Defining blood-induced microglia functions in neurodegeneration through multiomic profiling

ABSTRACT: Blood protein extravasation through a disrupted blood–brain barrier and innate immune activation are hallmarks of neurological diseases and emerging therapeutic targets. However, how blood proteins polarize innate immune cells remains largely unknown. Here, we established an unbiased blood-innate immunity multiomic and genetic loss-of-function pipeline to define the transcriptome and global phosphoproteome of blood-induced innate immune polarization and its role in microglia neurotoxicity. Blood induced widespread microglial transcriptional changes, including changes involving oxidative stress and neurodegenerative genes. Comparative functional multiomics showed that blood proteins induce distinct receptor-mediated transcriptional programs in microglia and macrophages, such as redox, type 1 interferon and lymphocyte recruitment. Deletion of the blood coagulation factor fibrinogen largely reversed blood-induced microglia neurodegenerative signatures. Genetic elimination of the fibrinogen-binding motif to CD11b in Alzheimer’s disease mice reduced microglial lipid metabolism and neurodegenerative signatures that were shared with autoimmune-driven neuroinflammation in multiple sclerosis mice. Our data provide an interactive resource for investigation of the immunology of blood proteins that could support therapeutic targeting of microglia activation by immune and vascular signals.

Fibrinogen promotes autoimmunity and demyelination via chemokine release and antigen presentation [Rn]

Project description:Determination of the mechanism by which fibrinogen, a central blood coagulation protein drives immunological responses targeted to the CNS. Results identify the factors involved in the regulation and provide mechanistic basis. We subjected fibrin-stimulated microglia to microarray to determine the genes involved in innate and adaptive immune responses by fibrinogen deposited in the CNS after blood-brain barrier disruption. Rat microglia were stimulated with fibrin for 6 hr and subjected for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymatrix microarrays. Two unstimulated and two fibrin-stimulated samples were generated.

SIRT1 deficiency in microglia contributes to cognitive decline in aging and neurodegeneration via epigenetic regulation of IL-1beta

Project description:Aging is the predominant risk factor for neurodegenerative diseases. One key phenotype as brain ages is the aberrant innate immune response characterized by proinflammation. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying aging-associated proinflammation are poorly defined. Whether chronic inflammation plays a causal role in cognitive decline in aging and neurodegeneration has not been established. Here we established a mechanistic link between chronic inflammation and aging microglia, and demonstrated a causal role of aging microglia in neurodegenerative cognitive deficits. Expression of microglial SIRT1 reduces with the aging of microglia. Genetic reduction of microglial SIRT1 elevates IL-1Î² selectively, and exacerbates cognitive deficits in aging and in transgenic mouse models of frontotemporal dementia (FTD). Interestingly, the selective activation of IL-1Î² transcription by SIRT1 deficiency is likely mediated through hypomethylating the proximal promoter of IL-1Î². Consistent with our findings in mice, selective hypomethylation of IL-1Î² at two CpG sites are found in normal aging humans and demented patients with tauopathy. Our findings reveal a novel epigenetic mechanism in aging microglia that contributes to cognitive deficits in neurodegenerative diseases.

SYK coordinates neuroprotective microglial responses in neurodegenerative disease [scRNA-seq]

Project description:Many neurodegenerative diseases are thought to be caused by impaired containment and/or disposal of neurotoxic material such as amyloid beta (Ab) and myelin debris. Indeed, recent human genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and animal model studies have begun to reveal critical roles for the brain’s professional phagocytes, microglia, as well as various innate immune receptors expressed by microglia in the control of neurotoxic material and subsequent neurodegenerative disease pathogenesis. Yet, the critical intracellular molecules that orchestrate the neuroprotective functions of microglia in degenerative disorders remain poorly understood. In our studies, we have identified the innate immune signaling molecule spleen tyrosine kinase (SYK) as a key regulator of microglial phagocytosis in neurodegenerative disease. We find that targeted deletion of SYK in microglia leads to exacerbated Ab deposition, aggravated neuropathology, and cognitive defects in the 5xFAD mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Furthermore, disruption of SYK signaling in this AD model was also shown to impede the development of disease-associated microglia (DAMs), alter AKT/GSK3b-signaling in microglia, and to cause severe deficits in the ability of microglia to phagocytose Ab. Importantly, these critical neuroprotective functions of SYK in microglia were not only restricted to Ab-driven models of neurodegeneration, as we found that SYK is also a critical regulator of microglial phagocytosis and DAM phenotype acquisition in demyelinating disease. Collectively, these results help to break new ground in our understanding of the key innate immune signaling molecules that instruct beneficial microglial functions in response to neurotoxic material. Moreover, these findings suggest that targeting SYK may offer a therapeutic strategy to treat a spectrum of neurodegenerative disorders.

Fibrin promotes oxidative stress and neuronal loss in traumatic brain injury via innate immune activation

Project description:Traumatic brain injury (TBI) causes significant blood-brain barrier (BBB) breakdown, resulting in the extravasation of blood proteins into the brain. The impact of blood proteins, especially fibrinogen, on inflammation and neurodegeneration post-TBI is not fully understood, highlighting a critical gap in our comprehension of TBI pathology and its connection to innate immune activation. We combined vascular casting with 3D imaging of solvent-cleared organs (uDISCO) to study the spatial distribution of the blood coagulation protein fibrinogen in large, intact brain volumes and assessed the temporal regulation of the fibrin(ogen) deposition by immunohistochemistry in a murine model of TBI. Fibrin(ogen) deposition and innate immune cell markers were co-localized by immunohistochemistry in mouse and human brains after TBI. We assessed the role of fibrinogen in TBI using unbiased transcriptomics, flow cytometry and immunohistochemistry for innate immune and neuronal markers in Fggγ390–396A knock-in mice, which express a mutant fibrinogen that retains normal clotting function, but lacks the γ390–396 binding motif to CD11b/CD18 integrin receptor. We show that cerebral fibrinogen deposits were associated with activated innate immune cells in both human and murine TBI. Genetic elimination of fibrin-CD11b interaction reduced peripheral monocyte recruitment and the activation of inflammatory and reactive oxygen species (ROS) gene pathways in microglia and macrophages after TBI. Blockade of the fibrin-CD11b interaction was also protective from oxidative stress damage and cortical loss after TBI. These data suggest that fibrinogen is a regulator of innate immune activation and neurodegeneration in TBI. Abrogating post-injury neuroinflammation by selective blockade of fibrin’s inflammatory functions may have implications for long-term neurologic recovery following brain trauma.
