The Post-conditioning Acute Strength Exercise Facilitates Contextual Fear Memory Consolidation Via Hippocampal N-methyl-D-aspartate-receptors

Ana Karla Oliveira Leite, Clarissa Penha Farias, Bianca Estefani Schmidt, Lucas Teixeira, Alessandra Schmitt Rieder, Cristiane R. G. Furini, Angela T. S. Wyse

Summary: This study investigated the effects of acute strength exercise on memory consolidation and found that exercise can promote the consolidation of weak memory. This effect is dependent on the activation of NMDA-receptors, and exercise also modulates the overexpression of BDNF and synapsin I through the activation of NMDA-receptors.

Optogenetic inhibition of medial entorhinal cortex inputs to the hippocampus during a short period of time right after learning disrupts contextual fear memory formation

Min Soo Kang, Jin-Hee Han

Summary: The study suggests that the hippocampus receiving input from MEC plays a crucial role in the formation of contextual fear memory after learning. Optogenetic inhibition of MEC inputs within 5 minutes after learning reduces freezing behavior during retrieval test, while the same manipulation performed 30 minutes before retrieval test has no effect on fear memory.

TRPV1 modulation of contextual fear memory depends on stimulus intensity and endocannabinoid signalling in the dorsal hippocampus

Lia P. Iglesias, Heliana B. Fernandes, Aline S. de Miranda, Malena M. Perez, Lucia H. Faccioli, Carlos A. Sorgi, Leandro J. Bertoglio, Daniele C. Aguiar, Carsten T. Wotjak, Fabricio A. Moreira

Summary: This study found that hippocampal TRPV1 channels play a role in the modulation of fear memories. Endocannabinoid signaling may mediate the effects of TRPV1 blockers. The intensity of the aversive stimulus affects the regulation of fear memories by TRPV1 channels. TRPV1 blockers also promote the transcription of specific genes, leading to a decrease in fear memory reinstatement.

Impaired contextual fear conditioning in RasGRF2 mutant mice is likely Ras-ERK-dependent

Anastasia Olevska, Rainer Spanagel, Rick E. Bernardi

Summary: The Ras-ERK signaling pathway plays a crucial role in fear acquisition, with RasGRF2 contributing to contextual fear conditioning in mice. Knockout of RasGRF2 resulted in impaired acquisition of contextual fear, as evidenced by reduced freezing during fear conditioning and retention tests in comparison to wild type mice. This suggests that RasGRF2 is involved in contextual fear conditioning in an Ras-ERK-dependent manner.

Contextual fear conditioning regulates synapse-related gene transcription in mouse microglia

Zhiqian Yu, Mai Sakai, Hotaka Fukushima, Chiaki Ono, Yoshie Kikuchi, Ryuta Koyama, Ko Matsui, Tomoyuki Furuyashiki, Satoshi Kida, Hiroaki Tomita

Summary: This study characterized the transcription profile of microglia in a fear memory conditional mouse model, and found that synapse-related genes were induced while immune-related genes were reduced after fear memory consolidation. The expression of synapse-related genes reversed after fear memory extinction, but immune-related genes remained unchanged. The expression of neurotransmitter release regulators in hippocampal microglia was also found to be correlated with fear memory formation and extinction.

Summary: Recent studies have found MRI correlates of prospective anxiety symptoms in youth, but their predictive value is still uncertain. This study used machine-learning algorithms to predict clinical anxiety using MRI data and psychometric scores. The results showed that psychometric features were the main predictors for overall anxiety disorders, while MRI regional volumes were more valuable for predicting GAD. In conclusion, future clinical anxiety in non-anxious 14-year-old adolescents can be individually predicted using psychometric features, and including neuroanatomical data improves the prediction of GAD.

Summary: Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is a chronic and fatal disease with a high likelihood of relapse. This study identifies a mechanism involving the activity-regulated cytoskeleton-associated protein (Arc)/ARG3.1-dependent plasticity of amygdala synapses that selectively controls cue-induced alcohol relapse and AUD symptoms. In humans, single nucleotide polymorphisms and methylation in the ARC gene were associated with amygdala size and frequency of alcohol use, even at the onset of regular consumption. Targeting Arc during alcohol cue exposure may provide a new approach for relapse prevention.

Methyl-CpG binding protein 2 expression is associated with symptom severity in patients with PTSD in a sex-dependent manner

Livia Cosentino, Stephanie H. Witt, Helene Dukal, Francesca Zidda, Sebastian Siehl, Herta Flor, Bianca De Filippis

Summary: Traumatic events can lead to post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), which is more prevalent in women. Adverse childhood experiences (ACE) increase the risk of PTSD in adulthood. Epigenetic mechanisms, specifically a mutation in the methyl-CpG binding protein 2 (MECP2) in mice, contribute to susceptibility to PTSD-like alterations, with sex-dependent biological signatures. This study investigated whether the elevated risk of PTSD associated with ACE exposure is accompanied by decreased levels of MECP2 in the blood of humans, and if sex plays a role. Results revealed that among trauma-exposed women, downregulation of MECP2 was associated with increased PTSD symptoms linked to ACE exposure. The findings suggest that MECP2 expression may play a role in the pathophysiology of post-traumatic stress, warranting further research on its potential sex-dependent role in the onset and progression of PTSD.

Neural correlates of control over pain in fibromyalgia patients

Benjamin Mosch, Verena Hagena, Stephan Herpertz, Michaela Ruttorf, Martin Diers

Summary: The perceived lack of control over pain experience is a major contributor to agony and impaired quality of life in chronic pain patients, such as fibromyalgia (FM). This study used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to investigate how perceived control affects pain perception and the underlying neural mechanisms. The results showed that FM patients failed to activate brain areas involved in pain modulation and reappraisal processes, and exhibited disrupted functional connectivity and decreased gray matter volumes compared to healthy controls. These findings provide evidence for extensive impairments in pain modulation in FM.

Neuroplastic changes in functional wiring in sensory cortices of the congenitally deaf: A network analysis

Michaela Ruttorf, Zohar Tal, Lenia Amaral, Fang Fang, Yanchao Bi, Jorge Almeida

Summary: Congenital sensory deprivation induces significant changes in the brain's structure and function, leading to cross-modal plasticity and other neuroplastic alterations. In individuals with congenital deafness, there are observable changes in the visual and auditory networks, with the addition of a fourth community consisting of certain brain regions. These findings highlight the dynamic nature of the sensory systems and suggest that subcortical thalamic nuclei may play a role in rerouting visual information to the auditory cortex under congenital deafness.
