Characterization of an astrocyte perivascular endfeet transcriptome

ABSTRACT: We aim to identify mRNAs present in astrocyte endfeet. We performed a microarray study comparing mRNAs extracted from brain vessels purified from 2-month-old C57Bl6 mice, submitted or not to a partial basal lamina enzymatic digestion, allowing to remove astrocyte endfeet membranes and their associated astroglial mRNAs from the purified vessels. mRNAs depleted upon basal lamina digestion represent a specific population of astrocyte mRNAs transported in the perivascular endfeet

The Sarcoglycan complex is expressed in the cerebrovascular system and is specifically regulated by astroglial Cx30 channels

Project description:Astrocytes, the most prominent glial cell type in the brain, send specialized processes called endfeet around blood vessels and express a large molecular repertoire regulating the cerebrovascular system physiology. One of the most striking properties of astrocyte endfeet is their enrichment in gap junction protein Connexin 43 and 30 (Cx43 and Cx30) allowing in particular for direct intercellular trafficking of ions and small signaling molecules through perivascular astroglial networks. In this study, we addressed the specific role of Cx30 at the gliovascular interface. Using an inactivation mouse model for Cx30 (Cx30M-NM-^T/M-NM-^T), we showed that absence of Cx30 does not affect blood-brain barrier (BBB) organization and permeability. However, it results in the cerebrovascular fraction, in a strong upregulation of Sgcg encoding g-Sarcoglycan (SG), a member of the Dystrophin-associated protein complex (DAPC) connecting cytoskeleton and the extracellular matrix. The same molecular event occurs in Cx30T5M/T5M mutated mice, where Cx30 channels are closed, demonstrating that Sgcg regulation relied on Cx30 channel functions. We further characterized the cerebrovascular Sarcoglycan complex (SGC) and showed the presence of M-NM-1-, M-NM-2-, M-NM-4-, M-NM-3-, M-NM-5- and M-NM-6- SG, as well as Sarcospan. Altogether, our results suggest that the Sarcoglycan complex is present in the cerebrovascular system, and that expression of one of its members, g-Sarcoglycan, depends on Cx30 channels. As described in skeletal muscles, the SGC may contribute to membrane stabilization and signal transduction in the cerebrovascular system, which may therefore be regulated by Cx30 channel-mediated functions. Comparison of 3-month-old Cx30 deleted mice against WT genetic background.

Astroglial Hmgb1 regulates postnatal astrocyte morphogenesis and cerebrovascular maturation

Project description:Astrocytes are intimately linked with brain blood vessels, a relationship critical for neuronal function. However, astroglial factors driving these physical and functional associations during postnatal brain development have yet to be identified. By characterizing structural and transcriptional changes in mouse cortical astrocytes during the first two postnatal weeks, we find that high-mobility group box 1 (Hmgb1), normally upregulated with injury and involved in adult cerebrovascular repair, is highly expressed in astrocytes at birth and then decreases rapidly. Astrocyte-selective ablation of Hmgb1 at birth affects astrocyte morphology and endfoot placement, alters distribution of endfoot proteins connexin43 and aquaporin-4, induces transcriptional changes in astrocytes related to cytoskeleton remodeling, and profoundly disrupts endothelial ultrastructure. While lack of astroglial Hmgb1 does not affect the blood-brain barrier or angiogenesis postnatally, it impairs neurovascular coupling and behavior in adult mice. These findings identify astroglial Hmgb1 as a key player in postnatal gliovascular maturation.

Astroglial Hmgb1 regulates postnatal astrocyte morphogenesis and cerebrovascular maturation

Project description:Astrocytes are intimately linked with brain vessels, a relationship that is critical for neuronal health and function. However, key astroglial molecular factors that drive these physical and functional associations during postnatal brain development have not yet been identified. We characterized structural and transcriptional changes in mouse cortical astrocytes and microvessels during the first two postnatal weeks and found that high-mobility group box 1 (Hmgb1), normally upregulated with injury and involved in adult cerebrovascular repair, was highly expressed in astrocytes at birth to then decreased rapidly. Astrocyte-selective ablation of Hmgb1 in newborn mice affected astrocyte morphology and endfoot placement, induced disruption of endfoot proteins connexin43 and aquaporin-4, induced transcriptional changes in astrocytes, and profoundly altered endothelial cell ultrastructure. While lack of astroglial Hmgb1 did not affect the blood-brain barrier or angiogenesis postnatally, it impaired neurovascular coupling and behavior in adult mice. These findings identify astroglial Hmgb1 as a key player in postnatal gliovascular maturation.

The stem cell transcription factor SOX2 is essential for astrocyte maturation and controls animal hyperactive behavior

Project description:Children with SOX2-deficiency develop anophthalmia/microphthalmia and display neurological impairment. Here we report an essential role for astroglial SOX2 in brain anomalies and neurological defects. Sox2-deficiency inhibited postnatal astrocyte maturation without affecting astroglial proliferation and population expansion. Mechanistically, we found that SOX2 directly bound to a cohort of astrocytic signature genes such as those involving in glutamate transport and that Sox2-deficiency remarkably reduced glutamate transporter expression and compromised astrocyte function of glutamate uptake. Behaviorally, astroglial Sox2-deficient mice developed hyperactivity in locomotion while their motor skills, social capability, and learning abilities were unaffected. We found that astroglial Sox2-deficiency results in elevated glutamatergic synapse formation and elevated excitability of striatal medium spiny neurons, which has been shown to trigger hyperactive locomotion. Our study provides new insights into the biological mechanisms underlying brain defects in children with SOX2 mutations and unveils a novel connection between astrocyte SOX2 and brain development and behavior.
