Project description:Aim: We investigated the effect of acute corticosterone exposure 3 hours after subcutaneous injection on the ventral hippocampus transcriptome. Methods: Adult male mice were used in the experiment. Mice were sacrificed 3 hours after corticosterone (3mg/kg) of vehicle injection and the ventral hippocampus was dissected and snap-frozen. Subsequently, total RNA was isolated and send for 100bp paired-end sequencing by BGI.

Project description:Background: The epididymis has long been of interest owing to its role in promoting the functional maturation of the male germline. More recent evidence has also implicated the epididymis as an important sensory tissue responsible for remodeling of the sperm epigenome, both under physiological conditions and in response to diverse forms of environmental stress. Despite this knowledge, the intricacies of the molecular pathways involved in regulating the adaptation of epididymal tissue to paternal stressors remains to be fully resolved. Objective: The overall objective of this study was to investigate the direct impact of corticosterone challenge on a tractable epididymal epithelial cell line (i.e., mECap18 cells) in terms of driving adaptation of the cellular proteome and phosphoproteome signaling networks. Materials and methods: The newly developed phosphoproteomic platform EasyPhos coupled with sequencing via an Orbitrap Exploris 480 mass spectrometer was applied to survey global changes in the mECap18 cell (phospho)proteome resulting from sub-chronic (10-day) corticosterone challenge.Results: The imposed corticosterone exposure regimen elicited relatively subtle modifications of the global mECap18 proteome [i.e., only 73/4171 (~1.8%) proteins displayed altered abundance]. By contrast, ~15% of the mECap18 phosphoproteome was substantially altered following corticosterone challenge. In-silico analysis of the corresponding parent proteins revealed an activation of pathways linked to DNA damage repair and oxidative stress responses as well as a reciprocal inhibition of pathways associated with organismal death. Corticosterone challenge also induced the phosphorylation of several proteins linked to the biogenesis of microRNAs. Accordingly, orthogonal validation strategies confirmed an increased in DNA damage, which was ameliorated upon selective kinase inhibition, and an altered abundance profile of a subset of microRNAs in corticosterone-treated cells. Conclusions: Together, these data confirm that epididymal epithelial cells are reactive to corticosterone challenge and that their response is tightly coupled to the opposing action of cellular kinases and phosphatases.

Project description:The aim of the experiment was to test the effect of elevated level of corticosterone on hippocampal transcriptome after 12 hours of treatment during active phase to mimic the effect of a day-long stress. Additionally, we also tested the decay time of transcriptomic response during resting period when the level of glucocorticoids returns to the baseline. Our study shows that transcriptomic responses to glucocorticoids are heterogenous in terms of the decay time with some genes displaying persistent changes in expression during 9 hours of rest.

Project description:Chronic, sustained exposure to stressors can profoundly impact tissue homeostasis, although the mechanisms by which these changes occur are largely unknown. Here, we report the adrenal gland-derived stress hormone corticosterone (the rodent equivalent of cortisol) regulates hair follicle stem cell (HFSC) quiescence and hair growth in mice. Without systemic corticosterone, HFSCs enter substantially more rounds of the regeneration cycle throughout life. Conversely, under chronic stress, elevated corticosterone levels prolong HFSC quiescence and keep hair follicles in an extended resting phase. Mechanistically, corticosterone acts on dermal papilla (DP) to suppress the expression of a secreted factor, Growth Arrest Specific 6 (Gas6). Restoring Gas6 expression overcomes stress-induced inhibition of HFSC activation and hair growth. Our work identifies corticosterone as a systemic inhibitor of HFSC activity via its impact on the niche, and demonstrates that removal of such inhibition drives HFSCs into frequent regeneration cycles with no observable defects long-term.

Project description:ATGL is the key enzyme in intracellular lipolysis playing a critical role in metabolic and cardiovascular diseases. ATGL is tightly regulated through a known set of protein-protein interaction partners with activating or inhibiting functions in control of lipolysis. However, the binding mode and protein interaction sites of ATGL and its partners are unknown. Using deep mutational protein interaction perturbation scanning we generated comprehensive profiles of single amino acid variants effecting the interactions of ATGL with its regulatory partners: CGI-58, G0S2, PLIN1, PLIN5 and CIDEC. Twenty-three ATGL variants gave a specific interaction perturbation pattern when validated in co-immunoprecipitation experiments in mammalian cells. We identified and characterized eleven, highly selective ATGL “switch” mutations which affect the interaction of one of the five partners without affecting the others. Switch mutations thus provided distinct interaction determinants for ATGL’s key regulatory proteins at an amino acid resolution. When tested for triglyceride hydrolase activity in vitro and lipolysis in cells, the activity patterns of the ATGL switch variants traced to their protein interaction profile. In the context of structural data, the integration of variant binding and activity profiles provided important insights into lipolysis regulation and the impact of mutations in human disease.

Project description:Autophagy is essential for cellular survival and energy homeostasis under nutrient deprivation. Despite the emerging importance of nuclear events in autophagy regulation, epigenetic control of autophagy gene transcription remains unclear. Here, we identify Jumonji-D3 (JMJD3/KDM6B) histone demethylase as a key epigenetic activator of hepatic autophagy. Upon fasting-induced fibroblast growth factor-21 (FGF21) signaling, JMJD3 epigenetically upregulated global autophagy-network genes, including Tfeb, Atg7, Atgl, and Fgf21, through demethylation of histone H3K27-me3, resulting in autophagy-mediated lipid degradation. Mechanistically, phosphorylation of JMJD3 at Thr-1044 by FGF21 signal-activated PKA increased its nuclear localization and interaction with the nuclear receptor PPARto transcriptionally activate autophagy. Chronic administration of FGF21 in obese mice improved defective autophagy and hepatosteatosis in a JMJD3-dependent manner. Remarkably, in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease patients, hepatic expression of JMJD3, ATG7, LC3, and KL were substantially decreased. These findings demonstrate that FGF21-JMJD3 signaling epigenetically links nutrient deprivation with hepatic autophagy and lipid degradation in mammals

Project description:Animal models represent a very useful tool for the study of depressive-like behaviour and for the evaluation of the therapeutic efficacy of antidepressants. Nevertheless, gene expression patterns of these different animal models and whether genes classically associated to human major depression are present in these genetic profiles remain unknown. Gene expression was evaluated in an animal model of depression: corticosterone-treated rats. Gene expression analyses were carried out using the Affymetrix® GeneChip® technology. Experiment Overall Design: In total, 19 animals were studied, 10 corticosterone-treated rats and 9 control rats
