Comprehensive proteomic analysis of JC polyomavirus-infected human astrocytes and their extracellular vesicles

ABSTRACT: JC polyomavirus (JCPyV) is the causative agent of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML), a devastating demyelinating disease of the central nervous system that results in the widespread formation of lesions across the brain parenchyma. The virus is opportunistic and remains in a benign state in the kidneys and lymphoid organs of more than half of the global human adult population. However, in rare cases of severe or selective immune suppression, JCPyV can establish a lytic infection of glial cells in the brain. While PML has traditionally been characterized as a lytic infection of oligodendrocytes, more recent findings suggest an important role for astrocytes during the initial stages of disease. Because of the exceptional species and tissue specificity of the virus, appropriate models of JCPyV infection in the brain are lacking, thus hampering progress towards the development of novel antiviral strategies and biomarkers of disease activity. Here, using iPSC-derived astrocytes infected with JCPyV and analyzed by LC-MS/MS, we show that the virus strongly influences the cell biology, inducing an unique proteomic signature that sharply contrasts with mock-infected cells.

Towards the aim of biomarker development extracellular vesicles (EVs) were isolated from JCPyV-infected and mock-infected human iPSC-derived astrocytes and analyzed by LC-MS/MS. As a inflammatory control, EVs were also isolated from cytokine-stimulated iPSC-derived astrocytes. We demonstrate that the proteomic signature associated with EVs from JCPyV-infected astrocytes reflect what was observed on a cellular level for infected astrocytes while being strikingly different from that of EVs generated under inflammatory conditions.

Differentiation of human fetal multipotential neural progenitor cells to astrocytes reveals susceptibility factors for JC Virus

Project description:Viral infections of the CNS are of increasing concern, especially among immunocompromised populations. Rodent models are often inappropriate for studies of CNS infection, as many viruses, including JC Virus (JCV) and HIV, cannot replicate in rodent cells. Consequently, human fetal brain-derived multipotential CNS progenitor cells (NPCs) that can be differentiated into neurons, oligodendrocytes, or astrocytes, have served as a model for CNS studies. NPCs can be non-productively infected by JCV, while infection of progenitor-derived astrocytes (PDAs) is robust. We profiled cellular gene expression at multiple times during differentiation of NPCs to PDAs. Several activated transcription factors show commonality between cells of the brain in which JCV replicates and lymphocytes in which JCV is likely latent. Bioinformatic analysis determined transcription factors that may influence the favorable transcriptional environment for JCV in PDAs. This study attempts to provide a framework for understanding the functional transcriptional profile necessary for productive JCV infection. 19 Human samples: 4 Human Fetal Brain NPC 0h, 4 Human Fetal Brain NPC in Serum 1h, 4 Human Fetal Brain NPC in Serum 1d, 4 Human Fetal Brain NPC in Serum 7d, 3 Human Fetal Brain NPC in Serum 30d.

Neurofibromatosis type 1-dependent alterations in mouse microglia function are not cell-intrinsic

Project description:We previously discovered a sex-by-genotype defect in microglia function using a germline heterozygous knockout mouse model of Neurofibromatosis type 1 (Nf1+/- mice), in which only microglia from male Nf1+/- mice exhibited defects in purinergic signaling. Herein, we leveraged an unbiased proteomic approach to demonstrate that male, but not female, heterozygous Nf1+/- microglia exhibit differences in protein expression, which largely reflect pathways involved cytoskeletal organization. In keeping with potential defects in cytoskeletal function, only male Nf1+/- microglia had reduced process arborization and surveillance capacity. Next, to determine whether these microglial defects were cell autonomous or reflected adaptive responses to Nf1 heterozygosity in other cells in the brain, we generated conditional microglia Nf1-mutant knockout mice by intercrossing Nf1flox/flox with Cx3cr1-CreER mice (Nf1flox/wt; Cx3cr1-CreER mice, Nf1MG+/- mice). Surprisingly, neither male nor female Nf1MG+/- mouse microglia had impaired process arborization or surveillance capacity. In contrast, when Nf1 heterozygosity was generated in neurons, astrocytes and oligodendrocytes by intercrossing Nf1flox/flox with hGFAP-Cre mice (Nf1flox/wt; hGFAP-Cre mice, Nf1GFAP+/- mice), the microglia defects found in Nf1+/- mice were recapitulated. Collectively, these data reveal that Nf1+/- sexually dimorphic microglia abnormalities are likely not cell-intrinsic properties, but rather reflect a response to Nf1 heterozygosity in other brain cells.

Molecular Signatures Associated with ZIKV Exposure in Human Cortical Neural Progenitors and Astrocytes

Project description:Zika virus (ZIKV) infection causes microcephaly and has been linked to other brain abnormalities. How ZIKV impairs brain development and function remains elusive. Here we systematically profiled transcriptomes of human neural progenitor cells (hNPCs) and astrocytes exposed to Asian ZIKVC, African ZIKVM, and Dengue virus (DENV). DENV causes distinct gene expression changes; and ZIKV has a broader impact on the expression of gene involved in DNA replication and repair. While overall expression profiles are similar, ZIKVC, but not ZIKVM, induces upregulation of viral response genes. Upon ZIKV infection, astrocytes exhibit more prominent transcriptome changes than hNPCs, particularly enriching genes related to inflammatory response and cytokine production pathways. Our analyses reveal cell-type- and strain-specific molecular signatures associated with ZIKV infection, and identify astrocytes as a major direct target of ZIKV. Further investigation of ZIKV-host interactions based our transcriptomic datasets may help to illuminate neural virulence determinants of ZIKV in patients.

SORL1 regulates APOE and CLU levels in human neurons

Project description:SORL1 is implicated in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) through genetic studies. To interrogate the role(s) of SORL1 in human brain cells, SORL1 null iPSCs are differentiated to neuron, astrocyte, microglial, and endothelial cell fates. Loss of SORL1 leads to alterations in both overlapping and distinct pathways across cell types, with the greatest effects in neurons and astrocytes. SORL1 loss induces a neuron-specific reduction in APOE and CLU and altered lipid profiles. Enhancement of retromer-mediated trafficking rescues tau phenotypes observed in SORL1 null neurons but does not rescue APOE levels. Pathway analyses implicate TGF-β/SMAD signaling in SORL1 function, and modulating SMAD signaling in neurons alters APOE RNA levels in a SORL1-dependent manner. Analyses of iPSCs derived from a large cohort reveal a neuron-specific association between SORL1, APOE, and CLU levels, a finding validated in post-mortem brain. These studies provide a mechanistic link between strong genetic risk factors for AD.

Characterization of detergent insoluble proteome in chronic traumatic encephalopathy

Project description:Proteomic sequencing of postmortem human brain can identify dysfunctional proteins that contribute to neurodegenerative disorders like Alzheimer’s disease and frontotemporal dementia. Similar studies in chronic traumatic encephalopathy are limited, but may provide important new insights into this disorder. Given our previous success with identifying pathology associated proteins, we performed proteomic sequencing of detergent insoluble brain homogenates from frontal cortex of deceased subjects with CTE covering a range of CTE pathologic stages. We compared the insoluble proteome of CTE brain to control and AD brains to identify differentially expressed proteins. We identified over 4000 proteins in CTE brains, including significant enrichment of the microtubule associated protein tau. We also found enrichment and pathologic aggregation of RNA processing factors as seen previously in AD, supporting the previously recognized overlap between AD and CTE. In addition to these similarities, we identified CTE-specific enrichment of a number of proteins which increase with increasing severity of CTE pathology. NADPH dehydrogenase quinone 1 (NQO1) was one of the proteins which showed significant enrichment in CTE and also correlated with increasing CTE stage. NQO1 demonstrated neuropathologic correlation with hyperphosphorylated tau in glial cells, mainly astrocytes. These results demonstrate that quantitative proteomic sequencing of CTE postmortem human brain can identify disease relevant findings and novel cellular pathways involved in CTE pathogenesis.

Changes in cellular transcriptome in response to inhibitors of Epstein-Barr virus

Project description:Burkitt lymphoma cells can be latently infected with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). The virus may be activated into its lytic cycle by small molecules, such as sodium butyrate. Other molecules, such as valproate and valpromide, block viral lytic reactivation. These pharmacological agents alter the cellular physiology that controls viral lytic gene expression. Changes in the cellular transcription were measured in response to one activator and two inhibitors of the Epstein-Barr virus lytic cycle in order to identify cellular genes that are potential regulators of the viral life cycle.
