Rosenmund Lab

In the Rosenmund Lab, we study the process of communication between neurons at their point of contact—the synapse. At the synapse, an incoming electrical response triggers the release of a chemical signal, the neurotransmitter, in a process called exocytosis. The neurotransmitter molecules activate an electrical response in the receiving cell and, thus, the signal is propagated. While many of the essential protein players in transmission at a chemical synapse have been defined, many open questions about the details of this process remain.  

Our overarching goal in the Rosenmund Lab is to understand how different proteins, structures or genes determine neurotransmitter release properties. Why does synaptic transmission differ between cell types? How do proteins work together to assure the speed and efficiency of synaptic exocytosis? We use diverse approaches to reveal the molecular mechanisms underlying synaptic processes

Research Focus

Neurons in the brain transmit information to each other through specialized connections called synapses. This process is initiated when the action potential invades the presynaptic terminal, which in turn causes the fusion of transmitter-filled vesicles with the presynaptic membrane releasing its content. Then transmitters can diffuse through the synaptic cleft and activate postsynaptic receptors thereby altering the postsynaptic membrane potential. This process is highly complex yet occurs with amazing speed and astonishing precision millions of times at every second within our brain. Moreover, functional properties of synapses within the brain can vary dramatically and can undergo rapid and lasting changes, and this in turn affect how information in the brain are encoded, and even how we learn and forget, how we think and feel, how we sense our environment and act. In our lab we study the basic principles of synaptic transmission with a major focus on the process of neurotransmitter release. In particular, we examine the molecular mechanisms underlying this process in central synapses. Within the presynaptic terminal, release of neurotransmitter-filled vesicles is restricted to active zones. In a series of functional highly coordinated and regulated steps synaptic vesicles are filled with neurotransmitter, tether to specific release sites at the active zone, prime to reach fusion competence, and finally fuse in a calcium-triggered event with the plasma membrane to release the neurotransmitter into the synaptic cleft. This chemical signal is than recognized and transduced into an electrical signal by activation of specific receptors at the postsynaptic site. Elucidation of the mechanisms of synaptic transmission and its regulation is central to the understanding of brain function and dysfunction. Our goal is to quantify and kinetically resolve individual steps within this vesicle cycle. We want to understand which presynaptic proteins; protein-domains and individual residues mediate these steps. Furthermore, we want to identify molecules and mechanisms contributing to heterogeneity in synaptic function. Finally, we want to know how changes of synaptic function such as release probability or short-term plasticity affects the behavior of neurons within defined neuronal networks.

Research

Methods

To understand the complexity of synaptic transmission and neurotransmitter release an integrative approach including biochemistry, genetics, structural and functional analysis is required. We functionally characterize synaptic properties of genetic modified mice or human induced neurons that bear deletions of- or carry mutations within presynaptic proteins. By using cultured primary neurons and slices as well as human induced neurons derived from induced pluripotent stem cells we are able to apply the following methods: We use electrical and optical recording techniques, such as standard patch-clamp electrophysiology and Calcium-imaging, to study synapses in their function and plasticity. We further use light and electron microscopy to study the structure of synapses and how these structures change during plastic events and under pathophysiological conditions.
These techniques are also powerful tools in studying the mechanisms that underly diseases such as epilepsy, autism, schizophrenia and many other neurological disorders. Dramatic advances in the field of human and molecular genetics have shown that these diseases are in part synaptopathic, as these diseases are often associated with mutation in synaptic proteins.

Protein structure-function

Thanks to pioneering work in the late 20th century, we know the identities of most proteins involved in neurotransmitter release. However, many details about the structure of these proteins, their interaction partners, and the amino acids essential for their functions are not yet elucidated. In the Rosenmund Lab, we investigate the detailed interactions and mechanisms by which synaptic proteins control neurotransmitter release.
Our approach to investigate the function of synaptic proteins is to perform ‘rescue’ experiments with mutant proteins in neurons where the protein-of-interest has been eliminated. We then assay the effects on neurotransmitter release by assaying the electrophysiological responses of cultured neurons. Our ability to carefully quantify the neurotransmitter release characteristics under different conditions is attributable to our favorite specialized culture system—the autapse.

Transcriptional programs

What are the transcriptional programs that determine synaptic output? How are developmental gene programs influenced by activity? Recent advances in the field of molecular biology allow us to address these questions using RNA sequencing technology. In the Rosenmund Lab, we use a variety of RNA sequencing approaches to investigate the relationship between transcription and synaptic properties.

Functional anatomy

From Katz’s Quantal Hypothesis to Heusser & Reese’s pictures of membrane bound vesicles, much of our knowledge about synaptic transmission has been gained through analysis of the electrical signals and static images of ultrastructure. In the Rosenmund Lab, we try to close the gap between these two techniques, by performing functional anatomy experiments on mammalian central synapses.
We use a cutting edge high-pressure freezing cryo-fixation technique paired with stimulation to investigate the ultrastructure of synapses a specific intervals after neurotransmitter release occurred. Visualizing these processes with electron microscopy has led to a number of exciting discoveries.

Human neuroscience

Ultimately, a major goal in neuroscience research is to understand the human brain, in health and disease. While model systems play an invaluable role in this endeavor, new research has revealed that human neurons have physiological properties that diverge from those of model systems. Differences in function between human neurons and other model organisms is particularly important in modeling disease mechanisms. In the Rosenmund Lab, we investigate aspects of human neurophysiology using human induced pluripotent stem cell (hIPSC) and patient tissue.
