Single-cell RNA-Seq reveals a developmental atlas of human prefrontal cortex

ABSTRACT: Mammalian prefrontal cortex contains billions of cells, some of which are known as neurons to play critical roles in memory, cognitive ability, decision making, social behavior etc. through participating into complex neural circuits. Although neural circuits build up in the late stage of human embryo development and even after birth, the diverse and functional cells start to generate and migrate to the appropriate location play essential roles as basis for developing future circuits. However, it remains challenging to identify cell types of developing human PFC and distinguish their developmental features. Here, to address these challenges, single cells from human embryos PFC were carried out for RNA-seq. Detailed analysis of neural progenitor cells (NPCs) illustrated a developmental feature of intermediate progenitor (IP) cells and revealed new marker genes of IP cells. We also mapped the neurogenesis timeline of PFC excitatory neurons and intrinsic singles regulating neuron maturation and circuit formation. Our screening and characterization approach provides a blueprint of human PFC development in early and mid embryonic stages, with which to systematically discover the cellular basis and molecular regulation of PFC function in humans.

FASN-dependent de novo lipogenesis is required for brain development

Project description:Fate and behaviour of neural progenitor cells is tightly regulated during mammalian brain development. Metabolic pathways, such as glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation, that are required for supplying energy and providing molecular building blocks to generate cells, govern progenitor function. However, the role of de novo lipogenesis, which is the conversion of glucose into fatty acids through the multi-enzyme protein fatty acid synthase (FASN), for brain development remains unknown. Using Emx1Cre-mediated, tissue-specific deletion of Fasn in the mouse embryonic telencephalon, we show that loss of FASN causes severe microcephaly, largely due to altered polarity of apical, radial glia progenitors (APs) and reduced progenitor proliferation. Further, genetic deletion and pharmacological inhibition of FASN in human embryonic stem cell (ESC)-derived forebrain organoids identifies a conserved role of FASN-dependent lipogenesis for radial glia cell polarity and progenitor expansion in the developing human forebrain. Thus, our data establish a role of de novo lipogenesis for mouse and human brain development and identify a link between progenitor cell polarity and lipid metabolism.

A MULTIPLEX HUMAN PLURIPOTENT STEM CELL PLATFORM DEFINES MOLECULAR AND FUNCTIONAL SUBTYPES OF AUTISM

Project description:We report a multiplex human pluripotent stem cell platform to investigate autism associated genetic variation during the development of the prefrontal cortex. This dataset represents the biological replicate datasets of our hPSC-derived prefrontal (PFC) and occipital (OCC) differentiation compared with neural stem cells (NSCs). We find that the top genes associated with PFC identity correlate well with in vivo PFC using the Allen Developmental Transcriptome data.

Chromatin Accessibility in Developing Human Brain

Project description:<p>Non-coding regions comprise most of the human genome and harbor a significant fraction of risk alleles for neuropsychiatric diseases, yet their functions remain poorly defined. We created a high-resolution map of non-coding elements involved in human cortical neurogenesis by contrasting chromatin accessibility and gene expression in the germinal zone and cortical plate of the developing cerebral cortex. To obtain a high resolution depiction of chromatin structure and gene expression in developing human fetal cortex, we dissected the post-conception week (PCW) 15-17 human neocortex into two major anatomical divisions to distinguish between proliferating neural progenitors and post mitotic neurons: (1) GZ: the neural progenitor-enriched region encompassing the ventricular zone (VZ), subventricular zone (SVZ), and intermediate zone (IZ) and (2) CP: the neuron-enriched region containing the subplate (SP), cortical plate (CP), and marginal zone (MZ). Tissues were obtained from three independent donors and three to four technical replicates from each tissue were processed for ATAC-seq to define the landscape of accessible chromatin and RNA-seq for genome-wide gene expression profiling.</p>

Identification of Sox3 targets in mouse neural progenitor cells

Project description:Sox3 has been shown to be expressed within neural progenitors of the developing mouse central nervous system. However, identification of Sox3 targets within neural progenitors has remained elusive. Using microarrays we compared populations of in vitro derived mouse neural progenitor cells, with or without Sox3, to identify putative Sox3 neural progenitor targets. Mouse R1 ES cells, with or without Sox3, were differentiated into neural progenitor cells using the standard N2B27 protocols. At the fourth day of N2B27 differentiation, over two independent series, RNA was extracted from both Sox3 positive and Sox3 null populations and hybridization on a GeneChip Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Affymetrix microarrays.

Single cell transcriptome atlases of the developing mouse and human spinal cord [mouse dataset]

Project description:The spinal cord receives input from peripheral sensory neurons and controls motor output by regulating muscle innervating motor neurons. These functions are carried out by neural circuits comprising molecularly and physiologically distinct neuronal subtypes that are generated in a characteristic spatial-temporal arrangement from progenitors in the embryonic neural tube. The systematic mapping of gene expression in mouse embryos has provided insight into the diversity and complexity of cells in the neural tube. For human embryos, however, less information has been available. To address this, we used single cell mRNA sequencing to profile cervical and thoracic regions in four human embryos of Carnegie Stages (CS) CS12, CS14, CS17 and CS19 from Gestational Weeks (W) 4-7. In total we recovered the transcriptomes of 71,219 cells. Analysis of progenitor and neuronal populations from the neural tube, as well as cells of the peripheral nervous system, in dorsal root ganglia adjacent to the neural tube, identified dozens of distinct cell types and facilitated the reconstruction of the differentiation pathways of specific neuronal subtypes. Comparison with existing mouse datasets revealed the overall similarity of mouse and human neural tube development while highlighting specific features that differed between species. These data provide a catalogue of gene expression and cell type identity in the developing neural tube that will support future studies of sensory and motor control systems.
