An Excitatory Circuit in Perioculomotor Midbrain for Non-REM Sleep Control

ABSTRACT: The perioculomotor (pIII) region of the midbrain was postulated as a sleep-regulating center in the 1890s but largely neglected in subsequent studies. Using activity-dependent labeling and gene-expression profiling, we identified pIII neurons that promote non-REM (NREM) sleep.

Orexin/Hypocretin Receptor 2 Signaling in MCH Neurons Regulates REM sleep and Insulin Sensitivity

Project description:Orexin/hypocretin receptor type 2 (Ox2R), which is widely expressed in the brain, receives orexin signals and modulates sleep and metabolism. Ox2R selective agonists are currently under clinical trials for narcolepsy treatment. Nevertheless, it remains unclear whether Ox2R exerts an inhibitory effect via Gi proteins in addition to an excitatory effect via Gq proteins. Here, we focused on Ox2R expression and function in MCH neurons, which have opposite roles to orexin neurons in sleep and metabolism regulation. Ox2R-expressing MCH neurons showed heterogeneity of RNA expression, and orexin B application in brain slices induced both excitatory and inhibitory responses in distinct MCH neuron populations. Ox2R inactivation in MCH neurons reduced transitions from NREM to REM sleep and impaired insulin sensitivity with hyperphagia. In conclusion, Ox2R mediates excitatory and inhibitory responses in MCH neuron subpopulations in vivo, which might regulate sleep and metabolism.

Homer1a drives Homeostatic Scaling-down of Excitatory Synapses During Sleep

Project description:Homeostatic scaling is a global form of synaptic plasticity used by neurons to adjust overall synaptic weight and maintain neuronal firing rates while protecting information coding. While homeostatic scaling has been demonstrated in vitro, a clear physiological function of this plasticity type has not been defined. Sleep is an essential process that modifies synapses to support cognitive functions such as learning and memory. Evidence suggests that information coding during wake drives synapse strengthening which is offset by weakening of synapses during sleep .Here we use biochemical fractionation, proteomics and in vivo two-photon imaging to characterize wide-spread changes in synapse composition in mice through the wake/sleep cycle. We find that during the sleep phase, synapses are weakened through dephosphorylation and removal of synaptic AMPA-type glutamate receptors (AMPARs) driven by the immediate early gene Homer1a and signaling from group I metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluR1/5), consistent with known mechanisms of homeostatic scaling-down in vitro. Further, we find that these changes are important in the consolidation of contextual memories. While Homer1a gene expression is driven by neuronal activity during wake, Homer1a protein targeting to synapses serves as an integrator of arousal and sleep need through signaling by the wake-promoting neuromodulator noradrenaline (NA) and sleep-promoting modulator adenosine. During sleep or periods of increased sleep need Homer1a enters synapses where it remodels mGluR1/5 signaling complexes to promote AMPAR removal. Thus, we have characterized widespread changes occurring at synapses through the wake/sleep cycle and demonstrated that known mechanisms of homeostatic scaling-down previously demonstrated only in vitro are active in the brain during sleep to remodel synapses, contributing to memory consolidation.

Loss of Snord116 impacts lateral hypothalamus, sleep, and food-related behaviors

Project description:Imprinted genes are highly expressed in the hypothalamus, however whether specific imprinted genes affect hypothalamic neuromodulators and their functions is unknown. It has been suggested that Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS), a neurodevelopmental disorder caused by lack of paternal expression at the chromosome 15q11-q13, characterised with a hypothalamic insufficiency. Here we investigate the role of paternally expressed Snord116 gene within the context of sleep and metabolic abnormalities of PWS, and we report a novel role of this imprinted gene in the function and organisation of the two main neuromodulatory systems of the lateral hypothalamus (LH), namely the orexin (OX) and the melanin concentrating hormone (MCH). We observe that the dynamic between neuronal discharge in the LH and sleep-wake states of mice carrying the paternal deletion of the Snord116 (PWScrm+/p-) is compromised. This abnormal state-dependent neuronal activity is paralleled by a significant reduction of OX neurons in LH of mutants. Therefore, we propose that unbalance between OX- and MCH- expressing neurons in the LH of mutants reflects in a series of deficits manifested in the PWS, such as dysregulation of rapid eye movement (REM) sleep, food intake and temperature control.

Sleep-active hypothalamic MCH-system modulates hippocampal synaptic plasticity and is vulnerable in early Alzheimer’s Disease

Project description:In Alzheimer’s disease (AD), pathophysiological changes in the hippocampus cause deficits in episodic memory formation, leading to cognitive impairment. Hippocampal hyperactivity and decreased sleep quality are associated with early AD, but their basis is poorly understood. We find that homeostatic mechanisms transiently counteract increased excitatory drive of hippocampal CA1 neurons in AppNL-G-F mice, but fail to stabilize it at control levels. Spatial transcriptomics (ST) analysis identifies the Pmch gene encoding Melanin-Concentrating Hormone (MCH) as part of the adaptive response in AppNL-G-F mice. Hypothalamic MCH peptide is produced in sleep-active lateral hypothalamic neurons that project to CA1 and modulate memory. We show that MCH downregulates synaptic transmission and modulates firing rate homeostasis in hippocampal neurons. Moreover, MCH reverses the increased excitatory drive of CA1 neurons in AppNL-G-F mice. Consistent with our finding that a reduced fraction of MCH-neurons is active in AppNL-G-F mice, these animals spend less time in rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. In addition, MCH-axons projecting to CA1 become progressively impaired in both AppNL-G-F mice and AD patients. Our findings identify the MCH-system as vulnerable in early AD and suggest that impaired MCH-system function contributes to aberrant excitatory drive and sleep defects, which can compromise hippocampal-dependent functions.
