Tat-interacting protein 60 (TIP60) as nuclear receptors (NRs) coregulator, acts as a tumor suppressor and also has promising therapeutic potential to target Alzheimer's disease. Stress has been implicated in many psychiatric disorders, and these disorders are characterized by impairments in cognitive function. Until now, there are no experimental data available on the regulatory effect of TIP60 in acute stress and depression. There is also no definitive explanation on which specific modulation of target gene expression is achieved by TIP60. Here, we identify TIP60 as a novel positive regulator in response to acute restraint stress (ARS) and a potentially effective target of antidepressants. Firstly, we discovered increased hippocampal TIP60 expressions in the ARS model. Furthermore, using the TIP60 inhibitor, MG149, we proved that TIP60 function correlates with behavioral and synaptic activation in the two-hour ARS. Secondly, the lentivirus vector (LV)-TIP60 |
