Genetic inactivation of serine racemase produces behavioral phenotypes related to schizophrenia in mice

ABSTRACT: Abnormal N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) function has been implicated in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. D-serine is an important NMDAR modulator, and to elucidate the role of the D-serine synthesis enzyme serine racemase (Srr) in schizophrenia, we identified and characterized mice with an ENU-induced mutation that results in a complete loss of Srr activity and drastically reduced D-serine levels. Mutant mice displayed behaviors relevant to schizophrenia, including impairments in prepulse inhibition, sociability and spatial discrimination. Behavioral deficits were rescued by D-serine and the atypical antipsychotic clozapine, and were conversely, amplified by NMDAR inhibition. Expression profiling revealed that the Srr mutation influenced several genes that have been linked to schizophrenia and cognitive ability. Furthermore, analysis of Srr genetic variants in humans identified a robust association with schizophrenia. This study demonstrates that aberrant serine racemase function and diminished D-serine may contribute to schizophrenia pathogenesis, and that D-serine may be a beneficial form of treatment Keywords: genetic-mutant vs. wildtype comparison

NMDA glutamate receptor antagonist MK-801 induces proteome changes in adult human brain slices which are partially counteracted by haloperidol and clozapine

Project description:Deciphering the molecular pathways associated with N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAr) hypofunction and its interaction with antipsychotics is necessary to advance our understanding of the basis of schizophrenia, as well as our capacity to treat this disease. In this regard, the development of human brain-derived models amenable for studying the neurobiology of schizophrenia may contribute to fill the gaps led by the widely employed animal models. Here we assessed the proteomic changes induced by the NMDA glutamate receptor antagonist MK-801 on human brain slice cultures obtained from adult donors submitted to resective neurosurgery. Initially, we demonstrated that MK-801 diminishes NMDA glutamate receptor signaling in human brain slices in culture. Next, using mass- spectrometry-based proteomics and systems biology in silico analyses, we found that MK-801 led to alterations in proteins related to several pathways previously associated with schizophrenia pathophysiology including ephrin, opioid, melatonin, sirtuin signaling, interleukin 8, endocannabinoid and synaptic vesicle cycle. We also evaluated the impact of both typical and atypical antipsychotics on MK-801-induced proteome changes. Interestingly, the atypical antipsychotic clozapine showed a more significant capacity to counteract the protein alterations induced by NMDAr hypofunction than haloperidol. Finally, using our dataset we identified potential modulators of the MK-801-induced proteome changes, which may be considered promising targets to treat NMDAr hypofunction in schizophrenia.

Serine racemase is required for colorectal tumor growth and a potential therapeutic target.

Project description:Serine racemase (SRR) is an enzyme that catalyzes two reactions, the racemization and the dehydration of L-Ser and D-Ser and has been studied mainly in the fields of central nervous system. The function of SRR in cancer metabolism has not been elucidated. Here we show that SRR expression is upregulated in colorectal adenoma and adenocarcinoma lesions compared to non-neoplastic mucosa in human colorectal cancer specimens. Further analysis by using CRISPR/CRISPR-associated protein 9 system reveals that SRR enhances colorectal cancer cell proliferation via maintaining intracellular pyruvate and mitochondrial mass resulting in higher basal reactive oxygen species level, and has anti-apoptotic function.

Toxicoproteomics reveals an effect of Clozapine on autophagy in human liver spheroids

Project description:Clozapine is an atypical antipsychotic drug for treatment-resistant schizophrenia. Its side effects, including liver enzyme abnormalities, experienced by many patients preclude a more common use as a first-line therapy of schizophrenia. Toxicoproteomics approaches have been demonstrated to effectively guide the identification of toxicological mechanisms. Here, to further our understanding of Clozapine's molecular effects we performed a Data-independent Acquisition (DIA)-based quantitative proteomics investigation of Clozapine-treated human liver spheroid cultures. In total, we quantified 4,479 proteins across five treatment groups (vehicle, 15 µM, 30 µM, 60 µM Clozapine, and 10 ng/mL TNFa + IL-1a). 60 µM Clozapine treatment yielded 36 differentially expressed proteins (fdr < 0.05). Gene-set enrichment analysis indicated perturbation of several gene-sets, which included interferon gamma signaling (e.g., IFNGR1) and prominently autophagy related processes (e.g., upregulation of SQSTM1, MAP1LC3B/LC3B2, GABARAPL2, and NCOA4). Clozapine's effects on autophagy were confirmed using conventional SQSTM1 and LC3B markers by targeted mass-spectrometry and Western Blot.

Toxicoproteomics reveals an effect of Clozapine on autophagy in human liver spheroids

Project description:Clozapine is an atypical antipsychotic drug used to treat treatment-resistant schizophrenia. Its side effects, including liver enzyme abnormalities, experienced by many patients preclude its more common use as a first-line therapy for schizophrenia. Toxicoproteomic approaches have been demonstrated to effectively guide the identification of toxicological mechanisms. Here, to further our understanding of the molecular effects of clozapine, we performed a data-independent acquisition (DIA)-based quantitative proteomics investigation of clozapine-treated human liver spheroid cultures. In total, we quantified 4,479 proteins across the five treatment groups (vehicle; 15 µM, 30 µM, and 60 µM clozapine; and 10 ng/mL TNFα + IL-1β). Clozapine (60 µM) treatment yielded 36 differentially expressed proteins (FDR < 0.05). Gene-set enrichment analysis indicated perturbation of several gene sets, including interferon gamma signaling (e.g., interferon gamma receptor 1) and prominent autophagy-related processes (e.g., upregulation of sequestosome-1 (SQSTM1), MAP1LC3B/LC3B2, GABARAPL2, and nuclear receptor coactivator 4). The effects of clozapine on autophagy were confirmed by targeted mass spectrometry and western blotting using conventional SQSTM1 and LC3B markers. Combined with prior literature, our work suggests a broad contribution of autophagy to both the therapeutic and side effects of clozapine. Overall, this study demonstrates how proteomics can contribute to the elucidation of physiological and toxicological mechanisms of drugs.

Transcription profiling of mouse brain after twelve week treatment with the antipsychotics Clozapine and Haloperidol

Project description:Atypical antipsychotic Clozapine has a superior antipsychotic and antimanic effects compared to other antisphicotics. Its widespread use was limited by the side effects of agranulocytosis, cardiomyopathy and metabolic anomalies such as weight gain, and diabetes. Very little is known about mechanisms by which Clozapine works. The aim of this experiment is to compare the chronic gene expression profile of the atypical antipsychotic Clozapine to the typical antipsychotic drug Haloperidol using gene expression Microarray in order to understand the intercellular mechanism behind the therapeutic and the toxic effects of Clozapine. Experiment Overall Design: The study was designed to compare the chronic therapeutic and toxic expression profile of Clozapine to Haloperidol in the mouse brain. All experiments were performed in male C57BL mice at four weeks of age (Biological services, University Collage London). Several theoretical and practical considerations influenced the final experimental design. To avoid the effect of injections on genes expression and to simulate the clinical scenario in human, both drugs were applied to the animals drinking water using the maximum human therapeutic dose (i.e. 1.6mg/kg/day for Haloperidol and 12mg/kg/day for Clozapine). Thirty animals were divided equally between three treatment groups and received either Haloperidol (10 animals), Clozapine (10 animals) or no treatment (10 animals) for 12 weeks. After twelve weeks, the total RNA from the right forebrains were extracted and hybridized to the Affymetrix MOE430A array. In all the Microarray experiments we have avoided pooling and each RNA sample was an independent biological replicate. The total numbers of used arrays were 30 Affymetrix MOE430A arrays.
