Project description:In current clinical practice care of diseased patients is often restricted to separated disciplines. However, such an organ-centered approach is not always suitable. For example, cognitive dysfunction is a severe burden in heart failure patients. Moreover, these patients have an increased risk for age-associated dementias. The underlying molecular mechanisms are presently unknown and thus corresponding therapeutic strategies to improve cognition in heart failure patients are missing. Using mice as model organisms we show that heart failure leads to specific changes in hippocampal gene-expression, a brain region intimately linked to cognition. These changes reflect increased cellular stress pathways which eventually lead to loss of neuronal euchromatin and reduced expression of a hippocampal gene cluster essential for cognition. Consequently, mice suffering from heart failure exhibit impaired memory function. These pathological changes are ameliorated via the administration of a drug that promotes neuronal euchromatin formation. Our study provides first insight to the molecular processes by which heart failure contributes to neuronal dysfunction and point to novel therapeutic avenues to treat cognitive defects in heart failure patients.

Project description:Background: Aging is accompanied by altered thinking (cognition) and feeling (mood) functions that depend to some extent on information processing by brain cortical cell microcircuits. We hypothesized that age-associated long-term functional and biological changes are mediated by gene transcriptomic changes within neuronal cell-types forming cortical microcircuits, namely excitatory pyramidal cells (PYC) and inhibitory GABAergic neurons expressing vasoactive intestinal peptide (Vip), somatostatin (Sst) and parvalbumin (Pvalb). Methods: To test this hypothesis, we assessed locomotor, anxiety-like and cognitive behavioral changes between young (2 months, n=9) and old (22 months, n=12) male C57BL/6 mice, and performed frontal cortex cell-type specific molecular profiling, using laser-capture microscopy and RNA sequencing. Results: Old-mice displayed increased anxiety and reduced working memory. The four cell-types displayed distinct age-related transcriptomes and biological pathway profiles, affecting metabolic and cell signaling pathways, and selective markers of neuronal vulnerability (Ryr3), resilience (Oxr1), and mitochondrial dynamics (Opa1), suggesting high age-related vulnerability of PYCs, and variable degree of adaptation in GABAergic neurons. Correlations between gene expression and behaviors suggest that changes in cognition and anxiety associated with age are partly mediated by normal age-related cell changes, and that additional age-independent decreases in synaptic and signaling pathways, notably in PYC and SST-neurons further contribute to behavioral changes. Conclusions: Our study demonstrates cell-dependent differential vulnerability and coordinated cell-specific cortical microcircuit molecular changes with age. Collectively, the results suggest intrinsic molecular links between aging, cognition and mood-related behaviors with SST-neurons contributing evenly to both behavioral conditions.
