Integrative analysis of disease signatures shows inflammation disrupts juvenile experience-dependent cortical plasticity

ABSTRACT: Throughout childhood and adolescence, periods of heightened neuroplasticity are critical for the development of healthy brain function and behavior. Given the high prevalence of neurodevelopmental disorders such as autism, identifying disruptors of developmental plasticity represents an essential step for developing strategies for prevention and intervention. Applying a novel computational approach that systematically assessed connections between 436 transcriptional signatures of disease and multiple signatures of neuroplasticity, we identified inflammation as a common pathological process central to a diverse set of diseases predicted to dysregulate plasticity signatures. We tested the hypothesis that inflammation disrupts developmental cortical plasticity in vivo using the mouse ocular dominance model of experience-dependent plasticity in primary visual cortex. We found administration of systemic lipopolysaccharide suppressed plasticity during juvenile critical period with accompanying transcriptional changes in a particular set of molecular regulators within primary visual cortex. These findings suggest inflammation may have unrecognized adverse consequences on the postnatal developmental trajectory and indicates that treating inflammation may reduce the burden of neurodevelopmental disorders.

A temporal map of maternal immune activation-induced changes reveals a shift in neurodevelopmental timing and perturbed cortical development in mice

Project description:Background: Environmental insults that activate the maternal immune system are potent primers of developmental neuropathology and maternal immune activation (MIA) has emerged as a risk factor for neurodevelopmental and psychiatric disorders. Animal models of MIA provide an opportunity to identify molecular pathways that initiate disease processes and lead to neuropathology and behavioral deficits in offspring. MIA-induced behaviors are accompanied by anatomical and neurochemical alterations in adult offspring that parallel those seen in affected human populations. Methods: We performed transcriptional profiling and neuroanatomical characterization in a time course across mouse embryonic cortical development, following MIA via single injection of the viral mimic polyinosinic:polycytidylic acid (polyI:C) at E12.5. Transcriptional changes identified in the cortex of MIA offspring at E17.5 were validated and mapped to cortical neuroanatomy and cell types via protein analysis and immunohistochemistry. Results: MIA induced strong transcriptomic signatures, including induction of genes associated with hypoxia, immune signaling, and angiogenesis. The acute response identified 6h after the MIA insult was followed by changes in proliferation, neuronal and glial differentiation, and cortical lamination that emerged at E14.5 and peaked at E17.5. Decreased numbers of proliferative cell types in germinal zones and alterations in neuronal and glial cell types across cortical lamina were identified in the MIA-exposed cortex. Conclusions: MIA-induced transcriptomic signatures in fetal offspring overlap significantly with perturbations identified in neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs), and provide novel insights into alterations in molecular and developmental timing processes linking MIA and neuropathology, potentially revealing new targets for development of novel approaches for earlier diagnosis and treatment of these disorders.

Changes in miRNA expression in mouse primary visual cortex following visual deprivation

Project description:Visual deprivation, either in the form of dark rearing (DR) or monocular deprivation (MD) are established paradigms for studying cortical plasticity. We have used miRNA microarray to uncover miRNAs whose expression is altered in primary visual cortex following DR and/or MD. C57BL6 mice were reared in normal light and dark conditions (control) till P28, in complete darkness since birth (DR) till P28, or were grown in normal light/dark conditions from birth till P24 and then subjected to lid suturing of one eye till P28. Mice were euthanized at P28 and their primary visual cortex areas were excised and subjected to RNA isolation. In the case of MD mice only the contralateral to lid suture primary visual cortex was extracted. 100ng of total RNA (tested and quantified using the Agilent Bioanalyzer 2100) were labeled using the Agilent miRNA labeling system and hybridized to Agilent murine miRNA arrays. Microarrays were hybridized overnight at 64 ºC, scanned using an Agilent scanner and extracted with Agilent feature extractor 10.1.

Epigenetic priming of memory updating during reconsolidation to attenuate remote fear memories

Project description:Remembrances of traumata range among the most enduring forms of memories. Despite the elevated lifetime prevalence of anxiety disorders, effective strategies to attenuate long-term traumatic memories are scarce. The most efficacious treatments to diminish recent (i.e., day-old) traumata capitalize on memory updating mechanisms during reconsolidation that are initiated upon memory recall. Here, we show that in mice successful reconsolidation-updating paradigms for recent memories fail to attenuate remote (i.e., month-old) ones. We find that whereas recent memory recall induces a limited period of hippocampal neuroplasticity mediated, in part, by S-nitrosylation of HDAC2 and histone acetylation, such plasticity is absent for remote memories. However, by using an HDAC2-targeting inhibitor (HDACi) during reconsolidation, even remote memories can be persistently attenuated. This intervention epigenetically primes the expression of neuroplasticity-related genes as revealed by whole genome RNA sequencing, which is accompanied by higher metabolic, synaptic and structural plasticity. Thus, applying HDACis during memory reconsolidation might constitute a treatment option for remote traumata. 3 biological replicates per group were analyzed. The material analyzed was whole hippocampi from one brain hemisphere, from which total RNA was extracted.

Effect of Juvenile Environmental Tobacco Smoke Exposure on the Rat Frontal Cortex Neuroproteome

Project description:Exposure to secondhand tobacco smoke during early childhood has been linked with an increased risk for behavioral disorders, yet little is known regarding how brain development is impacted. Using an environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) passive inhalation model, this study assesses the neurodevelopmental impact of juvenile exposure during a critical period of frontal cortex development, specifically that of the rat orbital neocortex between postnatal days 8 and 22. Agnostic shotgun proteomics was employed to discern the biomolecular shift within this rapidly developing brain region that is responsible for higher-order behavioral control. The orbital cortex neuroproteome was assessed between ETS-exposed and room-air control animals employing a label-free shotgun approach with data-independent acquisition. Following protein roll-up, a total of X protein were found statistically altered in quantity out of Y total proteins identified. These results implicate a prominent shift within metabolic processes and synaptic organization related to excitatory and inhibitory neurotransmission. Findings derived from this dataset may further our understanding of how secondhand smoke exposure can perturb the orbital frontal cortex and result in developmental behavioral disorders.

MiR-29 coordinates age-dependent plasticity brakes in the adult visual cortex

Project description:Visual cortical circuits show profound plasticity during early life and are later stabilized by molecular "brakes" limiting excessive rewiring beyond a critical period. The mechanisms coordinating the expression of these factors during the transition from development to adulthood remain unknown. We found that miR-29a expression in the visual cortex dramatically increases with age, but it is not experience-dependent. Precocious high levels of miR-29a blocked ocular dominance plasticity and caused an early appearance of perineuronal nets. Conversely, inhibition of miR-29a in adult mice using LNA antagomirs activated ocular dominance plasticity, reduced perineuronal nets and restored their juvenile chemical composition. Activated adult plasticity had the typical functional and proteomic signature of critical period plasticity. Transcriptomic and proteomic studies indicated that miR-29a manipulation regulates the expression of plasticity brakes mainly affecting parvalbumin-positive interneurons. These data indicate that miR29a is a master regulator of the plasticity brakes promoting age-dependent stabilization of visual cortical circuits.

MiR-29 coordinates age-dependent plasticity brakes in the adult visual cortex

Project description:Visual cortical circuits show profound plasticity during early life and are later stabilized by molecular "brakes" limiting excessive circuit rewiring beyond a critical period. How the appearance of these factors is coordinated during the transition from development to adulthood remains unknown. We analyzed the role of miR-29a, a miRNA targeting factors involved in several important pathways for plasticity such as extracellular matrix and chromatin regulation. We found that visual cortical miR-29a expression in the visual cortex dramatically increases with age, but it is not experience-dependent. Precocious high levels of miR-29a induced by targeted intracortical injections of a miR-29a mimic blocked ocular dominance plasticity and caused an early appearance of perineuronal nets. Conversely, inhibition of miR-29a in adult mice using LNA antagomirs activated ocular dominance plasticity, reduced perineuronal net intensity and number, and changed their chemical composition restoring permissive low chondroitin 4-O-sulfation levels characteristic of juvenile mice. Activated adult plasticity had the typical functional and proteomic signature of juvenile plasticity. Transcriptomic and proteomic studies indicated that miR-29a manipulation regulates the expression of plasticity factors acting at different cellular levels, from chromatin regulation to synaptic organization and extracellular matrix remodeling. Intriguingly, the projection of miR-29a regulated gene dataset onto cell-specific transcriptomes revealed that parvalbumin-positive interneurons and oligodendrocytes were the most affected cells. Overall, miR29a is a master regulator of the age-dependent plasticity brakes promoting stability of visual cortical circuits.
