- Early diagnosis and biomarker discovery to bolster the therapeutic pipeline for Parkinson's disease (PD) are urgently needed. In this study, we leverage the large-scale, whole-blood total RNA and DNA sequencing data from the Accelerating Medicines Partnership in Parkinson's Disease (AMP PD) program to identify PD-associated RNAs, including both known genes and novel circular RNAs (circRNA) and enhancer RNAs (eRNAs). Initially, 874 known genes, 783 eRNAs, and 35 circRNAs were found differentially expressed in PD blood in the PPMI cohort (FDR < 0.05). Based on these findings, a novel multi-omics machine learning model was built to predict PD diagnosis with high performance (AUC = 0.89), which was superior to previous models. We further replicated this discovery in an independent PDBP/BioFIND cohort and confirmed 1,111 significant marker genes, including 491 known genes, 599 eRNAs, and 21 circRNAs. Functional enrichment analysis showed that the PD-associated genes are involved in neutrophil activation and degranulation, as well as the TNF-α signaling pathway. By comparing the PD-associated genes in blood with those in human brain dopamine neurons in our BRAINcode cohort, we found only 44 genes (9% of the known genes) showing significant changes with the same direction in both PD brain neurons and PD blood, among which are neuroinflammation-associated genes IKBIP, CXCR2, and NFKBIB. Our findings demonstrated consistently lower SNCA mRNA levels and the increased expression levels of VDR gene in the blood of early-stage PD patients. In summary, this study provides a generally useful computational framework for further biomarker development and early disease prediction. We also delineate a wide spectrum of the known and novel RNAs linked to PD that are detectable in circulating blood cells in a harmonized, large-scale dataset. - Source: PubMed

Dong XianjunHu RuifengWang RuoxuanYuan JieLin ZechuanHutchins ElizabethLandin BarryLiao ZhixiangLiu GanqiangScherzer Clemens - Dipeptidyl peptidase 9 (DPP9) is an indispensable intracellular protease. Among its many molecular functions is suppression of the NLRP1 inflammasome. Inhibitors targeting all four proteases of the DPP4 family, including DPP9, can reduce tumour burden, including in mouse liver. To explore hepatocyte DPP9 in experimental hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), we generated hepatocyte-specific DPP9-KO mice by crossing albumin-Cre mice with DPP9 floxed mice and treated sequentially with diethylnitrosamine, then with thioacetamide combined with an atherogenic high-fat diet until 28 weeks of age. DPP9-KO mice had less body, liver and subcutaneous adipose tissue mass, lower fasting plasma glucose and fewer small macroscopic liver nodules compared to DPP9-WT control mice. However, there were no differences in the total number of macroscopic liver nodules, or of microscopic tumour burden, inflammation, fibrosis or steatosis. Consistent with the known function of DPP9 to suppress NLRP1 activation, activated caspase-1 protein and inflammation markers Nfkbib, Cxcl10 and Ccl5 were elevated in DPP9-KO liver. The tumour suppressor protein p53 was increased and the autophagy proteins beclin1, LC3B and p62 were altered. In conclusion, hepatocyte-specific DPP9 gene deletion in experimental primary liver cancer improved energy metabolism and may reduce liver cancer initiation, via mechanisms that may include increased autophagy and tumour suppression. - Source: PubMed

Zhu Jun-YanHan YuYang Jing-YuWang De-PingGao Li-JuanSun TengFeng Yan-LinHe Zhong-MeiZhou BinCao Ji-Min - This study aimed to identify splicing quantitative trait loci (cis-sQTL) in Nelore cattle muscle tissue and explore the involvement of spliced genes (sGenes) in immune system-related biological processes. Genotypic data from 80 intact male Nelore cattle were obtained using SNP-Chip technology, while RNA-Seq analysis was performed to measure gene expression levels, enabling the integration of genomic and transcriptomic datasets. The normalized expression levels of spliced transcripts were associated with single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) through an analysis of variance using an additive linear model with the MatrixEQTL package. A permutation analysis then assessed the significance of the best SNPs for each spliced transcript. Functional enrichment analysis was performed on the sGenes to investigate their roles in the immune system. In total, 3,187 variants were linked to 3,202 spliced transcripts, with 83 sGenes involved in immune system processes. Of these, 31 sGenes were enriched for five transcription factors. Most cis-sQTL effects were found in intronic regions, with 27 sQTL variants associated with disease susceptibility and resistance in cattle. Key sGenes identified, such as GSDMA, NLRP6, CASP6, GZMA, CASP4, CASP1, TREM2, NLRP1, and NAIP, were related to inflammasome formation and pyroptosis. Additionally, genes like PIDD1, OPTN, NFKBIB, STAT1, TNIP3, and TREM2 were involved in regulating the NF-kB pathway. These findings lay the groundwork for breeding disease-resistant cattle and enhance our understanding of genetic mechanisms in immune responses. - Source: PubMed

Dos Santos Thaís Cristina FerreiraSilva Evandro NevesFrezarim Gabriela BonfáSalatta Bruna MariaBaldi FernandoFonseca Larissa Fernanda SimielliAlbuquerque Lucia Galvão DeMuniz Maria Malane MagalhãesSilva Danielly Beraldo Dos Santos - Aging and chronic inflammation are associated with overabundant myeloid-primed multipotent progenitors (MPPs) among hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs). Although hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) differentiation bias has been considered a primary cause of myeloid bias, whether it is sufficient has not been quantitatively evaluated. Here, we analyzed bone marrow data from the IκB- (Nfkbia+/-Nfkbib-/-Nfkbie-/-) mouse model of inflammation with elevated NFκB activity, which reveals increased myeloid-biased MPPs. We interpreted these data with differential equation models of population dynamics to identify alterations of HSPC proliferation and differentiation rates. This analysis revealed that short-term HSC differentiation bias alone is likely insufficient to account for the increase in myeloid-biased MPPs. To explore additional mechanisms, we used single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) measurements of IκB- and wild-type HSPCs to track the continuous differentiation trajectories from HSCs to erythrocyte/megakaryocyte, myeloid, and lymphoid primed progenitors. Fitting a partial differential equations model of population dynamics to these data revealed not only less lymphoid-fate specification among HSCs but also increased expansion of early myeloid-primed progenitors. Differentially expressed genes along the differentiation trajectories supported increased proliferation among these progenitors. These findings were conserved when wild-type HSPCs were transplanted into IκB- recipients, indicating that an inflamed bone marrow microenvironment is a sufficient driver. We then applied our analysis pipeline to scRNA-seq measurements of HSPCs isolated from aged mice and human patients with myeloid neoplasms. These analyses identified the same myeloid-primed progenitor expansion as in the IκB- models, suggesting that it is a common feature across different settings of myeloid bias. - Source: PubMed
