Project description:CHD3 is a component of the NuRD chromatin remodeller. Mutations in CHD3 cause Snijders Blok-Campeau Syndrome, a neurodevelopmental disorder marked by intellectual disability and craniofacial abnormalities. To unveil the role of CHD3 in craniofacial development, we differentiated CHD3-null induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) into cranial neural crest cells (CNCC). We found that CHD3 expression is low in iPSCs and neuroectoderm, but it is upregulated during CNCC specification, where CHD3-containing NuRD opens the chromatin at BMP-responsive enhancers, to allow binding of DLX5 and other factors. CHD3 loss leads to repression of BMP target genes and imbalance between BMP and Wnt signalling, which ultimately results in aberrant mesodermal fate. Consequently, cranial neural crest specification fails, replaced by mesodermal identity, which can be partially rescued by titrating Wnt levels. Our findings highlight a novel role for CHD3 as pivotal regulator of BMP signalling, essential for proper neural crest specification and craniofacial development.

Project description:Developmental potential is progressively restricted after germ layer specification during gastrulation. However, cranial neural crest cells challenge this paradigm, as they develop from anterior ectoderm yet give rise to both mesodermal derivatives of the craniofacial skeleton and ectodermal derivatives of the peripheral nervous system. How cranial neural crest cells differentiate into multiple lineages is poorly understood. Here, we demonstrate that cranial neural crest cells possess a transient state of increased chromatin accessibility; and that the earliest premigratory neural crest are biased towards either a neuronal or ectomesenchymal fate, with each lineage expressing distinct factors from the pluripotent state. We profile the spatiotemporal emergence of each neural crest population and demonstrate that the ectomesenchymal lineage forms prior to the neuronal progenitors. Expression of the pluripotency microRNA family miR-302 is maintained in cranial neural crest cells and genetic deletion leads to precocious specification of the ectomesenchymal lineage. We find that miR-302 directly targets Sox9 to slow the timing of ectomesenchyme induction and regulates multiple genes involved in chromatin condensation to maintain accessibility for neuronal differentiation. Loss of mir-302 results in reduced chromatin accessibility in the neuronal progenitor lineage of neural crest and a reduction in peripheral neuron differentiation. Our findings reveal a post-transcriptional mechanism governed by miRNAs from pluripotency as an important mechanism to expand developmental potential of cranial neural crest.

Project description:Neural cest cells are a transient stem cell-like population appearing during vertebrate embryonic development. Generation of the cranial neural crest is known to require a balanced combination of FGF and BMP levels. However, it is poorly understood how the functions of such growth factors are controlled in the extracellular spaces. Anosmin is an extracellular matrix protein implicated in FGF signaling and mutated in Kallmann syndrome. Here, we demonstrate that anosmin (Gga.14976.1.S1_at, clone ChEST132d10) is synthesized locally in the cranial neural crest of chicken embryos and is essential for cranial neural crest formation. Anosmin upregulates FGF8 and BMP5 gene expression; it also enhances FGF8 activity while inhibiting BMP5 and WNT3a signaling. Taken together, our data establish that the matrix protein anosmin is required for cranial neural crest formation, with funtional modulation of FGF, BMP, and WNT.

Generation of the cranial neural crest is known to require a balanced combination of FGF and BMP levels. However, it is poorly understood how the functions of such growth factors are controlled in the extracellular spaces. Here we identifiy the extracelluar matrix protein anosmin (Gga.14976.1.S1_at, clone ChEST132d10) as a novel molecule synthesized locally in the cranial neural crest of chicken embryos. Cranial neural folds (NF) and ventral neural plates (NP) were dissected from Hamburger & Hamilton stage 8 (HH8) embryos (80 to 14 embryos, n=4), and total RNA was analyzed using a GeneChip chicken genome arrays (Affymetrix)

Project description:The cranial neural crest (CNC) is a vertebrate-specific population that generates a huge diversity of derivatives, including the bulk of the connective and skeletal tissues of the head. How neural crest cells generate the appropriate cell types for distinct head regions over time remains unresolved. Here we profile RNA expression (scRNAseq) and chromatin accessibility (snATACseq) of the zebrafish cranial neural crest lineage at single-cell resolution from embryos to adults.

Project description:The cranial neural crest cells are pluripotent cells that provide head skeletogenic mesenchyme and are crucial for craniofacial patterning. Here, we analyzed the in vivo chromatin landscapes of mouse cranial neural crest subpopulations. Early postmigratory neural crest subpopulations contributing to distinct mouse craniofacial structures displayed similar chromatin accessibility patterns, yet differed transcriptionally. Accessible promoters and enhancers of differentially silenced genes carried H3K27me3/H3K4me2 bivalent chromatin marks embedded in large Ezh2-dependent Polycomb domains, indicating transcriptional poising. These postmigratory bivalent regions were already present in neural crest premigratory progenitors. At Polycomb domains, H3K27me3 antagonized H3K4me2 deposition, which was restricted to accessible sites. Thus, bivalent Polycomb domains provide a chromatin template for the regulation of cranial neural crest cell positional identity in vivo contributing novel insights into the epigenetic regulation of face morphogenesis.
