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 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.

Project description:Prenatal exposure to infectious or inflammatory insults can increase the risk of neuropsychiatric disorders with neurodevelopmental components, including schizophrenia and autism. The molecular processes underlying this pathological association are only partially understood. Here, we implemented an unbiased genome-wide transcriptional profiling of the prefrontal cortex of mice exposed to prenatal infection on GD17 compared to control subjects in order to elucidate the long term molecular signature of late prenatal infection. We used microarray analysis to investigate the long lasting gene expression changes in a well-established mouse model that is based on maternal treatment with the viral mimic poly(I:C) during pregnancy C57BL/6 mice were treated with the synthetic viral mimetic poly(I:C) (5 mg/kg, i.v.) or control (saline, i.v.) solution on gestation day 17. Offspring were subjected to cognitive and behavioral testing in adulthood, and then whole genome gene expression analysis with Affymetrix Microarray and subsequent q-PCR validation were performed on the prefrontal Cortex.

Project description:Animal models provide opportunity to study neurobiological aspects of human alcoholism. Changes in gene expression have been implicated in mediating brain function, including reward system and addiction. The current study aimed to identify novel genes that may underlie ethanol preference. Microarray analysis comparing gene expression in nucleus accumbens (NAc), hippocampus (HP) and prefrontal medial cortex (mPFC) was performed in two rat strains selected for extreme levels of ethanol preference - Warsaw High Preferring (WHP) and Warsaw Low Preferring (WLP). The identified candidate genes may underlie differential ethanol preference in rat model of alcoholism. This is analysis of 18 RNA samples, including 9 technical replicates. Two strains of rats selected for extreme levels of ethanol preference (low preferring WLP and high preferring WHP) were compared. Three brain areas (nucleus accumbens, prefrontal medial cortex and hippocampus) were studied. For each brain area, 6 RNA samples (including 3 technical replicates) were analyzed. Each RNA sample consist of of equal amounts of total RNA from 3 male rats. Comparisons: Nucleus accumbens of WHP vs. Nucleus accumbens of WLP; Prefrontal medial cortex of WHP vs. Prefrontal medial cortex of WLP; Hippocampus of WHP vs. Hippocampus of WLP. 3 biological replicates in each comparison.

Project description:Early-life stress has been linked to multiple neurodevelopmental and neuropsychiatric deficits. Our previous studies have linked maternal presence/absence from the nest in developing rat pups to changes in prefrontal cortex activity. Furthermore, we have shown that these changes are modulated by serotonergic signaling. Here we test whether changes in prefrontal cortex activity during early-life affect the developing cortex leading to behavioral alterations in the adult. We show that inhibiting the prefrontal cortex of mouse pups leads to cognitive deficits in the adult comparable to those seen following maternal separation. Moreover, we show that activating the prefrontal cortex during maternal separation can prevent these behavioral deficits. To test how maternal separation affects the transcriptional profile of the prefrontal cortex we performed single-nucleus RNA sequencing. Maternal separation lead to differential gene expression almost exclusively in inhibitory neurons. Among others, we found changes in GABAergic and serotonergic pathways in these interneurons. Interestingly, both maternal separation and early-life prefrontal cortex inhibition led to changes in physiological responses in prefrontal activity to GABAergic and serotonergic antagonists that were similar to the responses of more immature brains. Prefrontal activation during maternal separation prevented these changes. These data point to a crucial role of prefrontal cortex activity during early-life in behavioral expression in adulthood

Project description:Chronic social isolation (CSIS) is a risk factor for human major depressive disorder (MDD). Fluoxetine (Flx) is an antidepressant commonly used for first-line MDD therapy. However, its downstream mechanisms of action, beyond serotonergic signaling, remain elusive. We aimed to analyze the effects of CSIS followed by chronic Flx treatment on proteome changes in the adult male rat prefrontal cortex (PFC) cytosolic and non-synaptic mitochondria (NSM)-enriched fractions. Treatment with Flx ameliorated depression-like behaviors in CSIS-induced rat model of depression as assessed by sucrose preference test and forced swim test. Proteomic data showed that Flx increased the expression of proteins involved in cytoskeleton and regulation of intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis in the cytosol and of enzymes linking the glycolytic pathway to the citric acid cycle (Dlat) and ATPase-coupled ion transmembrane transport in NSM. CSIS resulted in down-regulation of cytosolic proteins involved in proteasome/ubiquitination processes and glutathione antioxidative system and up-regulated expression of key enzymes participating in oxidative phosphorylation. Presence of cytochrome c in the cytosol indicated compromised mitochondrial membrane integrity. Flx treatment in CSIS rats showed predominately an upregulation of vesicle-mediated transport proteins and reduced Uqcrfs1 along with transport in NSM, favoring reduced energy metabolism. Our data suggest that proteins from both cytosol and NSM-enriched fractions are affected by Flx in a key brain region associated with stress response, cognitive process and regulation of emotion.
