Project description:Analysis of gene expression in the paraventricular nucleus in the hypothalamus (PVH) of WT and Sim1-Cre specific DNMT3a deletion mice. Results provide important information about genes regulated by DNMT3a. For the gene expression profiling, total RNA was extracted from PVH of WT and Sim1-Cre specific DNMT3a deletion mice (C57BL6 background) at 6 weeks old using Qiagen RNeasy Lipid Tissue Mini Kit (Qiagen) and Phase Lock Gel (5 Prime Inc., Gaitherburg, MD). To make sure reproducibility and biological significance, triple hybridizations were performed for each genotype with the RNA from 3 indipendent PVH samples, each sample contains RNA from 5 animals. Genomics and Microarray Core Facility at UTSW (http://microarray.swmed.edu/) checked RNA quality with Bioanalyzer Chip and processed the samples for hybridization with Illumina Mouse-6 V2 BeadChip (Illumina Inc., San Diego, CA). We used GeneSpring GX (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA) for data analysis.

Project description:Depression and anxiety disorders are more prevalent in females, but the majority of research in animal models, the first step in finding new treatments, has focused predominantly on males. Here we report that exposure to subchronic variable stress (SCVS) induces depression-associated behaviors in female mice, whereas males are resilient as they do not develop these behavioral abnormalities. In concert with these different behavioral responses, transcriptional analysis of nucleus accumbens (NAc), a major brain reward region, by use of RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) revealed markedly different patterns of stress regulation of gene expression between the sexes. Among the genes displaying sex differences was DNA methyltransferase 3a (Dnmt3a), which shows a greater induction in females after SCVS. Interestingly, Dnmt3a expression levels were increased in the NAc of depressed humans, an effect seen in both males and females. Local overexpression of Dnmt3a in NAc rendered male mice more susceptible to SCVS, whereas Dnmt3a knock-out in this region rendered females more resilient, directly implicating this gene in stress responses. Associated with this enhanced resilience of female mice upon NAc knock-out of Dnmt3a was a partial shift of the NAc female transcriptome toward the male pattern after SCVS. These data indicate that males and females undergo different patterns of transcriptional regulation in response to stress and that a DNA methyltransferase in NAc contributes to sex differences in stress vulnerability. mRNA profiles of sex-specific in stress response were generated in the Nucleus Accumbens for 3 female control mice, 3 male control mice, 3 stressed female mice, 3 stressed male mice. Cre-mediated Dnmt3a knock-out was performed on stressed mice, with 3 males and 3 females expressing control GFP and 3 males and 3 females expressing CRE/GFP.

Project description:Malnutrition during pregnancy, which causes prenatal exposure to excessive glucocorticoid, induces adverse metabolic programming leading to hypertension in offspring. Pregnant rats receiving a low-protein diet exhibited moderate downregulation of 11-beta-dehydrogenase isozyme 2, which inactivates corticosterone, in the placenta, resulting in prenatal exposure to excessive corticosterone. In offspring of pregnant rats receiving a low-protein diet or dexamethasone, mRNA expression of angiotensin receptor type 1a (Agtr1a) in the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) of the hypothalamus was upregulated, concurrent with reduced expression of DNA methyltransferase 3a (Dnmt3a), reduced binding of DNMT3a to the Agtr1a promoter, and DNA demethylation, suggesting hypothalamic Agtr1a expression is epigenetically modulated by excess glucocorticoid. Dexamethasone treatment of PVN cells downregulated DNMT3a while upregulating Agtr1a, and decreased DNMT3a binding and DNA demethylation at the Agtr1a promoter. Consistent with Agtr1a upregulation in the hypothalamus, salt loading increased BP in both types of offspring. Even without dexamethasone treatment, hypothalamic neuron-specific DNMT3a-deficient mice, in which Agtr1a was upregulated, exhibited salt-induced BP elevation. By contrast, dexamethasone-treated Agtr1a-deficient mice failed to show salt-induced BP elevation, despite reduced expression of DNMT3a. Thus, epigenetic modulation of hypothalamic angiotensin signaling contributes to salt-sensitive hypertension induced by prenatal glucocorticoid excess in offspring of mothers that are malnourished during pregnancy.

Project description:Nine microRNAs (miRs) previously identified as increased in the sperm of stressed sires were microinjected into C57/Bl6:129S6/SvEvTac mouse single cell zygotes to examine the hypothesis that specific sperm miRs function postfertilization to alter offspring stress responsivity. Derived mice were exmined for hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis stress response in adulthood, and the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus was subsequently collected for gene expression analysis by next gen sequencing. Similar to what we reported previously in our paternal stress model, the majority of diffferenitally expressed genes in the PVN exhibited decreased expression, supporting that an increase of specific sperm miRs in the zygote can elicit long-term genetic reprogramming. Futher, marked changes in the expression of extracellular matrix and collagen gene sets suggested altered blood-brain barrier permeability with potential consequences for neuroendocrine function. mRNA profiling of paraventricular nucleus from adult male mice derived from zygote microinjection of nine miRs (multi-miR; miR-29, miR-30a, miR-30c, miR-32, miR-193-5p, miR-204, miR-375, miR-532-3p, miR-698) or PBS. Six biological replicates per group (12 total cDNA libraries) were multiplexed and sequenced on two identical HiSeq2000 lanes (Illumina).

Project description:We created a mouse line in which deletion of exon 19 of Dnmt3a is driven by the Neurod6 promoter (also known as Nex-Cre line). In this conditional knockout (cKO), Dnmt3a is functionally ablated in excitatory neurons in the neocortex and hippocampus starting in mid/late gestation (~E13-15). With an affinity purification approach to isolate tagged nuclei in mice (similar to INTACT; [Deal R.B. and Henikoff S. A simple method for gene expression and chromatin profiling of individual cell types within a tissue. Dev. Cell 18,1030-1040. (2010)]), we characterized the genome-wide patterns of transcription, DNA methylation, and histone modifications in excitatory pyramidal neurons of the frontal cortex from the Dnmt3a cKO and control mice. Our data provide a detailed assessment of the molecular basis of the accompanying changes of neurophysiological and behavioral phenotypes in the cKO mice, and suggest a complex interaction between DNA methylation and Polycomb-mediated repression in the epigenetic regulation in developing brain cells.
