    Effect of chronic L-DOPA treatment on 5-HT1A receptors in parkinsonian monkey brain
    (Pergamon Press, 2012-08-24) Riahi, Golnasim; Morissette, Marc; Di Paolo, Thérèse; Lévesque, Daniel; Parent, Martin; Rouillard, Claude; Samadi, Pershia
    After chronic use of l-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (l-DOPA), most Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients suffer from its side effects, especially motor complications called l-DOPA-induced dyskinesia (LID). 5-HT1A agonists were tested to treat LID but many were reported to worsen parkinsonism. In this study, we evaluated changes in concentration of serotonin and its metabolite 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA) and of 5-HT1A receptors in control monkeys, 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) monkeys, dyskinetic MPTP monkeys treated chronically with l-DOPA, low dyskinetic MPTP monkeys treated with l-DOPA and drugs of various pharmacological activities: Ro 61-8048 (an inhibitor of kynurenine hydroxylase) or docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and dyskinetic MPTP monkeys treated with l-DOPA + naltrexone (an opioid receptor antagonist). Striatal serotonin concentrations were reduced in MPTP monkeys compared to controls. Higher striatal 5-HIAA/serotonin concentration ratios in l-DOPA-treated monkeys compared to untreated monkeys suggest an intense activity of serotonin axon terminals but this value was similar in dyskinetic and nondyskinetic animals treated with or without adjunct treatment with l-DOPA. As measured by autoradiography with [3H]8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propyl) aminotetralin (8-OH-DPAT), a decrease of 5-HT1A receptor specific binding was observed in the posterior/dorsal region of the anterior cingulate gyrus and posterior/ventral area of the superior frontal gyrus of MPTP monkeys compared to controls. An increase of 5-HT1A receptor specific binding was observed in the hippocampus of MPTP monkeys treated with l-DOPA regardless to their adjunct treatment. Cortical 5-HT1A receptor specific binding was increased in the l-DOPA-treated MPTP monkeys alone or with DHA or naltrexone and this increase was prevented in low dyskinetic MPTP monkeys treated with l-DOPA and Ro 61-8048. These results highlight the importance of 5-HT1A receptor alterations in treatment of PD with l-DOPA.

    Effect of non-dopaminergic drug treatment on Levodopa induced dyskinesias in MPTP monkeys : common implication of striatal neuropeptides
    (2009-07-02) Ouattara, Bazoumana; Tamim, Mohamed Khalil; Morissette, Marc; Di Paolo, Thérèse; Lévesque, Daniel; Rouillard, Claude; Grégoire, Laurent; Samadi, Pershia
    Dopamine denervation in Parkinson's disease and repeated Levodopa (L-DOPA) administration that induces dyskinesias are associated with an enhancement of basal ganglia neuropeptide transmission. Various adjunct non-dopaminergic treatments to Levodopa were shown to reduce and/or prevent dyskinesias. The aim of this study was to seek if non-dopaminergic drug treatments to 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) lesioned monkeys combined with L-DOPA to prevent dyskinesia were associated with changes of striatal neuropeptides. Chronic treatment with Ro 61-8048 a kynurenine hydroxylase inhibitor, docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) a polyunsaturated fatty acid (omega-3), naltrexone an opioidergic antagonist and CI-1041 an N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) glutamate receptor antagonist with L-DOPA prevented dyskinesias to various extents except naltrexone whereas all MPTP monkeys treated with L-DOPA alone developed dyskinesias. Striatal preproenkephalin (PPE), preprodynorphin (PPD) and preprotachykinin A (PPT-A) mRNA levels were measured by in situ hybridization. An increase of PPE and PPD mRNA levels was observed in anterior caudate nucleus of L-DOPA treated MPTP monkeys compared to controls and to Saline-treated MPTP monkeys whereas PPT-A mRNA levels were unchanged. Striatal PPE and PPD mRNA levels remained elevated in L-DOPA plus naltrexone-treated MPTP monkeys, while co-treatment with DHA, CI-1041 or Ro 61-8048 prevented their increase to various extents. Maximal dyskinesias scores of MPTP monkeys correlated significantly with striatal PPE and PPD mRNA levels but not with PPT-A mRNA levels. These results show that drugs displaying a wide range of pharmacological activities can modulate L-DOPA induced dyskinesias and this activity is correlated with striatal PPD and PPE mRNA levels suggesting a convergent mechanism.

    Membrane cholesterol removal and replenishment affect rat and monkey brain monoamine transporters
    (Pergamon Press, 2018-01-31) Morissette, Marc; Di Paolo, Thérèse; Rouillard, Claude; Morin, Nicolas
    The dopamine transporter (DAT) is abundantly expressed in the striatum where it removes extracellular dopamine into the cytosol of presynaptic nerve terminals. It is the target of drugs of abuse and antidepressants. There is a loss of the DAT in Parkinson's disease affecting release of levodopa implicated in levodopa-induced dyskinesias. This study investigated the effect of cholesterol on DAT, serotonin transporter (SERT) and vesicular monoamine transporter 2 (VMAT2) in monkey and rat brains in vitro. DAT protein levels measured by Western blot remained unchanged with in vitro methyl-β-cyclodextrin (MCD) incubations to remove membrane cholesterol or with incubations to increase membrane cholesterol content. By contrast, striatal DAT specific binding labelled with [125I]RTI-121 or with [125I]RTI-55 decreased with increasing concentrations of MCD and increased with cholesterol loading. Moreover, [125I]RTI-121 specific binding of striatal membranes depleted of cholesterol with MCD was restored to initial DAT content with addition of cholesterol showing its rapid and reversible effect. By contrast, striatal VMAT2 and SERT specific binding showed no or limited changes by cholesterol manipulations. Similar results were obtained for monkey caudate nucleus, putamen and nucleus accumbens. Membrane microviscosity was assessed by fluorescence polarization spectroscopy, using the probe 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene. DAT changes positively correlated with changes of membrane microviscosity in rat and monkey brain regions investigated and with membrane cholesterol contents. Similar findings were observed with desmosterol but to a lower extent than with cholesterol. These results show an important effect of cholesterol on the DAT associated with microviscosity changes that should be considered in drug therapies.

    Estrogen receptors and lesion-induced response of striatal dopamine receptors
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2013-01-25) Al-Sweidi, Sara; Morissette, Marc; Di Paolo, Thérèse; Rouillard, Claude
    Neuroprotection by 17β-estradiol and an estrogen receptor (ER) agonist against 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) lesion were shown to implicate protein kinase B (Akt) signaling in mice. In order to evaluate the associated mechanisms, this study compared estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) and estrogen receptor beta (ERβ) intact or knockout (KO) and wild-type (WT) C57Bl/6 male mice following MPTP treatment of 7, 9, 11 mg/kg and/or 17β-estradiol. Striatal D1 and D2 dopamine (DA) receptors were measured by autoradiography with the specific ligands [3H]-SCH 23390 and [3H]-raclopride, respectively and signaling by Western blot for Akt, glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK3β) and extracellular-regulated signal kinases (ERK1 and ERK2). Control ERKOβ mice had lower striatal [3H]-SCH 23390 specific binding than WT and ERKOα mice; both KO mice had lower [3H]-raclopride specific binding. Striatal D1 receptors decreased with increasing doses of MPTP in correlation with striatal DA concentrations in ERKOα mice and remained unchanged in WT and ERKOβ mice. Striatal D2 receptors decreased with increasing doses of MPTP in correlation with striatal DA concentrations in WT and ERKOα mice and increased in ERKOβ mice. In MPTP-lesioned mice, 17β-estradiol treatment increased D1 receptors in ERKOα and ERKOβ mice and D2 receptors in WT and ERKOβ mice. MPTP did not affect striatal pAkt/Akt and pGSK3β/GSK3β levels in WT and ERKOα mice, while in vehicle-treated ERKOβ mice these levels were higher and increased with MPTP lesioning. Striatal pERK1/ERK1 and pERK2/ERK2 levels showed to a lesser extent a similar pattern. In conclusion, ERs affected the response of striatal DA receptors to a MPTP lesion and post receptor signaling.

    Nur77 gene knockout alters dopamine neuron biochemical activity and dopamine turnover
    (Society of Biological Psychiatry, 2006-09-15) St-Hilaire, Michel; Paquet, Brigitte; Morissette, Marc; Gilbert, François; Di Paolo, Thérèse; Lévesque, Daniel; Rouillard, Claude
    Background: Transcription factors of the Nur family (Nurr1, Nur77, and Nor-1) are orphan nuclear receptors closely associated with dopamine neurotransmission in the central nervous system. Nur77 expression is strongly modulated by antipsychotic and ant-parkinsonian drugs in dopaminoceptive brain areas. However, the role of Nur77 in dopamine neuron activity and turnover remains elusive. Methods: We compared various behavioral and biochemical parameters between Nur77 knockout −/− and wild-type +/+ mice in basal and haloperidol-challenged conditions. Results: We report here that Nur77-deficient mice display enhanced spontaneous locomotor activity, greater sensitivity to a small dose of the dopamine D2 receptor agonist quinpirole acting mainly at autoreceptor sites, and higher levels of the dopamine metabolite DOPAC relative to wild-type mice. Dopamine turnover disturbances are also found after acute challenge with haloperidol, a dopamine D2 receptor antagonist. These alterations are associated with increased tyrosine hydroxylase expression and activity, and reduced catechol-O-methyltransferase expression. Conclusion: Taken together, these results are consistent with the involvement of Nur77 in dopamine neuron biochemical activity and dopamine turnover.

    Nur77 mRNA levels and L-Dopa-induced dyskinesias in MPTP monkeys treated with docosahexaenoic acid
    (Blackwell Science, 2009-07-25) Mahmoudi, Souha; Ouattara, Bazoumana; Morissette, Marc; Gilbert, François; Di Paolo, Thérèse; Lévesque, Daniel; Rouillard, Claude; Grégoire, Laurent; Samadi, Pershia
    We have previously shown that docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) significantly reduced L-Dopa-induced dyskinesia (LID) in 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) monkeys (Samadi et al., Ann. Neurol. 59:282–288, 2006). In the present study, we measured for the first time mRNA levels of Nur77, an orphan nuclear receptor that participates to adaptive and/or aberrant dopamine-related behaviors, and retinoid X receptor γ1 (RXRγ1), a putative brain receptor for DHA and transcriptional partner of Nur77, in MPTP monkeys treated with L-Dopa and DHA. The RXRγ1 mRNA is strongly expressed in monkey caudate nucleus and putamen, but no change in levels of RXRγ1 was observed following MPTP and L-Dopa treatments. On the other hand, denervation reduced Nur77 mRNA levels, whereas chronic L-Dopa treatment strongly induced Nur77 transcripts. These modulations are taking place in substance P positive cells and are associated with both caudate-putamen matrix and striosome compartments. Interestingly, combination of L-Dopa with DHA further increases Nur77 mRNA levels in the anterior caudate-putamen, and mainly in striosomes. This is accompanied by a significant inverse correlation between Nur77 mRNA levels and dyskinetic scores. Taken together, our results show that Nur77 expression is modulated following dopamine denervation and chronic L-Dopa therapy in a non-human primate model of Parkinson's disease, and suggest that strong modulation of Nur77 expression might be linked to a reduced risk to develop LIDs.
