COMMD10 is essential for neural plate development during embryogenesis


ABSTRACT: The COMMD (Copper metabolism MURR1 domain containing) family includes ten structurally conserved proteins (COMMD1 to COMMD10) in eukaryotic multicellular organisms which are involved in a diverse array of cellular and physiological processes, including endosomal trafficking, copper homeostasis, and cholesterol metabolism, among others. To understand the role of COMMD10 in embryonic development, we used Commd10Tg(Vav1-icre)A2Kio/J mice, where the Vav1-cre transgene is integrated into an intron of the Commd10 gene, creating a functional knockout of Commd10 in homozygous mice. Breeding of heterozygous mice produced no COMMD10-deficient (Commd10Null) offspring, suggesting that COMMD10 is required for embryogenesis. Analysis of Commd10Null embryos demonstrated that they display stalled development by embryonic day 8.5 (E8.5). Transcriptome analysis revealed that numerous neural crest-specific gene markers had lower expression in mutant versus wild-type (WT) embryos. Specifically, Commd10Null embryos displayed significantly lower expression levels of a number of transcription factors, including a major regulator of the neural crest, Sox10. Moreover, several cytokines/growth factors involved in early embryonic neurogenesis were also lower in mutant embryos. On the other hand, Commd10Null embryos demonstrated higher expression of genes involved in tissue remodeling and regression processes. Taken together, our findings show that Commd10Null embryos die by day E8.5 due to COMMD10-dependent neural crest failure, revealing a new and critical role of COMMD10 in neural development.
