Projection-TAGs enable multiplex projection tracing and multi-modal profiling of projection neurons

ABSTRACT: Single-cell multiomic techniques have sparked immense interest in developing a comprehensive multi-modal map of diverse neuronal cell types and their brain-wide projections. However, investigating the complex wiring diagram, spatial organization, transcriptional, and epigenetic landscapes of brain-wide projection neurons is hampered by the lack of efficient and easily adoptable tools. Here we introduce Projection-TAGs, a retrograde AAV platform that allows multiplex tagging of projection neurons using RNA barcodes. By using Projection-TAGs, we performed multiplex projection tracing of the mouse cortex and high-throughput single-cell profiling of the transcriptional and epigenetic landscapes of the cortical projection neurons. Projection-TAGs can be leveraged to obtain a snapshot of activity-dependent recruitment of distinct projection neurons and their molecular features in the context of a specific stimulus. Given its flexibility, usability, and compatibility, we envision that Projection-TAGs can be readily applied to build a comprehensive multi-modal map of brain neuronal cell types and their projections.

Epigenomic Diversity of Cortical Projection Neurons in the Mouse Brain

Project description:Neuronal cell types are classically defined by their molecular properties, anatomy, and functions. While recent advances in single-cell genomics have led to high-resolution molecular characterization of cell type diversity in the brain, neuronal cell types are often studied out of the context of their anatomical properties. To better understand the relationship between molecular and anatomical features defining cortical neurons, we developed Epi-Retro-Seq, a method that combined retrograde labeling with single-nucleus DNA methylation sequencing to link epigenomic properties of cell types to neuronal projections. We profiled 16,971 single neocortical neurons from 63 cortico-cortical and cortico-subcortical long-distance projections. Our results revealed unique epigenetic signatures of projection neurons that correspond to their laminar and regional location and projection patterns. The methylomes of 16,971 mouse neocortical neurons from 63 cortico-cortical (CC) and cortico-subcortical long-distance projections were analyzed using Epi-Retro-Seq, a method that combined retrograde tracing and single nucleus methylome sequencing.

High-throughput mapping of single-neuron projection and molecular features by retrograde barcoded labelling [scRNA-seq]

Project description:Deciphering patterns of connectivity between neurons in the mammalian brain is a critical step toward understanding brain function. Conventional imaging based neuroanatomical tracing methods identify area-to-area or sparse neuron-to-neuron connectivity patterns, but with extremely limited throughput. Recently developed barcode-based connectomics methods can efficiently map large numbers of single-neuron projections, but linking these data to single-cell transcriptomics remains a challenge. Here, we established a retro-AAV barcode-based multiplexed tracing method called MERGE-seq (Multiplexed projection neuRons retroGrade barcodE sequencing), which is capable of simultaneously characterizing the projectome and transcriptome at the single neuron level. We uncovered dedicated and collateral projection patterns of ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC) neurons to five downstream targets (AI, DMS, BLA, MD and LH). We found that projection-defined vmPFC neurons are molecularly heterogeneous, which are composed of different neuronal subtypes. We further identified transcriptional signatures of various dedicated and bifurcated vmPFC neurons, and verified Pou3f1 as the marker gene of neurons sending collateral axons to DMS and LH. Finally, we fitted our single-neuron connectome/transcriptome data into a machine learning-based model and revealed groups of genes that were predictive of certain projection pattern. In summary, we have developed a new multiplexed technique whose paired connectome and gene expression data can help reveal organizational principles that form neural circuits and process information.

Transcription profiling of mouse FACS-purified cortical projection neurons using Affymetrix 430 2.0 microarrays

Project description:3 subtypes of cortical projection neurons were purified by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) at 4 different stages of development from mouse cortex. A detailed description of the data set is described in Arlotta, P et al (2005) and Molyneaux, BJ et al (2009). The hybridization cocktails used here were originally applied to the Affymetrix mouse 430A arrays and submitted as GEO accession number GSE2039. The same hybridization cocktails were then applied to the Affymetrix mouse 430 2.0 arrays, and those data are contained in this series. Experiment Overall Design: Three subtypes of cortical neurons were purified by FACS at multiple stages of mouse brain development. The neuron subtypes are: corticospinal motor neurons (CSMN), callosal projection neurons (CPN), and corticotectal projection neurons (CTPN). The stages of development included embryonic day 18 (E18), postnatal day 3 (P3), postnatal day 6 (P6), and postnatal day 14 (P14). CSMN and CPN were analyzed at all four stages, while CTPN were only analyzed at P14. The replicates included in the data set are all true biological replicates with independent sample collection for each.

Modular organization of mouse prefrontal cortex subnetwork revealed by spatial single-cell multi-omic analysis of SPIEDER-Seq

Project description:Deciphering the connectome, transcriptome and spatial-omics integrated multi-modal brain atlas and the underlying organization principles remains a great challenge. We developed a cost-effective Single-cell Projectome-transcriptome In situ Deciphering Sequencing (SPIDER-Seq) technique by combining viral barcoding tracing with single-cell sequencing and spatial-omics. This empowers us to delineate a comprehensive integrated single-cell spatial molecular, cellular and projectomic atlas of mouse prefrontal cortex (PFC). The projectomic and transcriptomic cell clusters display distinct modular organization principles, but are coordinately configured in the PFC. The projection neurons gradiently occupied different territories in the PFC aligning with their wiring patterns. Importantly, they show higher co-projection probability to the downstream nuclei with reciprocal circuit connections. Moreover, we integrated projectomic atlas with their distinct spectrum of neurotransmitter/neuropeptide and the receptors-related gene profiles and depicted PFC neural signal transmission network. By which, we uncovered potential mechanisms underlying the complexity and specificity of neural transmission. Finally, we predicted neuron projections with high accuracy by combining gene profiles and spatial information via machine learning. This study facilitates our understanding of brain multi-modal network and neural computation.

Construction of human 3D striato nigral circuitoids to recapitulate medium spiny neuronal projection defects in Huntington disease

Project description:Striato nigral circuit is composed of medium spiny neuronal projections that were mainly sent from striatum to midbrain substantial nigra (SN), which is essential for regulating motor behaviors. Dysfunction of striato-nigral circuitry may cause a series of motor disabilities which are associated with neurodegenerative disorders, such as Huntington disease (HD). Although the etiology of HD is known as abnormally expanded CAG repeats of the huntingtin gene (HTT), treatment of HD remains tremendous challenges. One possible reason is lack of effective HD model which resembles striato nigral circuitry deficits for the pharmacology studies. Here we first differentiate striatum-like organoids from human pluripotent stem cells, containing functional medium spiny neurons (MSN). We then generated 3D striato nigral circuitoids by assembling striatum-like organoids with midbrain substantial nigra like organoids. With AVV hSYN GFP viral tracing, the extensive MSN projections from striatum to SN are established, which form synaptic connection with dopaminergic neurons and showed the electronic field potentials by labeling striatum like organoids with optogenetic virus. Furthermore, this striato nigral circuitoids exhibited improved calcium activity than individual striatal organoids. Importantly, we further demonstrated the reciprocal projection defects of the HD iPSC derived circuitoids, which could be reversed with the treatment of brain derived nerve factors. Altogether, the striato nigral circuitoids could be used for identifying MSN projection defects, which would be applied as a potential drug test platform for HD.

The kinesin Kif21b regulates radial migration of cortical projection neurons through a non-canonical function on actin cytoskeleton.

Project description:Completion of neuronal migration is critical for brain development. Kif21b is a plus-end directed kinesin motor protein that promotes intracellular transport and controls microtubule dynamics in neurons. Here we report a physiological function of Kif21b during radial migration of projection neurons in the mouse developing cortex. In vivo analysis in mouse and live imaging on cultured slices demonstrate that Kif21b regulates the radial glia-guided locomotion of new-born neurons independently of its motility on microtubules. Unexpectedly we show that Kif21b directly binds and regulates the actin cytoskeleton both in vitro and in vivo in migratory neurons. We establish that Kif21b-mediated regulation of actin cytoskeleton dynamics influences branching and nucleokinesis during neuronal locomotion. Altogether, our results reveal atypical roles of Kif21b on the actin cytoskeleton during migration of cortical projection neurons
