Tianeptine modulates synaptic vesicle dynamics and favors synaptic mitochondria processes in socially isolated rats.

ABSTRACT: Deregulation of synaptic function and neurotransmission has been linked with the development of major depression disorder (MDD). Tianeptine (Tian) has been used as antidepressant with anxiolytic properties and recently as a nootropic to improve cognitive performance, but its mechanism of action is unknown. We conducted a proteomic study on the hippocampal synaptosomal fractions of adult male Wistar rats exposed to chronic social isolation (CSIS, 6 weeks), an animal model of depression and after chronic Tian treatment in controls (nootropic effect) and CSIS-exposed rats (lasting 3 weeks of 6-week CSIS) (therapeutic effect). Increased expression of Syn1 and Camk2-related neurotransmission, vesicle transport and energy processes in Tian-treated controls were found. CSIS led to upregulation of proteins associated with actin cytoskeleton, signaling transduction and glucose metabolism. In CSIS rats, Tian up-regulated proteins involved in mitochondrial energy production, mitochondrial transport and dynamics, antioxidative defense and glutamate clearance, while attenuating the CSIS-increased glycolytic pathway and cytoskeleton organization proteins expression and decreased the expression of proteins involved in V-ATPase and vesicle endocytosis. Our overall findings revealed that synaptic vesicle dynamics, specifically exocytosis, and mitochondria-related energy processes might be key biological pathways modulated by the effective nootropic and antidepressant treatment with Tian and be a potential target for therapeutic efficacy of the stress-related mood disorders.

Proteomic analysis of hippocampal synaptosomes in chronically socially isolated rats: effect of antidepressant tianeptine

Project description:Dysregulation of brain synaptic proteins caused by chronic psychosocial stress has been linked with the development of major depression (MD). To gain insights into the pattern of synaptic proteome changes and different biological functions and pathways underlying MD and drug action, a comparative proteomic approach was employed in the hippocampus of rats exposed to chronic social isolation (CSIS, 6 weeks), an animal model of depression, with or without chronic antidepressant tianeptine (Tian) treatment (last 3 weeks of CSIS).

Chronic fluoxetine treatment of socially isolated rats modulates prefrontal cortex proteome

Project description:Chronic social isolation (CSIS) is a risk factor for human major depressive disorder (MDD). Fluoxetine (Flx) is an antidepressant commonly used for first-line MDD therapy. However, its downstream mechanisms of action, beyond serotonergic signaling, remain elusive. We aimed to analyze the effects of CSIS followed by chronic Flx treatment on proteome changes in the adult male rat prefrontal cortex (PFC) cytosolic and non-synaptic mitochondria (NSM)-enriched fractions. Treatment with Flx ameliorated depression-like behaviors in CSIS-induced rat model of depression as assessed by sucrose preference test and forced swim test. Proteomic data showed that Flx increased the expression of proteins involved in cytoskeleton and regulation of intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis in the cytosol and of enzymes linking the glycolytic pathway to the citric acid cycle (Dlat) and ATPase-coupled ion transmembrane transport in NSM. CSIS resulted in down-regulation of cytosolic proteins involved in proteasome/ubiquitination processes and glutathione antioxidative system and up-regulated expression of key enzymes participating in oxidative phosphorylation. Presence of cytochrome c in the cytosol indicated compromised mitochondrial membrane integrity. Flx treatment in CSIS rats showed predominately an upregulation of vesicle-mediated transport proteins and reduced Uqcrfs1 along with transport in NSM, favoring reduced energy metabolism. Our data suggest that proteins from both cytosol and NSM-enriched fractions are affected by Flx in a key brain region associated with stress response, cognitive process and regulation of emotion.

Epsin1 modulates synaptic vesicle retrieval capacity at CNS synapses.

Project description:Synaptic vesicle retrieval is an essential process for continuous maintenance of neural information flow after synaptic transmission. Epsin1, originally identified as an EPS15-interacting protein, is a major component of clathrin-mediated endocytosis. However, the role of Epsin1 in synaptic vesicle endocytosis at CNS synapses remains elusive. Here, we showed significantly altered synaptic vesicle endocytosis in neurons transfected with shRNA targeting Epsin1 during/after neural activity. Endocytosis was effectively restored by introducing shRNA-insensitive Epsin1 into Epsin1-depleted neurons. Domain studies performed on neurons in which domain deletion mutants of Epsin1 were introduced after Epsin1 knockdown revealed that ENTH, CLAP, and NPFs are essential for synaptic vesicle endocytosis, whereas UIMs are not. Strikingly, the efficacy of the rate of synaptic vesicle retrieval (the "endocytic capacity") was significantly decreased in the absence of Epsin1. Thus, Epsin1 is required for proper synaptic vesicle retrieval and modulates the endocytic capacity of synaptic vesicles.

Fluoxetine stimulates synaptic vesicular dynamic and mitochondrial energy metabolism in prefrontal cortex of socially isolated rats

Project description:Identifying adequate biomarkers of major depressive disorder (MDD) and therapy has been the goal of many studies. Many molecular alterations associated with the pathophysiology of MDD reside within the synapse. Fluoxetine (Flx) is the most commonly prescribed antidepressant, but the mechanism of its action is unclear. Hence, we performed a comparative proteomics of synaptosomal-enriched fractions from prefrontal cortex of adult male Wistar rats exposed to CSIS (6 weeks) and after chronic Flx treatment of controls (3 weeks) and CSIS-exposed rats (lasting 3 weeks of 6-week-CSIS). Our aim was to profile synaptosomal proteome changes representative of possible time-consuming events underlying the CSIS-induced depressive-like behavior and antidepressant property of Flx. Bioinformatic data of Flx-treated control rats revealed down-expression of proteins that mainly participate in proteasome system and vesicle mediated transport as well as predominantly increases expression of exocytosis-associated proteins. CSIS led to decreased expression of proteins involved in ATP metabolic process, synaptic vesicle endocytosis and proteasome system, while increased energy yielding glycolytic pathway. Flx treatment of CSIS rats predominantly increases expression of exo/endocytosis-associated proteins and Cox5a, mitochondria-associated proteins involved in oxidative phosphorylation. Overall, synaptoproteomic profiling indicated that Flx stimulated synaptic vesicular dynamics by enhancing endo/exocytosis and mitochondrial energy metabolism in CSIS rats that might be critical targets for pharmacological treatments for MDD.

C-terminal calcium binding of ?-synuclein modulates synaptic vesicle interaction.

Project description:Alpha-synuclein is known to bind to small unilamellar vesicles (SUVs) via its N terminus, which forms an amphipathic alpha-helix upon membrane interaction. Here we show that calcium binds to the C terminus of alpha-synuclein, therewith increasing its lipid-binding capacity. Using CEST-NMR, we reveal that alpha-synuclein interacts with isolated synaptic vesicles with two regions, the N terminus, already known from studies on SUVs, and additionally via its C terminus, which is regulated by the binding of calcium. Indeed, dSTORM on synaptosomes shows that calcium mediates the localization of alpha-synuclein at the pre-synaptic terminal, and an imbalance in calcium or alpha-synuclein can cause synaptic vesicle clustering, as seen ex vivo and in vitro. This study provides a new view on the binding of alpha-synuclein to synaptic vesicles, which might also affect our understanding of synucleinopathies.

Mitochondrial Calcium Uptake Modulates Synaptic Vesicle Endocytosis in Central Nerve Terminals.

Project description:Presynaptic calcium influx triggers synaptic vesicle (SV) exocytosis and modulates subsequent SV endocytosis. A number of calcium clearance mechanisms are present in central nerve terminals that regulate intracellular free calcium levels both during and after stimulation. During action potential stimulation, mitochondria rapidly accumulate presynaptic calcium via the mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU). The role of mitochondrial calcium uptake in modulating SV recycling has been debated extensively, but a definitive conclusion has not been achieved. To directly address this question, we manipulated the expression of the MCU channel subunit in primary cultures of neurons expressing a genetically encoded reporter of SV turnover. Knockdown of MCU resulted in ablation of activity-dependent mitochondrial calcium uptake but had no effect on the rate or extent of SV exocytosis. In contrast, the rate of SV endocytosis was increased in the absence of mitochondrial calcium uptake and slowed when MCU was overexpressed. MCU knockdown did not perturb activity-dependent increases in presynaptic free calcium, suggesting that SV endocytosis may be controlled by calcium accumulation and efflux from mitochondria in their immediate vicinity.

Effects of Tianeptine on Adult Rats Following Prenatal Stress.

Project description:ObjectiveExposing a pregnant female to stress during the critical period of embryonic fetal brain development increases the risk of psychiatric disorders in the offspring. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of antidepressant tianeptine on prenatally stressed (PNS) rats.MethodsIn this study, a repeated variable stress paradigm was applied to pregnant rats during the last week of gestation. To investigate the effects of antidepressant tianeptine on PNS rats, behavioral and protein expression analyses were performed. Forced swim test, open field test, and social interaction test were performed to determine changes in PNS rats compared to non-stressed offspring. Haloperidol was used as a positive control as an antipsychotic drug based on previous studies.ResultsBehavioral changes were restored after treatment with tianeptine or haloperidol. Western blot and immunohistochemical analyses of the prefrontal cortex revealed downregulation of several neurodevelopmental proteins in PNS rats. After treatment with tianeptine or haloperidol, their expression levels were increased.ConclusionDownregulation of several proteins in PNS rats might have caused subsequent behavioral changes in PNS rats. After tianeptine or haloperidol treatment, behavioral changes in PNS rats were restored. Therefore, tianeptine might decrease incidence of prenatal stress related-psychiatric disorders such as depression and schizophrenia.

Opioid-like adverse effects of tianeptine in male rats and mice.

Project description:RationaleTianeptine is a mu-opioid receptor (MOR) agonist with increasing reports of abuse in human populations. Preclinical data regarding the abuse potential and other opioid-like adverse effects of tianeptine at supratherapeutic doses are sparse.ObjectivesThe present study evaluated tianeptine in a rat model of abuse potential assessment and in mouse models of motor, gastrointestinal, and respiratory adverse effects.MethodsAbuse potential was assessed in adult male Sprague-Dawley rats using an intracranial self-stimulation (ICSS) procedure to determine effects of acute and repeated tianeptine on responding for electrical brain stimulation. Male ICR mice were used to determine the effects of tianeptine in assays of locomotor behavior and gastrointestinal motility. Male Swiss-Webster mice were monitored for respiratory changes using whole-body plethysmography.ResultsIn rats, acute tianeptine produced weak and delayed evidence for abuse-related ICSS facilitation at an intermediate dose (10 mg/kg, IP) and pronounced, naltrexone-preventable ICSS depression at a higher dose (32 mg/kg, IP). Repeated 7-day tianeptine (10 and 32 mg/kg/day, IP) produced no increase in abuse-related ICSS facilitation, only modest tolerance to ICSS depression, and no evidence of physical dependence. In mice, tianeptine produced dose-dependent, naltrexone-preventable locomotor activation. Tianeptine (100 mg/kg, SC) also significantly inhibited gastrointestinal motility and produced naloxone-reversible respiratory depression.ConclusionsTianeptine presents as a MOR agonist with resistance to tolerance and dependence in our ICSS assay in rats, and it has lower abuse potential by this metric than many commonly abused opioids. Nonetheless, tianeptine produces MOR agonist-like acute adverse effects that include motor impairment, constipation, and respiratory depression.
