Popis: | 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor 5B (5-HT5B) is a gene coding for a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) that plays key roles in several neurodevelopmental disorders. Our previous study showed that disruption of 5-HT5B induced by lysine (K)-specific demethylase 6A (Kdm6a, also known as Utx) conditional knockout (cKO) in mouse hippocampus was associated with cognition deficits underlying intellectual disability in Kabuki syndrome (KS), a rare disease associated with multiple congenital and developmental abnormalities, especially neurobehavioral features. Here we show that Utx knockout (KO) in cultured hippocampal neurons leads to impaired neuronal excitability and calcium homeostasis. In addition, we show that 5-HT5B overexpression reverses dysregulation of neuronal excitability, intracellular calcium homeostasis, and long-term potentiation (LTP) in cultured Utx KO hippocampal neurons and hippocampal slices. More importantly, overexpression of 5-HT5B in Utx cKO mice results in reversal of abnormal anxiety-like behaviors and impaired spatial memory ability. Our findings therefore indicate that 5-HT5B, as a downstream target of Utx, functions to modulate electrophysiological outcomes, thereby affecting behavioral activities in KS mouse models. |
