Project description:PD is the second most common neurodegenerative disease worldwide with growing prevalence. MPTP is a neurotoxin which causes the appearance of Parkinson's disease (PD) pathology. The involvement of the cholinergic system in PD has been identified decades ago and anti-cholinergic drugs were upon the first drugs used for symptomatic treatment of PD. Of note, MPTP intoxication is a model of choice for symptomatic neuroprotective therapies since it have been quite predictive. Mice were exposed to the dopaminergic neurotoxin 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1, 2, 3, 6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP), with or without the protective acetylcholinesterase (AChE-R) variant. Transgenic AChE-S (the synaptic variant), AChE-R (the shorter, protective variant) and FVB/N control mice were included in this study. Two brain regions were examined: the pre-frontal cortex (PFC) and the striatal caudate-putamen (CPu). Each condition (i.e brain region and transgenic variant) was examined on both naive and MPTP-exposed mice. 29 microarrays including hybridizations of control FVB/N PFC, control FVB/N CPu,control S transgenics PFC, control S transgenics CPu, control R transgenics PFC, control R transgenice CPu, MPTP FVB/N PFC, MPTP FVB/N CPu, MPTP S transgenics PFC, MPTP S transgenics CPu, MPTP R transgenics PFC and MPTP R transgenice CPu mRNA.

Project description:Genome-wide association studies indicate allele variants in MIR137, the host gene of microRNA-137 (miR137), confer an increased risk of schizophrenia (SCZ). Expression of miR137 and its targets, many of which regulate synaptic functioning, are also associated with an increased risk of SCZ. As a result, miR137 represents an attractive target aimed at correcting the molecular basis for synaptic dysfunction in individuals with high genetic risk for SCZ. Advancements in nanotechnology utilize lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) to transport and deliver therapeutic RNA. However, there remains a gap in using LNPs to regulate gene and protein expression in the brain. To study the delivery of nucleic acids by LNPs to the brain, we found that LNPs released miR137 cargo and inhibited synaptic target transcripts in neuronal cultures. Biodistribution of LNPs loaded with firefly luciferase mRNA remained localized to the mouse prefrontal cortex (PFC) injection site without circulating to off-target organs. LNPs encapsulating Cre mRNA preferentially co-expressed in neuronal over microglial or astrocytic cells. Using quantitative proteomics, we found miR137 modulated glutamatergic synaptic protein networks that are commonly dysregulated in SCZ. These studies support engineering the next generation of brain-specific LNPs to deliver personalized RNA therapeutics and improve symptoms of central nervous system disorders.

Project description:This article presents a study that examines the proteomic alterations associated with opioid use disorder (OUD) in the human brain. The study investigates the interplay between pro-inflammatory signaling, extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling, and synaptic plasticity in the corticostriatal circuitry associated with OUD. The findings reveal differential alterations in the synaptic proteomes across the nucleus accumbens (NAc) and dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC), indicating that changes in certain synaptic subtypes are unique to each brain region. The proteomic alterations associated with OUD in DLPFC are mainly in glutamatergic, serotonergic, dopaminergic, and oxytocin signaling, while altered adrenergic signaling is enriched in NAc. The study also identifies alterations in proteins involved in circadian entrainment specifically in synaptic enrichments in both DLPFC and NAc of OUD subjects. These findings provide new evidence linking disrupted molecular rhythms in the regulation of distinct synaptic subtypes altered by opioids.

Project description:This study investigated the epigenetic mark of DNA methylation in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) as a function of age and cognition. Young and aged F344 rats were characterized in a cognitive flexibility task, set shifting, and whole-genome bisulfite sequencing was performed in an Illumina system. The results indicate that differential methylation was linked to the expression of genes within functional categories which may mediate impaired cognition in aging. Differences in aging included hypermethylation of genes linked to synaptic function and GTPase activity. Further, age-related cognitive flexibility impairment was correlated to hypermethylation of synaptic, postsynaptic density and ion channel activity genes.

Project description:We report the application of high-throughput RNA sequencing to the human prefrontal cortex. The brain dataset was obtained by sequencing total RNAs extracted from the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex of five deceased human patients with no apparent pathology, followed by depletion of ribosomal RNA to obtain all non-rRNA coding and non-coding RNAs in the human brain transcriptome. Five samples were sequenced, four coming from frozen brain tissue (frontal cortex) of deceased female human patients with no remarkable pathology, and one from a male patient with no remarkable pathology.

Project description:We investigated molecular changes during human, chimpanzee, and rhesus macaque postnatal brain development at the transcriptome, proteome, and metabolome levels in two brain regions: the prefrontal cortex (PFC) that is involved in several human-specific cognitive processes, and the cerebellar cortex (CBC) that may be functionally more conserved. We find a nearly three-fold excess of human-specific gene expression changes in PFC compared to CBC. The most prominent human-specific mRNA expression pattern in the PFC is a developmental delay of approximately 5 years in the expression of genes associated with learning and memory, such as synaptic transmission and long-term potentiation. This pattern is supported by correlated changes in concentrations of proteins and the respective neurotransmitters and its magnitude is beyond the shift expected from the life-histories of the species. Mechanistically, it might be driven by change in timing of expression of four or more transcription factors. We speculate that delayed synaptic maturation in PFC may play a role in the emergence of human-specific cognitive abilities. Keywords: Age series Human, chimpanzee and rhesus macaque post-mortem brain samples from the superior frontal gyrus region of the prefrontal cortex were collected. The age ranges of the individuals in all three species covered the respective species' postnatal maturation period from infancy to old adulthood. RNA extracted from the dissected tissue was hybridized to Affymetrix® Human Gene 1.0 ST arrays. PFC samples.
