Project description:NAP - neuroprotective peptide demonstrates increase in neuronal survival when injected into the hippocampus of rats in the model of epilepsy Microarray analysis was used to understand the expression of genes following KA treatment and the changes in gene expression following KA+NAP treatment Keywords: stress response KA was injected into the hippocampus of Sprague-Dawley rats. The other group of rats was injected with KA and NAP(10-13M). The third group was injected with NAP only and the last group was injected with PBS as a vehicle. CA3 area of hippocampus was removed 24h later and RNA extraction was done. The samples were subjected to microarray analysis.

Project description:The aim of this work was to identify mRNA expression changes in the ipsilateral hippocampus in the intraamygdala kainic acid (KA) mouse model of status epilepticus. In this model, status epilepticus (prolonged damaging seizures) are triggered by an intraamygdala KA injection. All mice develop epilepsy after a short latency period of 3-5 days. For our experiments, 10-week old mice with a C57BL/6 background were either injected with intraamygdala KA (n = 18) or vehicle (PBS, n = 18). Mice were sacrificed 8 hours following status epilepticus (acute pathology) or 14 days post-status epilepticus (timepoint at which all mice suffer from chronic epilepsy) and ipsilateral hippocampi were quickly dissected and pooled into 3 groups (n = 3 per pooled sample).

Project description:It has long been established that in neurological disease models, KA is a potent excitotoxin, mediating acute limbic seizures and long-term morphologic changes in the hippocampus, which are hallmark characteristics seen in temporal lobe epilepsy (i.e. mossy-fiber sprouting, neuronal loss, and reactive gliosis; Ben-Ari and Cossart, 2000). Persuasive clinical evidence employing KA receptor agonists further substantiate the detrimental effects of kainate. For instance, domoic acid (a structural analogue of kainate) has been found to inflict detrimental damage the hippocampus through a real-life outbreak incident of toxic encephalopathy caused by ingestion of mussels contaminated with domoic acid (Pearl et al., 1990).

Project description:Tropolones are small organic compounds with metal-directing moieties. Functionally, tropolones inhibit the proliferation of cancer cell lines, possibly through the inhibition of metalloenzymes such as select histone deacetylases (HDACS). Pan-HDAC inhibitors are therapeutically beneficial in the treatment of multiple myeloma albeit with significant side-effects likely owning to their lack of specificity. It was therefore hypothesized that tropolones might have anti-myeloma activities. To this end, a series of novel a-substituted tropolones were evaluated for cytotoxic effects in multiple myeloma cells. While all tested tropolones showed some level of toxicity, MO-OH-Nap had consistently low EC50 values between 1-11 mM in all three cell lines tested and was used for subsequent experiments. MO-OH-Nap was found to induce apoptosis in a concentration-dependent manner. Time course experiments demonstrated that MO-OH-Nap promotes caspase cleavage in a time-frame that was distinct from the pan-HDAC inhibitor SAHA. Furthermore, MO-OH-Nap- and SAHA-treated cells possess unique gene expression patterns, suggesting they promote apoptosis via different mechanisms. In particular, MO-OH-Nap increases the expression of markers associated with endoplasmic reticulum stress and the unfolded protein response. Synergistic cytotoxic effects were observed when cells were treated with the combination of MO-OH-Nap and the proteasome inhibitor bortezomib. However, treatment with MO-OH-Nap did not abrogate the bortezomib-induced increase in aggresomes, consistent with an HDAC6-independent mechanism for the observed synergy. Collectively, these finding support further investigation into the usefulness of a-substituted tropolones as anti-myeloma agents.

Project description:Mesial Temporal Lobe Epilepsy (MTLE) is a chronic disease characterized by recurrent unprovoked partial seizures. Current treatments lack long-term efficacy and typically act only to ameliorate the symptomology, rather than to modify the course of the disease. Chronic kainic acid (KA)-induced models of MTLE mimic prominent histopathological and electroencephalographic features of human MTLE, including hippocampal sclerosis, CA1 neuronal loss, astrogliosis, microgliosis, and electrographic hippocampal discharges. Here we examined the transcriptional profiles of the hippocampus of KA - vs sham-injected mice from epileptogenesis to the stabilization of spontaneous recurring seizures. KA (1 nmol) or saline (sham) was injected unilaterally into the dorsal hippocampus of 12 week old C57BL/6J mice, and the ipsilateral (IL) and contralateral (CL) hippocampi were isolated for whole-genome expression profiling (Illumina microarray) or immunohistochemistry 7, 28 and 60 d later. Differential gene expression analysis of the IL hippocampus indicated that 1349, 484, and 439 genes were significantly (fdr<0.05) altered in KA compared to sham at 7, 28 and 60 d, respectively. 108 genes were altered at all time-points assessed, while others were altered in a time-dependent manner, indicative of distinct hippocampal gene expression profiles across the course of disease. Ingenuity Pathway Analysis revealed that specific immune cell and inflammatory signaling pathways were upregulated at 7 and 28 d, in support of a role of neuroinflammation in the disease etiology. The top canonical pathways profile at 60 d was quite distinct from that at 7 and 28 d, although certain inflammatory pathways were still prevalent, indicative of pathways involved in the maintenance of the disease. Consistent with a role of neuroinflammation in MTLE, immunohistochemical analyses demonstrated time-dependent changes in both the intensity of immunoreactivity and number of Iba1- and GFAP-positive cells. To reveal gene networks not apparent with differential expression data alone, weighted gene co-expression analysis (WGCNA) was performed. A gene network that highly associated with 7 d IL-KA (but not 28 and 60 d) was identified, which may point to changes involved in the process of epileptogenesis. Another gene network revealed a group of genes highly associated with changes occurring at 28 and 60 d, but not 7 d, which may point to molecules involved in the generation of spontaneous recurring seizures. Collectively, results indicate that specific pathways, including many associated with neuroinflammation, are activated in a time-dependent manner in MTLE.

Project description:Injury of the CA1 subregion induced by a single injection of kainic acid (1×KA) is attenuated when juvenile animals (P20) have a history of two sustained neonatal seizures on P6 and P9. To identify gene candidates involved in the spatially protective effects produced by early life conditioning seizures, we profiled and compared the transcriptomes of CA1 subregions from control, 1×KA, and 3×KA treated animals. More genes were regulated following 3×KA (9.6%) than after 1×KA (7.1%). Following 1×KA, genes supporting oxidative stress, growth, development, inflammation, and neurotransmission were upregulated (e.g., Cacng1, Nadsyn1, Kcng1, Aven, S100a4, GFAP, Vim, Hrsp12, Grik1). After 3×KA, protective genes were differentially over-expressed (e.g., Cat, Gpx7, GAD1, Hspa12A, Foxn1, adenosine A1 receptor, Ca2+ adaptor and homeostatic proteins, Cacnb4, Atp2b2, anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 gene members, intracellular trafficking protein, Grasp, suppressor of cytokine signaling (Socs3)). Distinct anti-inflammatory interleukins not observed in adult tissues (e.g., IL6 transducer, IL23 and IL33 or their receptors (ILF2)) were also over-expressed. Several transcripts were validated by real-time polymerase chain reaction (QPCR) and immunohistochemistry. QPCR showed that casp 6 was increased after 1×KA but reduced after 3×KA; pro-inflammatory gene cox1 was either upregulated or unchanged after 1×KA but reduced by ~70% after 3×KA. Enhanced GFAP immunostaining following 1×KA was selectively attenuated in the CA1 subregion after 3×KA. The observed differential transcriptional responses may contribute to early life seizure-induced pre-conditioning and neuroprotection by reducing glutamate receptor-mediated Ca2+ permeability of the hippocampus and redirecting inflammatory and apoptotic pathways which could lead to new genetic therapies for epilepsy.
