Project description:To investigate the possible impact of MOK-inhibition in early transcriptional responses induced by TDP-43 aggregates, we tested the effect of AG2P145D/C13-pretreatment of SIM-A9 cells and subsequent exposure to TDP-43 (or sham) aggregates.

Project description:Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is the most common and fatal motor neuron disease. Approximately 90% of ALS patients exhibit pathology of the master RNA regulator, Transactive Response DNA Binding protein (TDP-43). Despite the prevalence TDP-43 pathology in ALS motor neurons, recent findings suggest immune dysfunction is a determinant of disease progression in patients. Whether TDP-43 aggregates elicit immune responses remains underexplored. In this study, we demonstrate that TDP-43 aggregates are internalized by antigen presenting cell populations, cause vesicle rupture, and drive innate and adaptive immune cell activation by way of antigen presentation. Using a multiplex imaging platform, we observed enrichment of activated microglia/macrophages in ALS white matter that correlated with phosphorylated TDP-43 accumulation, CD8 T-cell infiltration, and major histocompatibility complex expression. Taken together, this study sheds light on a novel cellular response to TDP43 aggregates through an immunological lens.

Project description:97% of sporadic ALS patients exhibit pathology and aggregation of a global RNA regulator protein, transactive response DNA binding protein of 43 kDa (TDP-43). The goal of this study was to optimize and characterize a novel immuno-purification platform for ALS-associated TDP-43 aggregates using a scalable HEK293A culture model. Proteomics analysis was used to profile disease-associated post-translational modifications and TDP-43 co-aggregating proteins. Our findings support use of this protocol to generate pathologically relevant TDP-43 aggregates suitable for mechanistic studies in biochemical and cell-based assays.

Project description:Cytoplasmic aggregates of TDP-43 are found in neuronal and skeletal muscle diseases yet it is not understood how these protein aggregates relate to the biological function of TDP-43. By examining normal skeletal muscle formation, we discovered TDP-43 redistributes from the nucleus into the cytoplasm and forms higher-ordered aggregates. These skeletal muscle TDP-43 aggregates adopt an amyloid-like structure capable of binding RNA. In skeletal muscle, TDP-43 binds UG-rich, sarcomeric mRNAs and oligomerizes on these long mRNA transcripts facilitating amyloid formation. Tissue specific genetic deletion of TDP-43 in skeletal muscle disrupts the formation and maintenance of the sarcomere and mislocalizes sarcomeric mRNAs. Thus, cytoplasmic, amyloid-like TDP-43 aggregates that traffic mRNAs could serve as a precursor to pathological TDP-43 aggregates common in degenerative neuromuscular disease.

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:Recent studies exploring the underlying pathomechanisms of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), a fatal motor neuron disorder, have focused on biomolecular condensates, such as stress granules (SGs) and TDP-43 condensates. Our comprehension of the physicochemical processes that control the behavior of these condensates is still evolving. In this work, we reveal an unexpected function for YAP, a central component of the Hippo pathway, in regulating the dynamic behavior of SGs and TDP-43 condensates, a role that is independent of its transcriptional activity in Hippo pathway. We found that YAP can directly bind to the TB domain of TDP-43 through its N-terminal domain. This interaction promotes the homotypic multimerization and phase separation of TDP-43, while inhibiting its hyper- phosphorylation and solidification under stress conditions. Remarkably, YAP, whose mRNA level is reduced in ALS patients, is found to co-localize with pathological pTDP-43 aggregates in the cytoplasmic foci of ALS patient brains. Additionally, elevating YAP/Yorkie expression substantially reduces neurotoxicity in a TDP-43 transgenic fly model of ALS. Our findings highlight an unexpected chaperone-like role of YAP in managing ALS-associated biomolecular condensates, presenting significant implications for potential ALS treatments.

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.
