Serotonin receptor 4 in the hippocampus modulates mood and anxiety

ABSTRACT: Serotonin receptor 4 (5‑HT4R) plays an important role in regulating mood, anxiety, and cognition, and drugs that activate this receptor have fast-acting antidepressant (AD)-like effects in preclinical models. However, 5‑HT4R is widely expressed throughout the central nervous system (CNS) and periphery, making it difficult to pinpoint the cell types and circuits underlying its effects. Therefore, we generated a Cre-dependent 5‑HT4R knockout mouse line to dissect the function of 5‑HT4R in specific brain regions and cell types. We show that the loss of functional 5‑HT4R specifically from excitatory neurons of hippocampus led to robust AD-like behavioral responses and an elevation in baseline anxiety. 5‑HT4R was necessary to maintain the proper excitability of dentate gyrus (DG) granule cells and cell type specific molecular profiling revealed a dysregulation of genes necessary for normal neural function and plasticity in cells lacking 5‑HT4R. These adaptations were accompanied by an increase in the number of immature neurons in ventral, but not dorsal, dentate gyrus, indicating a broad impact of 5‑HT4R loss on the local cellular environment. This study is the first to use conditional genetic targeting to demonstrate a direct role for hippocampal 5‑HT4R signaling in modulating mood and anxiety. Our findings also underscore the need for cell type-based approaches to elucidate the complex action of neuromodulatory systems on distinct neural circuits.

miR-17-92 cluster regulates adult hippocampal neurogenesis, anxiety and depression

Project description:Emerging evidence has shown that noncoding RNAs, particularly microRNAs (miRNAs), contribute to the pathogenesis of mood and anxiety disorders, although the molecular mechanisms are poorly understood. Here we show altered levels of miR-17-92 in adult hippocampal neural progenitors have a significant impact in neurogenesis and anxiety- and depression-related behaviors in mice. miR-17-92 deletion in adult neural progenitors causes a decrease, while its overexpression an increase of neurogenesis in the dentate gyrus, through regulating genes in the glucocorticoid pathway, especially serum- and glucocorticoid-inducible protein kinase-1 (Sgk1). miR-17-92 knockout mice show anxiety- and depression-like behaviors, whereas miR-17-92 overexpressing mice exhibit anxiolytic and antidepression-like behaviors. Furthermore, we show that miR-17-92 expression in the adult mouse hippocampus responds to chronic stress, and miR-17-92 rescues proliferation defects, induced by corticosterone, in hippocampal neural progenitors. Our study uncovers a crucial role for miR-17-92 in adult neural progenitors to regulate neurogenesis and anxiety- and depression-like behaviors.

Gene expression microarray analysis on the dentate gyrus of alpha-CaMKII HKO mice

Project description:We previously found that mice with heterozygous knockout of the alpha-isoform of calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (alpha-CaMKII HKO mice) show various dysregulated behaviors, including cyclic variations in locomotor activity (LA), suggesting that alpha-CaMKII HKO mice may serve as an animal model showing infradian oscillation of mood. We performed gene expression microarray analysis of dentate gyrus from alpha-CaMKII HKO mice. Mice were selected for the sampling such that their LA levels varied among the mice. Dentate gyrus RNA isolated from alpha-CaMKII HKO mice.

Beneficial effects of physical exercise and an orally active mGluR2/3 antagonist pro-drug on neurogenesis and behavior in an Alzheimer’s amyloidosis model

Project description:BCI-838 is a pro-drug whose active metabolite BCI-632 is an antagonist at the group II metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluR2/3). Hippocampal dentate gyrus of four-month old mouse model of AD amyloid pathology (APP/PS1) were investigated via transcriptomics analysis following BCI-838 treatment and physical exercise. Findings demonstrate up-regulated brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), PIK3C2A of the PI3K-MTOR pathway, and metabotropic glutamate receptors, and down-regulated EIF5A of ketamine-modulating mTOR activity. Our study points to BCI-838 as a safe and orally active compound capable of mimicking the beneficial effect of exercise on AHN, learning behavior, and anxiety in a mouse model of AD neuropathology.

The metabolic regulator USF1 is involved in the control of affective behaviour in mice

Project description:Epidemiological studies indicate a bidirectional association between metabolic disturbances, including obesity and related pathological states, and mood disorders, most prominently major depression. However, the biological mechanisms mediating the comorbid relationship between the deranged metabolic and mood states remain incompletely understood. Here we tested the hypothesis that the enhanced activation of brown fat tissue (BAT), known to beneficially regulate obesity and accompanying dysfunctional metabolic states is also paralleled by an alteration of affective behaviour. We used upstream stimulatory factor 1 (USF1) knock-out mice as a genetic model of constitutively activated BAT with a positive cardiometabolic profile and find a reduction of depression- and anxiety-like behaviour associated with USF1 deficiency. Surgical removal of interscapular BAT did not impact the behavioural phenotype of USF1 KO mice which was not accompanied by alterations of neural progenitor cell proliferation, differentiation or survival in the hippocampal dentate gyrus. RNAseq analysis characterized the molecular signature of USF1 deficiency in the hippocampus and revealed a significant increase in the expression of several members of the X-linked lymphocyte-regulated (xlr) genes, including xlr3b and xlr4b, implicated in the regulation of dendritic branching, dendritic spine number and morphology. These molecular changes were accompanied by morphological alterations in hippocampal neurons, manifested reduced dendritic length and complexity. Collectively these data suggest that the metabolic regulator USF1 is involved in the control of affective behaviour in mice and that this modulation of mood states is unrelated to USF1-dependent BAT activation, but instead associates with structural changes in the brain.

Gene expression profiling of high (HAB) vs. low (LAB) and normal (NAB) anxiety-related behavior mice in five laser microdissected brain regions.

Project description:Investigating the molecular basis and correlates of anxiety-related and depression-like behaviors, we generated a mouse model consisting of high (HAB), normal (NAB) and low (LAB) anxiety-related behavior mice. We utilized the elevated plus-maze for testing the genetic predisposition to anxiety-related behavior and, consequently, used this as selection criterion for the inbreeding of our animals. In depression-related tests, HAB mice display a more passive, depression-like coping strategy than LAB mice, resembling clinical comorbidity of anxiety and depression as observed in psychiatric patients. Using a microarray approach, the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN), the basolateral (BLA) and central amygdala (CeA), the cingulate cortex (Cg) and the dentate gyrus (DG) – centers of the central nervous anxiety and fear circuitries – were investigated and screened for differences between HAB, NAB and LAB mice. Analysis was performed from four to six animals per line (HAB, NAB and LAB from generation 25, respectively) per brain region, giving a total of 78 individual arrays analyzed. The LAB mouse line is referred to as reference.

MicroRNA-124 and -137 cooperativity controls caspase-3 activity through BCL2L13 in hippocampal neural stem cells.

Project description:Adult neurogenesis continuously contributes new neurons to hippocampal circuits and the programmed death of a subset of immature cells provides a primary mechanism controlling this contribution. Epileptic seizures induce strong structural changes in the hippocampus, including the induction of adult neurogenesis, changes in gene expression and mitochondrial dysfunction, which may all contribute to epileptogenesis. However, a possible interplay between this factors remains largely unexplored. Here, we investigated gene expression changes in the hippocampal dentate gyrus shortly after prolonged seizures induced by kainic acid, focusing on mitochondrial functions. Using comparative proteomics, we identified networks of proteins differentially expressed shortly after seizure induction, including members of the BCL2 family and other mitochondrial proteins. Within these networks, we report for the first time that the atypical BCL2 protein BCL2L13 controls caspase-3 activity and cytochrome C release in neural stem/progenitor cells. This work has been published in Sci Rep. 2015 Jul 24;5:12448. doi: 10.1038/srep12448.
