Zinc-dependent gene expression in neurons upon glutamate stimulation

ABSTRACT: Zinc (Zn2+) has been increasingly recognized to function as an important neurotransmitter, although how it functions in the context of signaling cascades is as yet unknown. In dissociated rat hippocampal neuron cultures, we stimulated neurons with glutamate, with or without additional exogenous ZnCl2 or a cell-permeable zinc chelator TPA. We found considerable heterogeneity among biological replicates which complicated zinc-dependent gene expression analysis. In general, we saw upregulation of genes implicating ER stress in glutamate-stimulated neurons that experience a zinc signal.

The MT1G gene in LUHMES Neurons is a Sensitive Biomarker of Neurotoxicity

Project description:Identification of toxicants that underlie neurological diseases is a neglected area awaiting a valid strategy to identify such toxicants. We sought biomarkers that respond to known neurotoxicants in LUHMES immortalized neurons and evaluated these biomarkers for use in screening libraries of environmental toxicants. LUHMES immortalized human dopaminergic neurons were surveyed by RNA sequencing following challenge with Parkinsonian toxicants rotenone, 6-hydroxydopamine, MPP+, and ziram (zinc dimethyldithiocarbamate; Zn2+DDC2), as well as additional toxicants paraquat, MS275, and methylmercury. The metallothionein gene MT1G was the most dynamic gene expression response to all seven toxicants. Multiple toxicants also increased transcripts for SLC30A1 and SLC30A2 zinc secretion transporters, the SLC7A11 xCT cystine/glutamate antiporter important for glutathione synthesis, DNA damage Inducible Transcript 3 (DDIT3), and secreted growth factors FIBIN and CXCL12, whereas several toxicants decreased expression of the Apelin growth factor (APLN). These biomarker genes showed advantages in sensitivity by responding to many toxicants at sub-cytotoxic concentrations. Since several of these biomarker genes and prior neurological disease studies implicated disruption of metal distribution, we tested metal chelator thiram (dimethyldithiocarbamate, DDC), Zn2+DDC2, and several other metals and metal chelates for cytoxicity and induction of MT1G expression. Metals and chelators that caused dynamic increases in MT1G expression caused cytotoxicity, whereas Ni2+DDC2 caused MT1G increase, but no cytotoxicity. These results bolster prior work suggesting that neurons are characteristically sensitive to depletion of glutathione or to disruption of cellular metal distribution and provide biomarkers to search for such neurotoxicants in chemical libraries.

Glutamate-induced transcriptional changes in embryonic mouse cortical neurons [GRO-seq]

Project description:Glutamate is a major excitatory neurotransmitter in the nervous system. Increased and persistent release of glutamate is toxic to neurons and this excitotoxicity is a hallmark of several neurodegenerative diseases. Here, we use GRO-seq to screen for the acute transcriptional changes induced by glutamate exposure on embryonic mouse cortical neurons to reveal downstream molecules which could participate in glutamate-induced toxicity. We show that several miRNA genes, such as miR-21, have altered expression upon glutamate exposure.

Nonpeptidergic MrgprD-expressing neurons maintain cutaneous homeostasis via glutamate-mediated mast cell suppression

Project description:Cutaneous mast cells (MC) mediate numerous skin inflammatory processes and have anatomical and functional associations with sensory afferent neurons. We found that Langerhans cell (LC)-deficient mice have reduced numbers of MrgprD-expressing epidermal nerve endings and manifest enhanced irritant dermatitis due to exaggerated MC degranulation. Ablation of LC or MrgprD-expressing neurons increased expression of a MC gene module including the activating receptor, Mrgprb2, resulting in increased MC degranulation and cutaneous inflammation in multiple models. β-alanine agonism of MrgprD-expressing neurons reduced expression of MC module genes and suppressed MC responses. MrgprD-expressing neurons released glutamate which was increased by MrgprD agonism and decreased in LC-deficient mice. Inhibiting glutamate release or glutamate receptor binding yielded hyperresponsive MC and a genomic state similar to that in mice lacking MrgprD-expressing neurons. These data demonstrate that MrgprD-expressing neurons suppress MC hyperresponsiveness and skin inflammation via glutamate release thereby revealing an unexpected neuro-immune mechanism maintaining cutaneous immune homeostasis.

Intracellular Zn2+ transients modulate global gene expression in dissociated rat hippocampal neurons

Project description:Zinc (Zn2+) is an integral component of many proteins and has been shown to act in a regulatory capacity in different mammalian systems, including as a neurotransmitter in neurons throughout the brain. While Zn2+ plays an important role in modulating neuronal potentiation and synaptic plasticity, little is known about the signaling mechanisms of this regulation. In dissociated rat hippocampal neuron cultures, we used fluorescent Zn2+ sensors to rigorously define resting Zn2+ levels and stimulation-dependent intracellular Zn2+ dynamics, and we performed RNA-Seq to characterize Zn2+-dependent transcriptional effects upon stimulation. We found that relatively small changes in cytosolic Zn2+ during stimulation altered expression levels of 931 genes, and these Zn2+ dynamics induced transcription of many genes implicated in neurite expansion and synaptic growth. Additionally, while we were unable to verify the presence of synaptic Zn2+ in these cultures, we did detect the synaptic vesicle Zn2+ transporter ZnT3 and found it to be substantially upregulated by cytosolic Zn2+ increases. These results provide the first global sequencing-based examination of Zn2+-dependent changes in transcription and identify genes that may mediate Zn2+-dependent processes and functions.

ABCC5 functions as a transporter of glutamate conjugates and analogs

Project description:The ubiquitous efflux transporter ATP-binding cassette sub-family C member 5 (ABCC5) is present at high levels in the blood-brain barrier, neurons and glia, but its in vivo substrates and function are not known. Untargeted metabolomic screens revealed that Abcc5-/- mice accumulate endogenous glutamate conjugates and analogs in several tissues, but brain in particular. The abundant neurotransmitter N-acetylaspartylglutamate (NAAG), for example, was over 2-fold higher in Abcc5-/- brain. In line with ABCC5-mediated transport, the metabolites that accumulated in Abcc5-/- tissues were depleted in cultured cells that overexpressed human ABCC5. Using membrane vesicles, we show that ABCC5 not only transports the metabolites detected in our screen, but also a wide range of peptides containing a C-terminal glutamate. Glutamate conjugates are of physiological relevance because they can affect the function of glutamate, the principal excitatory neurotransmitter in the brain. We found that ABCC5 also transports exogenous glutamate analogs, like the classic excitotoxic neurotoxins kainic acid, domoic acid and N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) and the therapeutic glutamate analog ZJ43. Taken together, we have identified ABCC5 as a general glutamate conjugate and analog transporter that affects the disposition of endogenous metabolites, toxins and drugs.

Redirected nuclear glutamate dehydrogenase supplies Tet3 with α-ketoglutarate in neurons

Project description:Tet3 is the main α-ketoglutarate (αKG)-dependent dioxygenase in neurons that converts 5-methyl-dC into 5-hydroxymethyl-dC and further on to 5-formyl- and 5-carboxy-dC. Neurons possess high levels of 5-hydroxymethyl-dC that further increase during neural activity to establish transcriptional plasticity required for learning and memory functions. How αKG, which is mainly generated in mitochondria as an intermediate of the tricarboxylic acid cycle, is made available in the nucleus has remained an unresolved question in the connection between metabolism and epigenetics. We show that in neurons the mitochondrial enzyme glutamate dehydrogenase, which converts glutamate into αKG in an NAD+-dependent manner, is redirected to the nucleus by the αKG-consumer protein Tet3, suggesting on-site production of αKG. Further, glutamate dehydrogenase has a stimulatory effect on Tet3 demethylation activity in neurons, and neuronal activation increases the levels of αKG. Overall, the glutamate dehydrogenase-Tet3 interaction might have a role in epigenetic changes during neural plasticity.

Dynamic changes in proteome and phosphoproteome following glutamate excitotoxicity in cultured primary cortical neurons

Project description:Excitotoxicity caused by over-stimulation of the ionotropic glutamate receptors is a key neuronal cell death process underpinning brain damage in acute and chronic neurological disorders such as ischaemic stroke, traumatic brain injury, and neurodegenerative diseases. Exactly how neurons die in excitotoxicity still remains unclear and is an important area of research in the field of neuroscience. In this current project we wanted to explore the global changes in proteome and phosphoproteome following glutamate excitotoxicity in cultured primary cortical neurons.

Transcriptomics of Mycobacterium tuberculosis exposed to zinc limitation, zinc depletion by calprotectin and TPEN, and zinc toxicity

Project description:The purpose of this study was to determine the transcriptomes of Mycobacterium tuberculosis m2 6206 (Mtb) exposed to varying concentration of zinc (Zn2+) in vitro that mimic the concentrations of Zn2+ experienced in vivo during infection. Mtb were grown in the chemically defined Sauton's medium without Zn2+ added until expression of Zur-regulated genes were observed, indicating the onset of Zn-limitation. Cells were then treated with with different concentrations of Zn2+ through addition of 500 uM Zn2+, 6uM Zn2+, no added Zn2+, 0.35 mg/mL recombinant calprotectin (CP) or 0.8 µM N,N,N′,N′-tetrakis(2-pyridinylmethyl)-1,2-ethanediamine (TPEN). After 24 hours of exposure to the different [Zn2+] conditions, RNA was harvested, prepared for RNA-seq, and sequenced on the Illumina HiSeq platform with a paired-end (2x150bp) configuration.
