Gene expression of L3 parvalbumin neurons in the DLPFC comparing schizophrenia with unaffected subjects

ABSTRACT: Schizophrenia is associated with dysfunction of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC). This dysfunction is manifest as cognitive deficits that appear to arise from disturbances in gamma frequency oscillations. These oscillations are generated in DLPFC layer 3 via reciprocal connections between pyramidal cells and parvalbumin (PV)-containing interneurons. The density of cortical PV neurons is not altered in schizophrenia, but expression levels of several transcripts involved in PV cell function, including PV, are lower in the disease.

Molecular profile of parvalbumin-immunoreactive neurons in superior temporal cortex in schizophrenia

Project description:Dysregulation of pyramidal cell network function by the soma- and axon-targeting inhibitory neurons that contain the calcium-binding protein parvalbumin (PV) represents a core pathophysiological feature of schizophrenia. In order to gain insight into the molecular basis of their functional impairment, we used laser capture microdissection (LCM) to isolate PV-immunolabeled neurons from layer 3 of BrodmannM-bM-^@M-^Ys area 42 of the superior temporal gyrus (STG) from postmortem schizophrenia and normal control brains. We then extracted ribonucleic acid (RNA) from these neurons and determined their messenger RNA (mRNA) expression profile using the Affymetrix platform of microarray technology. 739 mRNA transcripts were found to be differentially expressed in PV neurons in subjects with schizophrenia, including genes associated with WNT (wingless-type), NOTCH and PGE2 (prostaglandin E2) signaling, in addition to genes that regulate cell cycle and apoptosis. Of these 739 genes, only 89 (12%) were also differentially expressed in pyramidal neurons as found in the accompanying study, suggesting that the molecular pathophysiology of schizophrenia appears to be predominantly neuronal type-specific. Taken together, findings of this study provide a neurobiological framework within which hypotheses of the molecular mechanisms that underlie the dysfunction of PV neurons in schizophrenia can be generated and experimentally explored and, as such, may ultimately inform the conceptualization of targeted molecular intervention. Gene expression microarray from mRNA isolated from parvalbumin cells in layer 3 of the STG from 8 normal controls and 8 subjects with schizophrenia. There was no significant difference between diagnosis groups for age, sex, and post mortem interval (PMI).

Gene expression of L3 and L5 pyramidal neurons in the DLPFC comparing schizophrenia from bipolar major depressive disorders and unaffected subjects.

Project description:Impairments in certain cognitive processes (e.g., working memory) are typically most pronounced in schizophrenia (SZ), intermediate in bipolar disorder (BP) and least in major depressive disorder (MDD). Given that working memory depends, in part, on neural circuitry that includes pyramidal neurons in layer 3 (L3) and layer 5 (L5) of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC), we sought to determine if transcriptome alterations in these neurons were shared or distinctive for each diagnosis.

Discrete hippocampal projections are differentially regulated by parvalbumin and somatostatin interneurons

Project description:People with schizophrenia show hyperactivity in the ventral hippocampus (vHipp) and we have previously demonstrated distinct behavioral roles for vHipp cell populations. Here, we test the hypothesis that parvalbumin (PV) and somatostatin (SST) interneurons differentially innervate and regulate hippocampal pyramidal neurons based on their projection target. First, we use eGRASP to show that PV-positive interneurons form a similar number of synaptic connections with pyramidal cells regardless of their projection target while SST-positive interneurons preferentially target nucleus accumbens (NAc) projections. To determine if these anatomical differences result in functional changes, we used in vivo opto-electrophysiology to show that SST cells also preferentially regulate the activity of NAc-projecting cells. These results suggest vHipp interneurons differentially regulate that vHipp neurons that project to the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) and NAc. Characterization of these cell populations may provide potential molecular targets for the treatment schizophrenia and other psychiatric disorders associated with vHipp dysfunction.

Distinctive transcriptome alterations of prefrontal pyramidal neurons in schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder

Project description:Schizophrenia is associated with alterations in working memory that reflect dysfunction of dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) circuitry. Working memory depends on the activity of excitatory pyramidal cells in DLPFC layer 3, and to a lesser extent in layer 5. Although many studies have profiled gene expression in DLPFC gray matter in schizophrenia, little is known about cell type-specific transcript expression in these two populations of pyramidal cells. We hypothesized that interrogating gene expression specifically in DLPFC layer 3 or 5 pyramidal cells would reveal new and/or more robust schizophrenia-associated differences that would provide new insights into the nature of pyramidal cell dysfunction in the illness.

Native-state proteomics of Parvalbumin interneurons identifies novel molecular signatures and metabolic vulnerabilities to early Alzheimer's disease pathology

Project description:One of the earliest pathophysiological perturbations in Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) may arise from dysfunction of fast-spiking parvalbumin (PV) interneurons (PV-INs). Defining early protein-level (proteomic) alterations in PV-INs can provide key biological and translationally relevant insights. Here, we use cell-type-specific in vivo biotinylation of proteins (CIBOP) coupled with mass spectrometry to obtain native-state proteomes of PV interneurons. PV-INs exhibited proteomic signatures of high metabolic, mitochondrial, and translational activity, with over-representation of causally linked AD genetic risk factors. Analyses of bulk brain proteomes indicated strong correlations between PV-IN proteins with cognitive decline in humans, and with progressive neuropathology in humans and mouse models of Aβ pathology. Furthermore, PV-IN-specific proteomes revealed unique signatures of increased mitochondrial and metabolic proteins, but decreased synaptic and mTOR signaling proteins in response to early Aβ pathology. PV-specific changes were not apparent in whole-brain proteomes. These findings showcase the first nativestate PV-IN proteomes in mammalian brain, revealing a molecular basis for their unique vulnerabilities in AD

Disruption of KCC2 in parvalbumin-positive interneurons causes fatal epilepsy in mice

Project description:Since many years, we are interested in the regulation of the intraneuronal chloride concentration. We were the first group reporting a full knockout of the KCl-co-transporter KCC2, which dies immediately after birth due to respiratory failure. Notably, KCC2 loss-of-function mutations are associated with inherited febrile seizures, severe genetic generalized epilepsy and epilepsy of infancy with migrating focal seizures. Here, we used our floxed line to study the consequences of the disruption of KCC2 within parvalbumin-positive interneurons in mice. Remarkably, this leads to the disinhibition of PV-positive interneurons as evidenced by a decrease of E-S-Coupling and an increase in the sIPSC frequency. Nevertheless, these mice develop fatal epilepsy with progressive loss of parvalbumin-positive interneurons thus increasing network excitability.

Transcriptomic changes in parvalbumin positive interneurons from cortex and striatum.

Project description:This experiment was designed to compare the transcriptomic differences between two parvalbumin (PV) interneuron population of the mouse brain. These two populations have the same embryological origin and share several neurochemical and electrophysiological properties, but differ in their ability to express the glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor GDNF (negative in cortex and positive in striatum). Two different reporters for PV expressing cells were used: i) a constitutive tdTomato gene inserted in the Pvalb locus, and ii) a PV-Cre; tdTomato model in which fluorescent cells are PV cells expressing Cre recombinase. The comparative gene expression analysis between PV neurons captured from striatum and cortex allowed unraveling differential molecular characteristics of GDNF-synthesizing striatal PV interneurons and their potential role in endogenous GDNF modulation. The specific expression of several genes of interest in the striatal PV interneurons has been validated by other methods (real-time RT-PCR, in situ hibridization, immunohistochemistry).

Cell-specific vulnerability to metabolic failure: the crucial role of parvalbumin expressing neurons in Creatine Transporter Deficiency

Project description:Mutations in the X-linked solute carrier family 6-member (Slc6a8) gene, encoding the protein responsible for cellular creatine (Cr) uptake, cause Creatine Transporter Deficiency (CTD), an X-linked neurometabolic disorder presenting with cognitive dysfunction, autistic-like features, and epilepsy. The pathological determinants of CTD are still poorly understood and this lack of knowledge might hinder the development of therapeutic strategies. Here, we show that Cr deficiency perturbs gene expression in excitatory neurons, inhibitory cells and oligodendrocytes, inducing a remodeling of circuit excitability and synaptic wiring, while no effects are present in astrocytes and endothelial cells. We also describe specific alterations of high-energy demanding, Parvalbumin-expressing (PV+) interneurons, exhibiting a reduction in cellular and synaptic density, and a hypofunctional phenotype, affecting initiation, kinetics and frequency of action potentials. Mice lacking Slc6a8 only in PV+ neurons recapitulate numerous CTD features, such as cognitive deterioration, impaired cortical processing and hyperexcitability of brain circuits, demonstrating that Cr deficit in PV+ cells is sufficient to determine the CTD neurological endophenotype. Moreover, a pharmacological treatment targeted to restore the efficiency of PV+ synapses induces a significant improvement of cortical activity in Slc6a8 knock-out animals. Altogether, these data establish that Slc6a8 is critical for the normal function of PV+ interneurons and that a subtle dysfunction of these cells is critical for the disease pathogenesis, suggesting a novel therapeutic venue for CTD.
