Project description:Microglia are highly responsive to their local environment and signals from the periphery. Blood plasma proteins readily permeate the healthy brain parenchyma. However, whether microglia are responsive to such proteins is unclear. Here, we identify a stable population of microglia takes up plasma proteins in a region-specific manner in healthy brains. To understand the difference of these two populations at the transcriptomic level, we sorted plasma-positive microglia and plasma-negative microglia from hypothalamus region of young mice (3-month-old).

Project description:Microglia are the resident immune cells of the central nervous system (CNS) and are derived from yolk sac progenitors. In the embryo, microglia invade the CNS starting at embryonic day 9.5 (E9.5) and continue to colonize alongside neural development. Microglia also mature across development, altering their morphology and expression signatures from embryonic to adult stages, suggesting differing roles for microglia in the developing brain than in the adult. While microglia were originally thought to be resting immune cells responsible for cleaning up cellular debris, studies are now showing that microglia are highly dynamic cells involved in proper postnatal development of the brain and adult neuronal plasticity. Although recent reports have demonstrated that microglia in the embryonic brain are responsive to maternal stress, causing changes in neural development that lead to autistic- and schizophrenic-like behaviours later in life, the actual effects of microglia on embryonic developmental programs are just emerging. Our lab studies the hypothalamus, a brain region that controls a variety of physiologies including energy balance, reproduction, and even parenting behaviors, and it is also responsive to maternal stress. Interestingly, my previous work has shown that that the hypothalamus uniquely is comprised of at least two distinct populations of microglia. The first group of microglia are ramified, and appear to be passively surveying the hypothalamic mantle as we would expect. The second cluster of microglia is amoeboid and activated, and are located adjacent to the ventricular zone (VZ) where hypothalamic neural progenitor cells (NPCs) reside. Given that this second group of microglia is in direct contact with NPCs, we hypothesize that microglia located in the VZ of the hypothalamus play an important role during embryonic development to organize the neurons and neuronal connections required for proper hypothalamic function. In order to identify the expression profiles of microglia in the VZ as compared to microglia present in the mantle of the hypothalamus, we used Cx3cr1-Cre; Rosa26tdTomato mice to mark microglia. We then micro-dissected the hypothalamic/thalamic region of the E15.5 brains and used flow cytometry to extract tdTomato+ microglia. We then performed single-cell RNAseq on the microglia to determine the transcriptomic phenotype of these two populations.

Project description:We describe age-related molecular and neuronal changes that disrupt mobility or energy balance based on brain region and genetic background. Compared to young mice, aged C57BL/6 mice exhibit marked locomotor (but not energy balance) impairments. In contrast, aged BALB mice exhibit marked energy balance (but not locomotor) impairments. Age-related changes in cerebellar or hypothalamic gene expression accompany these phenotypes. Aging evokes upregulation of immune pattern recognition receptors and cell adhesion molecules. However, these changes do not localize to microglia, the major CNS immunocyte. Consistent with a neuronal role, there is a marked age-related increase in excitatory synapses over the cerebellum and hypothalamus. Functional imaging of these regions is consistent with age-related synaptic impairments. These studies suggest that aging reactivates a developmental program employed during embryogenesis where immune molecules guide synapse formation and pruning. Renewed activity in this program may disrupt excitatory neurotransmission, causing significant behavioral deficits. keywords: aging, C57BL/6, BALB, CBA, hypothalamus, cerebellum, striatum, frontal cortex

In order to identify the expression profiles of microglia in the VZ as compared to microglia present in the mantle of the hypothalamus, we extracted microglia from the brains of CD1 embryos and employed single-cell RNAseq. Specifically, we micro-dissected out the hypothalamic/thalamic region of E15.5 brains, created a single-cell suspension that was stained with Cd11b-PE / Cd45-FITC to mark microglia, and then used FACS to extract microglia from our mixed cell suspension. We then performed single-cell RNAseq on the microglia to determine the transcriptomic phenotype of these two populations either in a control condition or following maternal stress, where pregnant dams were exposed to a mild cold stress for 30 min a day over 5 days.

Project description:Alterations in metabolism, sleep patterns, body composition, and hormone status are all key features of aging. The hypothalamus is a well-conserved brain region that controls these homeostatic and survival-related behaviors. Despite the importance of this brain region in healthy aging, little is known about the intrinsic features of hypothalamic aging. Here, we utilize single nuclei RNA-sequencing to assess the transcriptomes of 40,064 hypothalamic nuclei from young and aged female mice. We identify cell type-specific signatures of aging in neurons, astrocytes, and microglia, as well as among the diverse collection of neuronal subtypes in this region. We uncover key changes in cell types critical for metabolic regulation and body composition, as well as in an area of the hypothalamus linked to cognition. In addition, our analysis reveals female-specific changes in sex chromosome regulation in the aging brain. This study identifies critical cell-specific features of the aging hypothalamus in mammals.
