RESUMEN

Studies on rodents and nonhuman primates suggest that exposure to anesthetics, particularly in the young brain, is associated with neuronal apoptosis as well as hippocampal­dependent cognitive dysfunction. Disruption of the development of dentate gyrus may play an important role in anesthetics­induced neurotoxicity. However, the anesthetics triggered molecular events in the dentate gyrus of the developing brain are poorly understood. By integrating two independent data sets obtained from miRNA­seq and mRNA­seq respectively, this study aims to profile the network of miRNA and potential target genes, as well as relevant events occurring in the dentate gyrus of isoflurane exposed 7­day­old mice. We found that a single four hours exposure to isoflurane yielded 1059 pairs of differently expressed miRNAs/target genes in the dentate gyrus. Gene ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes enrichment analysis further indicates that dysregulated miRNAs/target genes have far­reaching effects on the cellular pathophysiological events, such as cell apoptosis, axon development, and synaptic transmission. Our results would greatly broaden our functional understanding of the role of miRNA/target gene in the context of anesthetics­induced neurotoxicity.

RESUMEN

In temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), abnormal axon guidance and synapse formation lead to sprouting of mossy fibers in the hippocampus, which is one of the most consistent pathological findings in patients and animal models with TLE. Glypican 4 (Gpc4) belongs to the heparan sulfate proteoglycan family, which play an important role in axon guidance and excitatory synapse formation. However, the role of Gpc4 in the development of mossy fibers sprouting (MFS) and its underlying mechanism remain unknown. Using a pilocarpine-induced mice model of epilepsy, we showed that Gpc4 expression was significantly increased in the stratum granulosum of the dentate gyrus at 1 week after status epilepticus (SE). Using Gpc4 overexpression or Gpc4 shRNA lentivirus to regulate the Gpc4 level in the dentate gyrus, increased or decreased levels of netrin-1, SynI, PSD-95, and Timm score were observed in the dentate gyrus, indicating a crucial role of Gpc4 in modulating the development of functional MFS. The observed effects of Gpc4 on MFS were significantly antagonized when mice were treated with L-leucine or rapamycin, an agonist or antagonist of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signal, respectively, demonstrating that mTOR pathway is an essential requirement for Gpc4-regulated MFS. Additionally, the attenuated spontaneous recurrent seizures (SRSs) were observed during chronic stage of the disease by suppressing the Gpc4 expression after SE. Altogether, our findings demonstrate a novel control of neuronal Gpc4 on the development of MFS through the mTOR pathway after pilocarpine-induced SE. Our results also strongly suggest that Gpc4 may serve as a promising target for antiepileptic studies.
