Cross-Species Single-cell Comparative Analysis of Amygdala

Project description:The amygdala or amygdala-like structure in the brain are found in all vertebrates, and plays a critical role for emotional processing. But the cellular architecture of amygdala and how they evolved are still elusive. Here, we generated single-nucleus RNA-sequencing data for more than 200,000 cells in human, macaque, mouse and chicken amygdala. Abundant neuronal cell types derived from different subnuclei of amygdala were identified in all datasets. Cross-species analyses revealed GABAergic neurons and GABAergic neuron-enriched subnuclei of amygdala were well-conserved in cellular composition and marker gene expression, whereas glutamatergic neuron-enriched subnuclei were relatively divergent. Furthermore, we discovered that LAMP5+ interneurons were much more numerous in primates, while DRD2+ GABAergic neurons, LAMP5+ and SATB2+ glutamatergic neurons were predominant in the human central amygdalar nucleus (CEA) and basolateral amygdala complex (BLA), respectively. In addition, we also identified GABAergic neuron-enriched subnuclei of amygdala in the chicken. Altogether, our study highlight extremely cell-type diversity in the amygdala across species and their species-specifc adaptations.

Single cell RNA-sequencing in the mouse central amygdala (CEA)

Project description:The central amygdala (CEA) is a brain region that consists of primarily GABAergic neurons. It has been widely investigated for its role in many innate and adaptive behaviors, such as appetitive and defensive behaviors. Despite the complex functions of CEA, the molecular diversity of CEA neurons has not been systemically examined. Here, we performed single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-Seq) in the CEA to classify the molecularly defined neuron types in this region.

Gene expression of central amygdala of mice

Project description:Purpose: The goals of this study are to screen out the changes of gene expression profile in response to high fat diet, an mRNA-seq was performed in central amygdala Methods: 6-week-old male wild-type mice were fed with high fat diet (HFD, containing 45% fat) or normal chow diet (ND) for 5 months. And then their central amygdala tissues were removed and total RNA was extracted to perform RNA sequencing. Results:The KEGG pathway analysis showed that genes related to neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction and calcium signaling pathway were dramatically upregulated after HFD Conclusions: Our study represents the first detailed analysis of central amygdalar transcriptomes of mice subjected to high fat diet, with biologic replicates, generated by RNA-seq technology. Our results show genes related to neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction and calcium signaling pathway were dramatically upregulated after high fat diet feeding,which hint at the importance of ion channel in central amygdala after high fat feeding.

A central extended amygdala circuit that modulates anxiety

Project description:Both the amygdala and the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BNST) have been implicated in maladaptive anxiety characteristic of anxiety disorders. However, the underlying circuit and cellular mechanisms have remained elusive. Here we show that mice with Erbb4 gene deficiency in somatostatin-expressing (SOM+) neurons exhibit heightened anxiety as measured in the elevated plus maze test and the open field test, two assays commonly used to assess anxiety-related behaviors in rodents. Using a combination of electrophysiological, molecular, genetic and pharmacological techniques we demonstrate that the abnormal anxiety in the mutant mice is caused by enhanced excitatory synaptic inputs onto SOM+ neurons in the central amygdala (CeA), and the resulting reduction in inhibition onto downstream SOM+ neurons in the BNST. Notably, our results indicate that an increase in dynorphin signaling in SOM+ CeA neurons mediates the paradoxical reduction in inhibition onto SOM+ BNST neurons, and that the consequent enhanced activity of SOM+ BNST neurons is both necessary for and sufficient to drive the elevated anxiety. Finally, we show that the elevated anxiety and the associated synaptic dysfunctions and increased dynorphin signaling in the CeA-BNST circuit of the Erbb4 mutant mice can be recapitulated by stress in wild-type mice. Together, our results unravel previously unknown circuit and cellular processes in the central extended amygdala that can cause maladaptive anxiety.
