PDE1B KO Confers Resilience to Acute Stress-Induced Depression-Like Behavior PDE1B KO confers resilience to acute stress-induced depression-like behavior A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Molecular and Developmental Biology Program of the College of Medicine by Jillian R. Hufgard B.S. Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology April 2017 Committee Chair: Charles V. Vorhees, Ph.D. ABSTRACT Phosphodiesterases (PDE) regulate secondary messengers such as cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) by hydrolyzing the phosphodiester bond. There are over 100 PDE proteins that are categorized into 11 families. Each protein family has a unique tissue distribution and binding affinity for cAMP and/or cGMP. The modulation of different PDEs has been used to treat several disorders: inflammation, erectile dysfunction, and neurological disorders. Recently, PDE inhibitors were implicated for therapeutic benefits in Alzheimer’s disease, depression, Huntington’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, schizophrenia, and substance abuse. PDE1B is found in the caudate-putamen, nucleus accumbens, dentate gyrus, and substantia nigra–areas linked to depression. PDE1B expression is also increased after acute and chronic stress. Two ubiquitous Pde1b knockout (KO) mouse models, both removing part of the catalytic region, decreased immobility on two acute stress tests associated with depression-like behavior; tail suspension test (TST) and forced swim test (FST). The decreases in immobility suggest resistance to depression-like behavior, and these effects were additive when combined with two current antidepressants, fluoxetine and bupropion. The resistance to induced immobility was seen when PDE1B was knocked down during adolescence or earlier. Expression of Pde1b mRNA and protein showed that Pde1b is localized to dopaminergic and glutamatergic post-synaptic cells. Serotonin transporter, dopamine transporter, and dopamine receptor D1a (Drd1a) Cre drivers were tested and only Pde1b KO in Drd1a specific cells was sufficient to reproduce the immobility phenotype in TST. Intrastriatal injections of dopamine receptor, D1, agonist (SKF38393) and antagonist (SCH23390) revealed an additive immobility effect of Pde1b KO and dopamine receptor antagonism. The D1 agonist reversed the genotype immobility phenotype. The results suggest that reduction of PDE1B causes resistance to acute stress-induced depression-like behaviors through the dopamine pathways. ii iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank my advisor, Dr. Charles Vorhees, for providing the opportunity to learn and perform research in his laboratory, his encouragement and guidance, and for his dedication to leading his students through the roller coaster that is graduate school.

Vannelli,3 Elisa Giannetta,4 Daniele Gianfrilli,4 Andrea M. Isidori,4 Silvia Migliaccio,1 Noemi Poerio,5 Maurizio Fraziano,5 Andrea Lenzi,4 and Clara Crescioli1,6 Abstract—T helper 1 (Th1) type cytokines and chemokines are bioactive mediators in inflammation underling several diseases and co-morbid conditions, such as cardiovascular and metabolic disorders. Th1 chemokine CXCL10 participates in heart damage initiation/progression; cardioprotection has been recently associated with sildenafil, a type 5 phosphodiesterase inhibitor. We aimed to evaluate the effect of sildenafil on CXCL10 in inflammatory conditions associated with diabetic cardiomyopathy. We analyzed: CXCL10 gene and protein in human cardiac, endothelial, and immune cells challenged by pro-inflammatory stimuli with and without sildenafil; serum CXCL10 in diabetic subjects at cardiomy- opathy onset, before and after 3 months of treatment with sildenafil vs. placebo. Sildenafil significantly −7 decreased CXCL10 protein secretion (IC50 =2.6×10 ) and gene expression in human cardiomyocytes and significantly decreased circulating CXCL10 in subjects with chemokine basal level ≥ 930 pg/ml, the cut-off value as assessed by ROC analysis. In conclusion, sildenafil could be a pharmacologic tool to control CXCL10-associated inflammation in diabetic cardiomyopathy.

  • The Effects of Clobazam Upon Critical Flicker Fusion Thresholds: a Review
    Drug Development Research Supplement 157-66 (1982) The Effects of Clobazam Upon Critical Flicker Fusion Thresholds: A Review A.C. Parrott Department of Psychology, University of Leeds, Leeds, England ABSTRACT Parrott, A.C.: The effects of clobazam upon critical flicker fusion thresholds: a review. Drug Dev. Res. S1:057-066,1982. The effects of the 1,5-bentodiazepinederivative clobazam upon critical flicker fusion (CFF) values in normal subjects is reviewed. All studies reviewed were double-blind and placebo controlled. Single acute doses of 10 or 20 mg did not lead to significant CFF changes, whereas repeated doses of 20 mg clobazam a day for 4 days produced a significant elevation in CFF thresholds. Possible pharmacokinetic reasons for this CFF elevation after repeated doses are discussed. Equivalent investigations of clobazam at higher dose levels (30 to 60 mg) showed a similar difference in the effects of acute versus repeated doses; single acute doses led to significant CFF decrements, while repeated administrations led to similar clobazam and placebo CFF levels. The patterns of CFF changes with this 13- benzodiazepine anxiolytic agent seems to be different from the CFF changes generally reported with the 1,Cbenzodiazepine anxiolytic agents (generally CFF reductions), and suggests possible central nervous system alerting affects after repeated administration at the lower dose levels. Key words: critical flicker fusion, clobazam, benzodlazeplnes, arousal, anxlety INTRODUCTION Critical flicker fusion (CFF) threshold values have been investigated in psychopharmaco- logical investigations involving a wide variety of psychotropic agents. Smith and Misiac [1976] in their review of the effects upon CFF of acute single doses of psychotropic agents, concluded that the direction of the CFF change was clearly related to the nature of the psychotropic agent.

The effects of various selective phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitors on muscle contractility and cyclic nucleotide contents in porcine iris sphincter were investigated. Forskolin and sodium nitroprusside inhibited carbachol (CCh)-induced contraction in a concen- tration-dependent manner. Various selective PDE inhibitors, vinpocetine (type 1), erythro -9-(2-hydroxy-3-nonyl)adenine (EHNA, type 2), milrinone (type 3), Ro20–1724 (type 4) and zaprinast (type 5), also inhibited CCh-induced contraction in a concentration-dependent manner. The rank order of potency of IC50 was zaprinast > Ro20–1724 > EHNA milrinone > vinpocetine. In the presence of CCh (0.3 M), vinpocetine, milrinone and Ro20–1724 increased cAMP, but not cGMP, contents. In contrast, zaprinast and EHNA both increased cGMP, but not cAMP, contents. This indicates that vinpocetine-, milrinone- and Ro20–1724-induced relaxation is correlated with cAMP, while EHNA- and zaprinast- induced relaxation is correlated with cGMP in porcine iris sphincter. KEY WORDS: cAMP, cGMP, iris sphincter, PDE inhibitor, smooth muscle. J. Vet. Med.
