Project description:Organisms need to co-ordinate growth with development particularly in the context of nutrient availability. Thus, multiple ways have evolved to survive extrinsic nutrient deprivation during development. In the holometabolous insect Drosophila, growth occurs during larval development. Larvae are therefore critically dependent on nutritional inputs for pupariation. Post critical weight however, they pupariate even when starved. How nutrient availability is coupled to the internal metabolic state for the decision to pupariate in not well understood and needs better understanding. Wild type larvae, when subjected to nutrient deprivation as mid-third instar larvae, pupariate and also emerge as adults, even though smaller than normally fed ones (Jayakumar et al., 2016; Megha and Hasan, 2017). A recent study (Jayakumar et al., 2016) identified a neuronal circuit that enables wild-type larvae to survive protein deprivation and pupariate. IP3R function in a subset of glutamatergic neurons is a crucial part of the circuit. However, the cellular role of IP3R in these neurons is not understood. In Drosophila neurons, the IP3R causes and facilitates store-operated calcium entry (Chakraborty et al., 2016; Venkiteswaran and Hasan, 2009). Thus it is likely, that the IP3R also regulates expression of genes that regulate this phenomenon. In this study, we have compared the gene expression profiles of control and itpr knockdown larval brains to identify genes that act downstream of the IP3R to regulate pupariation under nutrition stress.

Project description:The Stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1) is an ER-Ca2+ sensor and an essential component of ER-Ca2+ store operated Ca2+entry (SOCE). Loss of STIM1 affects metabotropic Glutamate Receptor 1 (mGluR1) mediated synaptic transmission, neuronal Ca2+ homeostasis and intrinsic plasticity in Purkinje Neurons (PNs). Long-term changes of intracellular Ca2+ signaling in PNs lead to neurodegenerative conditions, as evident in individuals with mutations of the ER-Ca2+ channel, the Inositol, 1,4,5-triphosphate receptor (IP3R). Moreover, Changes in gene expression upon reduced SOCE in non-excitable immune cells, the developing mouse brain, Drosophila pupal neurons and human neural precursor cells have been reported. Gene expression profiles of mature differentiated neurons with loss of STIM1/nSOC have not been published to date. The study evaluated the differential gene expression in STIM1 knockout purkinje neurons compared to wild type purkinje neurons from 1 year old mice. Analysis of gene expression profiles demonstrated that STIM1 dependent Ca2+ homeostasis and signaling helps to maintain the expression of multiple key components of synaptic architecture and function in ageing animals. Our findings are significant in the context of finding new therapeutic means of alleviating the neurodegenerative changes associated with human SCAs.

Project description:AMPA receptors are involved not only in neuronal plasticity but also in excitotoxicity, mediated largely by the influx of Ca2+ (Choi et al., 1988). Their implication has been highlighted in animal models of ischemia and epilepsy. Studies of ischemic rodent models featured that prior to cell death, hippocampal CA1 pyramidal cells exhibit an increased AMPA receptor-mediated Ca2+ influx and decreased GluR2 and GluR3 mRNA and protein levels (Gorter et al., 1997; Heuerteaux et al., 1995). A total of 15 RNA samples were analyzed. Cultured murine primary cortical neurons were treated with 300uM AMPA over a time-course of 5h, 15h and 24h (n=3) in addition to the vehicle control (n=6).

Project description:Congenital heart defects (CHDs) occur in 0.5–1% of live births, yet the underlying genetic etiology remains mostly unknown. Recently, a new source of myocardial cells, namely the second heart field (SHF), was discovered in the splanchnic mesoderm. Abnormal development of the SHF leads to a spectrum of outflow tract defects, such as persistent truncus arteriosus and tetralogy of Fallot. Intracellular Ca2+ signaling is known to be essential formany aspects of heart biology including heart development, but its role in the SHF is uncertain. Here, we analyzed mice deficient for genes encoding inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP3Rs), which are intracellular Ca2+ release channels on the endo/sarcoplasmic reticulum that mediate Ca2+ mobilization. Mouse embryos that are double mutant for IP3R type 1 and type 3 (IP3R1−/−IP3R3−/−) show hypoplasia of the outflow tract and the right ventricle, reduced expression of specific molecular markers and enhanced apoptosis ofmesodermal cells in the SHF. Gene expression analyses suggest that IP3R-mediated Ca2+ signalingmay involve, at least in part, theMef2C–Smyd1 pathway, a transcriptional cascade essential for the SHF. These data reveal that IP3R type 1 and type 3 may play a redundant role in the development of the SHF. In total 4 samples were analyzed, they represent two different genotypes (wt, double ko) that were tested in duplicate each.

Project description:In differentiated skeletal muscle, intracellular Ca2+ concentrations rise dramatically upon membrane depolarization, constituting the link between excitation and contraction (EC). Transient rises in [Ca2+]i mainly emerge from Ca2+ released by the type 1 ryanodine receptor (RYR1) and, in non-adult muscle, by the inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate receptor (IP3R) of the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR), the dominant Ca2+ store in skeletal muscle. While the IP3R-mediated, slow Ca2+ transients, have been implicated in cell signaling and development, RYR1’s non-contractile role(s) remain obscure. We used a homozygous mouse RyR1 knockout model (dyspedic) to investigate the effects of the absence of a functional RYR1 and, consequently, the lack of RyR1-mediated Ca2+ signaling during embryogenesis. While heterozygous mice of the model are undistinguishable from WT littermates, homozygous dyspedic mice die at birth from asphyxia, since their skeletal muscle does not support EC coupling. Furthermore, they display abnormal spine curvature, subcutaneous hematomas, small limbs, and enlarged neck. Skeletal muscles from front and hind limbs of dyspedic embryos (day E18.5) were subjected to microarray analyses, revealing 318 genes, significantly regulated by at least 50 % compared to control heterozygous littermates.

Project description:Many addictive drugs such as nicotine mediate reward and reinforcing mechanisms within the mesolimbic pathway involving midbrain dopaminergic (mDA) neurons via nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs). Previously, genome-wide association analyses (GWAs) identified several nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) associated with increased risk of addictive phenotypes including the nonsynonymous rs16969968 SNP encoding D398->N398 variation in the CHRNA5 gene (Bierut et al., 2008; Saccone et al., 2007) . However, the etiology and the pathophysiology associated with the N398 allele is unknown. Previous animal studies using a knock-in of human CHRNA5 N398 revealed increased nicotine consumption. However, given the evolutionary distance between mice and humans, identifying intrinsic factors that affect addiction may correlate poorly, limiting the conclusiveness of these studies. In this study, induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines were derived from cryopreserved lymphocytes drawn from patients with homozygous minor alleles (N398) of rs16969968 and demonstrated nicotine addiction as well as age- and gender-matched unaffected controls carrying the major allele (D398). Cultures of primarily mDA neurons were prepared from these iPSC lines. Gene expression analysis using RT-PCR and RNAseq revealed similar expression of mRNAs encoding subunits of nAChR in mDA neurons derived from both D398 and N398 iPSC lines, however, gene ontology (GO) analysis revealed an increased enrichment of genes associated with neuroactive ligand-receptor interactions and Ca2+ signaling pathways in N398 neurons. Moreover, the N398 neuronal population responded more actively to application of nicotine in both electrophysiological analysis and Ca2+-imaging analysis. Together, these results suggest that the N398 variation affects Ca2+-signaling in neurons, which may explain the predisposition of subjects carrying this mutation for addictive behavior in subjects carrying the nonsynonymous rs16969968 SNP (Sherva et al., 2008).
