    • Apart from well-defined factors in neuronal cells1, only a few reports consider that the variability of sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) progression can depend on less-defined contributions from glia2,3 and blood vessels4. In this study we use an expression-weighted cell-type enrichment method to infer cell activity in spinal cord samples from patients with sporadic ALS and mouse models of this disease. Here we report that patients with sporadic ALS present cell activity patterns consistent with two mouse models in which enrichments of vascular cell genes preceded microglial response. Notably, during the presymptomatic stage, perivascular fibroblast cells showed the strongest gene enrichments, and their marker proteins SPP1 and COL6A1 accumulated in enlarged perivascular spaces in patients with sporadic ALS. Moreover, in plasma of 574 patients with ALS from four independent cohorts, increased levels of SPP1 at disease diagnosis repeatedly predicted shorter survival with stronger effect than the established risk factors of bulbar onset or neurofilament levels in cerebrospinal fluid. We propose that the activity of the recently discovered perivascular fibroblast can predict survival of patients with ALS and provide a new conceptual framework to re-evaluate definitions of ALS etiology.

  • Collagen VI : Role in synaptic transmission and seizure-related excitability
  • 2024
  • Ingår i: Experimental Neurology. - 0014-4886. ; 380
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Collagen VI (Col-VI) is an extracellular matrix protein primarily known for its bridging role in connective tissues that has been suggested to play a neuroprotective role. In the present study we report increased mRNA and protein expression of Col-VI in the hippocampus and cortex at a late stage of epileptogenesis in a post-status epilepticus (SE) model of epilepsy and in brain tissue from patients with epilepsy. We further present a novel finding that exposure of mouse hippocampal slices to Col-VI augments paired-pulse facilitation in Schaffer collateral-CA1 excitatory synapses indicating decreased release probability of glutamate. In line with this finding, lack of Col-VI expression in the knock-out mice show paired-pulse depression in these synapses, suggesting increased release probability of glutamate. In addition, we observed dynamic changes in Col-VI blood plasma levels in rats after Kainate-induced SE, and increased levels of Col-VI mRNA and protein in autopsy or postmortem brain of humans suffering from epilepsy. Thus, our data indicate that elevated levels of ColVI following seizures leads to attenuated glutamatergic transmission, ultimately resulting in less overall network excitability. Presumably, increased Col-VI may act as part of endogenous compensatory mechanism against enhanced excitability during epileptogenic processes in the hippocampus, and could be further investigated as a potential functional biomarker of epileptogenesis, and/or a novel target for therapeutic intervention.
