Although persistent translation arrest correlates with the selective vulnerability of post-ischemic hippocampal cornu ammonis 1 (Ammon's horn) (CA1) neurons, the mechanism of persistent translation arrest is not fully understood. Using fluorescent in situ hybridization and immunofluorescence histochemistry, we studied colocalization of polyadenylated mRNAs [poly(A)] with the following mRNA binding factors: eukaryotic initiation factor (eIF) 4G (translation initiation factor), HuR (ARE-containing mRNA stabilizing protein), poly-adenylated mRNA binding protein (PABP), S6 (small ribosomal subunit marker), T cell internal antigen (TIA-1) (stress granule marker), and tristetraprolin (TTP) (processing body marker). We compared staining in vulnerable CA1 and resistant CA3 from 1 to 48 h reperfusion, following 10 min global ischemia in the rat. In both CA1 and CA3 neurons, cytoplasmic poly(A) mRNAs redistributed from a homogenous staining pattern seen in controls to granular structures we term mRNA granules. The mRNA granules abated after 16 h reperfusion in CA3, but persisted in CA1 neurons to 48 h reperfusion. Protein synthesis inhibition correlated precisely with the presence of the mRNA granules. In both CA1 and CA3, the mRNA granules colocalized with eIF4G and PABP, but not S6, TIA-1 or TTP, indicating that they were neither stress granules nor processing bodies. Colocalization of HuR in the mRNA granules correlated with translation of 70 kDa inducible heat shock protein, which occurred early in CA3 (8 h) and was delayed in CA1 (36 h). Thus, differential compartmentalization of mRNA away from the 40S subunit correlated with translation arrest in post-ischemic neurons, providing a concise mechanism of persistent translation arrest in post-ischemic CA1. 相似文献

Partial proteolysis and phosphorylation of the translation initiation factor eukaryotic initiation factor 4G (eIF4G) occur in reperfused brain, but the contribution of eIF4G alterations to brain injury has not been established. A component of the complex delivering mRNA to the small ribosomal subunit, eIF4G is also found in stress granules. Stress granules sequester inactive 48S preinitiation complexes during stress-induced translation arrest. We performed double-labeling immunofluorescence histochemistry for total or ser 1108 phosphorylated eIF4G and the stress granule component T-cell internal antigen following normothermic, 10 min cardiac arrest-induced global brain ischemia and up to 4 h reperfusion in the rat. In cornu ammonis (Ammon's horn; CA) 1 at 90 min and 4 h reperfusion, eIF4G staining transformed from a homogeneous to an aggregated distribution. The number of eIF4G-containing stress granules differed between CA1 and CA3 during reperfusion. In hippocampal pyramidal neurons, phosphorylated eIF4G appeared exclusively in stress granules. Supragranular interneurons of the dentate gyrus showed a large increase in cytoplasmic eIF4G(P) following reperfusion. Immunoblot analysis with antisera against different portions of eIF4G showed a large increase in phosphorylated C-terminal eIF4G fragments, suggesting these accumulate in the cytoplasm of dentate gyrus interneurons. Thus, altered eIF4G subcellular compartmentalization may contribute to prolonged translation arrest in CA1 pyramidal neurons. Accumulation of phosphorylated eIF4G fragments may contribute to the vulnerability of dentate interneurons. Ischemia and reperfusion invoke different translational control responses in distinct hippocampal neuron populations, which may contribute to the differential ischemic vulnerabilities of these cells. 相似文献

Convergence of stress granules and protein aggregates in hippocampal cornu ammonis 1 at later reperfusion following global brain ischemia 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The delayed and selective vulnerability of post-ischemic hippocampal cornu ammonis (CA) 1 pyramidal neurons correlates with a lack of recovery of normal protein synthesis. Recent evidence implicates sequestration of translational machinery into protein aggregates and stress granules as factors underlying persistent translation arrest in CA1 neurons. However, the relationship between protein aggregates and stress granules during brain reperfusion is unknown. Here we investigated the colocalization of protein aggregates and stress granules using immunofluorescence microscopy and pair-wise double labeling for ubiquitin/T cell internal antigen (TIA-1), ubiquitin/small ribosomal subunit protein 6 (S6), and TIA-1/S6. We evaluated the rat dorsal hippocampus at 1, 2 or 3 days of reperfusion following a 10 min global brain ischemic insult. At 1 day of reperfusion, ubiquitin-containing aggregates (ubi-protein clusters) occurred in neurons but did not colocalize with stress granules. At 2 days' reperfusion, only in CA1, cytoplasmic protein aggregates colocalized with stress granules, and ubiquitin-containing inclusions accumulated in the nuclei of CA1 pyramidal neurons. Functionally, a convergence of stress granules and protein aggregates would be expected to sustain translation arrest and inhibit clearance of ubiquitinated proteins, both factors expected to contribute to CA1 pyramidal neuron vulnerability. 相似文献

Transient cerebral ischemia leads to irreversible translational inhibition which has been considered as a hallmark of delayed neuronal death after ischemia. This study utilized a rat transient cerebral ischemia model to investigate whether irreversible translational inhibition is due to abnormal aggregation of translational complex, i.e. the ribosomes and their associated nascent polypeptides, initiation factors, translational chaperones and degradation enzymes after ischemia. Translational complex aggregation was studied by electron microscopy, as well as by biochemical analyses. A duration of 15 or 20 min of cerebral ischemia induced severe translational complex aggregation starting from 30 min of reperfusion and lasting until the onset of delayed neuronal death at 48 h of reperfusion. Under electron microscopy, most rosette-shaped polyribosomes were relatively evenly distributed in the cytoplasm of sham-operated control neurons. After ischemia, most ribosomes were clumped into large abnormal aggregates in neurons destined to die. Translational complex components consisting of small ribosomal subunit protein 6, large subunit protein 28, eukaryotic initiation factor-3eta, co-translational chaperone heat shock cognate protein 70 and co-chaperone HSP40-Hdj1, as well as co-translational ubiquitin ligase c-terminus of hsp70-interacting protein were all irreversibly clumped into large abnormal protein aggregates after ischemia. Translational components were also highly ubiquitinated. To our knowledge, irreversible aggregation of translational components has not been reported after brain ischemia. This study clearly indicates that ischemia damages co-translational chaperone and degradation machinery, resulting in irreversible destruction of protein synthesis machinery by protein aggregation after ischemia. 相似文献

Transient global brain ischemia results in an immediate inhibition of protein translation upon reperfusion. During early brain reperfusion protein synthesis is inhibited by alpha subunit of eukaryotic initiation factor 2 (eIF2α) phosphorylation by the PKR-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase (PERK). Normally, PERK is held in an inactive, monomeric state by the binding of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) chaperone GRP78 to the lumenal end of PERK. The prevailing view is that ER stress leads to the accumulation of unfolded proteins in the ER lumen. GRP78 dissociates from PERK to bind these accumulated unfolded proteins, leading to PERK activation, phosphorylation of eIF2α, and inhibition of translation. To determine if an increase in unfolded nascent proteins following transient brain ischemia contributes to PERK activation, protein synthesis was blocked by intracerebral injection of anisomycin prior to induction of ischemia. Anisomycin inhibited protein synthesis by over 99% and reduced newly synthesized proteins in the ER to ∼20% of controls. With an ER nearly devoid of newly synthesized proteins, PERK was still activated and was able to phosphorylate eIF2α in CA1 neurons during reperfusion. These data strongly argue that PERK activation is independent of the large increase in unfolded nascent proteins within the ER following transient global brain ischemia. 相似文献

In this work, we show extensive phosphorylation of the alpha subunit of translation initiation factor 2 (eIF2alpha) occurring in the brain of mice subjected to 30 min of status epilepticus induced by pilocarpine. eIF2alpha(P) immunoreactivity was detected in the hippocampal pyramidal layer CA1 and CA3, cortex layer V, thalamus and amygdala. After 2 h of recovery, there was a marked decrease in total brain eIF2alpha(P), with the cortex layer V showing the most pronounced loss of anti-eIF2alpha(P) labeling, whereas the CA1 subregion had a significant increase in eIF2alpha(P). These results indicate that inhibition of protein synthesis in experimental models of epilepsy might be due to low levels of eIF2-GTP caused by the phosphorylation of eIF2alpha, and suggest that translational control may contribute to cell fate in the affected areas. 相似文献

Co-existence of necrosis and apoptosis in rat hippocampus following transient forebrain ischemia 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
Morphological changes of CA1 and CA3 pyramidal neurons in rat hippocampus at different intervals following transient forebrain ischemia were examined to determine the nature of post-ischemic cell death in these regions. In the CA1 region, swelling of small dendrites occurred at approximately 24 h reperfusion. At approximately 48 h reperfusion, swelling was found in large dendrites of many CA1 neurons and the mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) were dilated. A small portion of neurons showed chromatin aggregation and nuclear indentation without swelling signs. At approximately 60 h reperfusion, swelling of somata was evident in many neurons. Large dense chromatin clumps with round or ovoid contour were found in other neurons. At 72 and 96 h after ischemia, many large vacuoles and glias with active phagocytosis were observed. At 7 days after ischemia, the tissue was compact and many glias were found in the region. Most of the CA3 neurons had normal appearance after ischemia. A total of 5-10% CA3 neurons exhibited shrinking nuclei and chromatin aggregation at approximately 24 h reperfusion. The number of these neurons decreased overtime and disappeared at 72 h after ischemia. These results demonstrate the co-existence of necrosis and apoptosis in the CA1 region after transient forebrain ischemia. Most CA3 neurons remained intact after ischemia while a small portion of them showed apoptotic cell death. 相似文献

The hippocampus is a brain structure specifically vulnerable to short periods of transient cerebral ischemia, and which displays delayed neuronal necrosis. Protein ubiquitination is a posttranslational modification of proteins and an important factor in heat shock response and a regulator of ATP-dependent protein degradation. Using affinity purified antibodies against ubiquitin and ubiquitin-protein conjugates we have found that the ubiquitin immunoreactivity (UIR), normally present in all neurons of the hippocampus, disappears in the early recirculation period following cerebral ischemia from all hippocampal cells except the interneurons. Later UIR reappears in the different hippocampal regions over a 72 h period in the following order: granule cells-CA3 pyramidal cells-CA2 pyramidal cells. This is the inverse order of sensitivity of these cells to ischemia. The UIR never recovers in the CA1 pyramidal neurons where a 95% neuronal necrosis is seen following three days of recovery. We propose that the loss of UIR in the pyramidal neurons in the CA1 region signifies a persistent impairment of protein ubiquitination, and thus a change in the turnover of structural and regulatory proteins, which could be an essential part of the mechanism of slow neuronal death following cerebral ischemia. 相似文献

Post-ischemic administration of progesterone in rats exerts neuroprotective effects on the hippocampus 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Progesterone is neuroprotective in models of focal or global ischemia when treatment starts either before the insult or at the onset of reperfusion. In these cases the steroid may act during the occurrence of the early pathophysiological events triggered by ischemia or reperfusion. As opposed to this condition, the aim of the present study was to assess the effect of delayed, post-injury administration of progesterone on the preservation of pyramidal neurons of the hippocampus of rats 21 days after been exposed to global ischemia by the four vessel occlusion model. Progesterone (8 mg/kg, i.v.) or its vehicle, were administered at 20 min, 2, 6, and 24h after the end of ischemia. At histological examination, brains of the ischemic vehicle-treated rats showed a severe reduction of the population of pyramidal neurons in the CA1 and CA2 subfields (12% and 29% remaining neurons, respectively), and a less severe neuronal loss in the CA3 and CA4 subfields of the hippocampus (68% and 63% remaining neurons, respectively), as compared to rats exposed to sham procedures. They also showed a two-fold enlargement of the lateral ventricles and 33% shrinkage of the cerebral cortex as compared to the sham group. Progesterone treatment resulted in a significant preservation of pyramidal neurons in CA1 and CA2 (40% and 62% remaining neurons), with no ventricular dilation and only a mild (12%) cortical shrinkage. Results suggest that progesterone is able to interfere with some late pathophysiological mechanisms leading both to selective neuronal damage in the hippocampal CA1 and CA2 subfields, and to shrinkage of the cerebral cortex. 相似文献

The RNA-binding protein HuD binds to and stabilizes a number of neuronal-specific mRNAs. Recent work from our laboratory indicated that HuD expression is increased in neurons during peripheral nerve regeneration. To gain further insight into the function of this protein in CNS neurons we examined the levels of expression and localization of HuD in hippocampal neurons under normal conditions and in animals subjected to a learning paradigm, contextual fear conditioning (CFC). In the adult hippocampal formation, HuD immunoreactivity was highest in CA3 pyramidal neurons and interneurons in the hilus, moderate in the CA1 region and not detectable in dentate granule cells. Using confocal microscopy we found that HuD immunoreactivity was associated with large cytoplasmic granules in the neuronal cell body and smaller granules in dendrites. Both types of granules were also stained with the ribosomal marker Y10B, suggesting that they also contain ribosomes. Consistent with this idea, subcellular fractionation and immunoprecipitation analyses indicated that HuD is present in both the polysomal (P130) and cytosolic (S130) fraction. In addition to the basal pattern of HuD expression, we examined changes in the levels of this protein 24 h after rats were subjected to a single trial CFC paradigm. HuD protein expression was found to increase in the hilus and CA3 regions of the hippocampus but not in CA1. Our findings suggest that HuD plays a role in synaptic plasticity mechanisms stabilizing mRNAs associated with ribosomes both in the soma and dendrites of hippocampal neurons. 相似文献

Under conditions of limited nutrients, eukaryotic cells reprogram protein expression in a way that slows growth but enhances survival. Recent data implicate stress granules, discrete cytoplasmic foci into which untranslated mRNPs are assembled during stress, in this process. In the October 1, 2011, issue of Genes & Development, Damgaard and Lykke-Andersen (p. 2057-2068) provide mechanistic insights into the regulation of a specific subset of mRNAs bearing 5'-terminal oligopyrimidine tracts (5'TOPs) by the structurally related stress granule proteins TIA-1 and TIAR. 相似文献

Hippocampal CA1 pyramidal neurons are sensitive to ischemic damage. However, the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying neuronal cell death caused by ischemia–reperfusion (I/R) are not completely clear. Here, we report that the ephrinA/EphA cell–cell interaction signaling pathway plays an important role in the apoptosis of hippocampal CA1 pyramidal neurons induced by I/R. We found that the expression of ephrinA3 and EphA4 is increased in the CA1 region following transient forebrain ischemia. Blocking ephrinA3/EphA4 interaction by EphA4-Fc, an inhibitor of EphA4, attenuated apoptotic neuronal cell death, likely through the inhibition of caspase-3 activation. These results reveal a novel function of ephrin/Eph signaling in the regulation of apoptosis in CA1 pyramidal neurons after I/R. 相似文献

The crucial role of free cytosolic Ca2+ in ischemic neuronal damage has been studied in recent years. In the present report, changes in the intracellular Ca2+ concentration in the hippocampal CA1 area during transient global ischemia and reperfusion were measured using in vivo Ca2+ fluorometry with fura-2 in the four-vessel occlusion and reperfusion model in halothane-anesthetized rats. Marked changes were seen during 10-min global ischemia, with the intracellular Ca2+ concentration increasing gradually following application of the ischemic insult and rapidly about 2 min after the beginning of ischemia, and continuing to increase until reperfusion. On reperfusion, the intracellular Ca2+ concentration began to decrease and returned to the pre-ischemic level within 15 min. Induction of severe global ischemia was confirmed by the complete suppression of synaptic activity and the decrease in hippocampal temperature in the CA1 area. After seven days, CA1 pyramidal cell loss was observed histopathologically in the same rats which had undergone measurement of the intracellular Ca2+ concentration changes. In the present study, a temporal profile of the free cytosolic Ca2+ dynamics during ischemic and early post-ischemic period was determined in vivo. The results demonstrate that the intracellular Ca2+ concentration in the hippocampal CA1 area is transiently and markedly increased during a brief ischemia-inducing delayed neuronal death, implying that Ca2+ overload during cerebral ischemia is a possible cause of the delayed cell death of CA1 pyramidal neurons. 相似文献

小檗碱对大鼠全脑缺血后海马的保护作用 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
本研究室以往曾发现小檗碱具有预防脑缺血短期(7d)再灌流海马CA1迟发性神经元坏死(DND)的作用。本研究采用Pulsinelli-Brierley四血管阻塞(4VO)致大鼠全脑缺血模型,观察了小檗碱对脑缺血(2min)长期再灌流后海马的影响,并对脑缺血经短、长期再灌流对照及用药组大鼠进行了Morris水迷宫学习记忆能力检测。结果显示,小檗碱能有效的保护海马CA1区锥体细胞免于脑缺血后DND,经长期(3个月)再灌流后这种保护作用依然存在,细胞密度为168个/mm,占正常80.5%;对脑缺血经长期再灌流引起的海马CA2、CA3、CA4继发性神经无死亡也有明显的对抗作用。脑缺血短期(10d)再灌流后,大鼠表现为明显的学习障碍,潜伏期延长,但经多次训练后,大鼠在原平台象限泳距比其它非平台象限都显著长,表明尚有良好的空间记忆能力;脑缺血经长期再灌流后,其空间学习障碍加重、记忆能力也受到严重影响。而用药组缺血大鼠无论短期或长期再灌流后,均保存了良好的空间学习、记忆能力。表明脑缺血经长期再灌流后,海马的形态和学习、记忆能力比短期再灌时将进一步受损害,而小檗碱不但对短期再灌流有保护作用,对长期再灌流的进一步损害也有明显的? 相似文献

Dentate granule neurons give rise to some of the smallest unmyelinated fibers in the mammalian CNS, the hippocampal mossy fibers. These neurons are also key regulators of physiological and pathophysiological information flow through the hippocampus. We took a comparative approach to studying mossy fiber action potential initiation and propagation in hippocampal slices from juvenile rats. Dentate granule neurons exhibited axonal action potential initiation significantly more proximal than CA3 pyramidal neurons. This conclusion was suggested by phase plot analysis of somatic action potentials and by local tetrodotoxin application to the axon and somatodendritic compartments. This conclusion was also verified by immunostaining for voltage-gated sodium channel alpha subunits and by direct dual soma/axonal recordings. Dentate neurons exhibited a significantly higher action potential threshold and slower axonal conduction velocity than CA3 neurons. We conclude that while the electrotonically proximal axon location of action potential initiation allows granule neurons to sensitively detect and integrate synaptic inputs, the neurons are sluggish to initiate and propagate an action potential. 相似文献
