Project description:Novel taste memories, critical for animal survival, are consolidated to form long term memories which are dependent on translation regulation in the gustatory cortex We used microarray for identification of genes involved in novel taste learning at two time points- 1 and 3 hours following memory formation for novel taste Adult rats were separated into two groups- novel tatse (0.1% sacchain) and water, two time points were used 1, 3 hours following learnin. Rna was extracted and hybridized on Affymetrix microarray

Project description:Feeding is an important activity for all animals providing nutrients essential for survival and reproduction. Not surprisingly, learning plays a critical role in feeding behavior through the establishment and strengthening of food preferences and aversions. That is, the integration of taste and post ingestive visceral signals in the brain results in memorial representations about the consequences associated with ingesting a particular food. For example, when ingestion of a food is followed by negative gastrointestinal consequences (e.g. nausea, sickness, or vomiting), the animal develops a conditioned taste aversion (CTA), which produces a switch from acceptance to avoidance of that and any like tasting stimulus. Despite recent advances in understanding CTA responsive intracellular signaling pathways in the amygdala, little is known about any long-term regulation of target gene expression following CTA memory consolidation and retrieval. The present study utilized oligo-nucleotide microarray to understand the genes and networks involved in Conditional Taste Aversion Behavior.

Project description:Animals must learn through experience which foods are nutritious and should be consumed, and which are toxic and should be avoided. Enteroendocrine cells (EECs) are the principal chemosensors in the GI tract, but investigation of their role in behavior has been limited by the difficulty of selectively targeting these cells in vivo. Here we describe an intersectional genetic approach for manipulating EEC subtypes in behaving mice. We show that multiple EEC subtypes inhibit food intake but have different effects on learning. Conditioned flavor preference is driven by release of cholecystokinin whereas conditioned taste aversion is mediated by serotonin and substance P. These positive and negative valence signals are transmitted by vagal and spinal afferents, respectively. These findings establish a cellular basis for how chemosensing in the gut drives learning about food.

Project description:The type 1 taste receptor member 3 (T1R3) is a G protein-coupled receptor involved in sweet-taste perception. Besides the tongue, the T1R3 receptor is highly expressed in brain areas implicated in cognition, including the hippocampus and cortex. As cognitive decline is often preceded by significant metabolic or endocrinological dysfunctions regulated by the sweet-taste perception system, we hypothesized that a disruption of the sweet-taste perception in the brain could have a key role in the development of cognitive dysfunction. To assess the importance of the sweet-taste receptors in the brain, we conducted transcriptomic and proteomic analyses of cortical and hippocampal tissues isolated from T1R3 knock-out (T1R3KO) mice. The effect of an impaired sweet-taste perception system on cognition functions were examined by analyzing synaptic integrity and performing animal behavior on T1R3KO mice. Although T1R3KO mice did not present a metabolically disrupted phenotype, bioinformatic interpretation of the high-dimensionality data indicated a strong neurodegenerative signature associated with significant alterations in pathways involved in neuritogenesis, dendritic growth, and synaptogenesis. Furthermore, a significantly reduced dendritic spine density was observed in T1R3KO mice together with alterations in learning and memory functions as well as sociability deficits. Taken together our data suggest that the sweet-taste receptor system plays an important neurotrophic role in the extralingual central nervous tissue that underpins synaptic function, memory acquisition, and social behavior.

Project description:We proposed that DNA recombination/repair processes play a role in memory formation. Here, we used microarray analysis of rat amygdala genes to identify possible DNA recombination/repair factors involved in memory consolidation of conditioned taste aversion (CTA). Among the genes that showed statistically significant differential expression, we identified fen-1, encoding a flap-structure specific DNA endonuclease. Amygdalar fen-1 mRNA induction was associated to the illness component of CTA, since it could be observed by the pairing of a flavor and gastrointestinal illness, by the illness itself, but not by the presentation of the flavor alone. No CTA related induction of fen-1 expression was observed in the insular cortex. Importantly, functional validation studies demonstrated that amygdalar suppression of fen-1 expression impaired memory consolidation of CTA. Overall, our studies helped identify a new DNA recombination/repair candidate factor involved in memory formation of aversive experiences. Two comparisons were established between the cRNA samples: CTA versus Flavor-only and CTA versus Toxin-only. For each comparison, the microarray experiment was repeated four times using new biological samples, each consisting of a sample pool from 3 animals. Two of the four biological replicates were performed as dye-swaps in order to correct for dye bias effects.
