Gene expression analysis of WT vs Wdr47 deficient primary neurons

ABSTRACT: Corpus callosum (CC) is the largest interhemispheric connection that is largely formed by the axons of layer 2/3 callosal projection neurons (CPNs) through a series of tightly regulated cellular events.Defects in any of those steps may prevent the proper development of the corpus callosum resulting in a spectrum of disorders collectively referred to as corpus callosum dysgenesis (CCD). Here, we report 5 patients carrying bi-allelic variants in WDR47 presenting CCD together with microcephaly. Using a combination of in vitro and in vivo mouse models and complementation assays, we show that independently from its previously identified functions in neuronal migration and neurite extension, Wdr47 is required for survival of callosal neurons by contributing to the maintenance of mitochondrial and microtubule homeostasis. We further provide evidence that severity of the CCD phenotype is determined by the degree of the loss of function caused by the variants. Taken together, we identify WDR47 as a novel causative gene for corpus callosum abnormalities.

Chromatin remodeler Arid1a regulates subplate neuron identity and wiring of cortical connectivity

Project description:Loss-of-function mutations in chromatin remodeler gene ARID1A are a cause of Coffin-Siris syndrome, a developmental disorder characterized by dysgenesis of corpus callosum. Here, we characterize Arid1a function during cortical development and find unexpectedly selective roles for Arid1a in subplate neurons. Subplate neurons (SPNs), strategically positioned at the interface of cortical grey and white matter, orchestrate multiple developmental processes indispensable for neural circuit wiring. We find that pan-cortical deletion of Arid1a leads to extensive mistargeting of intracortical axons and agenesis of corpus callosum. Sparse Arid1a deletion, however, does not autonomously misroute callosal axons, implicating non-cell autonomous Arid1a functions in axon guidance. Supporting this possibility, the ascending axons of thalamocortical neurons, which are not autonomously affected by cortical Arid1a deletion, are also disrupted in their pathfinding into cortex and innervation of whisker barrels. Coincident with these miswiring phenotypes, which are reminiscent of subplate ablation, we unbiasedly find a selective loss of SPN gene expression following Arid1a deletion. In addition, multiple characteristics of SPNs crucial to their wiring functions, including subplate organization, subplate-thalamocortical axon co-fasciculation (“handshake”), and extracellular matrix, are severely disrupted. To empirically test Arid1a sufficiency in subplate, we generate a cortical plate deletion of Arid1a that spares SPNs. In this model, subplate Arid1a expression is sufficient for subplate-thalamocortical axon co-fasciculation and extracellular matrix assembly. Consistent with these wiring functions, subplate Arid1a sufficiently enables normal callosum formation, thalamocortical axon targeting, and whisker barrel development. Thus, Arid1a is a multifunctional regulator of subplate-dependent guidance mechanisms essential to cortical circuit wiring.

Proteome dynamics during postnatal mouse corpus callosum development

Project description:Formation of cortical connections requires the precise coordination of several discrete stages. This is particularly significant with regard to the corpus callosum, the largest white matter structure bridging both cerebral hemispheres, whose development undergoes several dynamic stages including the crossing of axon projections, the elimination of exuberant projections, and the myelination of established tracts. To comprehensively characterize the molecular events in this dynamic process, we set to determine the distinct temporal expression of proteins regulating the formation of the corpus callosum and their respective developmental functions. Mass spectrometry-based proteomic profiling was performed on early postnatal mouse corpus callosi, for which limited evidence has been obtained previously, using stable isotope of labeled amino acids in mammals (SILAM). The analyzed corpus callosi had distinct proteomic profiles depending on age, indicating rapid progression of specific molecular events during this period. The proteomic expression profiles were then segregated into five separate protein clusters, each with distinct trajectories relevant to their intended developmental functions. Our analysis both confirms many previously-identified proteins in aspects of corpus callosum development, and identifies new candidates in understudied areas of development including callosal axon refinement. We present a valuable resource for identifying new proteins integral to corpus callosum development that will provide new insights into the development and diseases afflicting this structure.

Unique microglia expression profile in developing white matter.

Project description:Recently we demonstrated that amoeboid microglia in white matter regions are essential for proper oligodendrocyte homeostasis and myelinogenesis in the first postnatal week of mice. Amoeboid microglia in the corpus callosum change their activation profile already within few days after postnatal day (P)7 and microglia of the cerebellum show similar features to callosal microglia. Here we expanded our previous transcriptional analysis and performed bulk RNA sequencing of microglia during development in a detailed way in P7, P10 and P42 microglia from corpus callosum, cortex and cerebellum. The goal of this study was to identify a specific gene profile for both, white matter and grey matter microglia during development.

scRNA sequencing uncovers a TCF4-dependent transcription factor network regulating commissure development in mouse

Project description:The bHLH transcription factor TCF4 plays an important role in neurodevelopment highlighted by its association with schizophrenia and Pitt-Hopkins-Syndrome. Here we demonstrate that TCF4 function is essential for forebrain commissure formation in mice. Single-cell RNA sequencing of TCF4 knockout neocortices revealed dysregulation of multiple gene regulatory networks. We provide evidence that TCF4 controls the underlying regulons by interaction with the regulators, transcription factors surprisingly not belonging to the known canonical interactors of the bHLH family. In-depth analysis of the interplay between TCF4 and SOX11 showed a synergistic effect on commissural formation. Mice haploinsufficient for Sox11 or Tcf4 showed no commissural phenotype or only a mild callosal shortening, respectively, whereas Tcf4/Sox11 double haploinsufficient mice display aggravated corpus callosum dysgenesis and anterior commissure agenesis. Moreover, TCF4 and SOX11 synergistically induce the expression of common target genes. Collectively, these findings illuminate how TCF4 dysregulation influences brain development and contributes to neurodevelopmental diseases.

Gene expression profile for L1CAM knockdown in esophageal squamous carcinoma cell

Project description:The protein encoded by this gene is an axonal glycoprotein belonging to the immunoglobulin supergene family. The ectodomain, consisting of several immunoglobulin-like domains and fibronectin-like repeats (type III), is linked via a single transmembrane sequence to a conserved cytoplasmic domain. This cell adhesion molecule plays an important role in nervous system development, including neuronal migration and differentiation. Mutations in the gene cause X-linked neurological syndromes known as CRASH (corpus callosum hypoplasia, retardation, aphasia, spastic paraplegia and hydrocephalus). Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants, some of which include an alternate exon that is considered to be specific to neurons.

DE NOVO 3q13.13q21.2 INTERSTITIAL DELETION AND PATERNAL 12p13.3 MICRODELETION IN A FETUS WITH DYSPLASIA OF THE CORPUS CALLOSUM AND VENTRICULOMEGALY

Project description:The 3q-syndrome is a well-known genetic condition caused by interstitial deletion in the long arm of chromosome 3. The phenotype of this syndrome is variable and the great variability in the extent of these deletions lead to a wide spectrum of clinical manifestations. Terminal 12p deletion represents one of the rarest subtelomeric imbalance, patients with distal monosomy 12p present different phenotypes ranging from muscular hypotonia to autism spectrum disorders. Here we report a prenatal diagnosis of a male fetus presenting ultrasounds evidence of corpus callosum dysplasia and ventriculomegaly showing a 3q13q21.2 deletion and a 12p13.33 microdeletion paternally inherited. Among several features previously attributed to the terminal deletion of 3q, corpus callosum dysplasia and ventriculomegaly has rarely been reported together. As the 12p13.33 microdeletion in the father was associated only to muscular hypotonia and joint laxity, involvement of terminal 12p deletions in fetus clinical features was not possible to verify in prenatal period. This report may provide a reference for prenatal diagnosis and genetic counseling in patients who have prenatal diagnosis of 3q13q21.2 deletions and 12p13.33 microdeletion.

Fibrinogen promotes autoimmunity and demyelination via chemokine release and antigen presentation [Mm]

Project description:Determination of the mechanism by which fibrinogen, a central blood coagulation protein drives immunological responses targeted to the CNS. Results identify the factors involved in the regulation and provide mechanistic basis. We subjected fibrinogen-injected corpus callosum to microarray to determine the genes involved in innate and adaptive immune responses by fibrinogen deposited in the CNS after blood-brain barrier disruption. Corpus callosum tissues were isolated from mice received stereotactic injection of fibrinogen or ACSF at 12 hr. Tissues were subjected for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymatrix microarrays. Two ACSF and two fibrinogen samples were generated.
