Project description:In previous studies, miR-1825 has been found to be downregulated in the serum of familial and sporadic patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). In this study, we aim to identify the target mRNAs of miR-1825 using a combination of proteomic and transcriptomic approaches.

Project description:Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD) share key features, including accumulation of the RNA binding protein TDP-43. TDP-43 regulatesRNA homeostasis, but it remains unclear whether RNA stability is affected in these disorders. We used Bru-seq and BruChase-seq to assessgenome-wide RNA stabilityinALS patient-derived cells,demonstratingprofound destabilization of ribosomal and mitochondrial transcripts. This pattern wasrecapitulatedbyTDP-43 overexpression, suggesting a primary role for TDP-43 in RNA destabilization, and in post-mortem samples from ALS and FTD patients. Proteomics and functional studies illustrated corresponding reductionsin mitochondrial components and compensatory increasesin protein synthesis. Collectively, these observations suggest that TDP-43 deposition leads to targeted RNA instability in ALS and FTD, ultimately causing cell death by disrupting energy production and protein synthesis pathways.

Project description:Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) involves the degeneration of brain and spinal cord motor neurons. Mutations in Superoxide Dismutase 1 (SOD1), TAR DNA-binding protein 43 (TDP-43) and Fused-in-Sarcoma (FUS) account for 20-30 % of the familial ALS (fALS) cases. The RNA-binding proteins TDP-43 and FUS function in mRNA and miRNA biogenesis. MiRNAs are required for survival of neurons and deregulation of miRNA expression has been reported in several neurodegenerative disorders. Here, we report the dysregulation of DROSHA, DGCR8, and DICER in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells expressing the ALS-associated SOD1(G93A) mutant protein. MiRNA profiling in SH-SY5Y/SOD1(G93A) cells and transgenic SOD1(G93A) mice revealed upregulation of miR-129-5p at the early stage of disease. Moreover, miR-129-5p is also upregulated in lymphocytes of sporadic ALS patients. We demonstrate that miR-129-5p targets ELAVL4/HuD mRNA by binding to its 3’ UTR, which reduces HuD expression and impairs differentiation and neurite outgrowth. Conversely, treatment with an antagomir or complementation with HuD protein restores neuritogenesis. Collectively, our study identifies miR-129-5p and HuD as key regulators of neuronal differentiation and as potential therapeutic targets for ALS.

Project description:Background: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a devastating disorder of the central nervous system that leads to progressive loss of upper and lower motor neurons. Most cases are sporadic and of unknown aetiology. In this study, we screened 71 patients with sporadic ALS for the presence of DNA copy number variations, in order to identify novel candidate disease genes. Methods: We have used sub-megabase resolution BAC array comparative genomic hybridisation to detect genomic imbalances in our ALS patient cohort. In order to distinguish phenotypically neutral copy number variations occurring frequently in the normal population from disease-associated aberrations, we screened our results against both the Database of Genomic Variants and a reference data set of approximately 700 normal individuals and probands with other disorders analysed in our laboratory. Aberrations with potential relevance for disease aetiology were verified by oligo array CGH. Findings: In 71 patients with sporadic ALS, we identified a total of six duplications and seven deletions that scored above our threshold. Twelve of these thirteen variations were smaller than 1Mb. Seven were observed exclusively in ALS patients and thus likely play causal roles in the disorder. Analysis of these regions highlighted, for example, the SLC1A7 (EAAT5) glutamate transporter and the kinesin family member KIF9 as good positional and functional candidate genes for ALS. Interpretation: Non-polymorphic sub-microscopic duplications and deletions observable by array CGH are frequent in patients with sporadic ALS. Analysis of such aberrations serves as an excellent starting point in deciphering the aetiology of this complex disease. Keywords: array CGH A cohort of 71 ALS patients was analysed by means of a submegabase resolution BAC array. No replicates were included. Experiments were done without dye swap.
