项目摘要

Abstract ALS or Lou Gehrig's disease is the most common adult-onset motor neuron disease, characterized by the progressive degeneration of motor neurons in the spinal cord, brain stem, and motor cortex. Motor neuron death leads to muscle weakness and paralysis, usually causing death in one to five years after symptoms onset. The molecular mechanisms responsible for motor neuron degeneration in ALS remain uncertain. However, several lines of evidence indicate that dysfunction of glial cells significantly contributes to the neurodegenerative process. Astrocytes, key regulators of central nervous system homeostasis, have been shown to play a major role in the progression of the disease. Accordingly, in cell culture models, astrocytes isolated from ALS mouse models or astrocytes differentiated from fibroblast-derived induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from sporadic and familial ALS patients, induce motor neuron death. Astrocytes have a key role in the metabolic support of neurons, and lack of metabolic flexibility and mitochondrial dysfunction are hallmarks of ALS astrocytes. We recently showed that NR1D1 plays a critical role in the regulation of astrocyte-motor neuron interaction. NR1D1 is a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily and it is an essential component of the molecular clock in mammals. NR1D1 is also a known repressor of metabolic and inflammatory genes, and has been shown to regulate mitochondrial number and function, glucose and lipid metabolism, and inflammation during normal and pathological conditions. We recently reported that NR1D1 expression decreases in the spinal cord of symptomatic ALS mice. Moreover, we showed that the knockdown of Nr1d1 expression in primary mouse spinal cord astrocyte cultures, or in iPSC- derived human astrocytes, activates NF-kB signaling and induces a pro-inflammatory phenotype that is detrimental for the survival of co-cultured motor neurons. In addition, our preliminary data shows that iPSC- derived astrocytes from ALS patients display lower levels of NR1D1 expression when compared to astrocytes derived from healthy controls. In this proposal, we will investigate the role of NR1D1 in the regulation of astrocyte- motor neuron interaction and the therapeutic potential of targeting NR1D1 in ALS. We will perform an unbiased multi-omic analysis to outline the mechanism by which NR1D1 downregulation induces a neurotoxic phenotype in human iPSC-derived astrocytes (Aim 1). In addition, we will use different approaches to evaluate the effect of modulating NR1D1 expression on the progression of the disease in an ALS mouse model (Aims 2 and 3). The results obtained will contribute to the current understanding of the mechanisms involved in the toxicity of astrocytes towards motor neurons in ALS. In addition, this proposal will establish the therapeutic value of targeting NR1D1 to slow or halt the progression of the disease in an ALS mouse model.
摘要 ALS或Lou Gehrig病是最常见的成人发作的运动神经元疾病,其特征在于 脊髓、脑干和运动皮质中运动神经元的进行性变性。运动神经元死亡 导致肌肉无力和瘫痪,通常在症状出现后1至5年内死亡。的 导致ALS中运动神经元变性的分子机制仍然不确定。但几 一系列证据表明神经胶质细胞的功能障碍显著地促成了神经变性过程。 星形胶质细胞是中枢神经系统稳态的关键调节因子,已被证明在中枢神经系统稳态中起主要作用。 疾病的进展。因此,在细胞培养模型中,分离自ALS小鼠模型或 星形胶质细胞从来自散发性和家族性的成纤维细胞衍生的诱导多能干细胞(iPSC)分化 ALS患者,诱发运动神经元死亡。星形胶质细胞在神经元的代谢支持中起关键作用, 缺乏代谢灵活性和线粒体功能障碍是ALS星形胶质细胞的标志。我们最近展示了 NR 1D 1在调节星形胶质细胞-运动神经元相互作用中起着关键作用。NR 1D 1是 核受体超家族,是哺乳动物分子钟的重要组成部分。NR 1D 1是 也是一种已知的代谢和炎症基因的阻遏物,并已被证明可调节线粒体 数量和功能,葡萄糖和脂质代谢,以及正常和病理条件下的炎症。 我们最近报道,NR 1D 1的表达减少,在有症状的ALS小鼠的脊髓。此外,委员会认为, 我们发现,在原代小鼠脊髓星形胶质细胞培养物或iPSC中敲低Nr 1d 1表达, 衍生的人星形胶质细胞,激活NF-κ B信号传导并诱导促炎表型, 不利于共培养运动神经元的存活。此外,我们的初步数据显示,iPSC- 与星形胶质细胞相比,来自ALS患者的星形胶质细胞显示较低水平的NR 1D 1表达 来自健康对照。在这项提案中,我们将研究NR 1D 1在星形胶质细胞调节中的作用- 运动神经元相互作用和靶向NR 1D 1在ALS中的治疗潜力。我们将执行一个公正的 多组学分析概述NR 1D 1下调诱导神经毒性表型的机制 在人iPSC衍生的星形胶质细胞中(Aim 1)。此外,我们将使用不同的方法来评估 在ALS小鼠模型中调节NR 1D 1表达对疾病进展的影响(目的2和3)。的 所获得的结果将有助于目前了解的机制,涉及的毒性, 星形胶质细胞向运动神经元的转化此外,该提案将确立 靶向NR 1D 1以减缓或停止ALS小鼠模型中疾病的进展。
