DREAM regulates gene expression and Ca2+ mobilization in sperm cells

ABSTRACT: Calcium influx is a critical event in mammalian fertilization, but the molecular mechanisms that govern the calcium dynamics in spermatozoa in response to physiological stimuli are still poorly understood. In the present work we analyze the role of the Ca2+-dependent transcriptional repressor DREAM (downstream regulatory element antagonist modulator) in spermatozoa using a transgenic mouse line that express a dominant constitutively active DREAM mutant. Genome-wide expression analysis of transgenic mice showed that DREAM modulates gene expression throughout the maturation process of sperm from spermatogonia to mature spermatozoa.

DREAM in pain mechanisms in the trigeminal ganglia

Project description:Expression of DREAM in dorsal root ganglia and spinal cord is related to endogenous control mechanisms of acute and chronic pain. In primary sensory trigeminal neurons high levels of endogenous DREAM protein are preferentially localized in the nucleus, suggesting a major transcriptional role. Here, we show that DREAM participates in the control of trigeminal pain perception through the regulation of prodynorphin and BDNF. Furthermore, genome-wide analysis of trigeminal neurons in daDREAM transgenic mice revealed that cathepsin L (CTSL) and the monoglyceride lipase (MGLL) are new DREAM downstream targets and have a role in the regulation of trigeminal nociception.

DREAM silencing is part of a neuroprotective mechanism in Huntington's disease

Project description:Deregulated intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis underlies synaptic dysfunction and is a common feature in neurodegenerative processes, including Huntington's disease (HD). DREAM/calsenilin/KChIP-3 is a multifunctional Ca2+ binding protein that controls the expression level and/or the activity of several proteins related to Ca2+ homeostasis, neuronal excitability and neuronal survival. We found that expression of endogenous DREAM (DRE antagonist modulator) is reduced in the striatum of R6 mice, in STHdh-Q111/111 knock in striatal neurons and in HD patients. DREAM down regulation in R6 striatum occurs early after birth, well before the onset of motor coordination impairment, and could be part of an endogenous mechanism of neuroprotection, since i) R6/2 mice hemizygous for the DREAM gene (R6/2xDREAM+/-) showed delayed onset of locomotor impairment and prolonged lifespan, ii) motor impairment after chronic administration of 3-NPA was reduced in DREAM knockout mice and enhanced in daDREAM transgenic mice and, iii) lentiviral-mediated DREAM expression in STHdh-Q111/111 knock in cells sensitizes them to oxidative stress. Transcriptomic analysis showed that changes in gene expression in R6/2 striatum were notably reduced in R6/2xDREAM+/- striatum. Chronic administration of repaglinide, a molecule able to bind to DREAM in vitro and to accelerate its clearance in vivo, delayed the onset of motor dysfunction, reduced striatal loss and prolonged the lifespan in R6/2 mice. Furthermore, exposure to repaglinide protected STHdh-Q111/111 knock in striatal neurons sensitized to oxidative stress by lentiviral-mediated DREAM overexpression. Thus, genetic and pharmacological evidences disclose a role for DREAM silencing in early neuroprotective mechanisms in HD.

Transcriptomic analysis of the cerebellum of daDREAM mice

Project description:DREAM (downstream regulatory element antagonist modulator) is a Ca2+-binding protein that binds DNA and represses transcription in a Ca2+-dependent manner. Previous studies have shown a role for DREAM in cerebellar function regulating the expression of the sodium/calcium exchanger3 (NCX3) in cerebellar granules to control Ca2+ homeostasis and survival of these neurons. To achieve a more global view of the genes regulated by DREAM in the cerebellum, we performed a genome-wide analysis in transgenic cerebellum expressing a Ca2+-insensitive/CREB-independent dominant active mutant DREAM (daDREAM). Our results indicate that DREAM is a major transcription factor in the cerebellum that regulates genes important for cerebellar development. We used Affymetrix microarrays (GeneChip Mouse Genome 430 2.0) to compare global gene expression in wild type (WT) versus transgenic cerebellum cells. For ech type of sample three hybridizations were carried-out (independent biological replicates).

The DREAM complex functions as conserved master regulator of somatic DNA repair capacities

Project description:Mutations in the DREAM complex induce germline-like gene expression patterns including the increase of multiple mechanisms of DNA repair in the soma of Caenorhabditis elegans. This confers mutants of the DREAM complex resistance to a wide range of DNA damage types during development and aging.

Expression in wild type and TgDREAM mouse B cells unstimulated or 2 days after LPS+IL4 stimulation

Project description:DREAM/KChIP-3 is a calcium-dependent transcriptional repressor highly expressed in immune cells. Transgenic mice expressing a dominant active DREAM mutant show reduced serum immunoglobulin levels. In vitro assays show that reduced immunoglobulin secretion is an intrinsic defect of transgenic B cells that occurs without impairment in plasma cell differentiation but with an accelerated entry in cell division and an increase in class switch recombination. B cells from DREAM knockout mice did not show any phenotype, due to compensation by endogenous KChIP-2. Expression arrays revealed modified expression of Edem1 and Derlin3, two proteins related to the ER-associated degradation pathway and of Klf9, a cell-cycle regulator. Our results disclose a function of DREAM and KChIP-2 in Ig subclass production in B lymphocytes. We used Affymetrix microarrays (GeneChip Mouse Genome 430 2.0) to compare global gene expression in wild type (WT) versus transgenic B cells (Tg), unstimulated and 2 days after LPS + IL4 stimulation. For ech type of sample three hybridizations were carried-out (independent biological replicates).

Fight or flight cardiac responses require augmentation of Ca2+ influx via Rad phosphorylation [RNAseq]

Project description:One of the most recognizable physiological phenomena is the adrenergic-induced fight-or-flight increase in heart rate and cardiac contraction. For the β-adenergic agonist-induced enhancement of calcium influx and transients, and contractility in the heart, we identify the dual requirement of a subpopulation of Rad-bound calcium channels under basal conditions and PKA phosphorylation of Rad. In mice expressing a non-phosphorylatable Rad mutant, basal cardiac contractility is reduced and adrenergic-augmentation of the calcium current and contractility are disabled. Expression of mutant calcium channel β-subunits that cannot bind the mutant Rad restored contractility, revealing a highly specific therapeutic approach to mimic the contractility imparted by adrenergic agonists. Our findings place Rad and its modulation of calcium channels at the nexus of adrenergic modulation of cardiac responses.

Sperm heterogeneity and DNMT/TET activities do not account for sperm DNA methylation changes observed in the epididymis

Project description:Following their production in the testis, spermatozoa enter the epididymis to gain their motility and fertilizing abilities. This post-testicular maturation coincides with sperm epigenetic profile changes that influence the progeny outcome. While recent studies underscored the dynamics of small non-coding RNAs in the maturing spermatozoa, little is known regarding sperm methylation changes and their impact at the post-fertilization level. To map out the sperm methylome dynamics, we purified spermatozoa by FACS from the testis and the different epididymal segments (i.e. caput, corpus and cauda) of CAG/su9-DsRed2; Acr3-EGFP transgenic mice. Reduced-Representation Bisulfite Sequencing (RRBS-Seq) performed on DNA from these respective sperm populations indicated that high methylation changes were observed between spermatozoa from the caput vs. testis with 5546 entries meeting our threshold values (q value < 0.01, methylation difference above 25 %). Most of these changes were transitory during epididymal sperm maturation according to the low number of entries identified between spermatozoa from cauda vs. testis.
