Dos Santos MB, de Oliveira Guarnieri L, Lunardi P, Schenatto Pereira G. On the effect of social cue valence in contextual memory persistence. Behav Brain Res 2023; 447:114398. [PMID: 36966939 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbr.2023.114398] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2023] [Revised: 02/13/2023] [Accepted: 03/10/2023] [Indexed: 04/15/2023]
Abstract
Social cues are valuable sensorial stimuli to the acquisition and retrieval of contextual memories. Here, we asked whether the valence of social cues would impact the formation of contextual memories. Adult male C57/BL6 mice were exposed to either conditioned place preference (CPP) or avoidance (CPA). As positive stimuli we used social interaction with a female (IF), while interaction with a male CD1 mice (IM) was used as negative stimulus. Contextual memory was tested 24 h and 7 days after conditioning. Aggressive behavior of CD1, as well as interaction with the female were quantified along the conditioning sessions. IM, but not IF, was salient enough to induce contextual memory estimated by the difference between the time in the conditioned context during test and habituation. Next, we chose two odors with innate behavioral responses and opposite valence to narrow down the sociability to one of its sensorial sources of information - the olfaction. We used urine from females in proestrus (U) and 2,4,5-trimethyl thiazoline (TMT), a predator odor. TMT decreased and U increased the time in the conditioned context during the test performed 24 h and 7 days after conditioning. Taken together, our results suggest that contextual memories conditioned to social encounters are difficult to stablish in mice, specially the one with positive valence. On the other hand, using odors with ecological relevance is a promising strategy to study long-term contextual memories with opposite valences. Ultimately, the behavioral protocol proposed here offers the advantage of studying contextual memories with opposite valences using unconditioned stimulus from the same sensorial category such as olfaction.

Abstract
As a major proton-gated cation channel, acid-sensitive ion channels (ASICs) can perceive large extracellular pH changes. ASICs play an important role in the occurrence and development of diseases of various organs and tissues including in the heart, brain, and gastrointestinal tract, as well as in tumor proliferation, invasion, and metastasis in acidosis and regulation of an acidic microenvironment. The permeability of ASICs to sodium and calcium ions is the basis of their physiological and pathological roles in the body. This review summarizes the physiological and pathological mechanisms of ASICs in digestive system diseases, which plays an important role in the early diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of digestive system diseases related to ASIC expression.

Abstract
Oxidative stress is intimately tied to neurodegenerative diseases, including Parkinson's disease and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and acute injuries, such as ischemic stroke and traumatic brain injury. Acid sensing ion channel 1a (ASIC1a), a proton-gated ion channel, has been shown to be involved in the pathogenesis of these diseases. However, whether oxidative stress affects the expression of ASIC1a remains elusive. In the current study, we examined the effect of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), a major reactive oxygen species (ROS), on ASIC1a protein expression and channel function in NS20Y cells and primary cultured mouse cortical neurons. We found that treatment of the cells with H2O2 (20 µM) for 6 h or longer increased ASIC1a protein expression and ASIC currents without causing significant cell injury. H2O2 incubation activated mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) pathways, including the extracellular signal-regulated kinase1/2 (ERK1/2), c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), and p38 pathways. We found that neither inhibition of the MEK/ERK pathway by U0126 nor inhibition of the p38 pathway by SB203580 affected H2O2-induced ASIC1a expression, whereas inhibition of the JNK pathway by SP600125 potently decreased ASIC1a expression and abolished the H2O2-mediated increase in ASIC1a expression and ASIC currents. Furthermore, we found that H2O2 pretreatment increased the sensitivity of ASIC currents to the ASIC1a inhibitor PcTx1, providing additional evidence that H2O2 increases the expression of functional ASIC1a channels. Together, our data demonstrate that H2O2 increases ASIC1a expression/activation through the JNK signaling pathway, which may provide insight into the pathogenesis of neurological disorders that involve both ROS and activation of ASIC1a.

[PMID: 30375184 PMCID: PMC6818262 DOI: 10.1111/gbb.12531] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/12/2018] [Revised: 10/19/2018] [Accepted: 10/19/2018] [Indexed: 12/01/2022]
Abstract
Pavlovian fear conditioning has been shown to depend on acid-sensing ion channel-1A (ASIC1A); however, it is unknown whether conditioning to rewarding stimuli also depends on ASIC1A. Here, we tested the hypothesis that ASIC1A contributes to Pavlovian conditioning to a non-drug reward. We found effects of ASIC1A disruption depended on the relationship between the conditional stimulus (CS) and the unconditional stimulus (US), which was varied between five experiments. In experiment 1, when the CS preceded the US signaling an upcoming reward, Asic1a-/- mice exhibited a deficit in conditioning compared to Asic1a+/+ mice. Alternatively, in experiment 2, when the CS coinitiated with the US and signaled immediate reward availability, the Asic1a-/- mice exhibited an increase in conditioned responses compared to Asic1a+/+ mice, which contrasted with the deficits in the first experiment. Furthermore, in experiments 3 and 4, when the CS partially overlapped in time with the US, or the CS was shortened and coinitiated with the US, the Asic1a-/- mice did not differ from control mice. The contrasting outcomes were likely because of differences in conditioning because in experiment 5 neither the Asic1a-/- nor Asic1a+/+ mice acquired conditioned responses when the CS and US were explicitly unpaired. Taken together, these results suggest that the effects of ASIC1A disruption on reward conditioning depend on the temporal relationship between the CS and US. Furthermore, these results suggest that ASIC1A plays a critical, yet nuanced role in Pavlovian conditioning. More research will be needed to deconstruct the roles of ASIC1A in these fundamental forms of learning and memory.

Acid-sensing ion channel 1a is involved in ischaemia/reperfusion induced kidney injury by increasing renal epithelia cell apoptosis. J Cell Mol Med 2019; 23:3429-3440. [PMID: 30793492 PMCID: PMC6484315 DOI: 10.1111/jcmm.14238] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/05/2018] [Revised: 12/28/2018] [Accepted: 01/31/2019] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Acidic microenvironment is commonly observed in ischaemic tissue. In the kidney, extracellular pH dropped from 7.4 to 6.5 within 10 minutes initiation of ischaemia. Acid‐sensing ion channels (ASICs) can be activated by pH drops from 7.4 to 7.0 or lower and permeates to Ca2+entrance. Thus, activation of ASIC1a can mediate the intracellular Ca2+ accumulation and play crucial roles in apoptosis of cells. However, the role of ASICs in renal ischaemic injury is unclear. The aim of the present study was to test the hypothesis that ischaemia increases renal epithelia cell apoptosis through ASIC1a‐mediated calcium entry. The results show that ASIC1a distributed in the proximal tubule with higher level in the renal tubule ischaemic injury both in vivo and in vitro. In vivo, Injection of ASIC1a inhibitor PcTx‐1 previous to ischaemia/reperfusion (I/R) operation attenuated renal ischaemic injury. In vitro, HK‐2 cells were pre‐treated with PcTx‐1 before hypoxia, the intracellular concentration of Ca2+, mitochondrial transmembrane potential (∆ψm) and apoptosis was measured. Blocking ASIC1a attenuated I/R induced Ca2+ overflow, loss of ∆ψm and apoptosis in HK‐2 cells. The results revealed that ASIC1a localized in the proximal tubular and contributed to I/R induced kidney injury. Consequently, targeting the ASIC1a may prove to be a novel strategy for AKI patients.
