A single cell transcriptomic map of the developing Atoh1-lineage uncovers neural fate decisions and neuronal diversity in the hindbrain.[RNA-Seq]

ABSTRACT: Proneural transcription factors set up the molecular cascade to orchestrate neuronal diversity. One such transcription factor, Atoh1, gives rise to cerebellar excitatory neurons and over 30 distinct nuclei in the brainstem critical for hearing, breathing, and balance. Although the neurons that arise from the Atoh1-lineage have been qualitatively described, the transcriptional programs that drive their fate decisions and the full extent of their diversity remain unknown. Here, we analyzed single-cell RNA-sequencing and ATOH1 DNA binding in Atoh1-lineage neurons of the developing mouse hindbrain. This high-resolution dataset revealed new markers for specific brainstem nuclei and demonstrated transcriptionally heterogeneous progenitors require ATOH1 for proper migration. Moreover, we identified a sizable proliferating unipolar brush cell progenitor in the mouse Atoh1-lineage that was previously described as the origin of one medulloblastoma subtype. Collectively, our data reveal unprecedented insight into the developing mouse hindbrain and provide markers for functional assessment of less studied neuronal populations.

Single-nucleus sequencing data from developing and adult mouse olivocochlear neurons

Project description:Transcriptional diversity of mouse olivocochlear neurons (OCNs) was examined using single-nucleus sequencing of brainstem cholinergic neurons at P1, P5, and P26-P28. This dataset includes multiple brainstem cell types, including OCNs and several other populations of cranial motor neurons.

Atoh1 drives the heterogeneity of the pontine nuclei neurons and promotes their differentiation

Project description:Pontine nuclei (PN) neurons mediate the communication between the cerebral cortex and the cerebellum to refine skilled motor functions. Prior studies have shown that PN neurons fall into two subtypes based on their anatomic location and region-specific connectivity, but the extent of their heterogeneity and its molecular drivers remain unknown. Atoh1 encodes a transcription factor that is expressed in the PN precursors. We previously showed that partial loss-of-function of Atoh1 in mice results in delayed PN development and impaired motor learning. In this study, we performed single-cell RNA sequencing to elucidate the cell-state-specific functions of Atoh1 during PN development and discovered that Atoh1 regulates cell cycle exit, differentiation, migration, and survival of the PN neurons. Importantly, our data revealed six previously not known PN subtypes that are molecularly and spatially distinct. Interestingly, we found the PN subtypes exhibit differential vulnerability to partial loss of Atoh1 function, providing insights into the prominence of PN phenotypes in patients with ATOH1 missense mutations.

Gene expression analysis in the Brainstem of Vglut2:Ndufs4cKO mice

Project description:Leigh Syndrome is characterized by symmetrical brain lesions and neuroinflammation in select nuclei, predominantly brainstem and/or basal ganglia. Accordingly, Ndufs4-deficient mice present overt lesions in brainstem, olfactory bulb, and basal ganglia. To define the contribution of Ndufs4 deficiency in excitatory neurons to the overall neuroinflammatory phenotype, we performed Gene expression analysis in the brainstem of mice with specific deletion of Ndufs4 in Vglut2-expressing neurons (Vglut2:Ndufs4cKO mice). This analysis allowed us to further define the inflammatory phenotype present in the brainstem of Vglut2:Ndufs4cKO mice.

Expression data from early and late born Atoh1 lineages within the E14.5 rhombomere 1 and isthmus

Project description:Following neural tube closure at around E9.5, the rhombic lip within the rhombomere 1/isthmus region ("upper rhombic lip") produces a sequence of neuronal lineages that populate the brainstem and cerebellum. The transcription factor Atoh1 (Math1) is required for this specialized neurogenesis, although the genetic programs that delineate the temporal cell fate changes downstream of Atoh1 are not well characterized. We examined the gene expresion changes that take place within Atoh1 lineages We purified early (E10.5) and late (E13.5) born Atoh1 expressing cells from E14.5 embryos using a transgenic labeling strategy, and analyzed differences in gene expression across the two populations using the microarray data shown below.

Brainstem organoids from human pluripotent stem cells contain neural crest population

Project description:Brainstem controls heartbeat, blood pressure and respiration which are vital for life, therefore, damage to brainstem can be lethal. Brain organoids derived from human pluripotent stem cells recapitulate the course of human brain development and are expected to be useful for medical research on central nervous system disorders. However, existing organoid models have limitations, hampering the elucidation of diseases affecting specific components of the brain. Here, we developed a method to generate human brainstem organoids (hBSOs), containing neural crest stem cells as well as midbrain/hindbrain progenitors, noradrenergic and cholinergic neurons, and dopaminergic neurons, demonstrated by specific electrophysiological signatures. Single-cell RNA-sequence analysis, together with proteomics and electrophysiology further revealed that the cellular population in the organoids is similar to that of the human brainstem and neural crest, which makes it possible to make use of the hBSOs for modeling and grafting for transplantation.

Generation of caudal-type serotonin neurons and hindbrain fate organoids from hPSCs

Project description:Serotonin (5-HT) neurons, the major components of the raphe nuclei, arise from ventral hindbrain progenitors. Based on the anatomical location and axonal projection, 5-HT neurons are coarsely divided into rostral and caudal groups. Here, we propose a novel strategy to generate hindbrain 5-HT neurons from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs), which involves the formation of ventral-type neural progenitor cells (NPCs) and stimulation of the hindbrain 5-HT neural development. A caudalizing agent, retinoid acid (RA), was used to direct the cells into the hindbrain cell fate. Approximately 30-40% of hPSCs successfully developed into 5-HT-expressing neurons using our protocol, with the majority acquiring a caudal rhombomere identity (r5-8). We further modified our monolayer differentiation system to generate 5-HT neuron-enriched hindbrain-like organoids. We have also suggested downstream applications of our 5-HT monolayer and organoid cultures to study neuronal response to gut microbiota. Our methodology could become a powerful tool for future studies related to 5-HT neurotransmission.

Colorectal Cancer Organoid Proteomics

Project description:Cyclin Dependent Kinases CDK8 and CDK19 (Mediator kinase) are regulatory components of the Mediator complex, a highly conserved complex that fine tunes transcriptional output. While Mediator kinase has been implicated in the transcriptional control of key pathways necessary for development and growth, its function in vivo has not been well described. Herein, we report the consequences of complete ablation of both Cdk8/19 on tissue homeostasis. We show that intestinal epithelial specific deletion of Mediator kinase leads to a distinct defect in secretory progenitor differentiation with broad loss of the intestinal secretory cell types. Using a phospho-proteogenomic approach, we show that the Cdk8/19 kinase module interacts with and phosphorylates components of the chromatin remodeling complex Swi/Snf in intestinal epithelial cells. Genomic localisation of Swi/Snf and Mediator shows Cdk8/19-dependent genomic binding at distinct super-enhancer loci within key lineage specification genes, including the master regulator of secretory differentiation ATOH1. Using CRISPRi/CRISPRa, we identify a distinct Mediator-Swi/Snf bound enhancer element that is necessary and sufficient for ATOH1 expression in a Mediator-kinase dependent manner. As such, these studies uncover a newly described transcriptional mechanism of ATOH1-dependent intestinal cell specification that is dependent on the coordinated interaction of the chromatin remodeling complex Swi/Snf and Mediator complex.
