Project description:Staufen2 (Stau2) is an RNA-binding protein that is involved in dendritic spine morphogenesis and function. Several studies have recently investigated the role of Stau2 in the regulation of its neuronal target mRNAs, with particular focus on the hippocampus. Here, we provide evidence for Stau2 expression and function in cerebellar Purkinje cells. We show that Stau2 downregulation (Stau2GT) lead to an increase of the glutamate receptor ionotropic delta subunit 2 (GluD2) in Purkinje cells when animals performed physical activity by voluntary wheel running. Furthermore, Stau2GT mice showed lower performance in motor coordination assays but enhanced motor learning abilities, concomitantly with an increase in dendritic GluD2 expression. Together, our results suggest a novel role of Stau2 in Purkinje cell synaptogenesis in the mouse cerebellum

Project description:The signalling protein PKCγ is a major regulator of Purkinje cell development and synaptic function. We have shown previously that increased PKCγ activity impairs dendritic development of cerebellar Purkinje cells. Mutations in the protein kinase Cγ gene (PRKCG) cause spinocerebellar ataxia type 14 (SCA14). In a transgenic mouse model of SCA14 expressing the human S361G mutation, Purkinje cell dendritic development is impaired in cerebellar slice cultures similar to pharmacological activation of PKC. The mechanisms of PKCγ-driven inhibition of dendritic growth are still unclear. Using immunoprecipitation-coupled mass spectrometry analysis we have identified Collapsin Response Mediator Protein 2 (CRMP2) as a protein interacting with constitutive active PKCγ(S361G) and confirmed the interaction with the Duolink™ proximity ligation assay. We show that in cerebellar slice cultures from PKCγ(S361G)- mice, phosphorylation of CRMP2 at the known PKC target site Thr555 is increased in Purkinje cells confirming phosphorylation of CRMP2 by PKCγ. miRNA-mediated CRMP2 knockdown decreased Purkinje cell dendritic outgrowth in dissociated cerebellar cultures as did the transfection of CRMP2 mutants with a modified Thr555 site. In contrast, dendritic development was normal after wildtype CRMP2 overexpression. In a novel knock-in mouse expressing only the phospho-defective T555A-mutant CRMP2, Purkinje cell dendritic development was reduced in dissociated cultures. This reduction could be rescued by transfecting wildtype CRMP2 but only partially by the phospho-mimetic T555D-mutant. Our findings establish CRMP2 as an important target of PKCγ phosphorylation in Purkinje cells mediating its control of dendritic development. Dynamic regulation of CRMP2 phosphorylation via PKCγ is required for its correct function.

Furthermore, Stau2GT mice showed lower performance in motor coordination assays but enhanced motor learning abilities than did WT mice, concomitantly with an increase in dendritic GluD2 expression.

Project description:Previous studies in bulk tissue suggest that there are abundant expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) in human brain. This sample series is of cerebellar Purkinje cells isolated using laser capture microdissection from human cases without neurological disease but of known genotypes. These data may be helpful in confirming eQTLs in bulk tissue or in mapping other gene expression traits in an enriched neuronal population. Authorized Access data: Mapping of GEO sample accessions to dbGaP subject/sample IDs is available through dbGaP Authorized Access, see http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/projects/gap/cgi-bin/study.cgi?study_id=phs000249 The aim of this study was to examine gene expression in isolated purkinje cells from the human cerebellum. We obtained frozen brain tissue from the cerebellum. We stained sections with cresyl violet and separated Purkinje cells based on morphology and location within the cerebellum using laser capture microdissection. Expression analyses were then performed.

Project description:We performed gene-expression analysis of mouse Purkinje cells as a model M-bM-^@M-^\single-type neuronM-bM-^@M-^]. DNA microarray analysis detected at least 7,055 genes in Purkinje cells, most of which are classified into functional molecule categories. Our comparative analysis between Purkinje cells and the granule cell layer showed that the characteristic expression pattern in Purkinje cells was particularly represented by M-bM-^@M-^\the neural communication systemM-bM-^@M-^] components. Pukinje cells and granule cell layer of the mouse cerebellum were collected by laser microdissection for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.

Project description:Research on human cerebellar development and disease has been hampered by the need for a human cell-based system that recapitulates the human cerebellum's cellular diversity and functional features. Here, we report a human organoid model (hCerOs) capable of developing the complex cellular diversity of the fetal cerebellum, including human-specific rhombic lip progenitor populations that have never been generated in vitro prior to this study. Two months old hCerOs form distinct cytoarchitectural features, including laminar organized layering and create functional connections between inhibitory and excitatory neurons that display coordinated network activity. Long-term culture of hCerOs allows for healthy survival and maturation of Purkinje cells that display molecular and electrophysiological hallmarks of their in vivo counterparts, addressing a long-standing challenge in the field. This study therefore provides a physiologically relevant, all-human model system to elucidate the cell type specific mechanisms governing cerebellar development and disease.

Project description:We performed gene-expression analysis of mouse Purkinje cells as a model “single-type neuron”. DNA microarray analysis detected at least 7,055 genes in Purkinje cells, most of which are classified into functional molecule categories. Our comparative analysis between Purkinje cells and the granule cell layer showed that the characteristic expression pattern in Purkinje cells was particularly represented by “the neural communication system” components.

Project description:We analyzed Purkinje cell transcriptome dynamics in the developing mouse cerebellum during the first three postnatal weeks, a key developmental period equivalent to the third trimester in human cerebellar development. Our study represents the first detailed analysis of developmental Purkinje cell transcriptomes and provides a valuable dataset for gene network analyses and biological questions on genes implicated in cerebellar and Purkinje cell development.
