Receptors transducing Nogo-A-Δ20 signaling remained elusive so far. Here we identify the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor 2 (S1PR2) as a Nogo-A-Δ20-specific receptor. Nogo-A-Δ20 binds S1PR2 on sites distinct from the pocket of the sphingolipid sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) and signals via the G protein G<sub>13</sub>, the Rho GEF LARG, and RhoA. Deleting or blocking S1PR2 counteracts Nogo-A-Δ20- and myelin-mediated inhibition of neurite outgrowth and cell spreading. Blockade of S1PR2 strongly enhances long-term potentiation (LTP) in the hippocampus of wild-type but not Nogo-A<sup>−/−</sup> mice, indicating a repressor function of the Nogo-A/S1PR2 axis in synaptic plasticity. A similar increase in LTP was also observed in the motor cortex after S1PR2 blockade. We propose a novel signaling model in which a GPCR functions as a receptor for two structurally unrelated ligands, a membrane protein and a sphingolipid. Elucidating Nogo-A/S1PR2 signaling platforms will provide new insights into regulation of synaptic plasticity.</p> </div></div><div xmlns:plos="http://plos.org" class="abstract toc-section abstract-type-summary"><a id="abstract2" name="abstract2" data-toc="abstract2" class="link-target" title="Author Summary"></a> <h2>Author Summary</h2> <div class="abstract-content"><a id="article1.front1.article-meta1.abstract3.p1" name="article1.front1.article-meta1.abstract3.p1" class="link-target"></a><p>Recent studies have demonstrated an important role of Nogo-A signaling in the repression of structural and synaptic plasticity in mature neuronal networks of the central nervous system. These insights extended our understanding of Nogo-A's inhibitory function far beyond its well-studied role as axonal-growth inhibitor. Repression is mediated via two different Nogo-A extracellular domains: Nogo-66 and Nogo-A-Δ20. Here, we identify the G-protein coupled receptor S1PR2 as a high-affinity receptor for Nogo-A-Δ20 and demonstrate that S1PR2 binds this domain with sites different from the recently proposed S1P binding pocket. Interfering with S1PR2 activity, either pharmacologically or genetically, prevented Nogo-A-Δ20-mediated inhibitory effects. Similar results were obtained when we blocked G<sub>13</sub>, LARG, and RhoA, components of the downstream signaling pathway. These findings revealed a strong increase in hippocampal and cortical synaptic plasticity when acutely interfering with Nogo-A/S1PR2 signaling, similar to previous results obtained by blocking Nogo-A. We thus provide a novel biological concept of multi-ligand GPCR signaling in which this sphingolipid-activated GPCR is also bound and activated by the high molecular weight membrane protein Nogo-A.</p> </div></div> <div xmlns:plos="http://plos.org" class="articleinfo"><p><strong>Citation: </strong>Kempf A, Tews B, Arzt ME, Weinmann O, Obermair FJ, Pernet V, et al.

They play important roles in stabilizing the complex wiring of the adult CNS of higher vertebrates and in establishing neuronal pathways in the developing nervous system <a href="#pbio.1001763-Akbik1" class="ref-tip">[1]</a>,<a href="#pbio.1001763-Schwab1" class="ref-tip">[2]</a>. One of the best-studied factors is the membrane protein Nogo-A, which occurs in myelin and certain neurons, inhibiting axonal regeneration and plasticity after CNS injury <a href="#pbio.1001763-Filbin1" class="ref-tip">[3]</a>–<a href="#pbio.1001763-Yiu1" class="ref-tip">[5]</a>. Neutralization of Nogo-A has been shown to enhance axonal growth and compensatory sprouting in the adult spinal cord and brain, as well as to improve functional recovery after CNS injury <a href="#pbio.1001763-Schwab2" class="ref-tip">[4]</a>,<a href="#pbio.1001763-Kempf1" class="ref-tip">[6]</a>.

Nogo-66 induces growth inhibition via two membrane proteins, Nogo-66 receptor 1 (NgR1) <a href="#pbio.1001763-Fournier1" class="ref-tip">[13]</a>, together with accessory proteins, and paired immunoglobulin-like receptor B (PirB) <a href="#pbio.1001763-Atwal1" class="ref-tip">[14]</a>. By contrast, the molecular identification and characterization of the receptor(s) transducing signals from the inhibitory Nogo-A-Δ20 domain has failed so far <a href="#pbio.1001763-Schwab1" class="ref-tip">[2]</a>. Nogo-A-Δ20 has been shown to partially mediate its inhibitory activity by interfering with integrins, but proof of a direct interaction has remained elusive <a href="#pbio.1001763-Hu1" class="ref-tip">[15]</a>.

In the brain and spinal cord, S1P has been shown to regulate angiogenesis and neurite outgrowth: activation of S1PR1 promotes neurite outgrowth <em>in vitro</em> via G<sub>i/o</sub> and Rac1, whereas activation of S1PR2 leads to neurite retraction, involving G<sub>i/o</sub>, G<sub>q</sub>, or G<sub>12/13</sub> and the RhoA pathway <a href="#pbio.1001763-Spiegel1" class="ref-tip">[16]</a>–<a href="#pbio.1001763-Toman1" class="ref-tip">[18]</a>.</p> <a id="article1.body1.sec1.p4" name="article1.body1.sec1.p4" class="link-target"></a><p>In this study we demonstrate that Nogo-A-Δ20 binds S1PR2 <em>via</em> extracellular receptor loops 2 and 3, which are distinct from the previously described binding site of S1P <a href="#pbio.1001763-Hanson1" class="ref-tip">[19]</a>. Nogo-A-Δ20 signals through the G protein G<sub>13</sub>, leukemia-associated Rho guanine exchange factor (RhoGEF) LARG and RhoA. Deleting or blocking S1PR2 counteracts Nogo-A-Δ20- and myelin-mediated inhibition of neurite outgrowth and cell spreading. Acute S1PR2 blockade increases hippocampal and cortical long-term synaptic plasticity similarly to Nogo-A neutralization.

In the adult CNS, S1PR2 is mainly expressed in the grey matter (<a href="#pbio-1001763-g001">Figure 1</a>). Hippocampal pyramidal cells, cerebellar Purkinje cells, cortical neurons and spinal motoneurons, as well as retinal ganglion cells are S1PR2-positive (<a href="#pbio-1001763-g001">Figure 1A–1K</a>). Importantly, S1PR2 is also expressed in Nogo-A-Δ20-responsive cells <em>in vitro</em> including 3T3 fibroblasts and immature cerebellar granule neurons (<a href="#pbio.1001763.s001">Figure S1</a>). To validate the interaction of Nogo-A-Δ20 (<a href="#pbio-1001763-g002">Figure 2A</a>) and S1PR2, His-tagged Nogo-A-Δ20 was co-incubated with membranes of S1PR2-overexpressing cells and subsequently immunoprecipitated (<a href="#pbio-1001763-g002">Figure 2C</a>). S1PR2 was specifically detected in immunoprecipitation fractions (<a href="#pbio-1001763-g002">Figure 2C</a>). Vice versa, His-tagged Nogo-A-Δ20 could be specifically probed in S1PR2 immunoprecipitated fractions, suggesting that the two proteins interact <em>in vitro</em> (<a href="#pbio-1001763-g002">Figure 2D</a>). Co-immunoprecipitation experiments of Nogo-A or S1PR2 from whole mouse brain protein extracts further demonstrated that endogenous S1PR2 interacts with Nogo-A under physiological conditions <em>in vivo</em> (<a href="#pbio-1001763-g002">Figure 2B</a>). To determine the binding affinity, binding of the entire Δ20-containing extracellular N-terminal domain of Nogo-A (Nogo-A-ext; <a href="#pbio-1001763-g002">Figure 2A</a>) to biosensor-immobilized membrane preparations expressing functional full length S1PR2 protein or non S1PR2-expressing control membranes was monitored in real-time using Bio-Layer interferometry (OctetRED). Non-linear fitting revealed that Nogo-A-ext binds to S1PR2 with an apparent equilibrium binding constant (<em>K</em><sub>D</sub>) of ∼142 nM (<a href="#pbio-1001763-g002">Figure 2E</a>). The binding affinity was not influenced by the addition of S1P versus vehicle control (MeOH) (<em>K</em><sub>D</sub> <sub>MeOH</sub>∼192 nM; <em>K</em><sub>D</sub> <sub>S1P</sub>∼202 nM; <a href="#pbio-1001763-g002">Figure 2F</a>). For a mapping of binding sites, individual extracellular domains (N-terminus and extracellular loops [ECLs]) of S1PR2 were synthesized as peptides and analyzed for binding to Nogo-A-Δ20 by microscale thermophoresis (<a href="#pbio-1001763-g002">Figure 2G</a>). Nogo-A-Δ20 was found to bind primarily to ECL2 (<em>K</em><sub>D</sub>∼280 nM) and 3 (<em>K</em><sub>D</sub>∼350 nM), less strongly to ECL1 (<em>K</em><sub>D</sub>∼2 µM) and negligibly to the N-terminus of S1PR2 (<em>K</em><sub>D</sub>∼11 µM) (<a href="#pbio-1001763-g002">Figure 2G</a>). Importantly, binding analysis of the other bioactive domain of Nogo-A, Nogo-66, to S1PR2 extracellular domains revealed only unspecific binding in the high micromolar range (<em>K</em><sub>D ECL1</sub>∼46 µM; <em>K</em><sub>D ECL2</sub>∼7 µM; <em>K</em><sub>D ECL3</sub>∼67 µM) or complete absence of binding (N-terminus) (<a href="#pbio-1001763-g002">Figure 2H</a>).

To investigate whether S1PR2 is co-internalized upon Nogo-A-Δ20 treatment, cell surface S1PR2 expression was analyzed by immunofluorescence using a custom-made antibody (<a href="#pbio-1001763-g003">Figures 3A</a>, <a href="#pbio.1001763.s002">S2B</a>, and S2C). Cell surface S1PR2 levels were reduced by ∼64% (<em>p<</em>0.001) 30 min after addition of Nogo-A-Δ20 (<a href="#pbio-1001763-g003">Figure 3B</a>). To confirm this, plasma membranes of 3T3 cells were prepared 15 and 30 min post-incubation with Nogo-A-Δ20 and analyzed for S1PR2 levels by immunoblotting (<a href="#pbio-1001763-g003">Figures 3C</a> and <a href="#pbio.1001763.s002">S2A</a>). We found that cell surface S1PR2 levels were reduced by ∼77% (<em>p<</em>0.01) and ∼70% (<em>p<</em>0.001) after 15 and 30 min incubation with Nogo-A-Δ20, respectively, indicating that S1PR2 is internalized upon binding to Nogo-A-Δ20 (<a href="#pbio-1001763-g003">Figure 3C</a>). Pulse-chase experiments revealed that the majority of internalized Nogo-A-Δ20 puncta colocalize with S1PR2 as well as with the endosomal marker EEA1 at 15 and 30 min post-incubation with Nogo-A-Δ20 (<a href="#pbio-1001763-g003">Figure 3D</a>). Ubiquitination of GPCRs is a critical post-translational modification, which is often dispensable for initial receptor endocytosis but important for endosomal trafficking to proteasome/lysosomal degradation pathways <a href="#pbio.1001763-Hanyaloglu1" class="ref-tip">[23]</a>,<a href="#pbio.1001763-Verzijl1" class="ref-tip">[24]</a>. S1P has been shown to cause S1PR1 monoubiquitination and, in higher concentrations, polyubiquitination, resulting in subsequent GPCR recycling to the membrane or complete degradation, respectively <a href="#pbio.1001763-Oo1" class="ref-tip">[25]</a>. S1PR2-ubiquitin conjugates were not detected upon internalization of Nogo-A-Δ20 as opposed to S1P (<a href="#pbio-1001763-g003">Figure 3E</a>), indicating that Nogo-A-Δ20 signaling is not permanently terminated in the lysosomal degradation pathway <a href="#pbio.1001763-Hanyaloglu1" class="ref-tip">[23]</a>–<a href="#pbio.1001763-Oo1" class="ref-tip">[25]</a>.

Treatment of 3T3 cells with JTE-013 significantly counteracted Nogo-A-Δ20-mediated cell spreading inhibition, resulting in an ∼24% increase of spread cells when compared to vehicle (DMSO) (<em>p<</em>0.05) (<a href="#pbio-1001763-g004">Figure 4A and 4B</a>).

For this purpose, extracellular S1P was scavenged using the monoclonal anti-S1P antibody Sphingomab <a href="#pbio.1001763-Ponnusamy1" class="ref-tip">[38]</a>. Cell spreading analysis revealed that Nogo-A-Δ20-induced inhibition was alleviated by ∼28% (<em>p<</em>0.05) in the presence of the anti-S1P antibody when compared to the anti-BrdU control (<a href="#pbio-1001763-g005">Figure 5J</a>). To exclude that disinhibition of Nogo-A-Δ20 signaling by blocking or silencing S1PR2 is mediated by an increased activation of Rac1-coupled S1PR1 through serum-derived S1P, anti-S1P was applied together with JTE-013. No differences could be observed between anti-S1P- and anti-BrdU-treated cells in the presence of JTE-013 (<a href="#pbio-1001763-g005">Figure 5J</a>). Together, these results suggest that S1PR2-mediated inhibition by Nogo-A-Δ20 occurs independently of S1P but that S1P can modulate Nogo-A-Δ20-mediated effects. Indeed, addition of S1P to cells resulted in an ∼31% (<em>p<</em>0.001) and ∼28% (<em>p</em><0.001) decrease in cell spreading inhibition on a control and Nogo-A-Δ20 substrate, respectively, when compared to the MeOH + DMSO control (<a href="#pbio-1001763-g005">Figure 5K</a>). These results point to a modulatory function of S1P in Nogo-A-Δ20-mediated inhibition of cell spreading, presumably by independently activating RhoA-coupled cell surface S1PRs, e.g., S1PR2. Concordantly, S1P has been previously described to modulate cell adhesion and growth of different cell types <a href="#pbio.1001763-Toman1" class="ref-tip">[18]</a>,<a href="#pbio.1001763-Strochlic1" class="ref-tip">[27]</a>,<a href="#pbio.1001763-Lebman1" class="ref-tip">[39]</a>.

To our knowledge, Nogo-A is the first mammalian membrane protein shown to bind to and signal through a non-orphan GPCR of the rhodopsin-like family. In contrast to adhesion GPCRs, S1PR2 does not bind Nogo-A-Δ20 via its N-terminal domain.</p> <a id="article1.body1.sec3.sec1.p2" name="article1.body1.sec3.sec1.p2" class="link-target"></a><p>The recent characterization of the crystal structure of S1PR1 provided substantial structural information on its activation by S1P <a href="#pbio.1001763-Hanson1" class="ref-tip">[19]</a>. Access of the ligand to the binding pocket from the extracellular space is occluded by the N-terminus and the ECLs, and may be gained from within the membrane <a href="#pbio.1001763-Hanson1" class="ref-tip">[19]</a>. Our data provide strong evidence that Nogo-A-Δ20 primarily interacts with ECL2 and ECL3 of S1PR2, suggesting a different mechanism of activation compared to S1P. Our results also suggest that S1PR2-mediated inhibition by Nogo-A-Δ20 does not require S1P but can be exogenously modulated by the latter. Although binding of Nogo-A-Δ20 to S1PR2 does not require S1P, modulation of receptor-specific physiological outputs by binding of the bioactive lipid to its pocket within the membrane may further expand the signaling repertoire of S1PR2. It may also enable fine-tuned cellular responses depending on the ratio of ligands present under given conditions, as recently suggested for the receptor for advanced glycation endproducts (RAGE) <a href="#pbio.1001763-Sparvero1" class="ref-tip">[44]</a>. Future biochemical and structural studies will be necessary to address this and show how binding is transferred into ligand-specific G-protein-dependent signaling. Detailed investigations will also need to determine whether the presence of additional receptors, i.e. NgR1, affects the binding properties of Nogo-A-Δ20 to S1PR2 as described for other multi-receptor systems, e.g., the viral surface glycoprotein gp120 to CD4 and the GPCR co-receptor CCR5 <a href="#pbio.1001763-Lee2" class="ref-tip">[45]</a>. We could show that Nogo-A interacts with S1PR2 <em>in trans</em>. However, interaction at the surface of the same cell <em>in cis</em> might also be possible, similar to what has been proposed for the Nogo-A–NgR1 interaction in Purkinje cells recently <a href="#pbio.1001763-Petrinovic1" class="ref-tip">[46]</a>. Yet, such mechanisms have not been proven and their existence needs to be investigated in detail.</p> </div> <div id="section2" class="section toc-section"><a id="s3b" name="s3b" class="link-target" title="Multi-ligand/Multi-receptor Cross-Talk"></a> <h3>Multi-ligand/Multi-receptor Cross-Talk</h3> <a id="article1.body1.sec3.sec2.p1" name="article1.body1.sec3.sec2.p1" class="link-target"></a><p>The classic “one ligand–one receptor” paradigm has recently been challenged by an increasing number of multi-ligand/multi-receptor interactions, which could be identified in different biological systems, adding another level of complexity for fine-tuning of cellular responses <a href="#pbio.1001763-BenShlomo1" class="ref-tip">[20]</a>. Examples include neurotrophin receptors, Wnt receptors, and receptors for axonal guidance molecules such as plexins and neuropilins <a href="#pbio.1001763-BenShlomo1" class="ref-tip">[20]</a>. We propose that the Δ20 domain of Nogo-A binds to S1PR2 and the Nogo-66 loop to NgR1 and/or PirB, resulting in the formation of a multi-site/multi-ligand receptor complex. NgR1 and PirB can also interact with ligands other than Nogo-A, thereby increasing the dynamics of signal transduction <a href="#pbio.1001763-Kempf1" class="ref-tip">[6]</a>,<a href="#pbio.1001763-Mironova1" class="ref-tip">[9]</a>. Additional Nogo-A co-receptors and downstream signaling components potentially located within or attached to these multi-receptor complexes might further amplify Nogo-A-mediated inhibitory effects. It was recently demonstrated that canonical GPCR signaling also occurs from endosomes for, e.g., the Wnt receptor Frizzled <a href="#pbio.1001763-Niehrs1" class="ref-tip">[47]</a> and the β2-adrenoceptor <a href="#pbio.1001763-Irannejad1" class="ref-tip">[48]</a>. Along this line, the Nogo-A-Δ20/S1PR2 complex is co-internalized into endosomes, from which signaling may be sustained. Currently, the concerted action and downstream trafficking of all these receptor components is still poorly understood, in particular <em>in vivo</em>. Future studies will need to assess whether all Nogo-A (co-)receptors are found within the same complex or in different membrane microdomains, and how the receptor composition varies between different cell types, developmental stages, and pathophysiological conditions.</p> </div> <div id="section3" class="section toc-section"><a id="s3c" name="s3c" class="link-target" title="Interfering with Nogo-A/S1PR2 Signaling Increases Synaptic Plasticity"></a> <h3>Interfering with Nogo-A/S1PR2 Signaling Increases Synaptic Plasticity</h3> <a id="article1.body1.sec3.sec3.p1" name="article1.body1.sec3.sec3.p1" class="link-target"></a><p>Nogo-A stabilizes neuronal networks by restricting CNS plasticity <a href="#pbio.1001763-Schwab1" class="ref-tip">[2]</a>,<a href="#pbio.1001763-Mironova1" class="ref-tip">[9]</a>. Acute neutralization of Nogo-A or NgR1 in hippocampal slices was shown to induce an increase in LTP at CA3-CA1 synapses <a href="#pbio.1001763-Delekate1" class="ref-tip">[7]</a>. On the other hand, conventional knockouts of Nogo-A, PirB, or NgR1 do not show significant modulations in LTP, presumably due to compensatory mechanisms <a href="#pbio.1001763-Delekate1" class="ref-tip">[7]</a>,<a href="#pbio.1001763-Lee1" class="ref-tip">[8]</a>,<a href="#pbio.1001763-Raiker1" class="ref-tip">[10]</a>,<a href="#pbio.1001763-Tews1" class="ref-tip">[11]</a>,<a href="#pbio.1001763-Karlen1" class="ref-tip">[49]</a>. This is well in line with the lack of LTP modulation observed in S1PR2<sup>−/−</sup> mice. A novel transgenic rat model in which Nogo-A expression was silenced but not completely ablated by using a synthetic anti-Nogo-A microRNA leaving the genomic locus intact showed a significant increase in LTP in the hippocampus as well as in the motor cortex <a href="#pbio.1001763-Tews1" class="ref-tip">[11]</a>. This underlines the strong drive for genetic compensation after complete ablation of components within this functionally very important system. Our present findings revealed an increase in hippocampal and cortical LTP when acutely interfering with S1PR2 signaling by JTE-013. Notably, no JTE-013-mediated increase in hippocampal LTP was observed in Nogo-A<sup>−/−</sup> mice, underlining the plasticity-restricting role of Nogo-A/S1PR2 signaling independently of S1P. Indeed, CA3–CA1 LTP was shown to be independent of SphK/S1P receptor signaling <a href="#pbio.1001763-Kanno1" class="ref-tip">[50]</a>. Interestingly, the blockade of both Nogo-A receptors NgR1 and S1PR2 does not show an additive effect on LTP potentiation, suggesting that both receptor-evoked responses induced by different domains of Nogo-A converge onto the same signaling pathways. However, detailed mechanisms and kinetics by which Nogo-A/S1PR2-NgR1 modify synaptic plasticity remain to be analyzed.</p> </div> <div id="section4" class="section toc-section"><a id="s3d" name="s3d" class="link-target" title="Conclusion"></a> <h3>Conclusion</h3> <a id="article1.body1.sec3.sec4.p1" name="article1.body1.sec3.sec4.p1" class="link-target"></a><p>Our finding that the GPCR S1PR2 binds two structurally unrelated molecules, a low MW sphingolipid and the high MW membrane protein Nogo-A, by distinct sites contributes to and extends the paradigm shift from a classical linear model of GPCR signaling towards a more dynamic model with shared components and intramolecular cross talks <a href="#pbio.1001763-Ghanouni1" class="ref-tip">[51]</a>,<a href="#pbio.1001763-Huber1" class="ref-tip">[52]</a>. It will be important to understand to which extent S1P affects signaling induced by Nogo-A and vice-versa. Detailed high-resolution structural characterization of the receptor in complex with S1P, Nogo-A, or both will be required to unravel the mechanistic properties of these two signaling systems. Furthermore, the cell-specific interplay of S1PR2 with known receptors and co-receptors for Nogo-A needs to be determined in detail with regard to their corresponding physiological effects. This information will be the basis for the design of novel molecular tools to better understand the roles of Nogo-A/S1PR2 signaling for CNS plasticity and repair.</p> </div> </div> <div xmlns:plos="http://plos.org" id="section4" class="section toc-section"><a id="s4" name="s4" data-toc="s4" class="link-target" title="Materials and Methods"></a><h2>Materials and Methods</h2> <div id="section1" class="section toc-section"><a id="s4a" name="s4a" class="link-target" title="Animals"></a> <h3>Animals</h3> <a id="article1.body1.sec4.sec1.p1" name="article1.body1.sec4.sec1.p1" class="link-target"></a><p>All animal experiments were performed with the approval of and in strict accordance with the guidelines of the Zurich Cantonal Veterinary Office.

Each experiment was performed at least three times in four replicate wells. Spreading was quantified manually in a blinded manner and mean neurite length was quantified using the MetaMorph software (Molecular Devices). The mean neurite length is referred to as the mean total length of all neurites per cell. 3T3 cells were classified as spread cells if they bear at least two lammelipodial processes longer than one cell body diameter. Round cells were classified as non-spread. Data were normalized to baseline and plotted as average ± standard error of the mean (SEM). Cells were imaged with a Leica DM5500B microscope equipped with HCX PL FL Dry 10×/0.3 and 20×/0.5 objectives in a semi-automated way. Statistical analysis was performed in GraphPad Prism5 using a one-way ANOVA test followed by a Bonferroni <em>post hoc</em> test or by using an unpaired Student's t-test.

Monopolar tungsten electrodes were used for stimulating the Schaffer collaterals at a frequency of 0.1 Hz. Stimulation was set to elicit a fEPSP with a slope of ∼40%–50% of maximum for LTP recordings. After 20 min baseline stimulation LTP was induced by applying theta-burst stimulation (TBS), in which a burst consisted of four pulses at 100 Hz. These were repeated 10 times in 200 ms intervals (5 Hz). Three such trains were used to induce LTP at 0.1 Hz. Basic synaptic transmission and presynaptic properties were analyzed <em>via</em> I/O measurements and paired pulse facilitation. The I/O measurements were performed either by application of a defined value of current (25–250 µA in steps of 25 µA) or by adjusting the stimulus intensity to a certain current eliciting a fiber volley (FV) of desired voltage. Paired pulse facilitation was performed by applying a pair of two stimuli in different inter-stimulus-intervals (ISIs), ranging from 10, 20, 40, and 80 to 160 ms. Data were collected, stored, and analyzed with LABVIEW software (National Instruments).

JTE-013 concentrations were used according to protocols used for hippocampal slices and added to the ACSF: 126 mM NaCl, 3 mM KCl, 1.25 mM NaH<sub>2</sub>PO<sub>4</sub>, 26 mM NaHCO<sub>3</sub>, 1 mM MgSO<sub>4</sub>, 2 mM CaCl<sub>2</sub>, and 10 mM glucose, bubbled with a 95% O<sub>2</sub>, 5% CO<sub>2</sub> mixture at 33±0.5°C). To allow optimal JTE-013 penetration, responses were recorded from the slice superface of layer II/III within M1. Basic synaptic transmission was analyzed with I/O analysis. I/O measurements were conducted by applying a value of current, which elicited a minimal (threshold) evoked response (0.2–0.3 mV). I/O curves were obtained by averaging field potential peak amplitudes of three responses to stimuli of two, three, four, and five times the threshold response. To elicit the maximum amplitude that could be evoked, we used a stimulation intensity of 25× threshold <a href="#pbio.1001763-RioultPedotti1" class="ref-tip">[64]</a>,<a href="#pbio.1001763-RioultPedotti2" class="ref-tip">[65]</a>. For baseline measurements, stimulus intensity was adjusted to produce responses 40%–50% of the maximum amplitude. For data analysis, we computed the amplitude of the field potential response because it serves as a measure of the population excitatory synaptic response <a href="#pbio.1001763-RioultPedotti2" class="ref-tip">[65]</a>, reflects a monosynaptic current sink <a href="#pbio.1001763-Hess1" class="ref-tip">[66]</a>, and correlates well with the intracellular excitatory postsynaptic response evoked in this pathway <a href="#pbio.1001763-Aroniadou1" class="ref-tip">[67]</a>. Measurement of the field potential slope, as routinely used, e.g., in the hippocampus, has not been used for neocortical field potential responses due to the interference of the response's initial part by variable nonsynaptic components <a href="#pbio.1001763-Hess2" class="ref-tip">[68]</a>. After 20 min of baseline stimulation, focal and transient reduction of y-aminobuturic acid-A (GABA) inhibition at the recording site was produced by applying bicuculline methiodide (3.3 mM, Tocris Bioscience) from a micropipette by touching the tip to the slice surface within 100 µm of the recording microelectrode for 15–60 s. The pipette was removed when the amplitude of test responses increased 50%–100% of baseline <a href="#pbio.1001763-Hess1" class="ref-tip">[66]</a>. Immediately after bicuculline application, LTP was attempted by delivering TBS at double baseline stimulation intensity. LTP induction was attempted by using TBS, which consisted of 10 trains of stimuli at 5 Hz. Each train was composed of four pulses at 100 Hz. This sequence was delivered every 10 s for a total of five presentations. LTP was recorded for at least 20 min after it reached a stable plateau. TBS was induced until responses were saturated. Pathways were considered saturated if the difference between two subsequent states of LTP were not significantly different <a href="#pbio.1001763-Hess2" class="ref-tip">[68]</a>. Maximum LTP was calculated as a percentage of baseline, plotted as average ± SEM and analyzed by a Student's t-test.
