Project description:Epilepsy is a common cause of morbidity affecting approximately one third of patients with primary brain tumors. However, the molecular mechanism underlying the tumor induced epileptogenesis is poorly understood. The alteration in peritumoral microenvironments is believed to play a significant role in inducing epileptogenesis. We hypothesize that the change of gene expression in neighboring astrocytes and neurons may contribute to the increased neuronal excitability and epileptogenesis.

Project description:Malignant gliomas represent the most devastating group of brain tumors in adults, among which glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) exhibits the highest malignancy rate. Despite combined modality treatment, GBM recurs and is invariably fatal. A further insight into molecular background of gliomagenesis is required to improve patient outcome. The first aim of this study was to gain broad information on miRNA expression pattern in malignant gliomas, mainly GBM. We investigated the global miRNA profile of malignant glioma tissues by means of miRNA microarrays, deep sequencing and meta-analysis. We selected miRNAs the most frequently deregulated in glioblastoma tissues as well as peritumoral brain areas in comparison to normal human brain. We found candidate miRNAs contributing to progression from gliomas grade III to gliomas grade IV. The meta-analysis of miRNA profiling studies in GBM tissues summarizes the past and recent advances in an investigation of miRNA signature in GBM versus noncancerous human brain and provides a comprehensive overview. We proposed a set of 35 miRNAs which expression is the most frequently deregulated in GBM patients and 30 miRNA candidates recognized as novel GBM biomarkers. miRNA expression profile in the adult malignant gliomas, glioma peritumoral tissues and normal human brain.

Project description:The molecular basis of epileptogenesis is poorly characterized. Studies in humans and animal models have identified an electrophysiological signature that precedes the onset of epilepsy, which has been termed fast ripples (FRs) based on its frequency. Multiple lines of evidence implicate regions generating FRs in epileptogenesis, and FRs appear to demarcate the seizure onset zone, suggesting a role in ictogenesis as well. We performed gene expression analysis comparing areas of the dentate gyrus that generate FRs to those that do not generate FRs in a well-characterized rat model of epilepsy. We identified a small cohort of genes that are differentially expressed in FR versus non-FR brain tissue and used quantitative PCR to validate some of those that modulate neuronal excitability. Gene expression network analysis demonstrated conservation of gene co-expression between non-FR and FR samples, but examination of gene connectivity revealed changes that were most pronounced in the cm-40 module, which contains several genes associated with synaptic function and the differentially expressed genes Kcna4, Kcnv1, and Npy1r that are down-regulated in FRs. We then demonstrate that the genes within the cm-40 module are regulated by seizure activity and enriched for the targets of the RNA binding protein Elavl4. Our data suggest that seizure activity induces co-expression of genes associated with synaptic transmission and that this pattern is attenuated in areas displaying FRs, implicating the failure of this mechanism in the generation of FRs. 21 samples, 10 fast ripple areas and 11 paired non-fast ripples areas

Project description:Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) represent neurodevelopmental disorders characterized by social deficits, repetitive behaviors, and various comorbidities, including epilepsy. ANK2, which encodes a neuronal scaffolding protein, is frequently mutated in ASD, but its in vivo functions and disease-related mechanisms are largely unknown. Here, we report that mice with Ank2 knockout restricted to cortical and hippocampal excitatory neurons (Ank2-cKO mice) show ASD-related behavioral abnormalities and juvenile seizure-related death. Ank2-cKO cortical neurons show abnormally increased excitability and firing rate. These changes accompanied decreases in the total level and function of the Kv7.2/KCNQ2 and Kv7.3/KCNQ3 potassium channels and the density of these channels in the enlengthened axon initial segment. Importantly, the Kv7 agonist, retigabine, rescued neuronal excitability, juvenile seizure-related death, and hyperactivity in Ank2-cKO mice. These results suggest that Ank2 regulates neuronal excitability by regulating the length of and Kv7 density in the AIS and that Kv7 channelopathy is involved in Ank2-related brain dysfunctions.

Project description:Traumatic brain injury occasionally causes posttraumatic epilepsy. To elucidate the molecular events responsible for posttraumatic epilepsy, we established a rodent model that involved the injection of microliter quantities of FeCl3 solution into the amygdalar nuclear complex. We previously compared hippocampal gene expression profiles in the traumatic epilepsy model and normal rats at 5 days after brain injury (acute phase) and observed the role of inflammation. In this study, we focused on later stages of epileptogenesis. We compared gene expression profiles at 5, 15 (sub-chronic phase), and 30 days (chronic phase) after brain injury to identify temporal changes in molecular networks involved in epileptogenesis. A total of 81 genes was significantly (at least 2-fold) up- or downregulated over the course of disease progression. We found that genes related to lipid metabolism, namely, Apoa1, Gh, Mc4r, Oprk1, and Pdk4, were temporarily upregulated in the sub-chronic phase. Changes in lipid metabolism regulation might be related to seizure propagation during epileptogenesis. This temporal description of hippocampal gene expression profiles throughout epileptogenesis provides clues to potential markers of disease phases and new therapeutic targets.

Project description:To determine how the loss of TSC induces epileptogenesis, we made use of an inducible Tsc1 knock-out mouse model. Tsc1 was homozygously deleted in all CAMK2A positive neurons. Hippocampal tissue was collected at different time points after gene deletion and during epileptogenesis, of mice of both sexes. Also, mice treated with 10mg/kg rapamycin were included in the experiment. Using RNA-seq analysis, we identified differentially expressed genes encoding either ion channel and/or genes belonging to the GO-term ‘action potential’. Of these genes, 50% were already significantly dysregulated before or just around seizure onset, suggesting that these genes could be driver genes of epileptogenesis. Of the genes encoding ion channels or belonging to the Gene Ontology term action potential, 27 were differentially expressed just before seizure onset, suggesting a potential driving role in epileptogenesis. Our data highlight the complex changes driving epileptogenesis in TSC, including the changed expression of multiple ion channels. Our study emphasizes inhibition of the TSC/mTOR signaling pathway as a promising therapeutic approach to target epilepsy in patients with TSC.

Project description:Methyl CpG binding domain 3 (Mbd3) protein belongs to the MBD family of proteins, responsible for reading the DNA methylation pattern. MBD family proteins bind the methyl-CpG domain and are also involved in heterochromatin formation. Mbd3 protein does not have the ability to selectively recognize methyl-CpG islands, however, its characteristic feature is the ability to bind to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine and unmethylated DNA. Little is known about the role of Mbd3 in epilepsy and epileptogenesis. Our previous study (Bednarczyk et al., 2016) showed an increase in levels of NuRD complex proteins, including Mbd3 protein, in the brain of epileptic animals in a rat model of temporal epilepsy induced by electrical stimulation of the amygdala. Amygdala stimulation induced the binding of NuRD complex containing MBD3 to larger number of regions of DNA. In the present study, we investigated whether the Mbd3 protein is involved in the determination of the seizure threshold. An increase in Mbd3 protein levels was demonstrated in the entorhinal cortex/amygdala in the rat’s brain 4 hours after pentylenetetrazole (PTZ)-induced seizures. No alterations in MBD3 protein levels were detected in hippocampus and somatosensory cortex. No alterations in MBD3 mRNA expression were observed at any time point in any studied brain area. Reduction of Mbd3 level using AAV vector coding shRNA against Mbd3 injected to the amygdala prolonged the latency time to the onset of an acute seizure in PTZ challenge test indicating increase in seizure threshold. This was accompanied by increased anxiety in the open field test. In the contrast, an overexpression of Mbd3 using AAV decreased anxiety and increased their excitability in the open field test. Moreover Mbd3 overexpression in the amygdala accelerated epileptogenesis in the PTZ-kindling model. In order to identify the role of Mbd3 protein in the regulation of gene expression, mRNA profiling with RNA-seq was performed in a model of magnesium deficiency-induced epileptiform discharges in vitro. Mbd3 overexpression in vitro induced changes in gene expression in a time- and state-specific manner. Our data indicate the pro-epileptic properties of the Mbd3 protein in vivo and in vitro.
