Project description:Neurobiological consequences of traumatic brain injury (TBI) result from a complex interplay of secondary injury responses and sequela that mediates chronic disability. Endothelial cells are important regulators of the cerebrovascular response to TBI. Our work demonstrates that genetic deletion of endothelial cell (EC)-specific EPH receptor A4 (EphA4) using conditional EphA4f/f/Tie2-Cre and EphA4f/f/VE-Cadherin-CreERT2 knockout (KO) mice, promotes blood-brain barrier (BBB) integrity and tissue protection, which correlates with improved motor function and cerebral blood flow recovery following controlled cortical impact (CCI) injury. scRNAseq of capillary-derived KO ECs showed increased differential gene expression of BBB-related junctional and actin cytoskeletal regulators, namely, A-kinase anchor protein 12, Akap12, whose presence at Tie2 clustering domains is enhanced in KO microvessels. Transcript and protein analysis of CCI-injured whole cortical tissue or cortical-derived ECs suggests EphA4 limits the expression of Cldn5, Akt, and Akap12 and promotes Ang2. Blocking the Tie2 receptor using sTie2-Fc, attenuated BBB and tissue protection and reversed Akap12 mRNA and protein levels in KO compared to WT cortical-derived ECs. Conversely, direct stimulation of Tie2 using Vasculotide, an angiopoietin-1 memetic peptide, phenocopied the neuroprotection. Finally, we report a noteworthy rise in soluble Ang2 in the sera of individuals with acute TBI, highlighting its promising role as a vascular biomarker for early detection of BBB disruption. Overall, we describe a novel contribution of the axon guidance molecule, EphA4, in mediating TBI microvascular dysfunction through negative regulation of Tie2/Akap12 signaling.

Project description:Dysregulation of lipid homeostasis is a feature of alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD). A-kinase anchoring protein 12 (AKAP12) is a scaffolding partner of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase, PKA that controls its spatiotemporal localization. Activation of PKA by cAMP inhibits lipogenesis and facilitates fatty acid oxidation (FAO). We examined how AKAP12’ could regulate alcohol-associated steatosis. Alcohol exposure reduced AKAP12’s interaction with PKA and suppressed PKA activation. Forced expression of AKAP12 overcame the suppression of PKA activity in human hepatocytes and in livers of mice exposed to alcohol. This led to a decrease in hepatic steatosis. Disrupting the scaffold of AKAP12 and PKA by CRISPR editing increased steatosis and inflammation. RNA sequencing analysis of hepatocytes from alchol fed mice and normal mice demonstrated key lipogenic and inflammatory pathways regulated by AKAP12 overexpression. RNA sequencing of total liver from mice with AKAP12-PKA binding site CRISPR editing or AKAP12 overexpression confirmed regulation of lipogenic and inflammatory pathways by AKAP12

Project description:This study investigates the role of AKAP12 in endothelial cell motility with a specific focus on AKAP12 variants, AKAP12v1 and AKAP12v2. Previous work has shown that AKAP12, a multivalent A-kinase anchoring protein that binds to PKA and several other proteins regulating protein phosphorylation, is expressed at low levels in most endothelia in vivo but is expressed at higher levels in cells in vitro. Here, we found that AKAP12 expression in endothelial cell (HUVEC) cultures was cell density-dependent, with the expression being highest in subconfluent cultures and lowest in confluent cultures. AKAP12 expression was also elevated in cells at the wound edge of wounded endothelial cell monolayers. Knockdown of variants 1 and 2 inhibited cell migration. However, CRISPR/Cas9 knockout of AKAP12v1 enhanced migration, indicating that the absence of this variant and the presence of AKAP12v2 likely alters the signaling events controlling cell motility. Further analysis using bulk RNA sequencing revealed that the loss of AKAP12v1 affected genes associated with cell migration and intercellular junctions. We propose that AKAP12v1 and AKAP12v2 play distinct yet complementary roles in endothelial cell migration and likely work together in controlling the signaling events associated with vascular repair and development.

Project description:To identify the gene expressing profiles of TIE2 expressing Monocytes(TEMs), we have employed the Agilent lncRNA Gene Expression 4Ã180K(Design ID:042818) microarray. Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) in venous blood from healthy donors were isolated by Lymphoprep (Axis-Shield, Norway). Human monocytes in PBMCs, identified as cells that expressed CD14, were enriched by positive immunomagnetic selection using anti-CD14 MicroBeads (Miltenyi, Germany). TEMs (TIE2+CD14+) and TIE2-Monocytes (Tie2-CD14+) were then isolated by FACS-sorting (Aria II, BD Biosciences) using FITC-conjugated anti-CD14 (BD Biosciences, USA) and APC-conjugated anti-TIE2 (R&D System, USA) antibodies.Three TEMs samples together with their paried TIE2-Monocytes were detected.Expressions of sixteen genes (CDKN1A, FDXR, SESN1, BBC3 and PHPT1) from this signature was quantified in the same RNA samples by real-time PCR, confirming low variability between donors as well as the predicted radiation response pattern. The gene expressions of three independent paried TEMs and TIE2- Monocytes samples from different donors were measured.
