DRG co-culture microarray

ABSTRACT: Gene regulatory interactions that shape developmental processes can often can be inferred from microarray analysis of gene expression, but most computational methods used require extensive datasets that can be difficult to generate. Here, we show that maximumentropy network analysis allows extraction of genetic interactions from limited microarray datasets. Maximum-entropy networks indicated that the inflammatory cytokine TNF-_ plays a pivotal role in Schwann cell–axon interactions, and these data suggested that TNF mediates its effects by orchestrating cytoplasmic movement and axon guidance. In vivo and in vitro experiments confirmed these predictions, showing that Schwann cells in TNF_/_ peripheral sensory bundles fail to envelop axons efficiently, and that recombinant TNF can partially correct these defects. These data demonstrate the power of maximum-entropy network-based methods for analysis of microarray data, and they indicate that TNF-_ plays a direct role in Schwann cell–axon communication.

Transcriptome profiling of 15 conditions for Escherichia coli selected from optimal experiment design

Project description:For finding new conditions that show maximum entropy and highest prediction interval, we bound the condition space to explore by making a list of top 98 conditions for MG1655 without genetic perturbations that use 13 most populated stresses (acidic, Ax, Bm, butanol, Cfs, cold, ethanol, heat, Mcn, Nx, hypoxia, osmotic, oxidative) or no stress and 7 most-used carbon sources (Glu 0.4%, Gly 0.4%, Lac 0.4%, Galactose, Arabinose 0.4%, Glucose 0.2%, and Alanine) for M9 medium. Among them, 13 conditions were in Ecomics dataset. For the 85 unexplored conditions, we identify the top 15 conditions that show maximum entropy and highest prediction interval in an adaptive fashion. That is, for each iteration, we find a condition in the list that shows maximum entropy and highest prediction interval from the model that was built from the training data. Since the maximum entropy quantification and prediction interval value are not at the same scale, we bound the two measures between zero and one by min-max normalization for 85 conditions. Then we supplement the predicted expression levels for that candidate condition and repeat the next iteration of the procedure, until we identify all 15 conditions. The initial training data is 2610 profiles of 178 transcription factors. Transcriptome profiling of 45 samples (3 replicates for each condition) for E. coli selected from optimal experiment design for genome-scale model.

BioID study of the PHB2 interactome in Schwann cells and how it changes depending on neuronal signals

Project description:Schwann cells are critical for the proper development and function of the peripheral nervous system, where they form a collaborative relationship with axons. Past studies highlighted that a pair of proteins called the prohibitins play major roles in Schwann cell biology. Prohibitins are ubiquitously expressed and versatile proteins. We have previously shown that while prohibitins play a crucial role in Schwann cell mitochondria for long-term myelin maintenance and axon health, they may also be present at the Schwann cell-axon interface during development. The current data set uses BioID to identify a pool of candidate PHB2 interactors in Schwann cells and explores how the PHB2 interactome changes depending on neuronal signals. We expressed a PHB2-turboID fusion construct in primary rat Schwann cells; turboID is a 35 kDa engineered biotin ligase that rapidly biotinylates proximal proteins. Thus, proteins interacting with PHB2-turboID within an approximately 10 nm radius are tagged with biotin. As a control, primary rat Schwann cells were transfected with an unfused turboID construct (Con-turboID). Schwann cells expressing Con-turboID or PHB2-turboID were plated alone or onto primary rat DRG neurons, in the presence or absence of biotin. After 2 hours, proteins were harvested from the cultures and biotinylated proteins were purified using streptavidin-affinity purification (AP). We then used liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) to identify the PHB2-turboID interactors (the biotinylated proteins) in our purified pool. The PHB2 interactors identified here, especially those which increase or decrease interaction with PHB2-turboID in the presence of neurons, may play a role in prohibitin-associated Schwann cell-axon communication.

Insights into olfactory ensheathing cell development from a laser-microdissection and transcriptome-profiling approach

Project description:Olfactory ensheathing cells (OECs) are neural crest-derived glia that ensheath bundles of olfactory axons from their peripheral origins in the olfactory epithelium to their central targets in the olfactory bulb. We took an unbiased laser microdissection and differential RNA-seq approach, validated by in situ hybridisation, to identify candidate molecular mechanisms underlying mouse OEC development and differences with the neural crest-derived Schwann cells developing on other peripheral nerves. We identified 25 novel markers for developing OECs in the olfactory mucosa and/or the olfactory nerve layer surrounding the olfactory bulb, of which 15 were OEC-specific, i.e., not expressed by Schwann cells. One pan-OEC-specific gene, Ptprz1, encodes a receptor-like tyrosine phosphatase that blocks oligodendrocyte differentiation. Mutant analysis suggests Ptprz1 may also act as a brake on OEC differentiation, and that its loss disrupts olfactory axon targeting. Overall, our results provide new insights into OEC development and the diversification of neural crest-derived glia.

Centrosome-mediated microtubule remodeling during axon formation in human iPSC-derived neurons

Project description:Local microtubule remodeling is critical for axon formation, the first step in establishing neuronal polarity. However, the function of the microtubule organizing centrosomes during the onset of axon formation, is still under debate. Here, we demonstrate that centrosomes play an essential role in controlling axon formation in human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived neurons. Depleting centrioles, the core components of centrosomes, in unpolarized human neuronal stem cells results in various axon developmental defects at later stages, including immature action potential firing, mistargeting of microtubule associated protein Trim46, suppressed expression of growth cone proteins and affected growth cone morphologies. Live-cell imaging of dynamic microtubules reveals that centriole loss prevents axonal microtubule reorganization towards the unique parallel plus-end out microtubule bundles in growing axons. We propose that centrosomes mediate microtubule remodeling during axon specification in human iPSC-derived neurons, thereby setting the foundation for further axon development and function.

TFEB/3 govern repair Schwann cell generation and function following peripheral nerve injury

Project description:After peripheral nerve injury, adult Schwann cells convert to progenitor cell-like repair Schwann cells, which are pivotal for nerve regeneration. We show that Schwann cell-specific deletion of TFEB/3 disrupts the transcriptomic reprogramming necessary for injury-induced repair Schwann cell generation in mice. The mutant mice fail to generate proliferating repair Schwann cells to populate the injured nerves. Distal Schwann cells fail to express injury-responsive genes and continue to maintain the expression of myelin-associated genes. TFEB/3 binding motifs are enriched in injury-induced enhancers, suggesting their role in repair gene activation. Autophagy-dependent myelin breakdown is not impaired in the mutant mice despite the known function of TFEB/3 as autophagy activators. However, the mutant mice exhibit defects in axon regeneration, target reinnervation, and functional recovery. Therefore, TFEB/3 play a critical role in orchestrating transcriptional changes essential for repair Schwann cell generation and function necessary for peripheral nerve regeneration.

RNA sequencing analysis of PINCH mutant sciatic nerves

Project description:During peripheral nervous system (PNS) development, Schwann cells (SC) depend on interactions between extracellular matrix proteins, integrins and growth factor signal transduction pathways for survival, sorting and wrapping of axon segments to form myelin. Together with integrin-linked-kinase and parvins, PINCH (Particularly-interesting-new-cystidin-hystidin-rich protein) forms a heterotrimeric complex referred to as the IPP complex, which functions as a signaling hub connecting integrins with various signaling pathways. Using SC-specific conditional gene targeting in mice, gene expression profiling by RNAseq, and other methodologies, we demonstrate distinct functional roles for PINCH1 and PINCH2 in SC.

Failures of nerve regeneration caused by aging or chronic denervation are rescued by restoring Schwann cell c-Jun

Project description:After nerve injury, myelin and Remak Schwann cells reprogram to repair cells specialized for regeneration. Normally providing strong regenerative support, these cells fail in aging animals, and during the chronic denervation that results from slow axon growth. This impairs axonal regeneration and causes a significant clinical problem. We find that aging and chronically denervated repair cells express reduced c-Jun protein and the regenerative support provided by these cells is also reduced. In both cases, genetically restoring Schwann cell c-Jun levels restores regeneration to that in controls. We identify potential gene candidates mediating this effect and implicate Shh in the control of Schwann cell c-Jun levels. These experiments reveal that a common mechanism, reduced c-Jun in repair cells, underlies two major reasons for regeneration failure in the PNS. They underscore the central importance of Schwann cell c-Jun as a regulator of nerve repair, and point to molecular pathways that can be manipulated for improving the clinical outcome of nerve injuries.

A topographic atlas defines developmental origins of cell heterogeneity in the human embryonic lung [ST]

Project description:The lung contains numerous specialized cell-types with distinct roles in tissue function and integrity. To clarify the origins and mechanisms generating cell heterogeneity, we created a comprehensive topographic atlas of early human lung development. Here, we report 83 cell states, several spatially-resolved developmental trajectories and predict cell interactions within defined tissue niches. We integrated scRNA-Seq and spatially resolved transcriptomics into a web-based, open platform for interactive exploration. We show distinct gene expression programs, accompanying sequential events of cell differentiation and maturation of the secretory and neuroendocrine cell-types in proximal epithelium. We define the origin of airway fibroblasts associated with airway smooth muscle in bronchovascular bundles and describe a trajectory of Schwann cell progenitors to intrinsic parasympathetic neurons controlling bronchoconstriction. Our atlas provides a rich resource for further research and a reference for defining deviations from homeostatic and repair mechanisms leading to pulmonary diseases.

c-JUN REPROGRAMS SCHWANN CELLS OF INJURED NERVES TO GENERATE A REPAIR CELL ESSENTIAL FOR REGENERATION

Project description:The striking PNS regenerative response to injury rests on the plasticity of adult Schwann cells and their ability to transit between differentiation states, a highly unusual feature in mammals. Using mice with inactivation of Schwann cell c-Jun, we show that the injury response involves c-Jun dependent natural reprograming of differentiated cells to generate a distinct Schwann cell state specialized to promote regeneration. Transected distal stumps of c-Jun mutants show 172 disregulated genes, resulting in abnormal expression of growth factors, adhesion molecules and cytoskeletal changes that lead to neuronal death, inhibition of axon growth and striking failures of functional repair after injury. These observations provide a molecular basis for understanding Schwann cell plasticity and nerve regeneration. They offer conclusive support for the notion that Schwann cells control repair in the PNS, using dedicated transcriptional controls to generate a distinct repair cell, a transition that shows similarities to transdifferentiation seen in other systems.
