A scRNAseq atlas of larval Drosophila ventral cord - a resource for studying motor systems function and development

Project description:Drosophila larval ventral nerve cord (VNC) shares many similarities with the spinal cord of vertebrates and has emerged as a major model for understanding the development and function of motor systems. We use high quality single cell RNA sequencing to create a comprehensive atlas of larval VNC cell types. Our atlas provides a high-resolution characterization of larval VNC capturing primary neurons, glia and the functional landscape that coordinates larval behavior. At the same time, this atlas offers unique insights into neurogenesis and into the strategies and signaling networks utilized for generation of the adult VNC.

Deregulation associated with cardiac conduction defects in Myotonic Dystrophy Type 1 using TU-Tagging

Project description:Total RNA was extracted from about 10, 1-week or 5-weeks old, entire or dissected (head, legs, wings and ovaries removed) adult flies, using TRIzol reagent (Invitrogen) following manufacturer’s instructions. The following genotypes dedicated for TU-tagging cell - specific transcript isolation were used: Hand>LacZ;HA-UPRT, Hand>MblRNAi;HA-UPRT, Hand>Bru3;HA-UPRT and Hand>960CTG;HA-UPRT

A single-cell transcriptomic atlas of the adult Drosophila ventral nerve cord

Project description:The Drosophila ventral nerve cord (VNC) receives and processes descending signals from the brain to produce a variety of coordinated locomotor outputs. It also integrates sensory information from the periphery and sends ascending signals to the brain. We used single-cell transcriptomics to generate an unbiased classification of cellular diversity in the VNC of five-day old adult flies. We produced an atlas of 26,000 high-quality cells, representing more than 100 transcriptionally distinct cell types. The predominant gene signatures defining neuronal cell types reflect shared developmental histories based on the neuroblast from which cells were derived, as well as their birth order. Cells could also be assigned to specific neuromeres using adult Hox gene expression. This single-cell transcriptional atlas of the adult fly VNC will be a valuable resource for future studies of neurodevelopment and behavior.

A novel <i>Drosophila</i> injury model reveals severed axons are cleared through a Draper/MMP-1 signaling cascade.

Project description:Neural injury triggers swift responses from glia, including glial migration and phagocytic clearance of damaged neurons. The transcriptional programs governing these complex innate glial immune responses are still unclear. Here, we describe a novel injury assay in adult Drosophila that elicits widespread glial responses in the ventral nerve cord (VNC). We profiled injury-induced changes in VNC gene expression by RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) and found that responsive genes fall into diverse signaling classes. One factor, matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1), is induced in Drosophila ensheathing glia responding to severed axons. Interestingly, glial induction of MMP-1 requires the highly conserved engulfment receptor Draper, as well as AP-1 and STAT92E. In MMP-1 depleted flies, glia do not properly infiltrate neuropil regions after axotomy and, as a consequence, fail to clear degenerating axonal debris. This work identifies Draper-dependent activation of MMP-1 as a novel cascade required for proper glial clearance of severed axons.

RNA-Seq of Bovan brown chicken posterior forewing regions from control and stage HH19 cyclopamine-treated samples, posterior foreleg regions of control Bovan brown and feathered Pekin bantams collected at E10.5

Project description:This experiment was designed to investigate how inhibition of Shh signalling result in loss of flight feathers, and to identify genes involved in flight feather development. We carried out cyclopamine treatment of wing buds at HH19 which gives rise to 2 digit wings with absence of flight feathers. The posterior forewing regions of control and cyclopamine treated wings were analysed at E10.5, the developmental stage at which flight feathers first become apparent. Control leg tissue was also included in the analysis to enrich data for genes involved in general feather development. To enrich further for genes with roles in flight feather development, we also included samples from the feathered legs of Pekin bantam chickens. 3 biological replicates of pooled wing/leg sections were analysed and 12 samples were sequenced.

A double negative post-transcriptional regulatory circuit mediates the virgin behavioral state

Project description:The survival and reproductive success of animals depends on the ability to harmonize their external behaviors with their internal states. For example, females conduct numerous social programs that are distinctive to virgins compared to post-mated and/or pregnant individuals. In Drosophila, the fact that the post-mating switch is initiated by seminal factors implies the default state as virgin. Recently, we uncovered molecular and genetic control of the female virgin state. In particular, repression of the transcription factor Homothorax (Hth) by mir-iab-4/8 within the abdominal ventral nerve cord (VNC) is critical for unmated females to execute virgin behaviors. To elucidate new components of this regulatory circuit, we exploited mir-iab-4/8 deletion and hth-miRNA binding site mutants (hth[BSmut]) to elucidate doublesex (dsx) as a critical downstream factor. While Dsx has mostly been studied during sex-specific differentiation, its activities in neurons are little known. We find that accumulation of Dsx in the CNS is mutually exclusive with Hth, and downregulated in miRNA/hth[BSmut] mutants. Moreover, experimental suppression of Dsx in highly restricted sets of abdominal neurons abrogates female virgin conducts, in favor of mated behavioral programs. Thus, a double negative pathway in the VNC mediates the virgin behavioral state.

Innervated and 2 month Denervated Rat EDL muscles

Project description:The right legs of 8 Brown-Norway male rats were denervated by a high sciatic nerve section in the hip region of the hind limb.Two months after denervation (6 months of age), extensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscles were removed from the operated legs. The EDL muscles from 8 age-matched non-operated rats served as innervated controls. Total RNA was isolated, labeled cDNA was prepared and hybridized to the Rat Atlas 1.2 Array II membranes (Clontech Laboratories, Palo Alto, CA).

Gene expression patterns in the head horns, thoracic horns, and legs of the horned beetles Onthophagus taurus

Project description:This series examines gene expression patterns in the head horns, thoracic horns, and legs of the horned beetles Onthophagus taurus. Expression in each of these tissues was compared to that in common non-appendage reference - abdominal epithelium. The series consists of three pair-wise comparisons: head horn versus abdominal epithelium, thoracic horn versus abdominal epithelium and legs versus abdominal epithelium. Each tissue sample was obtained by pooling tissue dissected from four pupae. Samples compared on the same array were derived from tissues dissected from the same four animals. Five independent biological replicates were performed for each comparison with dye flips (three in one direction and two in the opposite direction).
