Project description:The transcriptional regulator peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma coactivator 1A (PGC-1α), encoded by PPARGC1A, has been linked to neurodegenerative diseases. Recently discovered CNS-specific PPARGC1A transcripts are initiated far upstream of the reference promoter, spliced to exon 2 of the reference gene, and are more abundant than reference gene transcripts in post-mortem human brain samples. The proteins translated from the CNS and reference transcripts differ only at their N-terminal regions. To dissect functional differences between CNS-specific isoforms and reference proteins, we used clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats transcriptional activation (CRISPRa) for selective endogenous activation of the CNS or the reference promoters in SH-SY5Y cells. Expression and/or exon usage of the targets was ascertained by RNA sequencing. Compared to controls, more differentially expressed genes were observed after activation of the CNS than the reference gene promoter, while the magnitude of alternative exon usage was comparable between activation of the two promoters. Promoter- selective associations were observed with canonical signaling pathways, mitochondrial and nervous system functions and neurological diseases. The distinct N-terminal as well as the shared downstream regions of PGC-1α isoforms affect the exon usage of numerous genes. Furthermore, associations of risk genes of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and Parkinson’s disease were noted with differentially expressed genes resulting from the activation of the CNS and reference gene promoter, respectively. Thus, CNS-specific isoforms markedly amplify the biological functions of PPARGC1A and CNS-specific isoforms and reference proteins have common, complementary and selective functions relevant for neurodegenerative diseases.

Project description:Sheep scrapie is a transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE), which are invariably fatal neurodegenerative diseases of the central nervous system (CNS). Accumulation of the misfolded prion protein, PrPSc in the CNS results in progressive neurodegenerative disease. Susceptible VRQ homozygous New Zealand Cheviot sheep were infected with SSBP/1 scrapie by inoculation in the drainage area of the prescapular lymph nodes. PrPSc was consistently detected by immunohistology in the CNS at 125 days post infection (dpi). This study compares the genes and physiological pathways that are affected by the progression of TSE disease in the CNS, focusing on time points immediately before (75dpi) and at the time point when PrPSc is consistently detected in the CNS (125 dpi).

Project description:Sheep scrapie is a transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE), which are invariably fatalM- neurodegenerative diseases of the central nervous system (CNS). Accumulation of the misfolded prion protein, PrPSc in the CNS results in progressive neurodegenerative disease. Susceptible VRQ homozygous New Zealand Cheviot sheep were infected with standard scrapie sheep prion (SSBP/1) scrapie by inoculation in the drainage area of the prescapular lymph nodes. PrPSc was consistently detected by immunohistology in the CNS at XX days post infection (dpi). This study compares the genes and physiological pathways that are affected by the progression of TSE disease in the CNS, focusing on time points immediately before (XX dpi) and after (XX dpi) the detection of disease-associated PrPSc.

Project description:The central nervous system (CNS), despite the presence of strategically positioned anatomical barriers designed to protect it, is not entirely isolated from the immune system1,2. In fact, it remains physically connected to and can be influenced by the peripheral immune system. How the CNS retains such responsiveness while maintaining an immunologically unique status remains an outstanding conundrum. In searching for molecular cues that derive from the CNS and allow its direct communication with the immune system, we discovered a repertoire of CNS-derived endogenous regulatory self-peptides presented on major histocompatibility complex (MHC) II molecules at the CNS borders. During homeostasis, a preponderance of these regulatory self-peptides were found to be bound to MHC II molecules throughout the path of lymphatic drainage from the brain to its surrounding meninges and its draining cervical lymph nodes. With neuroinflammatory disease, however, the presentation of regulatory self-peptides diminished. Upon boosting the presentation of these regulatory self-peptides, a population of suppressor CD4+ T cells could be expanded, controlling CNS autoimmunity in a CTLA-4 and TGF dependent manner. This unexpected discovery of CNS-derived autoimmune self-peptides may be the molecular key adapting the CNS to maintain continuous dialogue with the immune system while balancing overt autoreactivity. This sheds new light on how we conceptually think about and therapeutically target neuroinflammatory and neurodegenerative diseases.

Project description:To examine changes in gene expression that might occur in CNS glial cells in response to the secreted products of immune cells, we used gene array analysis to assess the early effects of different cytokine mixtures on rat mixed CNS glia in culture. We compared effects at 6 hours of cytokines typical of Th1 and Th2 lymphocytes, and monocyte marophages (M/M).. We found unique patterns of changes in gene expression for each of the three cytokine mixtures, including changes in immune-related molecules, neurotrophins, growth factors, proteins involved in axon/glial interactions, ion channels, neurotransmitters, mitochondrial function and apoptosis. These changes may have relevance in neuroprotective or damaging mechanisms in neurodegenerative diseases such as multiple sclerosis, specifically with regard to formation, repair or inhibition of lesion formation. Experiment Overall Design: Mixed CNS glia cultures from newborn rat brain were treated for 6 hours with cytokine mixtures representative of Th1, Th2 or monocyte/macrophage cytokines

Project description:The central nervous system (CNS), despite the presence of strategically positioned anatomical barriers designed to protect it, is not entirely isolated from the immune system. In fact, it remains physically connected to and can be influenced by the peripheral immune system. How the CNS retains such responsiveness while maintaining “immune privilege” remains an outstanding conundrum. In searching for molecular cues that derive from the CNS and allow its direct communication with the immune system, we discovered a repertoire of CNS-derived endogenous guardian peptides presented on major histocompatibility complex (MHC) II molecules at the CNS borders. During homeostasis, a preponderance of these guardian peptides were found to be bound to MHC II molecules throughout the path of lymphatic drainage from the brain to its surrounding meninges and its draining cervical lymph nodes. With neuroinflammatory disease, however, the presentation of guardian peptides was diminished. Fascinatingly, boosting the presence of these guardian peptides reinforced a population of suppressor CD4+ T cells and significantly reduced CNS autoimmune disease. This unexpected discovery of CNS-derived autoimmune guardian peptides may be the molecular key adapting the CNS to receive information and to maintain continuous dialogue with the immune system while balancing overt autoreactivity. This sheds new light on how we conceptually think about and therapeutically target neuroinflammatory and neurodegenerative diseases.
