#PROJECT
PR:PROJECT_TITLE                 	Mayo Pilot and Feasibility: Targeting Myelin Metabolism to Enhance Recovery of
PR:PROJECT_TITLE                 	Function after SCI
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	The loss of myelin, degeneration of the myelin producing oligodendroglia and
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	impaired remyelination are essential features of traumatic spinal cord injury
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	(SCI) that significantly limit patient recovery of function. The lipid rich
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	composition of myelin, including exceptionally high levels of saturated fatty
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	acids, underlie its essential physiological roles, including its structural and
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	signaling properties and electrical insulation of axons to facilitate the
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	conduction of nerve impulses. The myelin sheaths also provide metabolic support
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	to the axons they wrap, and myelin health is therefore essential to the
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	maintenance of axon integrity and function in the brain and spinal cord. The
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	primary goal of this Pilot Proposal to the Mayo Clinic Metabolomics Core is to
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	integrate highly sensitive metabolomics liquid chromatography-tandem mass
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) assays to quantify the lipid composition of the myelin
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	membrane, with our conventional neurobehavioral approaches, enabling us to
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	explore the metabolic basis of new interventions capable of promoting myelin
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	regeneration and restoration of patient function. Metabolomics Core expertise in
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (NMR) based evaluation of key metabolites
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	involved in CNS injury and repair (N-acetyl-L-aspartate, choline, myo-inositol,
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	glucose/ glutamine and lactate) will also be applied to strengthen our
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	mechanistic understanding of myelin injury and repair. Specifically, utilizing
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	these innovative approaches we will test a novel hypothesis driven by new
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	preliminary findings that the levels of dietary fatty acids can be optimized
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	alone, or in combination with exercise training, to facilitate myelin
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	regeneration and recovery of neurobehavioral function after injury to the adult
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	spinal cord. In Aim 1, we will determine whether alterations in dietary fat,
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	including saturated fat or omega-3 fatty acids, facilitate restoration of the
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	myelin membrane and metabolite signatures of central nervous system repair after
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	experimental SCI in adult mice. In Aim 2, we will determine whether exercise
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	training alone or in combination with dietary fatty acid supplementation fosters
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	myelin regeneration and recovery of function after experimental SCI. The
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	proposed studies will leverage the expertise of the Mayo Metabolomics Core with
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	that of Dr. Scarisbrick (Mayo) in myelin biology and Dr. Gomez Pinilla (UCLA) in
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	central nervous system plasticity to investigate whether two highly targetable
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	lifestyle variables, that is diet and exercise, can be modulated to improve
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	myelin metabolism and functional recovery after SCI.

#STUDY
ST:STUDY_TITLE                   	Targeted NEFA Panel of Myelin to Enhance Recovery of Function after SCI
ST:STUDY_SUMMARY                 	Tissue is from adult mouse spinal cord (SC). We are submitting these samples for
ST:STUDY_SUMMARY                 	Untargeted Profiling (unbiased metabolomics assay) and for lipid analysis. The
ST:STUDY_SUMMARY                 	lipid assays we request are 1) free fatty acid composition of lipids; 2) free
ST:STUDY_SUMMARY                 	fatty acid panel; 3) cholesterol concentration (free and bound); 4) Ceramides,
ST:STUDY_SUMMARY                 	including galactosyl and glucosyl; 5) sphingomyelin. The Untargeted profiling is
ST:STUDY_SUMMARY                 	our top priority, followed by the lipid assays as listed. All samples were snap
ST:STUDY_SUMMARY                 	frozen at the point of harvest and approximate weights are provided. The samples
ST:STUDY_SUMMARY                 	are submitted as intact pieces of tissue. There are 20 samples total, n=5 for
ST:STUDY_SUMMARY                 	each group that includes LF (low fat diet); HF (high fat diet); HFHS (high fat
ST:STUDY_SUMMARY                 	high sucrose diet); and Keto (ketogenic diet).

#COLLECTION
CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY            	Uninjured or SCI mice will be randomly assigned to one of four groups, LF (low
CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY            	fat diet); HF (high fat diet); HFHS (high fat high sucrose diet); and Keto
CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY            	(ketogenic diet). All diets will be obtained from Research Diets, NJ USA43,45.
CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY            	Dietary fat supplementation will be initiated at 1 week after SCI. This time
CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY            	point for intervention was chosen to provide a meaningful timeframe for clinical
CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY            	translation. Also, a 1 week period will allow time for mice to recover prior to
CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY            	providing access to wheel running (Aim 2). The impact of dietary fat
CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY            	supplementation on myelin metabolism will be examined after a period of 7 weeks,
CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY            	including determination of (i) the lipid profile of the myelin membrane using
CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY            	LC/MS/MS; and (ii) metabolic markers of spinal cord metabolism by NMR. Results
CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY            	will be correlated with (iii) cellular and molecular markers of spinal cord
CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY            	pathophysiology including the appearance of OPCs, oligodendroglia and myelin,
CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY            	axon health, astrogliosis and inflammation; and (iv) the extent of sensorimotor
CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY            	recovery. (v) In addition, to gauge the impact of the dietary fat on systemic
CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY            	metabolic status, Insulin and Glucose Resistance Tests will be performed at 7
CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY            	weeks. Food intake (g/day) and body weight gain (% initial weight) will be
CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY            	measured daily until the endpoint of each experiment. Mice will be housed
CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY            	individually in a temperature-controlled facility with a 12:12-h light-dark
CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY            	cycle and ad libitum access to each diet and water. A Power Analysis was
CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY            	performed based on histological outcomes in mice with contusion compression
CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY            	injury. To detect a difference between groups of 20%, which would very
CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY            	meaningful, a group size of 8 will be needed to achieve a power of 0.85. An
CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY            	additional 2 mice per group has been added to account for mortality. The Mayo
CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY            	Clinic Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee has approved of the proposed
CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY            	studies.
#TREATMENT
TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY             	To test the hypothesis that optimizing dietary fat will facilitate myelin repair
TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY             	after SCI, the diet of uninjured adult female C57BL6/J mice (12 week, 22-25g,
TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY             	Jackson), or those with experimental contusion-compression SCI of the
TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY             	lumbosacral spinal cord (L2-L3) (Fejota Clip 3g Force, applied for 30s)32,47
TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY             	will be supplemented with saturated fat. The 3g Clip produces moderate SCI
TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY             	including demyelination and clinical impairment and we recently published a
TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY             	detailed methodology. At 1 week after injury, the 3g injured mice are expected
TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY             	to have an average Basso Mouse Scale score (BMS)=5 on a 9 point scale such that
TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY             	they have frequent plantar stepping with no or some coordination. This level of
TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY             	impairment was chosen to provide a sufficient window to observe recovery, and to
TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY             	be at a level compatible with examination of exercise training by wheel running
TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY             	(Aim 2).
#SAMPLEPREP
SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY            	"NEFA of mouse spinal cord Lipids will be quantified in myelin isolated in high
SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY            	yield and purity by subcellular fractionation from the lumbosacral spinal cord.
SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY            	While there are no absolutely ‘myelin-specific’ lipids, galactocerebroside
SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY            	is the most typical of myelin in the adult nervous system being directly
SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY            	proportional to the amount of myelin. Sulfatide is another galactolipid enriched
SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY            	in myelin. Together with cholesterol, these form 78% of the total amount of
SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY            	lipid in the myelin membrane and each will be quantified using LC/MS/MS. A
SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY            	highly sensitive assay for galactocerebroside was recently established by the
SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY            	Mayo Metabolomics Core and can be implemented immediately. The LC/MS/MS panel
SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY            	for free fatty acids, including the very long chain fatty acids found in myelin
SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY            	is also routinely performed by the Core. Cholesterol will be quantified using an
SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY            	NMR-based approach by the Mayo Dept. of Laboratory Medicine Clinical Core.
SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY            	Additionally, we have a plan in place with the Metabolomics Core to develop
SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY            	LC/MS/MS assays for sulfatide and sphingomyelin during the Pilot proposal.
SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY            	Having quantitative assays for each of these key myelin lipids will facilitate
SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY            	our goal to comprehensively profile myelin lipid metabolism and will form
SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY            	foundational assays for a future NIH grant focused on myelin metabolism."
