Project description:The stable formation of remote fear memories is thought to require neuronal gene induction in cortical ensembles that are activated during learning. However, the set of genes expressed specifically in these activated ensembles is not known; knowledge of such transcriptional profiles may offer insights into the molecular program underlying stable memory formation. Here we use RNA-Seq to identify genes whose expression is enriched in activated cortical ensembles labeled during associative fear learning. We first establish that mouse temporal association cortex (TeA) is required for remote recall of auditory fear memories. We then perform RNA-Seq in TeA neurons that are labeled by the activity reporter Arc-dVenus during learning. We identify 944 genes with enriched expression in Arc-dVenus+ neurons. These genes include markers of L2/3, L5b, and L6 excitatory neurons but not glial or inhibitory markers, confirming Arc-dVenus to be an excitatory neuron-specific, layer non-specific activity reporter. Cross comparisons to other transcriptional profiles show that 125 of the enriched genes are also activity-regulated in vitro or induced by visual stimulus in the visual cortex, suggesting that they may be induced generally in the cortex in an experience-dependent fashion. Prominent among the enriched genes are those encoding potassium channels that down-regulate neuronal activity, suggesting the possibility that part of the molecular program induced by fear conditioning may initiate homeostatic plasticity.

Project description:Sensory inputs activate sparse ensembles of neurons in the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus, but how eligibility of individual neurons to recruitment is determined remains elusive. We identified thousands of largely bistable (CpG methylated or unmethylated) regions within neuronal gene bodies, established during mouse dentate gyrus development. Reducing DNA methylation and the proportion of the methylated epialleles at bistable regions compromised novel context-induced neuronal activation. Conversely, increasing methylation and the frequency of the methylated epialleles at bistable regions enhanced intrinsic excitability. Single-nuclei profiling revealed enrichment of specific epialleles from a subset of bistable regions in activated neurons. Genes displaying both differential methylation and expression in activated neurons defined a network of proteins regulating neuronal excitability and structural plasticity. We propose a model in which bistable regions create neuron heterogeneity, and constellations of exonic epialleles dictate, via modulating gene expression and neuronal excitability, eligibility to a coding ensemble

Project description:Circuit neuroscience has made great progress by linking neuronal function to marker gene expression, allowing the specific investigation of otherwise indistinguishable neuronal ensembles. Here, we performed next generation sequencing on two functionally and genetically distinct interneuronal populations marked by the expression of protein kinase C δ (PKCδ) or somatostatin (SST) in the central amygdala (CEA) of mice, which are known to play distinct and sometimes opposing roles in emotion processing. Making their gene expression profile known will aid in forming hypotheses of how different neurotransmitters or psychoactive drugs could alter information processing in these neurons.

Project description:The physical manifestations of memory formation and recall are fundamental questions that remain unresolved. At the cellular level, ensembles of neurons called engrams are activated by learning events and control memory recall. Astrocytes are in close proximity to neurons and engage in a range of activities that support neurotransmission and circuit plasticity. Moreover, astrocytes exhibit experience dependent plasticity; however whether specific ensembles of astrocytes participate in memory recall remains obscure. Here we show that learning events induce c-Fos expression in a subset of hippocampal astrocytes, which subsequently regulates hippocampal circuit function. Intersectional, c-Fos based labeling of these astrocyte ensembles after learning events reveals that they are closely affiliated with engram neurons, while re-activation of these astrocyte ensembles stimulates memory recall. At the molecular level, these astrocyte ensembles exhibit elevated expression of NFIA and its selective deletion from this population suppresses memory recall. Together, our studies identify learning-associated astrocyte ensembles as a new form of plasticity that is sufficient to provoke memory recall, while implicating astrocytes as a reservoir for the storage of memories.

Project description:Maladaptive reward seeking is a hallmark of cocaine use disorder. To develop therapeutic targets, it is critical to understand the neurobiological changes specific to cocaine-seeking without altering the seeking of natural rewards, e.g., sucrose. The prefrontal cortex (PFC) and the nucleus accumbens core (NAcore) are known regions associated with cocaine- and sucrose-seeking ensembles, i.e., a sparse population of co-activated neurons. Within ensembles, transcriptomic alterations in the PFC and NAcore underlie the learning and persistence of cocaine- and sucrose-seeking behavior. However, transcriptomes exclusively driving cocaine seeking independent from sucrose seeking have not yet been defined using a within-subject approach. Using Ai14:cFos-TRAP2 transgenic mice in a dual cocaine and sucrose self-administration model, we fluorescently sorted (FACS) and characterized (RNAseq) the transcriptomes defining cocaine- and sucrose-seeking ensembles. We found reward- and region-specific transcriptomic changes that will help develop clinically relevant genetic approaches to decrease cocaine-seeking behavior without altering non-drug reward-based positive reinforcement.
