Abstract

LRRK2 mutations produce end-stage Parkinson’s disease (PD) with reduced nigrostriatal dopamine, whereas, asymptomatic carriers have increased dopamine turnover and altered brain connectivity. LRRK2 pathophysiology remains unclear, but reduced dopamine and mitochondrial abnormalities occur in aged G2019S mutant knock-in (GKI) mice. Conversely, cultured GKI neurons exhibit increased synaptic transmission. We assessed behavior and synaptic glutamate and dopamine function across a range of ages. Young GKI mice exhibit more vertical exploration, elevated glutamate and dopamine transmission, and aberrant D2-receptor responses. These phenomena decline with age, but are stable in littermates. In young GKI mice, dopamine transients are slower, independent of dopamine transporter (DAT), increasing the lifetime of extracellular dopamine. Slowing of dopamine transients is observed with age in littermates, suggesting premature ageing of dopamine synapses in GKI mice. Thus, GKI mice exhibit early, but declining, synaptic and behavioral phenotypes, making them amenable to investigation of early pathophysiological, and later parkinsonian-like, alterations. This model will prove valuable in efforts to develop neuroprotection for PD.

Figure 1. Increased exploratory behavior in young GKI mice declines with age. (A) Animal body weight over time. There was no main effect of genotype upon mouse weight, but there was a significant interaction between weight and age (see text and Figure 1—figure supplement 1). Weights were not significantly different at any age up to 500 days (i; animal n shown in ii); however, in the oldest age group there was a statistically significant increase in GKI mean weight (post-test *p=0.018). (B) Spontaneous exploratory behavior in young and old mice. Analysis of open field exploration showed no genotype (p=0.9) or interaction (p=0.9) effects on total distance travelled (i). In the cylinder test for vertical exploration (ii) there was a significant interaction between genotype and age upon rearing events (p=0.008). At < 6 months, GKI mice exhibited a significant 24.8% increase in vertical exploration (post-test **p=0.009), which declined significantly with age (post-test ****p=0.0001). No significant age-related decline was observed in WT littermates (post-test p=0.3).

(A) Whole-cell voltage-clamp (WC VC) recording in striatal medium-sized spiny projection neurons (SPNs) of the dorsolateral striatum of acutely prepared brain slices. Recording electrodes targeted visually identified SPNs in the dorsolateral caudate putamen (CPu) of the striatum and stimulating electrodes were placed intrastriatally ~200 um dorsal of the recording site toward M1/S1 cortex (CTX) (i). Example traces of spontaneous activity (spontaneous excitatory post-synaptic currents: sEPSCs) in slices from 1m-old WT (left) and GKI (right) mice. There was a significant main effect of age upon mean sEPSC amplitude (ii, p=0.049), but no main genotype (p=0.15) or age-genotype interaction (p=0.18). In contrast, there were significant main age (0.0001) and genotype (p=0.013) effects and an age-genotype interaction effect (p=0.006) upon the frequency of sEPSCs. At 1–3 months, GKI SPNs exhibited a significant 48.4% increase in mean event frequency (post-test **p=0.0004), which significantly declined (by 57%) with age (post-test ****p=0.0001). In contrast, the 13% decline with age in WT SPNs was not significant (post-test p=0.29). (B) Representative traces of intrastriatally-evoked AMPA- and NMDA-receptor mediated EPSCs (eEPSCs) recorded at Vh −70 mV and + 40 mV, respectively (i). There was a significant main effect of age (ii; p=0.041) upon the ratio of AMPA to NMDA eEPSC amplitudes, but no main genotype (p=0.96) or age-genotype interaction effect (p=0.92). (C) Representative peak-normalized traces of evoked EPSCs (eEPSCs) in SPNs, resulting from intrastriatal paired-pulse stimuli (20–140 ms inter-pulse intervals; IPIs) prior to (i. black trace) and in the presence of 10 uM quinpirole (red trace; slices from 1 month WT and GKI slices). There were no significant genotype or genotype-IPI interaction effects upon paired-pulse ratios in pooled experiments from animals aged 1–3 months in standard conditions (ii). In the presence of the D2 agonist quinpirole (i) there was a significant main genotype effect (*p=0.042) in slices from 1 m old mice (iii).

(ii) There was no significant effect of TTX upon mean sEPSC amplitude (paired t-test p=0.82) or frequency (paired t-test p=0.29) within each cell. Expressed as a percentage of the initial sEPSC mean value, neither mEPSC amplitudes nor frequencies were significantly altered by TTX application (one-sample t-test against 100, p=0.7 and 0.2 respectively). The weak trend in frequency was towards increases in GKI, rather than the decreases predicted if action potential-dependent events were contributing to mean sEPSC frequency.

Figure 3. Increased nigrostriatal dopamine transmission in young GKI slices is lost with age, whereas early increases in dopamine extracellular lifetime are maintained in old GKI slices, and matched by age-related increases in WT slices. Fast-scan cyclic voltammetry (FSCV) was conducted in the dorsolateral striatum of acute slices prepared from WT and GKI mice. (A) Dopamine release and reuptake transients were evoked by single or paired (4 s IPI) local stimuli (i). There was no significant genotype effect (see text) on peak dopamine release over a range of stimulus intensities in slices from 3 month or > 12 month old mice (ii). Upon repeated stimulation, there were significant (post-test *p=0.05, **p=0.01), elevations in dopamine peak release in GKI mice, relative to WT controls at 3 months (ii). In WT and GKI slices from > 12 month mice, peak dopamine release was more variable, there was no modulation induced by repeated stimulation, as in younger slices, nor were there genotype differences. There was a significant age-dependent increase in D2 autoreceptor mediated paired-pulse depression (iii; 3 month n = 20(5) and 13(5),>12 month n = 18(6) and 30(11) for WT and GKI, respectively, post-test ***p=0.001), reflected by reduced paired-pule ratios (PPR), but there was no main effect of genotype (p=0.7) or genotype-age interaction (p=0.99). (B) The D2 agonist quinpirole (10 uM) equally suppressed peak evoked dopamine release in WT and GKI slices from 3 month mice after a 10 min wash-in; however, continued exposure revealed a trend toward a main effect of genotype (p=0.07) on repeated release, and a significant genotype-time interaction (p=0.039, post-test *p=0.049 at 18 min post application). This effect was not observed in > 12 month slices (i). Evoked dopamine transient decay time revealed a significant main genotype effect (ii. No drug, 3 month n = 20(5) and 13(5),>12 month n = 19(6) and 33(11) for WT and GKI, respectively p=0.0025) due to significantly longer decay times (slower transients) in 3 month GKI slices (post-test *p=0.027). In > 12 month slices, WT decay times had increased to a value similar to 3 month GKI (ii. No drug). The presence of the presynaptic dopamine transporter (DAT) blocker GBR (10 uM, ii. + GBR12909) increased all transient decay times, as expected. There were significant main effects of age and genotype (3 month n = 17(6) and 23(8),>12 month n = 31(9) and 30(11), p=0.0002 and 0.0043 for WT and GKI, respectively) upon transient lifetime; in the absence of dopamine re-uptake, 3 GKI transients were still significantly slower than WT controls (post-test *p=0.014), and significant age-dependent increases in dopamine decay times were observed in WT slices (post-test *p=0.0024).

Figure 3—figure supplement 1. Early alterations in GKI dopamine release are not associated with reductions in nigrostriatal dopamine markers and persist despite genotype-dependent increases in DAT protein levels by western blot. (A). Staining for presynaptic dopamine markers DAT and tyrosine hydroxylase (TH; i) showed highly specific enrichment in the striatum; however, there were no age or genotype differences (ii). Although variable, the data suggest there is no loss of either terminal marker in GKI striatum. (B) Striatal DAT levels were also assessed by western blot (i); although variable results in young GKI mice suggest no loss of DAT. ii) A significant main genotype effect (due to increased DAT levels in aged GKI mice) revealed increases in striatal DAT levels in the presence of endogenous G2019S. 2-way values are shown.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
