A multiplexed, single-cell sequencing screen identifies compounds that increase neurogenic reprogramming of mammalian Muller glia.

ABSTRACT: Neurodegeneration in the retina of mammals causes permanent loss of vision, due to their lack of regeneration. Some non-mammalian vertebrates show robust regeneration, via the Muller glia (MG), and we have recently made significant progress in stimulating adult mouse MG to regenerate functional neurons by transgenic expression of the proneural transcription factor Ascl1. While these results showed that MG can serve as an endogenous source of neuronal replacement, the efficacy of this process is limited. We designed a small molecule screen using sci-Plex, a method to multiplex up to thousands of single nucleus RNA-seq conditions into a single experiment, to screen a library of 92 compounds, identified, and validated two that promote neurogenesis in vivo. Our results demonstrate that high-throughput single-cell molecular profiling can substantially improve the discovery process for molecules and pathways that can stimulate neural regeneration and further demonstrate the potential for this approach to restore vision in patients with retinal disease.

ASCL1 induces neurogenesis in human Muller glia

Project description:In mammals, loss of retinal cells due to disease or trauma is an irreversible process which can lead to blindness. Interestingly, regeneration of retinal neurons is a well-established process in some non-mammalian vertebrates and is driven by the Muller glia (MG), which are able to re-enter the cell cycle and reprogram into neurogenic progenitors upon retinal injury or disease. Progress has been made to restore this mechanism in mammals to promote retinal regeneration: MG can be stimulated to generate new neurons in vivo in the adult mouse retina after the over-expression of the pro-neural transcription factor Ascl1. In this study, we applied the same strategy to reprogram human MG derived from fetal retina and retinal organoids into neurons. Combining scRNA-seq, scATAC-seq, Immunofluorescence, and electrophysiology we demonstrate that human MG can be reprogrammed into neurogenic cells in vitro.

RNA-seq to investigate the adult mouse Muller glia transcriptome

Project description:These data serve as a reference transcriptomic profile for adult mouse retinal Muller glia. Retinas were dissociated into single cell suspensions and sorted into two fractions: a Muller glia-enriched fraction on the basis of Muller glia-specific tdTomato expression and a second fraction containing the remaining retinal cells that were tdTomato-negative. Both fractions were sequenced.

Transcriptome analysis of the uninjured Muller glia (MG) and MG derived retinal progenitors at 4 day post injured zebrafish retina

Project description:The study was aimed at comparing the transcriptome of MG cells of the retina with the progenitors derived from them after an injury. This information will help in the identification of factors that are responsible for the retinal regeneration. Muller glia were isolated by fluorescent activated cell sorting (FACS) using uninjured retinas from transgenice zebrafish (gfap:gfp) where green florescent protein (GFP) is under the control of the glial fibrillary acidic protein (gfap) promoter. MG-derived retinal progenitors were isolated by FACS at 4 days post retinal injury from 1016 tuba1a:gfp transgenic fish where GFP is driven by the tuba1a promoter which is specifically activated in these progenitors. Total RNA was isolated from these cell populations and subjected to microarray analysis to compare their transcriptomes. Samples were prepared in duplicate.

Cis-Regulatory Accessibility Directs Muller Glial Development and Regenerative Capacity

Project description:Diseases and damage to the retina lead to losses in retinal neurons and eventual visual impairment. Although the mammalian retina has no inherent regenerative capabilities, fish have robust regeneration from Müller glia (MG). Recently, we have shown that driving expression of Ascl1 in adult mouse MG stimulates neurogenesis similar to fish regeneration. The regeneration observed in the mouse is limited in the variety of neurons that can be derived from MG; Ascl1-expressing MG primarily generate bipolar cells. To better understand the limits of MG-based regeneration in mouse retinas, we used ATAC- and RNA-seq to compare newborn progenitors with MG. Our analysis demonstrated striking similarities between MG and progenitors, with losses in regulatory motifs for neurogenesis genes. Young MG were found to have intermediate expression profiles and accessible DNA, which is mirrored in the ability of Ascl1 to direct bipolar neurogenesis in young MG. When comparing what makes bipolar and photoreceptor cells distinct from glial cells, we find that bipolar-specific accessible regions are more frequently linked to bHLH motifs and Ascl1 binding, indicating that Ascl1 preferentially binds to bipolar regions. Overall, our analysis indicates a loss of neurogenic gene expression and motif accessibility during glial maturation that may prevent efficient reprogramming.

Gene expression changes under cyclic mechanical stretch in rat retinal Muller cells

Project description:The retina is often subjected to tractional forces in a variety of conditions, for instance, pathological myopia, proliferative vitreoretinopathy. As the predominant glial element in the sensory retina, Muller cells are responsible for the homeostatic and metabolic support of retinal neurons and active players in virtually all forms of retinal injury and disease. Besides, Muller cells span the entire retinal thickness, extending from the inner to the outer limiting membranes, with cell bodies located in the inner nuclear layer and lateral processes expanding into the plexiform layers of the tissue. Because of this unique morphology, Muller cells can sense even minute changes in the retinal structure because of the mechanical stretching of their long processes or side branches. Thus, itM-bM-^@M-^Ys reasonable to infer that Muller cells also participate in ocular diseases when the retina is overstretched. In this study, we aim to investigate the whole genome regulation of Muller cells under mechanical stretching, which may help in excluding possible molecular mechanisms that would account for many retinal diseases in which the retina is often subjected to mechanical forces. We used microarrays to identify patterns of gene expression changes induced by cyclic mechanical stretching in Muller cells. Rat Muller cells were seeded onto flexible bottom culture plates and subjected to a cyclic stretching regimen of 15% equibiaxial stretching for 1 and 24 h.Muller cells cultured under the same conditions but with no applied mechanical strain were considered as the unstretched control. At each time points (1 and 24 h), three totally independent experiments (3 stretched samples and 3 control samples) were conducted. Muller cells were selected for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. Stretch (S); Control (C)
