Gene regulation via conditional nuclear localization of gene modulating polypeptides

The present disclosure provides a system for regulating expression of a target polynucleotide in a cell. The system may comprise a chimeric polypeptide comprising a gene modulating polypeptide fused in-frame with a heterologous nuclear localization domain. The heterologous nuclear localization domain may be operable to translocate the chimeric polypeptide to a cell nucleus upon activation by an active cellular signaling pathway. The cellular signaling pathway may be inducible in response to an extracellular signal. In response to the extracellular signal, the chimeric polypeptide may localizeto the cell nucleus and the gene modulating polypeptide may regulate expression of a target polynucleotide in the cell nucleus.

In vivo gene regulation by the combination of knock-in-teto sequence into the genome and tetracycline-controlled trans-suppressor (TTS) protein

Disclosed is a FAST (Flexible Accelerated STOP TetO-knockin) system, an efficient method for manipulating gene expression in vivo to rapidly screen animal models of disease. This invention further discloses a single gene targeting event yielding 2 distinct knockin mice—STOP-tetO and tetO knockin—which permit generation of multiple strains with variable expression patterns: 1) knockout, 2) Cre-mediated rescue; 3) tTA-mediated misexpression; 4) tTA-mediated overexpression; and 5) tTS-mediated conditional knockout / knockdown. Using the FAST system, multiple gain- and loss-of-function strains can therefore be generated on a timescale not previously achievable. These strains can then be screened for clinically-relevant abnormalities. The flexibility and broad applicability of the FAST system is demonstrated by targeting several genes encoding proteins implicated in neuropsychiatric disorders: Mlc1, Neuroligin 3, the serotonin 1A receptor, and the serotonin 1B receptor.

Method to restore or improve cognitive functions

PendingUS20210379146A1Induce autophagyReverse age-related memory declineNervous disorderPeptide/protein ingredientsPharmacometricsMouse Hippocampus
The present invention relates to the field of memory and cognitive functions. Here the inventors show that memory stimulations induce autophagy in the mouse hippocampus, while local pharmacological and genetic modulations of hippocampal autophagy strongly influence memory acquisition. More, the inventors observe that hippocampal autophagy declines during aging and they find that restoring autophagy specifically in the hippocampus of aged mice, following autophagy inducers (such as TAT-Beclin-1), can significantly reverse age-related memory decline. Their results reveal a novel physiological role of autophagy in regulating hippocampal-dependent memory functions, and demonstrate the potential therapeutic benefits of modulating autophagy in order to prevent and / or reverse the deleterious effects of aging on cognitive function. The present invention relates to an activator of the autophagy for use in the restoration and / or improvement of cognitive functions in a subject in need thereof.
