The relationship between brain mRNA levels and behaviour among inbred Lewis rats

ABSTRACT: Behaviour is derived from complex molecular interactions within the brain, in response to specific environmental stimuli. In some rare cases, the direct causes of behaviour have been attributed to the interactions of a single or small group of gene transcripts and proteins. We conducted two experiments with the hope of defining some of the molecular interactors for four separate behaviours: sugar feeding, locomotor activity in a novel field, and acoustic startle reflex, and prepulse inhibition of the acoustic startle reflex, which have been linked to prefrontal cortex dopaminergic function or as predictors of sensorimotor gating in diseases such as schizophrenia. Rats with high and low response phenotypes were selected to determine the differences between these two extremes of behaviour. From our analyses, transcripts of Homer1, a neuronal scaffolding protein which interacts with group1 metabotropic glutamate receptors, were found to be significantly correlated with array data in both experiments, and with behaviour data across three separate tests in the second experiment, indicating that this gene's transcripts and probably downstream protein interactions have a significant correlation with behaviour phenotype in the inbred Lewis rat. Future areas of pursuit for this data should involve modification of the expression of Homer1 in an isolated fashion to determine a pharmacological threshold for differences in behaviour. This SuperSeries is composed of the SubSeries listed below.

ISL1 is an essential determinant of structural and functional tonotopic representation of sound

Project description:A cardinal feature of the auditory pathway is frequency selectivity represented in the form of a tonotopic map from the cochlea to the cortex. The molecular determinants of the auditory frequency map are unknown. Here, we discovered that the transcription factor ISL1 regulates features of auditory neurons, including the formation of the spiral ganglion neuron (SGN) and peripheral and central processes that shape the tonotopic representation of the auditory map. We selectively knocked out Isl1 in auditory neurons using Neurod1Cre strategies. In the absence of Isl1, SGNs migrate into the central cochlea and beyond. The cochlear wiring is profoundly reduced and disrupted. The central axons of Isl1 mutants lose their topographic projections and segregation at the cochlear nucleus. Transcriptome analysis of SGNs shows that Isl1 regulates neurogenesis, axonogenesis, migration, and the functional properties of neurons. Surprisingly, notable auditory processing features are preserved despite the significant hearing impairment, revealing central auditory pathway resilience and plasticity in mutant mice. Mutant mice demonstrate altered acoustic startle reflex, prepulse inhibition, characteristics of compensatory neural hyperactivity centrally. Our findings show that the Isl1 is one of the obligatory factors required to sculpt auditory structural and functional tonotopic maps. Still, upon Isl1 deletion, the ensuing compensatory plasticity of the auditory pathway does not suffice to overcome developmental changes at the peripheral sensory organ.

Proteomics of the Bee brain and in olfactory memory

Project description:Previous work has shown that a series of honey bee brain proteins were probably linked to the proboscis extension reflex (PER) , a model studying insect behaviour. Herein, it was the aim of the study to generate a “synaptic proteome” and to investigate which proteins were paralleling olfactory conditioning. To address this information, we applied a non-sophisticated olfactory conditioning model using the proboscis extension reflex (PER) in the honeybee (Apis mellifera). Foraging honeybees were used in the study and three groups were formed, animals on water control, sucrose (PER) and olfactory conditioned (PER-conditioned) using 2-octanone. A synaptosomal preparation of honey bee brain for quantitative proteomics using stable isotope labelling (TMT 10plex) was performed. In addition a synaptosomal brain proteome was generated. Protein levels that were modified during olfactory conditioning were associated with “SNARE interactions in vesicular transport” (BET1 and VAMP7), ABC transporters, and fatty acid degradation pathways.. A honey bee synaptosomal proteome dataset including neurotransmitter receptors and transporters was generated.

Identification of miRNAs that regulate tinnitus development

Project description:To investigate which miRNAs regulate the development of tinnitus, we have performed microarray for miRNAs as a discovery platform. The changes in dorsal cochlear nucleus after noise exposure have been suggested to play an important role in the development of tinnitus. This study was performed using 12 week-old-male Sprague-Dawley rats. Based on our previous experiment about the development of tinnitus, we set a time point for harvesting dorsal cochlear nuclei: 3 weeks after the exposure of 6-8 kHz narrow-band noise (110 dB SPL for 2 h) at right side. Eight animals were divided into two experimental groups: tinnitus group showing evidence of tinnitus (n = 5); and non-tinnitus group showing no evidence of tinnitus (n = 3) in the gap pre-pulse inhibition of acoustic startle reflex (GPIAS) recordings. Three animals of each group were anesthetized deeply and euthanized at 3 weeks post noise exposure. Dorsal cochlear nucleus at right side was harvested. Microarray for miRNAs was performed using the Affymetrix miRNA 4.0 microarray. Considering the fold change of normalized signal intensities between tinnitus and non-tinnitus groups, miR-375-3p was selected as the candidate miRNA. This result was validated by quantitative reverse transcription-PCR.
