RNA-Seq in hippocampus of control and Jade2-KO mice

ABSTRACT: Impairment of synaptic plasticity is involved in a range of pathological conditions such as cognitive deficits. However, how synaptic efficacy is regulated is not fully understood. Here, we report that the epigenetic factor Jade family PHD finger 2 (JADE2), which is upregulated by neuronal activities, is critically involved in the maintenance of hippocampal synaptic plasticity and cognitive functions in mice. Knockdown or genetic deletion of JADE2 in hippocampal CA1 results in impaired structural and functional synaptic plasticity, leading to memory impairment, whereas overexpression of JADE2 in CA1 neurons facilitates hippocampal-dependent learning and memory. Mechanistically, we show that JADE2 modulates synaptic functions mainly by transcriptional activation of cytoskeletal protein RAC1, and this activity is dependent on its interaction with histone acetyltransferase HBO1. Together, our findings suggest JADE2 is a critical player for experience-dependent gene regulation in controlling synaptic plasticity and cognitive functions.

Genome-wide RNAseq from multi time point (every 4 hours) rat hippocampi with vehicle and methylprednisolone (MPL) treatment

Project description:Disrupted circadian activity is associated with many neuropsychiatric disorders. A major coordinator of circadian biological systems is adrenal glucocorticoid secretion which exhibits a pronounced pre-awakening peak that regulates metabolic, immune, and cardiovascular processes, as well as mood and cognitive function. Loss of this circadian rhythm during corticosteroid therapy is often associated with memory impairment. Surprisingly the mechanisms that underlie this deficit are not understood. In this study, in rats, we report that circadian regulation of the hippocampal transcriptome integrates crucial functional networks that link corticosteroid-inducible gene regulation to synaptic plasticity processes via an intra-hippocampal circadian transcriptional clock. Further, these circadian hippocampal functions were significantly impacted by corticosteroid treatment delivered in a five day oral dosing treatment protocol. Rhythmic expression of the hippocampal transcriptome, as well as the circadian regulation of synaptic plasticity were misaligned with the natural light/dark circadian entraining cues, resulting in memory impairment in hippocampal-dependent behavior. These findings provide mechanistic insights into how the transcriptional clock machinery within the hippocampus is influenced by corticosteroid exposure, leading to adverse effects on critical hippocampal functions, as well as identifying a molecular basis for memory deficits in patients treated with long-acting synthetic corticosteroids.

Astrocyte-secreted IL-33 mediates homeostatic synaptic plasticity in the adult hippocampus

Project description:Hippocampal synaptic plasticity is important for learning and memory formation. Homeostatic synaptic plasticity is a specific form of synaptic plasticity that is induced upon prolonged changes in neuronal activity to maintain network homeostasis. While astrocytes are important regulators of synaptic transmission and plasticity, it is largely unclear how they interact with neurons to regulate synaptic plasticity at the circuit level. Here, we show that neuronal activity blockade selectively increases the expression and secretion of IL-33 (interleukin-33) by astrocytes in the hippocampal cornu ammonis 1 (CA1) subregion. This IL-33 stimulates an increase in excitatory synapses and neurotransmission through the activation of neuronal IL-33 receptor complex and synaptic recruitment of the scaffold protein PSD-95. We found that acute administration of tetrodotoxin in hippocampal slices or inhibition of hippocampal CA1 excitatory neurons by optogenetic manipulation increases IL-33 expression in CA1 astrocytes. Furthermore, IL-33 administration in vivo promotes the formation of functional excitatory synapses in hippocampal CA1 neurons, whereas conditional knockout of IL-33 in CA1 astrocytes decreases the number of excitatory synapses therein. Importantly, blockade of IL-33 and its receptor signaling in vivo by intracerebroventricular administration of its decoy receptor inhibits homeostatic synaptic plasticity in CA1 pyramidal neurons and impairs spatial memory formation in mice. These results collectively reveal an important role of astrocytic IL-33 in mediating the negative-feedback signaling mechanism in homeostatic synaptic plasticity, providing insights into how astrocytes maintain hippocampal network homeostasis.

Sleep-active hypothalamic MCH-system modulates hippocampal synaptic plasticity and is vulnerable in early Alzheimer’s Disease

Project description:In Alzheimer’s disease (AD), pathophysiological changes in the hippocampus cause deficits in episodic memory formation, leading to cognitive impairment. Hippocampal hyperactivity and decreased sleep quality are associated with early AD, but their basis is poorly understood. We find that homeostatic mechanisms transiently counteract increased excitatory drive of hippocampal CA1 neurons in AppNL-G-F mice, but fail to stabilize it at control levels. Spatial transcriptomics (ST) analysis identifies the Pmch gene encoding Melanin-Concentrating Hormone (MCH) as part of the adaptive response in AppNL-G-F mice. Hypothalamic MCH peptide is produced in sleep-active lateral hypothalamic neurons that project to CA1 and modulate memory. We show that MCH downregulates synaptic transmission and modulates firing rate homeostasis in hippocampal neurons. Moreover, MCH reverses the increased excitatory drive of CA1 neurons in AppNL-G-F mice. Consistent with our finding that a reduced fraction of MCH-neurons is active in AppNL-G-F mice, these animals spend less time in rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. In addition, MCH-axons projecting to CA1 become progressively impaired in both AppNL-G-F mice and AD patients. Our findings identify the MCH-system as vulnerable in early AD and suggest that impaired MCH-system function contributes to aberrant excitatory drive and sleep defects, which can compromise hippocampal-dependent functions.

Circadian protein TIMELESS regulates synaptic plasticity and memory by modulating cAMP signaling

Project description:Regulation of neurons by circadian clock genes is thought to contribute to the maintenance of neuronal functions that ultimately underlie animal behavior. However, the impact of circadian genes on cellular and molecular mechanisms that influnce synaptic plasticity and cognitive function remain to be identified. Here, we show that conditional deletion of the circadian gene Timeless in the adult forebrain leads to an impairment in working and fear memory in mice. These cognitive phenotypes were accompanied with LTP attenuation of hippocampal Schaffer-collateral synapses. We discovered TIMELESS protein acts as a transcriptional factor regulating phosphodiesterase 4B (PDE4B) expression. Through Pde4b transcription, TIMELESS negatively regulates cAMP signaling to modulate AMPA receptor GluA1 function and fine-tune synaptic plasticity. Our data provide insights into the neuron-specific function of mammalian TIMELESS by defining a mechanism that regulates synaptic plasticity and cognitive function.

MiR-431 attenuates synaptic plasticity and memory deficits in APPswe/PS1dE9 mice

Project description:Synaptic plasticity impairment plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), and emerging evidence has shown that microRNAs (miRNAs) are alternative biomarkers and therapeutic targets for synaptic dysfunctions in AD. In this study, we found that the level of miR-431 was downregulated in the plasma of amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) and AD patients. In addition, it was decreased in the hippocampus and plasma of APPswe/PS1dE9 (APP/PS1) mice. Lentivirus mediated miR-431 overexpression in the hippocampus CA1 ameliorated synaptic plasticity and memory deficits of APP/PS1 mice, while it didn't affect the Aβ levels. Smad4 was identified as a target of miR-431, and Smad4 knockdown modulated the expression of synaptic proteins including SAP102, and protected against synaptic plasticity and memory dysfunctions in APP/PS1 mice. Furthermore, Smad4 overexpression reversed the protective effects of miR-431, indicating that miR-431 attenuated synaptic impairment at least partially by Smad4 inhibition. Thus, these results indicated that miR-431/Smad4 might be a potential therapeutic target for AD treatment.

Expression data from control and mutant TIFIACaMKCreERT2

Project description:We inhibited RNA polymerase I by genetic ablation of the basal transcription factor TIF-IA in adult hippocampal neurons. Nucleolar stress resulted in progressive neurodegeneration, although with a differential vulnerability within the CA1, CA3 and dentate gyrus. Here, we investigate the consequences of nucleolar stress on learning and memory. The mutant mice do not show any impairment in the behavioral memory tests, suggesting the activation of adaptive mechanisms. In fact, we observe a significantly enhanced learning and re-learning corresponding to the initial inhibition of rRNA transcription and accompanied by aberrant synaptic plasticity. To explore the putative molecular mechanisms underlying these adaptative changes we profiled global gene expression of control and TIFIACaMKCreERT2 mutant mice (5-6 mice/genotype) 4 weeks after induction of the mutation (injection of tamoxifen).

Hippocampal gene expression in aged and young HSD1 knockout mice

Project description:Mice deficient in the glucocorticoid-regenerating enzyme 11Î²-HSD1 resist age-related spatial memory impairment. To investigate the mechanisms/pathways involved, we used microarrays to identify differentially expressed hippocampal genes that associate with cognitive ageing and 11Î²-HSD1. Aged wild-type mice were separated into memory-impaired and unimpaired relative to young controls according to their performance in the Y-maze. All individual aged 11Î²-HSD1-deficient mice showed intact spatial memory. The majority of differentially expressed hippocampal genes were increased with ageing (e.g. immune/inflammatory response genes) with no genotype differences. However, the neuronal-specific transcription factor, Npas4 and immediate early gene, Arc were reduced (relative to young) in the hippocampus of memory-impaired but not unimpaired aged wild-type or aged 11Î²-HSD1-deficient mice. Quantitative RT-PCR and in situ hybridization confirmed reduced Npas4 and Arc mRNA expression in memory-impaired aged wild-type mice. These findings suggest that 11Î²-HSD1 may contribute to the decline in Npas4 and Arc mRNA levels associated with memory impairment during ageing, and that decreased activity of synaptic plasticity pathways involving Npas4 and Arc may, in part, underlie the memory deficits seen in cognitively-impaired aged wild-type mice. 20 samples, 5 groups of 4 biological replicates each. Young, Wild Type animals are overall controls

Basic Helix Loop Helix Enhancer 40 Null Mice Have Impaired Synaptic Plasticity, Enhanced Neuronal Excitability, and Decreased Expression of Insulin Degrading Enzyme

Project description:Basic helix loop helix enhancer 40 (Bhlhe40) is a transcription factor expressed in rodent hippocampus, however, its role in neuronal function is not well understood. Here, we used Bhlhe40 null mice on a congenic C57Bl6/J background (Bhlhe40 KO) to investigate the impact of Bhlhe40 on neuronal excitability and synaptic plasticity. A whole genome expression array predicted that Bhlhe40 KO mice have up-regulated insulin-related pathways and down-regulated neuronal signaling-related pathways in the hippocampus. We validated that insulin degrading enzyme mRNA (Ide) and IDE protein are significantly downregulated in Bhlhe40 KO hippocampi. No significant difference was observed in hippocampal insulin levels. In hippocampal slices, we found CA1 neurons have increased miniature excitatory post-synaptic current (mEPSC) amplitude and decreased inhibitory post-synaptic current (IPSC) amplitude, indicating hyper-excitability in CA1 neurons in Bhlhe40 KO mice. At CA1 synapses, we found a reduction in long term potentiation (LTP) and long term depression (LTD), indicating an impairment in hippocampal synaptic plasticity in Bhlhe40 KO hippocampal slices. Bhlhe40 KO mice displayed no difference in seizure response to the convulsant kainic acid (KA) relative to controls. We found that while Bhlhe40 KO mice have decreased exploratory behavior they do not display alterations in spatial learning and memory. Together this suggests that Bhlhe40 plays a role in modulating neuronal excitability and synaptic plasticity ex vivo, however, Bhlhe40 alone does not play a significant role in seizure susceptibility and learning and memory in vivo. In addition, based on the reduction in IDE protein levels in these mice, there may be dysregulation of other known IDE substrates, namely insulin growth factor (Igf)-1, Igf-2, and Amyloid beta (Aβ).

Project description:Patients with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) exhibit progressive memory loss, depression, and anxiety, accompanied by impaired adult hippocampal neurogenesis (AHN). Whether modulating AHN is sufficient to improve these cognitive and noncognitive symptoms in AD remains elusive. Here we report that chronic stimulation of hypothalamic supramammillary nucleus (SuM) during early AD restores AHN in an otherwise impaired neurogenic niche. Strikingly, activation of SuM-enhanced adult-born neurons (ABNs) is sufficient to restore memory and emotion deficits in 5×FAD mice. Interestingly, activation of SuM-enhanced ABNs in AD mice increases CA3 and CA1 activity. To probe ABN-activity-dependent changes, we performed quantitative phosphoproteomics and found activation of SuM-enhanced ABNs promotes activation of the canonical pathways related to synaptic plasticity and microglia phagocytosis. Functional assays further confirm increased CA1 long-term potentiation and enhanced microglia phagocytosis of plaques upon activation of SuM-enhanced ABNs. Our findings reveal a robust AHN-promoting strategy that is sufficient to restore AD-associated deficits and highlight ABN-activity-dependent mechanisms underlying functional improvement in AD.
