Pattern separation memory requires Cerebellin 4-Neogenin 1 signaling at dentate gyrus synapses

ABSTRACT: The ability to avoid confusion between similar episodic memories enables organismal survival and fitness. This evolutionarily conserved differentiation process of memories as distinct representations is known as pattern separation. A central role for the entorhinal cortex->dentate gyrus (EC->DG) circuit in pattern separation is well established, but the molecular mechanisms that enable this circuit to mediate pattern separation memory is not known. Here we show the involvement in murine pattern separation memory of a unique transsynaptic protein complex formed by Cerebellin-4, Neogenin-1, and neurexins that is known to be selectively required for long-term plasticity in the EC->DG circuit. In vivo deletion of either presynaptic Cerebellin-4 in the entorhinal cortex or of postsynaptic Neogenin-1 in the dentate gyrus impairs acquisition of pattern separation memory. Thus, we describe a specific memory function for a defined molecular complex at an identified synapse, providing direct support for the hypothesis that synaptic plasticity contributes to the encoding of memory.

Molecular profiles of cognitive aging

Project description:Gene expression was measured from the dentate gyrus and entorhinal cortex harvested from human postmortem samples. We harvested the dentate gyrus DG from healthy human brains ranging from 33 to 88 years of age. Additionally, from each brain we harvested the entorhinal cortex (EC) as a within-brain control. Using Affymetrix microarray chips we generated gene-expression profiles of each individual tissue samples. DG expression levels were first normalized against the EC, and the normalized DG transcripts were then correlated against age.

Engram-specific transcriptome profiling of contextual memory consolidation

Project description:Sparse populations of neurons in the dentate gyrus (DG) of the hippocampus are causally implicated in the encoding of contextual fear memories. However, engram-specific molecular mechanisms underlying memory consolidation remain largely unknown. Here we perform unbiased RNA sequencing of DG engram neurons 24h after contextual fear conditioning to identify transcriptome changes specific to memory consolidation. DG engram neurons exhibit a highly distinct pattern of gene expression, in which CREB-dependent transcription features prominently (P=6.2x10-13), including Atf3 (P=2.4x10-41), Penk (P=1.3x10-15), and Kcnq3 (P=3.1x10-12). Moreover, we validate the functional relevance of the RNAseq findings by establishing the causal requirement of intact CREB function specifically within the DG engram during memory consolidation, and identify a novel group of CREB target genes involved in the encoding of long-term memory.

Septo-dentate gyrus cholinergic circuits modulate function and morphogenesis of adult neural stem cells through granule cells in mice

Project description:Dentate gyrus (DG) is a critical structure for spatial memory and adult neurogenesis, and both processes are dynamically regulated by neural circuit activity. It remains unknown how neural circuits orchestrate the molecular landscape of the highly heterogeneous DG to regulate these distinct functions. Here we first report that activation of a cholinergic circuit from Diagonal Band of Broca to DG promotes both neural stem cell (NSC) activation and spatial memory. Furthermore, using single-nucleus RNA-sequencing of DG, we report broad transcriptomic changes across multiple types of mature and adult-born cells in response to cholinergic circuit activation. Notably, various neuronal populations exhibit abundant molecular changes that support synaptic functions crucial for spatial memory; while NSCs exhibit molecular changes that support their structural development and neurogenic proliferation. Interestingly, our electrophysiology and NicheNet analyses reveal granule cells, endothelial cells, and astrocytes as potential intermediaries for cholinergic activity-dependent NSC regulation. Our findings provide cell-type specific molecular mechanisms underlying cholinergic circuit activity-dependent regulation of distinct DG functions.

MicroRNA-124 and -137 cooperativity controls caspase-3 activity through BCL2L13 in hippocampal neural stem cells. [RNA expression]

Project description:Temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) can develop from alterations in hippocampal structure and circuit characteristics, and can be modeled in mice by administration of kainic acid (KA). Adult neurogenesis in the dentate gyrus (DG) contributes to hippocampal functions and has been reported to contribute to the development of TLE. Some of the phenotypical changes include neural stem and precursor cells (NPSC) apoptosis, shortly after their birth, before they produce hippocampal neurons. Here we explored these early phenotypical changes in the DG 3 days after systemic KA administration to mice. Our specific aim was to understand the molecular mechanisms underlying altered apoptosis levels in NSPC following KA-induced status epilepticus (KA-SE). Accordingly, we chose a multi-omics experimental setup and analyzed DG tissue samples using proteomics, transcriptomics and microRNA profiling techniques. We here present a description of how these date were obtained and provide them to others for further analysis and validation. This may help to further identify and characterize molecular mechanisms involved in the alterations induced shortly after KA-SE in the mouse DG. Total RNA obtained from dentate gyrus 72h after mice were subjected to repeated low dose kainic acid induced status epilepticus or saline i.p. injections

Microglia RNA-seq of mus musculus:adult male dorsal hippocampus

Project description:Engrams are considered to be substrates for memory storage, and the functional dysregulation of the engrams leads to cognition impairment.However, the cellular basis for these maladaptive changes lead to the forgetting of memories remains unclear. Here we found that the expression of autophagy protein 7 (Atg7) mRNA was dramatically upregulated in aged DG engrams, and led to the forgetting of contextual fear memory and the activation of surrounding microglia.To determine mechanism by which autophagy in DG engrams activates the surrounding microglia, mice were co-injected AAV-RAM-Cre either with AAV-Dio-Atg7-Flag or AAV-Dio- EYFP in dorsal dentate gyrus to overexpress ATG7 in the DG memory engrams. Microglia were separated using magnetic-activated cell sorting and subjected to RNA-Seq in dorsal hippocampus .Bioinformatics analysis shown overexpression of Atg7 in dorsal DG memory engrams caused an increase in the expression of Tlr2 in the surrounding microglia.Depletion of Toll-like receptor 2/4 (TLR2/4) in DG microglia prohibited excessive microglial activation and synapse elimination induced by the overexpression of ATG7 in DG engrams, and thus prevented forgetting. Furthermore, the expression of Rac1, a Rho-GTPases which regulates active forgetting in both fly and mice, was upregulated in aged engrams. Optogentic activation of Rac1 in DG engrams promoted the autophagy of the engrams, the activation of microglia, and the forgetting of fear memory. Invention of the Atg7 expression and microglia activation attenuated forgetting induced by activation of Rac1 in DG engrams. Together, our findings revealed autophagy-dependent synapse elimination of DG engrams by microglia as a novel forgetting mechanism.

Expression data in the mouse brain following the glucocorticoid receptor overexpression in the forebrain (GRov) during different periods in development

Project description:The glucocorticoid receptor overexpression in early life is sufficient to alter gene expression patterns for the rest of the animal's life. Hippocampal dentate gyrus (DG) are more responsive than the nucleus accumbens (NAcc) following the glucocorticoid receptor overexpression in the forebrain. Laser capture microdissection was performed. Microdissected areas from the dentate gyrus or nucleus accumbens were collected from serial sections for each animal.

Hippocampal Subregion Transcriptomic Profiles Associated with Age-Related Changes in Spatial Pattern Separation

Project description:Previous studies of age-related transcriptional changes indicate that cognitive impairments are associated with differentially expressed genes DEGs linked to defined neural systems; however, studies that examine multiple regions of the hippocampus fail to find major links between behavior and transcription in the dentate gyrus DG. The DG is implicated in pattern separation PS and exhibits multiple age-related changes that may affect PS performance. We hypothesize that an age-related decline in PS performance is associated with distinct changes in transcriptional profile, most strongly within the DG compared to other hippocampal subregions. We used a water maze beacon discrimination task to characterize PS in young 5 mo and middle-age 12 mo male F344 rats, followed by a spatial reference memory test. Middle-age rats showed consistent deficits in discriminating two identical beacons compared to young. Reference memory was not different between these two age groups. Interestingly, with increasing spatial overlap between the cues, older animals appeared to compensate for impaired PS performance though greater reliance on spatial reference memory. mRNA sequencing of hippocampal subregions DG, CA1, and CA3 indicated that the DG of middle-age rats expressed more genes correlated with PS performance. In contrast, reliance on a spatial reference memory was associated with differential expression of genes in regions CA1 and CA3. These results indicate that the beacon task is sensitive to PS impairment as early as middle-age, and distinct gene profiles are observed in neural circuits that underlie different strategies used to solve the task.
