Loss of Prdm12 during development, but not in mature nociceptors, causes defects in pain sensation.

ABSTRACT: Prdm12 is a key transcription factor in nociceptor neurogenesis. Mutations of Prdm12 cause Congenital Insensitivity to Pain (CIP) due to failure of nociceptor development. However, precisely how deletion of Prdm12 during development or adulthood affects nociception is unknown. Here, we employ tissue- and temporal-specific knockout mouse models to test the function of Prdm12 during development and in adulthood. We find that constitutive loss of Prdm12 causes deficiencies in proliferation during sensory neurogenesis. We also demonstrate that conditional knockout from dorsal root ganglia (DRGs) during embryogenesis causes defects in nociception. In contrast, we find that in adult DRGs, Prdm12 is dispensable for most pain sensation and injury-induced hypersensitivity. Using transcriptomic analysis, we found mostly unique changes in adult Prdm12 knockout DRGs compared to embryonic knockout, and that PRDM12 is likely a transcriptional activator in the adult. Overall, we find that the function of PRDM12 changes over developmental time.

Induction of antiviral Interferon-Stimulated Genes (ISGs) by neuronal STING promotes the resolution of pain

Project description:Nociceptive neurons respond to inflammation, initiating protective reflexes and alerting the host. Here we found that TRPV1 nociceptors express and activate the cytosolic DNA-sensing protein Stimulator of Interferon Genes (STING) in response to inflammation. Neuronal activation of STING promotes signaling through TBK1 and triggers a Type I interferon (IFN-I) response. The absence of STING led to heightened pain responses to chemical irritants or heat. In contrast, mice expressing a nociceptor-specific gain-of-function mutation in STING exhibited an IFN gene signature that reduced nociceptor excitability and inflammatory hyperalgesia. Importantly, several IFN-regulated genes (IRGs) were specific to nociceptor ion channels responsible for controlling neuronal activity and pain threshold. Therefore, STING promotes a pain-resolving IFN-I signaling pathway in nociceptors, thereby preventing sensitization and persistent pain

Nociceptor HDAC4 regulates inflammatory pain

Project description:Transcriptional alterations are characteristic of persistent pain states but the key regulators remain elusive. Using a conditional knockout (cKO) strategy in mice we sought to determine whether loss of the transcriptional co-repressor histone deacetylase four (HDAC4) would have implications for sensory neuron transcription and nociception. HDAC4 was found to be largely dispensable for transcriptional regulation of naïve sensory neurons but was required for transcriptional responses after injury, with Calca and Trpv1 expression consistently downregulated in HDAC4 cKO compared to littermate controls (0.2-0.44 fold). This downregulation corresponded to reduced sensitivity to capsaicin in vitro (76% +/- 4.4% wildtype capsaicin responders vs 56.9% +/- 4.7% cKO responders) and to reduced thermal hypersensitivity in the complete Freund’s adjuvant model of inflammatory pain (1.3-1.4 fold improvement). These data indicate that HDAC4 is a novel inflammatory pain mediator and may be a good therapeutic target, capable of orchestrating the regulation of multiple downstream effectors. Total RNA was extracted from HDAC4 cKO and HDAC4 fl/fl naïve adult lumbar dorsal root ganglia (n=3/group). mRNA expression was compared using Affymetrix Mouse Gene Arrays (Mouse Gene 2.0ST) run on a GeneChip Fluidics Station 450. Chips were scanned on an Affymetrix GeneChip Scanner.

Satellite glial GPR37L1 and its ligand maresin 1 regulate potassium channel signaling and pain homeostasis.

Project description:G protein-coupled receptor 37-like 1 (GPR37L1) is an orphan GPCR, and its function remains largely unknown. Here we report that Gpr37l1 and GPR37L1 are among the most highly expressed GPCR transcripts in mouse and human dorsal root ganglia (DRGs) and are selectively expressed in satellite glial cells (SGCs). Peripheral neuropathy following PTX-induced pain resulted in a downregulation of GPR37L1 plasma membrane expression in DRGs. Transgenic mice with Gpr37l1 deficiency exhibited impaired resolution of neuropathic pain symptoms following PTX-induced pain, whereas overexpression of Gpr37l1 in mouse DRGs reversed pain. GPR37L1 regulates the surface expression and function of these potassium channels. Thus, GPR37L1 in SGCs offers a new target for neuropathy protection and pain control.

Global transcriptome analysis reveals differences between embryonic and adult dorsal root ganglion axonal mRNAs that are implicated in axonal growth and pain

Project description:Local protein synthesis in sensory neuron axons is necessary for axonal regeneration with the efficiency of regeneration decreasing with age. Because the full repertoire of transcripts in embryonic and adult rat sensory axons is unknown we asked how the pool of mRNAs dynamically changes during ageing. We isolated mRNA from pure axons and growth cones devoid of non-neuronal or cell body contamination. Genome-wide microarray analysis reveals that a previously unappreciated number of transcripts are localised in sensory axons and that this repertoire changes during development toward adulthood. Embryonic sensory axons are enriched in transcripts encoding cytoskeletal-related proteins with a role in axonal outgrowth. Surprisingly, adult axons are highly enriched in mRNAs encoding immune molecules with a role in nociception. To validate our experimental approach we show that Tubulin-beta3 mRNA is present only in embryonic axons where it is locally synthesised. In summary, we show that the population of axonal mRNAs dynamically changes during development, which may partly contribute to the intrinsic capacity of axons at different ages to regenerate after injury and to modulate pain. Pure axonal RNA were extracted from the axons of embryonic and adult dorsal root ganglion neurons, each with 5 biological replicates. The axonal transcriptomes were analysed using Affymetrix Rat Genome 230 2.0 Arrays.

NIS-lncRNA promotes neuropathic pain by increasing Ccl2 expression

Project description:Maladaptive changes of nerve injury–associated genes in dorsal root ganglia (DRGs) are critical for neuropathic pain genesis. Emerging evidence supports the role of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in regulating gene transcription. Here we identified a conserved lncRNA, named nerve injury–specific lncRNA (NIS-lncRNA) for its upregulation in injured DRGs exclusively in response to nerve injury. This upregulation was triggered by nerve injury–induced increase in DRG ELF1, a transcription factor that bound to the NIS-lncRNA promoter. Blocking this upregulation attenuated nerve injury–induced CCL2 increase in injured DRGs and nociceptive hypersensitivity during the development and maintenance periods of neuropathic pain. Mimicking NIS-lncRNA upregulation elevated CCL2 expression, increased CCL2-mediated excitability in DRG neurons, and produced neuropathic pain symptoms. Mechanistically, NIS-lncRNA recruited more binding of the RNA-interacting protein FUS to the Ccl2 promoter and augmented Ccl2 transcription in injured DRGs. Thus, NIS-lncRNA participates in neuropathic pain likely by promoting FUS-triggered DRG Ccl2 expression and may be a potential target in neuropathic pain management.

RNA-SEQ analysis of postnatal Ret-positive (EGFP-labeled) nociceptive (NaV1.8 population) dorsal root ganglia L345 or L6S1 neurons.

Project description:The goal of this set is to build expression data using FACS isolated Ret-positive cells (postnatal) harvested from a RetFloxedEGFP reporter mouse crossed with NaV1.8Cre mice to enrich for Ret nociceptor population. To enrich for bladder projecting neurons L6S1 DRGs were FACS isolated. L3,4, 5 lumbar levels were also FACS isolated to aid in differential expression of Ret-nociceptor population from L6S1 and L345 spinal DRG levels. The series further includes these populations from males and females to uncover sex based differences.

Transcription profiling of rat Postnatal developmental changes in Sprague-Dawley animals in the model of neuropathic pain - spare nerve injury

Project description:Neuropathic pain is an apparently spontaneous experience triggered by abnormal physiology of the peripheral or central nervous system, which evolves with time. Neuropathic pain arising from peripheral nerve injury is characterized by a combination of spontaneous pain, hyperalgesia and allodynia. There is no evidence of this type of pain in human infants or rat pups; brachial plexus avulsion, which causes intense neuropathic pain in adults, is not painful when the injury is sustained at birth. Since infants are capable of nociception from before birth and display both acute and chronic inflammatory pain behaviour from an early neonatal age, it appears that the mechanisms underlying neuropathic pain are differentially regulated over a prolonged postnatal period. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression underlying the differences in nerve injury between along the postnatal development and identified distinct classes of regulated genes during the injury Experiment Overall Design: We have performed a microarray analysis of the rat L4/L5 dorsal root ganglia, 7 days post spared nerve injury, a model of neuropathic pain. Genes that are regulated in adult rats displaying neuropathic behaviour were compared to those regulated in young rats (10 days old) that did not show the same neuropathic behaviour.

Major differences in transcriptional alterations in dorsal root ganglia between spinal cord injury and peripheral neuropathic pain models

Project description:Chronic, often intractable pain is caused by neuropathic conditions such as peripheral nerve injury (PNI) and spinal cord injury (SCI). These conditions are associated with alterations in gene and protein expression correlated with functional changes in somatosensory neurons having cell bodies in dorsal root ganglia (DRGs). Most studies of DRG transcriptional alterations have utilized PNI models where axotomy-induced changes important for regeneration may overshadow changes that drive neuropathic pain. Both PNI and SCI produce DRG neuron hyperexcitability linked to pain, but contusive SCI produces little peripheral axotomy or peripheral nerve inflammation. Thus, comparison of transcriptional signatures of DRGs across PNI and SCI models may highlight pain-associated transcriptional alterations that don’t depend on peripheral axotomy and associated effects such as peripheral Wallerian degeneration. Data from our rat thoracic SCI experiments were combined with meta-analysis of whole-DRG RNA-seq datasets from prominent rat PNI models. Striking differences were found between transcriptional responses to PNI and SCI, especially in regeneration-associated genes and long noncoding RNAs. Many transcriptomic changes after SCI were also found after corresponding sham surgery, indicating they were caused by injury to surrounding tissue rather than to the spinal cord itself. Another unexpected finding was of few transcriptomic similarities between any rat neuropathic pain model and the only reported transcriptional analysis of human DRGs linked to neuropathic pain. These findings show that DRGs exhibit complex transcriptional responses to central and peripheral neural and tissue injury. Although few genes in DRG cells show similar changes in gene expression across all these painful conditions, the few widely shared transcriptional alterations promise novel insights into fundamental mechanisms within DRGs that can drive neuropathic pain.
