Human Huntington’s Disease iPSC-derived cortical neurons display altered transcriptomics, morphology and electrophysiological maturation

Project description:Huntington's disease (HD) is a neurodegenerative disease caused by an expanded CAG repeat in the Huntingtin (HTT) gene. Induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) models of HD provide an opportunity to study the mechanisms underlying disease pathology in patient tissues relevant to disease. Murine studies have demonstrated that HTT is intricately involved in corticogenesis, and mutant (mt) HTT cannot compensate for the loss of non-CAG-expanded HTT. However, the critical effect of mtHTT in human corticogenesis has not yet been specifically explored and due to inherent differences in cortical development and timing between humans and mice. We therefore differentiated HD and non-diseased iPSCs into functional cortical neurons. While HD patient iPSCs can be successfully differentiated towards a cortical fate in culture, the resulting neurons display transcriptomic, morphological and functional phenotypes indicative of altered neurodevelopment. This is the first demonstration of altered corticogenesis from HD human patient cells, further supporting the potential neurodevelopmental aspect of HD.

Effects of TrkB-ICD overexpression on the morphology, activity and transcriptome of cultured primary cortical neurons

Project description:In Alzheimer’s disease (AD), amyloid β (Aβ)-triggered cleavage of TrkB-FL impairs brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) signaling, thereby compromising neuronal survival, differentiation, as well as synaptic transmission and plasticity. In addition to compromising canonical BDNF signalling pathways, TrkB-FL cleavage produces an intracellular fragment (TrkB-ICD), which was shown to accumulate in the nucleus and to display tyrosine kinase activity. To dissect the role of TrkB-ICD overexpression from the loss of endogenous signaling throught TrkB-FL, we used lentiviruses to overexpress the TrkB-ICD sequence in cultured primary cortical neurons and performed morphological, electrophysiological and transcriptomics studies. While TrkB-ICD overexpression did not affect cell survival, it caused a significant decrease in the number of dendritic spines, both compared to untransduced and GFP-transduced neurons. Furthermore, TrkB-ICD overexpressing neurons presented a hyperpolarized resting membrane potential and increased frequency of miniature excitatory postsynaptic currents (mEPSCs). Finally, TrkB-ICD overexpression was associated with the upregulation of genes involved in (i) neuronal survival, growth and differentiation; (ii) neuronal cytoarchitecture and spine morphology; (iii) neurodegenerative processes, including AD; and (iv) synaptic transmission and plasticity. Overall, these results show that TrkB-ICD overexpression causes dendritic spine loss, alters excitatory synaptic transmission and causes transcriptome-wide changes, namely in genes coding for proteins involved in synaptic processes.

Effects of Morphology Constraint on Electrophysiological Properties of Cortical Neurons.

Project description:There is growing interest in engineering nerve cells in vitro to control architecture and connectivity of cultured neuronal networks or to build neuronal networks with predictable computational function. Pattern technologies, such as micro-contact printing, have been developed to design ordered neuronal networks. However, electrophysiological characteristics of the single patterned neuron haven't been reported. Here, micro-contact printing, using polyolefine polymer (POP) stamps with high resolution, was employed to grow cortical neurons in a designed structure. The results demonstrated that the morphology of patterned neurons was well constrained, and the number of dendrites was decreased to be about 2. Our electrophysiological results showed that alterations of dendritic morphology affected firing patterns of neurons and neural excitability. When stimulated by current, though both patterned and un-patterned neurons presented regular spiking, the dynamics and strength of the response were different. The un-patterned neurons exhibited a monotonically increasing firing frequency in response to injected current, while the patterned neurons first exhibited frequency increase and then a slow decrease. Our findings indicate that the decrease in dendritic complexity of cortical neurons will influence their electrophysiological characteristics and alter their information processing activity, which could be considered when designing neuronal circuitries.

Morphological, electrophysiological and transcriptomic profiling of single neurons using Patch-seq

Project description:The mammalian neocortex is a layered sheet of neural tissue that mediates complex cognitive processes including perception and cognition. Despite its importance, we still lack detailed knowledge of the cellular components of the neocortex. Integrating morphological, electrophysiological and molecular classification schemes into a common framework for defining cell types is challenging due to the limited scope of most single-cell analyses. Here, we developed a protocol for high-throughput electrophysiological and transcriptomic analysis of single neurons that combines whole-cell recordings and single-cell RNA-sequencing, which we call Patch-seq. Using this approach, we fully characterized the electrophysiological and molecular profiles of ~50 neocortical neurons, and show that gene expression patterns can be used to infer the morphological and physiological properties of individual neurons and their corresponding cell type. Our results shed light on the molecular underpinnings of neuronal diversity and demonstrate a path forward for comprehensive cell type characterization in the nervous system.

Colony morphology altered by Myh9 deficiency uncoupled from pluripotency

Project description:The naïve mouse embryonic stem cells, characterized by high nuclear/cytoplasmic ratio, and dome-shaped colonies with smoothly contoured edges, exhibit self-renewal and pluripotency. However, it is unclear about the biological significance of dome-like morphology in relation to pluripotency. Here, we generate stable ES cell lines with a flat morphology, capable of sustained monolayer growth and efficient single-cell clonogenic capacity, by knocking out non-muscle myosin heavy chain IIA. Notably, even when deprived of the typical dome-like colony morphology, the ES cells retain their self-renewal capacity and pluripotency to differentiate into the three germ layers. Our data disprove the long-standing paradigm in stem cell field that the dome-shaped colony architecture is intrinsically linked to naïve pluripotency, instead demonstrating that core pluripotency circuitry operates independently of this morphological constraint.

Huntington’s disease as a lamin B1 nuclear envelopathy

Project description:Lamins, the major structural proteins within the nuclear lamina, are crucial for the functionality of cellular nucleus and their alterations are involved in the so-called laminopathies. We previously found that Huntington’s disease (HD), a hereditary neurodegenerative disorder caused by an expansion of a CAG repeat in the huntingtin (htt) gene, courses with increased lamin B protein levels in specific brain regions in both mouse models and patients. We now show that these changes are mostly restricted to lamin B1, occur in striatal medium-sized spiny neurons and CA1 hippocampal neurons, and are accompanied by altered nuclear morphology, nucleocytoplasmic transport disruption and un-structuring of lamin-associated chromatin domains. Normalization of lamin B1 levels by betulinic acid administration in the R6/1 mouse model of HD results in beneficial restoring of nuclear lamina homeostasis and prevention of motor and cognitive dysfunction, opening a window for a new therapeutic approach for HD and other B1-type laminophaties.

Effect of Hypergravity on Transcriptomic and Electrophysiological Properties of Rat Ventricular Cardiomyocytes

Project description:This study investigates the impact of hypergravity (4g for 14 days) on the transcriptomic and electrophysiological profiles of rat ventricular cardiomyocytes. Using RNA sequencing, we identified significant changes in the expression of mechanically gated and mechanosensitive ion channel genes. Electrophysiological analyses revealed increased sensitivity of stretch-activated currents (ISAC) to mechanical stimuli in hypergravity-exposed cardiomyocytes. These findings highlight how altered gravitational conditions modulate cardiac cellular responses, with implications for understanding mechanoelectric feedback in both physiological and extreme environments.
