  • Neurodevelopmental Signatures of Narcotic and Neuropsychiatric Risk Factors in 3D Human-Derived Forebrain Organoids
    Molecular Psychiatry www.nature.com/mp ARTICLE OPEN Neurodevelopmental signatures of narcotic and neuropsychiatric risk factors in 3D human-derived forebrain organoids 1 1 1 1 2 2 3 Michael Notaras , Aiman Lodhi , Estibaliz✉ Barrio-Alonso , Careen Foord , Tori Rodrick , Drew Jones , Haoyun Fang , David Greening 3,4 and Dilek Colak 1,5 © The Author(s) 2021 It is widely accepted that narcotic use during pregnancy and specific environmental factors (e.g., maternal immune activation and chronic stress) may increase risk of neuropsychiatric illness in offspring. However, little progress has been made in defining human- specific in utero neurodevelopmental pathology due to ethical and technical challenges associated with accessing human prenatal brain tissue. Here we utilized human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) to generate reproducible organoids that recapitulate dorsal forebrain development including early corticogenesis. We systemically exposed organoid samples to chemically defined “enviromimetic” compounds to examine the developmental effects of various narcotic and neuropsychiatric-related risk factors within tissue of human origin. In tandem experiments conducted in parallel, we modeled exposure to opiates (μ-opioid agonist endomorphin), cannabinoids (WIN 55,212-2), alcohol (ethanol), smoking (nicotine), chronic stress (human cortisol), and maternal immune activation (human Interleukin-17a; IL17a). Human-derived dorsal forebrain organoids were consequently analyzed via an array of unbiased and high-throughput analytical approaches, including state-of-the-art TMT-16plex liquid chromatography/mass- spectrometry (LC/MS) proteomics, hybrid MS metabolomics, and flow cytometry panels to determine cell-cycle dynamics and rates of cell death. This pipeline subsequently revealed both common and unique proteome, reactome, and metabolome alterations as a consequence of enviromimetic modeling of narcotic use and neuropsychiatric-related risk factors in tissue of human origin.

We utilized an informatics-based approach to develop a transcriptional signature of β-cell GA stress using existing RNA sequencing and microarray datasets generated using human islets from donors with diabetes and islets where type 1(T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) had been modeled ex vivo. To narrow our results to GA-specific genes, we applied a filter set of 1,030 genes accepted as GA associated.

Abstract Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer mortality in the United States with non-small cell lung cancer adenocarcinoma being the most common histological type. Early perturbations in cellular metabolism are a hallmark of cancer, but the extent of these changes in early stage lung adenocarcinoma remains largely unknown.

It is made available under aCC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 International license. Increased α-2,8-sialyltransferase 8B (ST8SIA2) expression in schizophrenia superior temporal gyrus Toni M. Mueller*, Stefani D. Yates, and James H. Meador-Woodruff Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Neurobiology, University of Alabama at Birmingham, Birmingham, AL, USA *Corresponding author Reduced polysialylation of neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) in schizophrenia has been suggested to contribute to abnormal neuroplasticity and neurodevelopmental features of this illness. The posttranslational addition of sialic acid is mediated by sialyltransferases, and polysialylation (the addition of ≥ 8 α-2,8-linked sialic acid residues) is catalyzed by three enzymes: ST8SIA2 (also called STX), ST8SIA4 (also called PST), and/or ST8SIA3. ST8SIA2 and ST8SIA4 are the primary mediators of NCAM polysialylation. The gene encoding ST8SIA2 maps to schizophrenia risk locus 15q26, and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and SNP haplotypes of the ST8SIA2 gene have been associated with schizophrenia in multiple populations. The current study in elderly schizophrenia (N = 16) and comparison (N = 14) subjects measured the protein expression of NCAM, polysialylated-NCAM (PSA- NCAM), and three poly-α-2,8-sialyltransferases (ST8SIA2, ST8SIA3, and ST8SIA4) in postmortem superior temporal gyrus. Although expression of NCAM, PSA-NCAM, ST8SIA3, and ST8SIA4 were not different in schizophrenia, increased protein levels of ST8SIA2 were identified.

DEDICATION This work is dedicated to the persons living with cobalamin disorders and their families. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank my supervisors David Rosenblatt and James Coulton for their support and inspiration during the years I have spent in their company. I am grateful for all the opportunities they have opened for me, for their time and their patience. Thank you to my committee members, Dr. Eric Shoubridge and Dr. Rima Slim, for their advice and guidance. Special thanks also to Drs. David Watkins and Maria Plesa for their technical guidance and their great depth of knowledge. I would also like to thank them for proofreading work. Thank you to the students, particularly Woranontee Werarpachai for teaching me microcell-mediated chromosome transfer, Abigail Gradinger and Amanda Duval-Loewy for getting me started with PCR and cell culture, and all the other students I had the chance to work with. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS DEDICATION .......................................................................................................................ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS...................................................................................................... iii TABLE OF

  • Massive Parallel Sequencing As a New Diagnostic Approach For
    Chaiyasap et al. BMC Medical Genetics (2017) 18:102 DOI 10.1186/s12881-017-0464-x RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Massive parallel sequencing as a new diagnostic approach for phenylketonuria and tetrahydrobiopterin-deficiency in Thailand Pongsathorn Chaiyasap1, Chupong Ittiwut1,2, Chalurmpon Srichomthong1,2, Apiruk Sangsin3, Kanya Suphapeetiporn1,2,4* and Vorasuk Shotelersuk1,2 Abstract Background: Hyperphenylalaninemia (HPA) can be classified into phenylketonuria (PKU) which is caused by mutations in the phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) gene, and BH4 deficiency caused by alterations in genes involved in tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) biosynthesis pathway. Dietary restriction of phenylalanine is considered to be the main treatment of PKU to prevent irreversible intellectual disability. However, the same dietary intervention in BH4 deficiency patients is not as effective, as BH4 is also a cofactor in many neurotransmitter syntheses. Method: We utilized next generation sequencing (NGS) technique to investigate four unrelated Thai patients with hyperphenylalaninemia. Result: We successfully identified all eight mutant alleles in PKU or BH4-deficiency associated genes including three novel mutations, one in PAH and two in PTS, thus giving a definite diagnosis to these patients. Appropriate management can then be provided. Conclusion: This study identified three novel mutations in either the PAH or PTS gene and supported the use of NGS as an alternative molecular genetic approach for definite diagnosis of hyperphenylalaninemia, thus leading to proper management of these patients in Thailand.
