PG - 559 LID - 10.1038/s41419-022-05010-5 [doi] LID - 559 AB - Primary cilia dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare genetic disease caused by ciliary structural or functional defects. It causes severe outcomes in patients, including recurrent upper and lower airway infections, progressive lung failure, and randomization of heterotaxy. To date, although 50 genes have been shown to be responsible for PCD, the etiology remains elusive. Meanwhile, owing to the lack of a model mimicking the pathogenesis that can be used as a drug screening platform, thereby slowing the development of related therapies. In the current study, we identified compound mutation of DNAH9 in a patient with PCD with the following clinical features: recurrent respiratory tract infections, low lung function, and ultrastructural defects of the outer dynein arms (ODAs). Bioinformatic analysis, structure simulation assay, and western blot analysis showed that the mutations affected the structure and expression of DNAH9 protein. Dnah9 knock-down (KD) mice recapitulated the patient phenotypes, including low lung function, mucin accumulation, and increased immune cell infiltration. Immunostaining, western blot, and co-immunoprecipitation analyses were performed to clarify that DNAH9 interacted with CCDC114/GAS8 and diminished their protein levels. Furthermore, we constructed an airway organoid of Dnah9 KD mice and discovered that it could mimic the key features of the PCD phenotypes. We then used organoid as a drug screening model to identify mitochondrial-targeting drugs that can partially elevate cilia beating in Dnah9 KD organoid. Collectively, our results demonstrated that Dnah9 KD mice and an organoid model can recapture the clinical features of patients with PCD and provide an excellent drug screening platform for human ciliopathies.
