Project description:Analysis of gene expression differences in three types of mouse motor neurons: (1) those harvested from E13.5 mouse embryos; (2) those derived from embryonic stem cells by directed differentiation; and (3) those made from mouse embryonic fibroblasts by transcription factor reprogramming. Hb9::GFP+ mouse motor neurons were obtained by three methods [(1) dissection of Hb9::GFP-transgenic E13.5 mouse embryo spinal cord; (2) directed differentiation of an Hb9::GFP-transgenic mouse embryonic stem cell line, V6.5; (3) reprogramming of Hb9::GFP-transgenic mouse embryonic fibroblasts by overexpression of 10 transcription factors]. Each type of motor neuron was purified by FACS and harvested in Trizol. Total RNA was purified and prepared for hybridization onto Illumina MouseRef-8.

Project description:The motor neuron (MN)–hexamer complex consisting of LIM homeobox 3, Islet-1, and nuclear LIM interactor is a key determinant of motor neuron specification and differentiation. To gain insights into the transcriptional network in motor neuron development, we performed a genome-wide ChIP-sequencing analysis and found that the MN–hexamer directly regulates a wide array of motor neuron genes by binding to the HxRE (hexamer response element) shared among the target genes. Interestingly, STAT3-binding motif is highly enriched in the MN–hexamer–bound peaks in addition to the HxRE. We also found that a transcriptionally active form of STAT3 is expressed in embryonic motor neurons and that STAT3 associates with the MN–hexamer, enhancing the transcriptional activity of the MN–hexamer in an upstream signal-dependent manner. Correspondingly, STAT3 was needed for motor neuron differentiation in the developing spinal cord. Together, our studies uncover crucial gene regulatory mechanisms that couple MN–hexamer and STAT-activating extracellular signals to promote motor neuron differentiation in vertebrate spinal cord. To explain our experimental scheme briefly, we are interested in finding target sites for the dimer of transcription factors Isl1 and Lhx3. To mimic the biological activity of Isl1/Lhx3 dimer, we made Isl1-Lhx3 fusion and found that Isl1-Lhx3 has a potent biological activity in multiple systems (i.e. generation of ectopic motor neurons). Then we made ES cell line that induces Flag-tagged Isl1-Lhx3 expression upon Dox treatment. These *mouse* ES cells differentiate to motor neurons (iMN-ESCs) when treated with Dox following EB formation. To identify genomic binding sites of Isl1-Lhx3 (Flag-tagged), we performed ChIP with Flag antibody (pull down of Flag-Isl1-Lhx3) in ES cells treated with Dox. ChIP with Flag antibody in ES cells treated with vehicle (no Dox) was done as a negative control in parallel, and sequenced along with +Dox sample. We have done these experiments twice (two sets).

Project description:Mouse spinal motor neurons are specified in the embryo on embrynic day 9.5 (E9.5), but motor function doesn't fully mature till the third week of postnatal life (P14-P21) and the degenerative disease Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis only affects motor neurons in adulthood (age of onset differs between models). In order to better understand motor neuron maturation, we have generated a temporal map of motor neuron transcriptional states at E10.5, E13.5, P4, P13, P21, P56, 2yr. In addition we have also profiled stem cell derived motor neurons that were co-cultured with astrocytes at DIV0, DIV7, DIV28.

Project description:Combinatorial transcription codes generate the myriad of cell types during development, and thus likely provide crucial insights into directed differentiation of stem cells to a specific cell type. The LIM-complex composed of Isl1 and Lhx3 directs the specification of spinal motor neurons (MNs) in embryos. Here, we report that Isl1-Lhx3, a LIMcomplex-mimicking fusion, induces a signature of MN transcriptome and concomitantly suppresses interneuron differentiation programs, thereby serving as a potent and specific inducer of MNs in stem cells. We show that an equimolar ratio of Isl1 and Lhx3 and the LIM-domain of Lhx3 are crucial for generating MNs without upregulating interneuron genes. These led us to design Isl1-Lhx3, which maintains the desirable 1:1 ratio of Isl1 and Lhx3 and the LIM-domain of Lhx3. Isl1-Lhx3 drives MN differentiation with high specificity and efficiency in the spinal cord and embryonic stem cells, bypassing the need for sonic hedgehog. RNA-seq analysis revealed that Isl1-Lhx3 induces the expression of a battery of MN genes that control various functional aspects of MNs, while suppressing key interneuron genes. Our studies uncover a highly efficient method for directed MN generation and MN gene networks. Our results also demonstrate a general strategy of utilizing embryonic transcription complexes for producing specific cell types from stem cells. Examine the RNA expression profiles of inducible motor neurons-embryonic stem cells (iMN-ESCs) with or without Dox treatment, with biological duplicates.

Project description:To identify molecular differences between closely related motor neurons relevant for understanding of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), we exploited induced cranial and spinal motor neuron populations from mouse embryonic stem cells. We performed a large scale time-dependent TMT-based proteomics analysis in the presence and absence of protein misfolding stress. We profiled ~8,600 proteins from two different motor neuron cell lines, measured in two replicates and three time points.

Project description:Gene expression profiling has been performed previously on motor cortex and spinal cord homogenates and of sporadic ALS cases and controls, to identify genes and pathways differentially expressed in ALS. More recent studies have combined the use of laser capture microdissection (LCM) with gene expression profiling to isolate the motor neurons from the surrounding cells, such as microglia and astrocytes, in order to determine those genes differentially expressed in the vulnerable cell population – i.e. motor neuron. The aim of the present study is to combine LCM and microarray analysis to determine those genes and pathways differentially expressed in MNs from human SOD1-related MND and to establish potential pathways for therapeutic intervention. Keywords: Human motor neurons The aim of this study was to determine the gene expression profiles from a small subset of cases which all carry mutations in the SOD1 gene. Expression profiles from isolated motor neurons in SOD1-related ALS cases were compared to those from control motor neurons, in order to establish the pathways implicated in SOD1-related motor neuronal cell death. The 'control' samples were originally submitted to GEO as GSE19332.

Project description:Transcriptional programming of cell identity promises to open up new frontiers in regenerative medicine by enabling the efficient production of clinically relevant cell types. We examine if such cellular programming is accomplished by transcription factors that each have an independent and additive effect on cellular identity, or if programming factors synergize to produce an effect that is not independently obtainable. The combinations of Ngn2-Isl1-Lhx3 and Ngn2-Isl1-Phox2a transcription factors program embryonic stem cells to express a spinal or cranial motor neuron identity respectively. The two alternate expression programs are determined by recruitment of Isl1/Lhx3 and Isl1/Phox2a pairs to distinct genomic locations characterized by two alternative dimeric homeobox motifs. These results suggest that the function of programming modules relies on synergistic interactions among transcription factors and thus cannot be extrapolated from the study of individual transcription factors in a different cellular context. In this study, we functionally characterize induced motor neurons that have been directly generated from ES cells via the forced expression of two different combinations of three transcription factors. Spinal motor neurons are induced via the expression of Ngn2, Isl1, and Lhx3 (iNIL), while cortical motor neurons are induced via the expression of Ngn2, Isl1, and Phox2a (iNIP). Here we profile the gene expression patterns of both types of induced motor neurons, directed differentiation motor neurons, and control cells. In all, 20 microarray experiments are provided in this submission, including 3 replicates of a control condition, 3 replicates of cells that have 24hrs induction of iNIL, 2 replicates of induced spinal motor neurons (induction of iNIL for 48hrs) that have been Hb9-GFP sorted, 3 replicates of induced spinal motor neurons exposed to retinoic acid that have been Hb9-GFP sorted, 3 replicates of motor neurons that have been differentiated in vitro using RA and Hh signalling, 3 replicates of induced cortical motor neurons (induction of iNIP for 48hrs), and 3 replicates of cells in which Isl1 in induced alone (induction of iI for 48hrs). For ChIP-Seq Samples: In this study, we functionally characterize induced motor neurons that have been directly generated from ES cells via the forced expression of two different combinations of three transcription factors. Spinal motor neurons are induced via the expression of Ngn2, Isl1, and Lhx3 (iNIL), while cortical motor neurons are induced via the expression of Ngn2, Isl1, and Phox2a (iNIP). The genome-wide binding of some of the programming factors is characterized here using ChIP-seq. We characterize the binding of Lhx3 and Isl1/2 in iNIL cells, Phox2a and Isl1/2 in iNIP cells, and Isl1/2 in cells in which Isl1 is induced alone (iI). There are 7 Illumina sequence datasets in this submission; one replicate for each of iLhx3-V5 and Isl1/2 in iNIL cells, two replicates for each of iPhox2a-V5 and Isl1/2 in iNIP cells, and one replicate for Isl1/2 in iI cells. An appropriate pseudo-IP control experiment is included.
