Hippocampal cholinergic neurostimulating peptide (HCNP), which induces acetylcholine synthesis, was purified from the soluble fraction of young adult rat hippocampus. This peptide also aligns at N-terminal region of 21kD precursor protein (HCNPpp: HCNP precursor protein) composed of 186 amino acids. Recently, we generated conditional knockout (KO) mice mediated with Cre-transgenic mice driven by CaMKII promoter. In this study, we performed proteomic analysis proteins extracted from hippocampus of homozygous conditional (Cre/+, fHCNPpp/fHCNPpp) and /or wild-type littermate at 12-weeks-old. As results, ten spots of proteins in 2D-DIGE image showed more than 1.1 folds quantitative alternations as absolute logarism value, between those mice. Of two spots, decreasing in HCNPpp (Cre/+, fHCNPpp/fHCNPpp), contained specific 9-amino acids of C-terminal domain of heat shock protein (HSP)-90 beta, and another spot, also decreasing in HCNPpp KO, contained specific 11-amino acids of N-terminal domain of alpha-crystaline B chain (CRYAB) in TOF/TOF/MS analysis. Western blotting also demonstrated the decrease of both HSP90-beta and CRYAB in hippocampus of HCNPpp KO (Cre/+, fHCNPpp/fHCNPpp) compared with wild-type littermate. Recent reports have showed that both HSP90-beta and CRYAB, heat shock proteins, may play a crucial role in folding and/or activating substrate proteins, suggesting molecular chaperons. Interestingly, previous literatures reported that the suppression of chaperons might be involved in pathogenesis of neurodegenative disease via the dysfunction of proteolytic process.

Manipulating differentiation of astrocyte was examined just by culturing on the star-like shaped nano patterns. The electron beam lithography and a polymer surface of the positive resist as the mask material, which have been originally developed for semiconductor processing, were directly applied to create this cellular patterning system in nano resolution. Rat primary astrocyte cultured in vitro usually extends in protoplasmic or radial shape on a flat surface. However, when cultured on the 30 micrometer square pattern overlapping with crossing lines of 100 nanometer width and 200 micrometer long, astrocyte adhered on the square pattern and extended along the line patterns with elongating processes like star shape. By connecting a number of these square-crossing line pattern set to form grid design, the star-like shaped astrocyte also formed cellular network along the pattern. Lucifer Yellow which was microinjected into a single cell laterally diffused to the adjacent cell, showing formation of gap junction in the astrocyte networks. Fluorescence immunostaining analyses quantitative RT-PCR experiments showed that culturing on the nano patterns increased GLT-1 expression, which is normally upregulated in star-shaped astrocyte in vivo or differentiated one by dbcAMP in vitro, in comparison with culturing on a flat glass surface. Thus, it was suggested that just changing cellular shape along the interface topology and/or mechanical stress accompanying with the shape change worked to regulate differentiation and function of astrocyte without applying biosignaling factors.

Autism is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by lack of social interaction and communication, obsessiveness, and repetitive behavior. Although it is reported that the prevalence of autism is about 1 to 2 per 1000 people in Japan, the number has been increased, recently. However, no treatment and prevention, even diagnosis for autism has been established, because little is known about the pathogenesis of autism. Recently, it is reported that the risk of autism is associated with density of serotonin transporter (SERT) at brain. So far, we have identified MARCKSL1 as an interactor with SERT. Then, we examine involvement of MARCKSL1 in SERT function. Here, we report about the change of intracellular localization of SERT by MARCKSL1 deletion mutants. Furthermore, we show that serotonin uptake ability as a SERT function is down-regulated by several MARCKSL1 deletion mutants.

The organization of functional subtypes of neurons shapes the basic structure of neocortical circuits. Our previous analysis revealed that in mouse layer 5, subcerebral projection neurons (SCPNs), which are a major pyramidal neuron subtype, are aligned radially to form columnar organization. These columnar units of SCPNs are located periodically in the tangential orientation in layer 5. Under specific visual stimulation, SCPNs in a single unit exhibited strongly correlated c-Fos expression, suggesting related functions. These observations suggest that layer 5 has a periodically-repeated functional micro-organization of SCPNs. To further understand the structure of this micro-organization, we are performing three-dimensional analyses. We label SCPNs with various makers, and make whole-brain samples transparent using the Scale method. Three-dimensional positions of SCPNs are obtained by two-photon microscopy and subjected to statistical analyses. We first labelled SCPNs by EGFP expression in the Crym-EGFP transgenic mice, and confirmed the columnar and periodic organization. However, in the Crym-EGFP mice, EGFP was expressed only in limited cortical areas. In addition, even in cortical areas where EGFP was expressed in SCPNs, typically only 50-80% of SCPNs expressed EGFPs. To investigate the micro-organization in wider cortical areas and with higher efficiency, we performed analyses of SCPNs labelled by retrograde-tracing. SCPNs were retrogradely-labelled by injection of tracers into the pons, and the whole brain data was obtained and analyzed by methods optimized for retrograde labeling. Our data indicated that retrogradely-labelled SCPNs showed strong columnar and periodic organization. Detailed analyses of the three-dimensional organization will be presented.
