A gene regulatory network for neural induction

ABSTRACT: During early vertebrate development, signals from a special region of the embryo, the organizer, can re-direct the fate of non-neural ectoderm cells to form a complete, patterned nervous system. This is called neural induction and has generally been imagined as a single signaling event, causing a switch of fate. Here we undertake a comprehensive analysis, in very fine time-course, of the events following exposure of ectoderm to the organizer. Using transcriptomics and epigenomics we generate a Gene Regulatory Network comprising 175 transcriptional regulators and 5,614 predicted interactions between them, with fine temporal dynamics from initial exposure to the signals to expression of mature neural plate markers. Using in situ hybridization, single-cell RNA-sequencing and reporter assays we show that neural induction by a grafted organizer mimics normal neural plate development. The study is accompanied by a comprehensive resource including information about conservation of the predicted enhancers in different vertebrate systems.

A gene regulatory network for neural induction

Project description:During early vertebrate development, signals from a special region of the embryo, the organizer, can re-direct the fate of non-neural ectoderm cells to form a complete, patterned nervous system. The process has generally been imagined as the result of a single signaling event, causing a simple switch. Here we undertake a comprehensive analysis, in very fine time-course, of the events following exposure of ectoderm to signals from the organizer. Using transcriptomics and epigenomics we generate a Gene Regulatory Network comprising 175 transcriptional regulators and 5,614 predicted interactions between them, with temporal dynamics from initial exposure to the signals to expression of mature neural plate markers.

10x single cell RNAseq of chick ectoderm from stages HH5 to ss4

Project description:The vertebrate ectoderm gives rise to a variety of cell lineages, including neural, neural crest, placodal and non-neural cell fates. How cell fates are specified at the neural plate border (the region surrounding the neural plate) is not fully understood. We therefore carried out 10x scRNAseq of the chick epiblast to investigate cell fate specification at the neural plate border. Embryos were dissected and pooled according to stage. The tissue was then dissociated and FAC sorted to remove dead cells and remaining doublets before cells were stored in MeOH. Due to the time required to dissect embryos, multiple rounds of collections were carried out, with collections from the same stage pooled prior to 10x sequencing. Libraries were sequenced using an Illumina HiSeq 4000 at the Francis Crick Institute, London. This collection was a follow up to E-MTAB-10408.

Fate specification of neural plate border by canonical Wnt signaling and Grhl3 is crucial for neural tube closure.

Project description:During primary neurulation, the separation of a single-layered ectodermal sheet into the surface ectoderm (SE) and neural tube specifies SE and neural ectoderm (NE) cell fates. The mechanisms underlying fate specification in conjunction with neural tube closure are poorly understood. Here, by comparing expression profiles between SE and NE lineages, we observed that uncommitted progenitor cells, expressing stem cell markers, are present in the neural plate border/neural fold prior to neural tube closure. To identify what type of signaling pathways and transcriptional factors are involved in the fate specification between SE and NE cells during neurulation.

From neural border epithelium to neural crest emigration: A comprehensive single cell roadmap of the timing and regulatory logic underlying cranial and vagal neural crest emergence [morpholinoRNAseq]

Project description:Neural crest cells exemplify cellular diversification from a multipotent progenitor population. However, the full sequence of molecular choices governing the emergence of neural crest heterogeneity from the ectoderm remains elusive. Gene regulatory networks govern these steps of embryonic development and cell specification towards definitive neural crest. Here, we combine ultra-dense single cell transcriptomes with machine-learning strategies and experimental validation to provide a comprehensive gene regulatory network driving vertebrate neural crest fate diversification, from induction to early migration stages. Transcription factor connectome and bifurcation analyses demonstrate emergence of early neural crest fates at the neural plate stage, alongside an unbiased multipotent neural crest lineage persisting until after epithelial-mesenchymal transition. We also define a new and transient neural border zone state, preceding choice between neural crest and placodes during gastrulation. Theis combination of experimental tests, with Machine Learning broadly applicable to single cell transcriptomics, deciphers the circuits driving cranial and vagal neural crest formation and provides a general model for investigating vertebrate GRNs in development, evolution and disease.
