Hippocampal neurons respond to brain activity with functional hypoxia

ABSTRACT: Physical activity and cognitive challenge are established non-invasive methods to induce comprehensive brain activation and thereby improve global brain function including mood and emotional well-being in healthy subjects and in patients. However, the mechanisms underlying this experimental and clinical observation and broadly exploited therapeutic tool are still widely obscure. Here we show in the behaving brain that physiological (endogenous) hypoxia is likely a respective lead mechanism, regulating hippocampal plasticity via adaptive gene expression. A refined transgenic approach in mice, utilizing the oxygen-dependent degradation (ODD) domain of HIF-1α fused to CreERT2 recombinase, allows us to demonstrate hypoxic cells in the performing brain under normoxia and motor-cognitive challenge, and spatially map them by light-sheet microscopy, all in comparison to inspiratory hypoxia as strong positive control. We report that a complex motor-cognitive challenge causes hypoxia across essentially all brain areas, with hypoxic neurons particularly abundant in the hippocampus. These data suggest an intriguing model of neuroplasticity, in which a specific task-associated neuronal activity triggers mild hypoxia as a local neuron-specific as well as a brain-wide response, comprising indirectly activated neurons and non-neuronal cells.

Functional hypoxia drives neuroplasticity and neurogenesis via brain erythropoietin

Project description:Erythropoietin (EPO), named after its role in hematopoiesis, is also expressed in the mammalian brain. In clinical settings, recombinant EPO had revealed a remarkable improvement of cognitive functions, but the underlying mechanisms have remained obscure. Animal studies demonstrated, however, that neuronal EPO effects are independent of an elevated hematocrit. Here, we show with a novel line of reporter mice that cognitive challenge leads to local/endogenous hypoxia in hippocampal pyramidal neurons where it induces enhanced expression of both EPO and EPO receptor (EPOR). High-dose EPO administration, which amplifies auto/paracrine EPO/EPOR signaling, prompts the emergence of new CA1 neurons and enhanced dendritic spine densities. Single cell sequencing reveals rapid increase in newly differentiating neurons. Importantly, improved performance on complex running wheels after EPO treatment is imitated by exposure to mild exogenous/inspiratory hypoxia. All these effects depend on neuronal expression of the Epor gene. Taken together, this suggests a novel cellular model of neuroplasticity in which neuronal networks, challenged by cognitive tasks, drift into transient hypoxia which becomes a trigger of neuronal EPO/EPOR expression. This regulatory circle causes long-lasting neuroplastic adaptation, and as fundamental cellular mechanism, may be relevant for strategies aiming at cognitive improvement.

Gene expression responses to oxygen challenge in a panel of human brain organoids

Project description:The human brain is highly sensitive to oxygen availability, and hypoxia is a common risk factor for neurological and cognitive traits throughout life. Hypoxia exerts distinct effects on different brain cell types, many of which involve changes in gene expression. We used brain organoids derived from genotyped human iPSC lines to characterize gene expression at single-cell resolutions under normoxic conditions and both hypoxic and hyperoxic challenges.

A novel noninvasive murine model of neonatal hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy demonstrates developmental delay and motor deficits with activation of inflammatory pathways in monocytes [bulkRNA-seq]

Project description:Neonatal hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) occurs in 1.5 per 1000 live births, leaving affected children with long-term motor and cognitive deficits. Few animal models of HIE incorporate maternal immune activation (MIA) despite the significant risk MIA poses to HIE incidence and diagnosis. Our non-invasive model of HIE pairs late gestation MIA with postnatal hypoxia. HIE pups exhibited a trend toward smaller overall brain size and delays in the ontogeny of several developmental milestones. In adulthood, HIE animals had reduced strength and gait deficits, but no difference in speed. Surprisingly, HIE animals performed better on the rotarod, an assessment of motor coordination. There was significant upregulation of inflammatory genes in microglia 24 hours after hypoxia, which were largely downregulated one week later. Single cell RNAseq revealed upregulation of epigenetic machinery in macrophages invading the brain following HIE. These results support a two-hit noninvasive model pairing MIA and hypoxia as a model for HIE in humans. This model results in a mild phenotype compared to established HIE models; however, HIE is a clinically heterogeneous injury resulting in a variety of outcomes in humans. The pathways identified in our model of HIE may yield novel targets for therapy for neonates with HIE.

Patch-Seq Analysis of Respiratory Neurons of the preBötzinger Complex in Neonatal Mice

Project description:Inspiratory breathing movements depend on neurons in the preBötzinger complex (preBötC). We use the Patch-Seq technique and next-generation sequencing to measure the transcriptomes of preBötC insporatory neurons. The preBötC inspiratory neurons can generate both, the rhythm and the rudimentary motor output pattern for inspiratory breathing. We used electrophysiological properties of preBötC inspiratory neurons to categorize them as putative rhythm- and pattern-generators and then aspirated their cellular contents for scRNa sequencing.

Next Generation Sequencing Facilitates Quantitative Analysis of treated and untreated mortical neurons GDE

Project description:Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) is associated with disruption of cerebral blood flow leading to localized brain hypoxia. Thyroid hormone (TH) treatment, when administered shortly after injury, has been shown to promote neural protection in rodent TBI models. The mechanism of TH protection, however, is not established. We used mouse primary cortical neurons to investigate the effectiveness and mechanism of T3-promoted cell survival after exposure to hypoxic injury. Cultured primary cortical neurons were exposed to hypoxia (0.2% oxygen) for 7 hours, in either the presence or absence of T3 (5 nM). T3 treatment enhanced DNA 5-hydroxymethylcytosin (5-hmc) levels and attenuated the hypoxia-induced increase in DNA 5-methylcytosin (5-mc). In the presence of T3, mRNA expression of Tet family genes was increased and DNA methyltransferases, (Dnmt) 3a and Dnmt3b, were downregulated, compared to conditions in the absence of T3. These T3-induced changes decreased hypoxia-induced DNA de novo methylation, which reduced hypoxia-induced neuronal damage and apoptosis. We utilized RNA-seq to characterize T3-regulated genes in cortical neurons under hypoxic conditions and identified 22 genes that were upregulated and 15 genes that were downregulated. Krupple-like factor 9 (KLF9), a multifunctional transcription factor that plays a key role in CNS development, was highly upregulated by T3 treatment in hypoxic conditions. Knockdown of the KLF9 gene resulted in early apoptosis and abolished the beneficial role of T3 in neuronal survival. KLF9 mediates, in part, the neuronal protective role of T3. T3 treatment reduces hypoxic damage and acts through pathways that reduce DNA methylation and apoptosis.

Proteomic analysis of hippocampal proteins in moderate hepatic encephalopathy rat model

Project description:Hepatic Encephalopathy is the brain disorder caused by liver damage, characterized by cognitive and motor impairments. Glutamate a predominant excitatory neurotransmitter over activate post-synaptic neuron via NMDAR receptors leads to neuronal derangement. NMDAR as a therapeutic target is not viable option due to its crucial role in brain physiology. In order to discover new non-NMDAR therapeutic targets high resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) technique was used for proteomic profiling of the hippocampal proteins in Moderate hepatic encephalopathy (MoHE) rat model.

Global transcriptomic profiling of hypoxic ischemia in an in vivo neonatal mouse model: cortex

Project description:Hypoxia-ischemia (HI) brain damage is one of the most common causes of neonatal brain injuries, amidst other conditions such as intrauterine infection and perinatal cerebral hemorrhage (Bracci et al., 2006). HI, occurring during the perinatal period, severely affects brain integrity resulting in detrimental long-term neurological morbidity in terms of motor, intellectual, educational and neuropsychological performance deficits (e.g. cerebral palsy, mental retardation, learning disability and epilepsy), and even neonatal mortality (Cowan et al., 2003; Ferriero, 2004; van Handel et al., 2007; Shalak and Perlman, 2004). Current therapeutic interventions fail to provide substantial reversal of HI brain injuries and improvement in overall cognitive function. Recent clinical studies demonstrated that post-HI hypothermia provide moderate neuroprotection but fail to show any significant reduction in neonatal morbidity and mortality (Shankaran et al., 2005). We would like to investigate the transcriptional effects of HI on neonatal brain, and if hypoxic pre-conditioning is beneficial to the reduction of brain damage. Microarray analysis was performed on the cortex of neonatal brains using Illumina mouse Ref8 V2 genechips. The right common carotid artery was exposed through a ventral midline neck incision and permanently occluded by electrocoagulation, The wound was sutured and mouse pups were returned to their mother for 1.5M-bM-^@M-^S2 h. Sham control and pre-conditioned mice (n = 4) underwent the identical procedure, without carotid artery occlusion. Pups were then placed in an 8% O2/92% N2 humidified chamber at 37M-BM-0C for 1 h with tissue extraction taking place 3h, 8h and 24h thereafter (n=4 respectively). Sham controls were included in this study too (n=4 respectively).
