The primary cause of FXS is the loss of fragile X messenger ribonucleoprotein (FMRP), which is profoundly involved in synaptic function and plasticity. Short-term synaptic plasticity (STSP) may play important roles in functions that are affected by FXS. Recent evidence points to the crucial involvement of the presynaptic calcium sensor synaptotagmin-7 (Syt-7) in STSP. However, how the loss of FMRP affects STSP and Syt-7 have been insufficiently studied. Furthermore, males and females are affected differently by FXS, but the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. The aim of the present study was to investigate possible changes in STSP and the expression of Syt-7 in the dorsal (DH) and ventral (VH) hippocampus of adult males and females in a Fmr1-knockout (KO) rat model of FXS. We found that the paired-pulse ratio (PPR) and frequency facilitation\/depression (FF\/D), two forms of STSP, as well as the expression of Syt-7, are normal in adult KO males, but the PPR is increased in the ventral hippocampus of KO females (6.4 \u00b1 3.7 vs. 18.3 \u00b1 4.2 at 25 ms in wild type (WT) and KO, respectively). Furthermore, we found no gender-related differences, but did find robust region-dependent difference in the STSP (e.g., the PPR at 50 ms: 50.0 \u00b1 5.5 vs. 17.6 \u00b1 2.9 in DH and VH of WT male rats; 53.1 \u00b1 3.6 vs. 19.3 \u00b1 4.6 in DH and VH of WT female rats; 48.1 \u00b1 2.3 vs. 19.1 \u00b1 3.3 in DH and VH of KO male rats; and 51.2 \u00b1 3.3 vs. 24.7 \u00b1 4.3 in DH and VH of KO female rats). AMPA receptors are similarly expressed in the two hippocampal segments of the two genotypes and in both genders. Also, basal excitatory synaptic transmission is higher in males compared to females. Interestingly, we found more than a twofold higher level of Syt-7, not synaptotagmin-1, in the dorsal compared to the ventral hippocampus in the males of both genotypes (0.43 \u00b1 0.1 vs. 0.16 \u00b1 0.02 in DH and VH of WT male rats, and 0.6 \u00b1 0.13 vs. 0.23 \u00b1 0.04 in DH and VH of KO male rats) and in the WT females (0.97 \u00b1 0.23 vs. 0.31 \u00b1 0.09 in DH and VH). These results point to the susceptibility of the female ventral hippocampus to FMRP loss. Importantly, the different levels of Syt-7, which parallel the higher score of the dorsal vs. ventral hippocampus on synaptic facilitation, suggest that Syt-7 may play a pivotal role in defining the striking differences in STSP along the long axis of the hippocampus.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijms25136975","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,6,27]],"date-time":"2024-06-27T05:11:39Z","timestamp":1719465099000},"page":"6975","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Region-Related Differences in Short-Term Synaptic Plasticity and Synaptotagmin-7 in the Male and Female Hippocampus of a Rat Model of Fragile X Syndrome"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"25","author":[{"given":"Giota","family":"Tsotsokou","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Lab of Physiology-Neurophysiology, Department of Medicine, University of Patras, 265 04 Patras, Greece"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0409-859X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Athina","family":"Miliou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Lab of Physiology-Neurophysiology, Department of Medicine, University of Patras, 265 04 Patras, Greece"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"George","family":"Trompoukis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Lab of Physiology-Neurophysiology, Department of Medicine, University of Patras, 265 04 Patras, Greece"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Leonidas J.","family":"Leontiadis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Lab of Physiology-Neurophysiology, Department of Medicine, University of Patras, 265 04 Patras, Greece"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7860-9583","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Costas","family":"Papatheodoropoulos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Lab of Physiology-Neurophysiology, Department of Medicine, University of Patras, 265 04 Patras, Greece"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,6,26]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"17065","DOI":"10.1038\/nrdp.2017.65","article-title":"Fragile X syndrome","volume":"3","author":"Hagerman","year":"2017","journal-title":"Nat.
