Prefrontal cortex-specific Dcc deletion induces schizophrenia-related behavioral phenotypes and fail to be rescued by olanzapine treatment. Eur J Pharmacol 2023; 956:175940.

Abstract
Multiple genome studies have discovered that variation in deleted in colorectal carcinoma (Dcc) at transcription and translation level were associated with the occurrences of psychiatric disorders. Yet, little is known about the function of Dcc in schizophrenia (SCZ)-related behavioral abnormalities and the efficacy of antipsychotic drugs in vivo. Here, we used an animal model of prefrontal cortex-specific knockdown (KD) of Dcc in adult C57BL/6 mice to study the attention deficits and impaired locomotor activity. Our results supported a critical role of Dcc deletion in SCZ-related behaviors. Notably, olanzapine rescued the SCZ-related behaviors in the MK801-treated mice but not in the cortex-specific Dcc KD mice, indicating that Dcc play a critical in the mechanism of antipsychotic effects of olanzapine. Knockdown of Dcc in prefrontal cortex results in glutamatergic dysfunction, including defects in glutamine synthetase and postsynaptic maturation. As one of the major risk factors of the degree of antipsychotic response, Dcc deletion-induced glutamatergic dysfunction may be involved in the underlying mechanism of treatment resistance of olanzapine. Our findings identified Dcc deletion-mediated SCZ-related behavioral defects, which serve as a valuable animal model for study of SCZ and amenable to targeted investigations in mechanistic hypotheses of the mechanism underlying glutamatergic dysfunction-induced antipsychotic treatment resistance.

Abstract
Adult hippocampal neurogenesis (AHN) gives rise to new neurons throughout life. This phenomenon takes place in more than 120 mammalian species, including humans, yet its occurrence in the latter was questioned after one study proposed the putative absence of neurogenesis markers in the adult human hippocampus. In this regard, we showed that prolonged fixation impedes the visualization of Doublecortin+ immature neurons in this structure, whereas other authors have suggested that a dilated post-mortem delay (PMD) underlies these discrepancies. Nevertheless, the individual and/or additive contribution of fixation and the PMD to the detection (or lack thereof) of other AHN markers has not been studied to date. To address this pivotal question, we used a tightly controlled experimental design in mice, which allowed the dissection of the relative contribution of the aforementioned factors to the visualization of markers of individual AHN stages. Fixation time emerged as the most prominent factor globally impeding the study of this process in mice. Moreover, the visualization of other particularly sensitive epitopes was further prevented by prolonged PMD. These results are crucial to disambiguate current controversies related to the occurrence of AHN not only in humans but also in other mammalian species.

Abstract
The hippocampus hosts the continuous addition of new neurons throughout life-a phenomenon named adult hippocampal neurogenesis (AHN). Here we revisit the occurrence of AHN in more than 110 mammalian species, including humans, and discuss the further validation of these data by single-cell RNAseq and other alternative techniques. In this regard, our recent studies have addressed the long-standing controversy in the field, namely whether cells positive for AHN markers are present in the adult human dentate gyrus (DG). Here we review how we developed a tightly controlled methodology, based on the use of high-quality brain samples (characterized by short postmortem delays and ≤24 h of fixation in freshly prepared 4% paraformaldehyde), to address human AHN. We review that the detection of AHN markers in samples fixed for 24 h required mild antigen retrieval and chemical elimination of autofluorescence. However, these steps were not necessary for samples subjected to shorter fixation periods. Moreover, the detection of labile epitopes (such as Nestin) in the human hippocampus required the use of mild detergents. The application of this strictly controlled methodology allowed reconstruction of the entire AHN process, thus revealing the presence of neural stem cells, proliferative progenitors, neuroblasts, and immature neurons at distinct stages of differentiation in the human DG. The data reviewed here demonstrate that methodology is of utmost importance when studying AHN by means of distinct techniques across the phylogenetic scale. In this regard, we summarize the major findings made by our group that emphasize that overlooking fundamental technical principles might have consequences for any given research field.

Abstract
Biocompatibility of cutting-edge neural implants, surgical tools and techniques, and therapeutic technologies is a challenging concept that can be easily misjudged. For example, neural interfaces are routinely gauged on how effectively they determine active neurons near their recording sites. Tissue integration and toxicity of neural interfaces are frequently assessed histologically in animal models to determine tissue morphological and cellular changes in response to surgical implantation and chronic presence. A disconnect between histological and efficacious biocompatibility exists, however, as neuronal numbers frequently observed near electrodes do not match recorded neuronal spiking activity. The downstream effects of the myriad surgical and experimental factors involved in such studies are rarely examined when deciding whether a technology or surgical process is biocompatible. Such surgical factors as anesthesia, temperature excursions, bleed incidence, mechanical forces generated, and metabolic conditions are known to have strong systemic and thus local cellular and extracellular consequences. Many tissue markers are extremely sensitive to the physiological state of cells and tissues, thus significantly impacting histological accuracy. This review aims to shed light on commonly overlooked factors that can have a strong impact on the assessment of neural biocompatibility and to address the mismatch between results stemming from functional and histological methods.

Abstract
Recently, a population of "immature" neurons generated prenatally, retaining immaturity for long periods and finally integrating in adult circuits has been described in the cerebral cortex. Moreover, comparative studies revealed differences in occurrence/rate of different forms of neurogenic plasticity across mammals, the "immature" neurons prevailing in gyrencephalic species. To extend experimentation from laboratory mice to large-brained mammals, including humans, it is important to detect cell markers of neurogenic plasticity in brain tissues obtained from different procedures (e.g., post-mortem/intraoperative specimens vs. intracardiac perfusion). This variability overlaps with species-specific differences in antigen distribution or antibody species specificity, making it difficult for proper comparison. In this work, we detect the presence of doublecortin and Ki67 antigen, markers for neuronal immaturity and cell division, in six mammals characterized by widely different brain size. We tested seven commercial antibodies in four selected brain regions known to host immature neurons (paleocortex, neocortex) and newly born neurons (hippocampus, subventricular zone). In selected human brains, we confirmed the specificity of DCX antibody by performing co-staining with fluorescent probe for DCX mRNA. Our results indicate that, in spite of various types of fixations, most differences were due to the use of different antibodies and the existence of real interspecies variation.

Abstract
Terreros-Roncal et al. investigated the impacts of human neurodegeneration on immunostainings assumed to be associated with neurogenesis. However, the study provides no evidence that putative proliferating cells are linked to neurogenesis, that multipolar nestin+ astrocytes are progenitors, or that mature-looking doublecortin+ neurons are adult-born. Their histology-marker expression differs from what is observed in species where adult hippocampal neurogenesis is well documented.

Positive Controls in Adults and Children Support That Very Few, If Any, New Neurons Are Born in the Adult Human Hippocampus. J Neurosci 2021; 41:2554-2565.

Abstract
Adult hippocampal neurogenesis was originally discovered in rodents. Subsequent studies identified the adult neural stem cells and found important links between adult neurogenesis and plasticity, behavior, and disease. However, whether new neurons are produced in the human dentate gyrus (DG) during healthy aging is still debated. We and others readily observe proliferating neural progenitors in the infant hippocampus near immature cells expressing doublecortin (DCX), but the number of such cells decreases in children and few, if any, are present in adults. Recent investigations using dual antigen retrieval find many cells stained by DCX antibodies in adult human DG. This has been interpreted as evidence for high rates of adult neurogenesis, even at older ages. However, most of these DCX-labeled cells have mature morphology. Furthermore, studies in the adult human DG have not found a germinal region containing dividing progenitor cells. In this Dual Perspectives article, we show that dual antigen retrieval is not required for the detection of DCX in multiple human brain regions of infants or adults. We review prior studies and present new data showing that DCX is not uniquely expressed by newly born neurons: DCX is present in adult amygdala, entorhinal and parahippocampal cortex neurons despite being absent in the neighboring DG. Analysis of available RNA-sequencing datasets supports the view that DG neurogenesis is rare or absent in the adult human brain. To resolve the conflicting interpretations in humans, it is necessary to identify and visualize dividing neuronal precursors or develop new methods to evaluate the age of a neuron at the single-cell level.

Abstract
Hydroxytyrosol (HT), the main phenolic compound in olives and olive products, has antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective, and other physiological functions. The effects of HT on depression are unclear. The aim of this study was to explore the effects of HT on chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) induced depressive-like behaviors. Mice were exposed to CUMS for 9 weeks and then treated with HT beginning in the second week and continuing for 7 weeks. Behavioral, biochemical, and molecular tests were conducted at the end of the experiment. The sucrose preference was significantly decreased in the CUMS group versus the healthy control group. Also, immobility times in forced swimming and tail suspension tests were increased in CUMS-induced mice, but treatment with HT significantly reversed this change. HT ameliorated oxidative stress in CUMS-exposed mice by enhancing superoxide dismutase activity and reducing reactive oxygen species and malondialdehyde levels in the hippocampus. HT administration significantly suppressed microglia activation and inhibited the expression of tumor necrosis factor alpha and interleukin 1 beta in the hippocampus versus the untreated group. The expression level of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and the number of GFAP-immunoreactive astrocytes in the hippocampus were significantly augmented by HT. Furthermore, HT treatment increased the expression of hippocampal brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), phosphorylated tropomyosin receptor kinase B (p-TrkB), and phosphorylated c-AMP response element binding protein (p-CREB) compared with the untreated CUMS group. Overall, HT improved CUMS-induced depressive-like behaviors in mice by alleviating oxidative stress and neuroinflammation and by enhancing the BDNF/TrkB/CREB signaling pathway.
