Cell-type based analysis of microRNA profiles in the mouse brain

ABSTRACT: MicroRNAs (miRNA) are implicated in brain development and function but the underlying mechanisms have been difficult to study in part due to cellular heterogeneity in neural circuits. To systematically analyze miRNA expression in neurons, we have established a miRNA tagging and affinity purification (miRAP) method that is targeted to cell types through the Cre-loxP binary system in mice. Our studies of the neocortex and cerebellum reveal the expression of a large fraction of known miRNAs with distinct profiles in glutamatergic and GABAergic neurons, and subtypes of GABAergic neurons. We further detected putative novel miRNAs, tissue or cell type-specific strand selection of miRNAs, and miRNA editing. Our method thus will facilitate a systematic analysis of miRNA expression and regulation in specific neuron types in the context of neuronal development, physiology, plasticity, pathology and disease models, and is generally applicable to other cell types and tissues.

Epigenomic Signatures of Neuronal Diversity in the Mammalian Brain

Project description:We developed an affinity purification approach to isolate tagged nuclei in mice (similar to INTACT; [Deal R.B. and Henikoff S. A simple method for gene expression and chromatin profiling of individual cell types within a tissue. Dev. Cell 18,1030-1040. (2010)]) and used it to characterize genome-wide patterns of transcription, DNA methylation, and chromatin accessibility in 3 major neuron classes of the neocortex (excitatory pyramidal neurons, parvalbumin (PV)-positive GABAergic interneurons, and vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP)-positive GABAergic interneurons). By combining cell purification and integrative analysis, our findings relate the phenotypic and functional complexity of neocortical neurons to their underlying transcriptional and epigenetic diversity.

Single-nuclei RNA sequencing of HVC and RA in zebra finches

Project description:The evolution of the six-layered neocortex is often credited with an increased capacity for complex behaviors and cognition in humans and other mammals. However, birds, despite lacking a laminated neocortex, display complex and non-instinctual behaviors including vocal learning, tool use, and problem-solving1,2. The evolution of brain circuits and cell-types supporting advanced behavioral repertoires remains poorly understood. Here in songbirds, we use single-cell RNA-sequencing to characterize the molecular identities of cells in the song motor pathway, a pallial circuit with function and connectivity that has been likened to the mammalian neocortex1,2. We find that each song region contains different glutamatergic excitatory projection neurons but similar sets of GABAergic inhibitory interneurons, similar to patterns of neuronal diversity in mammals and reptiles3,4. Song motor pathway glutamatergic neurons have gene expression patterns similar to those described in neocortical projection neurons, but at the level of transcription factor expression, display stronger similarity to neurons in the ventral pallium. We observed multiple GABAergic neuron classes that are conserved across amniotes, yet the most abundant class strongly resembles a cell-class that in mammals is not found in the neocortex but is present in non-neocortical pallial regions3,4. Thus, although pallial song-control regions contain neurons with similar molecular profiles to neocortical neurons, these pallial areas have a regional identity distinct from neocortex, indicating that complex behaviors such as vocal learning have evolved through the use of different brain circuits under similar functional constraints.

Single-cell delineation of lineage and genetic identity in the mouse brain

Project description:We used massively parallel tagging of progenitors to track clonal relationships and transcriptomic signatures during murine forebrain development. We found several examples of clonal divergence and convergence in both neurons and glia, and examined the processes that led to clonal divergence of GABAergic neurons. Immediately after exiting the cell-cycle, GABAergic neurons originating from the same mitotic progenitor diverged into different trajectories, suggesting that differentiation into subtypes is initiated as a lineage-dependent processes at the progenitor cell level.

Deep learning of enhancer codes highlights similarities between mammalian and avian telencephalon cell types [mpra]

Project description:Combinations of transcription factors govern the identity of cell types, which is reflected by genomic enhancer codes. We utilized deep learning to characterize these enhancer codes and devised three novel metrics to compare cell types in the telencephalon between mammals and birds. To this end, we generated single-cell multiome and spatially-resolved transcriptomics data of the chicken telencephalon. Enhancer codes of orthologous non-neuronal and GABAergic cell types show a high degree of similarity across vertebrates, while excitatory neurons of the mammalian neocortex and avian pallium exhibit varying degrees of similarity. Enhancer codes of avian mesopallial neurons are most similar to those of mammalian deep layer neurons. With this study, we present generally applicable deep learning approaches to characterize and compare cell types solely based on genomic sequences.
