Resum

Coordinated neuron-astrocyte interactions are crucial for synaptic plasticity and brain function. Cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) pathways have a key role in modulating plasticity and are disrupted in neurodegenerative diseases. Yet, the role of astrocytic cAMP remains unclear. We addressed this by expressing the photoactivatable adenylyl cyclase DdPAC in cortical astrocytes, enabling cAMP synthesis under red light stimulation. Using electrophysiological and comprehensive proteomic analyses, we determined its effects in wild-type mice. The modulation of astrocytic cAMP triggered long-term synaptic potentiation and rapidly induced the phosphorylation of proteins involved in synaptic transmission, including PKA. In Huntington's Disease (HD) models, DdPAC activation in cortical astrocytes differentially enhanced brain hemodynamics and induced motor learning, while specifically increasing grooming and impairing coordination in HD mice. Thus, we reveal a mechanism of astrocyte-driven plasticity mediated by cAMP elevation and underscore the alterations in astrocytic cAMP signaling associated with HD.
