  • Survival of cholinergic forebrain neurons in developing p75NGFR-deficient mice. 8939868

    The functions of the low-affinity p75 nerve growth factor receptor (p75(NGFR)) in the central nervous system were explored in vivo. In normal mice, approximately 25 percent of the cholinergic basal forebrain neurons did not express TrkA and died between postnatal day 6 and 15. This loss did not occur in p75(NGFR)-deficient mice or in normal mice systemically injected with a p75(NGFR)-inhibiting peptide. Control, but not p75(NGFR)-deficient, mice also had fewer cholinergic striatal interneurons. Apparently, p75(NGFR) mediates apoptosis of these developing neurons in the absence of TrkA, and modulation of p75(NGFR) can promote neuronal survival. Cholinergic basal forebrain neurons are involved in learning and memory.

  • Differential effects on spatial navigation of immunotoxin-induced cholinergic lesions of the medial septal area and nucleus basalis magnocellularis. 8027790

    The effects on anatomy and behavior of a ribosomal inactivating protein (saporin) coupled to a monoclonal antibody against the low-affinity NGF receptor (NGFr) were examined. In adult rats, NGFr is expressed predominantly in cholinergic neurons of the medial septal area (MSA), diagonal band nuclei, and nucleus basalis magnocellularis (nBM), but also in noncholinergic cerebellar Purkinje cells. Rats with immunotoxin injections to the MSA, nBM, and lateral ventricle were compared to controls on a spatial and cued reference memory task in the Morris maze. Toxin injections to the MSA slightly impaired the initial, but not asymptotic, phase of spatial navigation. Injections to the nBM impaired all phases of spatial navigation. Cued navigation, however, was not affected in either the MSA or nBM group. The ventricular injections severely affected spatial and cued navigation. Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) histochemistry and NGFr and choline acetyltransferase immunohistochemistry revealed a loss of (1) almost all NGFr-positive cholinergic neurons in the MSA and AChE fibers in hippocampus (MSA group); (2) almost all NGFr neurons in the nBM, some in the MSA, most AChE fibers in neocortex and some in the hippocampus (nBM group), and (3) almost all NGFr neurons in the MSA and nBM and their corresponding hippocampal and cortical AChE fibers (ventricular group). Cholinergic nBM projections to the amygdala were largely preserved in all groups. The amount of cholinergic fiber loss in the cortex correlated modestly, but significantly, with the severity of impairment of the asymptotic phase of performance of the spatial task. An unambiguous interpretation of the anatomical locus of behavioral deficits was not possible because of damage to cholinergic striatal interneurons (nBM group) and to noncholinergic cerebellar Purkinje cells (ventricular group). These data suggest that the cholinergic cortical system is critical to the performance of this spatial memory task. Cholinergic denervation of the hippocampus alone, however, is not sufficient to impair markedly performance of this task.

  • Complete and selective cholinergic denervation of rat neocortex and hippocampus but not amygdala by an immunotoxin against the p75 NGF receptor. 8120624

    The immunotoxin 192 IgG-saporin, produced by coupling the ribosome-inactivating protein saporin to the monoclonal 192 IgG antibody against the low-affinity p75 NGF receptor (NGFr), was injected into the cerebral ventricle, septal area, and substantia innominata of adult rats. Injections into the cerebral ventricle induced a complete loss of NGFr-positive basal forebrain neurons and their axons. Extensive loss of cholinergic neurons was found in the septum, diagonal band, and magnocellular preoptic nucleus but not in the nucleus basalis-substantia innominata complex, where many cholinergic, presumably NGFr-negative, neurons remained intact. Cholinergic fibers were completely lost in the neocortex and hippocampus, showed some preservation in allocortical areas, and showed only minor loss in the amygdala. The NGFr-positive cholinergic basal forebrain neurons progressively degenerated during the first 5 d and did not recover after 180 d. The effect of intraventricular 192 IgG-saporin injections on NGFr-positive basal forebrain neurons could be blocked by simultaneous intraventricular injection of colchicine. Intraparenchymal injections into the septal area or substantia innominata damaged cholinergic neurons mainly around the injection sites and reduced their respective cortical and hippocampal projections. Noncholinergic septal neurons containing parvalbumin and noncholinergic neurons containing calbindin-D28k or NADPHd, which were adjacent to cholinergic nucleus basalis-substantia innominata neurons, were not affected by 192 IgG-saporin. The ChAT immunoreactivity in cortical interneurons, habenula, and brainstem was unchanged. Dopaminergic and noradrenergic cortical afferents remained intact. 192 IgG-saporin damaged two neuronal groups outside the basal forebrain that express the p75 NGF receptor: NGFr-positive cerebellar Purkinje cells after intraventricular injection and cholinergic striatal interneurons after injections into the substantia innominata. These results indicate that the immunotoxin 192 IgG-saporin induces a complete and selective lesion of NGFr-positive cholinergic basal forebrain neurons projecting to hippocampus and neocortex.

  • Regulation of p27Kip1 by Sox2 maintains quiescence of inner pillar cells in the murine auditory sensory epithelium. 22855803

    Sox2 plays critical roles in cell fate specification during development and in stem cell formation; however, its role in postmitotic cells is largely unknown. Sox2 is highly expressed in supporting cells (SCs) of the postnatal mammalian auditory sensory epithelium, which unlike non-mammalian vertebrates remains quiescent even after sensory hair cell damage. Here, we induced the ablation of Sox2, specifically in SCs at three different postnatal ages (neonatal, juvenile and adult) in mice. In neonatal mice, Sox2-null inner pillar cells (IPCs, a subtype of SCs) proliferated and generated daughter cells, while other SC subtypes remained quiescent. Furthermore, p27(Kip1), a cell cycle inhibitor, was absent in Sox2-null IPCs. Similarly, upon direct deletion of p27(Kip1), p27(Kip1)-null IPCs also proliferated but retained Sox2 expression. Interestingly, cell cycle control of IPCs by Sox2-mediated expression of p27(Kip1) gradually declined with age. In addition, deletion of Sox2 or p27(Kip1) did not cause a cell fate change. Finally, chromatin immunoprecipitation with Sox2 antibodies and luciferase reporter assays with the p27(Kip1) promoter support that Sox2 directly activates p27(Kip1) transcription in postmitotic IPCs. Hence, in contrast to the well known activity of Sox2 in promoting proliferation and cell fate determination, our data demonstrate that Sox2 plays a novel role as a key upstream regulator of p27(Kip1) to maintain the quiescent state of postmitotic IPCs. Our studies suggest that manipulating Sox2 or p27(Kip1) expression is an effective approach to inducing proliferation of neonatal auditory IPCs, an initial but necessary step toward restoring hearing in mammals.
