Basal expression in daDREAM transgenic mouse hippocampus

ABSTRACT: Changes in nuclear Ca2+ homeostasis activate specific gene expression programs and are central to the acquisition and the plastic storage of memories. DREAM /KChIP proteins form heterotetramers that bind DNA and repress transcription in a Ca2+-dependent manner. Single ablation of one member of the DREAM/KChIP family may result in a mild or the absence of phenotype due to partial gene compensation. To study the function of DREAM/KChIP proteins in the brain, we used transgenic mice expressing a Ca2+-insensitive/CREB-independent dominant active mutant DREAM (daDREAM). We show that daDREAM controls the expression of several activity-dependent transcription factors including Npas4, Nr4a1, Mef2C, JunB and c-Fos, as well as the chromatin modifying enzyme Mbd4 and proteins related to actin polymerization like Arc and gelsolin. Thus, directly or through these targets, expression of daDREAM in the forebrain resulted in a complex phenotype characterized by i) impaired learning and memory, ii) loss of recurrent inhibition and enhanced LTP in the dentate gyrus without affecting Kv4-mediated potassium currents, and iii) modified spine density in DG granule neurons. Our results propose DREAM as a master-switch transcription factor regulating several activity-dependent gene expression programs to control synaptic plasticity, learning and memory.

Our results propose DREAM as a master-switch transcription factor regulating several activity-dependent gene expression programs to control synaptic plasticity, learning and memory. We used Affymetrix microarrays (GeneChip Mouse Genome 430 2.0) to compare global gene expression in wild type (WT) versus transgenic hippocampi (L26 mice). For ech type of sample three hybridizations were carried-out (independent biological replicates).

Transcriptomic analysis of the cerebellum of daDREAM mice

Project description:DREAM (downstream regulatory element antagonist modulator) is a Ca2+-binding protein that binds DNA and represses transcription in a Ca2+-dependent manner. Previous studies have shown a role for DREAM in cerebellar function regulating the expression of the sodium/calcium exchanger3 (NCX3) in cerebellar granules to control Ca2+ homeostasis and survival of these neurons. To achieve a more global view of the genes regulated by DREAM in the cerebellum, we performed a genome-wide analysis in transgenic cerebellum expressing a Ca2+-insensitive/CREB-independent dominant active mutant DREAM (daDREAM). Our results indicate that DREAM is a major transcription factor in the cerebellum that regulates genes important for cerebellar development. We used Affymetrix microarrays (GeneChip Mouse Genome 430 2.0) to compare global gene expression in wild type (WT) versus transgenic cerebellum cells. For ech type of sample three hybridizations were carried-out (independent biological replicates).

Cav3.2 T-type calcium channel-dependent gene expression after retrieval of context-associated memory (right hippocampus)

Project description:Among all voltage-gated calcium channels, the T-type Ca2+ channels encoded by the Cav3 genes are highly expressed in the hippocampus, which is associated with contextual, temporal and spatial learning and memory. However, the specific involvement of the Cav3.2 T-type Ca2+ channel in these hippocampus-dependent types of learning and memory remains unclear. To investigate the functional role of the 1H channel in learning and memory, we subjected Cav3.2 homozygous, heterozygous knockout and their wild-type littermates to hippocampus-dependent behavioral tasks, including trace fear conditioning (TFC), the Morris water-maze and passive avoidance. The Cav3.2-/- mice performed normally in the Morris water-maze and auditory trace fear conditioning tasks but were impaired in the context-cued trace fear conditioning, step-down and step-through passive avoidance tasks. Furthermore, long-term potentiation (LTP) could be induced for 180 minutes in hippocampal slices of WTs and Cav3.2+/- mice, whereas LTP persisted for only 120 minutes in Cav3.2-/- mice. To determine whether the hippocampal formation is responsible for the impaired behavioral phenotypes , we next performed experiments locally knock down function of the Cav3.2 T-type Ca2+ channel in the hippocampus. Wild-type mice infused with mibefradil exhibited similar behaviors as homozygous knockouts. Finally, microarray analyses indicated that Cav3.2-/- and WT mice presented distinct hippocampal transcriptome profiles. Taken together, our results demonstrate that retrieval of context-associated memory is dependent on the Cav3.2 T-type Ca2+ channel. After WT and Cav3.2 KO mice retrieval of context-associated memory, three right hippocampi of each group were dissected, pooled together and homogenized. The products of experimental and naive groups were used to acquire expression profiles of a total of 29,922 unique genes. Two replicates per group.

Activity-Induced DNA Breaks Govern the Expression of Neuronal Early-Response Genes

Project description:Neuronal activity causes the rapid expression of immediate early genes that are crucial for experience driven changes to synapses, learning, and memory. Here, using both molecular and genome-wide next generation sequencing methods, we report that neuronal activity stimulation triggers the formation of DNA double strand breaks (DSBs) in the promoters of a subset of early-response genes, including Fos, Npas4, and Egr1. Generation of targeted DNA DSBs within Fos and Npas4 promoters is sufficient to induce their expression even in the absence of an external stimulus. Activity-dependent DSB formation is likely mediated by the type II topoisomerase, Topoisomerase IIb (Topo IIb), and knockdown of Topo IIb attenuates both DSB formation and early response gene expression following neuronal stimulation. Our results suggest that DSB formation is a physiological event that rapidly resolves topological constraints to early-response gene expression in neurons. Generation of sequencing data from ChIP-seq with antibodies against γH2AX and Topo IIβ after neuronal activity stimulation, and RNA-seq after etoposide treatment

DREAM silencing is part of a neuroprotective mechanism in Huntington's disease

Project description:Deregulated intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis underlies synaptic dysfunction and is a common feature in neurodegenerative processes, including Huntington's disease (HD). DREAM/calsenilin/KChIP-3 is a multifunctional Ca2+ binding protein that controls the expression level and/or the activity of several proteins related to Ca2+ homeostasis, neuronal excitability and neuronal survival. We found that expression of endogenous DREAM (DRE antagonist modulator) is reduced in the striatum of R6 mice, in STHdh-Q111/111 knock in striatal neurons and in HD patients. DREAM down regulation in R6 striatum occurs early after birth, well before the onset of motor coordination impairment, and could be part of an endogenous mechanism of neuroprotection, since i) R6/2 mice hemizygous for the DREAM gene (R6/2xDREAM+/-) showed delayed onset of locomotor impairment and prolonged lifespan, ii) motor impairment after chronic administration of 3-NPA was reduced in DREAM knockout mice and enhanced in daDREAM transgenic mice and, iii) lentiviral-mediated DREAM expression in STHdh-Q111/111 knock in cells sensitizes them to oxidative stress. Transcriptomic analysis showed that changes in gene expression in R6/2 striatum were notably reduced in R6/2xDREAM+/- striatum. Chronic administration of repaglinide, a molecule able to bind to DREAM in vitro and to accelerate its clearance in vivo, delayed the onset of motor dysfunction, reduced striatal loss and prolonged the lifespan in R6/2 mice. Furthermore, exposure to repaglinide protected STHdh-Q111/111 knock in striatal neurons sensitized to oxidative stress by lentiviral-mediated DREAM overexpression. Thus, genetic and pharmacological evidences disclose a role for DREAM silencing in early neuroprotective mechanisms in HD.

DREAM regulates gene expression and Ca2+ mobilization in sperm cells

Project description:Calcium influx is a critical event in mammalian fertilization, but the molecular mechanisms that govern the calcium dynamics in spermatozoa in response to physiological stimuli are still poorly understood. In the present work we analyze the role of the Ca2+-dependent transcriptional repressor DREAM (downstream regulatory element antagonist modulator) in spermatozoa using a transgenic mouse line that express a dominant constitutively active DREAM mutant. Genome-wide expression analysis of transgenic mice showed that DREAM modulates gene expression throughout the maturation process of sperm from spermatogonia to mature spermatozoa.
