Foxd1 is required for terminal differentiation of anterior hypothalamic neuronal subtypes

ABSTRACT: Although the hypothalamus functions as a master homeostat for many behaviors, little is known about the transcriptional networks that control its development. To investigate this question, we analyzed mice deficient for the Forkhead domain transcription factor Foxd1. Foxd1 is selectively expressed in neuroepithelial cells of the prethalamus and hypothalamus prior to the onset of neurogenesis, and is later restricted to neural progenitors of the prethalamus and anterior hypothalamus. During early stages of neurogenesis, we observed that Foxd1-deficient mice showed reduced expression of Six3 and Vax1 in anterior hypothalamus, but overall patterning of the prethalamus and hypothalamus is unaffected. After neurogenesis is complete, however, a progressive reduction and eventual loss of expression of molecular markers of the suprachiasmatic, paraventricular and periventricular hypothalamic is observed. These findings demonstrate that Foxd1 acts in hypothalamic progenitors to allow sustained expression of a subset of genes selectively expressed in mature neurons of the anterior hypothalamus.

A genomic atlas of mouse hypothalamic development

Project description:The hypothalamus is a central regulator of many behaviors essential for survival such as temperature regulation, food intake and circadian rhythms. However, the molecular pathways that mediate hypothalamic development are largely unknown. To identify genes expressed in developing mouse hypothalamus, microarray analysis at 12 different developmental time points was performed. Developmental in situ hybridization was conducted for 1,045 genes dynamically expressed by microarray analysis. In this way, we identified markers that stably labeled each major hypothalamic nucleus over the entire course of neurogenesis, and thus constructed a detailed molecular atlas of the developing hypothalamus. As proof of concept for the utility of this data, we used these markers to analyze the phenotype of mice where Sonic Hedgehog (Shh) was selectively deleted from hypothalamic neuroepithelium, demonstrating an essential role for Shh in anterior hypothalamic patterning. Our results serve as a resource for functional investigations of hypothalamic development, connectivity, physiology, and dysfunction. Affymetrix MOE430 microarrays were used to analyze the expression patterns of mouse hypothalamic and preoptic area tissues. The results were compared across the variables of Strain, Sex and Age.

Control of neurogenic competence in mammalian hypothalamic tanycytes [RNA-seq]

Project description:Hypothalamic tanycytes, radial glial cells that share many features with neuronal progenitors, can generate small numbers of neurons in the postnatal hypothalamus, but the identity of these neurons and the molecular mechanisms that control tanycyte-derived neurogenesis are unknown. We report that tanycyte-specific disruption of the NFI family of transcription factors (Nfia/b/x) stimulates proliferation and tanycyte-derived neurogenesis. Single-cell RNA- and ATAC-Seq analysis reveals that NFI factors repress Shh and Wnt signaling in tanycytes, and small molecule inhibition of these pathways blocks proliferation and tanycyte-derived neurogenesis in Nfia/b/x-deficient mice. We show that Nfia/b/x-deficient tanycytes give rise to multiple mediobasal hypothalamic neuronal subtypes that can mature, integrate into hypothalamic circuitry, and selectively respond to changes in internal states. These findings identify molecular mechanisms controlling tanycyte-derived neurogenesis that can potentially be targeted to selectively remodel hypothalamic neural circuitry controlling homeostatic physiological processes.

Gene expression profiling of E18.5 FoxD1 Cre;Dicer and control embryonic kidneys

Project description:The aim of this study is to address the functional role of miRNAs in the FoxD1+ renal stroma progenitors and derivatives during embryonic kidney development. To achieve this, we generated transgenic mice that lack miRNAs in the renal stroma lineage (FoxD1 Cre;Dicer), and performed a microarray analysis on E18.5 whole kidneys to determine the transcriptional changes. 3 litters of E18.5 FoxD1 Cre;Dicer and control littermate kidneys were used for the microarray analysis. Each litter consists of kidneys pooled from 2 embryos per genotype for the RNA extraction.

Effect of Foxd1 knockdown in the reprogramming process

Project description:It remains unclear how the ectopic expression of defined transcription factors induces dynamic changes in gene expression profiles that establish a pluripotent state during direct cell reprogramming. In the present study, we first identified a temporal gene expression program during the reprogramming process. Promoter analyses then predicted the role of two forkhead box transcription factors, Foxd1 and Foxo1, as mediators of the gene expression program. Knockdown of Foxd1 or Foxo1 reduced the number of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). The knockout of Foxd1 prevented the downstream transcription program, including the expression of reprogramming marker genes. Interestingly, the expression level of Foxd1 was also transiently increased in a small population of cells in the middle stage of reprogramming. The presence or absence of Foxd1 expression in this stage was correlated with a future cell fate as iPSCs or non-reprogrammed cells. These results suggest that Foxd1 is a mediator and indicator of the successful progression of the gene expression program in cell reprogramming. Mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) of Foxd1+/+, Foxd1+/- or Foxd1-/- were infected with retroviruses encoding the three transcription factors (Oct4, Sox2 and Klf4) at day 0 and sampled at day 8.

Transcriptomic analysis of chic embryos forebrain lacking Notch signalling

Project description:The generation of diverse neuronal types and subtypes from multipotent progenitors during development is crucial for assembling functional neural circuits in the adult central nervous system. It is well known that Notch signalling pathway through the inhibition of proneural genes is a key regulator of neurogenesis in the vertebrate central nervous system. However, its role during hypothalamus formation along with its downstream effectors remains poorly defined. Here, we have transiently blocked Notch activity in chick embryos and used global gene expression analysis to provide evidence that Notch signalling modulates the generation of neurons in the early developing hypothalamus by lateral inhibition. Most importantly, we have taken advantage of this model to identify novel targets of Notch signalling, such as Tagln3 and Chga, which were expressed in hypothalamic neuronal nuclei. This data gives essential advances into the early generation of neurons in the hypothalamus. We demonstrate that inhibition of Notch signalling during early development of the hypothalamus enhances expression of several new markers. These genes must be considered as important new targets of the Notch/proneural network. Four sets of samples were used for analysing transcriptome changes in DAPT treated chicl embryos. The rostral part of the head (including the anterior forebrain, optic vesicles and overlying tissue) was collected from control embryos and DAPT-treated embryos at stage HH13.
