Project description:Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome (RSTS) is a rare multisystem developmental disorder with moderate to severe intellectual disability caused by heterozygous mutations of either CREBBP or EP300 genes encoding CBP/p300 chromatin modifiers. We explored the gene programs and processes underlying the morphological and functional alterations shown by iPSC-derived neurons modeling RSTS to bridge the molecular changes resulting from defective CBP/p300 to cognitive impairment. By global transcriptome analysis we compared the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) marking the transition from iPSC-derived neural progenitors to cortical neurons (iNeurons) of five RSTS patients carrying private CREBBP/EP300 mutations manifesting differently graded neurocognitive signs with those of four healthy controls. Our data shows a defective and altered neuroprogenitor to neuron transcriptional program in the cells from RSTS patients as compared to controls. First, transcriptional regulation is weaker in RSTS as less genes than in controls are modulated, including genes of key processes of mature functional neurons, such as those involved in synaptic integration. Second, regulation is subverted as genes acting at pre-terminal stages of neural differentiation in cell polarity and adhesive functions (members of the cadherin family) and axon extension/guidance (members of the semaphorins and SLIT receptors families) are improperly upregulated. Impairment or delay of RSTS neuronal differentiation program is also evidenced by decreased modulation of the overall number of neural differentiation markers, significantly impacting the initial and final stages of the differentiation cascade. Last, extensive downregulation of genes for RNA/DNA metabolic processes confirms that RSTS is a global transcription disorder, consistent with a syndrome driven by chromatin dysregulation. Interestingly, the overall transcriptome changes validate the morphological and functional alterations previously appointed as biomarkers of RSTS iNeurons, accounting for patients’ cognitive deficit. The impact of RSTS transcriptome may go beyond RSTS as cross-comparison of dysregulated genes with other modeled neurodevelopmental disorders could enhance to unveil the core genes of cognitive impairment.

Project description:Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome (RTS) is a rare and severe genetic developmental disorder characterized by multiple congenital anomalies and intellectual disability. CREBBP and EP300, the two genes known to cause RTS encode transcriptional coactivators with a catalytic lysine acetyltransferase (KAT) activity. Loss of CBP or p300 function results in a deficit in protein acetylation, in particular at histones. In RTS, nothing is known on the consequences of the loss of histone acetylation on the transcriptomic profiles during neuronal differentiation. To address this question, we differentiated induced pluripotent stem cells from RTS patients carrying a recurrent CREBBP mutation that inactivates the KAT domain into cortical and pyramidal neurons. By comparing their acetylome and their transcriptome at different neuronal differentiation timepoints, we identified 25 specific acetylated histone residues altered in RTS. We also identified the transition between neural progenitors and immature neurons as a critical step of the differentiation process, with a delayed neuronal maturation in RTS.

First, transcriptional regulation is weaker in RSTS as less genes than in controls are modulated, including genes of key processes of mature functional neurons, such as those for voltage-gated channels and neurotransmitters and their receptors. Second, regulation is subverted as genes acting at pre-terminal stages of neural differentiation in cell polarity and adhesive functions (members of the cadherin family) and axon extension/guidance (members of the semaphorins and SLIT receptors families) are improperly upregulated. Impairment or delay of RSTS neuronal differentiation program is also evidenced by decreased modulation of the overall number of neural differentiation markers, significantly impacting the initial and final stages of the differentiation cascade. Last, extensive downregulation of genes for RNA/DNA metabolic processes confirms that RSTS is a global transcription disorder, consistent with a syndrome driven by chromatin dysregulation. Interestingly, the morphological and functional alterations we have previously appointed as biomarkers of RSTS iNeurons provide functional support to the herein designed transcriptome profile pointing to key dysregulated neuronal genes as main contributors to patients' cognitive deficit. The impact of RSTS transcriptome may go beyond RSTS as comparison of dysregulated genes across modeled neurodevelopmental disorders could unveil convergent genes of cognitive impairment.

Project description:Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome (RSTS) is a complex autosomal-dominant disease characterized by mental and growth retardation and skeletal abnormalities. A majority of the individuals diagnosed with RSTS carry heterozygous mutation in the gene CREBBP, but a small percentage of cases are caused by mutations in EP300. To investigate the contribution of p300 to RSTS pathoetiology, we carried out a comprehensive and multidisciplinary characterization of p300+/- mice. These mice exhibited facial abnormalities and impaired growth, two traits associated to RSTS in humans. We also observed abnormal gait, reduced swimming speed, enhanced anxiety in the elevated plus maze, and mild cognitive impairment during the transfer task in the water maze. These analyses demonstratethat p300+/- mice exhibit phenotypes that are reminiscent of neurological traits observed in RSTS patients, but their comparison with previous studies on CBP deficient strains also indicate that, in agreement with the most recent findings in human patients, the activity of p300 in cognition is likely less relevant or more susceptible to compensation than the activity of CBP. To identify those genes whose expression was altered in the hippocampus of p300 deficient mutants, we performed a gene profiling analysis of hippocampal tissue using high-density oligonucleotide microarrays. Experiment Overall Design: We obtained triplicate samples containing total RNA from the hippocampi of four 3-month old females of either genotype (in total 12 p300+/- mice and 12 wild type littermates were used in the experiment).

Project description:Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome (RSTS) is a rare neurodevelopmental disorder caused by mutations in CREBBP or EP300 genes encoding CBP/p300 lysine acetyltransferases. We investigated the efficacy of the histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACi) Trichostatin A (TSA) in ameliorating morphological abnormalities of iPSC-derived young neurons from P149 and P34 CREBBP-mutated patients and hypoexcitability of mature neurons from P149. Neural progenitors from both patients' iPSC lines were cultured one week with TSA 20 nM and, only P149, for 6 weeks with TSA 0.2 nM, in parallel to neural progenitors from controls. Immunofluorescence of MAP2/TUJ1 positive cells using the Skeletonize Image J plugin evidenced that TSA partially rescued reduced nuclear area, and decreased branch length and abnormal end points number of both 45 days patients' neurons, but did not influence the diminished percentage of their neurons with respect to controls. Patch clamp recordings of TSA-treated post-mitotic P149 neurons showed complete/partial rescue of sodium/potassium currents and significant enhancement of neuron excitability compared to untreated replicas. Correction of abnormalities of P149 young neurons was also affected by valproic acid 1 mM for 72 h, with some variation, with respect to TSA, on the morphological parameter. These findings hold promise for development of an epigenetic therapy to attenuate RSTS patients cognitive impairment.

Project description:Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome (RSTS) is a rare genetic disorder in humans characterized by growth and psychomotor delay, abnormal gross anatomy, and mild to severe mental retardation (Rubinstein and Taybi, Am J Dis Child 105:588-608, 1963, Hennekam et al., Am J Med Genet Suppl 6:56-64, 1990). RSTS is caused by de novo mutations in epigenetics-associated genes, including the cAMP response element-binding protein (CREBBP), the gene-encoding protein referred to as CBP, and the EP300 gene, which encodes the p300 protein, a CBP homologue. Recent studies of the epigenetic mechanisms underlying cognitive functions in mice provide direct evidence for the involvement of nuclear factors (e.g., CBP) in the control of higher cognitive functions. In fact, a role for CBP in higher cognitive function is suggested by the finding that RSTS is caused by heterozygous mutations at the CBP locus (Petrij et al., Nature 376:348-351, 1995). CBP was demonstrated to possess an intrinsic histone acetyltransferase activity (Ogryzko et al., Cell 87:953-959, 1996) that is required for CREB-mediated gene expression (Korzus et al., Science 279:703-707, 1998). The intrinsic protein acetyltransferase activity in CBP might directly destabilize promoter-bound nucleosomes, facilitating the activation of transcription. Due to the complexity of developmental abnormalities and the possible genetic compensation associated with this congenital disorder, however, it is difficult to establish a direct role for CBP in cognitive function in the adult brain. Although aspects of the clinical presentation in RSTS cases have been extensively studied, a spectrum of symptoms found in RSTS patients can be accessed only after birth, and, thus, prenatal genetic tests for this extremely rare genetic disorder are seldom considered. Even though there has been intensive research on the genetic and epigenetic function of the CREBBP gene in rodents, the etiology of this devastating congenital human disorder is largely unknown.
