sgk , a primary glucocorticoid-induced gene, facilitates memory consolidation of spatial learning in rats

Abstract: By using differential display PCR, we have identified 98 cDNA fragments from the rat dorsal hippocampus that are expressed differentially between the fast learners and slow learners in the water maze learning task. One of these cDNA fragments encodes the rat serum-and glucocorticoid-inducible kinase (sgk) gene. Northern blot analysis revealed that the sgk mRNA level was approximately 4-fold higher in the hippocampus of fast learners than slow learners. In situ hybridization results indicated that sgk mRNA leve… Show more

“…Hippocampal SGK1 expression is induced by water maze training (Tsai et al, 2002) and environmental enrichment (Lee et al, 2003), a procedure known to improve hippocampus-dependent L&M (Duffy et al, 2001;Need and Giese, 2003). Furthermore, SGK1 is required for spatial memory formation in the water maze (Tsai et al, 2002). Similarly, zif268 is required for consolidation of object recognition memory (Jones et al, 2001;Bozon et al, 2003).…”

“…SGK1, for example, has recently been implicated in hippocampus-dependent learning and memory (L&M). Hippocampal SGK1 expression is induced by water maze training (Tsai et al, 2002) and environmental enrichment (Lee et al, 2003), a procedure known to improve hippocampus-dependent L&M (Duffy et al, 2001;Need and Giese, 2003).

“…95 Increased expression of Sgk1 has been observed in the Hippo of fast-learning rats as compared with slow-learning rats. 96 Enrichment-induced Sgk1 expression is specifically mediated through alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) receptors 97 and Sgk1 can directly phosphorylate the transcription factor cyclic AMP response element-binding protein (CREB) on serine 133. 98 Sgk1 expression level is increased by acute amphetamine 36 and lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) treatment, 36 and it is increased in the brain and peripheral tissues following psychosocial stress.…”

“…101 Taken together, the published data and our own data strongly suggest a role for Sgk1 in stress, cell survival, and also learning and memory consolidation and other central functions, like reward and depression. 96,102 Sulfotransferase 1a (Sult1a1) specifically catalyzes the sulfonation of the catecholamines, dopamine, adrenaline and noradrenaline as well as of drugs such as apomorphine. Sult1a1 is involved in drug metabolism, cancer, hormone regulation and neurotransmitter synthesis/metabolism.…”

“…The current evidence points to a role of SGK1 in activity-dependent facilitation of learning and memory formation (16,17), consolidation of long-term memory (18), facilitation of expression of longterm potentiation in hippocampal neurons (19), and modulation of synaptic plasticity in the dorsal horn of the spinal cord (15).…”
