    Notes: Abstract: Recent studies have shown that dopamine receptor agonists induce expression of Fos-like immunoreactivity in rat striatal neurons. The protooncogene c-fos belongs to a family of immediate early genes that are rapidly induced in fibroblasts by growth factors. In light of previous findings that several immediate early gene mRNAs that encode proven or putative transcription factors are differentially regulated by neuronal stimulation in vivo, we have examined the effect of dopaminergic agents on mRNA levels of several such genes using in situ hybridization and northern blot analysis. d-Amphetamine (2.5-10 mg/kg i.p.) causes a rapid but transient dose-dependent increase in zif268 and jun-B mRNA levels in striatum that was abolished by striatal 6-hydroxydopamine lesions or by pretreatment with the specific D1 receptor antagonist SCH-23390 but not by specific D2 receptor antagonists. Apomorphine, a dopamine agonist that acts at both D1 and D2 receptors, and SKF-38393, a specific D1 receptor agonist, produce similar mRNA changes in rats pretreated with either 6-hydroxydopamine or reserpine, whereas LY-171,555, a specific D2 receptor agonist, has no effect. Direct dopamine agonist effects on these immediate early gene mRNA levels are also blocked by D1 but not by D2 antagonists. We observed similar, although less robust, changes in c-fos and fos-B mRNA levels. These results demonstrate that striatal D1 dopamine receptors are coupled to activation of multiple transcription factor genes, including zif268 and jun-B as well as members of the fos family.

    Notes: Abstract: Recent studies have identified protein tyrosine phosphorylation as a major intracellular signaling pathway. However, little is known about regulation of this signaling pathway in neuronal systems. To help identify changes in levels of protein tyrosine phosphorylation in brain, we have utilized specific anti-phosphotyrosine antibodies to detect phosphotyrosine-containing proteins by immunoblotting techniques. We have found that electroconvulsive treatment induces a selective increase in tyrosine phosphorylation of a soluble 40-kDa protein. The rise is rapid and transient, reaching maximal levels at 1–2 min and returning to basal levels by 8 min. The phosphotyrosine-containing 40-kDa protein is most prominent in hippocampus, smaller in neocortex, and not detected in brainstem or cerebellum. A phosphotyrosine-containing 42-kDa protein present in several cell types has recently been identified as a serine/threonine phosphotransferase, referred to as microtubule-associated protein 2 kinase. Comparison of the levels of tyrosine phosphorylation of the 40-kDa protein and microtubule-associated protein 2 kinase activity during column chromatography of hippocampal extracts demonstrates that the phosphotyrosine-containing 40-kDa protein and microtubule-associated protein 2 co-purify. Moreover, the tyrosine phosphorylation of the 40-kDa protein and microtubule-associated protein 2 kinase activity are increased to a similar extent following electroconvulsive treatment. These findings suggest that the phosphotyrosine-containing 40-kDa protein identified in brain is closely related to microtubule-associated protein 2 kinase.

    Activation of arc, a Putative “Effector” Immediate Early Gene, by Cocaine in Rat Brain (1995)

    Notes: Abstract: As immediate early genes (IEGs) are thought to play a critical role in mediating stimulus-induced neuronal plasticity, several laboratories have characterized the IEG response induced by cocaine to help define the changes in gene expression that may underlie its long-lasting behavioral effects. Although activation of several transcription factor IEGs has been described, little is known about which “effector” IEGs, if any, are also induced. In the present study, we have examined whether cocaine administration affects expression of a recently identified “effector” IEG, referred to as arc (activity-regulated, cytoskeleton-associated). This IEG encodes a protein with homology to spectrin that appears to be associated with the actin cytoskeleton. Using in situ hybridization, we have found that systemic cocaine administration elicits a robust, transient rise in arc mRNA levels in striatum, which is suppressed by D1 dopamine receptor blockade, reserpine treatment, or striatal 6-hydroxydopamine lesions. D2 receptor antagonists triggered arc expression when administered alone. Immunohistochemical studies indicated that Arc protein induced by cocaine is expressed in neuronal cell bodies and dendrites. As Arc appears to be a component of the neuronal cytoskeleton, it may be involved in structural alterations underlying neuronal plasticity triggered by cocaine.

    Notes: Abstract: Recent studies have demonstrated that administration of an electroconvulsive shock produces a rapid and transient increase in tyrosyl phosphorylation of a ∼40-kDa protein in rat brain. Initial characterization of this protein's chromatographic properties indicated that it might be a member of a recently identified family of kinases, referred to as mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases, that are activated by tyrosyl phosphorylation. In the present study, we have used MAP kinase antisera to assess the identity of this protein. We have found that the ∼40-kDa phosphotyrosine-containing protein comigrates with p42 MAP kinase (p42mapk) and not with two other 44-kDa MAP kinase family members detected by these antisera. Western blots of proteins immunoprecipitated with MAP kinase antibodies confirm that p42mapk displays increased tyrosyl phosphorylation after an electroconvulsive stimulus. Chromatographic separation of hippocampal extracts indicates that MAP kinase activity elutes in parallel with p42mapk. Accordingly, these studies identify p42mapk as a tyrosyl kinase substrate that is activated by this stimulus and suggest that this form of MAP kinase may be selectively regulated by neuronal stimulation.

    Rapid Rise in Transcription Factor mRNAs in Rat Brain After Electroshock-Induced Seizures (1990)

    Notes: Abstract: Recent studies have demonstrated that several transcription factor genes are rapidly activated by neuronal stimulation. For example, we have found that prolonged and repeated seizure activity produced by administration of chemical convulsants induces a rapid and transient increase in mRNA levels of four immediate early genes in rat brain. These genes, zif/268, c-fos, c-jun, andjun-B, encode sequence specific DNA binding proteins thought to act as transcription regulatory factors. To ascertain whether a brief electrically induced seizure discharge of the type utilized in clinical electroconvulsive treatment is sufficient to induce a similar genomic response, we have examined the response of these mRNAs in rat brain following single and repeated electroshock-induced seizures. After electroshock, mRNA levels of each of these genes increase within 15 min, and all except cjun return to near baseline levels within 4 h. Although this response is most prominent in granule cell neurons of the hippocampus, increases are also apparent in neocortex and pyriform cortex. The rapid mRNA response persists in animals receiving a chronic electroshock protocol similar to that used in clinical electroconvulsive therapy. Intrahippocampal infusion of the sodium channel antagonist tetrodotoxin blocks hippocampal mRNA responses without blocking seizures, indicating a role for electrical excitation in the electroshockinduced mRNA response. By contrast, pretreatment with anticonvulsants or selective NMDA antagonists, which reduce seizure intensity and block hindlimb extension, fails to alter mRNA responses, suggesting that seizure induction, rather than spread, is linked to these mRNA responses. Because electroshock induces robust, highly reproducible mRNA responses, it may be useful to study the neuronal genomic response to stimulation.

    Notes: Abstract: Glutamate-induced glutathione depletion in immature embryonic cortical neurons has been shown to lead to oxidative stress and cell death. We have used this in vitro model to investigate the mechanism(s) by which free radicals induce neuronal degeneration. We find that glutathione depletion leads to hypercondensation and fragmentation of chromatin into spherical or irregular shapes, a morphologic signature of apoptosis. These morphologic changes are accompanied by laddering of DNA into multiple oligonucleosomal fragments and can be prevented by the antioxidants idebenone and butylated hydroxyanisole. Cell death induced by glutathione depletion can also be prevented by inhibitors of macromolecular synthesis. Taken together, these observations suggest that oxidative stress can induce apoptosis in neurons.

    Rapid Increases in Peptide Processing Enzyme Expression in Hippocampal Neurons (1993)

    Notes: Abstract: Recent studies have demonstrated that seizure activity causes a dramatic increase in neuropeptide expression in specific regions of the rat hippocampus. In this study we investigated the effect of electroconvulsive treatment (ECT) on the expression of three posttranslational processing enzymes involved in the production of many bioactive peptides from their inactive precursors. Peptidylglycine α-amidating monooxygenase (PAM) converts peptidylglycine substrates into α-amidated products and prohormone convertases 1 and 2 perform the tissue-specific endoproteolytic cleavage of many prohormones. After a single ECT, in situ hybridization demonstrated a rapid increase in the level of PAM mRNA in the dentate granule cells of the hippocampus, reaching peak levels between 1 and 4 h and then returning to near baseline levels within 24 h. Northern blot analysis confirmed the changes in PAM mRNA expression seen by using in situ hybridization. Similar rapid changes in PAM mRNA expression were seen after repeated ECT, suggesting that chronic ECT did not affect the regulation of PAM expression in the hippocampus. Immunohistochemical staining demonstrated an increase in PAM protein in the molecular layer of the dentate gyrus at 4 and 8 h after a single ECT. Based on in situ hybridization, levels of mRNA for the prohormone convertases 1 and 2 were also increased in dentate granule cells after a single ECT. Prohormone convertase 2 mRNA levels exhibited a slower response to ECT, not reaching maximal levels until 8 h after ECT. The response of the dentate granule cells of the hippocampus to ECT provides a model system for studying the rapid, coordinate regulation of peptide-processing enzymes.

    Notes: Abstract: Recent studies implicating dendritic protein synthesis in synaptic plasticity have focused attention on identifying components of the molecular machinery involved in processing dendritic RNA. Although Translin was originally identified as a protein capable of binding single-stranded DNA, subsequent studies have demonstrated that it also binds RNAin vitro. Because previous studies indicated that Translin-containing RNA/single-stranded DNA binding complexes are highly enriched in brain, we and others have proposed that it may be involved in dendritic RNA processing. To assess this possibility, we have conducted studies aimed at defining the localization of Translin and its partner protein, Trax, in brain. In situ hybridization studies demonstrated that both Translin and Trax are expressed in neurons with prominent staining apparent in cerebellar Purkinje cells and neuronal layers of the hippocampus. Subcellular fractionation studies demonstrated that both Translin and Trax are highly enriched in the cytoplasmic fraction compared with nuclear extracts. Furthermore, immunohistochemical studies with Translin antibodies revealed prominent staining in Purkinje neuron cell bodies that extends into proximal and distal dendrites. A similar pattern of somatodendritic localization was observed in hippocampal and neocortical pyramidal neurons. These findings demonstrate that Translin is expressed in neuronal dendrites and therefore support the hypothesis that the Translin/Trax complex may be involved in dendritic RNA processing.
