  text: "Within the human body, the brain exhibits the highest rate of energy consumption
    amongst all organs, with the majority of generated ATP being utilized to sustain
    neuronal activity. Therefore, the metabolism of the mature cerebral cortex is
    geared towards preserving metabolic homeostasis whilst generating significant
    amounts of energy. This requires a precise interplay between diverse metabolic
    pathways, spanning from a tissue-wide scale to the level of individual neurons.
    Disturbances to this delicate metabolic equilibrium, such as those resulting from
    maternal malnutrition\r\nor mutations affecting metabolic enzymes, often result
    in neuropathological variants of neurodevelopment. For instance, mutations in
    SLC7A5, a transporter of metabolically essential large neutral amino acids (LNAAs),
    have been associated with autism and microcephaly. However, despite recent progress
    in the field, the extent of metabolic restructuring that occurs within the developing
    brain and the corresponding alterations in nutrient demands during various critical
    periods remain largely unknown. To investigate this, we performed metabolomic
    profiling of the murine cerebral cortex to characterize the metabolic state of
    the forebrain at different developmental stages. We found that the developing
    cortex undergoes substantial metabolic reprogramming, with specific sets of metabolites
    displaying stage-specific changes. According to our observations, we determined
    a distinct temporal period in postnatal development during which the cortex displays
    heightened reliance on LNAAs. Hence, using a conditional knock-out mouse model,
    we deleted Slc7a5 in neural cells, allowing us to monitor the impact of a perturbed
    neuronal metabolic state across multiple developmental stages of corticogenesis.
    We found that manipulating the levels of essential LNAAs in cortical neurons in
    vivo affects one particular perinatal developmental period critical for cortical
    network refinement. Abnormally low intracellular LNAA levels result in cell-autonomous
    alterations in neuronal lipid metabolism, excitability, and survival during this
    particular time window. Although most of the effects of Slc7a5 deletion on neuronal
    physiology are transient, derailment of these processes during this brief but
    crucial window leads to long-term circuit dysfunction in mice. In conclusion,
    out data indicate that the cerebral cortex undergoes significant metabolic reorganization
    during development. This process involves the intricate integration of multiple
    metabolic pathways to ensure optimal neuronal function throughout different developmental
    stages. Our findings offer a paradigm for understanding how neurons synchronize
    the expression of nutrient-related genes with their activity to allow proper brain
    maturation. Further, our results demonstrate that disruptions in these precisely
    calibrated metabolic processes during critical periods of brain development may
    result in neuropathological outcomes in mice and in humans."

  text: Three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of living brain tissue down to an individual
    synapse level would create opportunities for decoding the dynamics and structure–function
    relationships of the brain’s complex and dense information processing network;
    however, this has been hindered by insufficient 3D resolution, inadequate signal-to-noise
    ratio and prohibitive light burden in optical imaging, whereas electron microscopy
    is inherently static. Here we solved these challenges by developing an integrated
    optical/machine-learning technology, LIONESS (live information-optimized nanoscopy
    enabling saturated segmentation). This leverages optical modifications to stimulated
    emission depletion microscopy in comprehensively, extracellularly labeled tissue
    and previous information on sample structure via machine learning to simultaneously
    achieve isotropic super-resolution, high signal-to-noise ratio and compatibility
    with living tissue. This allows dense deep-learning-based instance segmentation
    and 3D reconstruction at a synapse level, incorporating molecular, activity and
    morphodynamic information. LIONESS opens up avenues for studying the dynamic functional
    (nano-)architecture of living brain tissue.

  text: Mapping the complex and dense arrangement of cells and their connectivity
    in brain tissue demands nanoscale spatial resolution imaging. Super-resolution
    optical microscopy excels at visualizing specific molecules and individual cells
    but fails to provide tissue context. Here we developed Comprehensive Analysis
    of Tissues across Scales (CATS), a technology to densely map brain tissue architecture
    from millimeter regional to nanometer synaptic scales in diverse chemically fixed
    brain preparations, including rodent and human. CATS uses fixation-compatible
    extracellular labeling and optical imaging, including stimulated emission depletion
    or expansion microscopy, to comprehensively delineate cellular structures. It
    enables three-dimensional reconstruction of single synapses and mapping of synaptic
    connectivity by identification and analysis of putative synaptic cleft regions.
    Applying CATS to the mouse hippocampal mossy fiber circuitry, we reconstructed
    and quantified the synaptic input and output structure of identified neurons.
    We furthermore demonstrate applicability to clinically derived human tissue samples,
    including formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded routine diagnostic specimens, for visualizing
    the cellular architecture of brain tissue in health and disease.

  text: Little is known about the critical metabolic changes that neural cells have
    to undergo during development and how temporary shifts in this program can influence
    brain circuitries and behavior. Inspired by the discovery that mutations in SLC7A5,
    a transporter of metabolically essential large neutral amino acids (LNAAs), lead
    to autism, we employed metabolomic profiling to study the metabolic states of
    the cerebral cortex across different developmental stages. We found that the forebrain
    undergoes significant metabolic remodeling throughout development, with certain
    groups of metabolites showing stage-specific changes, but what are the consequences
    of perturbing this metabolic program? By manipulating Slc7a5 expression in neural
    cells, we found that the metabolism of LNAAs and lipids are interconnected in
    the cortex. Deletion of Slc7a5 in neurons affects the postnatal metabolic state,
    leading to a shift in lipid metabolism. Additionally, it causes stage- and cell-type-specific
    alterations in neuronal activity patterns, resulting in a long-term circuit dysfunction.

  text: De novo loss of function mutations in the ubiquitin ligase-encoding gene Cullin3
    lead to autism spectrum disorder (ASD). In mouse, constitutive haploinsufficiency
    leads to motor coordination deficits as well as ASD-relevant social and cognitive
    impairments. However, induction of Cul3 haploinsufficiency later in life does
    not lead to ASD-relevant behaviors, pointing to an important role of Cul3 during
    a critical developmental window. Here we show that Cul3 is essential to regulate
    neuronal migration and, therefore, constitutive Cul3 heterozygous mutant mice
    display cortical lamination abnormalities. At the molecular level, we found that
    Cul3 controls neuronal migration by tightly regulating the amount of Plastin3
    (Pls3), a previously unrecognized player of neural migration. Furthermore, we
    found that Pls3 cell-autonomously regulates cell migration by regulating actin
    cytoskeleton organization, and its levels are inversely proportional to neural
    migration speed. Finally, we provide evidence that cellular phenotypes associated
    with autism-linked gene haploinsufficiency can be rescued by transcriptional activation
    of the intact allele in vitro, offering a proof of concept for a potential therapeutic
    approach for ASDs.

  text: Mutations affecting mTOR or RAS signaling underlie defined syndromes (the
    so-called mTORopathies and RASopathies) with high risk for Autism Spectrum Disorder
    (ASD). These syndromes show a broad variety of somatic phenotypes including cancers,
    skin abnormalities, heart disease and facial dysmorphisms. Less well studied are
    the neuropsychiatric symptoms such as ASD. Here, we assess the relevance of these
    signalopathies in ASD reviewing genetic, human cell model, rodent studies and
    clinical trials. We conclude that signalopathies have an increased liability for
    ASD and that, in particular, ASD individuals with dysmorphic features and intellectual
    disability (ID) have a higher chance for disruptive mutations in RAS- and mTOR-related
    genes. Studies on rodent and human cell models confirm aberrant neuronal development
    as the underlying pathology. Human studies further suggest that multiple hits
    are necessary to induce the respective phenotypes. Recent clinical trials do only
    report improvements for comorbid conditions such as epilepsy or cancer but not
    for behavioral aspects. Animal models show that treatment during early development
    can rescue behavioral phenotypes. Taken together, we suggest investigating the
    differential roles of mTOR and RAS signaling in both human and rodent models,
    and to test drug treatment both during and after neuronal development in the available
    model systems

  text: De novo loss of function mutations in the ubiquitin ligase-encoding gene Cullin3
    (CUL3) lead to autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Here, we used Cul3 mouse models
    to evaluate the consequences of Cul3 mutations in vivo. Our results show that
    Cul3 haploinsufficient mice exhibit deficits in motor coordination as well as
    ASD-relevant social and cognitive impairments. Cul3 mutant brain displays cortical
    lamination abnormalities due to defective neuronal migration and reduced numbers
    of excitatory and inhibitory neurons. In line with the observed abnormal columnar
    organization, Cul3 haploinsufficiency is associated with decreased spontaneous
    excitatory and inhibitory activity in the cortex. At the molecular level, employing
    a quantitative proteomic approach, we show that Cul3 regulates cytoskeletal and
    adhesion protein abundance in mouse embryos. Abnormal regulation of cytoskeletal
    proteins in Cul3 mutant neuronal cells results in atypical organization of the
    actin mesh at the cell leading edge, likely causing the observed migration deficits.
    In contrast to these important functions early in development, Cul3 deficiency
    appears less relevant at adult stages. In fact, induction of Cul3 haploinsufficiency
    in adult mice does not result in the behavioral defects observed in constitutive
    Cul3 haploinsufficient animals. Taken together, our data indicate that Cul3 has
    a critical role in the regulation of cytoskeletal proteins and neuronal migration
    and that ASD-associated defects and behavioral abnormalities are primarily due
    to Cul3 functions at early developmental stages.

  text: The possibility to generate construct valid animal models enabled the development
    and testing of therapeutic strategies targeting the core features of autism spectrum
    disorders (ASDs). At the same time, these studies highlighted the necessity of
    identifying sensitive developmental time windows for successful therapeutic interventions.
    Animal and human studies also uncovered the possibility to stratify the variety
    of ASDs in molecularly distinct subgroups, potentially facilitating effective
    treatment design. Here, we focus on the molecular pathways emerging as commonly
    affected by mutations in diverse ASD-risk genes, on their role during critical
    windows of brain development and the potential treatments targeting these biological
    processes.

  text: "The development of the human brain occurs through a tightly regulated series
    of dynamic and adaptive processes during prenatal and postnatal life. A disruption
    of this strictly orchestrated series of events can lead to a number of neurodevelopmental
    conditions, including Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASDs). ASDs are a very common,
    etiologically and phenotypically heterogeneous group of disorders sharing the
    core symptoms of social interaction and communication deficits and restrictive
    and repetitive interests and behaviors. They are estimated to affect one in 59
    individuals in the U.S. and, over the last three decades, mutations in more than
    a hundred genetic loci have been convincingly linked to ASD pathogenesis. Yet,
    for the vast majority of these ASD-risk genes their role during brain development
    and precise molecular function still remain elusive.\r\nDe novo loss of function
    mutations in the ubiquitin ligase-encoding gene Cullin 3 (CUL3) lead to ASD. In
    the study described here, we used Cul3 mouse models to evaluate the consequences
    of Cul3 mutations in vivo. Our results show that Cul3 heterozygous knockout mice
    exhibit deficits in motor coordination as well as ASD-relevant social and cognitive
    impairments. Cul3+/-, Cul3+/fl Emx1-Cre and Cul3fl/fl Emx1-Cre mutant brains display
    cortical lamination abnormalities due to defective migration of post-mitotic excitatory
    neurons, as well as reduced numbers of excitatory and inhibitory neurons. In line
    with the observed abnormal cortical organization, Cul3 heterozygous deletion is
    associated with decreased spontaneous excitatory and inhibitory activity in the
    cortex. At the molecular level we show that Cul3 regulates cytoskeletal and adhesion
    protein abundance in the mouse embryonic cortex. Abnormal regulation of cytoskeletal
    proteins in Cul3 mutant neural cells results in atypical organization of the actin
    mesh at the cell leading edge. Of note, heterozygous deletion of Cul3 in adult
    mice does not induce the majority of the behavioral defects observed in constitutive
    Cul3 haploinsufficient animals, pointing to a critical time-window for Cul3 deficiency.\r\nIn
    conclusion, our data indicate that Cul3 plays a critical role in the regulation
    of cytoskeletal proteins and neuronal migration. ASD-associated defects and behavioral
    abnormalities are primarily due to dosage sensitive Cul3 functions at early brain
    developmental stages."

  text: "Background\r\nSynaptic vesicles (SVs) are an integral part of the neurotransmission
    machinery, and isolation of SVs from their host neuron is necessary to reveal
    their most fundamental biochemical and functional properties in in vitro assays.
    Isolated SVs from neurons that have been genetically engineered, e.g. to introduce
    genetically encoded indicators, are not readily available but would permit new
    insights into SV structure and function. Furthermore, it is unclear if cultured
    neurons can provide sufficient starting material for SV isolation procedures.\r\n\r\nNew
    method\r\nHere, we demonstrate an efficient ex vivo procedure to obtain functional
    SVs from cultured rat cortical neurons after genetic engineering with a lentivirus.\r\n\r\nResults\r\nWe
    show that ∼108 plated cortical neurons allow isolation of suitable SV amounts
    for functional analysis and imaging. We found that SVs isolated from cultured
    neurons have neurotransmitter uptake comparable to that of SVs isolated from intact
    cortex. Using total internal reflection fluorescence (TIRF) microscopy, we visualized
    an exogenous SV-targeted marker protein and demonstrated the high efficiency of
    SV modification.\r\n\r\nComparison with existing methods\r\nObtaining SVs from
    genetically engineered neurons currently generally requires the availability of
    transgenic animals, which is constrained by technical (e.g. cost and time) and
    biological (e.g. developmental defects and lethality) limitations.\r\n\r\nConclusions\r\nThese
    results demonstrate the modification and isolation of functional SVs using cultured
    neurons and viral transduction. The ability to readily obtain SVs from genetically
    engineered neurons will permit linking in situ studies to in vitro experiments
    in a variety of genetic contexts."
