Comparative microarray analysis of NaV1.8-expressing DRG neurons and cold-sensitive non-NaV1.8-expressing DRG neurons

ABSTRACT: The vast majority of cold sensitive DRG neurons from mice do not express the voltage-gated sodium channel NaV1.8. Therefore, we aimed to compare the molecular profiles of NaV1.8 and non-NaV1.8-expressing neurons using microarray analysis. Fluorescent activated cell sorting was performed at 4 degrees centigrade on acutely dissociated DRG neurons from mice expressing NaV1.8-Cre, Pirt-GCaMP3 and a Cre-dependent global reporter (td tomato). NaV1.8-expressing neurons were sorted based on their reporter fluorescence (td tomato; red) and putative cold sensing neurons were sorted based on their GCaMP3 fluorescence at 4 degrees centigrade and absence of Cre-dependent reporter fluorescence. A total of three mice were used (samples one, two and three) with GCaMP3 only and NaV1.8-expressing neurons forming two relative populations within each sample (eg. GC3 one is the experimental counterpart of Tom one).

Expression data from FACS purified nociceptor neurons from peripheral sensory ganglia

Project description:The goal of this study was to analyze global gene expression in specific populations of nociceptor sensory neurons, the neurons that detect damaging/noxious stimuli. The dorsal root ganglia (DRG), trigeminal ganglia, and nodose ganglia are anatomically distinct peripheral sensory ganglia that contain nociceptors which innervate skin, gut, lungs, and other distinct organ tissues. We used flow cytometry to purify nociceptors from these ganglia and profiled their global gene expression signatures to compare gene expression between these different anatomically distinct nociceptors. Nav1.8-Cre were bred with Rosa26-TdTomato to generate Nav1.8-Cre/R26-TdTomato reporter progeny, where all peripheral nociceptor neurons are genetically marked with red fluroescence due to specific expression of the TTX- resistant sodium channel Nav1.8. Lumbar region dorsal root ganglia (DRG), trigeminal ganglia, and nodose ganglia were dissected from mice (3 mice were pooled/sample). Highly red fluorescent neurons were Facs purified, RNA extracted, and processed for microarray analysis.

Whole transcriptome analysis of FACS purified somatosensory neuron subtypes and whole dorsal root ganglia tissue

Project description:The goal of this study was to analyze global gene expression in specific populations of somatosensory neurons in the periphery, including major, non-overlapping populations that include nociceptors, pruriceptors, and prorioceptors. The mammalian somatosensory nervous system encodes the perception of specific environmental stimuli. The dorsal root ganglion (DRG) contains distinct somatosensory neuron subtypes that innervate diverse peripheral tissues, mediating the detection of thermal, mechanical, proprioceptive, pruriceptive, and nociceptive stimuli. We purified discrete subtypes of mouse DRG somatosensory neurons by flow cytometry using fluorescently labeled mouse lines (SNS-Cre/TdTomato, Parv-Cre/TdTomato) in combination with Isolectin B4-FITC surface staining (IB4). This allowed identification of transcriptional differences between these major populations, revealing enrichment of voltage-gated ion channels, TRP channels, G-protein coupled receptors, transcription factors, and other functionally important classes of genes within specific somatosensory neuron subsets. SNS-Cre mice were bred with Rosa26-TdTomato mice to generate SNS-Cre/TdTomato reporter mice. Parv-Cre mice were bred with Rosa26-TdTomato mice to generate Parv-Cre/TdTomato mice. Isolectin B4-FITC was used to stain the surface of SNS-Cre/TdTomato reporter mice. We used these strategies of fluorescent labeling to purify distinct murine sensory neuron subsets from the dorsal root ganglia (DRG) by fluorescence activated cell sorting (FACS). Neurons were sorted directly in Qiazol for total RNA extraction and microarray analysis. Whole DRG tissue was also included for transcriptome analysis to compare with purified neuronal populations.

Transcription profiling of mouse dorsal root ganglia after diphtheria-toxin deletion of the Nav1.8-expressing cells using the cre/loxP system

Project description:Comparison of transcript levels after diphtheria-toxin deletion of the Nav1.8-expressing cells using the cre/loxP system.<br> Pain requires input from nociceptors which are specialised peripheral sensory neurons in dorsal root ganglia (DRG). To explore the nociceptor-specific mRNA profiles, we used microarray analysis to examine the altered repertoire of genes expressed in DRG from mice depleted of Nav1.8-expressing neurons which are mainly nociceptors. To generate the animal, a Nav1.8 knock-in Cre-expressing mouse (Nav1.8-Cre) was used to excise a floxed stop upstream of globally expressed diphtheria toxin A-subunit gene (ROSA26-eGFP-DTA). By crossing heterozygous Cre mice with homozygous toxin-expressing floxed mice, experimental toxin-expressing (DTA) mice, in which DTA expressing nociceptors had been deleted, were generated. 6 DTA mice and 6 litter mate controls were used for microarray analysis. 3 Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array chips were employed for analysis of the gene transcripts of each conditions.

Proteomics on Nav1.8-positive nociceptors of mouse DRG

Project description:Nociceptors play an essential role in both acute pain and chronic pain conditions. In this study, we examined the proteome of mouse dorsal root ganglia and compared NaV1.8Cre+/-; ROSA26-flox-stop-flox-DTA (Diphtheria toxin fragment A) mutant mice (NaV1.8Cre-DTA), in which NaV1.8-positive neurons (mainly nociceptors) in dorsal root ganglia (DRG) were ablated, with respective littermate wildtype controls.

Single-Cell Transcriptomes and Whole-Brain Projections of Serotonin Neurons in the Mouse Dorsal and Median Raphe Nuclei

Project description:We performed a comprehensive survey of DR and MR serotonin neurons in the adult mouse brain by scRNA-seq. To specifically label serotonin neurons, we crossed Sert-Cre mice (Gong et al., 2007) with the tdTomato Cre reporter mouse, Ai14 (Madisen et al., 2010). (Serotonin transporter, or Sert, is a marker for serotonin neurons; see more details below.) We collected serotonin neurons acutely dissociated from brain slices by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) and used Smart-seq2 (Picelli et al., 2013) to generate scRNA-seq libraries.

Immune Clearance of Attenuated Rabies Virus Results in Neuronal Survival with Altered Gene Expression

Project description:Rabies virus (RABV) is a highly neurotropic pathogen that typically leads to mortality of infected animals and humans. The precise etiology of rabies neuropathogenesis is unknown, though it is hypothesized to be due either to neuronal death or dysfunction. Our approach to study the survival and integrity of RABV-infected neurons was to infect Cre reporter mice with recombinant RABV expressing Cre-recombinase (RABV-Cre) to switch neurons constitutively expressing tdTomato (red) to expression of a Cre-inducible EGFP (green), permanently marking neurons that had been infected in vivo. We were able to isolate these previously infected neurons (M-bM-^@M-^\infectedM-bM-^@M-^]) by flow cytometry and assayed their gene expression profiles compared to uninfected cells (M-bM-^@M-^\uninfectedM-bM-^@M-^]) from the same mice. Two cre reporter mice were infected intranasally with RABV-Cre, allowed to resolve the acute infection, and then sacrificed at 3 months post-infection. EGFP+ cells from the brains of these mice were collected by FACS and represent those infected with RABV (M-bM-^@M-^\Infected-1M-bM-^@M-^] and M-bM-^@M-^\Infected-2M-bM-^@M-^]); tdTomato+ cells collected from these same mice represent uninfected cells (M-bM-^@M-^\Uninfected-1M-bM-^@M-^] and M-bM-^@M-^\Uninfected-2M-bM-^@M-^]). RNA was collected from these samples for microarray analysis.
