Microarray profiling of WT or PDE10A KO mice treated with vehicle or a PDE10 inhibitor

ABSTRACT: Inhibition of phosphodiesterase 10A (PDE10A) promotes cyclic nucleotide signaling, increases striatal activation, and decreases behavioral activity. Enhanced cyclic nucleotide signaling is a well established route to producing changes in gene expression. We hypothesized that chronic suppression of PDE10A activity would have significant effects on gene expression in the striatum. A comparison of the expression profile of PDE10A knockout (KO) mice and wild-type mice after chronic PDE10A inhibition revealed altered expression of 19 overlapping genes with few significant changes outside the striatum or after administration of a PDE10A inhibitor to KO animals. Chronic inhibition of PDE10A produced up-regulation of mRNAs encoding genes that included prodynorphin, synaptotagmin10, phosphodiesterase 1C, glutamate decarboxylase 1, and diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase and a down-regulation of mRNAs encoding choline acetyltransferase and Kv1.6, suggesting long-term suppression of the PDE10A enzyme is consistent with altered striatal excitability and potential utility as a antipsychotic therapy. In addition, up-regulation of mRNAs encoding histone 3 (H3) and down-regulation of histone deacetylase 4, follistatin, and claspin mRNAs suggests activation of molecular cascades capable of neuroprotection. We used lentiviral delivery of cAMP response element (CRE)-luciferase reporter constructs into the striatum and live animal imaging of 2-{4-[-pyridin-4-yl-1-(2,2,2-trifluoro-ethyl)-1H-pyrazol-3-yl]-phenoxymethyl}-quinoline succinic acid (TP-10)-induced luciferase activity to further demonstrate PDE10 inhibition results in CRE-mediated transcription. Consistent with potential neuroprotective cascades, we also demonstrate phosphorylation of mitogen- and stress-activated kinase 1 and H3 in vivo after TP-10 treatment. The observed changes in signaling and gene expression are predicted to provide neuroprotective effects in models of Huntington's disease. n=4-6 per group. WT mice used as a control for PDE10A KO mice, vehicle control for PDE10A inhibitor treatment.

Project description:Schizophrenia is a chronic mental illness that is among the world’s top twenty causes of years lost to disability according to the global burden of disease 2019 (10.1016/S0140-6736(20)30925-9). Positive symptoms, including hallucinations and delusions in schizophrenia, often improved with conventional antipsychotic medication, which exerts its therapeutic effects mainly by antagonizing the dopamine D2 receptors. Haloperidol was one of the first antipsychotics to be approved by the FDA, and it is since then widely used for the treatment of psychotic disorders including schizophrenia. Despite its high affinity for dopamine D2 receptors, it has been shown that haloperidol interacts with other receptors, such as dopamine D3 and D4 receptors, α-adrenergic receptor 1 and to some extent 5HT2A. Dopaminergic dysfunction is known for decades to be involved in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia, but only recently has the striatum been implicated in such devasting disorder. The dorsal striatum is a brain region involved in motor, cognitive and motivational functions, highly impacted by antipsychotic drugs. Particularly, it is well-recognized that chronic haloperidol administration has a tremendous impact on striatal synaptic plasticity, by changing the volume of dorsal striatum, the number of striatal neurons and the synaptic morphology, both in humans and rodents. Despite the overwhelming evidence correlating chronic haloperidol administration with striatum alterations, so far, the exact striatal synaptic mechanism by which haloperidol exerts its beneficial effects remains unclear. Although dopamine D2 receptor blockade can be achieved within hours after haloperidol administration, the onset of action is delayed by weeks. Thus, it is crucial to better understand the neuronal mechanism behind the delayed clinical effects of haloperidol to improve the treatment outcome. Using proteomic analysis and whole-cell patch-clamp recordings (Figure 1), we demonstrate for the first time a possible mechanism by which haloperidol may be contributing to its beneficial long-term therapeutic effect. Specifically, we demonstrate that modulation of D2-MSNs by chronic haloperidol administration leads to a slow remodeling of D1-neurons that may be responsible for its positive therapeutic effects.
