Genetic deletion or knockdown of PTEN enables regeneration of CNS axons, enhances sprouting of intact axons after injury, and induces de novo growth of uninjured adult neurons. It is unknown, however how PTEN deletion in mature neurons alters neuronal physiology. As a first step to address this question, we used immunocytochemistry for activity-dependent markers to assess consequences of PTEN knockdown in cortical neurons and granule cells of the dentate gyrus. Adult rats received unilateral intra-cortical injections of AAV expressing shRNA against PTEN and were allowed to survive for 2 months. Immunostaining for c-fos under resting conditions (home cage, HC) and after 1hr of exploration of a novel enriched environment (EE) revealed no hot spots of c-fos expression that would suggest abnormal activity. Counts revealed similar numbers of c-fos positive neurons in the area of PTEN deletion vs. homologous areas in the contralateral cortex in the HC and similar induction of c-fos with EE. However, IEG induction in response to high frequency stimulation (HFS) of the cortex was attenuated in areas of PTEN deletion. In rats with AAVshRNA-mediated PTEN deletion in the dentate gyrus, induction of the IEGs c-fos and Arc with HFS of the perforant path was abrogated in areas of PTEN deletion. Immunostaining using phosphospecific antibodies for phospho-S6 (a downstream marker for mTOR activation) and phospho-ERK1/2 revealed abrogation of S6 phosphorylation in PTEN-deleted areas but preserved activation of phosphosphorylation of ERK1/2.
