Patient-derived recombinant autoantibodies reveal the subcellular neuroglial distribution and heterogeneous interactome of leucine-rich glioma-inactivated 1

ABSTRACT: Autoantibodies against leucine-rich glioma-inactivated 1 (LGI1) occur in patients with encephalitis who present with frequent focal seizures and a pattern of amnesia consistent with focal hippocampal damage. To investigate whether the cellular and subcellular distribution of LGI1 may explain the localisation of these features, and gain broader insights into LGI1’s neurobiology, we analysed the detailed distribution of LGI1, and the diversity of its protein interactome, in mouse brains using recombinant monoclonal LGI1-antibodies derived from encephalitis patients. Combined immunofluorescence and mass spectrometry analyses showed that LGI1 is enriched in excitatory and inhibitory synaptic contact sites, most densely within CA3 regions of the hippocampus. LGI1 is secreted in both neuronal somatodendritic and axonal compartments, and occurs in oligodendrocytic, neuro-oligodendrocytic and astro-microglial protein complexes. Proteomic data support the hypothesis that destabilization of Kv1 / MAGUK complexes by autoantibodies could promote excitability, but did not reveal LGI1 complexes with postsynaptic glutamate receptors. Our results extend our understanding of regional, cellular and subcellular LGI1 expression profiles and reveal novel LGI1-associated complexes, thus providing insights into the complex biology of LGI1 and its relationship to seizures and memory loss.

Molecular Basis of Kv1 Channel Downregulation and Its Epileptogenic Implications in Lgi1 Knock-out Mice

Project description:The Kv1 members (KCNA, Shaker) of the voltage-gated potassium channels are implicated in determining key functional neuronal properties from spike generation at axonal initial segments to the control of synaptic strength at nerve terminals. In animal models of LGI1-dependent autosomal dominant lateral temporal lobe epilepsy (ADTLE), Kv1 channels are downregulated, suggesting their crucial involvement in epileptogenesis. The molecular basis of Kv1 channel-downregulation in LGI1 knock-out mice has not been elucidated and how the absence of this extracellular protein induces an important modification in the expression of Kv1 remains unknown. In this study we analyse by immunofluorescence the detailed modifications in neuronal Kv1.1 and Kv1.2 distribution throughout the hippocampal formation of LGI1 knock-out mice. We show that Kv1 downregulation is not restricted to the axonal compartment, but also takes place in the somatodendritic region and is accompanied by a drastic decrease in Kv2 expression levels. Moreover, we find that the downregulation of these Kv channels is associated with an important increase in bursting patterns. Finally, mass spectrometry uncovered key important modifications in the Kv1 interactome that highlight the epileptogenic implication of Kv1 downregulation in LGI1 knock-out animals.

Human NMDAR autoantibodies disrupt excitatory-inhibitory balance leading to hippocampal network hypersynchrony

Project description:Specific autoantibodies against the NMDA-receptor (NMDAR) GluN1 subunit cause severe and debilitating NMDAR-encephalitis. Autoantibodies induce prototypic disease symptoms resembling schizophrenia, including psychosis and cognitive dysfunction. Using a mouse passive transfer model applying human monoclonal anti-GluN1-autoantibodies, we observed CA1 pyramidal neuron hypoexcitability, reduced AMPA-receptor (AMPAR) signaling, and faster synaptic inhibition resulting in disrupted excitatory-inhibitory balance. Functional alterations were supported by widespread remodeling of the hippocampal proteome, including changes in glutamatergic and GABAergic neurotransmission. At the network level, anti-GluN1-autoantibodies amplified gamma oscillations and disrupted theta-gamma coupling. A data-informed network model revealed that lower AMPAR strength and faster GABAA-receptor current kinetics chiefly account for these abnormal oscillations. As predicted by our model and evidenced experimentally, positive allosteric modulation of AMPARs alleviated aberrant gamma activity and thus reinforced the causative effects of the excitatory-inhibitory imbalance. Collectively, NMDAR-hypofunction-induced aberrant synaptic, cellular, and network dynamics provide new mechanistic insights into disease symptoms in NMDAR-encephalitis and schizophrenia.

Role of IgG autoantibodies in the pathogenesis of IgA nephropathy assessed in a passive mouse model

Project description:IgA nephropathy (IgAN), the most common primary glomerulonephritis worldwide, is characterized by IgA1-containing glomerular immunodeposits. These immunodeposits are thought to originate from the circulating immune complexes consisting of aberrantly glycosylated IgA1 (galactose-deficient IgA1; Gd-IgA1) bound by IgG autoantibodies. This hypothesis is supported by the findings that renal immunodeposits of IgA nephropathy patients are enriched for IgG autoantibodies specific for galactose-deficient IgA1 (Rizk et al., J. Am. Soc. Nephrol. 30(10), 2017-2026, 2019). However, experimental proof is needed. This study provides in vivo data in mice that support the pathogenic role of IgG autoantibodies in IgAN.

Chromatin immunoprecipitation in dot1 deletion and G1 or G2 arrested yeast cells to identify methylation patterns

Project description:To define the molecular regulators required for differential pattern of H3K79 methylation by Dot1, we performed a GPS screen and discovered that the components of the cell cycle-regulated SBF complex were required for normal levels of H3K79 di- but not trimethylation. Genome-wide mapping revealed that H3K79 di- and trimethylation to present a mutually exclusive pattern on chromatin with M/G1 cell-cycle-regulated genes significantly enriched for H3K79 dimethylation. Since H3K79 trimethylation requires prior monoubiquitination of H2B, we performed genome-wide profiling of H2BK123 monoubiquitination and showed that H2BK123 monoubiquitination is excluded from cell cycle regulated genes and sites containing H3K79me2 but not from H3K79me3 containing regions. A genome-wide screen for factors responsible for the establishment/removal of H3K79 dimethylation resulted in the identification of several genes including NRM1 and WHI3, which both impact the transcription by the SBF, and MBF complexes, further linking the regulation of H3K79's methylation status to the cell cycle.

Oxidized mitochondrial nucleoids released by neutrophils drive type I Interferon production in human lupus

Project description:Autoantibodies against nucleic acids and excessive type I Interferon (IFN) are hallmarks of human Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). We previously reported that SLE neutrophils, exposed to TLR7-agonist autoantibodies, release interferogenic DNA, which we now demonstrate to be of mitochondrial origin. We further show that healthy human neutrophils do not complete mitophagy upon induction of mitochondrial damage. Rather, they extrude mitochondrial components, including DNA (mtDNA), devoid of oxidized residues. When MtDNA undergoes oxidation, it is directly routed to lysosomes for degradation. This rerouting requires dissociation from the transcription factor TFAM, a dual high mobility group (HMG) protein involved in maintenance and compaction of the mitochondrial genome into nucleoids. Exposure of SLE neutrophils, or healthy IFNprimed neutrophils, to anti-RNP autoantibodies blocks TFAM phosphorylation, a necessary step for nucleoid dissociation. Consequently, oxidized nucleoids accumulate within mitochondria and are eventually extruded as potent interferogenic complexes. In support of the in vivo relevance of this phenomenon, mitochondrial retention of oxidized nucleoids is a feature of SLE blood neutrophils, and autoantibodies against oxidized mtDNA are present in a fraction of patients. This pathway represents a novel therapeutic target in human SLE. 4 samples, no replicates, 2 controls. 2 samples are Neutrophils cultured with and without CCCP (control). 2 samples are Monocytes cultured with and without CCCP (control).

Human Rheumatoid Arthritis LC-MSMS

Project description:Malondialdehyde-modified epitopes (MDA-epitopes) can elicit specific autoantibody that expressed oxidative stress arising in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The purpose of this study was to discover and validate MDA-peptide adducts as novel biomarkers using concanavalin A affinity chromatography, 1D SDS-PAGE, in-gel digestion, and label-free nano-LC-MS, and evaluate levels of serum MDA, MDA-protein adducts, proteins and autoantibody isotypes against an unmodified and MDA-peptide from Taiwanese female patients with RA and healthy controls (HCs). Levels of serum MDA and MDA-protein adducts were significantly higher in RA patients versus HCs. Four differentially expressed novel MDA-peptides were selected that relative modification ratio were 2-fold differences to examine protein levels and assess autoantibodies to MDA-peptides in RA patients compared with HCs. Four of peptides are autoantigens. Furthermore, 4 MDA-peptides can induce more autoantibody isotypes that are statistical significance in RA patients compared to HCs. Serum IgG and IgM against MDA-peptides showed excellent diagnostic performance in discriminating among RA patients and HCs: area under the curve (AUC, 0.96 ~ 0.98), sensitivity (88.9% ~ 97.8%) and specificity (88.9% ~ 100%). Autoantibodies to MDA-epitopes indicate oxidative modifications occurring in RA, and might be useful as clinical markers fro RA diagnosis if further investigated.

A non-canonical SWI/SNF complex underlies synthetic lethality in cancers driven by BAF complex perturbation

Project description:Mammalian SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complexes exist in three distinct, final-form assemblies: canonical BAF (cBAF), PBAF, and a newly characterized non-canonical complex, ncBAF. However, their complex-specific targeting on chromatin, functions and roles in disease remain largely unknown. Here, we comprehensively map complex assemblies on chromatin and find that ncBAF uniquely localizes to CTCF sites and promoters. We identified ncBAF subunits as major synthetic lethalities specific to human synovial sarcoma and malignant rhabdoid tumor, which share in common cBAF complex perturbation. Chemical and biological depletion of the BRD9 subunit of ncBAF rapidly attenuates SS and MRT cell proliferation. Notably, in cBAF-perturbed cancers, ncBAF complexes retain localization to CTCF sites and promoters, and maintain gene expression at retained mSWI/SNF sites to support cell proliferation in a manner distinct from fusion oncoprotein-mediated targeting. Taken together, these findings unmask the unique targeting and function of ncBAF complexes and present new cancer-specific therapeutic targets.
