Project description:Mouse line BTBR T+ Iptr3tf/J (hereafter referred as to BTBR/J) is a congenic mouse strain that shows lower sociability compared to the C57BL/6J mouse strain (hereafter referred to as B6) and thus is often utilized as a model for autism spectrum disorder (ASD). In this study, we utilized another subline, BTBRTF/ArtRbrc (RIKEN BioResource Research Center; RBRC, Tsukuba, Japan; RBRC ID: 01206, hereafter referred to as BTBR/R), and analyzed the associated brain transcriptome compared to B6 mice using microarray analysis. We focused on the cerebral cortex and the striatum, both of which are thought to be brain circuits associated with ASD symptoms. Our results identified the transcriptome profiling in BTBR/R mice compared to B6 mice, which could contribute to the understanding of ASD molecular pathology as well as the differences in sociality observed between BTBR/J mice and B6 mice.

In this study, we utilized another subline, BTBRTF/ArtRbrc (hereafter referred as to BTBR/R), and analyzed the associated brain transcriptome compared to B6 mice using microarray analysis, quantitative RT-PCR analysis, various bioinformatics analyses, and in situ hybridization. We focused on the cerebral cortex and the striatum, both of which are thought to be brain circuits associated with ASD symptoms. The transcriptome profiling identified 1,280 differentially expressed genes (DEGs; 974 downregulated and 306 upregulated genes, including 498 non-coding RNAs [ncRNAs]) in BTBR/R mice compared to B6 mice. Among these DEGs, 53 genes were consistent with ASD-related genes already established. Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment analysis highlighted 78 annotations (GO terms) including DNA/chromatin regulation, transcriptional/translational regulation, intercellular signaling, metabolism, immune signaling, and neurotransmitter/synaptic transmission-related terms. RNA interaction analysis revealed novel RNA-RNA networks, including 227 ASD-related genes. Weighted correlation network analysis highlighted 10 enriched modules including DNA/chromatin regulation, neurotransmitter/synaptic transmission, and transcriptional/translational regulation. Finally, the behavioral analyses showed that, compared to B6 mice, BTBR/R mice have mild but significant deficits in social novelty recognition and repetitive behavior. In addition, the BTBR/R data were comprehensively compared with those reported in the previous studies of human subjects with ASD as well as ASD animal models, including BTBR/J mice. Our results allow us to propose potentially important genes, ncRNAs, and RNA interactions. Analysis of the altered brain transcriptome data of the BTBR/R and BTBR/J sublines can contribute to the understanding of the genetic underpinnings of autism susceptibility.

Project description:Vascular cognitive impairment (VCI) is a major cause of dementia, characterized by cognitive dysfunction resulting from cerebrovascular disease. Chronic cerebral hypoperfusion (CCH) is a significant contributor to VCI, impacting regions such as the white matter and the hippocampus. Despite the known effects on these areas, the response of the striatum to CCH has been less explored. This study aims to elucidate the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying striatal dysfunction following CCH. Using a mouse model of bilateral common carotid artery stenosis (BCAS), we observed microglial activation in the striatum, suggesting an inflammatory response. We employed RNA-seq and ATAC-seq to integrate transcriptomic and epigenomic data, identifying changes in gene expression and chromatin accessibility associated with CCH. Our analysis revealed upregulation of immune-related pathways and downregulation of neuronal activity pathways, highlighting distinct regulatory mechanisms in response to hypoperfusion. The results provide insights into the pathogenesis of ischemic brain injury and suggest potential therapeutic targets for VCI.

Project description:C57BL/6J (B6) and DBA/2J (D2) are two of the most commonly used inbred mouse strains in neuroscience research. However, the only currently available mouse genome is based entirely on the B6 strain sequence. Subsequently, oligonucleotide microarray probes are based solely on this B6 reference sequence, making their application for gene expression profiling comparisons across mouse strains dubious due to their allelic sequence differences, including single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). The emergence of next-generation sequencing (NGS) and the RNA-Seq application provides a clear alternative to oligonucleotide arrays for detecting differential gene expression without the problems inherent to hybridization-based technologies. Using RNA-Seq, an average of 22 million short sequencing reads were generated per sample for 21 samples (10 B6 and 11 D2), and these reads were aligned to the mouse reference genome, allowing 16,183 Ensembl genes to be queried in striatum for both strains. To determine differential expression, 'digital mRNA counting' is applied based on reads that map to exons. The current study compares RNA-Seq (Illumina GA IIx) with two microarray platforms (Illumina MouseRef-8 v2.0 and Affymetrix MOE 430 2.0) to detect differential striatal gene expression between the B6 and D2 inbred mouse strains. We show that by using stringent data processing requirements differential expression as determined by RNA-Seq is concordant with both the Affymetrix and Illumina platforms in more instances than it is concordant with only a single platform, and that instances of discordance with respect to direction of fold change were rare. Finally, we show that additional information is gained from RNA-Seq compared to hybridization-based techniques as RNA-Seq detects more genes than either microarray platform. The majority of genes differentially expressed in RNA-Seq were only detected as present in RNA-Seq, which is important for studies with smaller effect sizes where the sensitivity of hybridization-based techniques could bias interpretation. There are 5 male and 5 female C57BL/6J animals and 5 male and 5 female DBA/2J. These are adult, naïve animals. One array is run for each animal for a total of 20 Mouse MOE430 2.0 arrays. The purpose is to determine baseline (naïve) gene expression differences in striatum for these two inbred strains. There are 12 male C57BL/6J animals and 12 male DBA/2J. These are adult, naïve animals. One array is run for each animal for a total of 24 Mouse Ref8 v2 arrays. The purpose is to determine baseline (naïve) gene expression differences in striatum for these two inbred strains. ***This submission represents the microarray component of the study

Project description:ntracranial electroencephalography (EEG) is commonly used to study epileptogenesis and epilepsy in experimental models. Chronic gliosis and neurodegeneration at the injury site are known to be associated with surgically implanted electrodes in both humans and experimental models. Currently, however, there are no reports on the impact of intracerebral electrodes on proteins in the hippocampus and proinflammatory cytokines in the cerebral cortex and plasma in experimental models. We used an unbiased, label-free proteomics approach to identify the altered proteins in the hippocampus, and multiplex assay for cytokines in the cerebral cortex and plasma of C57BL/6J mice following bilateral surgical implantation of electrodes into the cerebral hemispheres.
