A stem cell-based toolkit to model Angelman syndrome caused by paternal uniparental disomy of chromosome 15
Human Cell 2025 Sep
Abstract
Angelman syndrome is a rare neurodevelopmental disorder caused by the loss of function of the maternally inherited UBE3A gene within the chr15q11-q13 region. This gene is subjected to a tissue-specific form of genomic imprinting leading to the silencing of the paternal allele in neurons. Angelman syndrome can result from various (epi)genetic mechanisms, with paternal uniparental disomy of chromosome 15 (patUPD15) being one of the rarest and least studied due to the absence of suitable models. To address this gap, we generated three independent induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines from individuals with Angelman syndrome caused by patUPD15, alongside genetically matched unaffected familial controls. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were reprogrammed into iPSCs using a non-integrative Sendai virus-based approach expressing the Yamanaka factors. All iPSC lines underwent rigorous quality control, confirming stem cell identity, trilineage differentiation potential, and genetic and epigenetic integrity. This newly established iPSC toolkit provides a powerful platform to investigate the molecular underpinnings of Angelman syndrome caused by patUPD15, paving the way for future translational research and therapeutic development tailored for this understudied form of the disorder.

Functional characterization of the MED12 p.Arg1138Trp variant in females: implications for neural development and disease mechanism
Molecular Medicine 2025 Sep
Abstract
Seven female individuals with multiple congenital anomalies, developmental delay and/or intellectual disability have been found to have a genetic variant of uncertain significance in the mediator complex subunit 12 gene ( MED12 c.3412C>T, p.Arg1138Trp). The functional consequence of this genetic variant in disease is undetermined, and insight into disease mechanism is required. We identified a de novo MED12 p.Arg1138Trp variant in a female patient and compared disease phenotypes with six female individuals identified in the literature. To investigate affected biological pathways, we derived two induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines from the patient: one expressing wildtype MED12 and the other expressing the MED12 p.Arg1138Trp variant. We performed neural disease modelling, transcriptomics and protein analysis, comparing healthy and variant cells. When comparing the two cell lines, we identified altered gene expression in neural cells expressing the variant, including genes regulating RNA polymerase II activity, transcription, pre-mRNA processing, and neural development. We also noted a decrease in MED12L expression. Pathway analysis indicated temporal delays in axon development, forebrain differentiation, and neural cell specification with significant upregulation of pre-ribosome complex gene pathways. In a human neural model, expression of MED12 p.Arg1138Trp altered neural cell development and dysregulated the pre-ribosome complex providing functional evidence of disease aetiology and mechanism in MED12-related disorders. The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1186/s10020-025-01365-5.
Single-cell RNA-sequencing reveals early mitochondrial dysfunction unique to motor neurons shared across FUS- and TARDBP-ALS
Nature Communications 2025 May
Abstract
Mutations in FUS and TARDBP cause amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), but the precise mechanisms of selective motor neuron degeneration remain unresolved. To address if pathomechanisms are shared across mutations and related to either gain- or loss-of-function, we performed single-cell RNA sequencing across isogenic induced pluripotent stem cell-derived neuron types, harbouring FUSÂ P525L, FUSÂ R495X, TARDBPÂ M337V mutations or FUS knockout. Transcriptional changes were far more pronounced in motor neurons than interneurons. About 20% of uniquely dysregulated motor neuron transcripts were shared across FUS mutations, half from gain-of-function. Most indicated mitochondrial impairments, with attenuated pathways shared with mutant TARDBP M337V as well as C9orf72-ALS patient motor neurons. Mitochondrial motility was impaired in ALS motor axons, even with nuclear localized FUS mutants, demonstrating shared toxic gain-of-function mechanisms across FUS- and TARDBP-ALS, uncoupled from protein mislocalization. These early mitochondrial dysfunctions unique to motor neurons may affect survival and represent therapeutic targets in ALS. In this study, the authors performed single-cell RNA-sequencing across various isogenic mutant FUS and TDP43 neurons. Mitochondrial dysfunction emerged as pathway unique to motor neurons demonstrating shared toxic gain of-function mechanisms, uncoupled from protein mislocalization.
