Dr. Agenor Limon presents research integrating functional metrics with large anatomical, transcriptomic, and proteomic datasets to evaluate the relationship between synaptic E/I ratio and behavioral abnormalities across postmortem intervals and brain banks. Alterations in synaptic function have been found in transcriptomic, genetic, and proteomic studies of neurological and mental disorders. Clinical and preclinical studies suggest that synaptic dysfunction and behavioral abnormalities in disorders like Alzheimer’s disease and schizophrenia may be mechanistically linked to the emergence of imbalances between excitatory (E) and inhibitory (I) receptors. However, until recently, the electrophysiological E/I synaptic ratio had only been measured in animal models. Using pioneering methods developed in the lab including reactivation and microtransplantation of synaptic receptors from frozen human brains, Dr. Agenor Limon’s research team has obtained electrophysiological metrics of global synaptic E/I ratios in cortical brain regions of subjects that were affected by Alzheimer’s Disease and synaptic measurements in schizophrenia. In this webinar, Dr. Agenor Limon will present recent research integrating functional metrics with large anatomical, transcriptomic, and proteomic datasets to evaluate the relationship between synaptic E/I ratio and behavioral abnormalities across postmortem intervals and brain banks. Key Topics Include: - Understand the global synaptic excitation to inhibition ratio between excitatory and inhibitory synaptic receptors determined from reactivated frozen human brain tissue - Understand the relationship between electrophysiological metrics of receptor function and multi-omic data in neurodegenerative disorders - Understand the role of deviations of the excitation to inhibition ratio with clinical presentation in Alzheimer’s disease

- During all our life we consistently lose neurons and synaptic complexity with only mild changes in cognitive function. We can lose a third of or cortical thikness and still live a normal life. Every man in purple and women in green across life in cognitively normal people. For example kids or teenagers that undergo complete resection of half the brain, due to intractable epilepsy can see only a mild to moderate loss of cognitively function. Even when the left hemisphere is removed. This is quite remarkable since major areas associated with speech are in the left hemisphere. But reorganization of the right hemisphere allow to remergence of speech. While persistent epilepsy produces cognitive impairment, the loss of half of the brain has only a moderate effect on cognition. Actually people with only half the brain go on to have functional and successful lives.

- To gather this information, we used the microtransplantation of synaptic membranes method (MSM). Briefly, synaptosomes are isolated from frozen tissue, the synaptosomes are lised to form small vesicles that containing the human membranes with their receptors and synaptic complexes, and these protoeliposomes are injected into Xenopus oocytes, which are 1mm in diameter and strong enough to resist the process. The human membranes fuse with the membrane of the oocyte and then we can apply agonists of the receptors to observe their responses. Xenopus oocytes do not express endogenous GABA or glutamate receptors, therefore responses elicited by the agonists are mediated by microtransplanted human receptors. 45 s
- For these experiments we used frozen DLPFC of 10 CTRL and 10 SZ matched by Age, PMI, and as closely as possibly by pH and RIN. There was a slight statistically significant difference in pH and RIN between CTRL and SZ. This parameters were included as covariates in the analysis of the data. Enriched synaptosomal preparations from the DLPFC were used for MSM experiments and for label free proteomic analysis. An adjacent dlpfc section was used for RNA Seq. RNA seq
- The severe cognitive impairment and disability observed in patients with AD is a logical consequence of the loss of brain volume at late stages of AD. Postmortem analysis show substantial loss of gray and white matter and the presence of the neuropathological change that define AD: which is he presence of Amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles. Many decades of research have consistently show that the loss of dendritic spines and synaptic density is the best correlate of cognitive impairment. However, it is important to note that loss of neurons or even loss of brain regions does not necessarily mean loss of cognitive function. For example.
