Developmental trajectories of thalamic nuclei revealed by single-cell transcriptome profiling and Shh perturbation

ABSTRACT: The thalamus is the principal information hub of the vertebrate brain, with essential roles in sensory and motor information processing, attention, and memory. The complex array of thalamic nuclei develops from a restricted pool of neural progenitors. We apply longitudinal single-cell RNA-sequencing and regional abrogation of Sonic hedgehog (Shh) to map the developmental trajectories of thalamic progenitors, intermediate progenitors, and post-mitotic neurons as they coalesce into distinct thalamic nuclei. These data reveal that the complex architecture of the thalamus is established early during embryonic brain development through the coordinated action of four cell differentiation lineages derived from Shh-dependent and independent progenitors. We systematically characterize the gene expression programs that define these thalamic lineages across time and demonstrate how their disruption upon Shh depletion causes pronounced locomotor impairment resembling infantile Parkinson’s disease. These results reveal key principles of thalamic development and provide mechanistic insights into neurodevelopmental disorders resulting from thalamic dysfunction.

Transcriptomic atlas of thalamic nuclei

Project description:We profiled the transcriptome of 22 thalamic nuclei. Nuclei were retrogradely labeled from their forebrain target areas, microdissected and fluorescent cells pooled. Anterograde tracing was used when identification of nuclear boundaries was ambiguous. We found that thalamic nuclei share a common axis of variance closely linked to the mediolateral spatial axis of thalamus. This axis was enriched in functionally relevant genes such as neurotransmitter receptors and ion channels, and was closely linked to functional and morphological properties of the neurons.

Developmental emergence of first- and higher-order thalamic neuron molecular identities

Project description:The thalamus is organized into nuclei that have distinct input and output connectivities with the cortex. While first-order (FO) nuclei – also called core nuclei – relay input from sensory organs on the body surface and project to primary sensory areas, higher-order (HO) nuclei – matrix nuclei – instead receive their driver input from the cortex and project to secondary and associative areas within cortico-thalamo-cortical loops. Input-dependent processes have been shown to play a critical role in the emergence of FO thalamic neuron identity from a ground state HO neuron identity, yet how this identity emerges during development remains unknown. Here, using single-nucleus RNA sequencing of the developing embryonic thalamus we show that FO thalamic identity emerges after HO identity, and that peripheral input is critical for the maturation of excitatory, but not inhibitory FO-type neurons. Our findings reveal that subsets of HO neurons are developmentally co-opted into FO-type neurons, providing a mechanistic framework for the diversification of thalamic neuron types during development and evolution.

DNA methylation alteration and gene expression sigature in brainstem, thalamic, and supratentorial gliomas

Project description:Gliomas arising in the brainstem and thalamus are devastating tumors that are difficult to surgically resect due to their proximity to eloquent brain structures. Here, we performed a comprehesive genomic and epigenomic study, using gene expression and methylation microarrays, to research on th different genomic and epigenetic signatures between brainstem, thalamic, and supratentorial gliomas. Comparison of brainstem, thalamic and supratentorial gliomas

A genetically defined mPFC-thalamic circuit underlies pain chronicity

Project description:Chronic pain is a major health care problem with great social and economic consequences. Although the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) and the thalamus have been implicated in regulating pain, whether and how these regions may involve in pain chronification process have remained largely unknown. Here, we show that Foxp2+ neurons in mPFC, which are corticothalamic (CT) neurons representing the major mPFC output to thalamus, are deactivated in chronic inflammatory pain. Interestingly, prolonged, but not short-term, inactivation of the Foxp2+ neurons in mPFC increases the sensitivity to noxious stimulations. Conversely, chemogenetic activation of this neuronal cluster induces robust antinociceptive effects in both naïve mice and mice with chronic inflammatory pain. Furthermore, we found that the mPFC Foxp2+ neurons project to several thalamic relay nuclei and that activation of the mPFC to the parataenial nucleus of thalamus (PTN) circuit relieves pain. Finally, RNA-seq of the mPFC Foxp2+ neurons revealed that many genes related to neuronal activity are dysregulated in mice with chronic inflammatory pain. Collectively, our studies revealed that Foxp2+ neurons in mPFC that project to thalamus play a critical role in somatosensory processing and pain chronification.

Gene expression data from thalamic regions of MPTP-intoxicated mouse brain by acupuncture

Project description:Acupuncture stimulations at GB34 and LR3 inhibit the reduction of tyrosine hydroxylase in the nigrostriatal dopaminergic neurons in the parkinsonism animal models. Especially, behavioral tests showed that acupuncture stimulations improved the motor dysfunction in a previous study. The thalamus is a crucial area for the motor circuit and has been identified as one of the most markedly damaged areas in Parkinson’s disease (PD), so acupuncture stimulations might also have an effect on the thalamic damage. We investigated gene expression profile changes in the thalamic region of 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-induced parkinsonism models after acupuncture at the acupoints GB34 and LR3 C57BL/6 mice were divided into four experimental groups; ① C: Control, ② M: MPTP-treatment only, ③ MA: MPTP- and acupuncture-treatment at acupoints GB34 and LR3, ④ MNA: MPTP- and acupuncture-treatment at non-acupoints. Total RNA was isolated from two brains' thalamic regions of each experimental group (4 experimental group × 2 samples of each experimental group = total 8 samples).

We then performed gene expression analysis by RNAseq.
