Anterior-Posterior Rotation Transcriptome RNA-Sequencing Analysis of X. laevis

ABSTRACT: To analyze the limits of embryo robustness, several different types of surgeries were performed on the anterior-posterior neural axis of Xenopus laevis embryos. Our RNA-Seq data suggests a model in which aspects of early neural plasticity are associated with unique pathways and their associated genes. The transcriptome analysis reveals several combinations of pathways and genes that incorporate and heal foreign tissue, but also re-pattern the anterior-posterior axis. Maintaining plasticity in the transplants was correlated with expression of neuronal transcription factors, chromatin modifiers, Wnt signaling, calcium signaling, and pattern recognition molecules and pathways. In addition to identifying gene pathways involved in plasticity, the complexity and number of comparisons has necessitated a comparative gene approach and analysis of the RNA-Seq data. Several unique genes and pathways were discovered which support their important role in neural axis repatterning.

Molecular characterization of chick anterior and posterior half-scleorotomes by RNA-sequencing.

Project description:During amniote peripheral nervous system development, segmentation ensures the correct patterning of the spinal nerves relative to vertebral column. Along the antero-posterior (rostro-caudal) axis, each somite-derived half-sclerotome has intrinsic molecular properties that govern this segmentation process. Posterior half-sclerotomes express repellent molecules to restrict axon growth and neural crest migration to anterior half-sclerotomes. Here, we report an RNA-sequencing-based molecular characterization of anterior and posterior half-sclerotomes, using the chick embryo as a model organism.

Region-specific gene expression profiling of early mouse mandible uncovered SATB2 as a key molecule for teeth patterning

Project description:Mammalian dentition exhibits distinct heterodonty, with more simple teeth located in the anterior area of the jaw and more complex teeth situated posteriorly. While some region-specific differences in signaling have been described previously, here we performed gene expression profiling of anterior and posterior areas of the lower jaw at two early stages (E11.5 and E12.5) of organogenesis. Gene expression profiling revealed distinct region-specific expression patterns in mouse mandibles including several known members of BMP and FGF signaling. We have also identified new transcription factors exhibiting strong differences in expression along the anterior-posterior axis, such as SATB2.

GLIS3 Transcriptionally Activates WNT Genes to Promote Differentiation of Human Embryonic Stem Cells to Posterior Neural Progenitors

Project description:Anterior-posterior (A-P) specification of the neural tube involves initial acquisition of anterior fate followed by the induction of posterior characteristics in the primitive anterior neuroectoderm. Several morphogens have been implicated in the regulation of A-P neural patterning; however, our understanding of factors regulating these morphogens remains incomplete. Here we show that the Krüppel-like zinc finger transcription factor GLI-Similar 3 (GLIS3) directs differentiation of human embryonic stem cells into posterior neural progenitor cells in lieu of the default anterior pathway. Transcriptomic analyses reveal that this switch in cell fate is due to rapid activation of an autocrine WNT signaling pathway. Mechanistically, through genome-wide RNA-Seq, ChIP-Seq and functional analyses, we show that GLIS3 binds to and directly regulates the transcription of several WNT genes, including the strong posteriorizing factor WNT3A. Inhibition of WNT signaling is sufficient to abrogate GLIS3-induced posterior specification. Altogether, our findings suggest a critical role for GLIS3 in A-P specification through the direct transcriptional activation of WNT genes.

Rational derivation of midbrain dopamine neuron progenitors from hPSCs using a selective FZD5 antibody agonist [RNA-Seq]

Project description:Current ventral midbrain dopaminergic progenitor differentiation protocols utilize small molecule inhibitors targeting Glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK3) to activate Wnt signaling, a step required for the anterior-posterior patterning of the nervous system and acquisition of the midbrain fate. However, GSK3a and GSK3β are pleiotropic kinases involved in multiple signaling pathways and their inhibition is a known trigger of neurogenesis. We predicted that direct activation of specific Wnt receptors naturally involved during neural patterning would allow for a more precise spatiotemporal control of Wnt/β-catenin signaling and mimic endogenous cell-cell communication mechanisms to improve hPSC differentiation. Here, we characterized the expression of FZD receptors at the surface of neural progenitor cells with different regional identity. Our data shows that FZD5 expression is uniquely upregulated in anterior neural progenitors and is rapidly downregulated as cells adopt a posterior fate. This spatial regulation of Frizzled cell surface expression constitutes a novel regulatory mechanism adjusting the levels of β-catenin signaling along the anterior-posterior axis and possibly contribute to midbrain-hindbrain boundary formation. Using a tetravalent antibody that selectively triggers FZD5 and LRP6 clustering to activate Wnt/β-catenin signaling, we show that the resulting midbrain-patterned neural progenitors exhibit a gene expression program more closely aligned with the anatomical origin of dopaminergic neurons and could hence represent a more efficient source for cell transplant therapies.

Identification and functional analysis of novel genes expressed in the Anterior Visceral Endoderm

Project description:During early development, the correct establishment of the body axes is a critical step. The anterior pole of the mouse embryo is established when Distal Visceral Endoderm (DVE) cells migrate to form the Anterior Visceral Endoderm (AVE). Asymmetrical expression of Lefty1, Cerl and Dkk determines the direction of DVE migration and the future anterior side. Besides being implicated in the establishment of Anterior-Posterior axis the AVE has also been correlated with anterior neural specification. In order to better understand the role of the AVE in these processes, this cell population was isolated using a cerlP-EGFP transgenic mouse line, and a differential screening was performed using Affymetrix GeneChip technology. From this differential screening, 175 genes were found to be upregulated in the AVE, whereas 35 genes were upregulated in the Proximal-posterior sample. Using DAVID, here we characterize the AVE cell population regarding cellular component, molecular function and biological processes. Among the genes that were found to be upregulated in the AVE, several novel genes with expression in the AVE were identified. Four of the identified transcripts displaying high-fold change were further characterized by in situ hybridization in early stages of development in order to validate the screening. From those four selected genes, ADTK1 was chosen to be functionally characterized by targeted inactivation in ES cells. ADTK1 encodes for an unknown serine/threonine kinase. ADTK null mutants present short limbs and defects in the eye and ear. Taken together, these data point to the importance of reporting novel genes present in the AVE. Anterior distal and Posterior proximal portions of an E5.5 mouse embryo were microdissected. RNA was extracted from this portions and hybridized on Affymetrix microarrays in order to identify genes upregulated in the Anterior distal sample. Whole E5.5 embryo RNA was also extracted and hybridized for normalization.

Mouse embryo model derived exclusively from embryonic stem cells undergoes neurulation and heart development

Project description:Several in vitro models have been developed to recapitulate mouse embryogenesis solely from embryonic stem cells (ESCs). Despite mimicking many aspects of early development, they fail to capture the interactions between embryonic and extraembryonic tissues. To overcome this difficulty, we have developed a mouse ESC-based in vitro model that reconstitutes the pluripotent ESC lineage and the two extra-embryonic lineages of the post-implantation embryo by transcription factor-mediated induction. This unified model recapitulates developmental events from embryonic day 5.5 to 8.5, including gastrulation, and formation of the anterior-posterior axis, brain, a beating heart structure, and the development of extraembryonic tissues, including yolk sac and chorion. Comparing single-cell RNA sequencing from individual structures with time-matched natural embryos identified remarkably similar transcriptional programs across lineages, but also showed when and where the model diverges from the natural program. Our findings demonstrate an extraordinary plasticity of ESCs to self-organize and generate a whole embryo-like structure.

RNAseq of mouse presomitic mesoderm segments along the anteroposterior embryo axis.

Project description:Somitogenesis is the segmentation of the developing embryonic body axis into somites and is guided by oscillating genes, which create waves of expression that travel across the presomitic mesoderm (PSM) from posterior to anterior. Upon arrival of a wave at the PSM's anterior end, a new somite is formed. To identify genes that are expressed in a wave-like pattern we dissected the PSM of four different mouse embryos (pre-turned), separated the left and right sides, and divided each into five segments, from posterior to anterior (sampling sites 1 to 5). Each segment was used to construct libraries for high-throughput RNA-sequencing. For one embryo, we also sequenced two somites.
