Erf chromatin binding-sites in E13.5 mouse embryo fibroblasts

ABSTRACT: We show that reduced dosage of ERF, which encodes an inhibitory ETS transcription factor directly bound by ERK1/2 , causes complex craniosynostosis (premature fusion of the cranial sutures) in humans and mice. Features of this newly recognized clinical disorder include multiple suture synostosis, craniofacial dysmorphism, Chiari malformation and language delay. Mice with functional Erf reduced to ~30% of normal exhibit postnatal multisuture synostosis; by contrast, embryonic calvarial development appears mildly delayed. Using chromatin immunoprecipitation in mouse embryonic fibroblasts and high-throughput sequencing, we find that ERF binds preferentially to distal regulatory elements containing RUNX or AP1 motifs. This work identifies ERF as a novel regulator of osteogenic stimulation by RAS-ERK signaling, potentially by competing with activating ETS factors in multifactor transcriptional complexes.

Skeletal Stem Cell Powering Cranial Suture Fate: An Answer to Craniosynostosis (scRNA-seq)

Project description:Purpose: The cranial suture is a fibrous joint, and similar to the growth plates of the skeletal long bone, they serve as the major centers of calvarial vault morphogenesis. Our group’s identification of a skeletal stem cell isolated from the mouse tibial growth plate prompted us to investigate whether these skeletal stem cells are also resident in the mouse cranial sutures and if they govern postnatal suture patency or fusion. Results: We preformed a spatio-temporal profiling of the mouse cranial sutures by flow cytometry, demonstrating a significant decrease in the temporal representation of skeletal stem cells in fusing versus patent sutures. Moreover, canonical Wnt signaling has a significant impact on skeletal stem cells proliferation and thus representation within the suture, dictating fate: fusion or patency. Breeding an Axin2+/-LacZ mouse, with enhanced activation of canonical Wnt signaling to a Twist1+/− mouse, harboring a coronal craniosynostosis enriched the skeletal stem cell pool in coronal sutures, thereby preventing Twist1+/− craniosynostosis. Conclusions: Our findings suggest an imbalance and/or decrease in resident skeletal stem cells within the cranial sutures gives rise to craniosynostosis, however, restoring this representation by enriching skeletal stem cells within the suture can maintain patency.

Gene Expression Changes Between Patent and Fused Cranial Sutures in a Nonsyndromic Craniosynostosis Population

Project description:Assaying gene expression in sutural bone fragments from patients diagnosed with non-syndromic craniosynostosis. Sutural fragments were collected from both the fused and patent cranial suture of infants during cranial vault reconstruction. Gene expression was compared between the patent and fused sutures using the paired t-test. The aim was to identify thoses genes significantly differentially expressed in fused suture relative to patent. Total RNA isolated from patent and fused human cranial sutures was assayed. Expression in synostosed suture was compared to patent suture.

The developing mouse coronal suture at single-cell resolution

Project description:Sutures separate the flat bones of the skull and enable coordinated growth of the brain and overlying cranium. In order to uncover the cellular diversity within sutures, we conducted single-cell transcriptomic and histological analyses of the embryonic murine coronal suture. We identify Erg and Pthlh as early markers of osteogenic progenitors in sutures, and distinct pre-osteoblast signatures between the bone fronts and periosteum. diverse mesenchymal layers at the coronal suture, including multiple distinct meningeal layers below the suture, and ligamentous, ectocranial, and hypodermal layers above the sutureIn the ectocranial layers above the suture, we observe a ligament-like population spanning the frontal and parietal bones and expressing genes implicated in mechanosensation. Mesenchyme in and around the coronal suture is asymmetrically distributed between the frontal and parietal bones, and we identify different states of osteogenic cells extending from the bone fronts into the more mature bone, and a potential signature for sutural stem cellsIn the meningeal layers, we detect a potential chondrogenic periosteal dura population that may be involved in endochondral ossification that closes sutures. Expression of genes mutated in craniosynostosis is spread across diverse cell types, suggesting multiple points at which homeostasis can fail. This single-cell atlas provides a resource to understand the development of the coronal suture, the suture most commonly fused in craniosynostosis.

Comparative tissue gene expression profiling and alternative splicing by exon-sensitive microarrays in non-syndromic craniosynostosis

Project description:Craniosynostosis (CS) is the congenital premature fusion of one or more cranial sutures and represents the more prevalent craniofacial malformation in humans, with an overall incidence of 1 out of 2000-3000 live births. Non-syndromic craniosynostoses (NSC) are believed to be multifactorial disorders, with a strong genetic component, due to possible gene–gene or gene–environment interactions that remain to be clearly identified. In this study we delved into the molecular signaling acting in calvarial tissue and cells from patients affected by nonsynodromic midline craniosynostosis, using a comparative analysis between fused and unfused sutures of each affected individuals. Using comparative microarray tissue gene expression profiling we have identified a subset of genes involved in the structure and function of the primary cilium, including the Bardet-Biedl syndrome 9 (BBS9) gene, which was recently associated to sagittal synostosis in a GWAS study. We therefore characterized BBS9 expression and cilium-related signaling in cells isolated from patients’ calvarial bone.

Calvarial osteoblast transcriptome analysis identifies genetic targets and extracellular matrix-mediated focal adhesion as potential biomarkers for single-suture craniosynostosis

Project description:Craniosynostosis is a disease defined by premature fusion of one or more cranial sutures. The mechanistic pathology of isolated single-suture craniosynostosis is complex and while a number of genetic biomarkers and environmental predispositions have been identified, in many cases the causes remain controversial and inconclusive at best. After controlling for variables contributing to potential bias, FGF7, SFRP4, and VCAM1 emerged as potential genetic biomarkers for single-suture craniosynostosis due to their significantly large changes in gene expression compared to the control population. Furthermore, pathway analysis implicated focal adhesion and extracellular matrix (ECM)-receptor interaction as differentially regulated gene networks when comparing all cases of single-suture synostosis and controls. Lastly, overall gene expression was found to be highly conserved between coronal and metopic cases, as evidenced by the fact that WNT2 and IGFBP2 were the only differentially regulated genes identified in a direct comparison. These results not only confirm the roles of previously reported craniosynostosis-related targets but also introduce novel genetic biomarkers and pathways that may play critical roles in its pathogenesis.

Compound craniosynostosis, intellectual disability and Noonan-like facial dysmorphism associated with 7q32.3-q35 deletion

Project description:Craniosynostosis (CS) is the premature fusion of the cranial sutures,occurring either in isolated or syndromic form. CS was described in over 180 genetic syndromes that comprise 15-30% of all CS cases. Syndromic CS usually has a monogenic inheritance and originates in most of the patients from mutations within the FGFR1, FGFR2, FGFR3, and TWIST1 genes. Causative alterations in other genes, or rarely copy number variations (CNVs) were also reported. In this paper, we describe a patient with Noonan-like facial dysmorphism accompanied by intellectual disability, and compound CS, involving coronal, sagittal, and squamous sutures. We have shown that the index carried a large and rare heterozygous deletion, which encompassed 12.782 Mb and mapped to a chromosomal region of 7q32.3-q35 (HG38 – chr7:131837067-144607071). The aberration comprised 109 protein-coding genes, including BRAF, that encodes serine/threonine-protein kinase B-Raf, being a part of the RAS/MAPK signaling pathway. The RAS/MAPK pathway plays an essential role in human development, hence its dysregulation not surprisingly results in severe congenital anomalies, such as phenotypically overlapping syndromes termed RASopathies. To our best knowledge, we report here the first CNV causing haploinsufficiency of BRAF, resulting in dysregulation of the RAS/MAPK cascade, and consequently, in the phenotype observed in our patient. To conclude, with this report, we have pointed to the involvement of the RAS/MAPK signaling pathway in CS development. Moreover, we have shown that the molecular analysis based on both DNA and RNA profiling, undoubtedly constitutes a comprehensive diagnostic and research strategy for elucidating a cause of genetic diseases.
