项目摘要

Project Summary Women have a higher lifetime risk of developing Alzheimer's disease (AD) than men. This increased risk is not fully explained by differences in longevity, hormones or brain structure. Women who carry at least one copy of the APOEɛ4 allele, the strongest genetic risk factor for late onset AD (LOAD), have accelerated neuropathology. However, some studies suggest a faster decline in men, suggesting that sex bias may differ depending on the stage of the disease. Here, we will investigate how the sex chromosome complement and sex-linked genes influences sex differences in onset and progression of LOAD. Genome-wide association studies have identified genetic and epigenetic risk factors for LOAD, but the sex-chromosomes are often excluded in these studies meaning there is a lack of data on sex-linked genes. Males have unique Y-linked genes and females have higher expression of genes that escape X inactivation. Interestingly, many of the escape genes are related to immune function and neuroinflammation is a hallmark of AD, suggesting that these genes may directly contribute to disease progression. To address the impact of sex-linked genes combined with APOEɛ4 alleles on neuroinflammation in LOAD we will use unique cellular models and AD tissue for leveraging integrated omics and functional studies. We will evaluate the functional roles of sex chromosomes and sex-linked genes in brain cell types using human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC) models. We have derived isogenic pairs of hiPSCs with a different number of sex chromosomes on the same genetic background (XXY/XY or XXX/X). These new hiPSC lines minimize variability between individuals, as well as environmental or hormonal confounders. We will generate isogenic pairs of these lines with ɛ3/3 or ɛ3/4 alleles by gene editing. After differentiation of hiPSC into neurons, microglia, and brain organoids we will employ a combination of `omic' analyses and functional assays focusing on neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration. This approach will identify sex-linked candidate genes, which will be tested for dosage effects by knockdown and overexpression. These in vitro studies will be validated in human tissue collected by the Precision Neuropathology Core from our Alzheimer's Disease Research Center brain bank. Using pathologically characterized AD brains we will employ myeloid-specific single-nucleus RNA sequencing to determine the effects of sex and APOEɛ4 genotypes on microglial subtypes and neuroimmune gene expression. Our new team combines expertise in hiPSC modeling, sex-linked genes, neuroinflammation, `omic analyses and neuropathology. This integrative study will help understand sex-specific genetic factors and how those factors interact with APOEɛ4 risk to modulate cellular dysfunction and pathology, thus providing novel insights into how to tailor a more effective treatment for AD.
项目摘要 女性患阿尔茨海默病(AD)的终生风险高于男性。这种增加的风险不是 这完全可以用寿命、荷尔蒙或大脑结构的差异来解释。携带至少一份 APOE β 4等位基因是晚发性AD(LOAD)最强的遗传危险因子,它加速了AD的神经病理学改变. 然而,一些研究表明,男性的下降速度更快,这表明性别偏见可能因性别而异。 疾病阶段。在这里,我们将探讨性染色体如何互补和性连锁基因 影响LOAD发病和进展的性别差异。全基因组关联研究已经确定 LOAD的遗传和表观遗传风险因素,但这些研究中通常排除性染色体 这意味着缺乏性连锁基因的数据。男性有独特的Y连锁基因,女性有更高的 逃避X失活的基因的表达。有趣的是,许多逃避基因与免疫相关, 功能和神经炎症是AD的标志,表明这些基因可能直接导致疾病 进展为了阐明性连锁基因与APOE β 4等位基因联合对神经炎症的影响, LOAD我们将使用独特的细胞模型和AD组织来利用集成的组学和功能研究。 我们将评估性染色体和性连锁基因在脑细胞类型中的功能作用, 诱导多能干细胞(hiPSC)模型。我们已经推导出具有不同数量的hiPSC的同基因对, 性染色体在相同的遗传背景(XXY/XY或XXX/X)。这些新的hiPSC生产线最大限度地减少了 个体之间的变异性,以及环境或激素的混杂因素。我们将产生同基因对 通过基因编辑技术对这些等位基因为103/3或103/4的品系进行筛选。在hiPSC分化成神经元、小胶质细胞和胶质细胞后, 脑类器官,我们将采用“组学”分析和功能测定的组合,重点是 神经炎症和神经变性。这种方法将确定性连锁的候选基因,这将是 通过敲低和过表达测试剂量效应。这些体外研究将在人体中进行验证 由精密神经病理学核心从我们的阿尔茨海默病研究中心脑库收集的组织。 使用病理学特征的AD脑,我们将采用骨髓特异性单核RNA测序, 确定性别和APOE β 4基因型对小胶质细胞亚型和神经免疫基因表达的影响。 我们的新团队结合了hiPSC建模、性连锁基因、神经炎症、组学分析和 神经病理学这项综合性研究将有助于了解性别特异性遗传因素以及这些因素如何影响性别差异。 与APOE β 4风险相互作用以调节细胞功能障碍和病理学,从而为如何 为AD量身定制更有效的治疗方法。
