Claustrum/dorsal Endopiriform cortex complex cell identity is determined 1 by Nurr1 and regulates hallucinogenic-like states.

ABSTRACT: The Claustrum/dorsal Endopiriform cortex complex (CLA) is an enigmatic brain region with 19 extensive glutamatergic projections to multiple cortical areas. The transcription factor Nurr1 is 20 highly expressed in the CLA, but its role in this region is not understood. By using conditional 21 gene-targeted mice, we show that Nurr1 is a crucial regulator of CLA neuron identity. Although 22 CLA neurons remain intact in the absence of Nurr1, the distinctive gene expression pattern in 23 the CLA is abolished. CLA has been hypothesized to control hallucinations, but little is known 24 of how the CLA responds to hallucinogens. After the deletion of Nurr1 in the CLA, both 25 hallucinogen receptor expression and signaling are lost. Furthermore, functional ultrasound 26 imaging and Neuropixel electrophysiological recordings revealed that the effects of 27 hallucinogenic receptor agonists on functional connectivity between the prefrontal and 28 sensorimotor cortices are altered in Nurr1-ablated mice. Our findings suggest that Nurr1-29 targeted strategies provide new avenues for functional studies of the CLA.

Claustral cell identity is determined by Nurr1 and regulates hallucinogenic-like states

Project description:Nurr1 is a transcription factor, which is highly enriched in the claustrum (CLA), an enigmatic brain region that has been hypothesized to control hallucinations. Here, by using virus mediated deletion in conditional gene-targeted mice, we investigated the role of Nurr1 in CLA. These mice exhibited loss of the CLA transcriptional identity. To further study the role of Nurr1 in CLA we designed conditional Nurr1 knock out mice under D1 receptor promoter (D1R-Nurr1cKO). Accordingly, these mice showed similar results in CLA marker gene expression with the viral-targeted strategy. Moreover, D1R-Nurr1cKO mice exhibited loss of hallucinogen receptor signaling in CLA. Functional ultrasound imaging showed that hallucinogenic serotoninergic and opioidergic receptor agonists increased functional connectivity between prefrontal cortex and somatomotor regions in control mice but not in D1R-Nurr1cKO. Conclusively, we demonstrate that Nurr1 loss ablates CLA cell identity, which may affect hallucinogenic-like states. We then performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RNA-seq of 4 different cells at two time points.

Nurr1 maintains fiber integrity and nuclear-encoded mitochondrial gene expression in dopamine neurons

Project description:Nurr1 (Nr4a2, nuclear receptor subfamily 4 group A member 2) is needed for the development of ventral midbrain dopaminergic neurons, and has been associated with Parkinson's disease. We used mice where the Nurr1 gene is ablated by tamoxifen treatment selectively in dopaminergic neurons. As a control, we used tamoxifen-treated mice where Nurr1 is not ablated. By laser microdissection of neurons selected by their TH1 (Th1l, TH1-like homolog) gene expression, we selected dopaminergic neurons for RNA extraction and high-throughput mRNA sequencing, in order to identify genes regulated by Nurr1. We found the main functional category of Nurr1-regulated genes are the nuclear-encoded mitochondrial genes.

The transcription factor nurr1 exerts concentration-dependent effects on target genes mediating distinct biological processes

Project description:The transcription factor nurr1 plays a pivotal role in the development and maintenance of neurotransmitter phenotype in midbrain dopamine neurons. Conversely, decreased nurr1 expression is associated with a number of dopamine-related CNS disorders, including Parkinson’s disease and drug addiction. In order to better understand the nature of nurr1-responsive genes and their potential roles in dopamine neuron differentiation and survival, we used a neural cellular background in which to generate a number of stable clonal lines with graded nurr1 gene expression that approximated that seen in DA cell-rich human substantia nigra. Gene expression profiling data from these nurr1-expressing clonal lines were validated by quantitative RT-PCR and subjected to bioinformatic analyses. The present study identified a large number of nurr1-responsive genes and demonstrated the potential importance of concentration-dependent nurr1 effects in the differential regulation of distinct nurr1 target genes and biological pathways. These data support the promise of nurr1-based CNS therapeutics for the neuroprotection and/or functional restoration of DA neurons.

NURR1 activation in skeletal muscle controls systemic energy homeostasis (RNA-seq)

Project description:Skeletal muscle plays a central role in the control of metabolism and exercise tolerance. Analysis of muscle enhancers activated after exercise in mice revealed the orphan nuclear receptor NURR1/NR4A2 as a prominent component of exercise-responsive enhancers. We show that exercise enhances the expression of NURR1 and transgenic overexpression of NURR1 in skeletal muscle confers an endurance phenotype in mice. NURR1 expression in skeletal muscle is also sufficient to prevent hyperglycemia and hepatic steatosis by enhancing muscle glucose uptake and storage as glycogen. Furthermore, treatment of obese mice with putative NURR1 agonists increases energy expenditure, improves glucose tolerance, and confers a lean phenotype, mimicking the effects of exercise. These findings identify a key role for NURR1 in governance of skeletal muscle glucose metabolism and reveal a transcriptional link between exercise and metabolism. Our findings also identify NURR1 agonists as possible exercise mimetics with the potential to ameliorate obesity and other metabolic abnormalities.
