Project description:Craniofacial microsomia encapsulates congenital anomalies of the external and middle ear, maxilla, mandible, facial and trigeminal nerves, and surrounding soft tissues on the affected side. The recruitment of craniofacial microsomia samples is a huge problem to bind the investigation of its genetic basis because of the lower prevalence rate (ranging between 1 and 4 per 10,000 births) and consultation rate. Here, we performed the first genome-wide associations study on craniofacial microsomia and identified many significant loci associated with craniofacial microsomia.

Project description:Craniofacial development requires intricate cooperation of multiple transcription factors and signaling pathways. Six1 is a critical transcription factor regulating craniofacial development. However, the exact function of Six1 during craniofacial development remains elusive. In this study, we investigated the function of Six1 in mandible development using a Six1 knockout mouse model (Six1-/-) and a cranial neural crest-specific, Six1 conditional knockout mouse model (Six1f/f; Wnt1-Cre). The Six1-/- mice exhibited multiple craniofacial deformities, including severe microsomia, high-arched palate, and uvula deformity. Importantly, the Six1f/f; Wnt1-Cre mice recapitulate the microsomia phenotype of Six1-/- mice, thus demonstrating that the expression of Six1 in ectomesenchyme is critical for mandible development. We further showed that the knockout of Six1 led to abnormal expression of osteogenic genes within the mandible. Moreover, the knockdown of Six1 in C3H10 T1/2 cells reduced their osteogenic capacity in vitro. Using RNA-seq, we showed that both the loss of Six1 in the E18.5 mandible and the Six1 knockdown in C3H10 T1/2 led to the dysregulation of genes involved in embryonal skeletal development. In particular, we showed that Six1 binds to the promoter of Bmp4, Fat4, Fgf18, and Fgfr2, and promotes their transcription. Collectively, our results suggest that Six1 plays a critical role in the regulation of mandibular skeleton formation during mouse embryogenesis.

</div><div>Craniofacial microsomia (CFM), also termed hemifacial microsomia or oculo-auricular-vertebral spectrum, is the third most common congenital craniofacial condition. CFM comprises a variable phenotype and the most common features include malformations of the ear (i.e. microtia) and lower jaw (i.e. mandibular hypoplasia) on one or both sides. Microtia in the absence of other anomalies is believed to represent the mildest form of CFM. The cause of CFM is unknown for most affected individuals. We have established a cohort through previous studies and collected DNA to identify the genetic contributions to CFM, which could facilitate diagnosis, tailored treatments and guide prevention strategies. Successful completion of this proposal will advance knowledge in the genetic architecture of susceptibility to CFM and will provide insight about the biological mechanisms underlying craniofacial development. The results from this study have the potential to further research on the etiology of other craniofacial conditions, and the pathogenesis of typical and atypical craniofacial development.

Project description:Craniofacial microsomia (CFM) is a congenital defect that usually results from aberrant development of embryonic pharyngeal arches. However, the molecular basis of CFM pathogenesis is largely unknown. Here, we employ the zebrafish model to investigate mechanisms of CFM pathogenesis. In early embryos, tet2 and tet3 are essential for pharyngeal cartilage development. Single-cell RNA sequencing reveals that loss of Tet2/3 impairs chondrocyte differentiation due to insufficient BMP signaling. Moreover, biochemical and genetic evidence reveals that the sequence-specific 5mC/5hmC-binding protein, Sall4, binds the promoter of bmp4 to activate bmp4 expression and control pharyngeal cartilage development. Mechanistically, Sall4 directs co-phase separation of Tet2/3 with Sall4 to form condensates that mediate 5mC oxidation on the bmp4 promoter, thereby promoting bmp4 expression and enabling sufficient BMP signaling. These findings suggest the TET-BMP-Sall4 regulatory axis is critical for pharyngeal cartilage development. Collectively, our study provides insights into understanding craniofacial development and CFM pathogenesis.

Project description:Craniofacial microsomia (CFM) is a congenital defect that usually results from aberrant development of embryonic pharyngeal arches. However, the molecular basis of CFM pathogenesis is largely unknown. Here we employ zebrafish model to investigate the mechanism of CFM pathogenesis. In early embryos, tet2 and tet3 are highly expressed and are essential for pharyngeal cartilage development. Single-cell RNA sequencing and genetic analyses reveal that loss of Tet2/3 impaired chondrocyte differentiation largely due to insufficient BMP signaling. Mechanistically, Tet2/3-mediated 5-hydroxymethylcytosine modification allows the 5-hydroxymethylcytosine “reader”, Sall4, to specifically bind the bmp4 promoter, thereby promoting bmp4 expression and enabling efficient BMP signaling. These findings indicate the TET-BMP regulatory axis via 5-hydroxymethylcytosine to be critical for pharyngeal cartilage development. Whole-exome sequencing of CFM patient samples show that single nucleotide polymorphisms in TET and BMP pathway genes increase the risk of CFM. Collectively, our study provides novel insights into understanding craniofacial development and CFM pathogenesis.
