Reduced dosage of β-catenin genetically rescues intracardiac anomalies in a Tbx1 conditional null mouse model of 22q11.2 deletion syndrome

ABSTRACT: Approximately 60-70% of patients with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11.2DS; velo-cardio-facial syndrome/DiGeorge syndrome) have cardiac outflow tract anomalies including persistent truncus arteriosus (PTA) as the most severe defect. Among the genes in the 22q11.2 region, TBX1, encoding a T-box transcription factor is a major candidate for cardiovascular malformations and its inactivation in mice results in a PTA. To identify novel signaling mechanisms that function downstream, we found that Tbx1 restricts canonical Wnt signaling in the pharyngeal apparatus. To test for tissue specificity within the pharyngeal apparatus, we inactivated Tbx1 in the anterior portion of the secondary heart field (AHF) mesoderm using the Mef2c-AHF-Cre allele and observed a full penetrant PTA (n = 30). Tbx1 promotes progenitor cells but restricts differentiation whereas Wnt signaling, in the AHF, promotes cardiomyocyte differentiation. To determine whether Tbx1 and canonical Wnt signaling act in opposing pathways, both alleles of Tbx1 and one β-catenin allele were inactivated in the AHF and 85% of them (n = 35) showed partial or complete rescue. The antagonistic function of the two pathways was further confirmed by gene expression profiling, indicating that these two pathways provide a key balance in the AHF to prevent premature differentiation of progenitor cells prior to reaching the cardiac outflow tract.

Reduced dosage of Î²-catenin genetically rescues intracardiac anomalies in a Tbx1 conditional null mouse model of 22q11.2 deletion syndrome

Identification of open chromatin regions in mouse cardiopharyngeal mesoderm

Project description:In the heart development, mesodermal progenitor cells in pharyngeal apparatus, termed cardiopharyngeal mesoderm, contribute to both atruim and right ventricle. Tbx1 gene, encoding a T-box transctiption factor and gene haploinsufficient in 22q11.2 deletion syndrome, is required for cardiac outflow tranct and branchiomeric muscle development. To understand how TBX1 affect open chromatin status in cardiopharyngeal mesoderm, we performed ATAC-seq in Tbx1-Cre lineage with/without Tbx1 expression.

Single-cell transcriptomics uncovers a non-autonomous Tbx1-dependent genetic program controlling cardiac neural crest cell development

Project description:Disruption of cardiac neural crest cells (CNCCs) results in congenital heart disease, yet we do not understand the cell fate dynamics as these cells differentiate to vascular smooth muscle cells. Here we performed single-cell RNA-sequencing of NCCs from the pharyngeal apparatus with the heart in control mouse embryos and when Tbx1, the gene for 22q11.2 deletion syndrome, is inactivated. We uncover three dynamic transitions of pharyngeal NCCs expressing Tbx2 and Tbx3 through differentiated CNCCs expressing cardiac transcription factors with smooth muscle genes. These transitions are altered non-autonomously by loss of Tbx1. Further, inactivation of Tbx2 and Tbx3 in early CNCCs results in aortic arch branching defects due to failed smooth muscle differentiation. Loss of Tbx1 interrupts mesoderm to CNCC cell-cell communication with upregulation and premature activation of BMP signaling and reduced MAPK signaling, as well as alteration of other signaling, and failed dynamic transitions of CNCCs leading to disruption of aortic arch artery formation and cardiac outflow tract septation.

The DiGeorge Syndrome gene TBX1 is required to specify the nkx2.5+ cardiopharyngeal lineage

Project description:Hemizygous microdeletions on chromosome 22q11.2 cause a broad spectrum of congenital cardiovascular and craniofacial anomalies known collectively as DiGeorge Syndrome (DGS) that appear to arise from reduced expression of TBX1, a gene in the typically deleted region. Although mice lacking tbx1 display similar, yet more severe, cardiovascular and craniofacial defects, the mechanisms underlying these devastating phenotypes remain incompletely understood. Here, we report that Tbx1 is required prior to pharyngeal arch development to specify the nkx2.5+ cardiopharyngeal cell lineage that gives rise to the cardiovascular and crainiofacial structures absent in tbx1 null zebrafish. Importantly, the role of Tbx1 during cardiopharyngeal lineage specification is conserved in mammals. Further, we learned that DVR1, the zebrafish homolog of mammalian GDF1/3, functions downstream of Tbx1 for pharyngeal progenitor specification. Together, these studies unveil a new paradigm potentially underlying the cardiovascular and craniofacial defects observed in the DGS population.

Gene profiling on mandibular arches (MdPA1) from Tbx1+/+ and Tbx1-/- mouse embryos

Project description:Velo-cardio-facial syndrome/DiGeorge syndrome/22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11DS) patients have a submucous cleft palate, velo-pharyngeal insufficiency associated with hypernasal speech, facial muscle hypotonia and feeding difficulties. Inactivation of both alleles of mouse Tbx1, encoding a T-box transcription factor, deleted on 22q11.2, results in a cleft palate and a reduction or loss of branchiomeric muscles. To identify genes downstream of Tbx1 for myogenesis, gene profiling was performed on mandibular arches (MdPA1) from Tbx1+/+ and Tbx1-/- mouse embryos. To obtain enough RNA for microarray hybridization experiments, dissected mandibular arches from three Tbx1+/+ and three Tbx1-/- E10.5 embryos were pooled according to genotype, with three microarrays performed in total per genotype. The tissue was homogenized in Buffer RLT (QIAGEN). Total RNA was isolated with the RNeasy Micro Kit according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Quality and quantity of total RNA was determined using an Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer (Agilent) and an ND-1000 Spectrophotometer (NanoDrop), respectively. Biotinylated single-stranded cDNA targets were amplified from 100 nanograms (ng) starting total RNA using the Ovation RNA Amplification System V2 and FL- Ovation cDNA Biotin Module V2 (NuGEN). A total of 3.75 ?g of cDNA from the last step was hybridized to the GeneChip Test3 array (Affymetrix) to test the quality of the labeled target. Nucleic acid samples that passed quality control were then hybridized to the GeneChip Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Arrays (Affymetrix). Hybridization, washing, staining and scanning were performed in the Genomics Core at Einstein (http://www.einstein.yu.edu/genetics/CoreFacilities.aspx?id=23934) according to the Affymetrix manual.

Tbx1 regulates a cardiopharyngeal mesodermal niche in forming the heart and branchiomeric muscles [scRNA-Seq 4]

Project description:The heart and branchiomeric muscles are formed from the cardiopharyngeal mesoderm (CPM) during mammalian embryogenesis. The molecular mechanisms for lineage progression in the CPM in mammals remain elusive. Here, we have used single cell RNA-seq and lineage analysis and identified a cardiopharyngeal niche containing multilineage primed cells termed multilineage progenitors (MLPs), which is maintained throughout maturation of the pharyngeal apparatus. We found that MLP function is dependent on Tbx1, encoding a T-box transcription factor and the gene for 22q11.2 deletion syndrome. TBX1 positively regulates novel MLP enriched genes such as Aplnr and Nrg1, as well as known CPM genes related to both BrM and cardiac muscle cell development. Further, loss of Tbx1 results in ectopic expression of neuronal and other non-mesodermal specification genes such as Bdnf and Pax8, respectively, indicating that normal developmental regulation is disrupted. Integration of the multi-omic data generated a TBX1 gene regulatory network, including Isl1, Pitx2, Foxc2, Six1/2 and Tcf21, that regulates CPM lineage progression from MLPs. Our finding suggests that TBX1 is a one of the key regulators in MLP to maintain CPM property and promote differentiation toward both BrM and cardiac muscle cells.
