  • Nicotinic Signalling and Neurosteroid Modulation in Principal Neurons of the Hippocampal Formation and Prefrontal Cortex
    Nicotinic Signalling and Neurosteroid Modulation in Principal Neurons of the Hippocampal Formation and Prefrontal Cortex by Beryl Yik Ting Chung A Thesis presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Biomedical Sciences and Neuroscience Guelph, Ontario, Canada © Beryl Yik Ting Chung, April, 2018 ABSTRACT NICOTINIC SIGNALLING AND NEUROSTEROID MODULATION IN PRINCIPAL NEURONS OF THE HIPPOCAMPAL FORMATION AND PREFRONTAL CORTEX Beryl Yik Ting Chung Advisor: University of Guelph, 2018 Dr. Craig D.C. Bailey Nicotinic signalling plays an important role in coordinating the response of neuronal networks in many brain regions. During pre- and postnatal circuit formation, neurotransmission mediated by nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) influences neuronal survival and regulates neuronal excitability, synaptic transmission, and synaptic plasticity. Nicotinic signalling is also necessary for the proper function of the hippocampal formation (HF) and prefrontal cortex (PFC), which are anatomically and functionally connected and facilitate higher-order cognitive functions. The decline or dysfunction in nicotinic signalling and nAChR function has been observed in various neurological disorders, and the disruption or alteration of nicotinic signalling in the HF and/or PFC can impair learning and memory. While the location and functional role of the α4β2* nAChR isoform has been well characterized in the medial portion of the PFC, this is not well-established in the HF. What is the role of α4β2* nAChRs in excitatory principal neurons of the HF during early development? Growing evidence suggests that the progesterone metabolite allopregnanolone (ALLO) plays a role in mediating the proper function of the HF and the PFC, and that it may also inhibit nAChR function.

High levels of estrogen (E) promotes places memory while low level of E promotes response memory. However, little is known about the effects of progesterone (P) on memory bias. Experiment 1 determined whether P affects memory bias. Ovariectomized (OVX) female rats were trained in a plus- shaped maze, which assesses memory system bias, and received one of three hormonal treatments: Low 17β estradiol (E2), high E2 or high E2 + P.

Fedotcheva, MD, DSc, Senior Researcher, Research Laboratory of Molecular Pharmacology Pirogov Russian National Research Medical University, 1 Ostrovitianova St., Moscow, 117997, Russia This review summarizes the current opinions on the mechanisms of action of nuclear, mitochondrial, and membrane progesterone receptors. The main aspects of the pharmacological action of progestins have been studied. Data on the clinical use of gestagens by nosological groups are presented. Particular attention is paid to progesterone, megestrol acetate, medroxyprogesterone acetate due to broadening of their spectrum of action. The possibilities of using gestagens as neuroprotectors, immunomodulators, and chemosensitizers are considered.

However, the studies of Pgrmc1’s paralog, Pgrmc2 are still lacking. In order − − Progestin to determine the physiologic function(s) of Pgrmc2, we generated a zebrafish mutant line (pgrmc2 / ). We Oocyte maturation − − found a reduction in both spawning frequency and the number of embryos produced in female pgrmc2 / . This Steroid synthesis − − subfertility is caused by reduced oocyte maturation (germinal vesicle breakdown, GVBD) in pgrmc2 / in vivo. DHP − − Nonetheless, oocytes from pgrmc2 / had similar sensitivity to 17α,20β-dihydroxy-4-pregnen-3-one (DHP, a maturation induced progestin in zebrafish) compared with wildtype (wt) in vitro.

  • Mouse Paqr9 Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9)
    https://www.alphaknockout.com Mouse Paqr9 Conditional Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) Objective: To create a Paqr9 conditional knockout Mouse model (C57BL/6J) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering. Strategy summary: The Paqr9 gene (NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_198414 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000064225 ) is located on Mouse chromosome 9. 1 exon is identified, with the ATG start codon in exon 1 and the TGA stop codon in exon 1 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000079597). Exon 1 will be selected as conditional knockout region (cKO region). Deletion of this region should result in the loss of function of the Mouse Paqr9 gene. To engineer the targeting vector, homologous arms and cKO region will be generated by PCR using BAC clone RP23-231G6 as template. Cas9, gRNA and targeting vector will be co-injected into fertilized eggs for cKO Mouse production. The pups will be genotyped by PCR followed by sequencing analysis. Note: Exon 1 covers 100.0% of the coding region. Start codon is in exon 1, and stop codon is in exon 1. The size of effective cKO region: ~1158 bp. The cKO region does not have any other known gene.
