Interpretable deep learning framework for understanding molecular changes in human brains with Alzheimer's disease: implications for microglia activation and sex differences

3 months 2 weeks ago
The utilization of artificial intelligence in studying the dysregulation of gene expression in Alzheimer's disease (AD) affected brain tissues remains underexplored, particularly in delineating common and specific transcriptomic signatures across different brain regions implicated in AD-related cellular and molecular processes, which could help illuminate novel disease biology for biomarker and target discovery. Herein we developed a deep learning framework, which consisted of multi-layer...

Tau PET positivity in individuals with and without cognitive impairment varies with age, amyloid-β status, APOE genotype and sex

3 months 2 weeks ago
Tau positron emission tomography (PET) imaging allows in vivo detection of tau proteinopathy in Alzheimer's disease, which is associated with neurodegeneration and cognitive decline. Understanding how demographic, clinical and genetic factors relate to tau PET positivity will facilitate its use for clinical practice and research. Here we conducted an analysis of 42 cohorts worldwide (N = 12,048), including 7,394 cognitively unimpaired (CU) participants, 2,177 participants with mild cognitive...

Inactivation of Histone Chaperone HIRA Unmasks a Link Between Normal Embryonic Development of Melanoblasts and Maintenance of Adult Melanocyte Stem Cells

3 months 2 weeks ago
Evidence indicates that the integrity of in utero development influences late life healthy or unhealthy aging; however, specific links between them are unclear. Histone chaperone HIRA is thought to play a role in both life stages, and here, we explore this role using the murine pigmentary system by investigating and comparing the effects of its lineage-specific knockout, either conditionally during embryogenesis or postnatally. Embryonic knockout of Hira in tyrosinase+ neural crest-derived...

LIN-39 is a neuron-specific developmental determinant of longevity in Caenorhabditis elegans with reduced insulin signaling

3 months 2 weeks ago
The nuclear chromatin landscape changes with age. Here, we investigate whether chromatin alterations distinguish also animals with unusual aging rates, focusing on Caenorhabditis elegans with reduced insulin/IGF-like signaling (IIS), i.e., daf-2 mutants. In these animals, enhancer regions that close with age tend to open and become transcriptionally active. We identify LIN-39 as a transcription factor (TF) binding these regions and being required for the longevity of daf-2 mutants. LIN-39 acts...

Mitochondrial origins of the pressure to sleep

3 months 2 weeks ago
To gain a comprehensive, unbiased perspective on molecular changes in the brain that may underlie the need for sleep, we have characterized the transcriptomes of single cells isolated from rested and sleep-deprived flies. Here we report that transcripts upregulated after sleep deprivation, in sleep-control neurons projecting to the dorsal fan-shaped body^(1,2) (dFBNs) but not ubiquitously in the brain, encode almost exclusively proteins with roles in mitochondrial respiration and ATP synthesis....
