Project description:Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is an endogenous modulator of neuronal activity by regulating GABA and glutamate release. Previously, we found that estradiol modulates NPY expression in the hippocampal dentate gyrus. Here we investigated which estrogen receptor type activation is required for the NPY expression. Further, we determined effects of estrogen receptor activation on NPY release. Finally, we determined the contribution of estrogen-mediated remodeling of the GABAergic and glutamatergic network in relation to changes in coupling with NPY in ovariectomized rats. We found that activation of either estrogen receptor type increases NPY expression as well as NPY release in the dentate gyrus. We also found that compared to OVX rats, estrogen replacement increases the likeness of synergistic/antagonistic coupling between the NPY and GABAergic synapse genes while the glutamatergic synapse genes are less likely coupled with NPY. The data together suggest that estrogen plays a critical role in regulation of activity of the NPY system and its coupling to GABAergic and glutamatergic synapses in female rat dentate gyrus. Two-conditions (E = beta-estradiol replacement vs O = oil) experiment. Biological replicates: 4E, 4O.

Project description:Diversification of cell adhesion molecules by alternative splicing is proposed to underlie molecular codes for neuronal wiring. Transcriptomic approaches mapped detailed cell type-specific mRNA splicing programs. However, it has been hard to probe synapse-specific localization and function of the resulting protein splice isoforms, or “proteoforms”, in vivo. We here apply a proteoform-centric workflow in mice to test synapse-specific functions of splice isoforms of the synaptic adhesion molecule Neurexin-3 (NRXN3). We uncover a major proteoform, NRXN3 AS5, that is highly expressed in GABAergic interneurons and dendrite-targeting GABAergic terminals. NRXN3 AS5 abundance significantly diverges from the distribution of the Nrxn3 mRNA and is gated by translation-repressive elements. Nrxn3 AS5 isoform deletion results in selective impairment of dendrite-targeting interneuron synapses in the dentate gyrus without affecting somatic inhibition or glutamatergic perforant-path synapses. This work establishes cell- and synapse-specific functions of a specific neurexin proteoform and highlights the importance of alternative splicing regulation for synapse specification.

Project description:Prenatal exposure to synthetic corticosteroids can significantly alter postnatal development through changes in neurotransmitters, peptides and their receptors, and thus having long-lasting behavioral effects. Some of these changes have been observed in animal experiments, others also in humans prenatally exposed to synthetic corticosteroids. Here, we focused on transcriptomic changes within the ARC of rats prenatally exposed to either betamethasone or saline. The expression of transcriptome has been assessed by novel computational tools to determine complex changes that may have life-long effects on phenotype, i.e., behavior. Total of 18,094 unigenes were quantified in the hypothalamic ARC of P14 male and female rats prenatally exposed to betametasone used in this experiment. Out of these genes, Kyoto Encyclopedia for Genes and Genomes (http://www.genome.jp) selected 112 for the dopaminergic synapse, 75 for the GABAergic and 97 for the glutamatergic synapse. We further analyzed composition, topology and modulatory networks of the genomic fabric of the dopaminergic, GABAergic, and glutamatergic synapse (the transcriptome of the most interconnected and stably expressed gene network responsible for specific transmission). Finally we investigated the M-bM-^@M-^\transcriptomic landscapeM-bM-^@M-^] of the GSF in the ARC of P14 males (M) and females (F) prenatally (G15) exposed to betamethasone (B) or saline (S). We combined in one measure (PWR = Pair-Wise Relevance) expression levels, controls and coordination of all pairs that can be formed by synapse genes with the other synapse genes, higher PWRs indicating larger influence of that gene pair to the fabric modulation. We found that prenatal exposure to betamethasone caused sex-dependent changes in the dopaminergic/GABA/glutamatergic synapse genes:. In males, 10 dopaminergic (9%), 4 GABAergic (5%) and 5 glutamatergic synapse genes (5%) were down-regulated. While in females, 9 dopaminergic (8%), 3 GABAergic (4%) and 6 glutamatergic (6%) synapse genes were downregulated. The data indicate that in both sexes the dopaminergic synapse was the most affected. In contrast, in control animals, no significant differences between male and female were present in these synapse genes. Since the most noticeable transcritpomic changes were found in the transcriptome of DA glutamatergic synapse, we investigated the expression of tyrosine-hydroxylase (TH) NMDA receptor subunits in the ARC. The western blot analyses and immunohistochemistry confirmed the sex-specific differences between prenatally betamethasone-exposed and saline-exposed P15 rats. Accordingly to the changes in gene expression, prenatal exposure to synthetic corticosteroids was associated with postnatal changes in behavior and susceptibility to certain types of seizures. While we did not find any significant impairements in normal behavioral patterns (open field activity), there was a sex-specific change in the novel object recognition test. We found that behavioral lateralization in females is lost after prenatal betamethasone exposure and both male and female prenatally betamethasone exposed rats were avoiding novelty. This trait is similar to children with autism and suggests that certain elements of autistic behaviors can be present after prenatal exposure to synthetic corticosteroids. Additionally, there were changes in the search patterns in the Morris water maze as well as in the Barnes maze. In conclusion, our work is consistent with findings of profound reprogramming changes in the brain after prenatal corticosteroid exposure associated with alterations cognitive functions and seizure susceptibility. Two-sexes (M, F) x two-condition (B = betamethasone prenataly exposed vs S = saline prenataly exposed) experiment. Biological replicates: 4 MS, 4 FS, 4 MB, 4 FB.

Project description:Our microarray results showed there were up-regulated 28 genes and down-regulated 29 genes, which related depression and inflammatory response such as cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, chemokine signaling pathway, dopaminergic synapse, glutamatergic synapse, GABAergic synapse, cholinergic synapse, and serotonergic synapse. Among these genes, especially, higher hippocampal mRNA expression of transthyretin (Ttr), Zinc finger protein of the cerebellum 1 (Zic1), and Ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase 2 (Enpp2) was found in kososan-administered defeated mice than water-administered defeated mice
