10F125 O-07 Neuregulinβ1 enhances expression of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors via PI3K/MAPK pathways in the major pelvic ganglion neurons Han-Gyu Kim, Choong-Ku Lee and Seong-Woo Jeong Department of Physiology, Yonsei University Wonju College of Medicine, Republic of Korea Neuregulin (Nrg) is a growth factor which binds to the ErbB family of receptor tyrosine kinase and is expressed in the central and peripheral neurons to regulate various functions including development, cell survival, and gene expression. Among different products of the Nrg genes, Nrg1 is known to contain acetylcholine receptor inducing activity (so called ARIA) and thus regulate expression of nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAchR) at central synapse and neuromuscular junctions. Here, we tested whether Nrg1 signaling regulates expression of nAchR in autonomic major pelvic ganglion (MPG) containing both sympathetic and parasympathetic neurons. First of all, conventional RT-PCR analysis revealed that MPG neurons endogenously express Nrg1 comprising Type I and Type III, and ErbB2/ErbB3 with lack of ErbB4. When the MPG neurons were incubated with NRG1-β1 (5 nM) for 6 hr in culture after dissociation, the nAchR α3 and β4 subunits were 1.7-fold increased as revealed by real-time PCR and Western blotting analyses. Consistent with the molecular data, patch-clamp studies showed that NRG1-β1 significantly enhanced nAchR currents in both types of the MPG neurons. In contrast, NRG1-β1 failed to alter voltage-gated T- and N-type calcium currents. Unlike NRG1-β1, other trophic factors (NRG1-α1, NGF and CNTF) had no effects on nAchR currents. NRG1-β1-induced increase in nAchR currents was blocked by AG825, an ErbB2 inhibitor, LY294002 and wortmanin, specific inhibitors of PI3K, and U0126, a specific inhibitor of MEK1/2 kinases. Taken together, these data suggest that Nrg1-β1 up-regulates nAchR via PI3K and MAPK signalling pathways in the autonomic MPG neurons and thus may play a role in regulation of excitatory synaptic transmission.

Cerebellar Purkinje cells (PCs) are key to a variety of motor- and learning-related behavior by integrating multimodal afferent inputs and taking up the sole output of the cerebellar cortex. PCs are known to generate high-frequency action potentials. The pattern and rate of firing are under the control of both synaptic input and intrinsic ion channels that allow the neurons to fire spontaneously in the absence of synaptic input. Intrinsic membrane excitability determines the input-output relationship of neurons and therefore governs the functions of neural circuits. Cerebellar vermis consists of ten lobules (lobule I-X), and each lobule has different function. However, lobule-specific difference of electrophysiological properties of PC is incompletely understood. To address this problem we performed a systematic study of PC spiking patterns from different lobes (lobules III, IV, V vs. X). Using patch clamp technique, passive and active properties of PC were evaluated in slices prepared from rats (P22-24). Two types of firing patterns were identified in response to depolarizing current injections in PCs of lobules III, IV, and V; Tonic-firing showing Na+ spikes at regular intervals throughout the current pulse (71.4%), and Complex-bursting showing both Na+ spikes and Ca2+-Na+ spikes (28.6%). In contrast PCs in vestibulocerebellum (lobule X) exhibited four types of firing patterns; Tonic-firing (37.9%), Complex-bursting (6.9%), delayed-firing showing a delayed onset of firing in response to current injections (27.6%), and initial bursting showing short firing of a few action potentials (27.6%). This difference in firing patterns probably contributes to lobule-specific processing of input-output relationship.

Baek, Heung Sik Na Neuroscience Research Institute and Department of Physiology, Korea University College of Medicine, 126-1 Anam-dong 5 Ga, Sungbuk-Gu, Seoul, 136-705, Korea Gastrin-releasing peptide receptor (GRPR) has been suggested as an itchspecific gene in the spinal cord (Sun et al., Nature, 2009). They described that selective ablation of GRPR-expressing lamina I neurons led to deficits in itchrelated scratching behaviors without any effects on pain behaviors including nerve injury-induced mechanical allodynia. It has been known that two types of mechanical allodynia, such as static and dynamic allodynia, can be detectable in neuropathic patients, and may be mediated by distinct mechanisms. In the present study, we investigated the role of spinal GRPR in each of static and dynamic allodynia using both rat- and mouse-tail models of neuropathic pain. Bombesin-saporin (bombesin-sap) was administered intrathecally to ablate spinal GRPR-expressing neurons. Scratching behaviors evoked by pruritogenic agents, such as serotonin and chloroquine, and physiological pain behaviors were analyzed before nerve injury. Static or dynamic allodynia was assessed by the application of von Frey filaments to the tail or brushing the tail with a filament, respectively. RC3095, a GRPR antagonist, was given intrathecally to see its effects on static and dynamic allodynia in neuropathic rats. Bombesinsap treatment resulted in reduction of GRPR-immunoreactive cells in lamina I of spinal dorsal horn and scratching deficits. Physiological pain behaviors of these animals were not different from those of control animals. Following the partial injury of tail-innervating nerves, animals treated with bombesin-sap exhibited comparable dynamic allodynia to control one. However, they failed to manifest static allodynia during the entire experimental period. In addition, RC3095 relieved static, but not dynamic, allodynia. These findings suggest that spinal GRPR mediates nerve injury-induced static mechanical allodynia as well as itching sensation in normal state.

The aim of present study was to observe temporal changes of the long-term potentiation (LTP), a synaptic model of memory, in local neural circuits of the cortex and hippocampus following unilateral labyrinthectomy (UL). The field excitatory postsynaptic potential (fEPSP) was recorded using 64 multi-extracellular recording system in the layer 4 of cortical slice and CA1 field of hippocampal slices removed from rats at 24 hours, 1 week, and 1 month following surgical UL. Theta burst stimulation applied to the local neural circuits of insular cortical or hippocampal slices to elicit the induction of LTP. Compared with sham animals, there was a significant suppression of LTP induction in the hippocampal slice at 24 hours after UL. Especially, the suppression of LTP induction was more prominent on the contralateral than ipsilateral side of the hippocampus to UL. The degree of LTP induction was similar with dose of control animals at 1 week and 1 month following UL. On the contrary, there was minimal changes of LTP at 24 hours but marked reduction of LTP induction 1 weeks after UL compared with sham animals. Asymmetry of LTP induction at bilateral insular cortex was noted 1 month after UL. These data suggest that the synaptic plasticity at synaptic level in the hippocampus and insular cortex is significantly affected in course of vestibular compensation following unilateral dysfunction of the vestibular endorgans.

Increasing evidence supports the notion that spinal cord microglia activation plays a causal role in the development of neuropathic pain after peripheral nerve injury, yet the mechanisms for microglia activation remain elusive. Here, we provide evidence that NADPH oxidase 2 (Nox2)-derived ROS production plays a critical role in nerve injury-induced spinal cord microglia activation and subsequent pain hypersensitivity. Nox2 expression was induced in dorsal horn microglia immediately after L5 spinal nerve transection (SNT). Studies using Nox2-deficient mice show that Nox2 is required for SNT-induced ROS generation, microglia activation, and proinflammatory cytokine expression in the spinal cord. SNT-induced mechanical allodynia and thermal hyperalgesia were similarly attenuated in Nox2-deficient mice. In addition, reducing microglial ROS level via intrathecal sulforaphane administration attenuated mechanical allodynia and thermal hyperalgesia in SNT-injured mice. Sulforaphane also inhibited SNT-induced proinflammatory gene expression in microglia and studies using primary microglia indicate that ROS generation is required for proinflammatory gene expression in microglia. These studies delineate a pathway involving nerve damage leading to microglial Nox2generated ROS resulting in the expression of proinflammatory cytokines that are involved in the initiation of central sensitization and neuropathic pain.

Neuronal precursor cells (NPCs) can survive, proliferate and differentiate into neurons and astrocytes in growth factor (GF)-rich condition including epidermal growth factor (EGF) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF). Withdrawal of these GFs induced apoptotic cell death. Although Jak3 inhibition might be associated with cell differentiation, the role of JAK3 on neuronal survival is not elucidated. Mouse embryo NPCs were obtained from E13 mice and cultured in DMEM media without GFs. In GF-depleted condition, NPCs died as apoptotic death. Here, we examined whether Jak3 inhibition protect GF-depleted cell death. The Jak3 inhibitors (1-10 uM) including WHIP154, WHIP131 and WHIP97 notably protected the NPCs in serum-depleted condition and even in DMEM condition. However, WHIP258, a negative control did not showed the survival effect. The survived NPCs maintained a prominent proliferative capacity for more than 5 days. Interestingly, BrdU, Ki67 and Nestin(+) cells survived in the GF deprivation media and also the NPCs differentiated into neurons and astrocytes. Jak3 inhibitors, but not Jak2 inhibitor AG490, increased the adhesion molecule expression such as L1, N-cadherin and NCAM. GF deprivation increased the expression of Bcl-xL/S which is a dominant inhibitor of Bcl-2, an anti-apoptosis factor. Jak3 inhibitor suppressed the expression of Bcl-xL/S. In conclusions, Jak3 inhibition plays a potent protective role against GF-depleted apoptotic NPC death.
