Molecular signatures underlying neurofibrillary tangle susceptibility in Alzheimer’s disease

Project description:Tau aggregation in neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) is closely associated with neurodegeneration and cognitive decline in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). However, the molecular signatures that distinguish between aggregation-prone and aggregation-resistant cell states are unknown. We developed methods for the high-throughput isolation and transcriptome profiling of single somas with NFTs fro¬m human AD brain, quantified the susceptibility of 20 neocortical subtypes for NFT formation and death, and identified both shared and cell-type-specific signatures. NFT-bearing neurons shared a marked upregulation of synaptic transmission-related genes, including a core set of 63 genes enriched for synaptic vesicle cycling. Oxidative phosphorylation and mitochondrial dysfunction were highly cell-type dependent. Apoptosis was only modestly enriched, and the susceptibilities of NFT-bearing and NFT-free neurons for death were highly similar. Our analysis suggests that NFTs represent cell-type-specific responses to stress and synaptic dysfunction. We provide a resource for biomarker discovery and the investigation of tau-dependent and tau-independent mechanisms of neurodegeneration.

Reversion of Alzheimer’s disease signatures

Project description:Chemical Checker (CC) is a resource that provides processed, harmonized and integrated bioactivity data on 800,000 small molecules. In the CC, bioactivity data are expressed in a vector format, which naturally extends the notion of chemical similarity between compounds to similarities between bioactivity signatures of different kinds. We experimentally validate that CC signatures can be used to reverse and mimic biological signatures of disease models and genetic perturbations. We developed cellular models of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) by introducing familial AD (fAD) mutations into SH-SY5Y cells. Using CRISPR/Cas9-induced homology-directed repair, we obtained clones harboring the fAD PSEN1-M146V or the APP-V717F mutations. Three compounds (noscapine - 10 uM, palbociclib - 0.4 uM and AG-494 - 10uM) reverted fAD signatures. We confirmed that genes up-regulated in SH-SY5Y fAD mutants were indeed downregulated upon treatment with the drugs, and vice versa. Moreover, the three drug treatments significantly reverted a subset of genes strongly linked to AD, including the recovery of the expression levels of GRIN2D, a glutamate receptor involved in synaptic transmission and BIN1, a gene involved in synaptic vesicle endocytosis and strongly associated with AD risk.

Molecular characterization of selectively vulnerable neurons in Alzheimer’s Disease

Project description:Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is characterized by the selective vulnerability of specific neuronal populations, the molecular signatures of which are largely unknown. To identify and characterize selectively vulnerable neuronal populations, we used single-nucleus RNA sequencing to profile the caudal entorhinal cortex and the superior frontal gyrus – brain regions where neurofibrillary inclusions and neuronal loss occur early and late in AD, respectively – from individuals spanning the neuropathological progression of AD. We identified RORB as a marker of selectively vulnerable excitatory neurons in the entorhinal cortex, and subsequently validated their depletion and selective susceptibility to neurofibrillary inclusions during disease progression using quantitative neuropathological methods. We also discovered an astrocyte subpopulation, likely representing reactive astrocytes, characterized by decreased expression of genes involved in homeostatic functions. Our characterization of selectively vulnerable neurons in AD paves the way for future mechanistic studies of selective vulnerability and potential therapeutic strategies for enhancing neuronal resilience. The brain tissue used in this study were sourced from the Biobank for Aging Studies (LIM-22) in the Department of Pathology at the University of Sao Paulo, as well as from the Neurodegenerative Diseases Brain Bank in the Memory and Aging Center at the University of California, San Francisco. Detailed neuropathological, clinical and genetic data are available under request. Please contact gerolab@gmail.com and lea.grinberg@ucsf.edu.

Chronic intermittent hypoxia enhances pathological tau seeding, propagation, and accumulation, and exacerbates Alzheimer’s-like memory and synaptic plasticity deficits and molecular signatures

Project description:Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), characterized by sleep fragmentation and chronic intermittenthypoxia (CIH), is a risk factor for Alzheimer’s disease (AD) progression. Recent epidemiologicalstudies point to CIH as the best predictor of developing cognitive decline and AD in elderly withOSA. However, the precise underlying mechanism(s) remain unknown. The present study wasundertaken to evaluate the effect of CIH on pathological human tau seeding, propagation, andaccumulation, cognition, synaptic plasticity, neuronal network excitability, and gene expressionprofiles in a P301S human mutant tau mouse model of AD and related tauopathies. We exposed 4-4.5-month-old, male, P301S and WT mice to an 8-week CIH protocol (6 min cycle:21% O 2 to 8% O 2 to 21% O 2 , 80 cycles per 8 h during daytime), and assessed its effect on taupathology and various AD-related phenotypic and molecular signatures. Age- and gender-matched P301S and WT mice were reared in normoxia (21% O 2 ) as experimental controls. CIH significantly enhanced pathological human tau seeding and spread across connected brain circuitry in P301S mice; it also increased phospho-tau load. CIH also exacerbated memory and synaptic plasticity deficits in P301S mice. However, CIH had no effect on seizure susceptibility and network hyperexcitability in these mice. Finally, CIH exacerbated AD-related pathogenic molecular signaling in P301S mice. CIH-induced increase in pathologic human tau seeding and spread and exacerbation of other AD- related impairments provide new insights into the role of CIH and OSA in AD pathogenesis.
