Project description:Arid1b is a chromatin remodeler implicated in neurodevelopmental disorders. Arid1b mutant mice with haploinsufficiency (Arid1b HT) displayed persistent excitatory synaptic dysfunction from juvenile to adult stage, decreased synaptic density and transmission. Moreover, they showed autistic-like behaviors in both of early and adult stages, decreased sociability in pup USV calling and adult social interaction, and adult repetitive grooming. To investigate pup stage transcriptomic changes in Arid1b mutant mice, RNAseq analysis of whole brain from wild-type and Arid1b mutant mice at postnatal day 3 was done. Transcriptomic changes support these electrophysiological and behavioral deficits. Arid1b HT mice at postnatal day 3 showed alterations in genes implicated in synaptic functions and ASD.

Project description:Arid1b is a chromatin remodeler implicated in neurodevelopmental disorders. Arid1b mutant mice with haploinsufficiency (Arid1b HT) displayed persistent excitatory synaptic dysfunction from juvenile to adult stage, decreased synaptic density and transmission. Moreover, they showed autistic-like behaviors in both of early and adult stages, decreased sociability in pup USV calling and adult social interaction, and adult repetitive grooming. We found that early chronic fluoxetine treatment could carry out long-lasting restoration in electrophysiological and behavioral deficits in Arid1b HT mice. Prefrontal cortex specific transcriptomic analysis with mice at postnatal day 120 which underwent chronic fluoxetine treatment from postnatal day 3 to postnatal day 21 via mammillary milk was done to investigate transcriptomic reprogramming which contributes to this restoration.

Next, we found that early chronic fluoxetine treatment could carry out long-lasting restoration in electrophysiological and behavioral deficits in Arid1b HT mice. Whole brain transcriptomic analysis with mice at postnatal day 120 which underwent chronic fluoxetine treatment from postnatal day 3 to postnatal day 21 via mammillary milk was done to figure out transcriptomic reprogramming which contributes to this restoration. Comparing fluoxetine treated Arid1b HT mice and vehicle group, fluoxetine treated mice showed upregulation of synapse-related genes and disease related gene sets with reverse-ASD directions.

Project description:CHD8, encoding a chromatin remodeling protein, is one of the most frequently mutated genes in autism spectrum disorders. However, how such mutations cause autistic behaviors remain unclear. In mice carrying a heterozygous frame-shift mutation in the Chd8 gene (Asn2373LysfsX2) identified in autistic human individuals, we observed autistic-like behaviors that are much stronger in males than in females, similar to human cases. These behaviors included enhanced mother-seeking ultrasonic vocalizations in pups, mother-attachment behaviors in juveniles, and isolation-induced self-grooming in adults. These behaviors were associated with opposite changes in synaptic excitation/inhibition and neuronal firing in male and female mice, but with strong changes in gene expression in female mice. Therefore, this CHD8 mutation may cause male-preponderant autistic-like behaviors in mice through differential synaptic/neuronal changes and gene expression

Project description:Background - One of the causal mechanisms underlying neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) is chromatin modification, and the genes that regulate chromatin. AT-Rich Interactive Domain 1B (ARID1B), a chromatin modifier, has been shown to be reduced in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and to affect rare and inherited genetic variation in a broad set of NDDs. Methods - A novel preclinical mouse model of Arid1b deficiency was created and validated to characterize and define neuroanatomical, behavioural and tran¬scriptional phenotypes. Neuroanatomy was assessed ex vivo in adult animals and in vivo longitudinally from birth to adulthood. Behavioural testing was also performed throughout development and tested all aspects of motor, learning, sociability, repetitive behaviours, seizure susceptibility and general milestones delays. Results – We validated decreased Arid1b mRNA and protein in Arid1b+/- mice, with signatures of increased axonal and synaptic gene expression and decreased transcriptional regulator and RNA processing expression in adult Arid1b+/- cerebellum. During neonatal development, Arid1b+/- mice exhibited robust impairments in ultrasonic vocalizations (USVs) and metrics of developmental growth. In addition, a striking sex dependence was observed throughout development; males had an early emergence of this neuroanatomical phenotype at postnatal day 7, whereas females had a delayed emergence around postnatal day 40. Behaviourally, as adults, Arid1b+/- mice showed low motor skills in open field exploration and normal three chambered approach. Arid1b+/- mice had learning and memory deficits in novel object recognition but not in visual discrimination and reversal touchscreen tasks. Social interactions in the male-female social dyad with USVs revealed social deficits on some but not all parameters. No repetitive behaviours were observed. Brains of adult Arid1b+/- mice had a smaller cerebellum and a larger hippocampus and corpus callosum. These results stand in contrast to previously reported data highlighting losses in corpus callosum volume in mice. Limitations – The behaviour and neuroimaging analyses were done on separate cohorts of mice, which did not allow a direct correlation between the imaging and behavioural findings, and the transcriptomic analyses was exploratory, with no validation of altered expression beyond Arid1b. Conclusions – This study represents a full validation and investigation of a novel model of Arid1b+/- haploinsufficiency throughout development and highlights the importance of examining both sexes throughout development in NDDs.

Project description:Shank2 is an abundant excitatory postsynaptic scaffolding protein implicated in neurodevelopmental disorders, including autism spectrum disorders (ASD), intellectual disability, developmental delay, and schizophrenia. Shank2-mutant mice with a homozygous deletion of exons 6 and 7 (Shank2-HM mice) show ASD-like behavioral deficits and altered synaptic functions, although little is known about how different brain regions contribute to Shank2-mutant phenotypes. Here we attempted transcriptomic analyses of the prefrontal cortex, hippocampus, and striatum in adult Shank2-heterozygous/HT and Shank2-homozygous/HM mice. The mutant cortex, hippocampus, and striatum displayed distinct sets of differentially expressed genes associated with neuronal and synaptic functions in a gene dosage-differential manner. Gene set enrichment analyses of cortical Shank2-HT transcripts revealed increased synaptic gene expression and transcriptomic changes that are opposite to those observed in ASD (reverse-ASD), whereas cortical Shank2-HM transcripts displayed decreased synaptic gene expression and ASD-like transcriptomic patterns. The hippocampal Shank2-HT transcripts displayed minimally altered synaptic gene expression and mixed ASD-like and reverse-ASD patterns, whereas the Shank2-HM-hippocampus showed increased synaptic gene expression and reverse-ASD patterns. The striatal Shank2-HT/HM transcriptomes were largely similar to the hippocampal transcriptomes, although the main changes were observed in cell-type-specific genes, unlike the hippocampal changes mainly involving ASD-related/risk genes. These results indicate that heterozygous and homozygous Shank2 deletions in mice lead to brain region- and gene dosage-differential transcriptomic changes.

Project description:Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are ~4-times more common in males than females, and CHD8 (a chromatin remodeler)-related ASD shows a strong male bias (~5:1), although the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Chd8-mutant mice with a C-terminal protein-truncating mutation (N2373X) display male-preponderant behavioral deficits as juveniles and adults, although whether this also applies to other Chd8 mutations remains unknown. Here we report that new Chd8-mutant mice with a stronger N-terminal protein-truncating mutation (S62X) display male-preponderant autistic-like behaviors at juvenile stages, but as adults, both males and females share behavioral deficits. Excitatory synaptic transmission is suppressed and enhanced in male and female juvenile Chd8+/S62X mice, respectively, but similarly enhanced in adults. ASD-like transcriptomic changes occur monophasically in newborn and juvenile (but not adult) males but biphasically in newborn and adult (not juvenile) females. Therefore, a strong CHD8 mutation induces early-onset ASD-like phenotypes in males but late-onset phenotypes in females after juvenile-stage female protection.

Project description:Shank3 is an abundant excitatory postsynaptic scaffolding proteins implicated in various neurodevelopmental and psychiatric disorders, including ASD, Phelan-McDermid syndrome, intellectual disability, and schizophrenia. Shank3-mutant mice with a homozygous deletion of exons 14-16 (Shank3-HM mice) show ASD-like behavioral deficits and altered synaptic and neuronal functions, but little is known about how different ages, brain regions, and gene dosages contribute to transcriptomic phenotypes in these mice. Here, we performed RNA-Seq-based transcriptomic analyses of the prefrontal cortex, hippocampus, and striatum in adult Shank3 heterozygous- and homozygous-mutant mice. In addition, juvenile and adult Shank3 homozygous-mutant forebrain transcriptomes were compared. Juvenile and adult forebrain transcriptomes from Shank3 homozygous-mutant mice showed the patterns that are opposite and similar to those observed in ASD: reverse-ASD and ASD-like patterns, respectively. Here, the juvenile reverse-ASD pattern involved synaptic gene upregulations and ribosomal and mitochondrial downregulations, whereas the adult ASD-like pattern involved opposite changes. Gene set enrichment analyses (GSEA) of brain regional transcripts in adult Shank3-HT and Shank3-HM mice revealed that the cortical, hippocampal, and striatal transcripts show distinctly altered biological functions and ASD-related/risk gene expressions. The cortex and striatum display ASD-like patterns whereas the hippocampus displays reverse-ASD patterns. The cortical ASD-like pattern more strongly involves ASD-risk genes whereas the striatal ASD-like pattern more strongly involves astrocyte/microglia genes. Shank3-HT and Shank3-HM transcripts in a given brain region display largely similar patterns in biological functions and ASD-related/risk gene expressions, suggestive of small gene dosage effects. These results suggest that heterozygous and homozygous Shank3 deletions in mice lead to age, brain region, and gene dosage-differential transcriptomic changes.
