Nature Neuroscience Review - Choquet D., Sainlos M. and Sibarita J.B.

We review the latest developments for labelling and functionalizing proteins with small localization and functionalized reporters. We present how these molecular tools are combined with the development of a wide variety of imaging methods that break either the diffraction barrier or the tissue penetration depth limits. We put these developments in perspective to emphasize how they will enable step changes in our understanding of the brain.

Identification of the molecular mechanisms regulating the intracellular transport of glutamate receptors: a new pathway for controlling synaptic plasticity

"The modulation of the efficiency of synaptic transmission between neurons is one of the fundamental processes of memory and learning phenomena. This regulation of the strength of synaptic transmission is largely driven by changes in the number of receptors present at the synapse. In this work, the researchers identify a new mechanism for controlling the establishment of receptors at the level of the synapse through the control of their intracellular transport.

Neurotransmitter receptors, and in particular glutamate receptors, are concentrated in synapses in front of neurotransmitter release sites. However, in the process of their biogenesis, these receptors are synthesized at the level of the endoplasmic reticulum, most of the time several hundred microns from the synapses. They must therefore be transported to the synapses. Our previous work had made possible to visualize for the first time the intracellular transport of AMPA-type glutamate receptors, responsible for the majority of the rapid excitatory transmission between neurons. These receptors are transported rapidly (1-2 microns per second) in vesicles circulating on the microtubules using molecular motors. We observed that, surprisingly, this transport was strongly regulated by neuronal activity.

In this new work, we have identified the molecular mechanisms responsible for these regulations. The cytosolic C-terminal domain of the AMPAR GluA1 subunit is specifically associated with two proteins, 4.1 N and SAP97. We analyzed how interactions between GluA1 and 4.1N or SAP97 regulate GluA1 transport and its exocytosis under basal conditions and after induction of synaptic plasticity (LTP). Our results identify differential roles of 4.1N and SAP97 in controlling the different phases of transport and membrane integration of GluA1.

This work opens new perspectives in understanding the molecular mechanisms that control the establishment and maintenance of glutamate receptors at the synapse during synaptic plasticity."

Daniel Choquet is a member of the 2023 Fulbright France

Created in 1946 at the proposal of the eponymous US senator, Fulbright is an international academic mobility program of the US government. The aim of the program is to promote educational and cultural exchanges between France and the United States.

Since its launch, 21,244 students from both countries have benefited from the program:

12,294 French students have gone to the United States of America,

8,950 Americans have come to France.

Daniel Choquet (director of research at the CNRS, director of IINS, the BIC, the cluster of excellence BRAIN_2030 and team leader at IINS) has just been selected as a laureate of the Fulbright France program. He will be spending a 7 month sabbatical stay in Denver in 2024.

Why did you apply to the Fulbright France Program?

“I was getting organized to perform a 7 month sabbatical in Denver in 2022, in the lab of Pr. Mark Dell’Acqua. Given the cost of living in the US, I needed additional funding to support my stay. The Fulbright organization is a very prestigious academic mobility program of the US government and it was thus natural for me to apply, particularly given that there is a specific partnership with our region Nouvelle-Aquitaine.”

What does it mean to you?

“Well, it does mean a lot. First, in searching the Fulbright alumni file, I found out that both my parents were fulbrighters in the 50s while they did post-docs in Princeton, my mother with Albert Einstein. Second, I realized when I obtained this fellowship that when you enter a new family, the family of Fulbrighters, beyond the money, you enter a support network all over the US that will be both very interesting and valuable.”

Will you take this opportunity to discover or develop a research topic?

“Absolutely, the Department of Pharmacology at the University of Colorado in Denver that I’ll join hosts a large number of high profile neurobiologists that develop orginal cell biology approaches.

We will join our forces with Mark Dell’Acqua and Matthew Kennedy to develop new methods and approaches to control receptor trafficking and visualization.”

What do you think this program will bring you, both professionally and personally?

“In addition to the funding that will help me live there, being a Fulbright fellow in the US is really recognized and will help me develop my network and meet many academics in various disciplines. Fulbright fellow also have a mission to be ambassadors of their country, and I certainly intend to introduce to colleagues to some French cuisine specialties!”

#IMadteIt: Marie-Lise Jobin, a post-doctoral researcher starting out as an associate professor

Marie-Lise Jobin is currently a post-doctoral researcher in Daniel Choquet’s "Dynamic organization and function of synapses" team. Interested in the role of the cytoskeleton in the function and structure of dendritic spines, the scientist is supervised by Anna Brachet. Marie-Lise recently obtained a permanent teaching-research position at the Institut National Polytechnique de Bordeaux (Bordeaux INP). Here, she looks back on her career.

What is your background?
"I studied biology and structural biochemistry at the University of Bordeaux. During my Master’s and PhD, I worked in many different laboratories. First, I spent three months working at the University of Guelph in Ontario, Canada. Then, for my PhD, I joined the Institute of Chemistry and Biology of Membranes and Nano-objects (CBMN) in Pessac. On completion of my studies, I spent a year as a post-doctoral fellow at the Nutrition and Integrative Neurobiology Laboratory (Nutrineuro) in Bordeaux. I then spent over three years at the University of Würzburg in Bavaria, Germany. And for the last four years I’ve been at IINS. My post-doctoral adventure will finally come to an end at the end in September 2023, and I’ll be taking up a position as an associate professor in September!"

Why did you join IINS?
"Generally speaking, I’ve always been interested in biomolecular interactions involving cell membranes. I first worked on synthetic membrane models. However, I’ve always wanted to study more physiological systems. So the neuroscience field allows me to work with systems closer to physiology, and to use my highly interdisciplinary skills. [...] Anna Brachet’s field of research on the role of cytoskeletal proteins, in particular spectrins, and their partners, in the regulation, function and mechano-transduction of dendritic spines fit perfectly my research interests. Moreover, IINS is considered one of the most recognized institutes in the field of neuroscience. Above all, IINS is part of a synergistic system, with close relations to the Bordeaux Imaging Center (BIC). It was a unique opportunity to develop my skills in cutting-edge microscopy techniques and gain access to considerable knowledge in this field!"

Can you tell us about your research?
"I’m trying to understand the role of cytoskeletal proteins, beta spectrins, in neurons, and more specifically in dendritic spines, which are the seat of neuronal transmission. My results showed that beta spectrins are co-organised on a nanoscopic scale in dendritic spines and are particularly important for the stability of these structures. Their membrane or cytoskeleton partners are all the more important in maintaining and stabilising these spectrins under the membrane and influence their nano-organisation."

As a woman in science, what difficulties have you encountered?
"My biggest difficulty has always been a lack of self-confidence. But throughout my career I’ve been lucky enough to meet scientists, men and women who have had faith in me, and who have always supported and encouraged me along the way."

Why do women need to be more recognised in the scientific community?
"It seems quite logical to me that gender diversity, or diversity of any kind, leads to better, more creative and innovative science. I can see that things are changing, slowly but surely, in the right direction, and I’m optimistic for the future!"

Any advice for young researcher?
"I’m proud to have got where I am, to have succeeded in obtaining a permanent position in academia, and to have stayed the course despite many years of not knowing what would happen and never giving up. You have to persevere. It’s often the fear of failing that stops us from moving forward, so don’t hesitate, dare to take the plunge and, above all, trust yourself."

PhD Project Overview: AMPA Receptor Dynamics in Synaptic Plasticity

Project Title: Unraveling AMPA Receptor Dynamics in Synaptic Plasticity Using Cutting-edge Imaging and Electrophysiology

Introduction

Synapses, the communication hubs of the brain, rely on their molecular composition and organization for effective information processing. AMPA receptors (AMPARs) are crucial in this process as they mediate fast excitatory synaptic transmission, which is essential for learning and memory. This project aims to explore how the mobility and nanoscale organization of AMPARs influence synaptic plasticity and information processing.

Research Objectives

Investigate AMPAR Trafficking:
- Understand how AMPAR mobility and nanoscale organization control synaptic plasticity.
- Study the interaction of AMPARs with auxiliary proteins like TARP, CNIH, and Shisas.
Develop and Apply Advanced Techniques:
- Combine electrophysiology on brain slices with light sheet imaging, optogenetics, and cell biology.
- Utilize innovative tools to control receptor mobility and subunit composition.
Implement High-Resolution Imaging:
- Enhance Light Sheet Fluorescence Microscopy (LSFM) and Lattice Light Sheet Microscopy (LLSM) with adaptive optics for deep tissue imaging.
- Integrate Single Molecule Localization Microscopy (SMLM) techniques like U-PAINT and DNA-PAINT for nanometer-scale resolution imaging of AMPAR subunits.

Methodology

Electrophysiology: Perform recordings on brain slices to analyze synaptic activity and plasticity.
Light Sheet Imaging: Use LSFM and LLSM to visualize synapses in thick samples with minimal phototoxicity.
Optogenetics: Control receptor dynamics using light-sensitive proteins to manipulate signaling pathways.
SMLM Techniques:
- U-PAINT: Track individual AMPAR movements in rat hippocampal cultures.
- DNA-PAINT: Achieve high-resolution imaging of GluA1 and GluA2 subunits in organotypic brain slices.

Innovations and Expected Outcomes
