Project description:Loss of the nuclear RNA binding protein TAR DNA binding protein-43 (TDP-43) into cytoplasmic aggregates is the strongest correlate to neurodegeneration in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and frontotemporal degeneration. The molecular changes associated with the loss of nuclear TDP-43 in human tissues are not entirely known. Using a novel subcellular fractionation and fluorescent activated cell sorting method to enrich for diseased neuronal nuclei without TDP-43 from post-mortem FTD-ALS human brain, we characterized the effects of TDP-43 loss on the transcriptome and chromatin accessibility. Nuclear TDP-43 loss is associated with gene expression changes that affect RNA processing, nucleocytoplasmic transport, histone processing and DNA damage. Loss of nuclear TDP-43 was also associated with chromatin decondensation around long interspersed nuclear elements (LINEs) and increased LINE1 DNA content. Moreover, loss of TDP-43 leads to increased retrotransposition that can be inhibited with antiretroviral drugs, suggesting that TDP-43 neuropathology is associated with altered chromatin structure including decondensation of LINEs.

Project description:Cytoplasmic aggregation and nuclear depletion of TDP-43 are hallmarks of several age-related neurodegenerative disorders. Yet, recapitulating both features in cellular systems has been a major challenge. Here, we produced amyloid-like fibrils from the recombinant low-complexity-domain of TDP-43, and demonstrate that sonicated fibrils trigger TDP-43 pathology in human cell lines and iPSC-derived neurons. Fibril-induced cytoplasmic TDP-43 inclusions acquire distinct biophysical properties, recapitulate pathological hallmarks such as phosphorylation, ubiquitin- and p62-accumulation, and recruit nuclear endogenous TDP-43 leading to nuclear-loss-of-function-driven disease-specific cryptic splicing defects. Cytoplasmic TDP-43 aggregates exhibit, with time, distinct heterogeneous morphologies as in patients including compacted, filamentous or fragmented, through the activation of cellular protein clearance pathways. Cell-specific progressive toxicity is provoked by seeded TDP-43 pathology in human neurons. These findings identify templated aggregation of TDP-43 as a key mechanism driving both cytoplasmic gain- and nuclear-loss-of-function, offering a valuable approach to identify modifiers of sporadic TDP-43 proteinopathies.

Project description:Both gain of toxicity and loss of normal function of the RNA-binding protein TDP-43 contribute to neurodegeneration in ALS and FTD, but their mechanistic connection remains unclear. Increasing evidence suggests that TDP-43 aggregates act as self-templating seeds, propagating pathology through the central nervous system via a prion-like cascade. We developed a robust TDP-43 seeding platform for quantitative, high-throughput assessment of TDP-43 aggregate uptake, cell-to-cell spreading and direct quantification of TDP-43 nuclear function within living cells, while they progress towards pathology. We show that both patient-derived and recombinant TDP-43 pathological aggregates are abundantly internalized in human neuron-like cells, efficiently recruit endogenous TDP-43 and form cytoplasmic inclusions reminiscent of ALS/FTD pathology. These neoaggregates progressively drive the nuclear egress of TDP-43 leading to its loss of function. The scope of this project is to identify the signatures involved in the progressive egress of TDP-43 from the nucleus to the cytoplasm.

Project description:In frontotemporal dementia and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, the RNA-binding protein TDP-43 is depleted from the nucleus. TDP-43 loss leads to cryptic exon inclusion but a role in other RNA processing events remains unresolved. Here, we show that loss of TDP-43 causes widespread changes in alternative polyadenylation, impacting expression of disease-relevant genes (e.g., ELP1, NEFL, and TMEM106B), providing evidence that alternative polyadenylation is a new facet to TDP-43 pathology.

Project description:Aims: Loss of nuclear TDP-43 characterises sporadic and most familial forms of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). TDP-43 (encoded by TARDBP) has multiple roles in RNA processing. We aimed to determine whether 1) RNA splicing dysregulation is present in lower motor neurons in ALS and in a motor neuron-like cell model, and 2) TARDBP mutations (mtTARDBP) are associated with aberrant RNA splicing using patient-derived fibroblasts. Methods: Affymetrix exon arrays were used to study mRNA expression and splicing in lower motor neurons obtained by laser capture microdissection of autopsy tissue from individuals with sporadic ALS and TDP-43 proteinopathy. Findings were confirmed by qRT-PCR and in NSC34 motor neuronal cells following shRNA-mediated TDP-43 depletion. Exon arrays and immunohistochemistry were used to study mRNA splicing and TDP-43 expression in fibroblasts from patients with mtTARDBP-associated, sporadic and mutant SOD1-associated ALS. Results: We found altered expression of spliceosome components in motor neurons and widespread aberrations of mRNA splicing that specifically affected genes involved in ribonucleotide binding. This was confirmed in TDP-43 depleted NSC34 cells. Fibroblasts with mtTARDBP showed loss of nuclear TDP-43 protein and demonstrated similar changes in splicing and gene expression, that were not present in fibroblasts from patients with sporadic or SOD1-related ALS. Conclusion: Loss of nuclear TDP-43 is associated with RNA processing abnormalities in ALS motor neurons, patient-derived cells with mtTARDBP, and following artificial TDP-43 depletion, suggesting that splicing dysregulation directly contributes to disease pathogenesis. Key functional pathways affected include those central to RNA metabolism. RNA was extracted from NSC34 motor neuronal cells depleted of TDP-43 by shRNA (n=4), treated with control shGFP (n=4), and treated with control shLuciferase (n=3).
