SMARCA3, a chromatin-remodeling factor, is required for p11-dependent antidepressant action.

ABSTRACT: p11, through unknown mechanisms, is required for behavioral and cellular responses to selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). We show that SMARCA3, a chromatin-remodeling factor, is a target for the p11/annexin A2 heterotetrameric complex. Determination of the crystal structure indicates that SMARCA3 peptide binds to a hydrophobic pocket in the heterotetramer. Formation of this complex increases the DNA-binding affinity of SMARCA3 and its localization to the nuclear matrix fraction. In the dentate gyrus, both p11 and SMARCA3 are highly enriched in hilar mossy cells and basket cells. The SSRI fluoxetine induces expression of p11 in both cell types and increases the amount of the ternary complex of p11/annexin A2/SMARCA3. SSRI-induced neurogenesis and behavioral responses are abolished by constitutive knockout of SMARCA3. Our studies indicate a central role for a chromatin-remodeling factor in the SSRI/p11 signaling pathway and suggest an approach to the development of improved antidepressant therapies. PAPERCLIP:

Project description:BACKGROUND:Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) plays a key role in the pathophysiology and treatment of depression. Recent clinical studies demonstrate that scopolamine, a nonselective muscarinic acetylcholine receptor antagonist, produces rapid antidepressant effects in patients with depression. Rodent studies demonstrate that scopolamine increases glutamate transmission and synaptogenesis in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC). Here we tested the hypothesis that activity-dependent BDNF release within the mPFC is necessary for the antidepressant actions of scopolamine. METHODS:Behavioral effects of scopolamine were assessed in BDNF Val/Met knock-in mice, in which BDNF processing and release are impaired. In addition, intra-mPFC infusion of a BDNF-neutralizing antibody was performed to test the necessity of BDNF release in driving scopolamine-induced behavioral responses. Further in vivo and in vitro experiments were performed to delineate BDNF-dependent mechanisms underlying the effects of scopolamine. RESULTS:We found that BDNF Met/Met mice have attenuated responses to scopolamine and that anti-BDNF antibody infusions into the mPFC prevented the antidepressant-like behavioral effects of scopolamine. In vitro experiments show that scopolamine rapidly stimulates BDNF release and tropomyosin receptor kinase B-extracellular signal-regulated kinase signaling. Moreover, these effects require alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole propionic acid receptor activation and are blocked by neuronal silencing. Importantly, pretreatment with verapamil prevented scopolamine-induced behavioral responses and BDNF-tropomyosin receptor kinase B signaling, suggesting that these effects are dependent on activation of voltage-dependent calcium channels. CONCLUSIONS:The results identify an essential role for activity-dependent BDNF release in the rapid antidepressant effects of scopolamine. Attenuation of responses in BDNF Met mice indicates that patients with the Met allele may be less responsive to scopolamine.
