Identification of adrenergic presynaptic and postsynaptic protein locations at neuromuscular junctions, their decrease during aging, and recovery by nicotinamide mononucleotide administration.
Neuromuscular junctions are innervated by motor and sympathetic nerves. The sympathetic modulation of motor innervation shows functional decline during aging, but the cellular and molecular mechanism of this change is not fully known. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of aging on sympathetic nerves and synaptic proteins at mouse neuromuscular junctions. Sympathetic nerves, presynaptic, and postsynaptic proteins of sympathetic nerves at neuromuscular junctions were visualized using immunohistochemistry, and aging-related changes were compared between adult-, aged-, and nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) administered aged mice. Sympathetic nerves were detected by anti-tyrosine hydroxylase antibody, and presynaptic protein vesicular monoamine transporter 2 colocalized with the sympathetic nerves. These two signals surrounded motor nerve terminals and acetylcholine receptor clusters. Postsynaptic neurotransmitter receptor β2-adrenergic receptors colocalized with motor nerve terminals and resided in reduced density at extrasynaptic sarcolemma. The signal intensity of the sympathetic nerve marker did not show a significant difference at neuromuscular junctions between 8.5-month-old adult mice and 25-month-old aged mice. However, the signal intensity of vesicular monoamine transporter 2 and β2-adrenergic receptors showed age-related decline at neuromuscular junctions. Interestingly, both age-related declines reverted to the adult level after 1 month of oral administration of NMN by drinking water. In contrast, NMN administration did not alter the expression level of sympathetic marker tyrosine hydroxylase at neuromuscular junctions. The results suggest a functional decline of sympathetic nerves at aged neuromuscular junctions due to decreases in presynaptic and postsynaptic proteins, which can be reverted to the adult level by NMN administration.
期刊介绍:
NeuroReport is a channel for rapid communication of new findings in neuroscience. It is a forum for the publication of short but complete reports of important studies that require very fast publication. Papers are accepted on the basis of the novelty of their finding, on their significance for neuroscience and on a clear need for rapid publication. Preliminary communications are not suitable for the Journal. Submitted articles undergo a preliminary review by the editor. Some articles may be returned to authors without further consideration. Those being considered for publication will undergo further assessment and peer-review by the editors and those invited to do so from a reviewer pool.
The core interest of the Journal is on studies that cast light on how the brain (and the whole of the nervous system) works.
We aim to give authors a decision on their submission within 2-5 weeks, and all accepted articles appear in the next issue to press.
