Project description:Individuals with Williams syndrome (WS), a multisystemic neurodevelopmental disorder, characteristically portray a hypersocial phenotype. WS is caused by the hemizygous loss of 26-28 genes at chromosomal locus 7q11.23, one of which is GTF2I. Copy number variations and mutations in GTF2I are associated with altered sociality and have been proposed to underlie the hypersocial expression of WS. However, the contribution of GTF2I to human neurodevelopment remains poorly understood. Here, human cellular models of neurodevelopment, including neural progenitors, neurons, and three-dimensional cortical organoids, were differentiated from CRISPR-Ca9-edited GTF2I-knockout (GTF2I-KO) pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) to investigate the role of GTF2I in human neurodevelopment. Compared to controls, GTF2I-KO progenitors exhibited an increased proliferation rate and an altered cell cycle profile. Cortical organoids and neurons demonstrated increased cell death and synaptic dysregulation, including synaptic structural dysfunction and decreased electrophysiological activity on a multi-electrode array. Overall, our findings suggest that changes in synaptic circuit integrity may be a prominent mediator of the link between alterations in GTF2I and variation in the phenotypic expression of human sociality.

Project description:Williams syndrome is a neurodevelopmental disorder caused by a 1.5-1.8Mbp deletion on chromosome 7q11.23, affecting the copy number of 26-28 genes. Phenotypes of Williams syndrome include cardiovascular problems, craniofacial dysmorphology, deficits in visual spatial cognition, and a characteristic hypersocial personality. There are still no genes in the region that have been consistently linked to the cognitive and behavioral phenotypes, although human studies and mouse models have led to the current hypothesis that the general transcription factor 2 I family of genes, GTF2I and GTF2IRD1, are responsible. Here we test the hypothesis that these two transcription factors are sufficient to reproduce the phenotypes that are caused by deletion of the Williams syndrome critical region (WSCR). We compare a new mouse model with loss of function mutations in both Gtf2i and Gtf2ird1 to an established mouse model lacking the complete WSCR. We show that the complete deletion model has deficits across several behavioral domains including social communication, motor functioning, and conditioned fear that are not explained by loss of function mutations in Gtf2i and Gtf2ird1. Furthermore, transcriptome profiling of the hippocampus shows changes in synaptic genes in the complete deletion model that are not seen in the double mutants. Thus, we have thoroughly defined a set of molecular and behavioral consequences of complete WSCR deletion, and shown that other genes or combinations of genes are necessary to produce these phenotypic effects.

Project description:The pathogenesis of thymic epithelial tumors (TETs) is poorly understood. Recently we reported the frequent occurrence of a missense mutation in the GTF2I gene in TETs and hypothesized that GTF2I mutation might contribute to thymic tumorigenesis. Expression of mutant TFII-I altered the transcriptome of normal thymic epithelial cells and upregulated several oncogenic genes. Gtf2i L424H knockin cells exhibited cell transformation, aneuploidy, and increase tumor growth and survival under glucose deprivation or DNA damage. Gtf2i mutation also increased the expression of several glycolytic enzymes, cyclooxygenase-2, and caused modifications of lipid metabolism. Elevated cyclooxygenase-2 expression by Gtf2i mutation was required for survival under metabolic stress and cellular transformation of thymic epithelial cells. Our findings identify GTF2I mutation as a new oncogenic driver that is responsible for transformation of thymic epithelial cells.

Project description:The molecular mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of TETs are poorly understood. Recently we reported a common missense mutation on GTF2I gene in thymic tumors and hypothesized that GTF2I mutation might contribute to thymic tumorigenesis. Expression of mutant TFII-I altered the transcriptome of thymic epithelial cells and up-regulated several oncogenic genes. Using CRISPR/Cas9n, Gtf2i T1211A knock-in cells exhibited distinct features of cancerous cells including cell transformation, aneuploidy, tumor growth in xenograft, and survival after DNA damage or glucose deprivation. We also observed that Gtf2i mutation increased the expression of several glycolytic enzymes, cyclooxygenase-2, and altered lipid metabolism. Elevated COX-2 expression by Gtf2i mutation was required for survival under metabolic stress and cellular transformation of thymic epithelial cells. Our findings identify GTF2I mutation as a new oncogenic driver mutation that is responsible for transformation of thymic epithelial cells.

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of mouse cortex tissue comparing control animals with Gtf2i-mutated mouse (Gtf2i+/Δex2 ). Goal was to determine the specific deregulated genes in the cortex of mutated animals. Pools of total RNA derived from five-three mice of each genotype were subjected to microarray analysis. We compared pools instead of single individuals in order to minimize individual and technically-related variation. The original raw data file (i.e. Agilent feature extraction files) are not available. The modified raw data files are provided along with the file contents description (raw_data_readme.txt available on Series records).
