Abstract
The cognitive abilities of humans are distinctive among primates, but their molecular and cellular substrates are poorly understood. We used comparative single-nucleus transcriptomics to analyze samples of the middle temporal gyrus (MTG) from adult humans, chimpanzees, gorillas, rhesus macaques, and common marmosets to understand human-specific features of the neocortex. Human, chimpanzee, and gorilla MTG showed highly similar cell-type composition and laminar organization as well as a large shift in proportions of deep-layer intratelencephalic-projecting neurons compared with macaque and marmoset MTG. Microglia, astrocytes, and oligodendrocytes had more-divergent expression across species compared with neurons or oligodendrocyte precursor cells, and neuronal expression diverged more rapidly on the human lineage. Only a few hundred genes showed human-specific patterning, suggesting that relatively few cellular and molecular changes distinctively define adult human cortical structure.

Abstract
Binge drinking during adolescence increases the risk of alcohol use disorder, possibly by involving alterations of neuroimmune responses. Pleiotrophin (PTN) is a cytokine that inhibits Receptor Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase (RPTP) β/ζ. PTN and MY10, an RPTPβ/ζ pharmacological inhibitor, modulate ethanol behavioral and microglial responses in adult mice. Now, to study the contribution of endogenous PTN and the implication of its receptor RPTPβ/ζ in the neuroinflammatory response in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) after acute ethanol exposure in adolescence, we used MY10 (60 mg/kg) treatment and mice with transgenic PTN overexpression in the brain. Cytokine levels by X-MAP technology and gene expression of neuroinflammatory markers were determined 18 h after ethanol administration (6 g/kg) and compared with determinations performed 18 h after LPS administration (5 g/kg). Our data indicate that Ccl2, Il6, and Tnfa play important roles as mediators of PTN modulatory actions on the effects of ethanol in the adolescent PFC. The data suggest PTN and RPTPβ/ζ as targets to differentially modulate neuroinflammation in different contexts. In this regard, we identified for the first time important sex differences that affect the ability of the PTN/RPTPβ/ζ signaling pathway to modulate ethanol and LPS actions in the adolescent mouse brain.

Abstract
Pleiotrophin (PTN) is a cytokine that modulates ethanol drinking and reward and regulates glial responses in different contexts. PTN is an inhibitor of Receptor Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase (RPTP) β/ζ. Inhibition of RPTPβ/ζ reduces binge-like drinking in adult male mice. Whether inhibition of RPTPβ/ζ is effective in reducing ethanol consumption during adolescence and in both sexes remained to be studied. In this work, male and female adolescent mice underwent an intermittent access to ethanol (IAE) 2-bottle choice protocol. Treatment with MY10 (60 mg/kg, i.g.), a small-molecule RPTPβ/ζ inhibitor, reduced chronic 3-week ethanol consumption only in male mice. We detected an ethanol-induced overall decrease in hippocampal GFAPir and Iba1ir, independently of the treatment received, suggesting that RPTPβ/ζ is not key in the regulation of IAE-induced glial responses. However, we found a significant negative correlation between the size of microglial cells and the number of hippocampal neuronal progenitors only in male mice after IAE. This correlation was disrupted by treatment with MY10 before each drinking session, which may be related to the ability of MY10 to regulate the intensity of the perineuronal nets (PNNs) in the hippocampus in a sex-dependent manner. The data show for the first time that inhibition of RPTPβ/ζ reduces chronic voluntary ethanol consumption in adolescent mice in a sex-dependent manner. In addition, we show evidence for sex-specific differences in the effects of IAE on glial responses and hippocampal neurogenesis, which may be related to different actions of the RPTPβ/ζ signalling pathway in the brains of male and female mice.

Abstract
Protein tyrosine phosphatases, together with protein tyrosine kinases, control many molecular signaling steps that control life at cellular and organismal levels. Impairing alterations in the genes encoding the involved proteins is expected to profoundly affect the quality of life-if compatible with life at all. Here, we review the current knowledge on the effects of germline variants that have been reported for genes encoding a subset of the protein tyrosine phosphatase superfamily; that of the thirty seven classical members. The conclusion must be that the newest genome research tools produced an avalanche of data that suggest 'guilt by association' for individual genes to specific disorders. Future research should face the challenge to investigate these accusations thoroughly and convincingly, to reach a mature genotype-phenotype map for this intriguing protein family.

Abstract
Adolescence is a critical period for brain maturation in which this organ is more vulnerable to the damaging effects of ethanol. Administration of ethanol in mice induces a rapid cerebral upregulation of pleiotrophin (PTN), a cytokine that regulates the neuroinflammatory processes induced by different insults and the behavioral effects of ethanol. PTN binds Receptor Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase (RPTP) β/ζ and inhibits its phosphatase activity, suggesting that RPTPβ/ζ may be involved in the regulation of ethanol effects. To test this hypothesis, we have treated adolescent mice with the RPTPβ/ζ inhibitor MY10 (60 mg/kg) before an acute ethanol (6 g/kg) administration. Treatment with MY10 completely prevented the ethanol-induced neurogenic loss in the hippocampus of both male and female mice. In flow cytometry studies, ethanol tended to increase the number of NeuN+/activated Caspase-3+ cells particularly in female mice, but no significant effects were found. Ethanol increased Iba1+ cell area and the total marked area in the hippocampus of female mice, suggesting sex differences in ethanol-induced microgliosis. In addition, ethanol reduced the circulating levels of IL-6 and IL-10 in both sexes, although this reduction was only found significant in males and not affected by MY10 treatment. Interestingly, MY10 alone increased the total marked area and the number of Iba1+ cells only in the female hippocampus, but tended to reduce the circulating levels of TNF-α only in male mice. In summary, the data identify a novel modulatory role of RPTPβ/ζ on ethanol-induced loss of hippocampal neurogenesis, which seems unrelated to glial and inflammatory responses. The data also suggest sex differences in RPTPβ/ζ function that may be relevant to immune responses and ethanol-induced microglial responses.

World J Psychiatry 2022; 12:904-914. [PMID: 36051605 PMCID: PMC9331447 DOI: 10.5498/wjp.v12.i7.904] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/28/2022] [Revised: 05/02/2022] [Accepted: 06/17/2022] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Schizophrenia (SCZ) is a complex disease which can be affected by both genetic and environmental factors. Prenatal famine exposure may cause changes in DNA methylation levels of genes. Meanwhile, maternal nutrition during pregnancy is a pivotal environmental factor in the development of SCZ. DNA methylation may be an intermediate factor mediating exposure to famine during pregnancy and SCZ, and DNA methylation quantitative trait loci might serve as a promising tool for linking SCZ and prenatal famine.
AIM To analyze the association between prenatal famine exposure and SCZ risk in Northeast Han Chinese through analysis of DNA methylation related loci.
METHODS A total of 954 Han Chinese from Northeast China were recruited, including 443 patients with SCZ and 511 healthy controls. The participants were further divided into famine (born in 1960-1962) and non-famine (born in 1963-1965) groups to investigate the effect of prenatal famine exposure. Four single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) selected according to the relevant literature were genotyped, namely, rs11917047 in PTPRG, rs2239681 in IGF2, rs3842756 in INSIGF, and rs61955196 in ABCB9. DNA were extracted from peripheral blood samples, and the genotypes of these SNP loci were detected using the improved Multiple Ligase Detection Reaction multiple SNP typing technique. The associations of the DNA methylation related SNPs with SCZ risk and prenatal famine, and their interactions were analyzed using logistic regression analysis and generalized multifactor dimensionality reduction (GMDR) software.
RESULTS Based on the sequencing data, genotype distributions and allele frequencies of the four selected SNPs were determined. All genotype frequencies of the four SNPs in the healthy control group were tested for deviation from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (P > 0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that rs61955196 was significantly associated with SCZ risk in the log-additive model [odds ratio (OR): 1.22; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.01-1.48; P = 0.040]. We also found that the rs61955196 allele was related with an enhanced risk of SCZ (G>C, OR: 1.22; 95%CI: 1.01-1.47; P = 0.042). However, no associations were observed between rs11917047, rs2239681, or rs3842756 and SCZ risk. Under the optimal genetic model, no significant association of famine with the four SNPs was seen. Though the gene–gene interactions between rs2239681 and rs61955196 were found in GMDR analysis, none of the gene-gene interactions and gene-famine interactions were associated with the risk of SCZ.
CONCLUSION Our study suggested that rs61955196 in ABCB9 is associated with SCZ susceptibility in Northeast Han Chinese, providing insight into genetic effects on SCZ.

[PMID: 35053232 PMCID: PMC8773835 DOI: 10.3390/biom12010084] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/17/2021] [Revised: 12/30/2021] [Accepted: 12/30/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor gamma (PTPRG) is known to interact with and regulate several tyrosine kinases, exerting a tumor suppressor role in several type of cancers. Its wide expression in human tissues compared to the other component of group 5 of receptor phosphatases, PTPRZ expressed as a chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan in the central nervous system, has raised interest in its role as a possible regulatory switch of cell signaling processes. Indeed, a carbonic anhydrase-like domain (CAH) and a fibronectin type III domain are present in the N-terminal portion and were found to be associated with its role as [HCO3-] sensor in vascular and renal tissues and a possible interaction domain for cell adhesion, respectively. Studies on PTPRG ligands revealed the contactins family (CNTN) as possible interactors. Furthermore, the correlation of PTPRG phosphatase with inflammatory processes in different normal tissues, including cancer, and the increasing amount of its soluble form (sPTPRG) in plasma, suggest a possible role as inflammatory marker. PTPRG has important roles in human diseases; for example, neuropsychiatric and behavioral disorders and various types of cancer such as colon, ovary, lung, breast, central nervous system, and inflammatory disorders. In this review, we sum up our knowledge regarding the latest discoveries in order to appreciate PTPRG function in the various tissues and diseases, along with an interactome map of its relationship with a group of validated molecular interactors.

Abstract
Protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor-ζ1 (PTPRZ1) is a transmembrane
tyrosine phosphatase receptor highly expressed in embryonic stem cells. In the
present work, gene expression analyses of Ptprz1−/− and Ptprz1+/+ mice endothelial cells and hearts pointed to
an unidentified role of PTPRZ1 in heart development through the regulation of
heart-specific transcription factor genes. Echocardiography analysis in mice
identified that both systolic and diastolic functions are affected in Ptprz1−/− compared with Ptprz1+/+ hearts, based on a dilated left
ventricular (LV) cavity, decreased ejection fraction and fraction shortening,
and increased angiogenesis in Ptprz1−/−
hearts, with no signs of cardiac hypertrophy. A zebrafish ptprz1−/− knockout was also generated and exhibited
misregulated expression of developmental cardiac markers, bradycardia, and
defective heart morphogenesis characterized by enlarged ventricles and defected
contractility. A selective PTPRZ1 tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor affected
zebrafish heart development and function in a way like what is observed in the
ptprz1−/− zebrafish. The same
inhibitor had no effect in the function of the adult zebrafish heart, suggesting
that PTPRZ1 is not important for the adult heart function, in line with data
from the human cell atlas showing very low to negligible PTPRZ1 expression in
the adult human heart. However, in line with the animal models, Ptprz1 was expressed in many different cell types in
the human fetal heart, such as valvar, fibroblast-like, cardiomyocytes, and
endothelial cells. Collectively, these data suggest that PTPRZ1 regulates
cardiac morphogenesis in a way that subsequently affects heart function and
warrant further studies for the involvement of PTPRZ1 in idiopathic congenital
cardiac pathologies. NEW & NOTEWORTHY Protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor
ζ1 (PTPRZ1) is expressed in fetal but not adult heart and seems
to affect heart development. In both mouse and zebrafish animal models, loss of
PTPRZ1 results in dilated left ventricle cavity, decreased ejection fraction,
and fraction shortening, with no signs of cardiac hypertrophy. PTPRZ1 also seems
to be involved in atrioventricular canal specification, outflow tract
morphogenesis, and heart angiogenesis. These results suggest that PTPRZ1 plays a
role in heart development and support the hypothesis that it may be involved in
congenital cardiac pathologies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Genome-wide analyses of antidepressant response have suggested that genes initially associated with risk for schizophrenia may also serve as promising candidates for selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) efficacy. Protein tyrosine phosphatase, receptor-type, zeta-1 (PTPRZ1) has previously been shown to be associated with schizophrenia, but it has not been investigated as a predictor of antidepressant efficacy. The main objective of the study was to assess whether SSRI-mediated depressive and anxiety symptom remission in Chinese patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) are associated with specific PTPRZ1 variants. METHODS Two independent cohorts were investigated, the first sample (N = 344) received an SSRI (i.e. fluoxetine, sertraline, citalopram, escitalopram, fluvoxamine, or paroxetine) for 8 weeks. The second sample (N = 160) only received escitalopram for 8 weeks. Hamilton Depression and Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale scores at 8-weeks post-baseline in both cohorts were used to determine remission status. Five PTPRZ1 variants (rs12154537, rs6466810, rs6466808, rs6955395, and rs1918031) were genotyped in both cohorts. RESULTS Anxiety symptom remission was robustly associated with PTPRZ1 rs12154537 (P = 0.004) and the G-G-G-G haplotype (rs12154537-rs6466810-rs6466808-rs6955395; P = 0.005) in cohort 2 but not cohort 1 (mixed SSRI use). Associations with depressive symptom remission did not survive correction for multiple testing. CONCLUSIONS These findings suggest that PTPRZ1 variants may serve as a marker of escitalopram-mediated anxiety symptom remission in MDD.

Prolonged Consumption of Sweetened Beverages Lastingly Deteriorates Cognitive Functions and Reward Processing in Mice. Cereb Cortex 2021; 32:1365-1378. [PMID: 34491298 DOI: 10.1093/cercor/bhab274] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/27/2021] [Revised: 07/10/2021] [Accepted: 07/12/2021] [Indexed: 12/25/2022] Open
Abstract
We investigated the detrimental effects of chronic consumption of sweet or sweetened beverages in mice. We report that consumption of beverages containing small amounts of sucrose during several weeks impaired reward systems. This is evidenced by robust changes in the activation pattern of prefrontal brain regions associated with abnormal risk-taking and delayed establishment of decision-making strategy. Supporting these findings, we find that chronic consumption of low doses of artificial sweeteners such as saccharin disrupts brain regions' activity engaged in decision-making and reward processes. Consequently, this leads to the rapid development of inflexible decisions, particularly in a subset of vulnerable individuals. Our data also reveal that regular consumption, even at low doses, of sweet or sweeteners dramatically alters brain neurochemistry, i.e., dopamine content and turnover, and high cognitive functions, while sparing metabolic regulations. Our findings suggest that it would be relevant to focus on long-term consequences on the brain of sweet or sweetened beverages in humans, especially as they may go metabolically unnoticed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Schizophrenia is a serious mental illness that affects more than 21 million people worldwide. Both genetics and the environment play a role in its etiology and pathogenesis. Symptoms of schizophrenia are mainly categorized into positive, negative, and cognitive. One major approach to identify and understand these diverse symptoms in humans has been to study behavioral phenotypes in a range of animal models of schizophrenia. OBJECTIVE We aimed to provide a comprehensive review of the behavioral tasks commonly used for measuring schizophrenia-like behaviors in rodents together with an update of the recent study findings. METHODS Articles describing phenotypes of schizophrenia-like behaviors in various animal models were collected through a literature search in Google Scholar, PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus, with a focus on advances over the last 10 years. RESULTS Numerous studies have used a range of animal models and behavioral paradigms of schizophrenia to develop antipsychotic drugs for improved therapeutics. In establishing animal models of schizophrenia, the candidate models were evaluated for schizophrenia-like behaviors using several behavioral tasks for positive, negative, and cognitive symptoms designed to verify human symptoms of schizophrenia. Such validated animal models were provided as rapid preclinical avenues for drug testing and mechanistic studies. CONCLUSION Based on the most recent advances in the field, it is apparent that a myriad of behavior tests are needed to confirm and evaluate the congruency of animal models with the numerous behaviors and clinical signs exhibited by patients with schizophrenia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND CA1 subregion of the hippocampal formation is one of the primarily affected structures in AD, yet not much is known about proteome alterations in the extracellular milieu of this region. OBJECTIVE In this study, we aimed to identify the protein expression alterations throughout the pre-pathological, progression and pathological stages of AD mouse model. METHODS The CA1 region perfusates were collected by in-vivo intracerebral push-pull perfusion from transgenic 5XFAD mice and their non-transgenic littermates at 3, 6 and 12 wereβmonths of age. Morris water maze test and immunohistochemistry staining of A performed to determine the stages of the disease in this mouse model. The protein expression differences were analyzed by label-free shotgun proteomics analysis. RESULTS A total of 251, 213 and 238 proteins were identified in samples obtained from CA1 regions of mice at 3, 6 and 12 months of age, respectively. Of these, 68, 41 and 33 proteins showed statistical significance. Pathway analysis based on the unique and common proteins within the groups revealed that several pathways are dysregulated during different stages of AD. The alterations in glucose and lipid metabolisms respectively in pre-pathologic and progression stages of the disease, lead to imbalances in ROS production via diminished SOD level and impairment of neuronal integrity. CONCLUSION We conclude that CA1 region-specific proteomic analysis of hippocampal degeneration may be useful in identifying the earliest as well as progressional changes that are associated with Alzheimer's disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pleiotrophin (PTN) and midkine (MK) are cytokines that are up-regulated in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) after alcohol administration and have been shown to reduce alcohol intake and reward. Both cytokines are endogenous inhibitors of receptor protein tyrosine phosphatase (RPTP) β/ζ (a.k.a. PTPRZ1). Recently, a new compound named MY10 was designed with the aim of mimicking the activity of PTN and MK. MY10 has already shown promising results regulating alcohol-related behaviors in mice. METHODS We have now tested the effects of MY10 on alcohol operant self-administration and Drinking In the Dark-Multiple Scheduled Access (DID-MSA) paradigms in rats. Gene expression of relevant genes in the PTN/MK signaling pathway in the PFC was analyzed by real-time PCR. RESULTS MY10, at the highest dose tested (100 mg/kg), reduced alcohol consumption in the alcohol operant self-administration paradigm (p = 0.040). In the DID-MSA paradigm, rats drank significantly less alcohol (p = 0.019) and showed a significant decrease in alcohol preference (p = 0.002). We observed that the longer the exposure to alcohol, the greater the suppressing effects of MY10 on alcohol consumption. It was demonstrated that the effects of MY10 were specific to alcohol since saccharin intake was not affected by MY10 (p = 0.804). MY10 prevented the alcohol-induced down-regulation of Ptprz1 (p = 0.004) and anaplastic lymphoma kinase (Alk; p = 0.013) expression. CONCLUSIONS Our results support and provide further evidence regarding the efficacy of MY10 on alcohol-related behaviors and suggest the consideration of the blockade of RPTPβ/ζ as a target for reducing excessive alcohol consumption.

Abstract
Available studies demonstrate that receptor-type tyrosine-protein phosphatase zeta (PTPRZ1) is expressed in different tumor tissues, and functions in cell proliferation, cell adhesion and migration, epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition, cancer stem cells and treatment resistance by interacting with or binding to several molecules. These included pleiotrophin (PTN), midkine, interleukin-34, β-catenin, VEGF, NF-κB, HIF-2, PSD-95, MAGI-3, contactin and ErbB4. PTPRZ1 was involved in survival signaling and could predict the prognosis of several tumors. This review discusses: the current knowledge about PTPRZ1, its expression, co-receptors, ligands, functions, signaling pathway, prognostic values and therapeutic agents that target PTPRZ1.

Abstract
Synapses are specialized neuronal cell-cell contacts that underlie network communication in the mammalian brain. Across neuronal populations and circuits, a diverse set of synapses is utilized, and they differ in their molecular composition to enable heterogenous connectivity patterns and functions. In addition to pre- and post-synaptic specializations, the synaptic cleft is now understood to be an integral compartment of synapses that contributes to their structural and functional organization. Aiming to map the cleft proteome, this study applied a peroxidase-mediated proximity labeling approach and used the excitatory synaptic cell adhesion protein SynCAM 1 fused to horseradish peroxidase (HRP) as a reporter in cultured cortical neurons. This reporter marked excitatory synapses as measured by confocal microcopy and was targeted to the edge zone of the synaptic cleft as determined using 3D dSTORM super-resolution imaging. Proximity labeling with a membrane-impermeant biotin-phenol compound restricted labeling to the cell surface, and Label-Free Quantitation (LFQ) mass spectrometry combined with ratiometric HRP tagging of membrane vs. synaptic surface proteins was used to identify the proteomic content of excitatory clefts. Novel cleft candidates were identified, and Receptor-type tyrosine-protein phosphatase zeta was selected and successfully validated. This study supports the robust applicability of peroxidase-mediated proximity labeling for synaptic cleft proteomics and its potential for understanding synapse heterogeneity in health and changes in diseases such as psychiatric disorders and addiction.

Abstract
Rodents emit ultrasonic vocalizations (USVs) to communicate the presence of positive or negative emotional states and to coordinate social interactions. On this basis, USVs are increasingly being used as a behavioral readout in rodent studies of affect, motivation and social behavior. Notably, several investigations have demonstrated that rodents emit USVs when tested in experimental paradigms that are used in preclinical studies of psychiatric and neurological diseases. Moreover, it has been shown that calling behavior may be influenced by genetic and/or environmental factors (i.e., stress), early rearing conditions that have been implicated in brain disease, as well as psychoactive drugs. Hence, measuring USV emissions has emerged as a useful tool in studying the mechanisms that underlie the emotional disturbances featuring certain brain diseases, as well as in the development of suited pharmacological therapies. This review provides an overview of the behavioral significance of USV emissions and describes the contexts that promote calling behavior in rats and mice. Moreover, the review summarizes the current evidence concerning the use of USVs as a marker of affect in rat and mouse models of sociability, psychiatric diseases and neurological diseases, and discusses the strengths and current limitations of using USVs as a behavioral readout in rodent studies of emotional behavior. This article is part of the Special Issue entitled 'The neuropharmacology of social behavior: from bench to bedside'.

Abstract
Interstitial deletions of chromosome 3p are rare, and specific genotype-phenotype correlations cannot always be assessed. We report the case of a 3p14.2 proximal microdeletion in a 60-year-old female patient with mild intellectual disability, severe speech delay, and mild dysmorphism. An array-CGH analysis detected a 500-kb deletion in the 3p14.2 region, including FEZF2, CADPS, and PTPRG. FEZF2 and CADPS are known to network within the neurodevelopmental pathways. It is possible that their rearrangements lead to the phenotypic features observed in the patient, and therefore, they can be considered candidate genes responsible for such abnormalities.
