Transcriptome profiling of microRNA-induced neurons, microRNA-induced motor neurons, and starting fibroblasts [array]

ABSTRACT: Neuronal microRNAs miR-9/9* and miR-124 (miR-9/9*-124) direct cell-fate conversion of adult human fibroblasts to post-mitotic neurons and work in concert with additional transcription factors to enable the generation of discrete neuronal subtypes. Previously, the molecular events underlying the neurogenic switch mediated by microRNAs during neuronal reprogramming were unknown. Here, we systematically dissected the neurogenic state induced by miR-9/9*-124 alone. We found that miR-9/9*-124 surprisingly stimulate reconfiguration of chromatin accessibility, DNA methylation and mRNA levels, leading to the generation of functionally excitable neurons that are not yet biased towards a particular subtype-lineage. Further subtype identity can be programmed through additional transcription factors. As such, we show ISL1 and LHX3 selectively commit conversion to a highly homogenous population of human spinal cord motor neurons. Taken together, our study reveals a modular synergism between microRNAs and transcription factors that allows lineage-specific neuronal reprogramming, providing a platform for generating distinct subtypes of human neurons.

Genome-wide profiling of DNA methylation by MRE-seq during microRNA-mediated neuronal reprogramming [MRE-seq]

Project description:Neuronal microRNAs, miR-9/9* and miR-124 (miR-9/9*-124), exert reprogramming activities to direct cell-fate conversion of adult human fibroblasts to post-mitotic neurons and enable the generation of discrete neuronal subtypes with additional transcription factors. Previously, the molecular events underlying the neurogenic switch mediated by microRNAs during neuronal reprogramming were unknown. Here, we systematically dissected the neurogenic state induced by miR-9/9*-124 alone and reveal the surprising capability of miR-9/9*-124 in coordinately stimulating the reconfiguration of chromatin accessibilities, DNA methylation and transcriptome, leading to the generation of functionally excitable neurons, yet unbiased towards a particular subtype-lineage. We show that the microRNA-induced neuronal state enables additional transcription factors, ISL1 and LHX3, to selectively commit conversion to a highly homogenous population of human spinal cord motor neurons.

MicroRNAs and Ascl1 facilitate direct conversion of porcine fibroblasts into induced neurons

Project description:Direct neuronal conversion describes the process of generating induced neurons from somatic cells such as fibroblasts by overexpressing cell type-specific transcription factors. This was first achieved by expressing Brn2, Ascl1 and MytL1 in mouse fibroblasts, and was later achieved in human cells by inclusion of additional factors such as NeuroD1. Here, we present the first protocol for directly converting porcine fibroblasts into induced neurons. We used lentivirus-mediated delivery of previously identified neuronal-specifying transcription factors and microRNAs and evaluated morphology and neuronal marker expression after ten days of conversion. We found that Ascl1 and microRNAs, miR-9/9* and miR-124 together generated more neuronal cells than other conditions tested. The porcine induced neurons expressed common mature markers such as MAP2 and Synaptophysin after four weeks of conversion. Transcriptomic analysis revealed that fibroblast-specific signatures were silenced early in the conversion process, while the neuronal programs increased and matured during conversion. We generated a heterogenous population of glutamatergic and GABAergic neurons.

MiR-124 synergism with ELAVL3 enhances target gene expression to promote neuronal maturity [Rat_Neurons_RNAseq]

Project description:Neuron-enriched microRNAs (miRNAs), miR-9/9* and miR-124 (miR-9/9*-124), direct cell fate switching of human fibroblasts to neurons when ectopically expressed by repressing anti-neurogenic genes. How these miRNAs function after the onset of the transcriptome switch to a neuronal fate remains unclear. Here, we identified direct targets of miRNAs by Argonaute (AGO) HITS-CLIP as reprogramming cells activate the neuronal program and reveal the role of miR-124 that directly promotes the expression of its target genes associated with neuronal development and function.
