    Hippocampal pyramidal neurons exhibit diverse spike patterns and gene expression profiles. However, their relationships with single neurons are not fully understood. In this study, we designed an electrophysiology-based experimental procedure to identify gene expression profiles using RNA sequencing of single hippocampal pyramidal neurons whose spike patterns were recorded in living mice. This technique involves a sequence of experiments consisting of in vivo juxtacellular recording and labeling, brain slicing, cell collection, and transcriptome analysis. We demonstrated that the expression levels of a subset of genes in individual hippocampal pyramidal neurons were significantly correlated with their spike burstiness, submillisecond-level spike rise times or spike rates, directly measured by in vivo electrophysiological recordings. Because this methodological approach can be applied across a wide range of brain regions, it is expected to contribute to studies on various neuronal heterogeneities to understand how physiological spike patterns are associated with gene expression profiles.

    Abstract In the central nervous system, astrocytes enable appropriate synapse function through glutamate clearance from the synaptic cleft; however, it remains unclear how astrocytic glutamate transporters function at peri-synaptic contact. Here, we report that Down syndrome cell adhesion molecule (DSCAM) in Purkinje cells controls synapse formation and function in the developing cerebellum. Dscam-mutant mice show defects in CF synapse translocation as is observed in loss of function mutations in the astrocytic glutamate transporter GLAST expressed in Bergmann glia. These mice show impaired glutamate clearance and the delocalization of GLAST away from the cleft of parallel fibre (PF) synapse. GLAST complexes with the extracellular domain of DSCAM. Riluzole, as an activator of GLAST-mediated uptake, rescues the proximal impairment in CF synapse formation in Purkinje cell-selective Dscam-deficient mice. DSCAM is required for motor learning, but not gross motor coordination. In conclusion, the intercellular association of synaptic and astrocyte proteins is important for synapse formation and function in neural transmission.

    Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by dopaminergic (DAergic) neuronal loss in the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc), resulting from α-synuclein (αSyn) toxicity. We previously reported that αSyn oligomerization and toxicity are regulated by the fatty-acid binding protein 3 (FABP3), and the therapeutic effects of the FABP3 ligand, MF1, was successfully demonstrated in PD models. Here, we developed a novel and potent ligand, HY-11-9, which has a higher affinity for FABP3 (Kd = 11.7 ± 8.8) than MF1 (Kd = 302.8 ± 130.3). We also investigated whether the FABP3 ligand can ameliorate neuropathological deterioration after the onset of disease in 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-induced Parkinsonism. Motor deficits were observed two weeks after MPTP treatment. Notably, oral administration of HY-11-9 (0.03 mg/kg) improved motor deficits in both beam-walking and rotarod tasks, whereas MF1 failed to improve the motor deficits in both tasks. Consistent with the behavioral tasks, HY-11-9 recovered dopamine neurons from MPTP toxicity in the substantia nigra and ventral tegmental areas. Furthermore, HY-11-9 reduced the accumulation of phosphorylated-serine129-α-synuclein (pS129-αSyn) and colocalization with FABP3 in tyrosine hydroxylase (TH)-positive DA neurons in the PD mouse model. Overall, HY-11-9 significantly improved MPTP-induced behavioral and neuropathological deterioration, suggesting that it may be a potential candidate for PD therapy.

    Autism susceptibility candidate 2 (AUTS2), a risk gene for autism spectrum disorders (ASDs), is implicated in telencephalon development. Because AUTS2 is also expressed in the cerebellum where defects have been linked to ASDs, we investigated AUTS2 functions in the cerebellum. AUTS2 is specifically localized in Purkinje cells (PCs) and Golgi cells during postnatal development. Auts2 conditional knockout (cKO) mice exhibited smaller and deformed cerebella containing immature-shaped PCs with reduced expression of Cacna1a. Auts2 cKO and knock-down experiments implicated AUTS2 participation in elimination and translocation of climbing fiber synapses and restriction of parallel fiber synapse numbers. Auts2 cKO mice exhibited behavioral impairments in motor learning and vocal communications. Because Cacna1a is known to regulate synapse development in PCs, it suggests that AUTS2 is required for PC maturation to elicit normal development of PC synapses and thus the impairment of AUTS2 may cause cerebellar dysfunction related to psychiatric illnesses such as ASDs.

    For normal neurogenesis and circuit formation, delamination of differentiating neurons from the proliferative zone must be precisely controlled; however, the regulatory mechanisms underlying cell attachment are poorly understood. Here, we show that Down syndrome cell adhesion molecule (DSCAM) controls neuronal delamination by local suppression of the RapGEF2–Rap1–N-cadherin cascade at the apical endfeet in the dorsal midbrain. <italic>Dscam</italic> transcripts were expressed in differentiating neurons, and DSCAM protein accumulated at the distal part of the apical endfeet. Cre-<italic>loxP</italic>–based neuronal labeling revealed that <italic>Dscam</italic> knockdown impaired endfeet detachment from ventricles. DSCAM associated with RapGEF2 to inactivate Rap1, whose activity is required for membrane localization of N-cadherin. Correspondingly, <italic>Dscam</italic> knockdown increased N-cadherin localization and ventricular attachment area at the endfeet. Furthermore, excessive endfeet attachment by <italic>Dscam</italic> knockdown was restored by co-knockdown of <italic>RapGEF2</italic> or <italic>N-cadherin</italic>. Our findings shed light on the molecular mechanism that regulates a critical step in early neuronal development.

    The layer structure has been intensively characterized in the developing neocortex and cerebellum based on the various molecular markers. However, as to the developing dorsal midbrain, comprehensive analyses have not been intensely carried out, and thus, the name as well as the definition of each layer is not commonly shared. Here, we redefined the three layers, such as the ventricular zone, intermediate zone and marginal zone, based on various markers for proliferation and differentiation in embryonic dorsal midbrain. Biphasic Ki67 expression defines the classical VZ, in which there is clear separation of the mitotic and interphase zones. Next, we mapped the distribution of immature neurons to the defined layers, based on markers for glutamatergic and GABAergic lineage. Interestingly, Tbr2 and Neurog2 were expressed in the postmitotic neurons. We also report that active (phosphorylated) JNK is a useful marker to demarcate layers during the embryonic stage. Finally, we validated the final arrival layers of the migratory glutamatergic and GABAergic neurons. These results form a foundation for analyses of brain development, especially in the proliferation and migration of excitatory and inhibitory neurons in the dorsal midbrain.

    The hallmark of higher-order brain functions is the ability to integrate and associate diverse sets of information in a flexible manner. Thus, fundamental knowledge about the mechanisms underlying of information in the brain can be obtained by examining the neural mechanisms involved in the generation of an appropriate motor command based on perceived sensory signals. In this review article, we have focused on the involvement of the neuronal networks centered at the lateral aspect of the frontal cortex in the process of motor selection and motor planning based on visual signals. We have initially discussed the role of the lateral prefrontal cortex in integrating multiple sets of visual signals to select a reach target and the participation of the premotor cortex in retrieving and integrating diverse sets of motor information, such as where should one reach out or which arm is to be used. Next, based on the results of the studies on ideomotor apraxia, we have hypothesized that there are at least 2 distinct levels of neural representation (virtual level and physical level). We have reviewed the evidence supporting the operation of 2 distinct classes of neuronal activities corresponding to these 2 levels. In conclusion, we propose that the frontal cortex initially processes information across sensory and motor domains at the virtual level to generate information about a forthcoming motor action (virtual action plan) and that this information is subsequently transformed into a motor command, such as muscle activity or movement direction, for an actual body movement at the physical level (physical motor plan). This proposed framework may be useful for explaining the diverse clinical conditions caused by brain lesions as well as for clarifying the neural mechanisms underlying the integration of perception and action.

    これまでの解析で、中脳神経細胞は DSCAM/RapGEF2/Rap1という共通の分子カスケードを細胞移動開始に必要とすることを明らかにしてきた。本研究課題では、DSCAMによる、脳室面からの脱上皮化がどのような分子機序によりなされるかについて解析をおこなった。これまでの研究において、中脳神経細胞が生み出される胎生期の半ばE13.5において、脳室面離脱時に形成される神経細胞の形態変化および終足の退縮が、Dscamにより制御されることを新規に明らかにした。またDSCAMの機能の下流で、RapGEF2/Rap1が不活化し、それによりN-cadherinの不安定化すること、接着面の N-cadherinが減少すること等が、神経細胞の脳室面離脱に必要であることが明らかとなった。これらの結果については、現在論文を投稿し、リバイス中である。また、RapGEF2はRapGEF6と重複する機能を有することが示唆されていたが、中脳神経細胞では、その局在を異にしており、機能的差異があることが新たに示唆された。さらに、RapGEF2とDSCAMは、膜分子の裏打ちとして機能するMAGI1と相互作用して3者複合体を形成し、MAGIの結合がRapGEF2の活性制御に重要であることを見出している。今後は、今後はDSCAMの神経細胞移動時の接着制御がどのような分子基盤により制御されているかを検証してゆく。

    The midbrain is a critical region that controls cognitive, emotional, and motor functions. However, the developmental mechanisms of neurons in the midbrain are still unclear. Many CNS cells undergo cell migration after differentiation in the ventricular surface and other areas since their product's location differs from the site where they are located and function. This study aims to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of neuronal migration using the midbrain, which develops during the earliest stages of evolution, as a model system. We have summarized the results of our studies on the migration patterns of mesencephalic neurons and elucidated the molecular mechanisms that control the de-epithelialization of the ventricular surface immediately after differentiation, which occurs at the beginning of neuronal migration by using tissue staining and time-lapse techniques. These results were summarized in a paper and published.

    In response to extracellular and intracellular signals, cell exhibits a polarized morphology with adhering neighboring cells and extracellular matrix. Cell polarization is a fundamental process that makes cells enable to exert specific physiological roles in tissues. The understanding for the molecular mechanisms by which cell polarization isregulated had remained largely unknown. Our researches revealed signaling networks for cellular polarization and its maintenance in migrating cells and neurons.

    It is essential to understand the property of neural population consisting of the brain and the constitution of neural network in familiarization with the variety of brain function and the nerve disease. However, in the higher brain function including the mood and motor control, it still lacks the global analysis to reveal what kinds of neuronal populations showing the unique gene expression patterns interplay with several neuronal populations using what molecular mechanisms, and which neural function was generated. In this study, I analyzed the gene expression pattern in the globus pallidus, as an output device of the basal ganglia mediated mood and motor control.

    The brain consists of the remarkably fine neural circuits. This circuits are made of axons, and CRMP-2 previously had been identified as a key molecule in axon formation. I analyzed the functional meaning of CRMP-2 in axon formation, and obtained the following results : 1) CRMP-2 regulates anterograde TrkB transport in axon through the association with Slp1 and Rab27. 2) CRMP-2 binds directly to cytoplasmic dynein, a motor protein of retrograde transport, and negatively regulates its function. These results suggest that CRMP-2 play a role in axon formation through regulating the molecular transport in axon.

    膵導管細胞は全身の上皮膜中で、最も高い濃度の重炭酸イオン(HCO_3^-:~125mM)を含むアルカリを分泌する。これまでの我々自身の研究で、このアルカリ分泌には膵導管細胞管腔膜に発現するCFTR(Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane conductance Regulator)クロライド(Cl^-)チャネルとSLC(Solute Carrier)26輸送体の働きが重要であることを明らかにしてきた。特にSLC26陰イオン交換輸送体は、CFTRが導管細胞管腔内に分泌したCl^-を吸収し、交換にHCO_3^-を分泌することで膵液中の高いHCO_3^-濃度維持に働いている。本研究では、膵導管細胞における重炭酸イオン輸送調節機構を明らかにするために、SLC26輸送体の細胞内STAS(Sulfate Transporter Anti-Sigma factor antagonist)ドメインに結合する新規蛋白の同定を試みた。GSTタグを付加したヒトSLC26A6 STASドメインをベイトにして、ヒト膵癌細胞株Capan-1の細胞溶解液中に存在するSTAS結合新規蛋白をpull down法で同定した。その結果、guanine nucleotide exchange factor(GEF)ドメインを持つGEF蛋白及びGTPase Activating Protein(GAP)を持つGAP蛋白が同定された。これらの蛋白はA6-STASドメインと結合することが免疫沈降法で確認され、またこれらの蛋白と全長のSLC26A6をCOS7細胞に共発現させるとGEF蛋白はSLC26A6の陰イオン交換輸送活性を活性化し、反対にGAP蛋白はSLC26A6の陰イオン交換輸送活性を抑制することが確認された。SLC26輸送体ファミリー蛋白は、すべてのisoformが細胞内STASドメインを有しているが、SLC26輸送体はこれらのGEFやGAP蛋白により正又は負に活性制御を受けている可能性が明らかとなった。

    Our project aimed at examining the molecular mechanisms underlying establishment and maintenance of neuronal polarity. We found that GSK-3β regulates neuronal polarity through the phosphorylation of CRMP-2. CRMP-2 complex directly links Kinesin-1 motor, and this association is required for the anterograde transport of signaling molecules and polarity related proteins-containing vesicles.

    脳神経系は極めて精巧な神経回路網を有する。このような神経回路網の形成には、軸索と樹状突起という2つの異なる神経突起が複雑にシナプスを形成することで機能している。しかしながらこれらの突起の形成メカニズムについては不明な点が多い。以前私はcollapsin response mediator protein-2(CRMP-2)が軸索の伸長や退縮に関与することを明らかにしてきた。さらに近年、CRMP-2が軸索/樹状突起の運命決定を担い、極性形成や軸索伸長に重要な役割を果たすことが提唱されている。最近私はCRMP-2がsynaptotagmin-like protein 1 (Slp1)と結合することを明らかにした。Slp1はRab27と結合し、小胞輸送に関与することが示唆されている。我々はCRMP-2が、Slp/Rab27Bと複合体を形成することを明らかにした。Slp1は神経成長因子の受容体であるTrkBと共局在し、Slp1/Rab27Bと複合体を形成することが示唆された。このTrkB-Slp1/Rab27の結合は、TrkBの細胞内領域とSlp1のC末端側との直接結合を介していた。また、TrkBの細胞内領域と相同性のある一部の成長因子受容体もSlp1と結合することを見出した。免疫沈降実験の結果、Slp1がCRMP-2を介して、KIF5とKLCと結合していることが示された。タイムラプス法でTrkB-mCherryの動きを確認すると、軸索において順行性、逆行性の両方の動きが観察された。また、Slp1やCRMP-2,KLCの機能をsiRNA干渉法にて阻害すると、TrkB-mCherryの順行性輸送が障害された。以上の結果は、極性形成を制御するCRMP-2は様々な分子と相互作用し、積み荷受容体として細胞内輸送を制御している事が明らかとなった。

    Cell polarization is an essential step for cellular functions, but the underlying mechanisms to establish and maintain cell polarity are not fully understood. We tried to clarify the signal transduction mechanisms controlling cell polarization by the use of cell migration and neuronal axon/dendrite determination as model systems. 1. Identification of extracellular signals modulating neuronal polarity and following signaling pathways. Extracellular signals such as laminin induced the production of PIP3, inactivation of GSK-3β, and resultant activation of CRMP-2. Active CRMP-2 bound to tubulin, Sra-1, and Numb, and regulated tubulin polymerization, actin remodeling, and L1 endocytosis at growth cone, which contributed to the axon elongation and neuronal axon/dendrite determination. In addition, Par complex composed of Par-3, Pare and aPKC modulated the Rac activity through Rac GEF (Tiam1/Tiam2) to establish neuronal polarity and front-rear polarity of migrating cells. 2. Analysis of signaling pathways underlying cell migration During establishment and maintenance of front-rear polarity in cell migration, Rac/IAGAP1 regulated dynamics of both actin and microtubules through APC/CLIP-170. Rho/Rho-kinase inhibited Par complex formation and adjusted the Rac activity properly both at the front and rear. 3. Role of molecular and vesicular traffic in cell polarization and migration CRMP-2 interacted with tubulin, Sra-1 and Slp1/TrkB, and transported them to the tip of axon as a “cargo receptor". Numb regulated integrin endocytosis at the front of migrating cell, which is supposed to be necessary for directional migration. 4. Analysis of signal networks by computer simulation The computational model for endothelial cell contraction (activation of myosin) suggested the existence of unidentified pathway for sustained cell contraction in silico, and the novel pathway mediated by iPLA2 was identified in vivo. The computational model for establishment of front-rear polarity of migrating cells by Rho family GTPases was developed.

    脳神経系は極めて精巧な神経回路網を有する。このような神経回路網の形成には、軸索と樹状突起という2つの異なる神経突起が複雑にシナプスを形成することで形成、機能している。しかしながらこれらの突起の形成メカニズムについては不明な点が多い。 以前私はcollapsin response mediator protein-2(CRMP-2)が軸索の伸長や退縮に関与することを明らかにしてきた。さらに近年、CRMP-2が軸索/樹状突起の運命決定を担い、極性形成や軸索伸長に重要な役割を果たすことが提唱されている。最近我々はCRMP-2が低分子量G蛋白質Rhoの標的蛋白質Rhoキナーゼによってリン酸化されると、チューブリンやNumbとの結合能を失うことを明らかにした。しかしActinとの結合にはリン酸化による影響は見られなかった。反発性軸索ガイダンス因子であるephrin-A5刺激による成長円錐の退縮時に、CRMP-2のリン酸化レベルの上昇が見られた。これらの結果は、成長円錐の退縮時にRhoキナーゼがCRMP-2をリン酸化し、CRMP-2とその結合分子との相互作用を制御することによりCRMP-2の機能を阻害していることを示唆している。CRMP-2はGSK-3βによってもリン酸化される。Rhoキナーゼと同様に、GSK-3βによるCRMP-2のリン酸化によってCRMP-2はチューブリンと結合しなくなり、不活性化されることも見出した。さらに、GSK-3βの上流にRasが存在していることが明らかとなった。Rasが活性化するとPI3-kinase/Akt/GSK-3βを介してCRMP-2のリン酸化を抑制し、従って軸索形成を促進することが明らかとなった。以上の結果から、極性形成を制御するCRMP-2は様々な分子と相互作用し、細胞外シグナル依存的にリン酸化され、その活性が制御されることが明らかとなった。

    脳神経系は極めて精巧な神経回路網を有する。ごく最近、神経回路網の形成を担う様々な細胞外神経軸索ガイダンス因子が同定されてきた。しかし、それらの下流でどのような細胞内シグナル伝達分子が成長円錐の運動とそれに伴う軸索のガイダンスの制御を行うのかはほとんど理解されていない。私はRhoキナーゼの新規脳内標的蛋白質CRMP-2を同定した。そして、Rhoキナーゼ特異的なCRMP-2のリン酸化や成長円錐の形態変化をモニターすることによって、細胞外シグナル依存的な成長円錐の退縮にRhoキナーゼが重要な役割を果たすことを証明した。本研究では神経回路形成におけるRhoキナーゼとCRMP-2の機能とその作用メカニズムを解明することを目的する。本年度の研究業績は以下の通りである。 1)成長円錐の退縮を引き起こす事で知られるephrin-A5刺激によりDRG neuronにおいてCRMP-2のリン酸化が上昇することが確認され、その成長円錐の退縮をRhoキナーゼによりリン酸化されるアミノ酸をアスパラギン酸に変換したCRMP-2変異体(リン酸化されたCRMP-2を模倣したもの)が抑制しうることが明らかとなった。 2)電子顕微鏡をもちいた解析の結果、CRMP-2はDRG neuronの成長円錐において、microtubulesの上やClathrin-coated pitの上に存在していることが明らかとなった。 3)CRMP-2のRhoキナーゼによるリン酸化サイトを特異的に認識する抗体で解析した結果、リン酸化型CRMP-2はmicrotubulesの上やclathrin-coated pitの上に存在していないことが明らかとなった。 以上の結果からRhoキナーゼによるCRMP-2のリン酸化は、microtubulesやClathrin-coated pitへの相互作用を介して細胞骨格系に関与している可能性が示唆された。 以上のことから、平成15年度の研究計画はほぼ達成されたものと考える。
