Project description:The craniofacial developmental disorder Burn-McKeown Syndrome (BMKS) is caused by biallelic variants in the pre-messenger RNA splicing factor gene TXNL4A/DIB1. The majority of affected individuals with BMKS have a 34 base pair deletion in the promoter region of one allele of TXNL4A combined with a loss-of-function variant on the other allele, resulting in reduced TXNL4A expression. However, it is unclear how reduced expression of this ubiquitously expressed spliceosome protein results in craniofacial defects during development. Here we reprogrammed peripheral mononuclear blood cells from a BMKS patient and her unaffected mother into induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and differentiated the iPSCs into induced neural crest cells (iNCCs), the key cell type required for correct craniofacial development. BMKS patient-derived iPSCs proliferated more slowly than both mother- and unrelated control-derived iPSCs, and RNA-Seq analysis revealed significant differences in gene expression and alternative splicing. Patient iPSCs displayed defective differentiation into iNCCs compared to maternal and unrelated control iPSCs, in particular a delay in undergoing an epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT). RNA-Seq analysis of differentiated iNCCs revealed widespread gene expression changes and mis-splicing in genes relevant to craniofacial and embryonic development that highlight a dampened response to WNT signalling, the key pathway activated during iNCC differentiation. Furthermore, we identified the mis-splicing of TCF7L2 exon 4, a key gene in the WNT pathway, as a potential cause of the downregulated WNT response in patient cells. Additionally, mis-spliced genes shared common physical properties such as length, splice site strengths and sequence motifs, suggesting that splicing of particular subsets of genes is particularly sensitive to changes in TXNL4A expression. Together, these data provide the first insight into how reduced TXNL4A expression in BMKS patients might compromise splicing and NCC function, resulting in defective craniofacial development in the embryo.

Project description:Intellectual disability (ID) is a clinically important disease and a most prevalent neurodevelopmental disorder. The etiology and pathogenesis of ID are poorly recognized. Exome sequencing revealed a homozygous missense mutation in the POLR3B gene in a consanguineous family with three Intellectual disability with craniofacal anomalies patients. POLR3B gene encoding the second largest subunit of RNA polymerase III. To explore how genetic variants alter cell expression in ID patients, RNA sequencing on blood samples was performed and to obtain insights into the biological pathways influenced by POLR3B mutation, we applied our RNA-Seq data to several gene ontology programs such as ToppGene, Enrichr, KEGG. We detected a significant decrease expression of several spliceosomal RNAs, ribosomal proteins and transcription factors in our ID patients. We hypothesize that POLR3B mutation dysregulates the expression of some important transcription factors, ribosomal and spliceosomal genes and impairments in protein synthesis and splicing mediated in part by transcription factors such as FOXC2, GATA1, .. contribute to impaired neuronal function and concurrence of intellectual disability and craniofacial anomalies in our patients. Our study highlights the emerging role of spliceosome and ribosomal proteins in intellectual disability.

Project description:Animal experiments were performed with male Sprague-Dawley rats (Charles River Laboratories, Boston, MA) weighing 150 ? 200 grams. All experimental protocols used in this study were approved by the Subcommittee on Research Animal Care, Massachusetts General Hospital. Rats were individually housed in a temperature-controlled (25oC) and light-controlled room (12h light-dark cycle) and allowed to adjust to their new surroundings for at least 5 days prior to the experiment. Water and rat chow were provided ad libitum to the animals. On the day of the treatment, the animals were randomly divided into two groups, burned and sham-burned. The burn injury consisted of a full-skin-thickness scald burn of the dorsum, calculated to be ~ 20% of the rat?s total body surface area (TBSA), induced by immersing the designated area in boiling water for 10 s (45). Rats were resuscitated with an intra-peritoneal injection of sterile saline solution (1.5 mL/Kg body weight/% TBSA) immediately after burn. The mortality rate of this treatment was negligible. At each time point (1, 2, 4, and 7d), three animals belonging to each group were sacrificed, the liver and serum collected, and stored at ?80oC after being inflicted with 20% TBSA burn injury. Sham-burn rats (n=3) considered as the control were treated identically except that they were immersed into a 37oC water bath and immediately sacrificed to collect the livers.

Project description:Burn injury remains a major clinical challenge to both survival and to quality of life. Its progressive, aberrant inflammation underlies the lethal dysfunction of various organs and the pain it induces is excruciating and notoriously difficult to manage. While it is known that burn injury’s complex local and disseminating pathology is orchestrated from the burned tissue, few studies have sought to characterise the local signalling environment. An enhanced understanding of the local and acutely temporally-dynamic processes defining burn injury and its progression is required for the development of novel therapeutic interventions. Microdialysis was used as an interstitial sampling technique, conducted over three hours post-burn. Samples were analysed by metabolomics and a multiplex cytokine immunoassay. Next-Generation sequencing libraries of the burn and control microdialysis sites were prepared to measure transcriptional changes potentially underlying the interstitial profile characterising burn injury.

Project description:Burn wound blister fluid is a valuable matrix for understanding the biological pathways associated with burn injury. In this study, 152 blister fluid samples collected from paediatric burn wounds at two different hospitals were analysed using mass spectrometry proteomic techniques. The protein abundance profile at different days post-burn indicated that there were more proteins associated with cellular damage/repair in the first 24 hours, whereas after this point there were more proteins associated with antimicrobial defence and inflammation. The inflammatory proteins persisted at a high level in the blister fluid for more than 7 days. This may indicate that removal of burn blisters prior to two days post-burn is optimal to prevent excessive or prolonged inflammation in the wound environment. Additionally, many proteins associated with the neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) pathway were increased post-burn, further implicating NETs in the post-burn inflammatory response. NET inhibitors may therefore be a potential treatment to reduce post-burn inflammation and coagulation pathology and enhance burn wound healing outcomes.
