Since movement suppresses auditory cortical activity, it remains unclear how salient auditory information influences locomotor circuits. In this work, using in vivo calcium imaging, electrophysiology, chemo- and optogenetics, we investigate the path that relays loud broadband sounds to the dorsal hippocampus (dHPC) and modulates theta oscillations. We demonstrate that noise accelerates theta frequency and decreases its power, effects mediated by entorhinal cortex (EC) and medial septum (MS) inputs while independent of the primary auditory cortex. Activation of dorsal cochlear nucleus (DCN) neurons projecting to the pontine reticular nucleus (PRN) mimics noise-driven hippocampal responses, supporting a brainstem-limbic auditory processing route. Furthermore, noise selectively modulates CA1 pyramidal neuron and interneuron activity, reflecting diverse circuit dynamics. Finally, loud broadband noise stimulus increased theta coherence between the dHPC and the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC), enhancing interregional synchronization. These results highlight the mechanisms in which the DCN filters behaviorally relevant sounds promoting acoustic motor integration in the hippocampus during locomotion, without direct influence of the auditory cortex.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":20851,"journal":{"name":"Progress in Neurobiology","volume":"252 ","pages":"Article 102811"},"PeriodicalIF":6.1,"publicationDate":"2025-08-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144842491","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we identified the neuronal-specific transcription factor Npas4 as a key player in this process. We first showed that social isolation results in aberrant adolescent developmental trajectories of Npas4 and PV expression in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) leading to prolonged downregulation of Npas4 and upregulation of PV, suggesting an Npas4-driven over-inhibition of prefrontal circuits following early social isolation. Using Npas4 knockout (KO) mice and iDISCO whole brain cFos mapping, we then further implicated Npas4-dependent reduction in prefrontal activity with appearance of sociability deficits in adulthood: Npas4 KO mice failed to show an age-increase in sociability and in activity of the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) that we observed in wild-type mice during the transition from adolescence to adulthood. Finally, using a viral approach to restore prefrontal Npas4 expression during early adolescence, we were able to rescue the sociability deficits and aberrant expression of PV in the AAC induced by social isolation. Altogether, our findings identified Npas4 as a novel molecular mediator of early social isolation on social deficits, through the role it plays on the adolescent maturation of prefrontal PV neurons.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":20851,"journal":{"name":"Progress in Neurobiology","volume":"252 ","pages":"Article 102810"},"PeriodicalIF":6.1,"publicationDate":"2025-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144856204","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Numerous symptoms associated with neurodegenerative diseases, such as sleep disorders, anxiety, and mood alteration, are linked to circadian clock dysregulation. Dysregulation of the circadian system is increasingly implicated in the onset and progression of Alzheimer's disease, and emerging evidence highlights a bidirectional relationship between Alzheimer’s disease and circadian clock disruption. A crucial point is that the circadian clock regulates adult neurogenesis, a process that is significantly impaired in Alzheimer’s disease. Recent advancements suggest that the dynamic epigenetic mechanisms—including DNA and histone modifications as well as regulation by non-coding RNA—act as a critical regulation for circadian rhythms and neurogenesis. Therefore, research on circadian disruption and, particularly, focus on harmonising the circadian clock with neurogenesis in neurodegenerative diseases may also speed up the creation of innovative, circadian-based treatments to counteract the progress of neurological disorders from a new perspective.

APP and BACE1 are segregated in neurons, and mechanisms triggering their convergence have remained poorly understood, limiting therapeutic attempts to reduce Aβ production. Neural cell adhesion molecule 2 (NCAM2) is a cell surface localized protein, which increases Aβ levels via mechanisms that are not known. We show that APP binds to the extracellular domain of NCAM2. The intracellular domain of NCAM2 binds to the Rab11 adaptor protein Rab11-FIP5. The NCAM2/APP complex is endocytosed from the cell surface and targeted to BACE1-containing Rab11-positive recycling endosomes where it is processed. Convergence of APP with BACE1 is increased in transfected CHO cells and neurons expressing NCAM2. Consequently, the levels of amyloidogenic APP cleavage products are increased in cells expressing NCAM2. In NCAM2-deficient neurons, APP accumulates at the cell surface and in early endosomes, and APP levels in recycling endosomes are reduced. Aβ production is increased by Aβ oligomers and neuronal activity, and we show that the binding of NCAM2 to APP is increased in neurons treated with Aβ oligomers or after activation of synaptic NMDA receptors. Together, our data indicate that NCAM2 binds to APP and promotes APP targeting from the neuronal cell surface to recycling endosomes where APP is cleaved by BACE1.
