. Circulating genome-wide microRNA (miRNome) profiling was performed in MMD-discordant monozygotic twins, non-twin-MMD patients, and non-MMD healthy volunteers by microarray followed by qPCRvalidation, using blood samples. Differential plasma-microRNAs were further quantified in endothelial cells differentiated from iPS cell lines (iPSECs) derived from another independent non-twin cohort. Lastly, their target gene expression in the iPSECs was analyzed. Microarray detected 309 plasma-microRNAs in MMD-discordant monozygotic twins that were also detected in the non-twin cohort. Principal component analysis of the plasma-microRNA expression level demonstrated distinct 2 groups separated by MMD and healthy control in the twin- and non-twin cohorts. Of these, differential up-regulations of hsa-miR-6722-3p/-328-3p were validated in the plasma of MMD (Imposed threshold: absolute log2 expression fold change (logFC) > 0.26 for the twin cohort; absolute logFC > 0.26, p < 0.05, and q < 0.15 for the non-twin cohort). In MMD derived iPSECs, hsa-miR-6722-3p/-328-3p showed a trend of up-regulation with a 3.0- or higher expression fold change. Bioinformatics analysis revealed that 41 target genes of miR- 6722-3p/-328-3p were significantly down-regulated in MMD derived iPSECs and were involved in STAT3, IGF-1-, and PTEN-signaling, suggesting a potential microRNA- gene expression interaction between circulating plasma and endothelial cells. In conclusion, our MMD-discordant monozygotic twin-based study confirmed a novel circulating microRNA signature in MMD as a potential diagnostic biomarker minimally confounded by genetic heterogeneity. The novel circulating microRNA signature can contribute for the future functional microRNA analysis to find new diagnostic and therapeutic target of MMD.
