Differential gene expression in nucleus accumbens somatostatin interneurons_cocaine_mice_logFC
Description:
To characterize transcriptional alterations that cocaine induces in these cells, we perform cell type-specific RNA-sequencing on FACS-isolated nuclei of somatostatin interneurons and identified 1100 DETs enriched for processes related to neural plasticity. To profile the entire (non poly-A selected) transcriptome of NAc somatostatin interneurons, we generated a transgenic reporter line (SST-TLG498 mice) to label the nuclei of these cells with a modified form of EGFP that is retained in the nuclear membrane (EGFP-F)22, enabling their isolation from NAc dissections using FACS. We succeeded in FACS-isolating nuclei suitable for RNA-sequencing from individual SST-TLG498 mice. We proceeded with differential expression analysis of the RNA-sequencing data to identify differentially expressed transcripts (DETs) in NAc somatostatin interneurons in response to repeated cocaine exposure: 778 transcripts were upregulated by cocaine and 322 were downregulated.

Transcriptomic analysis of gene expression in the nucleus accumbens somatostatin interneurons of male 8�12-week-old Sst-Cre mice or Sst-Cre x TLG498 (SST-TLG498) mice following repeated cocaine intake. Expression was measured via RNA-seq. Values presented are p-values. Data taken from Supplementary Data 1. Data can be accessed at GEO with accession number: GSE116484.A7

Ethanol induced LORR Chr# 2 rs13476399(28144658) with right flanking marker rs3713997(3151175) and left marker rs3679483 (179861211). This was mapped in 300 + (b6x129)F2 mice.
The current study used two inbred mouse strains, C57BL/6 J and A/J, to investigate the genetics of behavioral responses to fentanyl. Mice were tested for conditioned place preference and fentanyl-induced locomotor activity. C57BL/6J mice formed a conditioned place preference to fentanyl injections and fentanyl increased their activity. Neither effect was noted in A/J mice. We conducted RNA-sequencing on the nucleus accumbens of mice used for fentanyl-induced locomotor activity. Surprisingly, we noted few differentially expressed genes using treatment as the main factor. However many genes differed between strains.

Small intestine transcriptome changes in morphine treated mice. Eight-week-old, pathogen free, C57BL/6 male mice were used for this study (morphine n = 5, control n = 5). The animals were anesthetized using isoflurane (Pivetal®) and a 25mg slow-release morphine pellet or placebo pellet was implanted subcutaneously. Treatment lasted 16 hours. mRNA was purified from total RNA from using poly T-magnetic beads and strand specific library was constructed by using NEBNext Ultra RNA library prep kit. After quality control, the libraries were sequenced paired end by using Illumina sequencers (Illumina HiSeq 4000) for a read length of 150 base pairs. Clean reads were mapped to the mouse transcriptome using “STAR” software. The subsequent differential gene expression analysis was performed using DESeq2 R package (log2 (Fold change) > 1, P adj<0.05).
Small intestine transcriptome changes in morphine treated mice without microbiome (Abx+morphine (AM)) (n = 7) vs morphine treated mice (n = 5). Eight-week-old, pathogen free, C57BL/6 male mice were used for this study. For depletion of the gut microbiota, a pan-antibiotics+antifungal cocktail [vancomycin 32 (mg/kg), bacitracin (80mg/kg), metronidazole (80mg/kg), neomycin (320mg/kg), and pimaricin (0.192mg/kg)] was prepared every day in drinking water. The cocktail was administered by oral gavage for 7 days as described previously. The animals were anesthetized using isoflurane (Pivetal®) and a 25mg slow-release morphine pellet or placebo pellet was implanted subcutaneously. Treatment lasted 16 hours. mRNA was purified from total RNA from using poly T-magnetic beads and strand specific library was constructed by using NEBNext Ultra RNA library prep kit. After quality control, the libraries were sequenced paired end by using Illumina sequencers (Illumina NovaSeq 6000) for a read length of 150 base pairs. Clean reads were mapped to the mouse transcriptome using “STAR” software. The subsequent differential gene expression analysis was performed using DESeq2 R package (log2 (Fold change) > 1, P adj<0.05).
DEG male mouse forebrain 3-tri morphine vs saline_pvalue
Description:
To examine forebrain transcriptomic changes that might elucidate mechanisms of withdrawal, delayed development, and any long-term behavior changes, we generated transcriptomic signatures following our “3-trimester” exposure model (3-Tri). In addition, we also examined transcriptomes from animals that received opioids only during the gestational period (PND1) or only during the last trimester from PND 1–14 (PND 14). We sought to determine whether transcriptomic signatures vary based on the window of exposure, perhaps contributing to the discrepancies in the literature regarding acute and long-term outcomes. Brains were dissected from PND 1 pups 6 h after discovery. Brains were dissected from post-natal exposure only (PND 14) or 3-trimester exposure (3-tri) 6 h after the last morphine or saline injection. The number of animals per group was similar (N = 5–7 animals, male and female C57Bl/6NTac mice), and the quality controls, library construction and sequence parameters were also identical across all groups. Libraries were sequenced on a NovaSeq 6000 at a depth of 30 million total reads/sample using paired-end sequencing of 150 base pairs (PE150), to a depth of 30 million total reads/sample. Reads were then mapped to the mouse reference genome (Mus Musculus, GRCm38/mm10) using HISAT2 (version 2.2.1), and duplicated fragments were removed using Picard MarkDuplicates. Differential expression analysis between two conditions (e.g., Morphine and Saline) was performed in R (version 4.1.1) with DESeq2 (v1.32.0) package. Genes were assigned by the authors as differentially expressed if the (adjusted) (nominal) p-value < 0.05. All genes/scores are presented here.
