Project description:Neural cest cells are a transient stem cell-like population appearing during vertebrate embryonic development. Generation of the cranial neural crest is known to require a balanced combination of FGF and BMP levels. However, it is poorly understood how the functions of such growth factors are controlled in the extracellular spaces. Here we identifiy the extracelluar matrix protein anosmin (Gga.14976.1.S1_at, clone ChEST132d10) as a novel molecule synthesized locally in the cranial neural crest of chicken embryos. Cranial neural folds (NF) and ventral neural plates (NP) were dissected from Hamburger & Hamilton stage 8 (HH8) embryos (80 to 14 embryos, n=4), and total RNA was analyzed using a GeneChip chicken genome arrays (Affymetrix)

Project description:The epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and migration of cranial neural crest cells are critical processes that occur in the early embryo that permit proper craniofacial patterning. Disruptions in these processes not only impair development but also lead to various diseases, underscoring the need for their detailed understanding at the molecular level. The chick embryo has served historically as an excellent model for human embryonic development. While chick cranial neural crest cell EMT and migration have been characterized at the transcript level, studies at the protein level—to allow direct measurement of the active players—have not been undertaken to date. In this study, we applied mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics to establish a deep proteomics profile of the midbrain region during early embryonic development. We developed a proteomics method combining optimal lysis conditions and offline fractionation with nanoflow liquid chromatography coupled to high-resolution MS to analyze the tissue from this region, which identified >5,900 proteins involved in key pathways related to neural crest cell EMT and migration such as signaling, proteolysis/extracellular matrix (ECM), and transcriptional regulation. This study offers valuable insight into important developmental processes occurring in the midbrain region and demonstrates the utility of proteomics for characterization of various tissues during chick embryogenesis.

Project description:Ectoderm-derived neural crest is a transient structure arising during early embryogenesis in vertebrates. Neural crest consists of four derivatives based on their anterior- to posterior location along the body axis; cranial, vagal, trunk and sacral, respectively. We recently showed that trunk neural crest-specific gene MOXD1 functions as a tumor suppressor in trunk neural crest-derived childhood cancer form neuroblastoma and is essential for proper development of healthy adrenal glands. However, the role of MOXD1 during early embryogenesis is not known. Here, we conditionally knocked out MOXD1 in trunk neural crest cells before they become lineage-committed, using a CRISPR/Cas9 approach in chick embryos. Assessment of embryo growth showed that knockout of MOXD1 delayed development with knockout embryos being smaller. RNA sequencing of trunk-derived neural crest cells from control and knockout embryos showed enrichment of genes connected to gland development, copper ion metabolism and neuroblastoma progression. In conclusion, MOXD1 is important during early and prolonged embryonic development with effects on gland formation, possibly mediated via its role in copper metabolism.

Project description:The dynamics of multipotent neural crest cell differentiation and invasion as cells travel throughout the vertebrate embryo remain unclear. Here, we preserve spatial information to derive the transcriptional states of migrating neural crest cells and the cellular landscape of the first four chick cranial to cardiac branchial arches (BA1-4) using label-free, unsorted single-cell RNA sequencing. The faithful capture of branchial arch-specific genes led to identification of novel markers of migrating neural crest cells and 266 invasion genes common to all BA1-4 streams. Perturbation analysis of a small subset of invasion genes and time-lapse imaging identified their functional role to regulate neural crest cell behaviors. Comparison of the neural crest invasion signature to other cell invasion phenomena revealed a shared set of 45 genes, a subset of which showed direct relevance to human neuroblastoma cell lines analyzed after exposure to the in vivo chick embryonic neural crest microenvironment. Our data define an important spatio-temporal reference resource to address patterning of the vertebrate head and neck, and previously AQ1 unidentified cell invasion genes with the potential for broad impact.
