Epigenetic priming of memory updating during reconsolidation to attenuate remote fear memories

ABSTRACT: Remembrances of traumata range among the most enduring forms of memories. Despite the elevated lifetime prevalence of anxiety disorders, effective strategies to attenuate long-term traumatic memories are scarce. The most efficacious treatments to diminish recent (i.e., day-old) traumata capitalize on memory updating mechanisms during reconsolidation that are initiated upon memory recall. Here, we show that in mice successful reconsolidation-updating paradigms for recent memories fail to attenuate remote (i.e., month-old) ones. We find that whereas recent memory recall induces a limited period of hippocampal neuroplasticity mediated, in part, by S-nitrosylation of HDAC2 and histone acetylation, such plasticity is absent for remote memories. However, by using an HDAC2-targeting inhibitor (HDACi) during reconsolidation, even remote memories can be persistently attenuated. This intervention epigenetically primes the expression of neuroplasticity-related genes as revealed by whole genome RNA sequencing, which is accompanied by higher metabolic, synaptic and structural plasticity. Thus, applying HDACis during memory reconsolidation might constitute a treatment option for remote traumata. 3 biological replicates per group were analyzed. The material analyzed was whole hippocampi from one brain hemisphere, from which total RNA was extracted.

Primary cilia are required for the persistence of memory and stabilization of perineuronal nets

Project description:We investigate the gene expression changes occurring during the transition of aversive episodic memories from recent to remote. Early mechanisms of memory formation (synaptic consolidation) have been extensively characterized. However, delayed mechanisms (systems consolidation), which maintain hippocampal activity as memories stabilize in cortical circuits, are not well understood. Transcriptomic analysis reveals that, contrary to the transient expression of early- and delayed-response genes, the expression of cytoskeleton- and extracellular matrix- associated genes remains dynamic even at remote time points. The most profound expression changes clustered around primary cilium-associated and collagen genes.

RNA sequencing from neural ensembles activated during fear conditioning in the mouse temporal association cortex

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.

Synaptically recruited lncRNA SLAMR facilitates structural plasticity in fear memory consolidation by modulatin translation

Project description:LncRNAs are involved in critical processes for cell homeostasis and function. However, it remains largely unknown whether and how the transcriptional regulation of long noncoding RNAs results in activity-dependent changes at the synapse and facilitate formation of long-term memories. Here, we report the identification of a novel lncRNA, SLAMR, that becomes enriched in CA1- but not in CA3-hippocampal neurons upon contextual fear conditioning. SLAMR is transported to dendrites via the molecular motor KIF5C and recruited to the synapse in response to stimulation. Loss of function of SLAMR reduced dendritic complexity and impaired activity-dependent changes in spine structural plasticity. Interestingly, the gain of function of SLAMR enhanced dendritic complexity, and spine density through enhanced translation. Analyses of the SLAMR interactome revealed its association with CaMKIIa protein through a 220-nucleotide element and its modulation of CaMKIIa activity. Furthermore, loss-of-function of SLAMR in CA1 selectively impairs consolidation but neither acquisition, recall, nor extinction of fear memory and spatial memory. Together, these results establish a new mechanism for activity dependent changes at the synapse and consolidation of contextual fear memory.

Early remodeling of the neocortex upon episodic memory encoding

Project description:Understanding the mechanisms by which long-term memories are formed and stored in the brain represents a central aim of neuroscience. Prevailing theory suggests that long-term memory encoding involves early plasticity within hippocampal circuits, while reorganization of the neocortex is thought to occur weeks to months later to subserve remote memory storage. Here we report that long-term memory encoding can elicit early transcriptional, structural and functional remodeling of the neocortex. Parallel studies using genome-wide RNA-sequencing, ultrastructural imaging, and whole-cell recording in wild-type mice suggest that contextual fear conditioning initiates a transcriptional program in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) that is accompanied by rapid expansion of the synaptic active zone and postsynaptic density, enhanced dendritic spine plasticity, and increased synaptic efficacy. To address the real-time contribution of the mPFC to long-term memory encoding, we performed temporally precise optogenetic inhibition of excitatory mPFC neurons during contextual fear conditioning. Using this approach, we found that real-time inhibition of the mPFC inhibited activation of the entorhinal-hippocampal circuit and impaired the formation of long-term associative memory. These findings suggest that encoding of long-term episodic memory is associated with early remodeling of neocortical circuits, identify the prefrontal cortex as a critical regulator of encoding-induced hippocampal activation and long-term memory formation, and have important implications for understanding memory processing in healthy and diseased brain states. 4 biological replicates per group were analyzed. The material analyzed was medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC; anterior cingulate cortex subregion) from both brain hemispheres, from which total RNA was extracted.

Multi-scale epigenomic priming of inflammatory genes enables rapid recall in human memory T helper cells [ChIP-seq]

Project description:Memory T cells provide long-lasting defense responses through their ability to rapidly reactivate. How memory T cells efficiently ‘recall’ an inflammatory transcriptional program remains unclear. Here, we show that primary human CD4+ memory T helper (Th) cells carry three distinct activation-inducible recall gene modules that drive metabolic adaptation, T cell activation and inflammatory cytokine production. Enhancer elements controlling recall genes were epigenetically primed through the local maintenance of transcription-permissive chromatin in resting memory Th cells. At the three-dimensional level, recall genes clustered in transcriptionally permissive subnuclear compartments and resided in topologically associating domains (‘memory TADs’), in which activation-associated promoter-enhancer interactions were pre-formed. This primed epigenomic landscape was exploited by AP-1 transcription factors - including MAF - to promote rapid transcriptional activation. Finally, recall genes and their enhancers were linked to memory Th cell dysfunction in chronic inflammatory disease. Together, our results implicate multi-scale epigenomic priming - comprising a specialized three-dimensional chromatin organization - as a key mechanism underlying immunological memory.

Extracellular vesicle proteome of breast cancer patients with and without cognitive impairment following anthracycline-based chemotherapy

Project description:Cognitive impairment due to cancer and its therapy is a major concern among cancer survivors. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) composition altered by cancer and chemotherapy may affect neurological processes such as neuroplasticity, potentially impacting the cognitive abilities of cancer survivors. We investigated the EV proteome of breast cancer patients with and without cognitive impairment following anthracycline-based chemotherapy from longitudinally collected plasma. EVs were cup-shaped and positive for Flotillin-1 and TSG-101. We identified 517 differentially expressed EV proteins between the cognitive impaired and non-impaired groups during and post-chemotherapy. The observed decreased expression of p2X purinoceptor, cofilin-1, ADAM 10, and dynamin-1 in the plasma EVs of cognitive impaired group may suggest alterations in mechanisms underlying synaptic plasticity. The reduced expression of tight junction proteins among cognitive-impaired patients may imply weakening of the blood-brain barrier. These EV protein signatures may serve as a fingerprint that underscore the mechanisms underlying cognitive impairment in cancer survivors.

Trancriptional comparison of Zbtb32-deficient and -sufficient polyclonal resting memory B cells

Project description:Memory B cell responses are more rapid and of greater magnitude than are primary antibody responses. The mechanisms by which these secondary responses are eventually attenuated remain unknown. We demonstrate that the transcription factor ZBTB32 limits the rapidity and duration of antibody recall responses. ZBTB32 is highly expressed by mouse and human memory B cells, but not by their naÃ¯ve counterparts. Zbtb32-/- mice mount normal primary antibody responses to T-dependent antigens. However, Zbtb32-/- memory B cell-mediated recall responses occur more rapidly and persist longer than do control responses. Microarray analyses demonstrate that Zbtb32-/- secondary bone marrow plasma cells display elevated expression of genes that promote cell cycle progression and mitochondrial function relative to wild-type controls. BrdU labeling and adoptive transfer experiments confirm more rapid production and a cell-intrinsic survival advantage of Zbtb32-/- secondary plasma cells relative to wild-type counterparts. ZBTB32 is therefore a novel negative regulator of antibody recall responses. Wild type and Zbtb32-/- resting polyclonal splenic memory B cells were purified by fluorescence activated cell sorting, RNA was extracted, and used for Affymetrix microarray analysis. 5 biological replicates of wild type and Zbtb32-/- cells were included for each cell type.
