Altered Striatal Synaptic Function and Abnormal Behaviour in Shank3 Exon4-9 Deletion Mouse Model of Autism / Thomas C. JARAMILLO in Autism Research, 9-3 (March 2016)

POWELL, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.350-375 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism spectrum disorder  Shank3  Phelan-McDermid syndrome  mouse model  grooming Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Shank3 is a multi-domain, synaptic scaffolding protein that organizes proteins in the postsynaptic density of excitatory synapses. Clinical studies suggest that ?0.5% of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) cases may involve SHANK3 mutation/deletion. Patients with SHANK3 mutations exhibit deficits in cognition along with delayed/impaired speech/language and repetitive and obsessive/compulsive-like (OCD-like) behaviors. To examine how mutation/deletion of SHANK3 might alter brain function leading to ASD, we have independently created mice with deletion of Shank3 exons 4-9, a region implicated in ASD patients. We find that homozygous deletion of exons 4-9 (Shank3e4-9 KO) results in loss of the two highest molecular weight isoforms of Shank3 and a significant reduction in other isoforms. Behaviorally, both Shank3e4-9 heterozygous (HET) and Shank3e4-9 KO mice display increased repetitive grooming, deficits in novel and spatial object recognition learning and memory, and abnormal ultrasonic vocalizations. Shank3e4-9 KO mice also display abnormal social interaction when paired with one another. Analysis of synaptosome fractions from striata of Shank3e4-9 KO mice reveals decreased Homer1b/c, GluA2, and GluA3 expression. Both Shank3e4-9 HET and KO demonstrated a significant reduction in NMDA/AMPA ratio at excitatory synapses onto striatal medium spiny neurons. Furthermore, Shank3e4-9 KO mice displayed reduced hippocampal LTP despite normal baseline synaptic transmission. Collectively these behavioral, biochemical and physiological changes suggest Shank3 isoforms have region-specific roles in regulation of AMPAR subunit localization and NMDAR function in the Shank3e4-9 mutant mouse model of autism.

Novel Shank3 mutant exhibits behaviors with face validity for autism and altered striatal and hippocampal function / Thomas C. JARAMILLO in Autism Research, 10-1 (January 2017)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism Research > 10-1 (January 2017) . - p.42-65 Titre : Novel Shank3 mutant exhibits behaviors with face validity for autism and altered striatal and hippocampal function Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Thomas C.

POWELL, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.42-65 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism spectrum disorder  Shank3  Phelan-McDermid syndrome  mouse model  social interaction  grooming Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Mutations/deletions in the SHANK3 gene are associated with autism spectrum disorders and intellectual disability. Here, we present electrophysiological and behavioral consequences in novel heterozygous and homozygous mice with a transcriptional stop cassette inserted upstream of the PDZ domain-coding exons in Shank3 (Shank3E13). Insertion of a transcriptional stop cassette prior to exon 13 leads to loss of the two higher molecular weight isoforms of Shank3. Behaviorally, both Shank3E13 heterozygous (HET) and homozygous knockout (KO) mice display increased repetitive grooming, deficits in social interaction tasks, and decreased rearing. Shank3E13 KO mice also display deficits in spatial memory in the Morris water maze task. Baseline hippocampal synaptic transmission and short-term plasticity are preserved in Shank3E13 HET and KO mice, while both HET and KO mice exhibit impaired hippocampal long-term plasticity. Additionally, Shank3E13 HET and KO mice display impaired striatal glutamatergic synaptic transmission. These results demonstrate for the first time in this novel Shank3 mutant that both homozygous and heterozygous mutation of Shank3 lead to behavioral abnormalities with face validity for autism along with widespread synaptic dysfunction.
