Project description:Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a highly heterogeneous neurodevelopmental disorder that significantly jeopardizes the physical and mental well-being of children. Autism spectrum disorder results from a combination of environmental and genetic factors. Hyperandrogenic exposure during pregnancy increases their risk of developing autism. Nevertheless, the prenatal exposure to androgens affects offspring neurodevelopment and the underlying mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. In the present study, administration of excessive dihydrotestosterone (DHT) to pregnant mice was found to impair neuronal development and dendritic spine formation in offspring, inducing autism-like behaviors. Furthermore, through mRNA transcriptome sequencing technology, the key molecule Nr4a2 was identified during this process of change. Overexpression of Nr4a2 and treatment with amodiaquine (AQ) significantly improved the abnormal phenotypes in offspring caused by prenatal exposure to androgens. Overall, Nr4a2 emerges as a crucial molecule involved in the impairment of offspring neurodevelopment due to prenatal androgen exposure, which provides a new perspective for the in-depth study of the influencing factors and underlying mechanisms.

Project description:Prenatal exposure to synthetic corticosteroids can significantly alter postnatal development through changes in neurotransmitters, peptides and their receptors, and thus having long-lasting behavioral effects. Some of these changes have been observed in animal experiments, others also in humans prenatally exposed to synthetic corticosteroids. Here, we focused on transcriptomic changes within the ARC of rats prenatally exposed to either betamethasone or saline. The expression of transcriptome has been assessed by novel computational tools to determine complex changes that may have life-long effects on phenotype, i.e., behavior. Total of 18,094 unigenes were quantified in the hypothalamic ARC of P14 male and female rats prenatally exposed to betametasone used in this experiment. Out of these genes, Kyoto Encyclopedia for Genes and Genomes (http://www.genome.jp) selected 112 for the dopaminergic synapse, 75 for the GABAergic and 97 for the glutamatergic synapse. We further analyzed composition, topology and modulatory networks of the genomic fabric of the dopaminergic, GABAergic, and glutamatergic synapse (the transcriptome of the most interconnected and stably expressed gene network responsible for specific transmission). Finally we investigated the M-bM-^@M-^\transcriptomic landscapeM-bM-^@M-^] of the GSF in the ARC of P14 males (M) and females (F) prenatally (G15) exposed to betamethasone (B) or saline (S). We combined in one measure (PWR = Pair-Wise Relevance) expression levels, controls and coordination of all pairs that can be formed by synapse genes with the other synapse genes, higher PWRs indicating larger influence of that gene pair to the fabric modulation. We found that prenatal exposure to betamethasone caused sex-dependent changes in the dopaminergic/GABA/glutamatergic synapse genes:. In males, 10 dopaminergic (9%), 4 GABAergic (5%) and 5 glutamatergic synapse genes (5%) were down-regulated. While in females, 9 dopaminergic (8%), 3 GABAergic (4%) and 6 glutamatergic (6%) synapse genes were downregulated. The data indicate that in both sexes the dopaminergic synapse was the most affected. In contrast, in control animals, no significant differences between male and female were present in these synapse genes. Since the most noticeable transcritpomic changes were found in the transcriptome of DA glutamatergic synapse, we investigated the expression of tyrosine-hydroxylase (TH) NMDA receptor subunits in the ARC. The western blot analyses and immunohistochemistry confirmed the sex-specific differences between prenatally betamethasone-exposed and saline-exposed P15 rats. Accordingly to the changes in gene expression, prenatal exposure to synthetic corticosteroids was associated with postnatal changes in behavior and susceptibility to certain types of seizures. While we did not find any significant impairements in normal behavioral patterns (open field activity), there was a sex-specific change in the novel object recognition test. We found that behavioral lateralization in females is lost after prenatal betamethasone exposure and both male and female prenatally betamethasone exposed rats were avoiding novelty. This trait is similar to children with autism and suggests that certain elements of autistic behaviors can be present after prenatal exposure to synthetic corticosteroids. Additionally, there were changes in the search patterns in the Morris water maze as well as in the Barnes maze. In conclusion, our work is consistent with findings of profound reprogramming changes in the brain after prenatal corticosteroid exposure associated with alterations cognitive functions and seizure susceptibility. Two-sexes (M, F) x two-condition (B = betamethasone prenataly exposed vs S = saline prenataly exposed) experiment. Biological replicates: 4 MS, 4 FS, 4 MB, 4 FB.

Project description:Prenatal exposure to synthetic corticosteroids can significantly alter postnatal development through changes in neurotransmitters and their receptors, and thus having long-lasting behavioral effects. Some of these changes have been observed in animal experiments, others also in humans prenatally exposed to synthetic corticosteroids. Here, we focused on transcriptomic changes within the prefrontal cortex of female rats prenatally exposed to either betamethasone or saline. The transcriptome has been assessed by novel computational tools to determine complex changes that may have life-long effects on phenotype, i.e., behavior. We analyzed how composition, topology and modulatory networks of the genomic fabric of the dopaminergic, GABAergic, and glutamatergic synapse (the transcriptome of the most interconnected and stably expressed gene network responsible for specific transmission) are afected by the prenatal exposure to corticosteroids and postnatal ketamine-induced seizures. One sex (F) x two prenatal exposures (B = betamethasone, S = saline) x two postnatal treatments (K = ketamine, S = saline). Biological replicates: 4 FSS, 4 FBS, 4 FBK.

Project description:Maternal exposure to environmental contaminants during pregnancy poses a significant threat to a developing fetus, as these substances can easily cross the placenta and disrupt the neurodevelopment of offspring. Specifically, the hypothalamus is essential in the regulation of metabolism, notably during critical windows of development.An abnormal hormonal and inflammatory milieu during development can trigger persistent changes in the function of hypothalamic circuits, leading to long-lasting effects on the body’s energy homeostasis and metabolism. We recently demonstrated that gestational exposure to clinically relevant levels of benzene induces severe metabolic dysregulation in the offspring. Given the central role of the hypothalamus in metabolic control, we hypothesized that prenatal exposure to benzene impacts hypothalamic development, contributing to the adverse metabolic effects in the offspring. C57BL/6JB dams were exposed to benzene at 50 ppm in the inhalation chambers exclusively during pregnancy (from E0.5 to E19). Transcriptomic analysis of the exposed offspring at postnatal day 21 (P21) revealed hypothalamic changes in genes related to metabolic regulation, inflammation, and neurodevelopment exclusively in males. Moreover, the hypothalamus of prenatally benzene-exposed male offspring displayed alterations in orexigenic and anorexigenic projections, impairments in leptin signaling, and increased microgliosis. Additional exposure to benzene during lactation did not promote further microgliosis or astrogliosis in the offspring, while the high-fat diet (HFD) challenge in adulthood exacerbated glucose metabolism and hypothalamic inflammation in benzene-exposed offspring of both sexes. These findings reveal the persistent adverse effects of prenatal benzene exposure on hypothalamic circuits and neuroinflammation, predisposing the offspring to long-lasting metabolic health conditions.

Project description:In this study, we tested if miRNAs are altered in amygdala and ventral striatum as a consequence of prenatal ethanol exposure and/or social enrichment. miRNA samples from 72 male and female adolescent rats were analyzed by RNA-Seq analysis and Affymetrix miRNA arrays. Several miRNAs showed significant changes due to prenatal ethanol exposure or social enrichment in one or both brain regions. Some of the miRNA changes caused by ethanol were reversed by social enrichment. The top predicted gene targets of these miRNAs were mapped and subjected to pathway enrichment analysis. We also directly examined the evidence for modulation of target mRNAs in whole transcriptome microarray data from the same rats. Among the pathways most strongly affected were p53, CREB, Glutamate and GABA signaling. Together, our data suggest a number of novel epigenetic mechanisms for social enrichment to reverse the effects of ethanol exposure. A total of 48 samples were analyzed by small RNA-Sequencing using RNA purified from 2 brain regions (amygdala and ventral striatum) of postnatal day 42 Long Evans rats. 3 replicate sequencing runs were performed for each gender within 4 different treatment groups (prenatal ethanol or prenatal saline exposed; postnatal socially-enriched or non-enriched environment)
