Neuronal necrosis induced by excessive glutamate release is well known to contribute morbidity and mortality in ischemic stroke. Over the past decades, strategies on targeting glutamate receptor did not achieve desirable clinical outcomes. Finding the downstream mechanism of the glutamate receptor activation may provide new targets to suppress the cell death. Previously, our study demonstrated that the increase of H3K4 trimethylation (H3K4me3) played a key detrimental role on neuronal necrosis; however, the mechanism of this histone modification is unclear. Through a genome-wide small RNA sequencing, we identified several tRNA-derived fragments (tRFs) and piwi-interacting RNA (piRNAs) species were enriched in glutamate-induced neuronal necrosis in rat primary neuron cultures, and this enrichment was dependent on the H3K4me3 increase. Strikingly, when we transfected several synthesized tRFs and piRNA species into neurons, the tRFs but not the piRNAs induced neuron swelling and death. The cell death morphology recapitulated neuronal necrosis induced by glutamate. For the cytotoxic effect of tRFs, our data suggested that protein synthesis was inhibited likely through induction of ribosomal stalling. By proteomic analysis of tRFs effect, the most affected pathway was enriched in the mitochondrial metabolism. Consistently, mitochondrial fragmentation was increased in neuronal necrosis, and suppression of mitochondrial fission by genetic manipulation or drug rescued neuronal necrosis. Using our previously establishedDrosophilamodel of neuronal necrosis, we found that inhibition of small RNA transcription, blocking RNA transport from nucleus to cytosol, or knocking downAgo1/2to suppress the RNA interference effect, all rescued the fly death, suggesting transcription and processing of small RNAs contribute to neuronal necrosis. Together, these results indicate that the abnormal transcription of tRFs may play a key role downstream of the H3K4me3 increase. This provides a potential new strategy to suppress neuronal necrosis.
