Abstract

During demyelination, lipid-rich myelin debris is released in the central nervous system (CNS) and must be phagocytosed and processed before new myelin can form. Although myelin comprises over 70% lipids, relatively little is known about how the CNS lipidome changes during demyelination and remyelination. In this study, we obtained a longitudinal lipidomic profile of the brain, spinal cord, and serum using a genetic mouse model of demyelination, known as -iCKO-. The mass spectrometry data is available at the Metabolomics Workbench, where it has been assigned Study ID ST002958. This model has distinct phases of demyelination and remyelination over the course of 24 weeks, in which loss of motor function peaks during demyelination. Using principal component analysis (PCA) and volcano plots, we have demonstrated that the brain and spinal cord have different remyelination capabilities and that this is reflected in different lipidomic profiles over time. We observed that plasmalogens (ether-linked phosphatidylserine and ether-linked phosphatidylcholine) were elevated specifically during the early stages of active demyelination. In addition, we identified lipids in the brain that were altered when mice were treated with a remyelinating drug, which may be CNS biomarkers of remyelination. The results of this study provide new insights into how the lipidome changes in response to demyelination, which will enable future studies to elucidate mechanisms of lipid regulation during demyelination and remyelination.

摘要

在脱髓鞘过程中,富含脂质的髓鞘碎片会在中枢神经系统 (CNS) 中释放出来,并且必须在形成新髓鞘之前被吞噬和处理。尽管髓鞘包含超过 70%的脂质,但关于中枢神经系统脂质组在脱髓鞘和髓鞘再生过程中如何变化的知识相对较少。在这项研究中,我们使用一种称为 -iCKO- 的脱髓鞘遗传小鼠模型获得了大脑、脊髓和血清的纵向脂质组谱。该质谱数据可在代谢组学工作台上获得,其已被分配研究 ID ST002958。该模型在 24 周的时间内经历了明显的脱髓鞘和髓鞘再生阶段,在脱髓鞘过程中运动功能丧失达到高峰。通过主成分分析 (PCA) 和火山图,我们证明了大脑和脊髓具有不同的髓鞘再生能力,这反映在不同的脂质组谱随时间的变化。我们观察到,在活跃的脱髓鞘早期,醚连接的磷脂酰丝氨酸和醚连接的磷脂酰胆碱等质体 (plasmalogens) 会升高。此外,我们还鉴定了在对髓鞘再生药物进行治疗时大脑中发生改变的脂质,这些脂质可能是髓鞘再生的中枢神经系统生物标志物。这项研究的结果提供了关于脂质组如何响应脱髓鞘而变化的新见解,这将使未来的研究能够阐明脱髓鞘和髓鞘再生过程中脂质调节的机制。
