Project description:Iron transporters are essential for maintaining cellular iron homeostasis. Among them, SLC22A17 mediates lipocalin-2 (LCN-2)-dependent iron transport, but its precise role in the brain remains unclear. Here, we show that Slc22a17 is critical for postnatal neurogenesis by regulating hippocampal iron balance. Conditional knockout of Slc22a17 in the murine brain causes early postnatal lethality, growth retardation, neural stem cell apoptosis, and cognitive deficits, largely due to oxidative stress from iron overload. Mechanistically, Slc22a17 interacts with p62 to modulate Nrf2 activity. Its loss aberrantly activates the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway, disrupting iron efflux and promoting accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). These findings establish Slc22a17 as a key regulator of neuronal development and a potential therapeutic target for neurological disorders linked to iron dysregulation.

Project description:Postnatal brain neurogenesis in mammals is believed to be restricted to rare germinative remnants of the neuroepithelium. In this study, we discovered that, in the postnatal brain, a subset of embryonically derived progenitors is present in meningeal substructures. These cells migrate from the meningeal substructures to the retrosplenial and visual motor cortex and differentiate into (electrically) functional integrated neurons. Lineage tracing analysis revealed that this subset of neural progenitors originate largely from PDGFR+ cells. PDGFR-derived cells differentiate mostly into Satb2+ neurons in cortical layers I-IV. Thus, a reservoir of embryonically derived progenitors in the meninges contributes to postnatal cerebral cortical neurogenesis.

Project description:Experience governs neurogenesis from radial-glial neural stem cells (RGLs) in the adult hippocampus to support memory. Transcription factors in RGLs integrate physiological signals to dictate quiescence-activation decisions and self-renewal divisions. Whereas asymmetric RGL self-renewal drives neurogenesis during favorable conditions, symmetric divisions prevent premature neurogenesis during unfavorable conditions while amplifying RGLs to anticipate neurogenic demands when conditions become favorable. Here, we show that the transcription factor Kruppel-like factor 9 (Klf9) is enriched in quiescent RGLs and inducible, bidirectional modulation of Klf9 biases RGL quiescence-activation decisions. Clonal lineage tracing and longitudinal intravital two-photon imaging of RGLs following cell-autonomous Klf9 deletion directly demonstrated increased symmetric self-renewal. In vivo translational profiling of RGLs identified a Klf9-dependent blueprint for genetic and metabolic programs instructing RGL quiescence and expansion. Thus, experience dependent regulation of Klf9 in RGLs may ensure self-preservation of neural stem cells while anticipating future demands for neurogenesis and astrogenesis to support hippocampal functions.

Project description:Physical exercise stimulates adult hippocampal neurogenesis in mammals, and is considered a relevant strategy for preventing age-related cognitive decline in aging humans. However, its mechanism is controversial. Here, by investigating microRNAs (miRNAs) and their downstream pathways, we uncover that downregulation of miR-135a-5p mediates exercise-induced proliferation of adult NPCs in adult neurogenesis in the mouse hippocampus, likely by activation of phosphatidylinositol (IP3) signaling. Specifically, while overexpression of miR-135 prevents exercise-induced proliferation in the adult mouse hippocampus in vivo and in NPCs in vitro, its inhibition activates NPCs proliferation in resting and aged mice. Label free proteomics and bioinformatics analysis identifies 11 potential targets of miR-135 in NPCs, several of them involved in phosphatidylinositol signaling. Thus, miR-135a is key in mediating exercise-induced adult neurogenesis and opens intriguing perspectives toward the therapeutic exploitation of miR-135 to delay or prevent pathological brain ageing.Physical exercise stimulates adult hippocampal neurogenesis in mammals, and is considered a relevant strategy for preventing age-related cognitive decline in aging humans.

Project description:Neural progenitor cells (aNPCs) ensure lifelong neurogenesis in the mammalian hippocampus. Proper regulation of aNPC fate entails important implications for brain plasticity and healthy aging. Piwi proteins and the small noncoding RNAs interacting with them (piRNAs) are best known in gonads as repressors of transposons. Here, we show that Piwil2 (Mili) and piRNAs are abundant in aNPCs of the postnatal mouse hippocampus and demonstrate that this pathway is essential for proper neurogenesis. Particularly, depleting the piRNA pathway in aNPCs impaired neurogenesis while increasing senescence and the generation of reactive glia. Moreover, depletion of the piRNA pathway primarily elevated 5S ribosomal RNA, SINEB1 and mRNAs encoding ribosomal proteins and regulators of translation, resulting in higher polysome density and protein synthesis upon differentiation. Our results provide evidence of an essential role for the piRNA pathway in maintaining homeostasis to sustain neural stem cell fate, underpinning its possible involvement in brain plasticity and successful aging.

Project description:Adult neural progenitor cells (aNPCs) ensure lifelong neurogenesis in the mammalian hippocampus. Proper regulation of aNPC fate has thus important implications for brain plasticity and healthy aging. Piwi proteins and the small noncoding RNAs interacting with them (piRNAs) have been proposed to control memory and anxiety, but the mechanism remains elusive. Here, we show that Piwil2 (Mili) is essential for proper neurogenesis in the postnatal mouse hippocampus. RNA sequencing of aNPCs and their differentiated progeny reveal that Mili and piRNAs are dynamically expressed in neurogenesis. Depletion of Mili and piRNAs in the adult hippocampus impairs aNPC differentiation toward a neural fate, induces senescence, and generates reactive glia. Transcripts modulated upon Mili depletion bear sequences complementary or homologous to piRNAs and include repetitive elements and mRNAs encoding essential proteins for proper neurogenesis. Our results provide evidence of a critical role for Mili in maintaining fitness and proper fate of aNPCs, underpinning a possible involvement of the piRNA pathway in brain plasticity and successful aging.
