Abstract
The contribution of neuroglial interactions to the regulation of energy balance has gained increasing acceptance in recent years. In this context, endozepines, endogenous analogs of benzodiazepine derived from diazepam-binding inhibitor, are now emerging as major players. Produced by glial cells (astrocytes and tanycytes), endozepines have been known for two decades to exert potent anorexigenic effects by acting at the hypothalamic level. However, it is only recently that their modes of action, including the mechanisms by which they modulate energy metabolism, have begun to be elucidated. The data available today are abundant, significant, and sometimes contradictory, revealing a much more complex regulation than initially expected. Several mechanisms of action of endozepines seem to coexist at the central level, particularly in the hypothalamus. The brainstem has also recently emerged as a potential site of action for endozepines. In addition to their central anorexigenic effects, endozepines may also display peripheral effects promoting orexigenic actions, adding to their complexity and raising yet more questions. In this review, we attempt to provide an overview of our current knowledge in this rapidly evolving field and to pinpoint questions that remain unanswered.

Detection, characterization and biological activities of [bisphospho-thr3,9]ODN, an endogenous molecular form of ODN released by astrocytes. Neuroscience 2015; 290:472-84. [PMID: 25639232 DOI: 10.1016/j.neuroscience.2015.01.045] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2014] [Revised: 12/29/2014] [Accepted: 01/05/2015] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
Astrocytes synthesize and release endozepines, a family of regulatory neuropeptides, including diazepam-binding inhibitor (DBI) and its processing fragments such as the octadecaneuropeptide (ODN). At the molecular level, ODN interacts with two types of receptors, i.e. it acts as an inverse agonist of the central-type benzodiazepine receptor (CBR), and as an agonist of a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR). ODN exerts a wide range of biological effects mediated through these two receptors and, in particular, it regulates astrocyte activity through an autocrine/paracrine mechanism involving the metabotropic receptor. More recently, it has been shown that Müller glial cells secrete phosphorylated DBI and that bisphosphorylated ODN ([bisphospho-Thr(3,9)]ODN, bpODN) has a stronger affinity for CBR than ODN. The aim of the present study was thus to investigate whether bpODN is released by mouse cortical astrocytes and to compare its potency to ODN. Using a radioimmunoassay and mass spectrometry analysis we have shown that bpODN as well as ODN were released in cultured astrocyte supernatants. Both bpODN and ODN increased astrocyte calcium event frequency but in a very different range of concentration. Indeed, ODN stimulatory effect decreased at concentrations over 10(-10)M whereas bpODN increased the calcium event frequency at similar doses. In vivo effects of bpODN and ODN were analyzed in two behavioral paradigms involving either the metabotropic receptor (anorexia) or the CBR (anxiety). As previously described, ODN (100ng, icv) induced a significant reduction of food intake. Similar effect was achieved with bpODN but at a 10 times higher dose (1000 ng, icv). Similarly, and contrasting with our hypothesis, bpODN was also 10 times less potent than ODN to induce anxiety-related behavior in the elevated zero maze test. Thus, the present data do not support that phosphorylation of ODN is involved in receptor selectivity but indicate that it rather weakens ODN activity.

Abstract
Oxidative stress, induced by various neurodegenerative diseases, initiates a cascade of events leading to apoptosis, and thus plays a critical role in neuronal injury. In this study, we have investigated the potential neuroprotective effect of the octadecaneuropeptide (ODN) on 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA)-induced oxidative stress and apoptosis in cerebellar granule neurons (CGN). ODN, which is produced by astrocytes, is an endogenous ligand for both central-type benzodiazepine receptors (CBR) and a metabotropic receptor. Incubation of neurons with subnanomolar concentrations of ODN (10⁻¹⁸ to 10⁻¹² M) inhibited 6-OHDA-evoked cell death in a concentration-dependent manner. The effect of ODN on neuronal survival was abrogated by the metabotropic receptor antagonist, cyclo₁₋₈ [DLeu⁵]OP, but not by a CBR antagonist. ODN stimulated polyphosphoinositide turnover and ERK phosphorylation in CGN. The protective effect of ODN against 6-OHDA toxicity involved the phospholipase C/ERK MAPK transduction cascade. 6-OHDA treatment induced an accumulation of reactive oxygen species, an increase of the expression of the pro-apoptotic gene Bax, a drop of the mitochondrial membrane potential and a stimulation of caspase-3 activity. Exposure of 6-OHDA-treated cells to ODN blocked all the deleterious effects of the toxin. Taken together, these data demonstrate for the first time that ODN is a neuroprotective agent that prevents 6-OHDA-induced oxidative stress and apoptotic cell death.

Abstract
Astroglial cells possess an array of cellular defense systems, including superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase antioxidant enzymes, to prevent damage caused by oxidative stress on the central nervous system. Astrocytes specifically synthesize and release endozepines, a family of regulatory peptides including the octadecaneuropeptide (ODN). ODN is the ligand of both central-type benzodiazepine receptors (CBR), and an adenylyl cyclase- and phospholipase C-coupled receptor. We have recently shown that ODN is a potent protective agent that prevents hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2))-induced inhibition of SOD and catalase activities and stimulation of cell apoptosis in astrocytes. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the type of receptor involved in ODN-induced inhibition of SOD and catalase in cultured rat astrocytes. We found that ODN induced a rapid stimulation of SOD and catalase gene transcription in a concentration-dependent manner. In addition, 0.1 nM ODN blocked H(2)O(2)-evoked reduction of both mRNA levels and activities of SOD and catalase. Furthermore, the inhibitory actions of ODN on the deleterious effects of H(2)O(2) on SOD and catalase were abrogated by the metabotropic ODN receptor antagonist cyclo(1-8)[Dleu(5)]OP, but not by the CBR antagonist flumazenil. Finally, the protective action of ODN against H(2)O(2)-evoked inhibition of endogenous antioxidant systems in astrocytes was protein kinase A (PKA)-dependent, but protein kinase C-independent. Taken together, these data demonstrate for the first time that ODN, acting through its metabotropic receptor coupled to the PKA pathway, prevents oxidative stress-induced alteration of antioxidant enzyme expression and activities. The peptide ODN is thus a potential candidate for the development of specific agonists that would selectively mimic its protective activity.

Region specific gene expression profile in mouse brain after chronic corticotropin releasing factor receptor 1 activation: the novel role for diazepam binding inhibitor in contextual fear conditioning. Neuroscience 2009; 162:14-22.

Abstract
We have previously reported that repeated central administration of sub-anxiogenic doses of the corticotropin releasing factor 1 (CRF(1)) agonist Cortagine, termed "priming," elicits a phenotype of increased anxiety-like behaviors in the elevated plus maze (EPM) and open-field test, and enhanced retention of contextual conditioned fear in C57BL/6J mice. Observed behavioral changes were functionally coupled to CRF(1)-mediated elevated central cholecystokinin (CCK) tone in discrete brain regions. However, the changes in gene expression that mediated "priming"-induced behavioral and concurrent molecular changes in specific brain regions remained unknown. In the present study, a complementary DNA microarray analysis was used to investigate gene expression profiles in the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex (PFC) of C57BL/6J mice following the "priming" procedure. Here, we report that chronic stimulation of CRF(1), by i.c.v. administration of 10 ng Cortagine for five days, brought about alterations in the expression of a wide range of hippocampal (31 genes) and PFC (18 genes) genes, implicated in anxiety and aversive memory formation. These expression changes involved genes associated with signal transduction, neurotransmitter secretion, synaptic transmission, myelination, and others involved in the transport, biosynthesis, and binding of proteins. In particular, several genes of the protein kinase A (PKA) and protein kinase C (PKC) signaling cascades, known to be involved in synaptic plasticity, such as neurogranin, calmodulin 3, and the PKA regulatory subunit 1 b were found to be upregulated in the PFC and hippocampus of CRF(1) agonist "primed" mice. Moreover, we show pharmacologically that one of the newly implicated memory regulatory elements, diazepam-binding inhibitor (DBI) is functionally involved in hippocampus-dependent enhancement of contextual fear, a cardinal phenotypic feature of the "primed" mice. Finally, an interaction network mapping of the altered genes and their known interacting partners identified additional molecular candidates responsible for CRF(1)-mediated hypersensitive fear circuitry.

Abstract
C57BL/6J (B6) and DBA2/J (D2) mice differ markedly in voluntary consumption of tastants and responses to abused drugs. In particular, compared to D2 mice, B6 mice avidly drink ethanol and sucrose solutions, but avoid quinine solutions. In the first study, we compared taste reactivity in B6 and D2 mice to determine the extent to which differences in drinking patterns depend on orosensory processing. Both strains showed concentration-dependent increases in positive reactions to sucrose (0.01 to 1 M). Quinine (0.03 to 3 mM) elicited concentration-dependent aversive reactions in B6 mice, whereas all reactions to quinine were virtually indistinguishable from reactions to water in D2 mice. In contrast, D2 mice reacted with relatively strong aversive responses to ethanol (5 to 30%). In the second study, we evaluated the effect of subcutaneous morphine (1 to 4 mg/kg) and methamphetamine (0.5 to 2 mg/kg) on taste reactivity to sucrose. Morphine generally decreased reactions to sucrose in both strains, suggesting a general motor depressant effect. Methamphetamine shifted sucrose responses towards aversion in both strains; particularly in D2 mice. These results suggest that strain-dependent differences in voluntary ethanol and quinine drinking depend at least partially on differences in orosensory responses. However, differences in voluntary sucrose intake may relate solely to genetic differences in post-ingestive factors. Finally, as has been suggested by previous place conditioning studies, methamphetamine appears to induce a dysphoric state in D2 mice, which may be reflected in fewer positive and more negative taste reactions to sucrose in the current study.
