Chronic constriction injury in cholecystokinin b receptor (Cckbr)-deficient mice

ABSTRACT: The cholecystokinin B (2) receptor knockout (Cckbr KO) protects against allodynia induced by chronic constriction injury (CCI). The mechanism of this phenomenon is unknown, but must involve persistent changes in pain modulation and/or inflammatory pathways. We performed a gene expression study in two brain areas (midbrain and medulla) after surgical induction of CCI in Cckbr KO and wild-type (wt) control mice. The patterns of gene expression differences suggest that the immune system is activated in higher brain structures following CCI in the wt mice. The strongest differences include genes related to the MAPK pathway activation and cytokine production. In Cckbr KO mice this expressional pattern was absent. In addition, we found significant elevation of the Toll-like receptor 4 (Tlr4) in the supraspinal structures of the mice with deleted Cckbr compared to wt control mice. This up-regulation is most likely induced by the deletion of Cckbr. We suggest that there is a functional deficiency in the Tlr4 pathway which disables the development of neuropathic pain in Cckbr KO mice. Indeed, real time PCR analysis detected a CCI-induced upregulation of Tlr4 and Il1b expression in the lumbar region of wt but not Cckbr KO mice. Gene expression profiling indicates that elements of the immune response are not activated in Cckbr KO mice following CCI. Our findings suggest that there may be a role for CCK in the regulation of innate immunity. Keywords: genetic modification, neuropathic model, chronic constriction injury

Comprehensive Analysis of Transcriptome in Dorsal Root Ganglia Following Chronic Constriction Injury.

Project description:To investigate mechanisms underlying neuropathic pain, we established sciatic nerve chronic constriction injury (CCI) neuropathic pain model in rats, and performed RNA-seq on ipsilateral bulk L4-L6 dorsal root ganglia from CCI rats and sham rats 11 days after surgery. By comprehensive analysis, we identified several key mRNAs and miRNAs, especially those associated with inflammatory immune response, may serve as promising targets, facilitating further investigation and eventually developing better therapeutic strategies for NP.

scRNA-sequencing reveals subtype-specific transcriptomic perturbations in DRG neurons of PirtEGFPf mice in neuropathic pain condition

Project description:Functionally distinct subtypes/clusters of dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons may play different roles in nerve regeneration and pain. However, details about their transcriptomic changes under neuropathic pain conditions remain unclear. Chronic constriction injury (CCI) of the sciatic nerve represents a well-established model of neuropathic pain, and we conducted single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) to characterize subtype-specific perturbations of transcriptomes in lumbar DRG neurons on day 7 post-CCI. By using PirtEGFPf mice that selectively express an enhanced green fluorescent protein in DRG neurons, we established a highly efficient purification process to enrich neurons for scRNA-seq. We observed the emergence of four prominent CCI-induced clusters and a loss of marker genes in injured neurons. Importantly, a portion of injured neurons from several clusters were spared from injury-induced identity loss, suggesting subtype-specific transcriptomic changes in injured neurons. Moreover, uninjured neurons, which are necessary for mediating the evoked pain, also demonstrated cell-type-specific transcriptomic perturbations in these clusters, but not in others. Notably, male and female mice showed differential transcriptomic changes in multiple neuronal clusters after CCI, suggesting transcriptomic sexual dimorphism in DRG neurons after nerve injury. Using Fgf3 as a proof-of-principle, RNAscope study provided further evidence of increased Fgf3 in injured neurons after CCI, supporting scRNA-seq analysis, and calcium imaging study unraveled a functional role of Fgf3 in neuronal excitability. These findings may contribute to the identification of new target genes and the development of DRG neuron cell-type-specific therapies for optimizing neuropathic pain treatment and nerve regeneration.

A Transcriptomic Analysis of Neuropathic Pain in the Anterior Cingulate Cortex after Nerve Injury

Project description:Neuropathic pain is a troublesome pathological condition without suitable treatments. In this study, we performed RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) analysis to reveal transcriptomic profiles of Anterior Cingulate Cortex (ACC) from chronic constriction injury (CCI) rats. We found 1628 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were mainly involved in the inflammatory and immune process. Besides, cytokine signaling and other cell-defense related pathways mainly contribute to the occurrence and development of neuropathic pain. Then we classified the DEGs based on the time trend. Our results suggested that chemokines played a vital role in pain, and moreover, CCL5, CXCL9 and CXCL13, compared with CCL2, CCL3, CCL4, CCL6 and CCL7 had different time-dependent manners. In a word, targeting chemokines is of great significance to explore specific mechanisms and develop suitable drugs for neuropathic pain.

Sex-specific transcriptome of spinal microglia in neuropathic pain due to peripheral nerve injury

Project description:Neuropathic pain is a prevalent and debilitating chronic disease that is characterized by activation in glial cells in various pain-related regions within the central nervous system. Recent studies have suggested a sexually dimorphic role of microglia in the maintenance of neuropathic pain in rodents. Here, we utilized RNA sequencing analysis of microglia to identify whether there is a common neuropathic microglial signature and characterize the sex differences in microglia in pain-related regions in nerve injury and chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy mouse models. Whilst mechanical allodynia and behavioral changes were observed in all models, transcriptomic analysis of microglia revealed no common transcriptional changes in spinal and supraspinal regions and in different neuropathic models. However, there was a substantial change in microglial gene expression within the ipsilateral lumbar spinal cord 7-days after chronic constriction injury (CCI) of the sciatic nerve. Both sexes upregulated genes associated with inflammation, phagosome, and lysosome activation, though males revealed a prominent global transcriptional shift not observed in female mice. This study demonstrates a lack of a common neuropathic microglial signature and indicates distinct sex differences in spinal microglia, suggesting they contribute to the sex-specific pain processing following nerve injury.

Spinal astrocytic MeCP2 regulates Kir4.1 for the maintenance of chronic hyperalgesia in neuropathic pain

Project description:Previous studies have suggested that astrocyte activation in the spinal dorsal horn may play an important role in the development of chronic neuropathic pain; but the mechanisms involved in astrocyte activation and their modulatory effects remain unknown. The inward rectifying potassium channel protein 4.1 (Kir4.1) is the most important background K+ channel in astrocytes. However, how Kir4.1 is regulated and contributes to behavioral hyperalgesia in chronic pain is unknown. In this study, single-cell RNA sequencing analysis indicated that the expression of Kir4.1 and Methyl-CpG-binding protein 2 (MeCP2) were both decreased in spinal astrocytes after chronic constriction injury (CCI) in a mouse model. Conditional knockout of the Kir4.1 channel in spinal astrocytes led to hyperalgesia; and overexpression of the Kir4.1 channel in spinal cord relieved CCI-induced hyperalgesia. Expression of spinal Kir4.1 after CCI was regulated by MeCP2. Electrophysiological recording in spinal slices showed that knockdown of Kir4.1 significantly regulated the excitability of astrocytes and then functionally changed the firing patterns of neurons in dorsal spinal cord. Therefore, targeting spinal Kir4.1 maybe an underlying treatment for hyperalgesia in chronic neuropathic pain.

Normalization of cholesterol metabolism in spinal microglia alleviates neuropathic pain

Project description:Neuroinflammation is a major component in the transition to and perpetuation of neuropathic pain states. Spinal neuroinflammation involves activation of TLR4, localized to enlarged, cholesterol-enriched lipid rafts, designated here as inflammarafts. Conditional deletion of cholesterol transporters ABCA1 and ABCG1 in microglia, leading to inflammaraft formation, induced tactile allodynia in naïve mice. The apoA-I binding protein (AIBP) facilitated cholesterol depletion from inflammarafts and reversed neuropathic pain in a model of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) in wild-type mice, but AIBP failed to reverse allodynia in mice with ABCA1/ABCG1-deficient microglia, suggesting a cholesterol-dependent mechanism. An AIBP mutant lacking the TLR4-binding domain did not bind microglia nor reversed CIPN allodynia. The long-lasting therapeutic effect of a single AIBP dose in CIPN was associated with anti-inflammatory and cholesterol metabolism reprogramming and reduced accumulation of lipid droplets in microglia. These results suggest a cholesterol-driven mechanism of regulation of neuropathic pain by controlling TLR4 inflammarafts and gene expression program in microglia and blocking the perpetuation of neuroinflammation.

Lumbar spinal cords: Sham rats vs. chronic constriction injury (CCI) induced chronic neuropathic pain rats

Project description:To investigate the role of DNA methylation in modulating chronic neuropathic pain (NPP), and identify possible target genes of DNA methylation involved in this process. The chronic constriction injury (CCI) induced NPP model was used. The Arraystar Rat RefSeq Promoter Arrays were used to identify the methylation profiles at the genome-wide level in the DNA promoter regions of the lumbar spinal cord in rats 14 Days following CCI surgery. The underlying genes with differential methylation were then identified and submitted to Gene Ontology and pathway analysis. Methyl-DNA immunoprecipitation quantitative PCR (MeDIP-qPCR) and quantitative reverse transcription-PCR (RT‒qPCR) were used to confirm gene methylation and expression.
