GSE GEOAutism-associated CHD8 controls reactive gliosis and neuroinflammation via remodeling chromatin in astrocytes [ATAC-seq]
Relations
Summary
Reactive changes of glial cells during neuroinflammation impact brain disorders and disease progression. Elucidating the mechanisms that control reactive gliosis may help understand brain pathophysiology and improve outcomes. Here, we report that adult ablation of the ASD-associated CHD8 in astrocytes attenuates reactive gliosis via remodeling chromatin accessibility, changing gene expression. Conditional Chd8 deletion in astrocytes, but not microglia, suppresses reactive gliosis by impeding astrocyte proliferation and morphological elaboration. Astrocyte Chd8 ablation alleviates lipopolysaccharide-induced neuroinflammation and septic-associated hypothermia in mice. Astrocytic CHD8 plays an important role in neuroinflammation by altering the chromatin landscape, regulating metabolic and lipid-associated pathways, and astrocyte-microglia crosstalk. Moreover, we show that reactive gliosis can be directly mitigated in vivo using an AAV-mediated Chd8 gene editing strategy. These findings uncover a role of ASD-associated CHD8 in the adult brain, which may warrant future exploration of targeting epigenetic pathways in reactive gliosis and neuroinflammation in injury and neurological diseases.
Overall Design
Bulk tissue RNA seq from cortex samples of mice with astrocyte specific Chd8 cKO after LPS or Saline injections, compared to controls. This designed was chosen to probe for transcriptional changes after Chd8 cKO in astrocytes at the baseline and during neuroinflammation
Analysis (5 steps)
View Data Processing- Reads were downsampled to an equivalent number of reads per sample using seqtk sample (version 1.2)
- Adaptors were trimmed with trimmomatic (version 0.39) [1] with the options ILLUMINACLIP:Trimmomatic-0.39/adapters/NexteraPE-PE.fa:2:30:10 LEADING:3 TRAILING:3 SLIDINGWINDOW:4:25 MINLEN:24
- Reads were then aligned to the mouse genome (mm10) with bowtie2 (version 2.4.4) using default parameters
- Duplicates were removed with picard through gatk MarkDuplicates (version 4.2.5.0)
- Peak detection was performed using macs2 callpeak (version 2.2.7.1) with the parameters â-g mm --qvalue 0.05 --shift 100 --extsize 200 --format BAMPE --keep-dup=all --cutoff-analysis âbdgââ.
