Project description:Addictive drugs including opioids activate signal transduction pathways that regulate gene expression in the brain. However, changes in CNS gene expression following morphine exposure are poorly understood. We studied the effect of short- and long-term morphine treatment on gene expression in the hypothalamus and pituitary using genome-wide DNA microarray and real-time reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analyses. In the hypothalamus, we found that short-term morphine administration up-regulated (at least 2-fold) 39 genes and down-regulated six genes. Long-term morphine administration up-regulated 35 genes and down-regulated 51 hypothalamic genes. In the pituitary, we found that short-term morphine administration up-regulated (at least 2-fold) 110 genes and down-regulated 29 genes. Long-term morphine administration up-regulated 85 genes and down-regulated 37 pituitary genes. Strikingly, microarray analysis uncovered several genes involved in food intake (neuropeptide Y, agouti-related protein, and cocaine and amphetamine-regulated transcript) whose expression was strongly altered by morphine exposure in either the hypothalamus or pituitary. Subsequent RT-PCR analysis confirmed similar gene regulation of noteworthy genes in these regions. Finally, we found functional correlation between morphine-induced alterations in food intake and regulations of genes involved in this process. Changes in genes related to food intake may uncover new pathways related to some of the physiological effects of opioids.

Project description:Opioid analgesics are frequently prescribed in the United States and worldwide. However, serious side effects such as addiction, immunosuppression and gastrointestinal symptoms limit long term use. In the current study using a chronic morphine-murine model a longitudinal approach was undertaken to investigate the role of morphine modulation of gut microbiome as a mechanism contributing to the negative consequences associated with opioids use. The results revealed a significant shift in the gut microbiome and metabolome within 24 hours following morphine treatment when compared to placebo. Morphine induced gut microbial dysbiosis exhibited distinct characteristic signatures profiles including significant increase in communities associated with pathogenic function, decrease in communities associated with stress tolerance. Collectively, these results reveal opioids-induced distinct alteration of gut microbiome, may contribute to opioids-induced pathogenesis. Therapeutics directed at these targets may prolong the efficacy long term opioid use with fewer side effects.

Project description:The crucial role of nutrition for cerebral health and the impact of dietary habits on brain structure and function have been long far recognized. To date a major health concern is associated with the increased consumption of fructose as added sugar in many types of drinks and processed foods, especially among young people. High-fructose intake has been pointed out as the possible culprit for the raised incidence of chronic diseases, such as obesity, cardiovascular disease, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, and type 2 diabete. Further, it has been reported that high-fructose intake is associated with the over-activation of its cerebral metabolism, which was proposed to negatively impact on whole brain physiology and cognitive function. Notably, we previously reported that short-term fructose-rich diet induces mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, and neuroinflammation in hippocampus of young rats, as well as the imbalance of redox homeostasis, autophagic mechanisms and representation of synaptic markers in frontal cortex of both adult and young rats. Animal studies have also revealed the damaging effect of high-fructose diets on hippocampal functions during periods of neurocognitive development, such as childhood and adolescence. Hypothalamus plays a crucial role in maintaining whole body homeostasis. Long-term fructose overfeeding was reported to alter hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, leading to elevations in glucocorticoids in peri-adolescent rats [22]. Further, fructose overconsumption was associated with impairment of hypothalamic insulin signalling, oxidative stress and inflammation , and it was proposed that fructose-driven perturbations of hypothalamic function may compromise the potential for satiety, thereby increasing the prospect of developing obesity. Data currently available on hypothalamic dysfunctions related to a high-fructose diet essentially refer to the effects of long-term sugar feeding, while information on corresponding alterations associated with a short-term dietary treatment, particularly in the critical period of adolescence, is still lacking. Due to complexity and multiplicity of hypothalamic functions, there is also the need for a holistic characterization aimed at unveiling the general picture of hypothalamic dysfunctions associated with a high-fructose diet. To fill this gap, we investigated adolescent rats fed a fructose-rich or control diet, for 3 weeks. To verify whether the fructose-driven changes are rescued after the switch to a control diet, half of the rats from both animal groups were then fed a control diet for additional 3 weeks until young adulthood phase. Quantitative proteomics on hypothalamic extracts of all animal groups was used to identify molecular alterations triggered by fructose-rich diet and to obtain insights into the relationship between sugar feeding and possible dysfunctions of hypothalamus.

Project description:Estradiol plays a critical role stimulating the fetal hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis at the end of gestation. Estradiol action is mediated through nuclear and membrane receptors that can be modulated by ICI 182,780, a pure anti-estrogen compound. The objective of this study was to evaluate the transcriptomics of estradiol and ICI 182,780, testing the hypothesis that ICI 182,780 blocks the action of estradiol in the fetal hypothalamus. However, we found that a short term (48 hrs) infusion with ICI 182,780 induces a similar transcriptomic response than estradiol infusion in the late gestation ovine fetal hypothalamus, being more evident with higher doses of ICI 182,780. These results suggest that ICI 182,780 is primarily an agonist of estradiol in the developing brain.

Project description:Prenatal opioid exposure is a major health concern in the United States, with the incidence of neonatal opioid withdrawal syndrome (NOWS) escalating in recent years. NOWS is revealed upon cessation of in utero opioid exposure and is characterized by increased irritability, disrupted sleep patterns, high-pitched crying, and erratic feeding. The main pharmacological treatment strategy for alleviating symptoms is opioid maintenance therapy. The neural mechanisms mediating NOWS and the long-term neurobehavioral effects are poorly understood. We used a third trimester-approximate model in which neonatal outbred pups (Cartworth Farms White; CFW) were administered once-daily morphine (15 mg/kg, s.c.) from postnatal day (P) day 1 through P14 and were then assessed for behavioral and transcriptomic adaptations within the nucleus accumbens (NAc) on P15. We also investigated the long-term effects of perinatal morphine exposure on adult learning and reward sensitivity. We observed significant weight deficits, spontaneous thermal hyperalgesia, and altered ultrasonic vocalization (USV) profiles following repeated morphine and during spontaneous withdrawal. Transcriptome analysis of NAc from opioid-withdrawn P15 neonates via bulk mRNA sequencing identified an enrichment profile consistent with downregulation of myelin-associated transcripts. Despite the neonatal behavioral and molecular effects, there were no significant long-term effects of perinatal morphine exposure on adult spatial memory function in the Barnes Maze, emotional learning in fear conditioning, or in baseline or methamphetamine-potentiated reward sensitivity as measured via intracranial self-stimulation. Thus, the once daily third trimester-approximate exposure regimen, while inducing NOWS model traits and significant transcriptomic effects in neonates, had no significant long-term effects on adult behaviors.

Project description:This experiment intended to look for the transcriptome changes that happen in neuronal cells from the preoptic area of the hypothalamus expressing leptin receptors during heat acclimation conditions. 3 groups of animals were used; long-term heat-acclimated animals constantly exposed to 36˚C for 28-35 days, short-term heat-acclimated animals constantly exposed to 36˚C for 5 days, and non-habituated (non-acclimated) animals which were not exposed to heat. The animal line used was LepRCreHTB.
