Salient 40 Hz sounds probe affective aversion and neural excitability

The human auditory system is not equally reactive to all frequencies of the audible spectrum. Emotional and behavioral reactions to loud or aversive acoustic features can vary from one individual to another, to the point that some exhibit exaggerated or even pathological responses to certain sounds. The neural mechanisms underlying these interindividual differences remain unclear. Whether distinct aversion profiles map onto neural excitability at the individual level needs to be tested. Here, we measured behavioral and EEG responses to click trains (from 10 to 250 Hz, spanning the roughness and pitch perceptual ranges) to test the hypothesis that interindividual variability in aversion to rough sounds is reflected in neural response differences between participants. Linking subjective aversion to 40 Hz steady-state EEG responses, we demonstrate that participants experiencing enhanced aversion to roughness also show stronger neural responses to this attribute. Interestingly, this pattern also correlates with inter-individual anxiety levels, suggesting that this personality trait might interact with subjective sensitivity and neural excitability to these sounds. These results support the idea that 40 Hz sounds can probe the excitability of non-canonical auditory systems involved in exogenous salience processing and aversive responses at the individual level. By linking subjective aversion to neural excitability, 40 Hz sounds provide neuromarkers relevant to a variety of pathological conditions, such as those featuring enhanced emotional sensitivity (hyperacusis, anxiety) or aberrant neural responses at 40 Hz (autism, schizophrenia).

Probing small ribosomal subunit RNA helix 45 acetylation across eukaryotic evolution

NAT10 is an essential enzyme that catalyzes the formation of N4-acetylcytidine (ac4C) in eukaryotic transfer RNA (tRNA) and 18S ribosomal RNA (rRNA). Recent studies in human cells suggested that rRNA acetylation is dependent on SNORD13, a non-canonical box C/D small nucleolar RNA (SNORD) predicted to base-pair with 18S rRNA via two antisense elements. However, the selectivity of SNORD13-dependent cytidine acetylation and its relationship to NAT10s essential function in pre-rRNA processing remain to be defined. Here, we used CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing to formally demonstrate that SNORD13 is required for acetylation of a single cytidine residue of human and zebrafish 18S rRNA. In-depth characterization revealed that SNORD13-dependent ac4C is dispensable for yeast or human cell growth, ribosome biogenesis, translation, and the development of multicellular metazoan model organisms. This loss of function analysis inspired a cross-evolutionary survey of the eukaryotic rRNA acetylation machinery that led to the characterization of many novel SNORD13 genes in phylogenetically-distant metazoans and more deeply rooted photosynthetic organisms. This includes an atypical SNORD13-like RNA in D. melanogaster which appears to guide ac4C to 18S rRNA helix 45 despite lacking one of the two rRNA antisense elements. Finally, we discover that C. elegans 18S rRNA is not acetylated despite the presence of an essential NAT10 homolog. Altogether, our findings shed light on the molecular mechanisms underlying SNORD13-mediated rRNA acetylation across the eukaryotic tree of life and raise new questions regarding the biological function and evolutionary persistence of this highly conserved rRNA base modification.

m6A is required for resolving progenitor identity during planarian stem cell differentiation

Regeneration requires accurate production of missing cell lineages. Cell production is driven by changes to gene expression, which is shaped by multiple layers of regulation. Here, we find that the ubiquitous mRNA base-modification, m6A, is required for proper cell fate choice and cellular maturation in planarian stem cells (neoblasts). We mapped m6A-enriched regions in 7,600 planarian genes, and found that perturbation of the m6A pathway resulted in progressive deterioration of tissues and death. Using single cell RNA sequencing of >20,000 cells following perturbation of the pathway, we discovered that m6A negatively regulates transcription of histone variants, and that inhibition of the pathway resulted in accumulation of undifferentiated cells throughout the animal in an abnormal transcriptional state. Analysis of >1000 planarian gene expression datasets revealed that the inhibition of the chromatin modifying complex NuRD had almost indistinguishable consequences, unraveling an unappreciated link between m6A and chromatin modifications. Our findings reveal that m6A is critical for planarian stem cell homeostasis and gene regulation in regeneration.

Ankyrin2 is required for neuronal morphogenesis and long-term memory and interacts genetically with HDAC4

Dysregulation of HDAC4 expression and/or subcellular distribution results in impaired neuronal morphogenesis and long-term memory in Drosophila melanogaster. A recent genetic screen for genes that interact in the same molecular pathway as HDAC4 identified the cytoskeletal adapter Ankyrin2 (Ank2). Here we sought to investigate the role of Ank2 in neuronal morphogenesis, learning and memory, and to examine the nature of interaction with HDAC4. We found that Ank2 is expressed widely throughout the Drosophila brain where it localizes predominantly to axon tracts. Pan-neuronal knockdown of Ank2 in the mushroom body, a region critical for memory formation, resulted in defects in axon morphogenesis, and similarly reduction of Ank2 in lobular plate tangential neurons of the optic lobe disrupted dendritic branching and arborization. Conditional knockdown of Ank2 in the mushroom body of adult Drosophila significantly impaired long-term courtship memory, and this requirement for Ank2 was isolated to gamma ({gamma}) neurons of the mushroom body. As overexpression of HDAC4 in {gamma} neurons also impairs the formation of long-term courtship memory, this suggests that any functional relationship between these proteins during LTM likely occurs in {gamma} neurons. We determined that the genetic interaction requires the presence of nuclear HDAC4 and is not dependent on a conserved putative ankyrin-binding motif present in HDAC4. In summary, we provide the first characterization of the expression pattern of Ank2 in the adult Drosophila brain and demonstrate that Ank2 is critical for morphogenesis of the mushroom body and for the molecular processes required in the adult brain for formation of long-term memories.

A late-stage assembly checkpoint of the human mitochondrial ribosome large subunit

The epitranscriptome plays a key regulatory role in cellular processes in health and disease, including ribosome biogenesis. Here, analysis of the human mitochondrial transcriptome shows that 2-O-methylation is limited to residues of the mitoribosomal large subunit (mtLSU) 16S mt-rRNA, modified by MRM1, MRM2, and MRM3. Ablation of MRM2 leads to a severe impairment of the oxidative phosphorylation system, caused by defective mitochondrial translation and accumulation of mtLSU assembly intermediates. Structures of these particles (2.58 [A]) present disordered RNA domains, partial occupancy of bL36m and bound MALSU1:L0R8F8:mtACP anti-association module. Additionally, we present five mtLSU assembly states with different intersubunit interface configurations. Complementation studies demonstrate that the methyltransferase activity of MRM2 is dispensable for mitoribosome biogenesis. The Drosophila melanogaster orthologue, DmMRM2, is an essential gene, with its knock-down leading to developmental arrest. This work identifies a key late-stage quality control step during mtLSU assembly, ultimately contributing to the maintenance of mitochondrial homeostasis.

Neurexin-3 defines synapse- and sex-dependent diversity of GABAergic inhibition in ventral subiculum

Ventral subiculum (vSUB) is integral to the regulation of stress and reward, however the intrinsic connectivity and synaptic properties of the inhibitory local circuit are poorly understood. Neurexin-3 (Nrxn3) is highly expressed in hippocampal inhibitory neurons, but its function at inhibitory synapses has remained elusive. Using slice electrophysiology, imaging, and single-cell RNA sequencing, we identify multiple roles for Nrxn3 at GABAergic parvalbumin (PV) interneuron synapses made onto vSUB regular spiking (RS) and burst spiking (BS) principal neurons. Surprisingly, we found that intrinsic connectivity and synaptic function of Nrxn3 in vSUB are sexually dimorphic. We reveal that vSUB PVs make preferential contact with RS neurons in males, but BS neurons in females. Furthermore, we determined that despite comparable Nrxn3 isoform expression in male and female PV neurons, Nrxn3 maintains synapse density at PV-RS synapses in males, but suppresses presynaptic release at the same synapses in females.

High transgene expression is associated with systemic GFP silencing in Nicotiana benthamiana

Gene silencing in plants using topical dsRNA is a new approach that has the potential to be a sustainable component of the agricultural production systems of the future. However, more research is needed to enable this technology as an economical and efficacious supplement to current crop protection practices. Systemic gene silencing is one key enabling aspect. The objective of this research was to better understand systemic transgene silencing in Nicotiana benthamiana. Previous reports details sequencing of the integration site of the Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) transgene in the well-known N. benthamiana GFP16C event revealed inadvertent co-integration of part of a bacterial transposase. To determine the effect of this transgene configuration on systemic silencing, new GFP transgenic lines with or without the transposase sequences were produced. GFP expression levels in the 19 single-copy events and three hemizygous 16C lines produced for this study ranged from 50-72% of the homozygous 16C line. GFP expression was equivalent to 16C in a two-copy event. Local GFP silencing was observed in all transgenic and 16C hemizygous lines after topical application of delivery formulations with a GFP targeting dsRNA. The 16C-like systemic silencing phenotype was only observed in the two-copy line. The partial transposase had no impact on transgene expression level, local GFP silencing, small RNA abundance and distribution, or systemic GFP silencing in the transgenic lines. We conclude that high transgene expression level is a key enabler of systemic transgene silencing in N. benthamiana.

Suppressing the morning cortisol rise after memory reactivation at 4 a.m. enhances episodic memory reconsolidation in humans

Evidence from animal and human research shows that established memories can undergo changes after reactivation through a process called reconsolidation. Alterations of the level of the stress hormone cortisol may be one way of manipulating reconsolidation. Here, in a double-blind, within-subject design, we reactivated a 3-day-old memory at 3:55 a.m., immediately followed by oral administration of metyrapone vs. placebo, to examine whether metyrapone-induced suppression of the morning cortisol rise may influence reconsolidation processes during and after early morning sleep. Crucially, reactivation followed by cortisol suppression vs. placebo resulted in enhanced memory for the reactivated episode (tested four days after reactivation). This enhancement after cortisol suppression was specific for the reactivated episode vs. a non-reactivated episode. These findings suggest that when reactivation of memories is immediately followed by suppression of cortisol levels during early morning sleep, reconsolidation processes change in a way that leads to the strengthening of episodic memory traces.

B Cell Division Capacity in Germinal Centers Depends on Myc Transcript Stabilization Through m6A mRNA Methylation and IGF2BP3 Functions

Long-lasting immunity from pathogens depends on the generation of protective antibodies through the germinal center (GC) reaction. The Myc gene produces highly short-lived transcripts which are essential for generation of high-affinity antibodies. mRNA lifetime is regulated by N6-methyladenosine (m6A)-modification of mRNAs through METTL3 activity; however, the role of this machinery in the GC remains unclear. Here, we find that m6A-modification of mRNAs is required for GC maintenance through Myc mRNA stabilization by the atypical m6A-interactor, IGF2BP3. MYC expression, activation of MYC transcriptional programs and cell-cycle progression were diminished in METTL3-deficient GC B cells. METTL3 attenuated Myc-transcript decay and overexpression of MYC in METTL3-deficient GC B cells restored the GC reaction. IGF2BP3 which was induced by CD40-signaling, reinforced MYC expression and MYC-related gene programs in GC B cells. Our findings explain how GC responses are maintained through regulation of Myc-transcript lifetime and expose new targets for manipulation in MYC-driven lymphoma.

Decoding ribosomal RNA modification dynamics at single molecule resolution

A broad diversity of modifications decorate RNA molecules. Originally conceived as static components, evidence is accumulating that some RNA modifications may be dynamic, contributing to cellular responses to external signals and environmental circumstances. A major difficulty in studying these modifications, however, is the need of tailored protocols to map each modification type individually. Here, we present a new approach that uses direct RNA nanopore sequencing to identify and quantify RNA modifications present in native RNA molecules. First, we show that each RNA modification type results in a distinct and characteristic base-calling error signature, which we validate using a battery of genetic strains lacking either pseudouridine (Y) or 2-O-methylation (Nm) modifications. We then demonstrate the value of these signatures for de novo prediction of Y modifications transcriptome-wide, confirming known Y-modified sites as well as uncovering novel Y sites in mRNAs, ncRNAs and rRNAs, including a previously unreported Pus4-dependent Y modification in yeast mitochondrial rRNA, which we validate using orthogonal methods. To explore the dynamics of pseudouridylation across environmental stresses, we treat the cells with oxidative, cold and heat stresses, finding that yeast ribosomal rRNA modifications do not change upon environmental exposures, contrary to the general belief. By contrast, our method reveals many novel heat-sensitive Y-modified sites in snRNAs, snoRNAs and mRNAs, in addition to recovering previously reported sites. Finally, we develop a novel software, nanoRMS, which we show can estimate per-site modification stoichiometries from individual RNA molecules by identifying the reads with altered current intensity and trace profiles, and quantify the RNA modification stoichiometry changes between two conditions. Our work demonstrates that Y RNA modifications can be predicted de novo and in a quantitative manner using native RNA nanopore sequencing.

Astrocyte to microglia cross-talk in acute and chronic neuroinflammation is shaped by SFRP1

Neuroinflammation is a common feature of many neurodegenerative diseases, which fosters a dysfunctional neuron-microglia-astrocyte crosstalk that, in turn, maintains microglial cells into a perniciously reactive state that often enhance neuronal damage. The molecular components that mediate this critical communication are however not fully explored. Here, we have asked whether Secreted-Frizzled-Related-Protein-1 (SFRP1), a multifunctional regulator of cell-to-cell communication, is part of the cellular crosstalk underlying neuroinflammation. We show that in mouse models of acute and chronic neuroinflammation, astrocyte-derived SFRP1 is sufficient to promote and sustain microglial activation, and thus a chronic inflammatory state. SFRP1 allows the upregulation of components of Hypoxia Induced Factors-dependent inflammatory pathway and, to a lower extent, of those downstream of the Nuclear Factor-kappaB. We thus propose that SFRP1 acts as a critical astrocyte to microglia amplifier of neuroinflammation, representing a potential valuable therapeutic target for counteracting the harmful effect of chronic inflammation present in several neurodegenerative diseases.

Effect of acute physical exercise on motor sequence memory

Acute physical exercise improves memory functions by increasing neural plasticity in the hippocampus. In animals, a single session of physical exercise has been shown to boost anandamide (AEA), an endocannabinoid known to promote hippocampal plasticity. Hippocampal neuronal networks encode episodic memory representations, including the temporal organization of elements, and can thus benefit motor sequence learning. While previous work established that acute physical exercise has positive effects on declarative memory linked to hippocampal plasticity mechanisms, its influence on memory for motor sequences, and especially on neural mechanisms underlying possible effects, has been less investigated. Here we studied the impact of acute physical exercise on motor sequence learning, and its underlying neurophysiological mechanisms in humans, using a cross-over randomized within-subjects design. We measured behavior, fMRI activity, and circulating AEA levels in fifteen healthy participants while they performed a serial reaction time task (SRTT) before and after a short period of exercise (moderate or high intensity) or rest. We show that exercise enhanced motor sequence memory, significantly for high intensity exercise and tending towards significance for moderate intensity exercise. This enhancement correlated with AEA increase, and dovetailed with local increases in caudate nucleus and hippocampus activity. These findings demonstrate that acute physical exercise promotes sequence learning, thus attesting the overarching benefit of exercise to hippocampus-related memory functions.

Benefits of motor imagery practice during arm-immobilization on the sensorimotor cortical networks and sleep features

Motor imagery (MI) is known to engage motor networks and could compensate for the maladaptive neuroplasticity elicited by immobilization. This hypothesis and associated underlying neural mechanisms remain underexplored. Here, we investigated how MI practice during 11 h of arm-immobilization influences sensorimotor and cortical representations of the hands, as well as sleep. Fourteen participants were first tested after a normal day, followed by two 11-h periods of immobilization, either with concomitant MI treatment or control tasks. Data revealed that MI prevented the consequences of immobilization: (i) alteration of the sensorimotor representation of hands, (ii) decrease of cortical excitability over the primary motor cortex (M1) contralateral to arm-immobilization, and (iii) reduction of sleep spindles over both M1s. Furthermore, (iv) the time spent in REM sleep was significantly longer after MI. These results support that implementing MI during immobilization can limit the deleterious effects of limb disuse, at several levels of sensorimotor functioning.

Deciphering the ‘m6A code’ via quantitative profiling of m6A at single-nucleotide resolution

N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most abundant modification on mRNA, and is implicated in critical roles in development, physiology and disease. The ability to map m6A using immunoprecipitation-based approaches has played a critical role in dissecting m6A functions and mechanisms of action. Yet, these approaches are of limited specificity, unknown sensitivity, and unable to quantify m6A stoichiometry. These limitations have severely hampered our ability to unravel the factors determining where m6A will be deposited, to which levels (the m6A code), and to quantitatively profile m6A dynamics across biological systems. Here, we used the RNase MazF, which cleaves specifically at unmethylated RNA sites, to develop MASTER-seq for systematic quantitative profiling of m6A sites at 16-25% of all m6A sites at single nucleotide resolution. We established MASTER-seq for orthogonal validation and de novo detection of m6A sites, and for tracking of m6A dynamics in yeast gametogenesis and in early mammalian differentiation. We discover that antibody-based approaches severely underestimate the number of m6A sites, and that both the presence of m6A and its stoichiometry are hard-coded via a simple and predictable code within the extended sequence composition at the methylation sites. This code accounts for ~50% of the variability in methylation levels across sites, allows excellent de novo prediction of methylation sites, and predicts methylation acquisition and loss across evolution. We anticipate that MASTER-seq will pave the path towards a more quantitative investigation of m6A biogenesis and regulation in a wide variety of systems, including diverse cell types, stimuli, subcellular components, and disease states.

Fear in dreams and in wakefulness: evidence for day/night affective homeostasis

Despite partial experimental evidence, it is a long-standing and common belief that dreams serve an emotion regulation function. Revisiting this idea, recent neuroscientific theories have proposed that emotions experienced in dreams contribute to the resolution of emotional distress (e.g. fear extinction) and preparation for future waking affective reactions. Here we addressed one emerging common prediction from these theoretical accounts, namely that experiencing fear in dreams is associated with more adapted responses to threatening signals during wakefulness. Using a stepwise approach across two studies, we first identified brain regions activated when experiencing fear in dreams and then showed that frightening dreams modulated the response of these same regions to threatening stimuli during wakefulness. As predicted, more fear in dreams was associated with reduced activation of those fear-responsive regions during wakefulness. Specifically, in Study 1, we performed serial awakenings in 18 participants recorded throughout the night with high-density EEG and asked them whether they experienced any fear in their dreams. Insula activity increased (i.e. decreased delta and increased gamma power) for dreams containing fear. In Study 2, we tested 89 participants and found that those with higher incidence of fear in their dreams showed reduced fMRI response to fear-eliciting stimuli in the insula, amygdala and midcingulate cortex, while awake. Consistent with better emotion regulation processes, the same participants also displayed increased medial prefrontal cortex activity. These findings support that emotions in dreams and wakefulness engage similar neural substrates, and substantiate a link between emotional processes occurring during sleep and emotional brain functions during wakefulness.

Accurate detection of m6A RNA modifications in native RNA sequences

The field of epitranscriptomics has undergone an enormous expansion in the last few years; however, a major limitation is the lack of generic methods to map RNA modifications transcriptome-wide. Here we show that using Oxford Nanopore Technologies, N6-methyladenosine (m6A) RNA modifications can be detected with high accuracy, in the form of systematic errors and decreased base-calling qualities. Our results open new avenues to investigate the universe of RNA modifications with single nucleotide resolution, in individual RNA molecules.

Culling less fit neurons protects against amyloid-β induced brain damage and cognitive and motor decline

Alzheimers disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia, impairing cognitive and motor functions. One of the pathological hallmarks of AD is neuronal loss, which is not reflected in mouse models of AD. Therefore, the role of neuronal death is still uncertain. Here, we used a Drosophila AD model expressing a secreted form of human amyloid-{beta}42 peptide and show that it recapitulates key aspects of AD pathology, including neuronal death and impaired long-term memory. We found that neuronal apoptosis is mediated by cell fitness-driven neuronal culling, which selectively eliminates impaired neurons from brain circuits. We show that removal of less fit neurons delays amyloid-{beta}42-induced brain damage and protects against cognitive and motor decline, suggesting that - contrary to common knowledge - neuronal death may have a beneficial effect in AD.

Long non-coding RNAs defining major subtypes of B cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia

Recent studies implicated that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) may play a role in the progression and development of acute lymphoblastic leukemia, however, this role is not yet clear. In order to unravel the role of lncRNAs associated with B-cell precursor Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (BCP-ALL) subtypes, we performed transcriptome sequencing and DNA methylation array across 82 BCP-ALL samples from three molecular subtypes (DUX4, Ph-like, and Near Haploid or High Hyperdiploidy). Unsupervised clustering of BCP-ALL samples on the basis of their lncRNAs on transcriptome and DNA methylation profiles revealed robust clusters separating three molecular subtypes. Using extensive computational analysis, we developed a comprehensive catalog of 1235 aberrantly dysregulated BCP-ALL subtype-specific lncRNAs with altered expression and methylation patterns from three subtypes of BCP-ALL. By analyzing the co-expression of subtype-specific lncRNAs and protein-coding genes, we inferred key molecular processes in BCP-ALL subtypes. A strong correlation was identified between the DUX4 specific lncRNAs and activation of TGF-{beta} and Hippo signaling pathways. Similarly, Ph-like specific lncRNAs were correlated with genes involved in activation of PI3K-AKT, mTOR, and JAK-STAT signaling pathways. Interestingly, the relapse-specific differentially expressed lncRNAs correlated with the activation of metabolic and signaling pathways. Finally, we showed a set of epigenetically altered lncRNAs facilitating the expression of tumor genes located at their cis location. Overall, our study provides a comprehensive set of novel subtype and relapse-specific lncRNAs in BCP-ALL. Our findings suggest a wide range of molecular pathways are associated with lncRNAs in BCP-ALL subtypes and provide a foundation for functional investigations that could lead to new therapeutic approaches.\n\nAuthor SummaryAcute lymphoblastic leukemia is a heterogeneous blood cancer, with multiple molecular subtypes, and with high relapse rate. We are far from the complete understanding of the rationale behind these subtypes and high relapse rate. Long non-coding (lncRNAs) has emerged as a novel class of RNA due to its diverse mechanism in cancer development and progression. LncRNAs does not code for proteins and represent around 70% of human transcripts. Recently, there are a number of studies used lncRNAs expression profile in the classification of various cancers subtypes and displayed their correlation with genomic, epigenetic, pathological and clinical features in diverse cancers. Therefore, lncRNAs can account for heterogeneity and has independent prognostic value in various cancer subtypes. However, lncRNAs defining the molecular subtypes of BCP-ALL are not portrayed yet. Here, we describe a set of relapse and subtype-specific lncRNAs from three major BCP-ALL subtypes and define their potential functions and epigenetic regulation. Our data uncover the diverse mechanism of action of lncRNAs in BCP-ALL subtypes defining how lncRNAs are involved in the pathogenesis of disease and the relevance in the stratification of BCP-ALL subtypes.
