Motile cilia modulate neuronal and astroglial activity in the zebrafish larval brain

ABSTRACT: The brain uses a specialized system to transport cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), consisting of interconnected ventricles lined by motile ciliated ependymal cells. These cells act jointly with CSF secretion and cardiac pressure gradients to regulate CSF dynamics. To date, the link between cilia-mediated CSF flow and brain function is poorly understood. Using zebrafish larvae as a model system, we identify that loss of ciliary motility does not alter progenitor proliferation, brain morphology, or spontaneous neural activity despite leading to an enlarged telencephalic ventricle. We observe altered neuronal responses to photic stimulations in the optic tectum and hindbrain and brain asymmetry defects in the habenula. Finally, we investigate astroglia since they contact CSF and regulate neuronal activity. Our analyses reveal a reduction in astroglial calcium signals during both spontaneous and light-evoked activity. Our findings highlight a role of motile cilia in regulating brain physiology through the modulation of neural and astroglial networks.

The Ciliary GTPase ARL13B maintains Ductule Physiology through the Primary and Motile Cilia in Male Reproduction

Project description:ARL13B is a small regulatory GTPase that controls ciliary membrane composition in both motile cilia and non-motile primary cilia. In this study, we investigated the role of ARL13B in the efferent ductules, tubules of the male reproductive tract essential to male fertility in which primary and motile cilia co-exist. We used a genetically engineered mouse model to deleteArl13bin efferent ductule epithelial cells, resulting in compromised primary and motile cilia architecture and functions. This deletion led to disturbances in reabsorptive/secretory processes and triggered an inflammatory response. The observed male reproductive phenotype showed significant variability linked to partial infertility, highlighting the importance of ARL13B in maintaining a proper physiological balance in these small ducts. These results emphasize the dual role of both motile and primary cilia functions in regulating efferent duct homeostasis, offering deeper insights into how cilia related diseases affect the male reproductive system.

Ciliogenesis defects after neurulation impact brain development and neuronal activity in larval zebrafish

Project description:Cilia are slender, hair-like structures extending from cell surfaces and playing essential roles in diverse physiological processes. Within the nervous system, primary cilia contribute to signaling and sensory perception, while motile cilia facilitate cerebrospinal fluid flow. Here, we investigated the impact of ciliary loss on neural circuit development using a zebrafish line displaying ciliogenesis defects. We found that cilia defects after neurulation affects neurogenesis and brain morphology, especially in the cerebellum, and lead to altered gene expression profiles. Using whole brain calcium imaging, we measured reduced light-evoked and spontaneous neuronal activity in all brain regions. By shedding light on the intricate role of cilia in neural circuit formation and function in the zebrafish, our work highlights their evolutionary conserved role in the brain and set the stage for future analysis of ciliopathy models.

Schizophrenia-related microdeletion causes progressive brain ventricle enlargement through microRNA-dependent deceleration of motile cilia beating

Project description:Progressive ventricular enlargement is one of the most reproducible and recognizable structural abnormalities in schizophrenia, and is associated with more severe symptoms and poorer clinical outcome. The mechanisms of ventricular enlargement in schizophrenia is unknown. We identified that progressive ventricular enlargement is associated with deceleration of motile cilia beating in ependymal cells lining ventricular walls in murine models of schizophrenia-associated 22q11 deletion syndrome (22q11DS). The cilia beating deficit is caused by an aberrant elevation of Drd1, which is highly enriched in the motile cilia. Haploinsufficiency of the microRNA-processing gene Dgcr8 is responsible for the Drd1 elevation in ependymal cells of 22q11DS mice, and is mediated by reduction of Drd1-targeting microRNAs miR-674-3p and miR-382-3p. Replenishing miR-674-3p or miR-382-3p in 22q11DS mice rescued the motile cilia beating abnormalities and normalized the ventricular size. Knockdown of these microRNA mimicked cilia beating and ventricular deficits. Ventricular enlargement was also caused by Crispr/cas9-mediated deletion of the Drd1 seed site for miR-674-3p/miR-382-3p. This suggests that Dgcr8-miR-674-3p/miR-382-3p-Drd1–dependent disruption of cilia motility in ependymal cells is a pathogenic event underlying schizophrenia-associated ventricular enlargement.

Identification of the FTO-FOXJ1 axis as a conserved regulatory module of embryonic and homeostatic motile ciliogenesis

Project description:Adenosine N6-methylation (m6A) is one of the most pervasive mRNA modifications, and yet the physiological significance of m6A removal (demethylation) remains elusive. Here we report the m6A demethylase FTO functions as a conserved regulator of motile ciliogenesis. Mechanistically, FTO demethylates and thereby stabilizes the mRNA encoding the master ciliary transcription factor FOXJ1. Depletion of Fto in Xenopus laevis embryos caused widespread motile cilia defects, and Foxj1 was identified as one of the major phenocritical targets. In primary human airway epithelium, FTO depletion also led to FOXJ1 mRNA destabilization and a severe loss of ciliated cells with an increase of neighboring goblet cells. Consistently, Fto knockout mice showed strong asthma-like phenotypes upon allergen challenge owing to defective ciliated cells in the airway epithelium. Altogether, our study reveals a conserved role of the FTO-FOXJ1 axis in embryonic and homeostatic motile ciliogenesis.

ARL3 GTPases facilitate ODA16 unloading from IFT in motile cilia

Project description:Eukaryotic cilia and flagella are essential for cell motility and sensory functions. Their biogenesis and maintenance rely on the intraflagellar transport (IFT). Several cargo adapters have been identified to aid IFT cargo transport, but how ciliary cargos are discharged from IFT remains largely unknown. During our explorations of small GTPases ARL13 and ARL3 in Trypanosoma brucei, we found that ODA16, a known IFT cargo adapter found exclusively in motile cilia, is a specific effector of ARL3. To investigate how TbARL3A and TbARL3C regulate TbODA16, we performed proximity-dependent biotin identification (BioID) and mass spectrometry analyses for TbODA16 in the presence or absence of TbARL3A and TbARL3C.

Motility gene expression in L. ruminis ATCC25644 vs L. ruminis ATCC27782 during motile and non-motile growth in MRS media

Project description:The genus Lactobacillus contains over 100 different species that were traditionally considered to be uniformly non-motile. However, at least twelve motile species are known to exist in the L. salivarius clade of this genus. Of these, Lactobacillus rumnis is the only motile species that is also autochthonous to the mammalian gastrointestinal tract. The genomes of two L. ruminis strains, ATCC25644 (human isolate, non-motile) and ATCC27782 (bovine isolate, motile) were sequenced and annotated to identify the genes responsible for flagellum biogenesis and chemotaxis in this species. Transcriptome analysis revealed that motility genes were transcribed at a significantly higher level in motile L. ruminis ATCC27782 than in non-motile ATCC25644 during the motile growth phase.
