“…For example, divergent changes in vesicular glutamate transporter (VGLUT1) mRNA expression were reported in the hippocampus in schizophrenia. Decreased VLGUT1 mRNA was reported in a middle-aged cohort, whereas no changes in the transcript were found in an elderly cohort (Eastwood and Harrison, 2005;Uezato et al, 2009). The authors of one of the studies attributed this effect to the difference in the ages of the subjects included in the two studies (Eastwood and Harrison, 2005;Uezato et al, 2009).…”

“…Decreased VLGUT1 mRNA was reported in a middle-aged cohort, whereas no changes in the transcript were found in an elderly cohort (Eastwood and Harrison, 2005;Uezato et al, 2009). The authors of one of the studies attributed this effect to the difference in the ages of the subjects included in the two studies (Eastwood and Harrison, 2005;Uezato et al, 2009). These findings, as well as the conclusions of the BrainCloud project, are consistent with reports of gene expression-specific associations with age of death (Eastwood and Harrison, 2005;Huerta et al, 2006;McCullumsmith et al, 2007;.…”

“…We have documented its presence in layer V of the cortex . Others indicate that it is also present in layer II, III, and IV pyramidal neurons (Uezato et al, 2009;McCullumsmith and Meador-Woodruff, 2003;Fremeau et al, 2001;Nakamura et al, 2005).…”

“…This present study is the first to use RNA interference to target the expression of VGLUT1 in a specific brain region in vivo as a novel means of manipulating synaptic glutamate release. Hippocampal expression of VGLUT1 mRNA and protein is decreased in schizophrenia (Eastwood and Harrison, 2005;Sawada et al, 2005;Piyabhan and Reynolds, 2006) and, although striatal deficits have also been reported (Piyabhan and Reynolds, 2006;Nudmamud-Thanoi et al, 2007), cortical changes (which do occur in depression; Gilabert-Juan et al, 2012) are far less robust in schizophrenia (Corti et al, 2007;OniOrisan et al, 2008;Uezato et al, 2009;Eastwood and Harrison, 2010) and appear restricted to specific layers of the prefrontal cortex (Eastwood and Harrison, 2005;Bitanihirwe et al, 2009), whereas the amygdala remains unaffected . The principal finding of the current study is that administration of a VGLUT1-targeting lentiviral shRNA vector into the dorsal hippocampus of Targeting whole-brain VGLUT1 expression using conventional gene knockout strategies results in a 35-41% decrease in transporter levels in heterozygous animals (Tordera et al, 2007;Garcia-Garcia et al, 2009).…”
