  • Learning Alters Theta-Nested Gamma Oscillations in Inferotemporal Cortex
    Learning alters theta-nested gamma oscillations in inferotemporal cortex Keith M Kendrick1, Yang Zhan1, Hanno Fischer1 Ali U Nicol1 Xuejuan Zhang 2 & Jianfeng Feng3 1Cognitive and Behavioural Neuroscience, The Babraham Institute, Cambridge, CB22 3AT, UK 2Mathematics Department, Zhejiang Normal University, Jinhua 321004, Zhejian Province, PR China 3Department of Computer Science, Warwick University, Coventry CV4 7AL UK and Centre for Computational Systems Biology, Fudan University, Shanghai, PR China. Corresponding authors: [email protected] [email protected] 1 How coupled brain rhythms influence cortical information processing to support learning is unresolved. Local field potential and neuronal activity recordings from 64- electrode arrays in sheep inferotemporal cortex showed that visual discrimination learning increased the amplitude of theta oscillations during stimulus presentation. Coupling between theta and gamma oscillations, the theta/gamma ratio and the regularity of theta phase were also increased, but not neuronal firing rates. A neural network model with fast and slow inhibitory interneurons was developed which generated theta nested gamma. By increasing N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor sensitivity similar learning-evoked changes could be produced. The model revealed that altered theta nested gamma could potentiate downstream neuron responses by temporal desynchronization of excitatory neuron output independent of changes in overall firing frequency. This learning-associated desynchronization was also exhibited by inferotemporal cortex neurons. Changes in theta nested gamma may therefore facilitate learning-associated potentiation by temporal modulation of neuronal firing. The functions of both low and high frequency oscillations in the brain have been the subject of considerable speculation1. Low frequency theta oscillations (4-8Hz) have been observed to increase in terms of power and phase-locked discharge of single neurons in a visual memory task2.

  • Identification of New Substrates and Physiological Relevance
    Université de Montréal The Multifaceted Proprotein Convertases PC7 and Furin: Identification of New Substrates and Physiological Relevance Par Stéphanie Duval Biologie Moléculaire, Faculté de médecine Thèse présentée en vue de l’obtention du grade de Philosophiae doctor (Ph.D) en Biologie moléculaire, option médecine cellulaire et moléculaire Avril 2020 © Stéphanie Duval, 2020 Résumé Les proprotéines convertases (PCs) sont responsables de la maturation de plusieurs protéines précurseurs et sont impliquées dans divers processus biologiques importants. Durant les 30 dernières années, plusieurs études sur les PCs se sont traduites en succès cliniques, toutefois les fonctions spécifiques de PC7 demeurent obscures. Afin de comprendre PC7 et d’identifier de nouveaux substrats, nous avons généré une analyse protéomique des protéines sécrétées dans les cellules HuH7. Cette analyse nous a permis d’identifier deux protéines transmembranaires de fonctions inconnues: CASC4 et GPP130/GOLIM4. Au cours de cette thèse, nous nous sommes aussi intéressé au rôle de PC7 dans les troubles comportementaux, grâce à un substrat connu, BDNF. Dans le chapitre premier, je présenterai une revue de la littérature portant entre autres sur les PCs. Dans le chapitre II, l’étude de CASC4 nous a permis de démontrer que cette protéine est clivée au site KR66↓NS par PC7 et Furin dans des compartiments cellulaires acides. Comme CASC4 a été rapporté dans des études de cancer du sein, nous avons généré des cellules MDA- MB-231 exprimant CASC4 de type sauvage et avons démontré une diminution significative de la migration et de l’invasion cellulaire. Ce phénotype est causé notamment par une augmentation du nombre de complexes d’adhésion focale et peut être contrecarré par la surexpression d’une protéine CASC4 mutante ayant un site de clivage optimale par PC7/Furin ou encore en exprimant une protéine contenant uniquement le domaine clivé N-terminal.

    Article Toxoplasma gondii transmembrane microneme proteins and their modular design SHEINER, Lilach, et al. Abstract Summary Host cell invasion by the Apicomplexa critically relies on regulated secretion of transmembrane micronemal proteins (TM-MICs). Toxoplasma gondii possesses functionally non-redundant MICs complexes that participate in gliding motility, host cell attachment, moving junction formation, rhoptry secretion and invasion. The TM-MICs are released onto the parasite's surface as complexes capable of interacting with host cell receptors. Additionally, TgMIC2 simultaneously connects to the actomyosin system via binding to aldolase. During invasion these adhesive complexes are shed from the surface notably via intramembrane cleavage of the TM-MICs by a rhomboid protease. Some TM-MICs act as escorters and assure trafficking of the complexes to the micronemes. We have investigated the properties of TgMIC6, TgMIC8, TgMIC8.2, TgAMA1 and the new micronemal protein TgMIC16 with respect to interaction with aldolase, susceptibility to rhomboid cleavage and presence of trafficking signals. We conclude that several TM-MICs lack targeting information within their C-terminal domains, indicating that trafficking depends on yet unidentified [...] Reference SHEINER, Lilach, et al.

Neural tissue can generate oscillatory activity in many ways, driven either by mechanisms within individual neurons or by interactions between neurons. In individual neurons, oscillations can appear either as oscillations in membrane potential or as rhythmic patterns of action potentials, which then produce oscillatory activation of post-synaptic neurons. At the level of neural ensembles, synchronized activity of large numbers of neurons can give rise to macroscopic oscillations, which can be observed in an electroencephalogram. Oscillatory activity in groups of neurons generally arises from feedback connections between the neurons that result in the synchronization of their firing patterns. The interaction between neurons can give rise to oscillations at a different frequency than the firing frequency of individual neurons. A well- known example of macroscopic neural oscillations is alpha activity. Neural oscillations were observed by researchers as early as 1924 (by Hans Berger). More than 50 years later, intrinsic oscillatory behavior was encountered in vertebrate neurons, but its functional role is still not fully understood. The possible roles of neural oscillations include feature binding, information transfer mechanisms and the generation of rhythmic motor output.

  • An Entamoeba Histolytica Rhomboid Protease with Atypical Specificity Cleaves a Surface Lectin Involved in Phagocytosis and Immune Evasion
    Downloaded from genesdev.cshlp.org on September 28, 2021 - Published by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press An Entamoeba histolytica rhomboid protease with atypical specificity cleaves a surface lectin involved in phagocytosis and immune evasion Leigh A. Baxt,1 Rosanna P. Baker,2 Upinder Singh,1,4 and Sinisa Urban2,3 1Departments of Internal Medicine and Microbiology and Immunology, Stanford University School of Medicine, Stanford, California 94305, USA; 2Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland 21205, USA Rhomboid proteases are membrane-embedded enzymes conserved in all kingdoms of life, but their cellular functions across evolution are largely unknown. Prior work has uncovered a role for rhomboid enzymes in host cell invasion by malaria and related intracellular parasites, but this is unlikely to be a widespread function, even in pathogens, since rhomboid proteases are also conserved in unrelated protozoa that maintain an extracellular existence. We examined rhomboid function in Entamoeba histolytica, an extracellular, parasitic ameba that is second only to malaria in medical burden globally. Despite its large genome, E. histolytica encodes only one rhomboid (EhROM1) with residues necessary for protease activity. EhROM1 displayed atypical substrate specificity, being able to cleave Plasmodium adhesins but not the canonical substrate Drosophila Spitz. We searched for substrates encoded in the ameba genome and found EhROM1 was able to cleave a cell surface lectin specifically. In E. histolytica trophozoites, EhROM1 changed localization to vesicles during phagocytosis and to the posterior cap structure during surface receptor shedding for immune evasion, in both cases colocalizing with lectins. Collectively these results implicate rhomboid proteases for the first time in immune evasion and suggest that a common function of rhomboid enzymes in widely divergent protozoan pathogens is to break down adhesion proteins.

    Thalamocortical oscillations - Scholarpedia Page 1 of 14 Thalamocortical oscillations Maxim Bazhenov, The Salk Institute, San Diego, California Igor Timofeev, Laval University, Quebec, Canada Oscillatory activity is an emerging property of the thalamocortical system. The various oscillatory rhythms generated in the thalamocortical system are mediated by two types of mechanisms: intrinsic mechanisms, which depend on the interplay between specific intrinsic currents. extrinsic or network mechanisms, which require the interaction of excitatory and inhibitory neurons within a population. Intrinsic and network mechanisms can work alone (e.g., thalamic delta oscillations depend on the intrinsic properties of thalamic relay cells, cortical slow oscillation depends on network properties) or in combination (e.g., spindles depend on the interaction between thalamic relay and reticular neurons as well as on their intrinsic properties). The patterns and the dominant frequencies of thalamocortical oscillations depend on the functional state of the brain. Oscillations Normal thalamocortical oscillatory activities include infra-slow : 0.02-0.1 Hz, slow : 0.1-15 Hz (present mainly during slow-wave sleep or anesthesia), which are further divided on slow oscillation (0.2-1 Hz), delta (1-4 Hz), spindle (7-15Hz), theta , which is generated in the limbic system and described elsewhere, fast : 20-60 Hz, ultra-fast : 100-600 Hz. The fast and ultra-fast activities may be present in various states of vigilance including sleep and frequently coexist with slower rhythms (e.g., fast gamma oscillations may be found during depolarized phases of slow sleep oscillations). Spontaneous brain rhythms during different states of vigilance may lead to increased responsiveness and plastic changes in the strength of connections among neurons, thus affecting information flow in the thalamocortical system.
