Prospective isolation of functionally distinct radial glial subtypes - lineage and transcriptome analysis

ABSTRACT: Since the discovery of radial glia as the source of neurons, their heterogeneity in regard to neurogenesis has been described by clonal and time-lapse analysis in vitro. However, the molecular determinants specifying neurogenic radial glia differently from radial glia that mostly self-renew remain ill-defined. Here, we isolated two radial glial subsets that co-exist at mid-neurogenesis in the developing cerebral cortex and their immediate progeny. While one subset generates neurons directly, the other is largely non-neurogenic but also gives rise to Tbr2-positive basal precursors, thereby contributing indirectly to neurogenesis. Isolation of these distinct radial glia subtypes allowed determining interesting differences in their transcriptome. These transcriptomes were also strikingly different from the transcriptome of radial glia isolated at the end of neurogenesis. This analysis therefore identifies, for the first time, the lineage origin of basal progenitors and the molecular differences of this lineage in comparison to directly neurogenic and gliogenic radial glia.

Generation of cellular diversity through temporal patterning of radial glia during mouse corticogenesis

Project description:Neural cell type diversity arises from both spatial and temporal patterning of neural stem cells. Although spatial patterning mechanisms have been extensively studied, temporal patterning mechanisms remain relatively unexplored. In this study, we addressed generation of diverse neural cell types through lineage progression of mouse cortical radial glia. The time series scRNA-seq and snATAC-seq of mouse cortical development revealed that radial glia temporally transitioned from neurogenesis to gliogenesis. During gliogenic stages, various cell types were generated simultaneously along multidirectional lineage trajectories. We established comprehensive molecular maps for cortical lineage commitment and cellular diversification. The transcriptome and epigenome of cortical radial glia exhibit temporal dynamics, as revealed by scRNA-seq and snATAC-seq. Lhx2, a transcription factor with temporal dynamic chromatin binding activities, was identified as a key regulator of the neurogenesis-to-gliogenesis transition. It maintains neurogenic competence by establishing the active epigenetic state of its target genes.

Single cell sequencing of radial glia progeny reveals diversity of newborn neurons in the adult zebrafish brain

Project description:Zebrafish display widespread and pronounced adult neurogenesis, which is fundamental for their regeneration capability after central nervous system injury. However, the cellular identity and the biological properties of adult newborn neurons are elusive for most brain areas. Here, we used short-term lineage tracing of radial glia progeny to prospectively isolate newborn neurons from the her4.1+ radial glia lineage in the homeostatic adult forebrain. Transcriptome analysis of radial glia, newborn neurons and mature neurons using single cell sequencing identified distinct transcriptional profiles including novel markers for each population. Specifically, we detected 2 separate newborn neuron types, which showed diversity of cell fate commitment and location. Further analyses showed homology of these cell types to neurogenic cells in the mammalian brain, identified neurogenic commitment in proliferating radial glia and indicated that glutamatergic projection neurons fate are generated in the adult zebrafish telecephalon. Thus, we prospectively isolated adult newborn neurons from the adult zebrafish forebrain, identified markers for newborn and mature neurons in the adult brain, revealed intrinsic heterogeneity among adult newborn neurons and their homology to mammalian adult neurogenic cell types.

Primate-expressed EPIREGULIN promotes basal progenitor proliferation in the developing neocortex

Project description:Neocortex expansion during evolution is linked to higher numbers of neurons thought to result from increased proliferative capacity and neurogenic potential of basal progenitors during development. Here, we show that EREG, encoding the growth factor EPIREGULIN, is expressed in the human developing neocortex, but not in the mouse neocortex. Addition of EPIREGULIN to the mouse neocortex increases proliferation of both major basal progenitor types, intermediate basal progenitors and basal radial glia, whereas ablation of EPIREGULIN in human cortical organoids reduces basal progenitor proliferation. Here, we analyzed gene expression changes upon addition of EPIREGULIN to the mouse neocortex for 24 hours using hemisphere rotation culture. We performed fluorescent activated cell sorting to isolate radial glia (RG), intermediate progenitor (IP) cells and neurons (N) based on the nuclear markers Sox2 and Tbr2, and expression of GFP in neurons isolated from a Tubb3::GFP mouse reporter line.

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

The role of Insulinoma associated 1 protein in the development of the mammalian neocortex

Project description:Basal (intermediate) progenitors are the major source of neurons in the mammalian cerebral cortex. The molecular machinery governing basal progenitor biogenesis is unknown. Here we show that the zinc finger transcription factor Insm1 (insulinoma-associated 1) is expressed specifically in progenitors undergoing neurogenic divisions and has a key role in basal progenitor formation. Mouse embryos lacking Insm1 contained half the number of basal progenitors and showed a marked reduction in cortical plate radial thickness. Forced premature expression of Insm1 in neuroepithelial cells resulted in their mitosis occurring at the basal (rather than apical) side of the ventricular zone and induced expression of the basal progenitor marker Tbr2. Remarkably, these cells remained negative for Tis21, a marker of neurogenic progenitors, and did not generate neurons but underwent self-amplification. Our data imply that Insm1 is involved in the generation and expansion of basal progenitors, a hallmark of cerebral cortex evolution. Keywords: knock out, genetic modification,

Gene expression in basal progenitors in the cerebral cortex of Tbr2 conditional knockout mice

Project description:During cortical development neurons are generated from basal progenitors (BPs) which specifically express the transcription factor Tbr2. We used fluorescent-activated cell sorting (FACS) to isolate BPs from Tbr2-conditional knockout mice brain at early (E13) and late (E16) stages of cortical neurogenesis and determined mRNA expression profiles using microarray (Illumina MouseWG-6 v2). Role of transcription factor Tbr2 in basal progenitors during corticogenesis.

Analyzing human neural stem cell ontogeny by consecutive isolation of Notch active neural progenitors

Project description:Decoding heterogeneity of pluripotent stem cell (PSC)-derived neural progeny is fundamental for revealing the origin of diverse progenitors, for defining their lineages, and for identifying fate determinants driving transition through distinct potencies. Here we prospectively isolated consecutively appearing PSC-derived primary progenitors based on their Notch activation state. We first isolate early neuroepithelial cells and show their broad Notch-dependent developmental and proliferative potential. Neuroepithelial cells further yield successive Notch-dependent functional primary progenitors, from early and mid neurogenic radial glia and their derived basal progenitors, to gliogenic radial glia and adult-like neural progenitors, together recapitulating hallmarks of neural stem cell (NSC) ontogeny. Gene expression profiling reveals dynamic stage specific transcriptional patterns that may link development of distinct progenitor identities through Notch activation. Our observations provide a platform for characterization and manipulation of distinct progenitor cell types amenable for developing streamlined neural lineage specification paradigms for modeling development in health and disease.

Analysis of Mll1-deficiency identifies neurogenic transcriptional modules and Brn4 as a factor for direct astrocyte-to-neuron reprogramming

Project description:BACKGROUND: Mixed lineage leukemia-1 (Mll1) epigenetically regulates gene expression patterns that specify cellular identity in both embryonic development and adult stem cell populations. In the adult mouse brain, multipotent neural stem cells (NSCs) in the subventricular zone (SVZ) generate new neurons throughout life and Mll1 is required for this postnatal neurogenesis but not for glial cell differentiation. Analysis of Mll1-dependent transcription may identify neurogenic genes useful for the direct reprogramming of astrocytes into neurons. OBJECTIVE: To identify Mll1-dependent transcriptional modules and determine whether genes in the neurogenic modules can be used to directly reprogram astrocytes into neurons. METHODS: We performed gene coexpression module analysis on microarray data from differentiating wild-type and Mll1-deleted SVZ NSCs. Key developmental regulators belonging to the neurogenic modules were overexpressed in Mll1-deleted cells and cultured cortical astrocytes, and cell phenotypes were analyzed by immunocytochemistry and electrophysiology. RESULTS: Transcriptional modules that correspond to neurogenesis were identified in wild-type NSCs. Modules related to astrocytes and oligodendrocytes were enriched in Mll1-deleted NSCs, consistent with their gliogenic potential. Overexpression of genes selected from the neurogenic modules enhanced the production of neurons from Mll1- deleted cells, and the overexpression of Brn4 (Pou3f4) in non-neurogenic cortical astroglia induced their transdifferentiation into electrophysiologically active neurons. CONCLUSIONS: Our results demonstrate that Mll1 is required for the expression of neurogenic - but not gliogenic - transcriptional modules in a multipotent NSC population and further indicate that specific Mll1-dependent genes may be useful for direct reprogramming strategies.
