项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Synaptic N-methyl-D-aspartic acid (NMDA) receptors (NMDARs), composed, in large part, of NR2A-containing NMDARs (NR2ARs), promote cell survival, whereas extrasynaptic NMDARs, NR2B-containing NMDARs (NR2BRs), induce cell death. It is known that a host of macrophage inflammatory and viral products engage NMDARs, but there is very limited information available on how these receptors can be "best" utilized for optimal therapeutic benefit. To this end we seek funds to assess the role of HIV-1-infected and immune competent mononuclear phagocytes (MPs, brain perivascular macrophages and microglia) to affect extrasynaptic NR2BRs. MPs are the natural virus target cells and the key to neuronal dysfunction in HIV-1- associated neurocognitive disorders (HAND). Immunocytochemical, pharmacological and electrophysiological techniques will examine the role of extrasynaptic NR2BRs in HIV-1 infected MP-induced neuronal dysfunction and resultant cognitive impairment in laboratory and animal models of human disease. First, we will examine direct activation of NR2BRs by HIV-1 infected MP and resultant neurotoxic activity. Second, we will investigate the role of NR2BRs in HIV-1 infected MP-induced alteration of synaptic transmission and plasticity. Third, we will study whether HIV-1 infected MP-induced, NR2BR-mediated alteration of cellular and synaptic physiology contributes to HAND, and to explore potential protective effects of NR2BR antagonists in a relevant murine model of HIV disease. Overall, these studies are focused toward not only understanding the role that the subtype and location of NMDARs might play in HAND, but also on developing more realistic means to harness these pathways for therapeutic benefit. If successful, these studies will provide a proper roadmap for expected efficacy of NMDAR antagonists in ameliorating brain injury. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: Synaptic N-methyl-D-aspartic acid (NMDA) receptors (NMDARs), composed, in large part, of NR2A-containing NMDARs (NR2ARs), promote cell survival, whereas extrasynaptic NMDARs, NR2B-containing NMDARs (NR2BRs), induce cell death. This proposal investigates how HIV-1-infected mononuclear phagocytes (brain macrophages and microglia) activate neuronal extrasynaptic NR2BRs, leading to neuronal damage and ultimately neurocognitive dysfunction. By completion of the proposed studies we will not only provide new insights into the mechanisms underlying the neuropathogenesis of HIV-1 infection, but also furnish new target(s) for the development of potential therapies in the prevention and treatment of HIV-1 disease.

描述（由申请人提供）：突触N-甲基-D-天冬氨酸（NMDA）受体（NMDARS），在很大程度上是含NR2A的NMDAR（NR2ARS）组成的，促进细胞存活，而含NR2B的NR2B NMDARS（NR2B）NMDARS（NR2BR）（NR2BR）（NR2BRS），指出。众所周知，许多巨噬细胞炎症和病毒产品吸引了NMDAR，但是关于如何使用这些受体的“最佳”可用信息有限，以获得最佳的治疗益处。为此，我们寻求资金来评估HIV-1感染和免疫胜任的单核吞噬细胞（MPS，脑血管周围巨噬细胞和小胶质细胞）对影响外欺诈性NR2BR的作用。 MPS是天然病毒靶细胞，也是HIV-1相关神经认知疾病（手）中神经元功能障碍的关键。免疫细胞化学，药理和电生理技术将检查外触觉NR2BRS在HIV-1感染的MP诱导的神经元功能障碍中的作用，并在人类疾病的实验室和动物模型中产生的认知障碍。首先，我们将通过HIV-1感染的MP和导致的神经毒性活性检查NR2BRS的直接激活。其次，我们将研究NR2BRS在HIV-1感染MP诱导的突触传播和可塑性改变的作用。第三，我们将研究HIV-1感染的MP诱导的NR2BR介导的细胞和突触生理学的改变有助于手，并在相关的HIV疾病模型中探索NR2BR拮抗剂的潜在保护作用。总体而言，这些研究不仅侧重于了解NMDAR的亚型和位置可能发挥的作用，而且还致力于开发更现实的手段来利用这些途径以获得治疗益处。如果成功，这些研究将为NMDAR拮抗剂在改善脑损伤中的预期功效提供适当的路线图。公共卫生相关性：突触N-甲基-D-天冬氨酸（NMDA）受体（NMDAR），在很大程度上是含NR2A的NMDAR（NR2AR）（NR2ARS）的组成，促进细胞的存活，而外部抗衰的NMDARS，NR2B，NR2B NR2B的NR2BARS（NR2BR 2 BR2BRS），INDICE CYLECE CYLECE。该提案研究了HIV-1感染的单核吞噬细胞（脑巨噬细胞和小胶质细胞）如何激活神经元外发性NR2BR，从而导致神经元损伤并最终导致神经认知功能障碍。通过完成拟议的研究，我们不仅将提供有关HIV-1感染神经发生的机制的新见解，而且还为在预防和治疗HIV-1疾病中开发潜在疗法提供了新的靶标。
