Abstract
Fragile X Syndrome is a monogenic disorder that reects a
loss of Fragile X Mental Retardation Protein (FMRP) that
is needed to regulate translation of proteins important to
circuit development and plasticity. A complete loss of
FMRP is the leading monogenic cause of Autism Spectrum
Disorders (ASD). Mossy ber inputs to cerebellar granule
cells exhibit long-term potentiation (LTP) to process sen-
sory information to the cerebellum. Here we nd that LTP
of mossy ber input is lost in FMRP KO mice. To counter
this loss, we reintroduced an FMRP N-terminal fragment
conjugated to a tat peptide (FMRP- N- tat) by tail vein injec-
tion. This action promoted transport of FMRP(1–297)
across the blood–brain barrier to distribute widely across
the brain within 30min and rescued LTP at the mossy ber-
granule cell synapse. These ndings are important in
revealing that tat-conjugated FMRP fragments can be used
as a therapeutic tool to restore synaptic plasticity and
reduce symptoms of Fragile X Syndrome.

48.1 Introduction
Fragile X Syndrome (FXS) results from a CGG repeat
expansion in the 5′-untranslated region (UTR) of the Fmr1
gene that disrupts transcription of Fragile X Mental
Retardation Protein (FMRP). This has widespread consequences given that FMRP is involved in circuit development
and functions that span from protein translation to synaptic
output (Bear etal. 2004; Darnell etal. 2011; Contractor etal.
2015). FMRP is almost ubiquitously expressed in cells of the
brain, such that disorders in FXS arise from across the
cortico- cerebellar axis (Zangenehpour et al. 2009; Wang
etal. 2014; Gholizadeh etal. 2015; Hampson and Blatt 2015;
Stoodley etal. 2017), leading to its recognition as the leading
monogenic cause of Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD).
Circuit dysfunction in ASD can reect an aberrant processing of sensory information and synaptic plasticity. The cerebellum receives mossy ber projections that convey sensory
information to a granule cell layer across 10 lobules to form
one of the largest arrays of sensory input in the CNS. The
mossy ber-granule cell synapse normally exhibits long-term
potentiation (LTP), an activity-dependent enhancement in
synaptic transmission (D’Angelo et al. 2005; Rizwan et al.
2016; Sgritta etal. 2017) that we found is lost in FMRP knock-
out (KO) mice (Zhan etal. 2020). This is important in that a
loss of FMRP could disrupt sensory processing at the rst
stage of information transfer to the cerebellar cortex.
The current study explored the potential to reverse the loss of
mossy ber LTP in FMRP KO mice by reintroducing an
N-terminal fragment of FMRP as a conjugate of the HIV-1
trans-activator of transcription (tat) (FMRP-N-tat) to facilitate
its transfer across the blood–brain barrier. These studies were
critical in revealing that FMRP-N-tat introduced by tail vein
injection rapidly distributed throughout the brain and rescued
mossy ber LTP within 2h of injection. This result suggests that
FMRP-N-tat could be a novel potential therapeutic approach to
treating cerebellar and other disorders inherent to FXS.

conjugated peptide in the FMRP KO mouse. We used an
11 aa segment of the HIV-1 trans-activator of transcription protein (tat) that facilitates protein transfer across
cell membranes (Leibrand et al. 2017) fused to an
N-terminal fragment (1–297 aa) of FMRP (Fig. 48.2a).

FMRP has been shown to inuence long-term plasticity at
several synaptic inputs (Telias 2019) and can regulate the
expression of Kv4 channels that are involved in LTP at the
mossy ber synapse (Rizwan etal. 2016). To determine the
potential for FMRP to affect mossy ber LTP, we compared
cells within 2 h of injecting 0.2 mg/kg FMRP-N-tat (c). Neocortical
neurons in Layer 5 exhibit immunolabel within 30min, with cell structures identied using a MAP-2 counter label (d). Hippocampal CA3
pyramidal cells retain immunolabel 12h post injection, with cytoplasmic uptake evident in the magnied right panel. Dashed lines in (c)

All other frames are modied from Zhan etal. (2020)
this form of plasticity between WT and FMRP KO mice in
physiological studies of synaptic function in vitro using a
cerebellar slice preparation. High-frequency stimulation
using a theta burst (TBS) pattern delivered to mossy bers in
lobule 9 of cerebellum evoked LTP of the excitatory
postsynaptic potential (EPSP) amplitude and an increase in
spike ring probability in granule cells (Fig.48.3b). However,
FMRP KO mice completely lacked the ability to demonstrate LTP of the EPSP or spike output (Fig.48.3b) (Zhan
etal. 2020). We therefore tail vein injected 1.0mg/kg FMRP-
N- tat and 2 h later prepared cerebellar tissue slices to con-
duct whole-cell recordings in vitro. This step proved to
rescue mossy ber LTP that persisted for at least 20min after
the TBS stimulus (Fig. 48.3b). These effects were dosedependent in that injecting 0.2mg/kg FMRP-N-tat did not
rescue mossy ber LTP, even though FMRP immunolabel
was detectable in cerebellum 2 h after tail vein injection.
Finally, tail vein injection of the tat epitope alone did not
rescue LTP tested in vitro, indicating that the effects of
FMRP-N-tat on synaptic plasticity did not result from the tat
moiety.

48.3 Discussion
48.3.1 Restoring FMRP inFragile X Syndrome
A great deal of work has been conducted to understand how
translation of FMRP is disrupted and the myriad of cellular
and behavioral disorders it gives rise to in FXS. Several
attempts have been made to restore FMRP translation or
mitigate the loss of circuit function through pharmacological
approaches (Gholizadeh et al. 2014; Park et al. 2015; Liu
etal. 2018; Protic etal. 2019; Telias 2019; Graef etal. 2019).
A previous attempt at using a tat-conjugate approach used
the full-length FMRP.Unfortunately, a protein of this length
led to problems in preparation, blood–brain barrier access,
and toxicity in cultured broblasts (Reis et al. 2004). We
used a 1–297 aa N-terminal fragment of FMRP, which
proved to cross the blood–brain barrier and distribute across
the cortico-cerebellar axis within 30min. The effects of this
compound on cell function were very fast, with rescue of
mossy ber LTP when tested at 2h post injection. The shorttime course was even more dramatic invitro, where internal
infusion of FMRP(1–297) through an electrode rescued LTP
in the FMRP KO mouse within 10 min. Remarkably, direct
application of FMRP-N-tat onto dissociated cerebellar granule cells at levels far higher than we expect it to reach following transport across the blood–brain barrier showed no
toxicity tested with a live-dead cell kit up to 5days later. The
levels of three different proteins known to be disrupted in
FXS were also stabilized by FMRP-N-tat injection for at

least 24 h after tail vein injection (Zhan et al. 2020). All
together these ndings emphasize the potential value of
FMRP-tat conjugate peptides as a therapeutic strategy that
could be developed to reduce the symptoms of FXS.
48.3.2 Role ofFMRP inSynaptic Plasticity
Recent work has shown that the actions of FMRP extend
beyond control of protein translation as an RNA-binding
molecule to modifying ion channels that control membrane
excitability (Contractor etal. 2015; Ferron 2016; Yang etal.
2018; Ferron etal. 2020; Zhan etal. 2020). Indeed, FMRP
proves to be an integral component of a Cav3-Kv4 channel
complex that can modify biophysical properties of Kv4 current inherent to invoking LTP at the mossy ber-granule cell
synapse (Zhan etal. 2020). The number of other forms of
plasticity that rely on FMRP regulation of ion channels that
could benet from FMRP-N-tat is not yet known. For
instance, we have not determined the inuence of FMRP-Ntat on long-term depression at the mossy ber synapse
(Sgritta etal. 2017), or other forms of plasticity inherent to
parallel bers in the cerebellar cortex, the output axons of
granule cells (Koekkoek et al. 2005; Jorntell and Hansel
2006; Piochon etal. 2014). However, a loss of FMRP has
been shown to invoke excess GABA release from cerebellar
basket cells when a downregulation of Kv1.2 channels
increases presynaptic terminal excitability (Yang etal. 2018).
By infusing FMRP(1–297) through a patch recording elec-

317
trode, these authors were able to rebalance excitability and
GABA release from these interneurons, identifying a second
potential target for FMRP-N-tat injections.
Given the growing list of functions for FMRP in regulating synaptic function, plasticity, and now ion channel activities, we expect delivery of FMRP-N-tat to have widespread
effects on circuit function and signal processing. Yet much
work remains to evaluate this novel potential therapeutic
approach to treating cerebellar and other disorders expressed
in patients with FXS.

Abstract
Data from histological tracing studies in non-human pri-
mate strongly support the view that the cerebellar system
is organized into distinct, motor and non-motor, and par-
allel closed-loop circuits interconnecting the cerebellum
and the cerebral cortex. Functional imaging data in human
seem to conrm this specic network organization in
human, and to extend the role of the cerebellum from
motor control to regulation of cognition and emotion.

49.1 Histological Tracing inAnimal Models
In the cerebellar system, cerebral cortex projects via pontine
nuclei within the basis pontis to contralateral cerebellum
(deep nuclei and cortex), which, in turn, sends it back projections via the thalamus. The closed-loop architecture of the
cerebellar system relies on three main results. First, separate
and non-overlapping territories of the dentate nuclei (DN),
the main output source of the primate cerebellum, specically target distinct thalamic and associated motor, premotor
and associative cortical areas (Strick etal. 2009). In particular, cerebellar projections to prefrontal and pre- supplementary
motor cortices originate in the ventral part of DN, whereas
cerebellar projections to (pre-)motor cortex arise from the
dorsal part of DN (Middleton and Strick 2001). Second, viral
transneuronal tracing investigations in the macaque have
demonstrated two closed-loops interconnecting via the den-

tate nucleus, motor cortex and lobules III–VI/VIII, and prefrontal cortex (BA 46) and lobule VII (crus II) (Kelly and
Strick 2003). Third, except primary visual cortex and some
ventrolateral prefrontal and orbitofrontal cortices, the rest of
the cerebral cortex innervates the cerebellum via pontine
nuclei (Schmahmann and Pandya 1997). Therefore, the cerebellum would take part in several closed-loops whose
cortico- ponto-cerebellar afferents remain to be rmly established, for major part of them, but whose efferents are successively (Clower etal. 2001; Middleton and Strick 2001;
Dum and Strick 2003):
1. Dorsal DN, caudal ventrolateral thalamus, motor cortex
(BA 4).
2. Lateral DN, X thalamus, lateral, and medial premotor
cortex (BA 6, supplementary motor area).
3. Caudal DN, X thalamus, prefrontal eye eld cortex (BA
8).
4. Ventromedial DN, caudal ventrolateral and mediodorsal
thalamus, dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (BA 9 medial and
lateral).
5. Ventrolateral DN, caudal ventrolateral and mediodorsal
thalamus, dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (BA 46 dorsal).
6. Lateral DN, caudal ventrolateral thalamus, inferior parietal cortex (BA 7b).
In addition to cerebello-cortical loops, cerebellosubcortical loops may exist as well, especially through reticular, red, and bulbar olivary nuclei. Recently, potential motor
and associative striato-cerebellar loops have been also traced:
DN projects to the external pallidum via intralaminar and
anterior/lateral ventral thalamus in rat (Hoshi etal. 2005) and
striatum in monkey, while subthalamic nucleus projects
topographically back to cerebellar cortex (crus II and lobule
VIIb) via pontine nuclei in monkey (Bostan etal. 2010).

49.2 Functional Neuroimaging Data
Has this closed-loop organization of the cerebellar system
been observed in human? Up to now, only partial arguments
can be put forth in favor of such network architecture since
no histological tracing data are available. Resting state functional connectivity and diffusion tensor imaging have provided some in vivo results in support of cerebellar
closed-loops.
49.2.1 Cerebellar Subregional Connectivity
Cerebellar cortex can be parcellated into separate and nonor very narrow overlapping regions encompassing mainly
sensorimotor (anterior lobe and lobule VIII), executive
(lobules VI caudal, VII with crus I and II and IX), and limbic (lobule VI/VII especially the vermis) (Habas et al.
2009; Krienen and Buckner 2009; O’Reilly et al. 2009;
Buckner etal. 2011). It is noteworthy however that the oculomotor cerebellum must overlap part of the executive/limbic
cerebellum (Voogd etal. 2012). These regions are in functional coherence with specic zones of the cerebral cortex
which may represent cortico-ponto-cerebellar connections.
For instance, motor and premotor cortex are linked to the
sensorimotor cerebellum, and prefrontal, cingulate, temporal, and parietal cortices to the executive cerebellum.
Moreover, functional connectivity of DN that may reect
cerebellar outputs, implicates prefrontal, temporal, cingulate and parietal cortices and thalamus and striatum (Allen
etal. 2005; Bernard etal. 2014), in accordance with tractographic data (Habas and Cabanis 2007; Jissendi etal. 2008;
Salmi etal. 2010; Pelzer etal. 2013; Palesi etal. 2015) and
partly reciprocating cortical inputs. It is also noteworthy
that DN also sends direct efferents to the ventral tegmental
area in mouse (Carta etal. 2019) and that reward-related
activity has been detected in granule cells and climbing
bers within the cerebellum (Wagner and Luo 2020).
Functional coherence has also been demonstrated between
cerebellum and: accumbens nucleus, substantia nigra, and
amygdala. Therefore, there also exists direct subcortical
cerebello-striatal loops allowing combination of rewardbased (ventral striatum) and error-based (cerebellum)
learning process.
49.2.2 Cerebellar Circuits
Independent component analysis-based functional connectivity has delineated specic parallel cerebro-cerebellocortical networks including Habas etal. (2009) (Fig.49.1):
1. The sensorimotor network (motor and premotor cortex,
cerebellar lobules V–VI and VIII).
2. The right and left executive networks (dorsolateral pre-
frontal and parietal prefrontal cortices, crus I and II).

3. The limbic “salience” network (frontal and insular cortices, lobules VI/VII) involved in interoception, emotional,
and autonomic regulation.
4. The “default-mode network” (dorsomedian prefrontal,
posterior cingulate, retrosplenial and parahippocampal
cortices, precuneus, lobules IX and VII) devoted to consciousness, self-agency, memory, and mental imagery.
5. The dorsal attentional network (precentral sulcus, intraparietal sulcus, MT+, lobules VIIb/VIIIa) implicated in
top-down attention and visual working memory
(Brissenden etal. 2016).
These cognitive and emotional circuits are represented
thrice at the cerebello-cortical surface according to a spatially oriented, gradient-based organization (Guell and
Schmahmann 2020).
We can also add a language-dedicated network including
Broca and Wernicke areas and right crus 1–2 (Tomasi and
Volkow 2012).
It is noteworthy that the dentate nucleus, which constitutes the main target of the overlying Purkinje cells and the
main output channel of the cerebellar cortex, encompasses
during the brain resting-state of three functional territories in
relation with the default-mode, the salience-motor and visual
cortical networks (Guell etal. 2020).
All these genetically prewired and epigenetically modulated circuits correspond to cerebellar closed-loops rst
identied in animals.
49.3 Conclusion
Altogether, available data from animal and human studies agree
with the existence of anatomical and functional well- segregated
parallel cerebro-ponto-cerebello-thalamo-cortical circuits
which may function as distinct modules applying a common
type of computation (putatively internal models or timing function) to different mental activities from motor coordination and
automation to cognition and emotion (Schmahmann 1991,
1996; Ramnani 2006; Schmahmann et al. 2019). Subcortical
loops also enable direct coordination between the cerebellum
and the striatum, including the ventral (limbic) basal ganglia.
