Project description:Morphine is used to sedate critically ill infants to treat painful or stressful conditions associated with intensive care. Whether neonatal morphine exposure affects microRNA (miR) expression and thereby alters mRNA regulation is unknown. We tested the hypothesis that repeated morphine treatment in stress-exposed neonatal mice alters hippocampal mRNA and miR gene expression. C57BL/6 male mice were treated from postnatal day (P) 5 to P9 with morphine at 2 or 5 mg/kg ip bid (MS5) and then exposed to stress consisting of hypoxia (100% N2 1 min and 100% O2 5 min) followed by 2h maternal separation. Control mice were untreated and dam-reared. mRNA and microRNA expression profiling was performed on hippocampal tissues at P9. Overall, MS2 and MS5 morphine treatment altered expression of a total of 150 mRNAs (>1.5 fold change, P<0.05; 36 up, 114 down), and MS5 affected 63 mRNAs. The most upregulated mRNAs were fidgetin, arginine vasopressin, and resistin-like alpha, and the most down-regulated were defensin beta 11, aquaporin 1, calmodulin-like 4, chloride intracellular channel 6, and claudin 2. Gene Set Enrichment Analysis revealed that morphine treatment affected pathways related to cell cycle, membrane function, signaling, metabolism, cell death, transcriptional regulation, and immune response. MS5 decreased expression of miR-204-5p, miR-455-3p, miR-448-3p, and miR-574-3p.Nine morphine-responsive mRNAs that are involved in neurodevelopment, neurotransmission, and inflammation are predicted targets of the aforementioned differentially expressed microRNAs These data establish that morphine produces dose-dependent changes in both hippocampal mRNA and miR gene expression in stressed neonatal mice. If permanent, morphine–mediated neuroepigenetic effects may affect long-term hippocampal function, and this provides a mechanism for the neonatal morphine-related impairment of adult learning.

Project description:To study the relationship between microRNAs and μ-opioid receptor (MOR) signaling, we examined microRNA expression after chronic morphine or fentanyl treatment in rat primary hippocampal neurons and in mouse hippocampus. Mouse cerebellum region was also tested as a negative control to eliminate microRNA expression changes unrelated to MOR signaling, as the cerebellum is essentially devoid of MOR. We identified a number of microRNAs that altered their expression upon treatment with both morphine and fentanyl in the rat and mouse systems. There were, however, some microRNAs that changed in response to morphine, or fentanyl, but not both. Keywords: Expression profiling

Keywords: Expression profiling There are up to three biological replicates (indicated by 1, 2, and 3) of primary hippocampal neurons from new born rats and the cerebellum and hippocampus regions from adult mice treated for three days (control, morphine, and fentanyl). The biological replicates were from experiments performed on different dates. Each biological replicate contained cells or tissues collected from multiple animals so that enough RNA could be extracted for RNA analysis. RNA was labelled with a green dye, mixed with a reference DNA sample labelled with a red dye. The reference DNA contained a number of synthetic DNA oligos with mature microRNA sequences that served to verify microarray hybridization. RNA signals were in ch1, DNA signals ch2.

Project description:Critically ill preterm infants experience multiple stressors while hospitalized. Morphine is commonly prescribed to ameliorate their pain and stress. We hypothesized that neonatal stress will have a dose-dependent effect on hippocampal gene expression, and these effects will be altered by morphine treatment. Male C57BL/6 mice were exposed to 5 treatment conditions between postnatal day 5 and 9: 1) Control, 2) mild stress + saline, 3) mild stress + morphine, 4) severe stress + saline and 5) severe stress + morphine. Hippocampal RNA was extracted and analyzed using Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Arrays. Single gene analysis and gene set analysis were used to compare groups with validation by qPCR. Stress resulted in enrichment of genes sets related to fear response, oxygen carrying capacity and NMDA receptor synthesis. Morphine downregulated gene sets related to immune function. Stress plus morphine resulted in enrichment of mitochondrial electron transport gene sets, and down-regulation of gene sets related to brain development and growth. We conclude that neonatal stress alone influences hippocampal gene expression, morphine alters a subset of stress-related changes in gene expression and influences other gene sets. Stress plus morphine show interaction effects not present with either stimulus alone. These changes may alter neurodevelopment. Male mice were exposed to 5 treatment conditions between postnatal day (P)5 and P9 (n=3/group), with birth recorded as P1. Litters were culled to n=7 maximum per dam. Groups included: 1) Untreated controls (CC), 2) mild stress + saline (MSS), 3) mild stress + morphine (MSM), 4) severe stress + saline (SSS) and 5) severe stress + morphine (SSM).

Project description:Prenatal opioid exposure is a major health concern in the United States, with the incidence of neonatal opioid withdrawal syndrome (NOWS) escalating in recent years. NOWS is revealed upon cessation of in utero opioid exposure and is characterized by increased irritability, disrupted sleep patterns, high-pitched crying, and erratic feeding. The main pharmacological treatment strategy for alleviating symptoms is opioid maintenance therapy. The neural mechanisms mediating NOWS and the long-term neurobehavioral effects are poorly understood. We used a third trimester-approximate model in which neonatal outbred pups (Cartworth Farms White; CFW) were administered once-daily morphine (15 mg/kg, s.c.) from postnatal day (P) day 1 through P14 and were then assessed for behavioral and transcriptomic adaptations within the nucleus accumbens (NAc) on P15. We also investigated the long-term effects of perinatal morphine exposure on adult learning and reward sensitivity. We observed significant weight deficits, spontaneous thermal hyperalgesia, and altered ultrasonic vocalization (USV) profiles following repeated morphine and during spontaneous withdrawal. Transcriptome analysis of NAc from opioid-withdrawn P15 neonates via bulk mRNA sequencing identified an enrichment profile consistent with downregulation of myelin-associated transcripts. Despite the neonatal behavioral and molecular effects, there were no significant long-term effects of perinatal morphine exposure on adult spatial memory function in the Barnes Maze, emotional learning in fear conditioning, or in baseline or methamphetamine-potentiated reward sensitivity as measured via intracranial self-stimulation. Thus, the once daily third trimester-approximate exposure regimen, while inducing NOWS model traits and significant transcriptomic effects in neonates, had no significant long-term effects on adult behaviors.

Project description:Background Maternal consumption of alcohol during pregnancy is associated with a range of physical, cognitive and behavioural outcomes in the offspring which are collectively called fetal alcohol spectrum disorders. We and others have proposed that epigenetic modifications, such as DNA methylation and post-translational histone modifications, mediate the effects of prenatal alcohol exposure on gene expression and, ultimately, phenotype. Here we use an inbred C57BL/6J mouse model of early gestational ethanol exposure equivalent, developmentally, to the first 3-4 weeks of pregnancy in humans to examine the long-term effects on gene expression and epigenetic state in the hippocampus. Results Gene expression analysis in the hippocampus revealed sex- and age-specific up-regulation of solute carrier family 17 member 6 (Slc17a6), which encodes vesicular glutamate transporter 2 (VGLUT2). Transcriptional up-regulation correlated with decreased DNA methylation and enrichment of histone H3 lysine 4 trimethylation, an active chromatin mark, at the Slc17a6 promoter. In contrast to Slc17a6 mRNA levels, hippocampal VGLUT2 protein levels were significantly decreased in adult ethanol-exposed offspring, suggesting an additional level of post-transcriptional control. MicroRNA expression profiling in the hippocampus identified four ethanol-sensitive microRNAs, of which miR-467b-5p was predicted to target Slc17a6. In vitro reporter assays showed that miR-467b-5p specifically interacted with the 3’ UTR of Slc17a6, suggesting that it contributes to the reduction of hippocampal VGLUT2 in vivo. A significant correlation between microRNA expression in the hippocampus and serum of ethanol-exposed offspring was also observed. Conclusions Prenatal ethanol exposure has complex transcriptional and post-transcriptional effects on Slc17a6 (VGLUT2) expression in the mouse hippocampus. These effects are observed following a relatively moderate exposure that is restricted to early pregnancy, modelling human consumption of alcohol before pregnancy is confirmed, and are only apparent in male offspring in adulthood. We propose that altered epigenetic and microRNA-mediated regulation of glutamate neurotransmission in the hippocampus contributes to the cognitive and behavioural phenotypes observed in fetal alcohol spectrum disorders. Our findings also support the idea that circulating microRNAs could be used as biomarkers of early gestational ethanol exposure and/or hippocampal dysfunction.
