  • Transcriptomes and Neurotransmitter Profiles of Classes of Gustatory And
    ARTICLE DOI: 10.1038/s41467-017-01095-1 OPEN Transcriptomes and neurotransmitter profiles of classes of gustatory and somatosensory neurons in the geniculate ganglion Gennady Dvoryanchikov 1, Damian Hernandez1, Jennifer K. Roebber 2, David L. Hill3, Stephen D. Roper 1,2,4 & Nirupa Chaudhari 1,2,4 Taste buds are innervated by neurons whose cell bodies reside in cranial sensory ganglia. Studies on the functional properties and connectivity of these neurons are hindered by the lack of markers to define their molecular identities and classes. The mouse geniculate ganglion contains chemosensory neurons innervating lingual and palatal taste buds and somatosensory neurons innervating the pinna. Here, we report single cell RNA sequencing of geniculate ganglion neurons. Using unbiased transcriptome analyses, we show a pronounced separation between two major clusters which, by anterograde labeling, correspond to gus- tatory and somatosensory neurons. Among the gustatory neurons, three subclusters are present, each with its own complement of transcription factors and neurotransmitter response profiles. The smallest subcluster expresses both gustatory- and mechanosensory- related genes, suggesting a novel type of sensory neuron. We identify several markers to help dissect the functional distinctions among gustatory neurons and address questions regarding target interactions and taste coding. 1 Department of Physiology & Biophysics, University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, Miami, FL 33136, USA. 2 Graduate Program in Neurosciences, University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, Miami, FL 33136, USA. 3 Department of Psychology, University of Virginia, Charlottesville, VA 22904, USA. 4 Department of Otolaryngology, University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, Miami, FL 33136, USA.

  • Sensory Neuronal P2RX4 Receptors Controls BDNF Signaling In
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Sensory neuronal P2RX4 receptors controls BDNF signaling in infammatory pain Received: 12 April 2017 Sarah Lalisse1,2,3, Jennifer Hua1,2,3, Manon Lenoir1,2,3, Nathalie Linck1,2,3, Accepted: 27 December 2017 François Rassendren 1,2,3 & Lauriane Ulmann1,2,3 Published: xx xx xxxx Chronic infammatory and neuropathic pains are major public health concerns. Potential therapeutic targets include the ATP-gated purinergic receptors (P2RX) that contribute to these pathological types of pain in several diferent cell types. The purinergic receptors P2RX2 and P2RX3 are expressed by a specifc subset of dorsal root ganglion neurons and directly shape pain processing by primary aferents. In contrast the P2RX4 and P2RX7 are mostly expressed in myeloid cells, where activation of these receptors triggers the release of various pro-infammatory molecules. Here, we demonstrate that P2RX4 also controls calcium infux in mouse dorsal root ganglion neurons. P2RX4 is up-regulated in pain-processing neurons during long lasting peripheral infammation and it co-localizes with Brain- Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF). In the dorsal horn of the spinal cord, BDNF-dependent signaling pathways, phosphorylation of Erk1/2 and of the GluN1 subunit as well as the down regulation of the co-transporter KCC2, which are triggered by peripheral infammation are impaired in P2RX4-defcient mice. Our results suggest that P2RX4, expressed by sensory neurons, controls neuronal BDNF release that contributes to hyper-excitability during chronic infammatory pain and establish P2RX4 in sensory neurons as a new potential therapeutic target to treat hyperexcitability during chronic infammatory pain. Pain is a sensory modality that is encoded by specialized nociceptive neurons in the dorsal root ganglion (DRG).
