MeCP2-Dependent Transcriptional Repression Regulates Excitatory Neurotransmission  Erika D. Nelson, Ege T. Kavalali, Lisa M. Monteggia  Current Biology  Volume 16, Issue 7, Pages 710-716 (April 2006) DOI: 10.1016/j.cub.2006.02.062 Copyright © 2006 Elsevier Ltd Terms and Conditions

Figure 1 Spontaneous Miniature Synaptic Currents in Cultured Hippocampal Neurons from MeCP2 Knockout and Control Mice (A–D) Spontaneous excitatory synaptic currents. Representative recordings of miniature excitatory events in control (A) and MeCP2 knockout (B) neurons recorded in 1 μM TTX and 50 μM picrotoxin. (C) Bar graph showing a decrease in the frequency of spontaneous excitatory events in knockout neurons compared to controls (∗p < 0.05). (D) Cumulative histogram of mEPSC amplitudes. (E–H) Spontaneous inhibitory synaptic currents. Representative recordings of miniature inhibitory events in control (E) and MeCP2 knockout (F) neurons recorded in 1 μM TTX and 10 μM NBQX. (G) Bar graph showing similar frequencies of spontaneous inhibitory events in control and knockout neurons. (H) Cumulative histogram of mIPSC amplitudes. (I and J) Immunostaining of cultured neurons. (I) Dissociated neurons from control and knockout mice were labeled with primary antibodies to MAP2 (green) and Synapsin (red). (J) Bar graph depicts the number of presynaptic terminals found in control and mutant neurons. There was no significant difference in the number of presynaptic terminals between control and MeCP2 knockout neurons (p > 0.2). Error bars show standard error of the mean.

Figure 2 Evoked Synaptic Responses in MeCP2 Knockout and Control Neurons during 10 Hz Field Stimulation Immediately Followed by 1 Hz Recovery Stimulation (A) Representative whole-cell recordings of the first 20 responses. (B) Paired pulse ratios of the first two responses during various stimulation frequencies were measured from control and knockout neurons. The paired pulse ratios recorded from MeCP2 knockout neurons were significantly less than control at both 30 Hz and 10 Hz frequencies (∗p < 0.05; ∗∗p < 0.01). (C) Average response amplitudes of control and mutant neurons measured during the first 2 s of 10 Hz stimulation. Recorded responses from field stimulated knockout neurons depressed significantly faster than control responses (∗p < 0.05; ∗∗p < 0.01). Insert is a bar graph depicting similar average first peak amplitudes of these responses. (D) Average response amplitudes measured during 1 Hz stimulation following the 10 Hz depression. Knockout response amplitudes did not recover as quickly as those recorded from control neurons (∗p < 0.05). Error bars show standard error of the mean.

Figure 3 Spontaneous Miniature Synaptic Responses from Wild-Type C57BL/6 and MeCP2 Knockout Hippocampal Cultures after a 24 hr Treatment with Inhibitors of Transcriptional Repression and Activation (A and B) Spontaneous excitatory synaptic currents from C57BL/6 neurons. (A) Representative miniature excitatory synaptic currents from drug-treated neurons recorded in 1 μM TTX and 50 μM picrotoxin. (B) Bar graph of the significant decrease in mEPSC frequencies in neurons treated for 24 hr with the inhibitor of transcriptional repression, TSA (∗p < 0.05). This decrease was reversed when treatment included both TSA and the inhibitor of transcriptional activation, Act D. (C and D) Immunostaining of C57BL/6 cultured neurons. (C) Control and TSA-treated dissociated neurons were labeled with primary antibodies to MAP2 (green) and Synapsin (red). (D) Bar graph depicting a similar number of presynaptic terminals found in control and TSA-treated neurons. (E and F) Spontaneous inhibitory synaptic currents from C57BL/6 neurons. (E) Representative recordings of miniature inhibitory events from control and TSA-treated neurons recorded in 1 μM TTX and 10 μM NBQX. (F) Bar graph showing the frequencies of spontaneous miniature inhibitory events. (G and H) Spontaneous excitatory synaptic currents from MeCP2 knockout neurons. (G) Representative traces from drug-treated knockout neurons recorded in the presence of 1 μM TTX and 50 μM picrotoxin. (H) Bar graph showing that mEPSC frequencies in knockout neurons were not significantly affected by 24 hr treatment with either Act D or TSA. Error bars show standard error of the mean.

Figure 4 Spontaneous Miniature Excitatory Synaptic Currents in Floxed MeCP2 Neurons Infected with a Lentivirus Expressing Cre Recombinase (A–C) Miniature excitatory events from floxed neurons infected with high titer lentivirus. (A) Representative traces from infected neurons recorded in the presence of 1 μM TTX and 50 μM picrotoxin. (B) Bar graph revealing a significant decrease in mEPSC frequencies from floxed MeCP2 neurons infected after synapse formation with high titer lentiviral Cre recombinase (∗p < 0.05). This decrease was seen in recordings from both Cre-infected and uninfected postsynaptic floxed neurons and is compared to both floxed neurons infected with GFP and wild-type neurons infected with Cre. (C) Cumulative histogram showing no significant changes in mEPSC amplitudes. (D–F) Miniature excitatory currents from floxed neurons infected with low titer lentivirus. (D) Representative traces of mEPSCs recorded from infected neurons. (E) Bar graph revealing similar mEPSC frequencies from floxed MeCP2 neurons infected after synapse formation with low titer lentiviral Cre recombinase (∗p < 0.05). (F) Cumulative histogram showing no significant changes in mEPSC amplitudes. Error bars show standard error of the mean.
