Cholesterol metabolism and neuroinflammatory changes in a non-human primate model of neuropathic pain

ABSTRACT: Neuropathic pain remains one of the major neurological conditions with high unmet medical needs. Poor translation from preclinical studies using rodent models to clinical trials is one of the major obstacles to the development of new pharmacological medications to treat neuropathic pain. The aims of this study were to establish a behavioral test to evaluate spontaneous pain in a spinal nerve ligation (SNL) model using cynomolgus monkey as a non-human primate (NHP) model, and to unravel changes in the transcriptomic profile in dorsal spinal cord in this model. After right unilateral L7 SNL surgery in cynomolgus monkeys, the percentage of weight-bearing on ipsilateral hindlimb significantly decreased. Transcriptomic analysis of RNA-seq results from the dorsal part of the spinal cord identified pathways matching those in equivalent rodent models, along with NHP-specific pathways, suggesting that neuroinflammation and cholesterol transportation/metabolism were the main pathways altered in this NHP model. Additionally, several upregulated genes observed here were previously reported uniquely in clinical studies, but not in rodent models. This study provides a potentially useful pharmacological model that can aid the development of pain relief therapies by inducing a robust behavioral phenotype and changes in gene expression resembling those in patients.

mRNA expression profiling in the spinal nerve ligation model of neuropathic pain in rats

Project description:Expression profiling of L4 and L5 Dorsal Root Ganglion (DRG) in the spinal nerve ligation model of neuropathic pain. The goal of the study was to identify genes involved in neuropathic pain This series of samples comprises of contralateral and ipsilateral L4 and L5 DRG tissue collected 4 weeks after rats underwent a L5 spinal nerve ligation (SNL) or a sham operation with no L5 spinal nerve ligation. This defines 8 groups (i) contralateral L4 DRG from the sham cohort (n=5), (ii) ipsilateral L4 DRG from sham cohort (n=5), (iii) contralateral L4 DRG from SNL cohort (n=5), (iv) ipsilateral L4 DRG from the SNL chort (n=5), (v) contralateral L5 DRG from the sham cohort (n=5), (vi) ipsilateral L5 DRG from sham cohort (n=5), (vii) contralateral L5 DRG from SNL cohort (n=5), (viii) ipsilateral L5 DRG from the SNL cohort (n=5)

A novel functional role for the serine protease inhibitor SerpinA3N and its substrate leukocyte elastase in neuropathic pain

Project description:Two out-bred rat selection lines were separated to produce different hypersensitivity phenotypes following nerve injury. These lines were termed High Pain and Low Pain (HP or LP). Each sub-strain was either subject to a Sham surgery or a Spinal Nerve Ligation (SNL) surgery to the L4 and L5 spinal nerves. Three days following surgery L4/L5 Dorsal Root Ganglia (DRG) were dissected from these animals. For the rat line separation protocol see: Devor M, Raber P (1990) Heritability of symptoms in an experimental model of neuropathic pain. Pain 42:51-67. 12 Hybridizations, 3 per condition; Sham HP DRG; 3 day SNL HP DRG; Sham LP DRG; 3 day SNL LP DRG.

Gene expression signatures for lumber 5 dorsal horn of spinal cord in spinal nerve ligation (SNL) mice with WTD intervention

Project description:For development of gene expression of L5 spinal tissue in SNL mice, L5 spinal nerve was first tightly ligated to construct the neuropathic pain model, and sham-operated group as a control. After chronic administrations of vehicle (distilled water, 10 mg/kg) or WTD (12.60 g/kg, p.o.), L5 spinal cord of dorsal horn were collected, and then, Agilent Whole Mouse Genome Microarray 4×44K expression profiling were employed as a discovery platform to identify genes with the potential to provide basis for the clinical application of WTD for neuropathic pain. A 579-gene consensus signature was identified that distinguished between sham and SNL samples, and a 456-gene consensus signature was identified that distinguished between WTD and SNL samples. Expression of 12 genes (Crk1, Fgf13, Fgfr1, Crk1, Adrbk1, Erbb3, Gnas, Vegfa, Crk1, Erbb3, Drd2, Gnas) were identified as the efficacy of differentially expressed genes.

DNA methylation reprogramming after spinal nerve injury [RRBS]

Project description:Purpose: Nerve injury-induced hyperactivity of primary sensory neurons in the dorsal root ganglion (DRG) contributes critically to chronic pain development, but its underlying mechanisms remain incompletely understood. Chronic neuropathic pain has a clear epigenetic component, however, most studies so far have focused on histone modifications. We determined changes of DNA methylation in the rat DRG, spinal cord, and prefrontal cortex after spinal nerve ligation (SNL).

Spinal astrocytic MeCP2 regulates Kir4.1 for the maintenance of chronic hyperalgesia in neuropathic pain

Project description:Previous studies have suggested that astrocyte activation in the spinal dorsal horn may play an important role in the development of chronic neuropathic pain; but the mechanisms involved in astrocyte activation and their modulatory effects remain unknown. The inward rectifying potassium channel protein 4.1 (Kir4.1) is the most important background K+ channel in astrocytes. However, how Kir4.1 is regulated and contributes to behavioral hyperalgesia in chronic pain is unknown. In this study, single-cell RNA sequencing analysis indicated that the expression of Kir4.1 and Methyl-CpG-binding protein 2 (MeCP2) were both decreased in spinal astrocytes after chronic constriction injury (CCI) in a mouse model. Conditional knockout of the Kir4.1 channel in spinal astrocytes led to hyperalgesia; and overexpression of the Kir4.1 channel in spinal cord relieved CCI-induced hyperalgesia. Expression of spinal Kir4.1 after CCI was regulated by MeCP2. Electrophysiological recording in spinal slices showed that knockdown of Kir4.1 significantly regulated the excitability of astrocytes and then functionally changed the firing patterns of neurons in dorsal spinal cord. Therefore, targeting spinal Kir4.1 maybe an underlying treatment for hyperalgesia in chronic neuropathic pain.

Next generation sequencing revealed disease-specific microglia classes relying on distinct transcriptomes

Project description:Microglia in the spinal dorsal horn have been implicated in the pathogenesis of neuropathic pain following peripheral nerve injury. We have revently found that CD11c-expressing spinal microglia appear after the development of behavioral pain hypersensitivity following nerve injury and are essential for recovery from neuropathic pain. In order to better understand the gene expression profiles of CD11c-expressing microglia, we performed quantitative bulk RNA sequencing of microglia isolated from mice expressing Venus fluorescent protein under the control of CD11c promoter. We found that CD11c-expressing microglia show distinct gene expression profile compared to CD11c-negative microglia following nerve injury.
