Septo-dentate gyrus cholinergic circuits modulate function and morphogenesis of adult neural stem cells through granule cells in mice

ABSTRACT: Dentate gyrus (DG) is a critical structure for spatial memory and adult neurogenesis, and both processes are dynamically regulated by neural circuit activity. It remains unknown how neural circuits orchestrate the molecular landscape of the highly heterogeneous DG to regulate these distinct functions. Here we first report that activation of a cholinergic circuit from Diagonal Band of Broca to DG promotes both neural stem cell (NSC) activation and spatial memory. Furthermore, using single-nucleus RNA-sequencing of DG, we report broad transcriptomic changes across multiple types of mature and adult-born cells in response to cholinergic circuit activation. Notably, various neuronal populations exhibit abundant molecular changes that support synaptic functions crucial for spatial memory; while NSCs exhibit molecular changes that support their structural development and neurogenic proliferation. Interestingly, our electrophysiology and NicheNet analyses reveal granule cells, endothelial cells, and astrocytes as potential intermediaries for cholinergic activity-dependent NSC regulation. Our findings provide cell-type specific molecular mechanisms underlying cholinergic circuit activity-dependent regulation of distinct DG functions.

Hippocampal Subregion Transcriptomic Profiles Associated with Age-Related Changes in Spatial Pattern Separation

Project description:Previous studies of age-related transcriptional changes indicate that cognitive impairments are associated with differentially expressed genes DEGs linked to defined neural systems; however, studies that examine multiple regions of the hippocampus fail to find major links between behavior and transcription in the dentate gyrus DG. The DG is implicated in pattern separation PS and exhibits multiple age-related changes that may affect PS performance. We hypothesize that an age-related decline in PS performance is associated with distinct changes in transcriptional profile, most strongly within the DG compared to other hippocampal subregions. We used a water maze beacon discrimination task to characterize PS in young 5 mo and middle-age 12 mo male F344 rats, followed by a spatial reference memory test. Middle-age rats showed consistent deficits in discriminating two identical beacons compared to young. Reference memory was not different between these two age groups. Interestingly, with increasing spatial overlap between the cues, older animals appeared to compensate for impaired PS performance though greater reliance on spatial reference memory. mRNA sequencing of hippocampal subregions DG, CA1, and CA3 indicated that the DG of middle-age rats expressed more genes correlated with PS performance. In contrast, reliance on a spatial reference memory was associated with differential expression of genes in regions CA1 and CA3. These results indicate that the beacon task is sensitive to PS impairment as early as middle-age, and distinct gene profiles are observed in neural circuits that underlie different strategies used to solve the task.

MicroRNA-124 and -137 cooperativity controls caspase-3 activity through BCL2L13 in hippocampal neural stem cells. [miRNA expression]

Project description:Temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) can develop from alterations in hippocampal structure and circuit characteristics, and can be modeled in mice by administration of kainic acid (KA). Adult neurogenesis in the dentate gyrus (DG) contributes to hippocampal functions and has been reported to contribute to the development of TLE. Some of the phenotypical changes include neural stem and precursor cells (NPSC) apoptosis, shortly after their birth, before they produce hippocampal neurons. Here we explored these early phenotypical changes in the DG 3 days after systemic KA administration to mice. Our specific aim was to understand the molecular mechanisms underlying altered apoptosis levels in NSPC following KA-induced status epilepticus (KA-SE). Accordingly, we chose a multi-omics experimental setup and analyzed DG tissue samples using proteomics, transcriptomics and microRNA profiling techniques. We here present a description of how these date were obtained and provide them to others for further analysis and validation. This may help to further identify and characterize molecular mechanisms involved in the alterations induced shortly after KA-SE in the mouse DG. Total RNA obtained from dentate gyrus 72h after mice were subjected to repeated low dose kainic acid induced status epilepticus or saline i.p. injections

Epigenetic maintenance of neural stem cell quiescence in the adult mouse hippocampus via Setd1a [Cut & Run]

Project description:Quiescence, a hallmark of adult neural stem cells (NSCs), is required for maintaining the NSC pool to support life-long continuous neurogenesis in the adult dentate gyrus (DG). Whether epigenetic mechanisms can maintain NSC quiescence over long term in the adult brain is not well-understood. Here we showed that adult mice with haploinsufficiency of Setd1a, a schizophrenia risk gene encoding a histone H3K4 methyltransferase, exhibited substantially enlarged DG with increased number of dentate granule cells. Deletion of Setd1a specifically in quiescent NSCs in the adult DG promoted their activation and neurogenesis, which was countered by inhibition of histone demethylase LSD1. Mechanistically, RNA sequencing and CUT & RUN analyses of cultured quiescent adult NSCs revealed Setd1a deletion-induced transcriptional changes and Setd1a targets, among which down-regulation of Bhlhe40 promoted quiescent NSC activation in the adult DG. Together, our study revealed a Setd1a-dependent epigenetic mechanism that sustains NSC quiescence in the adult DG.

Excitatory amino acid transporter 1 supports adult hippocampal neural stem cell self-renewal.

Project description:Within the adult mammalian dentate gyrus (DG) of the hippocampus, glutamate stimulates neural stem cell (NSC) self-renewing proliferation, providing a link between adult neurogenesis and local circuit activity. Here, we show that glutamate-induced self-renewal of adult DG NSCs requires glutamate transport via excitatory amino acid transporter 1 (EAAT1) to stimulate lipogenesis. Loss of EAAT1 prevented glutamate-induced self-renewing proliferation of NSCs in vitro and in vivo, with little role evident for canonical glutamate receptors. Transcriptomics and further pathway manipulation revealed that glutamate simulation of NSCs relied on EAAT1 transport-stimulated lipogenesis, likely secondary to intracellular Ca2+ release and glutamate metabolism. Our findings demonstrate a critical, direct role for EAAT1 in stimulating NSCs to support neurogenesis in adulthood, thereby providing insights into a non-canonical mechanism by which NSCs sense and respond their niche.

Intracrine Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Maintains Hippocampal Neural Stem Cell Quiescence

Project description:In the dentate gyrus (DG) of the adult mouse hippocampus, neural stem cells (NSCs) balance self-renewal and differentiation to produce neurons that support hippocampal function. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a well-known supporting factor for adult neurogenesis, but conflicting studies have left it uncertain how VEGF signals to NSCs. Here, we identified a VEGF-VEGFR2 intracrine signaling mechanism within adult DG NSCs that prevents their exhaustion. We show both in vitro and in vivo that NSC-VEGF loss caused cell-autonomous exhaustion of adult DG NSCs. In contrast, extracellular VEGF was neither necessary nor sufficient to maintain NSC quiescence or to stimulate VEGFR2 signaling, most likely due to sheddase-mediated cleavage of extracellular VEGFR2 ligand binding domains. Our findings support an exclusively intracellular mechanism for VEGF signaling in adult DG NSCs, thereby providing resolution to previously conflicting studies and suggesting cellular source can dictate the functional impact of soluble ligands in DG NSCs.

Assessing the Effects of Redox Modifier MnTnBuOE-2-PyP 5+ on Cognition and Hippocampal Physiology Following Doxorubicin, Cyclophosphamide, and Paclitaxel Treatment

Project description:Chemotherapy treatment for breast cancer can induce cognitive impairments often involving oxidative stress. The brain, as a whole, is susceptible to oxidative stress due to its high-energy requirements, limited anaerobic respiration capacities, and limited antioxidant defenses. The goal of the current study was to determine if the manganese porphyrin SOD mimetic MnTnBuOE-2-PyP (MnBuOE) could ameliorate the effects of doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, and paclitaxel (AC-T) on mature dendrite morphology and cognitive function. Four-month-old female C57BL/6 mice received intraperitoneal injections of chemotherapy followed by subcutaneous injections of MnBuOE. Four weeks following chemotherapy treatment, mice were tested for hippocampus-dependent cognitive performance in the Morris water maze. After testing, brains were collected for Golgi staining and molecular analyses. MnBuOE treatment preserved spatial memory during the Morris water-maze. MnBuOE/AC-T showed spatial memory retention during all probe trials. AC-T treatment significantly impaired spatial memory retention in the first and third probe trial (no platform). AC-T treatment decreased dendritic length in the Cornu Ammonis 1 (CA1) and dentate gyrus (DG) areas of the hippocampus while AC-T/MnBuOE maintained dendritic length. Comparative proteomic analysis revealed affected protein networks associated with cell morphology and behavior functions in both the AC-T and AC-T/MnBuOE treatment groups
