The noncoding circular RNA circHomer1 regulates synaptic development and experience-dependent plasticity in mouse visual cortex

ABSTRACT: Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a class of closed-loop, single stranded RNAs whose expression is particularly enriched in the brain. Despite this enrichment and evidence that the expression of circRNAs are altered by synaptic development and in response to synaptic plasticity in vitro, the regulation by and function of the majority of circRNAs in experience-dependent plasticity in vivo remain unexplored. Here, we employed transcriptome-wide analysis comparing differential expression of both mRNAs and circRNAs in juvenile mouse primary visual cortex (V1) following monocular deprivation (MD), a model of experience-dependent developmental plasticity. Among the differentially expressed mRNAs and circRNAs following 3-day MD, the circular and the activity-dependent mRNA forms of the Homer1 gene, circHomer1 and Homer1a respectively, were of interest as their expression changed in opposite directions: circHomer1 expression increased while the expression of Homer1a decreased following 3-day MD. Knockdown of circHomer1 delayed the depression of closed-eye responses normally observed after 3-day MD. circHomer1-knockdown also led to a reduction in average dendritic spine size prior to MD but critically there was no further reduction after 3-day MD, consistent with impaired structural plasticity. circHomer1-knockdown also prevented the reduction of surface AMPA receptors after 3-day MD. Thus, the expression of multiple circRNAs are regulated by experience-dependent developmental plasticity, and our findings highlight the essential role of circHomer1 in V1 synaptic development and experience-dependent plasticity.

Transcription profiling of mouse primary visual cortext from animals treated with monocular deprivation (MD), dark rearing and controls reveals binding protein of Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 is highly upregulated after MD

Project description:Two key paradigms for examining activity-dependent development of primary visual cortex (V1) involve either reduction of activity in both eyes via dark-rearing (DR) or imbalance of activity between the two eyes via monocular deprivation (MD).,Combining DNA microarray analysis with computational approaches, RT-PCR, immunohistochemistry and physiological imaging, we find that DR leads to (i) upregulation of genes subserving synaptic transmission and electrical activity, consistent with a coordinated response of cortical neurons to reduction of visual drive, and (ii) downregulation of parvalbumin, implicating parvalbumin-expressing neurons as underlying the delay in cortical maturation after DR. MD partially activates homeostatic mechanisms but differentially upregulates gene systems related to growth factors and neuronal degeneration, consistent with reorganization of connections after MD. A binding protein of Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 is highly upregulated after MD, and exogenous application of IGF1 prevents the physiological effects of MD on ocular dominance plasticity examined in vivo.

Molecular states underlying neuronal cell type development and plasticity in the whisker cortex

Project description:Mouse whisker somatosensory cortex (wS1) is a major model system to study the experience-dependent plasticity of cortical neuron physiology, morphology, and sensory coding. However, the role of sensory experience in regulating neuronal cell type development and gene expression in wS1 remains poorly understood. We assembled and annotated a transcriptomic atlas of wS1 during postnatal development comprising 45 molecularly distinct neuronal types that can be grouped into eight subclasses of excitatory neurons and four subclasses of inhibitory neurons. Using this atlas, we examined the influence of whisker experience between postnatal day (P) 12, the onset of active whisking, to P22, on the maturation of molecularly distinct cell types. During this developmental period, when whisker experience was normal, ~250 genes were regulated in a neuronal subclass-specific fashion. At the resolution of neuronal types, we found that only the composition of layer (L) 2/3 glutamatergic neuronal types, but not other neuronal types, changed substantially between P12 and P22. These compositional changes resemble those observed previously in the primary visual cortex (V1), and the temporal gene expression changes were also highly conserved between the two regions. In contrast to V1, however, cell type maturation in wS1 is likely independent of sensory experience, as 10-day full-face whisker deprivation had no influence on the transcriptomic identity and composition of L2/3 neuronal types. A one-day competitive whisker deprivation protocol also did not affect cell type identity but induced moderate changes in plasticity-related gene expression. Thus, developmental maturation of cell types is similar in V1 and wS1, but sensory deprivation has a minimal effect on cell type development in wS1.

Activity-dependent synthesis of Emerin gates neuronal plasticity via proteostasis regulation

Project description:Neurons dynamically regulate their proteome in response to sensory input, a key process underlying experience-dependent structural and functional plasticity. Here, we characterized the visual experience-dependent nascent proteome within a brief, defined time window using an optimized metabolic labeling approach. Visual experience induces cell type-specific and age-dependent alterations in the nascent proteome and recruits proteostasis-related processes. We identified Emerin as the top activity-induced candidate plasticity protein and demonstrated that its activity-induced synthesis is transcription-independent. In contrast to its well-studied nuclear localization and function in myocytes, activity-induced neuronal Emerin is abundant in the ER and broadly inhibits protein synthesis, including synaptic proteins. Downregulating Emerin increases synaptic density, however, it shifts dendritic spines from predominantly mushroom morphology to filopodia, leading to decreased network connectivity, visual responses and visual information processing. Our findings support a visual experience-dependent feed-forward role for Emerin in gating neuronal plasticity through negative regulation of translation.

Role of the Visual Conditioning-Dependent Nascent Proteome in Neuronal Plasticity

Project description:Experience-dependent synaptic plasticity refines brain circuits during development. To uncover protein synthesis-dependent mechanisms contributing to experience-dependent plasticity, we performed quantitative proteomic analysis of the nascent proteome using improved bio-orthogonal metabolic labeling (BONCAT) to identify candidate plasticity proteins (CPPs) that undergo differential protein synthesis in response to visual conditioning (VC) in Xenopus optic tectum. We identified 83 CPPs that formed strongly connected networks and were annotated to a variety of biological functions, including RNA splicing, protein translation, and chromatin remodeling. Functional analysis of select CPPs using translation blocking morpholinos revealed the requirement of eukaryotic initiation factor 3 subunit A (eIF3A), fused in sarcoma (FUS), and ribosomal protein s17 (RPS17) in experience-dependent structural plasticity of tectal neurons. These results demonstrate that the nascent proteome is dynamic in response to VC and that de novo synthesis of the machinery that regulates gene expression and protein translation is required for experience-dependent structural plasticity.

human amygdala CS-56 enrichment LC-MS/MS

Project description:Experience-dependent learning depends on synaptic plasticity. Recent findings show that effective integration of novel salient information requires coordinated processes of homo- and hetero- synaptic plasticity onto neighboring dendritic branches. In this work, we hypothesized that activity-dependent remodeling of the peri-synaptic extracellular matrix (ECM) contributes to this mechanism. We show that clusters of the peri-synaptic ECM proteoglycans, containing 6- and 2,6-sulfated chondroitin sulfates recognized by CS56 antibody, emerge in response to sensory stimuli, showing temporal and spatial coincidence with dendritic spine plasticity. CS56 co-immunoprecipitation of synaptosomal proteins identified several CS56-carrying/binding synaptic molecules that are implicated in Ca2+ signaling, vesicles cycling and AMPA-receptor exocytosis, thus suggesting their pivotal role in long-term potentiation (LTP). Finally, we demonstrated that the attenuation of CS56 glycoepitopes in the CA1 hippocampal region, through the depletion of versican as one of its main carriers, impairs LTP and object location memory in adult mice. These findings show that specific ECM glycans regulates the molecular mechanisms underlying induction and consolidation of synaptic plasticity, confirming that experience-dependent refinement of the brain ECM plays a critical role in learning and memory.

RNA-Seq in hippocampus of control and Jade2-KO mice

Project description:Impairment of synaptic plasticity is involved in a range of pathological conditions such as cognitive deficits. However, how synaptic efficacy is regulated is not fully understood. Here, we report that the epigenetic factor Jade family PHD finger 2 (JADE2), which is upregulated by neuronal activities, is critically involved in the maintenance of hippocampal synaptic plasticity and cognitive functions in mice. Knockdown or genetic deletion of JADE2 in hippocampal CA1 results in impaired structural and functional synaptic plasticity, leading to memory impairment, whereas overexpression of JADE2 in CA1 neurons facilitates hippocampal-dependent learning and memory. Mechanistically, we show that JADE2 modulates synaptic functions mainly by transcriptional activation of cytoskeletal protein RAC1, and this activity is dependent on its interaction with histone acetyltransferase HBO1. Together, our findings suggest JADE2 is a critical player for experience-dependent gene regulation in controlling synaptic plasticity and cognitive functions.

Neural circular RNAs are derived from synaptic genes and regulated by development and plasticity

Project description:Circular RNAs (circRNAs), formed by the atypical head-to-tail splicing of exons, have re-emerged as a potentially interesting RNA species given recent reports of a surprising diversity and abundance of circRNA in organisms ranging from worm to human. Here, using deep RNA sequencing, we profiled different RNA species in mouse and observed that circRNAs are significantly enriched in neural tissue, relative to other tissues. Using PacBio sequencing, we determined, for the first time, the circular structure of this population of circRNAs as well as their full-length sequences. We discovered that a disproportionate fraction of the brain circRNA population is derived from host genes that code for synaptic proteins. Moreover, based on the separate profiling of the RNAs localized in neuronal cell bodies and neuropil (enriched in axons and dendrites), we found that, on average, circular RNAs are more enriched in the neuropil than their host gene mRNA isoforms. Using high resolution in situ hybridization we, for the first time, directly visualized circRNA punctae in the dendrites of neurons. The host gene origin and location of the circRNA in neurons suggest the possibility that circRNAs might participate in the regulation of synaptic function and plasticity. Consistent with this idea, we observed via profiling at different developmental stages, that the abundance of many circular RNAs changes abruptly at a time corresponding to synaptogenesis. In addition, following a homeostatic downscaling of neuronal activity many circRNAs exhibit significant up or down-regulation. These data indicate that brain circRNAs are positioned to respond to and regulate synaptic function.

Microglial Rac1 is essential for experience-dependent brain plasticity and cognitive performance

Project description:Here, we used conditional cell-specific gene targeting in mice with multi-omics approaches, and demonstrated that the RhoGTPase Rac1 was an essential requirement for the microglia to sense and interpret the brain microenvironment, and for crucial microglia-synapse crosstalk driving experience-dependent plasticity. Phosphoproteomics profiling detected a large modulation of RhoGTPase signaling, predominantly of Rac1, in microglia of mice exposed to an environmental enrichment protocol. Ablation of microglial Rac1 affected pathways involved in microglia-synapse communication, disrupted experience-dependent synaptic remodeling, and blocked the gains in learning, memory and sociability induced by environmental enrichment.
