Description
Antidepressants are widely used for treatment of depression. Imipramine, a typical antidepressant, is recently known to have an effect to restore the expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor gene, which is decreased in depressed patients, by increasing histone acetylation. However, it is largely unknown whether other antidepressants have similar epigenetic effects to change gene expression. To address this question, we examined the effect of five antidepressants (imipramine, citalopram, duloxetine, amitriptyline, mirtazapine) on expression of genes associated with mental and neurodegenetative disorders. We found that 48-hour treatment with imipramine, citalopram, amitriptyline, mirtazapine, but not duloxetine, caused a large number of differentially expressed genes in primary neocortical neurons in mice. Focused on genes relating to neural protection and neuroplasticity, we discovered that amitriptyline not only enhanced the expression of atf3 and cox2 by increasing histone H3 Lys4 trimethylation (H3K4me3), but also protected neurons against oxygen-glucose deprivation and staurosporine-induced apoptosis. Our study will shed a new insight in understanding of the molecular and epigenetic mechanism of antidepressants.

Description
Transforming growth factor (TGF)- plays crucial roles in embryonic development and adult tissue homeostasis by eliciting various cellular responses in target cells. TGF- signaling is principally mediated through receptor-activated Smad proteins, which regulate expression of target genes in cooperation with other DNA-binding transcriptionfactors (Smad cofactors). In this study, we found that the basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor Olig1 is a Smad cofactor involved in TGF-b-induced cell motility. Knockdown of Olig1 attenuated TGF--induced cell motility in chamber migration and wound healing assays. In contrast, Olig1 knockdown had no effect on bone morphogenetic protein-induced cell motility, TGF--induced cytostasis or epithelial-mesenchymal transition. Furthermore, we observed that cooperation of Smad2/3 with Olig1 is regulated by a peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerase, Pin1. TGF-b-induced cell motility, induction of Olig1-regulated genes, and physical interaction between Smad2/3 and Olig1 were all inhibited after knockdown of Pin1, indicating a novel mode of regulation of Smad signaling. We also found that Olig1 interacts with the L3 loop of Smad3. Using a synthetic peptide corresponding to the L3 loop of Smad3, we succeeded in selectively inhibiting TGF-b-induced cell motility. These findings may lead to a new strategy for selective regulation of TGF-b-induced cellular responses.

Description
Gene expression was measured using microarrays in 8 hour postfertilization embryos, comparing control versus ethanol-treated (2 to 8 hours postfertilization) embryos. This experiment was performed to determine the gene expression changes that occur in response to ethanol treatment as a model of fetal alcohol spectrum disorder.
