Stimulation of Brain Pregnenolone Synthesis by Mitochondrial Diazepam Binding Inhibitor Receptor Ligands In Vivo

Abstract: Evidence that neurosteroids are potent modulators of the action of GABA at GABA_A receptors has prompted the investigation of the mechanism that controls brain neurosteroid synthesis by glial cell mitochondria in vivo. In vitro studies suggest that the interaction of the diazepam binding inhibitor (DBI)—a polypeptide that is abundant in steroidogenic cells—with glial mitochondrial DBI receptors (MDRs) is a crucial step in the physiological regulation of neurosteroid biosynthesis. MDRs bind 4-chlorodiazepam (4′-CD), N,N-di-n-hexyl-2-(4-fluorophenyl)-indol-3-acetamide (FGIN-1–27), and the isoquinoline carboxamide PK 11195 with high affinity, and these ligands have been used to investigate whether the stimulation of glial MDRs increases brain pregnenolone production in vivo. Adrenalectomized and castrated (A-C) male rats (to eliminate peripheral sources of pregnenolone) were pretreated with trilostane (to prevent pregnenolone metabolism to progesterone), and the pregnenolone content in brain regions dissected after fixation with a 0.8-s exposure to microwave irradiation focused to the head was determined by HPLC followed by specific radioimmunoassay. The forebrain and cerebellum of A-C rats contained 4–7 ng of pregnenolone/g of tissue, and the olfactory bulb contained 10–14 ng/g. These concentrations of brain pregnenolone are only 30–40% lower than those of shamoperated rats. In contrast, the plasma pregnenolone content of sham-operated rats was 2–3 ng/ml, but it was only 0.15–0.20 ng/ml in the plasma of A-C rats. In A-C rats, treatment with the MDR ligands 4-CD and FGIN-1–27 increased the pregnenolone content in the brain but failed to change the plasma or peripheral tissue content of this steroid. The effect of 4′-CD on brain pregnenolone content was maximal (70–100% increase) at the dose of 18 μmol/kg, 5–10 min after intravenous injection. The effect of oral administration of FGIN-1–27 on brain pregnenolone content was maximal (80–150% increase) at doses of 400–800 μmollkg and peaked at ～ 1 h. That this effect of FGIN-1–27 was mediated by the MDR was documented by pre-treatment with the MDR partial agonist PK 11195 (100 μmol/kg, i.p.). PK 11195 did not affect basal brain pregnenolone content but prevented the accumulation of brain pregnenolone induced by FGIN-1–27. FGIN-1–27 and 4-CD failed to increase the brain concentration of dehydre epiandrosterone in A-C rats. These data suggest that glial cell MDRs play a role in neurosteroid biosynthesis in vivo.

Replacement of RNA hairpins by in vitro selected tetranucleotides.

An in vitro selection method based on the autolytic cleavage of yeast tRNA(Phe) by Pb2+ was applied to obtain tRNA derivatives with the anticodon hairpin replaced by four single-stranded nucleotides. Based on the rates of the site-specific cleavage by Pb2+ and the presence of a specific UV-induced crosslink, certain tetranucleotide sequences allow proper folding of the rest of the tRNA molecule, whereas others do not. One such successful tetramer sequence was also used to replace the acceptor stem of yeast tRNA(Phe) and the anticodon hairpin of E.coli tRNA(Phe) without disrupting folding. These experiments suggest that certain tetramers may be able to replace structurally nonessential hairpins in any RNA.     

Nitrogen addition promotes terrestrial plants to allocate more biomass to aboveground organs: A global meta-analysis

A significant increase in reactive nitrogen (N) added to terrestrial ecosystems through agricultural fertilization or atmospheric deposition is considered to be one of the most widespread drivers of global change. Modifying biomass allocation is one primary strategy for maximizing plant growth rate, survival, and adaptability to various biotic and abiotic stresses. However, there is much uncertainty as to whether and how plant biomass allocation strategies change in response to increased N inputs in terrestrial ecosystems. Here, we synthesized 3516 paired observations of plant biomass and their components related to N additions across terrestrial ecosystems worldwide. Our meta-analysis reveals that N addition (ranging from 1.08 to 113.81 g m⁻² year⁻¹) increased terrestrial plant biomass by 55.6% on average. N addition has increased plant stem mass fraction, shoot mass fraction, and leaf mass fraction by 13.8%, 12.9%, and 13.4%, respectively, but with an associated decrease in plant reproductive mass (including flower and fruit biomass) fraction by 3.4%. We further documented a reduction in plant root-shoot ratio and root mass fraction by 27% (21.8%–32.1%) and 14.7% (11.6%–17.8%), respectively, in response to N addition. Meta-regression results showed that N addition effects on plant biomass were positively correlated with mean annual temperature, soil available phosphorus, soil total potassium, specific leaf area, and leaf area per plant. Nevertheless, they were negatively correlated with soil total N, leaf carbon/N ratio, leaf carbon and N content per leaf area, as well as the amount and duration of N addition. In summary, our meta-analysis suggests that N addition may alter terrestrial plant biomass allocation strategies, leading to more biomass being allocated to aboveground organs than belowground organs and growth versus reproductive trade-offs. At the global scale, leaf functional traits may dictate how plant species change their biomass allocation pattern in response to N addition.
