PCM1 is necessary for focal ciliary integrity and is a candidate for severe schizophrenia

ABSTRACT: The neuronal primary cilium and centriolar satellites have established roles in neurogenesis. However, the role of these regions in the postnatal brain is not clear. Here we show that ablation of the pericentriolar material 1 gene (Pcm1) in the mouse leads to enlarged lateral ventricles and behavioral abnormalities in adult but not juvenile animals. Adults have concomitant reductions in cortical mass and altered hippocampal morphology. Cytoanatomical analyses revealed progressive ciliary shortening, most prominently in the CA1 hippocampus, prelimbic cortex, and amygdala, as psychomotor and cognitive function declined. RNAseq of affected regions revealed significant transcriptional changes in amine- and G-protein coupled receptor activity pathways. The physiological relevance of this phenotype was supported by decreased dopamine D2 receptor (D2R) protein levels, and the failure to rescue adult behavioral defects with antipsychotic drugs. Immunoprecipitations showed an association with Pcm1 and D2Rs. Finally, we sequenced PCM1 in two cohorts of humans with severe schizophrenia. Systematic modeling of all discovered rare alleles by in vivo complementation in zebrafish revealed a significant enrichment for pathogenic alleles. Taken together, our data highlight a role for the pericentriolar material in the postnatal brain; they suggest that a progressive degenerative ciliary/centriolar phenotype can induce behavioral defects in mice; and support a contributory role for PCM1 in individuals with severe psychosis.

Centriolar satellites expedite mother centriole remodeling to promote ciliogenesis

Project description:Centrosomes are orbited by centriolar satellites, dynamic multiprotein assemblies nucleated by PCM1. To study the requirement for centriolar satellites, we generated mice lacking PCM1. Pcm1-/- mice display partially expressive perinatal lethality with survivors exhibiting hydrocephalus, oligospermia and cerebellar hypoplasia. Pcm1-/- multiciliated ependymal cells and PCM1-/- retinal pigmented epithelial 1 (RPE1) cells showed reduced ciliogenesis. PCM1-/- RPE1 cells displayed reduced docking of the mother centriole to the ciliary vesicle and removal of CP110 and CEP97 from the distal mother centriole, indicating compromised early ciliogenesis. We show these molecular cascades are maintained in vivo, although we propose that the cellular threshold for ciliogenesis initiation varies between cell types. We propose that PCM1 and centriolar satellites facilitate efficient trafficking of proteins to and from centrioles, including the departure of CP110 and CEP97 to initiate ciliogenesis.

Functional and molecular heterogeneity of D2R neurons along dorsal ventral axis in the striatum

Project description:Action control is a key brain function determining the survival of animals in their environment. In mammals, neurons expressing dopamine D2 receptors (D2R) in the dorsal striatum (DS) and the nucleus accumbens (Acb) jointly but differentially contribute to the fine regulation of movement. However, their region-specific molecular features are presently unknown. By combining RNAseq of striatal D2R neurons and histological analyses, we identified hundreds of novel region-specific molecular markers, which may serve as tools to target selective subpopulations. As a proof of concept, we characterized the molecular identity of a subcircuit defined by Wfs1 neurons and evaluated multiple behavioral tasks after its temporally-controlled deletion of D2R. Consequently, conditional D2R knockout mice displayed a significant reduction in digging behavior and an exacerbated hyperlocomotor response to amphetamine. Thus, targeted molecular analyses reveal an unforeseen heterogeneity in D2R-expressing striatal neuronal populations, underlying specific D2R’s functional features in the control of specific motor behaviors.

Optogenetic Stimulation of Prelimbic Pyramidal Neurons Maintains Fear Memories and Modulates Amygdala Pyramidal Neuron Transcriptome

Project description:The suppression of fear memory in the absence of danger (fear extinction) requires coordinated neural activity within the amygdala and medial prefrontal (prelimbic and infralimbic) cortex. Any behavior has a transcriptomic signature that is modified by environmental experiences, and specific genes are involved in functional plasticity and synaptic wiring during fear memory and extinction. In the present study, we investigated the effects of optogenetic manipulations of prelimbic pyramidal neurons on amygdala gene expression to analyze the specific transcriptional pathways involved in fear extinction. To this aim, transgenic mice (Thy1-COP4) having cortical and amygdala pyramidal neurons optogenetically excitable were (or not) fear-conditioned. During the extinction phase, the mice received optogenetic (or sham) stimulations to maintain the activation of the prelimbic pyramidal neurons and impair fear extinction. At the end of behavioral testing, electrophysiological (Excitatory Post-Synaptic Currents) and morphological (spinogenesis) correlates were evaluated in the pyramidal neurons of prelimbic cortex. Furthermore, transcriptomic cell-specific RNA-analyses (differential gene expression profiling and functional enrichment analyses) were performed in amygdala pyramidal neurons. Results demonstrate that pyramidal neurons of prelimbic cortex are involved in modulation of the fear responses during extinction phase and their optogenetic stimulation in fear-conditioned mice results in strong modifications of the amygdala transcriptome. Understanding the transcriptomic architecture of fear extinction may facilitate the comprehension of fear-related disorders.

Encoding of Contextual Fear Memory Requires De Novo Proteins in the Prelimbic Cortex

Project description:Time dependent coordinated hippocampal-prefrontal cortical interactions are required for the long-term storage of memories. However, the role of prefrontal cortex (PFC) in encoding of long-term memories remains elusive. Here, we discover a critical role of PFC in the encoding of contextual memories in mice. We demonstrate that specific pools of mRNAs are translated in the PFC following one and six hours of behavioral training. Moreover, disruption of protein synthesis in the prelimbic region of PFC immediately after training inhibits encoding contextual fear memories, whereas disruption at six hours after training is ineffective. Thus, early protein synthesis in the PFC is necessary and critical for the encoding of contextual fear memories. These findings establish key role for the prelimbic cortex in encoding of contextual memories.

Transcriptome analysis of Katnal2 knock-out mutant and wild-type mice

Project description:Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) frequently accompany macrocephaly, which could involve hydrocephalic enlargement of brain ventricles. Katnal2 is a microtubule-related protein strongly implicated in ASD. However, it remains unclear whether Katnal2 knockout (KO) in mice leads to microtubule-related cellular deficits and ASD-related phenotypes. We found here that Katnal2-KO mice display social communication deficits, including excessive courtship ultrasonic vocalizations and decreased mating success. Katnal2-KO brains show age-dependent ventricular enlargements and motile ciliary deficits in ependymal cells lining ventricular walls. Katnal2-KO hippocampal neurons, surrounded by lateral ventricles, show limited blood volumes and flow and age-dependent synaptic functional deficits involving synaptic gene downregulation and ASD-like transcriptomic changes. Early postnatal Katnal2 re-expression prevents the ventricular and behavioral phenotypes in Katnal2-KO adults. These results suggest that Katnal2 critically regulates ependymal ciliary function, ventricular volume, CSF circulation, synaptic function, and social communication and that ependymal ciliopathies could underlie ASD-related macrocephaly, ventriculomegaly, and hydrocephalus

Prefrontal D2- dopamine receptor deactivates top-down inhibitory control by regulating striatal cholinergic interneurons

Project description:Inhibitory control is a core cognitive function preventing the expression of maladaptive behaviors. This function is overridden in mental illnesses including bipolar disorder, autism spectrum disorders and schizophrenia, causing maladaptive psychomotor agitation. We developed intersectional CRISPR/Cas9 targeting approaches in adult mice to identify receptor/circuit selective mechanisms responsible for inactivation of inhibitory control in two models of amphetamine-induced psychomotor agitation. Inactivation of dopamine D2-receptors in the medial-prefrontal cortex (mPFC) abolished amphetamine-induced: psychomotor agitation, motor sensitization, and cAMP-associated transcriptome changes in the striatum. Further characterization using intersectional projection preparations indicate that these deficits implicate D2-receptors expressed on projection neurons innervating cholinergic interneurons of the dorsomedial striatum (DMS). Trans-synaptic targeting of acetylcholine production in DMS neurons receiving these projections restored psychomotor agitation in mice lacking mPFC D2- receptor expression. These findings identify a circuit by which activation of cortical D2-receptor circumvent an acetylcholine-mediated inhibition of DMS functions by the mPFC to promote psychomotor activation.
