Project description:Cognitive dysfunction has been accepted as a possible complication of type 2 diabetes (T2D), but few studies revealed the potential roles of Long non‑coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in cognitive dysfunction in T2D. The purpose of the current research is to demonstrate the specific expression patterns of lncRNA-mRNA in the hippocampi of T2D db/db mice exhibiting cognitive impairment. In this study, the results from behavioral tests showed that T2D db/db mice displayed short-term and spatial working memory deficits compared to db/m mice. Furthermore, western blot analysis demonstrated that compared with db/m mice, p-GSK3β (ser9) protein levels were markedly elevated in T2D db/db mice (P<0.01). In addition, though not statistically significant, the ratio of p-Tau (Ser396) to Tau 46, α-Synuclein expression and p-GSK3α (ser21) expression were also relatively higher in T2D db/db mice than in db/m mice. The microarray profiling revealed that 75 lncRNAs and 26 mRNAs were obviously dysregulated in T2D db/db mice (>2.0 fold change, P<0.05). GO analysis demonstrated that the differentially expressed mRNAs participated in immune response, extracellular membrane-bounded organelle and extracellular region. KEGG analysis revealed that the differentially expressed mRNAs were mainly involved in one carbon pool by folate, glyoxylate and dicarboxylate metabolism, autophagy, glycine, serine and threonine metabolism and B cell receptor signaling pathway. An lncRNA‑mRNA coexpression network containing 71 lncRNAs and 26 mRNAs was built to investigate the interaction between lncRNA and mRNA. Collectively, these results revealed the differential hippocampal expression profiles of lncRNAs in T2D mice with cognitive dysfunction, and the findings from this study provide new clues for exploring the potential roles of lncRNAs in the pathogenesis of cognitive dysfunction in T2D.

Project description:Although immediate early genes (IEGs) such as Bdnf, Arc and Egr1, have been implicated in plasticity, the larger pathways related to memory and memory disorders are not well understood. Here, we combined statistical Affymetrix microarray and behavioral analyses to identify key genes and pathways associated with aging-related cognitive impairment. Aged rats were separated into cognitively unimpaired (AU) or impaired (AI) groups, based on their Morris water maze performance relative to young-adult (Y) animals. Hippocampal gene expression was assessed in Y, AU and AI on the fifth (last) day of maze training or 21 days posttraining, and in non-trained aged and young animals (eight groups, overall n = 78, one chip/animal). ANOVA, linear contrasts, and overrepresentation analyses identified genes and pathways that differed from Y generally with aging (in both AU and AI) or selectively with cognitive status (only in AI or AU). Plasticity pathways, including insulin/cAMP/IEG signaling, and glycogenolytic and lipogenic pathways, were selectively downregulated (5 days) in AI, whereas Notch2 (regulating oligodendrocyte differentiation) and myelination pathways were upregulated (particularly at 21 days). Downregulation with general aging occurred in signal transduction and axonal growth/transport pathways, whereas upegulation occurred in immune/inflammatory, lipid metabolism/transport (e.g., Lxr-Srebf1), and lysosomal pathways. In AU, receptor/signal transduction genes were selectively upregulated, suggesting possible compensatory mechanisms. Immunohistochemistry confirmed and extended results to the protein level. Thus, this study identified novel cognition-linked processes, suggesting a new model in which energy-intensive, plasticity/lipogenic processes and energy-generating pathways necessary for learning are coordinately downregulated during training, while myelinogenic programs that impair cognition are concurrently activated.

Project description:This study investigates the roles of neurons, microglia, astrocytes, and oligodendrocytes in the pathogenesis of postoperative cognitive impairment, focusing on a dysregulated glia-neuron cycle. We utilized 18-month male C57BL/6 mice to model this condition, conducting single-cell RNA sequencing in the hippocampus to explore the neuroglial interactions and their implications in neuroinflammation, synaptic dysfunction, and myelin loss. This dataset includes transcriptomic profiles aimed at decoding the cellular communication in aged hippocampal cells and assessing the impact of therapeutic interventions on postoperative cognitive decline.

Project description:To investigate whether taste receptor type 1 member 3 (TAS1R3) might serve as a key modulator of cognitive impairment led by WD-induced obesity, male Tas1r3-wild type (WT) and knockout (KO) mice were randomized to receive either a normal diet (ND) or western diet (WD) for 18 weeks. We performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RNA-seq of hippocampus of two WT mice fed a WD (WT-WD) and two KO-WD mice.

Project description:It is important to maintain cognitive integrity during underwater operations, which may also trigger cognitive alterations. Cognitive effect of underwater operations and the underlying mechanism remain elusive. Here, we found a single underwater operation affects cognition in a time-dependent model. Prolonged exposure elicits significant cognitive impairment and hippocampal dysfunction, which was accompanied by activation of microglia and upregulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines. RNA-sequencing supported the involvement of neuroinflammation and indicated the critical role of CCR3. Knockdown of CCR3 significantly rescued cognitive impairment and hippocampal dysfunction. Furthermore, the upregulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines was also reversed. Mechanistically, CCR3 knockdown switched the activated microglia from a pro-inflammatory to neuroprotective phenotype. Taken together, these results highlighted the time-dependent effects of a single underwater operation on cognitive function. Knocking down CCR3 can attenuate neuroinflammation by regulating polarization of activated microglia, thereby alleviating prolonged underwater operation-induced cognitive impairment.

Project description:The presence of an extra whole or part of chromosome 21 in people with Down syndrome (DS) is associated with multiple neurological changes, including pathological aging that often meets the criteria for Alzheimer’s Disease (AD). While the mechanism underlying these changes is unknown, it has been hypothesized that the presence of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) on chromosome 21 may contribute to the phenotype. Genome-wide DNA methylation abnormalities have been shown in neural tissue of patients with AD, and cells may respond to changes in gene dosage with altered DNA methylation. We therefore examined whole-genome DNA methylation in buccal epithelial cells of adults with DS to determine whether patterns of DNA methylation correlated with DS and/or cognitive impairment. In addition we examined DNA methylation at the APP gene itself, to see whether there were changes in DNA methylation in this population. Using the Illumina 450K Human Methylation Array, we examined more than 485,000 CpG sites distributed across the genome in buccal epithelial cells. We found 297 CpGs to be differentially methylated between the groups, including 26 genes that were represented by more than one CpG. In addition, we found 331 probes that were correlated with cognitive function including 23 genes represented by more than one probe. We found no enrichment on chromosome 21 and targeted analysis of the APP gene revealed weak evidence for epigenetic impacts related to the AD phenotype. Overall, our results indicate that both Trisomy 21 and cognitive impairment are associated with distinct patterns of DNA methylation. This cohort consist of genomic DNA extracted from 20 buccal swabs, bisulphite converted and hybridized to the Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation450 Beadchip for genome wide DNA methylation profiling.

Project description:Recent microarray studies in the hippocampus of rodents or Alzheimer’s disease (AD) subjects have identified a substantial number of cellular pathways/processes correlated with aging and cognitive decline. However, the temporal relationships among these expression changes or with cognitive impairment have not been studied in depth. Here, using Affymetrix microarrays, immunohistochemistry and Morris water maze cognitive testing across 5 age groups of male F344 rats (n=9-15/group, one microarray per animal), we systematically analyzed the temporal sequence and cellular localization of aging changes in expression. These were correlated with performance scores on the hippocampus-dependent Morris Water Maze task. Significant microarray results were sorted in to Early, Intermediate, Midlife, and Late patterns of expression, and functionally categorized (Early- downregulated neural development, lipid synthesis and energy-utilization; upregulated ribosomal synthesis, growth, stress/inflammatory, lysosome and protein/lipid degradation. Intermediate- increased defense/inflammatory activation and decreased transporter activity; Midlife- downregulated energy-dependent signaling and neurite growth, upregulated astroglial activation, Ca2+-binding, cholesterol/lipid trafficking, myelinogenic processes and additional lysosome/inflammation; Late- further recruitment of genes in already-altered pathways). Immunohistochemistry revealed a primarily astrocytic localization of the processes upregulated in midlife, as well as increased density of myelin proteins. Evidence of cognitive impairment first appeared in the 12-month-old group (midlife) and was increased further in the 23-month-old group, exhibiting the highest correlations with some upregulated genes related to cholesterol transport (e.g., Apoe, Abca2), protein management and ion binding. Some upregulated genes for inflammation (Il6st) and myelinogenesis (Pmp22) also correlated with impairment. Together, the data are consistent with a novel sequential cascade model of brain aging in which metabolic alterations early in maturity are followed by inflammation and midlife activation of an astrocyte-centered cholesterol trafficking pathway that stimulates oligodendrocyte remyelination programs. Importantly, this cholesterol trafficking pathway also may compete for astroglial bioenergetic support of neurons, in turn, leading to downregulation of energy-dependent pathways needed to sustain cognitive functions.
