英文摘要
Abstract
A major challenge in the treatment of neurological diseases is the elaborate and diffuse nature of neural
circuits, where physically proximal neurons are engaged in functionally different pathways. The ability to target
neurons based on function, rather than location, is critical to improving treatments for disease. In Parkinson’s
disease, improved treatments have been driven by the discovery of cell type diversity in the striatum, providing
access to functionally opposing circuits: the direct and indirect pathways. However, with the exception of
neuronal diversity in the striatum, all other downstream nuclei in the basal ganglia are depicted as
homogeneous relay nuclei, an oversimplification whose limits are increasingly apparent as techniques to study
circuit function become more sophisticated. Recently, my lab has pioneered the use of transgenic mouse lines
to subdivide neurons in the external globus pallidus (GPe) into subpopulations that differ in anatomy and
electrophysiological properties. Leveraging tools to optogenetically manipulate these genetic subpopulations,
we are now in position to discover their contributions to behavior. In preliminary studies, we found that
optogenetic interventions targeted to particular subpopulations in the GPe (but not global stimulation of the
entire nucleus) could restore motor function in dopamine depleted mice and the effects persisted for hours
after stimulation. This finding challenges long-standing models of circuit organization in the basal ganglia and
has relevance for PD, where current interventions provide only transient relief of motor symptoms that rapidly
return once stimulation stops. Experiments in this proposal will identify which neuronal subpopulations in the
GPe are required to induce long-lasting motor rescue (Aim 1) and will elucidate the pathways through which
they mediate their effects (Aim 2). Aim 1, will use optogenetics and in vivo recordings to assess the impact of
modulating genetically-defined neuronal subpopulations on local circuit dynamics in the GPe and their effects
on behavior. Specifically, we will test the hypothesis that recovered movements following optogenetic
stimulation are goal-directed and restore the ability of mice to seek out food, social interactions, and avoid
anxiety-provoking environments. In Aim 2, we will use in vivo recordings, coupled with viral-assisted circuit
mapping, to elucidate the pathways through which neuronal subpopulations in the GPe exert their prokinetic
effects on movement. Our preliminary data suggest that therapeutic interventions share a common mechanism
of reversing pathological firing patterns in the substantia nigra reticulata (SNr), the primary basal ganglia output
nucleus in rodents. Our proposed experiments will determine whether this effect is mediated by direct
projections of GPe neurons to the SNr, or whether it is mediated through a disynaptic pathway involving the
subthalamic nucleus (STN). Combined, results from these studies will elucidate the pathways and circuit
mechanisms responsible for long-lasting motor rescue in dopamine depleted mice and will revise long-standing
models of indirect pathway dysfunction in disease.
