Project description:Epilepsy is considered to result from an imbalance between excitation and inhibition of the central nervous system. Pathogenic mutations in the methyl-CpG binding domain protein 5 gene (MBD5) are known to cause epilepsy. However, the function and mechanism of MBD5 in epilepsy remain elusive. Here, we found that MBD5 was mainly localized in the pyramidal cells and granular cells of mouse hippocampus, and its expression was increased in the brain tissues of mouse models of epilepsy. Exogenous overexpression of MBD5 inhibited the transcription of the signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 gene (Stat1), resulting in increased expression of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) subunit 1 (GluN1), 2A (GluN2A) and 2B (GluN2B), leading to aggravation of the epileptic behaviour phenotype in mice. In contrast, overexpression of STAT1 reduced the expression of NMDARs and alleviated the epileptic behavioural phenotype of mice. Furthermore, the epileptic behavioural phenotype was relieved by the NMDAR antagonist memantine. These results indicate that MBD5 accumulation affects seizures through STAT1-mediated inhibition of NMDAR expression in mice. Collectively, our findings suggest that the MBD5-STAT1- NMDAR pathway may be a new pathway that regulates the epileptic behavioural phenotype and may represent a new treatment target.

Project description:MBD5 can physically interact with BAP1. Some genes may be regulated by both MBD5 and BAP1. We used microarrays to check whether the overlaps of differentially expressed genes when knockdown MBD5 or BAP1 were more than that would be expected by chance. Thus, we could suggest that BAP1 was required for the regulatory effect of MBD5

Project description:SLC13A5 encodes a citrate transporter highly expressed in the brain important for regulating intra- and extracellular citrate levels. Mutations in this gene cause a rare infantile epilepsy characterized by lifelong seizures, developmental delays, behavioral deficits, poor motor progression, and language impairments. SLC13A5 individuals respond poorly to treatment options; yet drug discovery programs are limited due to a paucity of animal models that phenocopy human symptoms. Here, we used CRISPR/Cas9 to create loss-of-function mutations in slc13a5a and slc13a5b, the zebrafish paralogs to human SLC13A5. slc13a5 mutant larvae showed cognitive dysfunction and sleep disturbances, consistent with SLC13A5 individuals. These mutants also exhibited fewer neurons and a concomitant increase in apoptosis across the optic tectum, a region important for sensory processing. slc13a5 mutants displayed hallmark features of epilepsy, including an imbalance in glutamatergic and GABAergic excitatory-inhibitory gene expression, disrupted neurometabolism, and neuronal hyperexcitation as measured in vivo by extracellular field recordings and live calcium imaging. Mechanistically, we tested the involvement of NMDA signaling in slc13a5 mutant epilepsy-like phenotypes. Slc13a5 protein co-localizes with excitatory NMDA receptors in wild-type zebrafish and blocking NMDA receptors in slc13a5 mutant larvae rescued bioenergetics, hyperexcitable calcium events, and behavioral defects. These data provide empirical evidence in support of the hypothesis that excess extracellular citrate over-chelates the ions needed to regulate NMDA receptor function, leading to sustained channel opening and an exaggerated excitatory response that manifests as seizures. These data show the utility of slc13a5 mutant zebrafish for studying SLC13A5 epilepsy and open new avenues for drug discovery.

Project description:Background: MBD5, encoding the methyl-CpG-binding domain 5 protein, has been proposed as a necessary and sufficient driver of the 2q23.1 microdeletion syndrome. De novo missense and protein-truncating variants from exome sequencing studies have directly implicated MBD5 in the etiology of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and related neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs). However, little is known concerning the specific function(s) of MBD5. Methods: In an effort to gain insight into the complex interactions associated with genetic alteration of MBD5 in individuals with ASD and related NDDs, we explored the transcriptional landscape of MBD5 haploinsufficiency across multiple mouse brain regions of the heterozygous hypomorphic Mbd5+/GT mouse model and compared these results to CRISPR-mediated mutations of MBD5 in human iPSC-derived neuronal models. Results: Gene expression analyses of three brain regions from Mbd5+/GT mice showed cortex as the region most affected by the knockdown, indicating context-dependent effects. Gene co-expression network analyses revealed gene clusters that are associated with MBD5 knockdown and enriched for GPCR signaling and terms related to ciliary function. We also identified genes that were downregulated in both models such as EPHA3, OLIG1, related to neuronal development and glial function. Limitations: These analyses were performed in a limited number of brain regions and neuronal models, and the effects of the gene knockdown are subtle. As such, these results will not reflect the full extent of MBD5 disruption across brain tissues during early brain developmentneurodevelopment in ASD. Conclusions: Our study points to transcriptional consequences of Mbd5 disruption in the brain and suggests a link between MBD5 and pathways such as ciliary function that are associated with established developmental disorders and syndromes.

Project description:MBD5, MBD6, and MBD7 are CG-specific methyl-readers with opposite functions: MBD5 and MBD6 (MBD5/6) redundantly repress methylated loci in pollen vegetative nuclei (VN), while MBD7 prevents transgene silencing, possibly by promoting DNA demethylation. Here we show that transcriptional derepression in mbd5/6 pollen is rescued by loss of MBD7, suggesting that MBD5/6 counteract MBD7 activity. By simultaneously profiling DNA methylation and gene expression in single pollen nuclei, we found that CG methylation is lost at MBD5/6 targets specifically in the early post-mitotic VN of mbd5/6. This loss precedes mbd5/6 transcriptional derepression and is largely restored in mbd5/6/7 triple mutants. Altering MBD6 to recruit the MBD7 complex instead of its normal interactors caused demethylation and upregulation of MBD5/6 targets, turning MBD6 from a repressor into an activator. We propose that in VN, where chromatin is decondensed, MBD5/6 are required to protect accessible DNA from demethylation and derepression by the MBD7 complex.
