In vitro ischemia triggers a transcriptional response to down-regulate synaptic proteins in hippocampal neurons.

ABSTRACT: The present study has used whole-rat genome microarray expression profiling to identify genes whose expression is significantly altered in hippocampal neuronal cultures submitted to oxygen and glucose deprivation (OGD), an established in vitro model for cerebral global ischemia that is suitable for investigations at the molecular level. To do so, total RNA was extracted from hippocampal neuronal cultures at an early (7h) and delayed (24h) time point after OGD, as well as from control neurons. Analysis of gene ontology showed that OGD followed by 7h or 24h of recovery induces changes in the expression levels of genes related with inflammation, response to oxidative stress, metabolism, apoptosis, synaptic proteins and ion channels and, importantly, genes that show different expression levels are mainly specific to one of the two time points of recovery analyzed. The expression levels of several genes were confirmed by qPCR and were in good agreement with the microarray data, showing that the combined use of the OGD model and the microarray technology can be a useful tool for the study molecular mechanisms contributing to the neuronal demise after transient global ischemia. Ischemia induced gene expression in primary hippocampal neuronal rat cultures was measured at 7 and 24 hours after exposure to Oxygen and Glucose deprivation (OGD). Three independent experiments were performed at each time (7 or 24 hours) as independent biological replicates.

Project description:Abstract Background: Cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) frequently caused the late-onset neuronal damage. Breviscapine has a promote in autophagy of microvascular endothelial cells in I/R and it can inhibit the oxidative damage and apoptosis. However, the mediation mechanism of breviscapine on neuronal cell death is unclear. Methods: Firstly, transcriptome sequencing was performed on three groups of mice neuronal normal group (Control group), oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation group (OGD/R group) and breviscapine administration group (Therapy group). Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between OGD/R and Control groups, and between Therapy and OGD/R groups were obtained by limma package. The N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methylation related DEGs were selected out by the Pearson correlation analysis. Then, prediction and confirmation of drug targets were performed by Swiss Target Prediction and UniProt Knowledgebase (UniProtKB) datebase, and key genes were obtained by Pearson correlation analysis between m6A-related DEGs and drug target genes. Next, gene set enrichment (GSEA) analysis and Ingenuity pathway analysis (IPA) were used to obtain the pathways of key genes. Finally, a circRNA-miRNA-mRNA network was constructed based on the mRNAs, circRNAs and miRNAs. Results: 2250 DEGs between OGD/R and Control groups and 757 DEGs between Therapy and OGD/R groups were selected out by differential analysis. A total of 7 m6A related DEGs including Arl4d, Gm10653, Gm1113, Kcns3, Olfml2a, Stk26 and Tfcp2l1 were obtained by Pearson correlation analysis. Four key genes (Tfcp2l1, Kcns3, Olfml2a and Arl4d) were acquired, and GSEA showed that these key genes were significantly participated in DNA repair, e2f targets and g2m checkpoint. IPA revealed that Tfcp2l1 played a significant role in human embryonic stem cell pluripotency. The circRNA-miRNA-mRNA network showed that the mmu_circ_0001258 regulated the Tfcp2l1 by mmu-miR-301b-3p. Conclusions: In conclusion, four key genes including Tfcp2l1, Kcns3, Olfml2a and Arl4d significantly associated with the treatment of OGD/R by breviscapine were acquired, which would provide a theoretical basis for clinical trials.

Project description:Neurogenesis is a pro-survival process that comprises of dendritic and axonal growth, synaptogenesis, synaptic and neuronal pruning. These complex processes are determined by temporal gene expression during development, which is in turn tightly regulated by long non-coding RNAs and microRNAs. In this study, we investigated the processes implicated in the maturation of primary neuronal cultures based on RNA expression profiling. Correlation between neuron specific gene ontologies of mRNA and non-coding RNAs identified direct regulation of axonogenesis and dendritogenesis. Temporally regulated mRNA and their associated long non-coding RNAs were significantly overrepresented in proliferation and differentiation associated signalling, cell adhesion molecules and neurotrophin signalling pathways during neuronal maturation. Long non-coding RNAs associated with Axin2, Cntn1, Ncam1, Negr1, Ntrk2, Nrxn1 and Sh2b3 displayed an inverse expression profile to their mRNA whereas long non-coding RNA -mRNA pairs for Kit, Prkcb and Ralgds displayed similar expression profiles. These genes were also predicted targets of the altered miRNAs, miR-124, -128, -129-5p, -203, -218, -290-5p, -326, -329, -377 and -495. These microRNAs particularly regulate the cell adhesion molecules, Cntn1, Ncam1, Negr1 and Nrxn1 that determine axonogenesis and dendritogenesis, supporting the observed co-regulation of these biological processes by non-coding RNAs. Verification of expression of these long non-coding RNA-mRNA pairs in an in vitro model of ischemic-reperfusion injury showed an inverse expression profile, thus confirming their role(s) in maintenance of the neuronal structure and function. This neuronal transcriptome (mRNAs, lncRNAs, miRNAs) is in turn orchestrated by C/EBPM-NM-1/M-NM-2 transcription factors and CTCF, thereby governing intricate control of neuronal development. mRNA and long non-coding RNA expression profiling of maturing primary cortical neurons from E15 mouse embryos and neurons subjected to oxygen-glucose deprivation. Maturing neurons were harvested on Days 2, 4, 6 and 8. Neurons on Day 6 were subjected to oxygen-glucose deprivation for different time periods and 24 hours reperfusion before being harvested.
