    Highly multiplexed subcellular RNA sequencing in situ (2014)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-03-01
    Description: Understanding the spatial organization of gene expression with single-nucleotide resolution requires localizing the sequences of expressed RNA transcripts within a cell in situ. Here, we describe fluorescent in situ RNA sequencing (FISSEQ), in which stably cross-linked complementary DNA (cDNA) amplicons are sequenced within a biological sample. Using 30-base reads from 8102 genes in situ, we examined RNA expression and localization in human primary fibroblasts with a simulated wound-healing assay. FISSEQ is compatible with tissue sections and whole-mount embryos and reduces the limitations of optical resolution and noisy signals on single-molecule detection. Our platform enables massively parallel detection of genetic elements, including gene transcripts and molecular barcodes, and can be used to investigate cellular phenotype, gene regulation, and environment in situ.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4140943/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4140943/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lee, Je Hyuk -- Daugharthy, Evan R -- Scheiman, Jonathan -- Kalhor, Reza -- Yang, Joyce L -- Ferrante, Thomas C -- Terry, Richard -- Jeanty, Sauveur S F -- Li, Chao -- Amamoto, Ryoji -- Peters, Derek T -- Turczyk, Brian M -- Marblestone, Adam H -- Inverso, Samuel A -- Bernard, Amy -- Mali, Prashant -- Rios, Xavier -- Aach, John -- Church, George M -- GM080177/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- MH098977/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- P50 HG005550/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- RC2 HL102815/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- RC2HL102815/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- T32 GM007753/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- T32 GM080177/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- U01 MH098977/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2014 Mar 21;343(6177):1360-3. doi: 10.1126/science.1250212.

    Development-inspired reprogramming of the mammalian central nervous system (2014)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-01
    Description: In 2012, John Gurdon and Shinya Yamanaka shared the Nobel Prize for the demonstration that the identity of differentiated cells is not irreversibly determined but can be changed back to a pluripotent state under appropriate instructive signals. The principle that differentiated cells can revert to an embryonic state and even be converted directly from one cell type into another not only turns fundamental principles of development on their heads but also has profound implications for regenerative medicine. Replacement of diseased tissue with newly reprogrammed cells and modeling of human disease are concrete opportunities. Here, we focus on the central nervous system to consider whether and how reprogramming of cell identity may affect regeneration and modeling of a system historically considered immutable and hardwired.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4122114/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4122114/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Amamoto, Ryoji -- Arlotta, Paola -- R01 NS062849/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- T32 GM007226/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2014 Jan 31;343(6170):1239882. doi: 10.1126/science.1239882.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Stem Cell and Regenerative Biology, Sherman Fairchild Building, 7 Divinity Avenue, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA 02138, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24482482" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Deficiency of {alpha}-glucosidase I alters glycoprotein glycosylation and lifespan in Caenorhabditis elegans (2013)
    Oxford University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2013-09-08
    Description: Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) α-glucosidase I is an enzyme that trims the distal α1,2-linked glucose (Glc) residue from the Glc 3 Man 9 GlcNAc 2 oligosaccharide following its addition to nascent glycoproteins in the initial step of processing. This reaction is critical to the subsequent processing of N-glycans and thus defects in α-glucosidase I gene in human cause congenital disorder of glycosylation (CDG) type IIb. We identified the Caenorhabditis elegans α-glucosidase I gene (F13H10.4, designated agl-1 ) that encodes a polypeptide with 36% identity to human α-glucosidase I. The agl-1 cDNA restored the expression of complex-type N-glycans on the cell surface of α-glucosidase I-defective Chinese hamster ovary Lec23 cells. RNAi knockdown of agl-1 [ agl-1 (RNAi)] produced worms that were visibly similar to wild-type, but lifespan was reduced to about half of the control. Analyses of N -glycosylation in agl-1 (RNAi) animals by western blotting and mass spectrometry showed reduction of paucimannose and complex-type glycans and dramatic increase of glucosylated oligomannose glycans. In addition, a significant amount of unusual terminally fucosylated N-glycans were found in agl-1 (RNAi) animals. ER stress response was also provoked, leading to the accumulation of large amounts of triglucosylated free oligosaccharides (FOSs) (Glc 3 Man 4–5 GlcNAc 1–2 ) in agl-1 (RNAi) animals. Acceleration of ER-associated degradation in response to the accumulation of unfolded glycoproteins and insufficient interaction with calnexin/calreticulin in the ER lumen likely accounts for the increase of FOSs. Taken together, these studies in C. elegans demonstrate that decreased ER α-glucosidase I affects the entire N-glycan profile and induces chronic ER stress, which may contribute to the pathophysiology of CDG-IIb in humans.

    FOXO3 determines the accumulation of {alpha}-synuclein and controls the fate of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra (2014)
    Oxford University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-20
    Description: Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by the selective degeneration of neuronal populations presumably due to pathogenic interactions between aging and predisposing factors such as increased levels of α-synuclein. Here, we genetically modulate the activity of the transcription factor Forkhead box protein O3 (FOXO3) in adult nigral dopaminergic neurons using viral vectors and explore how this determinant of longevity impacts on neuronal fate in normal and diseased conditions. We find that dopaminergic neurons are particularly vulnerable to changes in FOXO3 activity in the substantia nigra . While constitutive activation has proapoptotic effects leading to neuronal loss, inhibition of FOXO-mediated transcription by a dominant-negative competitor causes oxidative damage and is detrimental at high vector dose. To address the role of FOXO3 in PD, we modulate its activity in dopaminergic neurons overexpressing human α-synuclein. In this pathogenic condition, we find that FOXO inhibition has protective effects, suggesting that this transcription factor ultimately contributes to neuronal cell death. Nevertheless, mild FOXO3 activity also protects nigral neurons against the accumulation of human α-synuclein, albeit to a lesser extent. FOXO3 reduces the amount of α-synuclein present in the soluble protein fraction and promotes the coalescence of dense proteinase K-resistant aggregates, with an accumulation of autophagic vacuoles containing lipofuscin. Consistent with these in vivo observations, we find that FOXO3 controls autophagic flux in neuronal cells. Altogether, these results point to FOXO3 as an important determinant of neuronal survival in the substantia nigra , which may oppose α-synuclein accumulation and proteotoxicity.
