Project description:Neuroimmune interaction influences essential CNS processes. Hanuscheck et al. report expression of interleukin-4 receptor alpha at presynaptic terminals in mouse and human brain. Modulation of neuronal IL-R signaling alters the neuronal transcriptome, impacts synaptic transmission and causes anxiety-related behavior.

Project description:The roles of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in synaptic transmission and neuronal development are emerging. Here we applied an integrated bioinformatic/biological screening strategy to identify lncRNAs that regulate synaptic vesicle release. We identified neuroLNC, a conserved neuron-specific nuclear lncRNA that modulates synaptic vesicle release, presynaptic calcium influx, neurite elongation and neuronal migration. In neurons neuroLNC interacts with a neurodegeneration-associated protein and tunes a set of presynaptic transcripts implicated in neurotransmitter release.

Project description:Injury of descending motor tracts remodels cortical circuitry and leads to enhanced neuronal excitability, thus influencing recovery following injury. The neuron-specific contributions remain unclear due to the complex cellular composition and connectivity of the CNS. We developed a microfluidics-based in vitro model system to examine intrinsic synaptic remodeling following axon damage. We found that distal axotomy of cultured rat pyramidal neurons caused dendritic spine loss at synapses onto the injured neurons followed by a persistent retrograde enhancement in presynaptic excitability over days. These in vitro results mirrored hyper-activity of directly injured corticospinal neurons in hindlimb motor cortex layer Vb following spinal cord contusion. In vitro axotomy-induced hyper-excitability coincided with elimination of inhibitory presynaptic terminals, including those formed onto dendritic spines. We identified netrin-1 as downregulated following axotomy and exogenous netrin-1 applied 2 days after injury normalized spine density, presynaptic excitability, and the fraction of inhibitory inputs onto injured neurons. These findings demonstrate a novel model system for studying the response of pyramidal circuitry to axotomy and provide new insights of neuron-specific mechanisms that contribute to synaptic remodeling.

Project description:Differentiated cells acquire unique structural and functional traits through coordinated expression of lineage-specific genes. An extensive battery of genes encoding components of the synaptic transmission machinery and specialized cytoskeletal proteins is activated during neurogenesis, but the underlying regulation is not well understood. Here we show that genes encoding critical presynaptic proteins are transcribed at a detectable level in both neurons and non-neuronal cells. However, in non-neuronal cells, the splicing of 3M-bM-^@M-^Y-terminal introns within these genes is repressed by polypyrimidine tract-binding protein (Ptbp1). This inhibits the export of incompletely spliced mRNAs to the cytoplasm and triggers their nuclear degradation. Clearance of these intron-containing transcripts occurs independently of the nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) pathway but requires components of the nuclear RNA surveillance machinery including the nuclear pore-associated protein Tpr and components of the exosome complex. When Ptbp1 expression decreases during neuronal differentiation, the regulated introns are spliced out thus allowing the accumulation of translation-competent mRNAs in the cytoplasm. We propose that this mechanism counters ectopic and precocious expression of functionally linked neuron-specific genes and ensures their coherent activation in the appropriate developmental context.

Project description:We performed brain bulk RNA-seq aiming to study how microglia TREM2-WT or TREM2-R47H expression affect the overall brain transcriptomic profiles. Using WGCNA gene network analysis, we found the presynaptic transmission pathway was dysregulated after TREM2-R47H expression, not TREM2-WT. This finding was consistent with the impaired presynaptic transmission detected by electrophysiological recording in TREM2-R47H expressing mice. In addition, dysregulated circadian pathways were also identified in TREM2-R47H mice, not in TREM2-WT mice. Altogether, our bulk RNA-seq results provide additional evidence at transcriptomics level that TREM2-R47H expression in microglia affects neuronal functions and brain networks.

Project description:Synapses are fundamental organizers of precise signal propagation between neurons. Maintaining synapse assemblies require interactions between pre- and post- synaptic proteins, notably cell adhesion molecules (CAMs). It has been proposed that the function of Neuroligins (Nlgn1 - 4), postsynaptic CAMs, relies on the formation of trans-synaptic complexes with Neurexins (Nrxs), presynaptic CAMs. Nlgn3 is a unique Nlgn isoform that localizes at both excitatory and inhibitory synapses. However, Nlgn3 function mediated through Nrx interaction is mostly unknown. Here, we find for the first time that Nlgn3 localizes at postsynaptic sites apposing vesicular glutamate transporter 3 (VGT3)-expressing inhibitory terminals. Overexpression and knockdown approaches indicate that Nlgn3 regulates VGT3-positive inhibitory interneuron-mediated synaptic transmission. Fluorescent in situ hybridization and single-cell RNA sequencing studies revealed that αNrxn1 and βNrxn3 are VGT3 interneuron-specific Nrxn isoforms and the expression levels of Nrxn splice isoforms are highly diverse in VGT3 interneurons, respectively. Most importantly, postsynaptic Nlgn3 requires presynaptic αNrx1+AS4 expressed in VGT3-positive interneurons to regulate inhibitory synaptic transmission. Our results strongly suggest that specific Nlgn-Nrx interaction generate distinct functional properties at synapses.

Project description:This project will help us to have a more accurate and useful explanation at molecular level, of the damage caused by HIV when it infects the central nervous sythem (CNS) in Humans. CNS dysfunction is an important cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with human immunodeficiency virus-I (HIV-1) infection and the acquired immunodeficiency virus syndrome (AIDS). Minor cognitive/motor dysfunction (MCMD) and HIV-1-associated dementia (HAD) develop in the absence of opportunistic infections and lymphoma, cerebrovascular disease and metabolic disorders. Patients with HAD may or may not present an associated HIV encephalitis with viral replication limited to cells of monocyte origin. The inflammatory infiltrates of HIVE include activated microglia and perivascular and parenchymal monocytes, multinucleated giant cells and lymphocytes. In addition, HIVE may be accompanied by significant loss of neurons, presynaptic terminals and abnormal dendrites. To determine if altered expression of neuronal growth factor, chemokine and cell death genes identified possible mechanisms of brain injury in AIDS patients with and without HIVE; Changes of gene expression occurring in brain of AIDS patients with and without HIVE, induce development of brain atrophy, mild gliosis, enhanced vascular permeability, along with alterations in neuronal HIV-1 chemokine coreceptors. In the cases of HIVE more remarkable gene expression changes result in significant loss of neurons, presynaptic terminals and abnormal dendrites. All these changes can be evaluated by microarray gene expression analysis and validated by Q-RT-PCR; The procedure includes 10 steps: 1-Frontal Cortex dissection from fresh frozen autopsy human brain samples (fragments of 0.8-1 cm3 are used) 2-totalRNA extraction using RNeasy Maxi Kit and following hand book protocol; Quiagen Inc., 3-RNA quantity determination using the NanoDrop ND-1000 UV-Vis Spectrophotometer: Nanodrop-Technologies 4-RNA quality analyzed by ribosomal fractions 28s/18s ratio, using by Agilent RNA 6000 Assay Microchips: Agilent Technologies 5-mRNA suitability by RT-PCR test for housekeeping genes and genes of interest. 6-mRNA amplification and labeling in two steps: a-Generation of T7-conatining double stranded cDNA using T7-Poly-T Strategy (Invitrogen) b-mRNA amplification and labeling (aRNA) by in vitro transcription using T7 RNA polymerase, T7-cDNA as template and biotin-labeled ribonucleotides 7-Biotin-labeled aRNA quantity assess, as in step 3 8-Biotin-labeled aRNA determination by amplified RNA electropherogram.
