Purkinje cell intrinsic activity shapes cerebellar development and function

ABSTRACT: The emergence of functional cerebellar circuits is heavily influenced by activity-dependent processes. However, the contribution of intrinsic Purkinje cell activity to cerebellar development remains less understood. Here, we demonstrate that before synaptic networks mature, Purkinje cell intrinsic activity is essential for regulating dendritic growth, establishing connections with cerebellar nuclei, and ensuring proper cerebellar function. Disrupting this activity during the postnatal period impairs motor function, with earlier perturbations causing more severe deficits. Importantly, only early developmental disruptions lead to pronounced defects in cellular morphology, highlighting key temporal windows for dendritic growth and maturation. Transcriptomic analyses reveal that early intrinsic activity drives the expression of activity-dependent genes, including Prkcg and Car8, which are essential for dendritic development. Our findings emphasize the importance of temporally regulated intrinsic activity in Purkinje cells in guiding cerebellar circuit development, providing a potential unifying mechanism underlying cerebellum-associated disorders.

PKCγ-mediated phosphorylation of CRMP2 regulates dendritic outgrowth in cerebellar Purkinje cells

Project description:The signalling protein PKCγ is a major regulator of Purkinje cell development and synaptic function. We have shown previously that increased PKCγ activity impairs dendritic development of cerebellar Purkinje cells. Mutations in the protein kinase Cγ gene (PRKCG) cause spinocerebellar ataxia type 14 (SCA14). In a transgenic mouse model of SCA14 expressing the human S361G mutation, Purkinje cell dendritic development is impaired in cerebellar slice cultures similar to pharmacological activation of PKC. The mechanisms of PKCγ-driven inhibition of dendritic growth are still unclear. Using immunoprecipitation-coupled mass spectrometry analysis we have identified Collapsin Response Mediator Protein 2 (CRMP2) as a protein interacting with constitutive active PKCγ(S361G) and confirmed the interaction with the Duolink™ proximity ligation assay. We show that in cerebellar slice cultures from PKCγ(S361G)- mice, phosphorylation of CRMP2 at the known PKC target site Thr555 is increased in Purkinje cells confirming phosphorylation of CRMP2 by PKCγ. miRNA-mediated CRMP2 knockdown decreased Purkinje cell dendritic outgrowth in dissociated cerebellar cultures as did the transfection of CRMP2 mutants with a modified Thr555 site. In contrast, dendritic development was normal after wildtype CRMP2 overexpression. In a novel knock-in mouse expressing only the phospho-defective T555A-mutant CRMP2, Purkinje cell dendritic development was reduced in dissociated cultures. This reduction could be rescued by transfecting wildtype CRMP2 but only partially by the phospho-mimetic T555D-mutant. Our findings establish CRMP2 as an important target of PKCγ phosphorylation in Purkinje cells mediating its control of dendritic development. Dynamic regulation of CRMP2 phosphorylation via PKCγ is required for its correct function.

RNA Sequencing of mouse Purkinje cells across postnatal development

Project description:We analyzed Purkinje cell transcriptome dynamics in the developing mouse cerebellum during the first three postnatal weeks, a key developmental period equivalent to the third trimester in human cerebellar development. Our study represents the first detailed analysis of developmental Purkinje cell transcriptomes and provides a valuable dataset for gene network analyses and biological questions on genes implicated in cerebellar and Purkinje cell development.

Altered Glutamate Receptor Ionotropic Delta Subunit 2 expression in Stau2 deficient cerebellar Purkinje cells in the adult brain

Project description:Staufen2 (Stau2) is an RNA-binding protein that is involved in dendritic spine morphogenesis and function. Several studies have recently investigated the role of Stau2 in the regulation of its neuronal target mRNAs, with particular focus on the hippocampus. Here, we provide evidence for Stau2 expression and function in cerebellar Purkinje cells. We show that Stau2 downregulation (Stau2GT) lead to an increase of the glutamate receptor ionotropic delta subunit 2 (GluD2) in Purkinje cells when animals performed physical activity by voluntary wheel running. Furthermore, Stau2GT mice showed lower performance in motor coordination assays but enhanced motor learning abilities, concomitantly with an increase in dendritic GluD2 expression. Together, our results suggest a novel role of Stau2 in Purkinje cell synaptogenesis in the mouse cerebellum

A new Knock-in mouse model of SCA14 with increased PKCγ activity induces a SCA-like phenotype with perturbed Purkinje cell maturation and ataxic motor behavior

Project description:Spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs) are a group of cerebellar diseases characterized by loss and dysfunction of Purkinje cells and Spinocerebellar ataxia type 14 (SCA14) is caused by missense mutations or deletions in the Protein kinase C γ (PKCγ) gene. Until now, more than 40 different mutations or deletions in the PKCγ gene have been found in SCA14 patients. Many of these mutations have been shown to have an increased enzymatic activity in cell-based assays, but there is also evidence that the mutations may result in inefficient activation of downstream signalling pathways compatible with a loss of function. Therefore, it is still unclear how mutant PKCγ may cause the disease. We have previously generated a transgenic SCA14 mouse model with a human SCA14 mutation in the kinase domain. This transgenic mouse shows mild ataxia and abnormal Purkinje cell dendritic development with a morphology indistinguishable from that of PKC activator treated Purkinje cells, indicating that the PKCγ with this kinase domain mutation has indeed increased biological activity. In order to confirm that increased PKC activity in vivo perturbs Purkinje cell maturation and induces ataxia we have now created a new knock-in mouse model with a missense mutation in the PKCγ pseudosubstrate domain keeping the PKCγ protein in the open active conformation. This knock-in mouse shows indeed abnormal Purkinje cell maturation and ataxia, even in a heterozygous state corresponding to the human disease situation. Our findings confirm that constitutive activation of PKCγ is one way to induce a phenotype corresponding to human spinocerebellar ataxia.

Loss of Tmem106b leads to cerebellum Purkinje cell death and motor deficits

Project description:The loss of Tmem106b results in an age-dependent loss of cerebellar Purkinje cells accompanied with motor function deficits. Tmem106b deficiency also results in lysosomal enlargement in both Purkinje cells and microglia, and increased neuroinflammation including complement system activation. These data suggest that, in addition to myelination, Tmem106b also plays important role in maintaining the health and survival of cerebellar Purkinje cells during aging.

Human Cerebellar Organoids with functional Purkinje Cells

Project description:Research on human cerebellar development and disease has been hampered by the need for a human cell-based system that recapitulates the human cerebellum's cellular diversity and functional features. Here, we report a human organoid model (hCerOs) capable of developing the complex cellular diversity of the fetal cerebellum, including human-specific rhombic lip progenitor populations that have never been generated in vitro prior to this study. Two months old hCerOs form distinct cytoarchitectural features, including laminar organized layering and create functional connections between inhibitory and excitatory neurons that display coordinated network activity. Long-term culture of hCerOs allows for healthy survival and maturation of Purkinje cells that display molecular and electrophysiological hallmarks of their in vivo counterparts, addressing a long-standing challenge in the field. This study therefore provides a physiologically relevant, all-human model system to elucidate the cell type specific mechanisms governing cerebellar development and disease.
