Cytosolic dopamine determines hypersensitivity to blunt force trauma [PMD216 EV, cat-1, cat-2]

ABSTRACT: The selective vulnerability of dopaminergic neurons to trauma-induced neurodegeneration is a conserved phenomenon across species, extending from nematodes to humans. However, the molecular mechanisms contributing to this hypersensitivity to blunt force injury remain poorly understood. We find that dopamine oxidation, a key driver of Parkinson’s Disease, extends its toxic role to the acute challenges of blunt force trauma. Ectopic synthesis of dopamine in serotonergic neurons alone proves sufficient in determining neuronal subtype sensitivity to trauma-induced death. While dopaminergic neurons maintain this neurotransmitter in a functional and benign state, trauma-induced subcellular redox imbalances elicit dopamine-dependent cytotoxicity. Perturbing dopamine synthesis and its packaging into synaptic vesicles further demonstrate how cytosolic dopamine is both necessary and sufficient to drive cell loss upon mechanical stress and during aging. Additionally, trauma activates the B-Zip transcription factor, fos-1, which exacerbates this toxic cascade by transcriptionally upregulating the rate-limiting enzyme in dopamine synthesis, cat-2. In summary, our study unravels the molecular intricacies that render dopaminergic neurons uniquely prone to physical perturbation, highlighting a shared vulnerability across different evolutionary lines.

Studying the genetic heterogeneity in mouse dopamine neurons

Project description:Midbrain dopamine neurons project to numerous targets throughout the brain to modulate various behaviors and brain states. Within this small population of neurons exists significant heterogeneity based on physiology, circuitry, and disease susceptibility. Recent studies have shown that dopamine neurons can be subdivided based on gene expression; however, the extent to which genetic markers represent functionally relevant dopaminergic subpopulations has not been fully explored. Here we performed single-cell RNA-sequencing of mouse dopamine neurons and validated studies showing that Neurod6 and Grp are selective markers for dopaminergic subpopulations. Using a combination of multiplex fluorescent in situ hybridization, retrograde labeling, and electrophysiology in mice of both sexes, we defined the anatomy, projection targets, physiological properties, and disease vulnerability of dopamine neurons based on Grp and/or Neurod6 expression. We found that the combinatorial expression of Grp and Neurod6 defines dopaminergic subpopulations with unique features. Grp/Neurod6 dopamine neurons reside in the ventromedial VTA, send projections to the medial shell of the nucleus accumbens, and have noncanonical physiological properties. Grp/Neurod6- DA neurons are found in the VTA as well as in the ventromedial portion of the SNc, where they project selectively to the dorsomedial striatum. Grp-/Neurod6 DA neurons represent a smaller VTA subpopulation, which is preferentially spared in a 6-OHDA model of Parkinson’s disease. Together, our work provides detailed characterization of Neurod6 and Grp expression in the midbrain and generates new insights into how these markers define functionally relevant dopaminergic subpopulations with distinct projection patterns, physiology, and disease vulnerability.

Expression data for C. elegans blunt force trauma

Project description:C. elegans exhibit an age-dependent mechanical stress response to blunt force injury. Stress responses are often defined in part by an elicited cellular transcriptional response. We find in C. elegans that mechanical stress by blunt trauma induces a distinct and age-dependent transcriptional program.

Yin Yang 1 and guanine quadruplexes protect dopaminergic neurons from cellular stress via transmissive dormancy [BG4 CUT&RUN]

Project description:Neurons deploy diverse adaptive strategies to ensure survival and neurotransmission amid cellular stress. When these adaptive pathways are overwhelmed, functional impairment or neurodegeneration follows. Here, we report a scenario where stressed neurons actively induce a state of transmissive dormancy as a protective measure. Examination of dopaminergic neurons surviving severe cellular challenges revealed decreased spontaneous activity accompanied by dynamic control of dopamine metabolism through the transcriptional regulator Yin Yang 1 (YY1). Under these conditions, YY1 increases expression of the vesicular monoamine transporter 2, promoting sequestration of dopamine into synaptic vesicles. Following oxidative stress and subsequent DNA damage, YY1 inhibits dopamine synthesis through stabilization of a guanine quadruplex in intron 10 of tyrosine hydroxylase. This cytoprotective response has the potential to drive circuit inactivation and safeguard neurons by minimizing the toxic accumulation of cytosolic dopamine and inducing a state of neuronal dormancy. In essence, neurons appear to actively prioritize viability over functionality.

Yin Yang 1 and guanine quadruplexes protect dopaminergic neurons from cellular stress via transmissive dormancy [YY1 CUT&RUN]

Project description:Neurons deploy diverse adaptive strategies to ensure survival and neurotransmission amid cellular stress. Yet, when these adaptive pathways are overwhelmed, functional impairment or neurodegeneration follow. Herein we report a scenario where stressed neurons actively adopt a state of transmissive dormancy, despite rapid activation of stress response pathways, as a terminal protective measure. Examination of dopaminergic neurons surviving severe cellular stress, revealed decreased spontaneous activity accompanied by dynamic control of dopamine metabolism through the Yin Yang 1 (YY1) transcriptional regulator. Under conditions of ionic imbalance or oxidative stress, YY1 promotes expression of the SLC18A2 transporter with the capacity to enhance sequestration of dopamine into transport vesicles. Subsequent DNA damage represses the rate-limiting enzyme in dopamine synthesis, tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), through YY1 mediated stabilization of an intronic guanine quadruplex. This cascade has the potential to drive circuit inactivation and safeguard neurons by minimizing the toxic accumulation of cytosolic dopamine and reducing the energetic expenditure associated with cellular depolarization. In essence, neurons appear to actively prioritize viability over functionality.
