Project description:Both acute and chronic stress have significant impact on brain functions. The amygdala is essential in mediating stress responses, but how its transcriptomic dynamics change under stress remains elusive. To overcome the difficulties in detecting subtle stress-induced changes by evaluating total RNA using classic RNA sequencing, we conducted thiol-labeled RNA sequencing (SLAM-seq). We injected 4-thiouridine (4sU) into mouse amygdala followed by SLAM-seq to detect nascent mRNA induced by acute and chronic restraint stress, and found that SLAM-seq could label actively transcribed genes in the major neuronal and glial subtypes. Using SLAM-seq, we found that chronic stress led to higher turnover of a group of genes associated with myelination, and this finding is confirmed by immunostaining which showed increased myelination in the chronically stressed amygdala. Additionally, genes detected by SLAM-seq and RNA-seq only partially overlapped, with SLAM-seq particularly sensitive to transcriptional changes in genes with high basal transcription levels. Thus, by applying SLAM-seq in vivo, we obtained a rich dataset of nascently transcribed genes in the amygdala under stress, and revealed distinct transcriptional dynamics associated with acute and chronic stress.

Project description:The amygdala or amygdala-like structure in the brain are found in all vertebrates, and plays a critical role for emotional processing. But the cellular architecture of amygdala and how they evolved are still elusive. Here, we generated single-nucleus RNA-sequencing data for more than 200,000 cells in human, macaque, mouse and chicken amygdala. Abundant neuronal cell types derived from different subnuclei of amygdala were identified in all datasets. Cross-species analyses revealed GABAergic neurons and GABAergic neuron-enriched subnuclei of amygdala were well-conserved in cellular composition and marker gene expression, whereas glutamatergic neuron-enriched subnuclei were relatively divergent. Furthermore, we discovered that LAMP5+ interneurons were much more numerous in primates, while DRD2+ GABAergic neurons, LAMP5+ and SATB2+ glutamatergic neurons were predominant in the human central amygdalar nucleus (CEA) and basolateral amygdala complex (BLA), respectively. In addition, we also identified GABAergic neuron-enriched subnuclei of amygdala in the chicken. Altogether, our study highlight extremely cell-type diversity in the amygdala across species and their species-specifc adaptations.

Project description:Neuroimmune interactions—signals transmitted between immune and brain cells—regulate many aspects of tissue physiology including responses to psychological stress, which can predispose individuals to develop neuropsychiatric diseases. Still, the interactions between hematopoietic and brain-resident cells that influence complex behaviors are poorly understood. Here, we used a combination of genomic and behavioral screens to demonstrate that astrocytes in the amygdala limit stress-induced fear behavior through EGFR. Mechanistically, amygdala astrocyte EGFR expression inhibits a stress-induced pro-inflammatory signal transduction cascade that facilitates neuro-glial cross-talk and stress-induced fear behavior through the orphan nuclear receptor NR2F2 in amygdala neurons. We uncovered that, in turn, decreased EGFR signaling and fear behavior were associated with meningeal monocyte recruitment during chronic stress. This set of neuroimmune interactions was therapeutically targetable by psychedelic administration, which reversed monocyte accumulation in the brain meninges along with fear behavior. Together with validation in clinical samples, these data suggest that psychedelics can be used to target neuroimmune interactions relevant to neuropsychiatric disorders and potentially other inflammatory diseases.

Project description:Alcohol affects gene expression in several brain regions. The amygdala is a key structure in the brainâs emotional system and in recent years the crucial importance of the amygdala in drug-seeking and relapse has been increasingly recognized. In this study gene expression screening was used to identify genes involved in alcoholism in the human basolateral amygdala. The results show that alcoholism affects a broad range of genes and many systems including genes involved in synaptic transmission, neurotransmitter transport, structural plasticity, metabolism, energy production, transcription and RNA processing and the circadian cycle. In particular, genes involved in the glutamate system were affected in the alcoholic patients. In the amygdala the glutamate system is involved in the acquisition, consolidation, expression and extinction of associative learning, which is a vital part of addiction, and in alcohol abusers it is associated with withdrawal anxiety and neurodegeneration. Downregulation of the excitatory amino acid transporters GLAST, GLT-1 and the AMPA glutamate receptor 2 (GluR2) revealed by the microarray were confirmed by Western blots. The decreased expression of GLAST, GLT-1 and GluR2 in the alcoholic patients may increase glutamate tone and activity in the basolateral amygdala and this may contribute to neurodegeneration as well as the expression of associative memories and anxiety which underlie continued drug-seeking and chronic relapse. Two-condition experiment, alcoholics vs controls. Biological replicates: 6 alcoholics 6 controls, one replicate per array.

Project description:Cysteine is unique among all protein-coding amino acids owing to its intrinsically high nucleophilicity. The cysteinyl thiol group can be covalently modified by both a broad range of redox mechanisms and various electrophiles derived from exogenous or endogenous sources. Measuring proteomic cysteines response to redox perturbation or electrophiles is critical for understanding the underlying mechanisms involved. Activity-based protein profiling (ABPP) based on thiol-reactive probes has been the method of choice for such analyses. We therefore adapted this approach and developed a new chemoproteomic platform, termed as QTRP (Quantitative Thiol Reactivity Profiling), that relies on the ability of a commercially available thiol-reactive probe IPM to covalently label, enrich, and quantify the reactive cysteinome in cells and tissues. Here, we provide a detailed and updated workflow of QTRP that includes procedures for (i) labeling of the reactive cysteinome from cell or tissue samples (e.g. control vs treatment) with IPM, (ii) processing the protein samples into tryptic peptides and tagging the probe-modified peptides with isotopically labeled azido-biotin reagents containing a photo-cleavable linker via click chemistry reaction, (iii) capturing biotin-conjugated peptides with streptavidin beads, (iv) identifying and quantifying the photo-released peptides by mass spectrometry (MS)-based shotgun proteomics, (v) interpreting MS data by a streamlined informatic pipeline using a proteomics software, pFind 3, and an automatic post-processing algorithm. We also outline here how to use QTRP for measuring the changes on proteomic cysteines upon redox perturbation and for identifying targeted cysteine sites of thiol-reactive electrophiles. We anticipate that this protocol should find broad applications in both redox/chemical biology and drug discovery. The protocol for sample preparation takes 3 days, whereas MS measurements and data analyses require 75 min and <30 min, respectively, per sample.

Project description:We characterized the mechanisms that allow yeast cells to survive under conditions of thiol peroxidase deficiency. Two thiol peroxidase null yeast (delta8) strains independently acquired a second copy of chromosome XI and increased expression of genes encoded by it. Delta-8 strains were compared to the Wt-M11 strain, which is characterized by duplication of chr-XI.
