Project description:In multiple sclerosis (MS), invasion of the central nervous system by peripheral immune cells, activation of resident microglia and astrocytes, and demyelination occur as a cascade of events that trigger neuronal damage and death. The molecular signals in neurons that activate damage in response to the complex immune environment have not been fully characterized. Retinal ganglion cell neurons (RGCs) of the central nervous system (CNS) undergo axonal injury and cell death in MS and this is recapitulated in the experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) mouse model of MS. To profile the molecular landscape of pathologically inflamed neurons, we isolated RGCs from mice that were subjected to the EAE protocol and performed RNA-sequencing and ATAC-sequencing analysis. Pathway analysis of the RNA-sequencing data revealed that RGCs exhibited a molecular signature reminiscent of aged neurons with features of senescence. Pathway level analysis of single-nucleus RNA-sequencing analysis of human MS neurons also demonstrated a similar senescence-like phenotype. Immunofluorescence analyses confirmed alterations to various markers of senescence in RGCs in EAE mice, including alterations to the nuclear envelope, changes to chromatin marks, and accumulation of DNA damage. Transduction of RGCs with an Oct4-Sox2-Klf4 transgene to rejuvenate neurons to a younger epigenetic and transcriptomic state in the EAE model was sufficient to increase survival of RGCs. Together, this work reveals a novel senescent like phenotype in neurons in a model of pathological inflammation and in neurons from MS patients. Rejuvenation of the aged transcriptome improves visual acuity and neuronal survival in the EAE model supporting the notion that anti-aging therapies and/or senotherapeutic agents may directly target neurons for neuroprotection in autoimmune disorders.

Project description:Engrailed homeoproteins are expressed in adult dopaminergic neurons of the substantia nigra. In Engrailed1 heterozygous mice, these neurons start dying at 6 weeks, are more sensitive to oxidative stress and progressively develop traits similar to those observed following an acute and strong oxidative stress inflected to wild-type neurons. These changes include DNA strand breaks and the modification (intensity and distribution) of several nuclear and nucleolar heterochromatin marks. Engrailed1 and Engrailed2 are biochemically equivalent transducing proteins previously used to antagonize dopaminergic neuron death in Engrailed heterozygous mice and in mouse models of Parkinson disease. Accordingly, we show that, following an acute oxidative stress, a single Engrailed2 injection restores all nuclear and nucleolar heterochromatin marks, decreases the number of DNA strand breaks and protects dopaminergic neurons against apoptosis. RNA-seq data for differentially expressed genes in the SNpc of En1+/- mice, En2 infused mice and 6-OHDA/En2 injection experiments.

Project description:Aging is associated with a progressive decline in cellular function. To reset the aged cellular phenotype, various reprogramming approaches, including mechanical routes, have been proposed. However, the epigenetic mechanisms underlying cellular rejuvenation are poorly understood. We studied the transcriptional changes in young, aged and mechanically rejuvenated fibroblasts using RNA-seq. The mechanically rejuvenated aged fibroblasts, that had reset their transcription to a younger cell state. In addition, the rejuvenated cells contractile properties were maintained over multiple cell passages. Taken together, our results provide a multi-scale characterization of the chromatin reorganization that accompanies cellular aging and rejuvenation.

Project description:The host innate immune response is the first line of defense against pathogens and is orchestrated by the concerted expression of genes induced by microbial stimuli. Deregulated expression of these genes is linked to the initiation and progression of numerous diseases associated with exacerbated inflammation. Here, we identify Topoisomerase 1 (Top1) as a critical positive regulator of RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) transcriptional activity at pathogen-induced genes. Notably, depletion or chemical inhibition of Top1 suppresses the host response against replicating Influenza and Ebola viruses as well as bacterial products. As a result, therapeutic pharmacological inhibition of Top1 protects mice from death in experimental models of chemical- and pathogen-induced lethal inflammation. Our results indicate that Top1 inhibition could be used as therapy against life threatening infections characterized by an acutely exacerbated immune response.
