Quantification and discovery of sequence determinants of protein per mRNA amount in 29 human tissues

ABSTRACT: We analyzed the contribution of known sequence determinants of protein synthesis and degradation and novel mRNA and protein sequence motifs that we found by association testing. In order to investigate the functional understanding of novel mRNA motifs, an RNA competitive-binding assay was developed to systematically identify motif-specific RNA binding proteins and to measure interaction strength thereof.

Despite their importance in determining protein abundance, a comprehensive catalogue of sequence features controlling protein-to-mRNA (PTR) ratios and a quantification of their effects are still lacking. Here, we quantified PTR ratios for 11,575 proteins across 29 human tissues using matched transcriptomes and proteomes. We estimated by regression the contribution of known sequence determinants of protein synthesis and degradation in addition to 45 mRNA and 3 protein sequence motifs that we foun ...[more]

Project description:Within the regulatory framework on the approval of new substances, the assessment of immunotoxic modes of action (MoA) is currently not covered. This is not least due to the lack of standardized methods and reliable validated biomarkers for immunotoxic effects. The experimental set up was designed to analyze the compound-specific response of zebrafish embryos to two immunomodulative reference substances, clobetasol propionate (CP, CAS 25122-46-7) and imiquimod (IMQ, CAS 99011-02-6), on the global level of gene expression. The obtained results were used to (i) identify potential biomarker candidates for the assessment of immunotoxic MoAs, (ii) identify compound-specific molecular signatures, (iii) evaluate the reliability of data acquisition using OMICs-coupled approaches and (iv) to assess the suitability of the zebrafish embryo as an alternative model for the human-representative investigation of psoriatic effects. For this, the transcriptomic profiles of embryos were bioinformatically analysed subsequent to an CP-induced immunosuppression in absence or presence of an IMQ-induced immune challenge, i.e. the simulation of a resting and an activated immune system. In a modified version of the zebrafish embryo toxicity test (OECD 236), 15 fertilized eggs were exposed to either CP (250 nM) or to IMQ (4000 nM) or to a combination of both under semi static conditions. Exposure to CP started at 2 hours post fertilization (hpf) until 72 hpf. Exposure to IMQ started at 48 hpf until 72 hpf. Untreated embryos reared in medium without CP nor IMQ dissolved was used as a negative control. All conditions comprised three biological replicates. Medium was exchanged on a daily basis by renewing half its volume. Occurrence of morphological changes and indicators of lethality as described in the OECD test guideline 236 were examined microscopically on a daily basis. At 72 hpf, all larvae were pooled for each sample for RNA extraction using a NucleoSpin RNA/Protein kit (Macherey-Nagel) following the manufacturer’s protocol. RNA quality was assessed with a 2100 Bioanalyzer system (Agilent) before coding RNA was purified (PolyA selection with TruSeq RNA Library Prep Kit v2) and sequenced on an Illumina NovaSeq 6000 System (Illumina) in 150 bp paired-end mode, producing a minimum of 30 million reads per sample. Adapter sequences were removed with trimmomatic and sequences were aligned to the Danio rerio reference genome GRCz11 with STAR. Counting of feature mapped reads was performed through featureCounts. Library gene count tables were then merged to a single count matrix as input for differential gene expression analysis with DESeq2.

Project description:Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a major neurodegenerative disease characterized by extracellular amyloid β (Aβ) plaques and intracellular hyperphosphorylated tau (P-tau). Increasing evidence indicates that extracellular vesicles (EVs) play an important role in AD pathogenesis. We previously reported that the choroid plexus epithelial (CPE) cells, present at the interface between blood and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), show increased secretion of EVs into the CSF in response to peripheral inflammation. Here, we studied the importance of CP-derived EVs in AD pathogenesis. We observed increased EV levels in the CSF of 7 weeks old transgenic APP/PS1 mice, correlating with higher Aβ CSF levels at this age, while levels normalized with age. To study whether the elevated Aβ CSF levels might be responsible for this increase, mice were intracerebroventricularly (icv) injected with Aβ oligomers (AβO) which revealed a significant increase in the amount of CD9 and CD81 positive EVs in the CSF. The importance of the CPE cells as EV source was shown by in vitro analysis of AβO stimulated primary CPE cells and in vivo analysis of the CP by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Evaluation of EV marker immunostaining, both from AβO icv injected mice and APP/PS1 mice, confirmed the upregulation of EV biogenesis in the CP. Interestingly, AβO-induced, CP-derived EVs induced pro-inflammatory effects in mixed cortical cultures (MCC) whereas proteome analysis revealed the presence of complement protein C3, amongst other inflammatory proteins. Additionally, we could show for the first time that AβO induce an upregulation of C3 in CPE cells. These data highlight the CP and CP-derived, C3-containing EVs as novel players in the emerging importance of the complement pathway in the pathogenesis of AD. Strikingly, inhibition of EV production using GW4869 resulted in protection against the AβO-induced cognitive decline. In conclusion, our results show that intraventricular AβO induce both C3 activation and EV secretion by the CP and that these EVs contain pro-inflammatory molecules, including C3, which play a role in neuroinflammation and loss of cognition. This suggests that inhibition of EV production by the CP might be an interesting therapeutic approach to be explored in the prevention or treatment of AD.
