Joubert Syndrome-derived induced pluripotent stem cells show altered neuronal differentiation in vitro

ABSTRACT: Joubert syndrome (JS) is a recessively inherited congenital ataxia characterized by hypotonia, psychomotor delay, abnormal ocular movements, intellectual disability and a peculiar cerebellar and brainstem malformation, the ’molar tooth sign’. Over 40 causative genes have been reported, all encoding for proteins implicated in the structure or functioning of the primary cilium, a subcellular organelle widely present in embryonic and adult tissues. In this paper we developed an in vitro neuronal differentiation model using patient-derived induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), to evaluate possible neurodevelopmental defects in JS. To this end, iPSCs from four JS patients harboring mutations in distinct JS genes (AHI1, CPLANE1, TMEM67 and CC2D2A) were differentiated alongside healthy control cells to obtain mid-hindbrain precursors and cerebellar granule cells. Differentiation was monitored over 31 days through the detection of lineage-specific marker expression by qRT-PCR, immunofluorescence, and transcriptomics analysis. All JS patient-derived iPSCs, regardless of the mutant gene, showed a similar impairment to differentiate into mid-hindbrain and cerebellar granule cells when compared to healthy controls. In addition, analysis of primary cilium count and morphology showed notable ciliary defects in all differentiating JS patient-derived iPSCs compared to controls. These results confirm that patient-derived iPSCs are an accessible and relevant in vitro model to analyze cellular phenotypes connected to the presence of JS gene mutations in a neuronal context.

Role of Tet1 and Tet3 genes and Chromatin Remodeling in Cerebellar Circuit Formation [gene expression]

Project description:Transcriptome analysis of mRNA samples purified from developing cerebellar granule cells and ES cell-derived granule cells using translating ribosome affinity purification (TRAP) method. Although mechanisms underlying early steps in cerebellar development are known, evidence is lacking on genetic and epigenetic changes during the establishment of the synaptic circuitry. Using metagene analysis, we report pivotal changes in multiple reactomes of epigenetic pathway genes in cerebellar granule cells (GCs) during circuit formation. During this stage, Tet genes are up-regulated and vitamin C activation of Tet enzymes increases the levels of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) at exon start sites of up-regulated genes, notably axon guidance genes and ion channel genes. Knockdown of Tet1 and Tet3 by RNA interference in ex vivo cerebellar slice cultures inhibits dendritic arborization of developing GCs, a critical step in circuit formation. These findings demonstrate a role for Tet genes and chromatin remodeling genes in the formation of cerebellar circuitry. We analyzed gene expression of cerebellar granule cells and ES cell-derived granule cells using the Affymetrix mouse gene 1.0 ST platform. Array data was processed by metagene analysis which was developed by the Broad Institute.

Transcriptomic characterization of a mixed population of pluripotent stem cell derived cerebellar neuron-like progenitors

Project description:We set out to ascertain whether it was possible to use PSCs (pluripotent stem cells) to generate a mix of neuronal cell types resembling those in the cerebellum, most notably Purkinje and granule cells. Several groups have previously demonstrated generation of cerebellar-like neuronal cells from murine ESCs (embryonic stem cells), and more recently the Erceg group achieved similar success using human PSCs. Using principles from these studies we successfully induced expression of mid–hindbrain markers EN1 & GBX2 and later MATH1 (a transcription factor which marks rhombic lip/granule cell progenitors) in a mixed neuronal population derived from hPSCs. Further, we show that it is possible to expand these progenitors to produce spontaneously active neuronal cells with morphological similarities to neuronal cells at specific stages of cerebellar development. Based on morphology, electrophysiology, immunohistochemistry and transcriptomic analysis we demonstrate that these cells express behavior, markers and molecular signatures consistent with distinct epochs of cerebellar development spanning from the late embryonic to early postnatal periods. This study describes an in vitro model that provides insight into the early events that drive the formation of the human cerebellum with support from a high-resolution survey of the trancriptomic landscape, including expression of non-coding RNAs and specific transcript isoforms. The generated datasets and accompanying characterization are a valuable resource for researchers to formulate and test hypotheses regarding the molecular players that are involved in the formation of the cerebellum

Gorlin syndrome-derived induced pluripotent stem cells are hypersensitive to Hedgehog-mediated osteogenic induction

Project description:Gorlin syndrome is an autosomal dominant inherited syndrome that predisposes a patient to the formation of basal cell carcinomas, odontogenic keratocysts, and skeletal anomalies. Patched-1 (PTCH1) is a Hedgehog (Hh) receptor that acts as a negative regulator of constitutive Hh signaling by preventing the G protein-coupled receptor Smoothened from entering the cilium in the absence of Hh protein binding. We generated iPSCs from four unrelated Gorlin syndrome patients with loss-of-function mutations in PTCH1 using the Sendai virus vector (SeVdp(KOSM)302). The patient-derived iPSCs exhibited basic iPSC features, including stem cell marker expression, totipotency, and the ability to form teratomas. To check the Patient-derived iPSCs mimic patinet phenotype, We performted osteoblast differentiation and checked mRNA expression by hedgehog PCR array systems.

Human iPSC-derived organoids recapitulate development of the cerebellum.

Project description:Single-cell profiling of stem cell-derived cerebellar organoids revealed transcriptionally-discrete populations encompassing the major cerebellar neuronal cell types including granule cells, roof plate, choroid plexus, Bergmann glia, Purkinje cells and glutamatergic deep cerebellar nuclei. Cellular identity and maturity were confirmed through comparison to an atlas of developing murine cerebellar cell types.
