#PROJECT
PR:PROJECT_TITLE                 	Transgenic Parkinson's Mice Following Immunotherapy
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	An UHPLC-HRMS Metabolomics and Lipidomics Study of Stool from Transgenic
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	Parkinson's disease Mice Following Immunotherapy. Parkinson’s disease (PD) is
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	characterized by the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	compacta of the brain as well as degeneration of motor and non-motor circuitry.
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	The cause of neuronal death is currently unknown, although chronic
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	neuroinflammation, aggregated α-synuclein, mitochondrial dysfunction and
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	oxidative stress have all been implicated. Gliosis has been shown to exacerbate
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	neuroinflammation via secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines, and there is a
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	subsequent infiltration of T lymphocytes (T-cells), into the brain of PD
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	patients. Using liquid chromatography-high resolution mass spectrometry
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	(LC-HRMS), we have observed metabolomic changes in stool samples, thought to be
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	associated with the potential disease-modifying effect of an immunotherapy
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	administered to transgenic Parkinsonian (A53T) mice. Significant elevations
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	(p<0.05) in metabolites associated with immune response (taurine, histamine and
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	its methylated product, 3-methylhistamine) are identified as being higher in the
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	mice undergoing immunotherapy. Furthermore, a reduction in triacylglycerols (TG)
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	and diacylglyceols (DG) expression in stool following immunotherapy suggests a
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	regulation of lipid breakdown or biosynthesis with the vaccine. These
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	“omics” markers (among others reported in this article) along with weight
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	gain and increased life expectancy suggest that the immunotherapy is positively
PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY               	modifying the disease state.

#COLLECTION
CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY            	Stool samples were collected at 12 months, while the mice were under clinical
CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY            	observation. Stool was the chosen sample of analysis because of its ease of
CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY            	collection.

CO:STORAGE_CONDITIONS            	-80℃
#TREATMENT
TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY             	All animal procedures were approved by UF IACUC, at the University of Florida.
TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY             	Animals were housed in a 12h light-12h dark schedule, and were provided with a
TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY             	diet of Envigo Mouse Chow (Huntingdon, England) and water ad libitum. Animals
TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY             	were housed in groups, including 3 PD and 3 vaccinated PD mice. Female,
TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY             	age-matched heterozygous M83 mice were used in all experiments. The
TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY             	immunotherapy was administered at 6 months, prior to the development of any
TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY             	overt physical symptoms of PD. Briefly, dendritic cells (DC) were pulsed with
TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY             	α-syn (A53T) RNA to generate DC vaccine, and A53T α-syn-specific T cells were
TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY             	generated ex vivo for adoptive transfer into M83 mice expressing the α-syn
TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY             	mutation. A53T α-syn-specific T cells were adoptively transferred intravenously
TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY             	after 5-7d of co-culture via a single injection of 107 autologous ex
TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY             	vivo–expanded T cells.
