Project description:Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have emerged as an important layer of genome regulation with common mechanistic themes including the formation of ribonucleoprotein complexes. Here, we present a novel X-linked lncRNA termed linc-Firre that escapes X-chromosome inactivation and forms trans-chromosomal interactions required for adipogenesis. Linc-Firre is exclusively nuclear and forms punctate expression foci on chromatin near its site of transcription on both X-chromosomes in human and mouse. Both the localization of linc-Firre and the association with the nuclear matrix protein hnRNPU require a conserved repeating RNA domain, R2D2. Collectively, these results reveal a lincRNA that escapes X-chromosome inactivation with a critical role in driving cell fate decisions by trans-chromosomal interactions. Replicate RNA-Seq analyses of oligo-mediated knockdowns of linc-FIRRE and hnRNPU in two different cellular contexts; HeLa cells and mouse embryonic stem cells.

Project description:miR-181a1/b1, miR-181a2/b2, and miR-181c/d belong to a highly conserved family of microRNA clusters, yet their role in vivo is poorly understood. Here we show that the miR-181a1/b1 cluster is absolutely essential for NKT development and is a critical determinant of thymocyte proliferation, survival and T-cell receptor α locus rearrangement. Furthermore, while individual ablation of miR-181a2/b2 and miR-181c/d revealed no overt phenotypes, compound mutant mice lacking both miR-181a1/b1 and miR-181a2/b2 display decreased survival, reduced body weight, and abnormal B cell development. Mechanistically, we reveal that miR-181 regulates PTEN, a key tumor suppressor whose abundance determines key metabolic adaptations required to meet the biosynthetic demands of highly proliferative tissues. These results provide important insights into the physiological function of this family of microRNAs in vivo; moreover, it places miR-181 as a central regulator of the PI3K signaling pathway and cellular metabolism.

Project description:Purpose: Genetic and clinical association studies have identified disrupted-in-schizophrenia 1 (DISC1) as a candidate risk gene for major mental illness. DISC1 is interrupted by a balanced chr(1;11) translocation in a Scottish family, in which the translocation predisposes to psychiatric disorders. We investigate the consequences of DISC1 interruption in human neural cells using TALENs or CRISPR-Cas9 to target the DISC1 locus. We sought to compare the gene expression profiles of human neural progenitor cells (NPCs) and neurons with interruption of the DISC1 gene in exon 2 (affecting all known coding transcripts) or exon 8 (near the site of the Scottish translocation, affecting longer transcripts). Methods: Wild-type and DISC1-targeted iPSCs (wild-type = "WT", exon 8 single allelic frameshift mutant = "ex8_wm", exon 8 biallelic frameshift mutant = "ex8_mm", exon 2 biallelic frameshift mutant = "ex2mm") were differentiated to NPCs and neurons using an embryoid aggregate method. NPC or neuronal cultures were used for RNA harvest and subsequent paired-end stranded sequencing of >50M reads/sample and 3-6 biological replicates per group. Results: We find that a subset of genes related to neuronal differentiation and development are dysregulated with DISC1 disruption at the NPC timepoint, whereas expression of genes related to neuronal function and signaling are altered at the neuronal timepoint. This study implicates DISC1 as a regulator of neuronal development. mRNA profiles of wild-type and DISC1-targeted human iPSC-derived neural progenitor cells (day 17) and neurons (day 50) by paired-end sequencing, with 3-6 biological replicates, using Illumina HiSeq

Project description:Schizophrenia and other psychiatric disorders are postulated to be developmental disorders resulting from synapse dysfunction. How susceptibility genes for major mental disorders could lead to synaptic deficits in humans is not well-understood. Here we generated induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from four members of a family in which a frame-shift mutation of Disrupted-in-schizophrenia-1 (DISC1) co-segregated with psychiatric disorders and further produced different isogenic iPSC lines via genetic editing. We showed that mutant DISC1 causes synaptic vesicle release deficits in iPSC-derived forebrain neurons. Mechanistically, mutant DISC1 dysregulates the expression of many genes related to synapses and psychiatric disorders and depletes wild-type DISC1 and the NCoR1 transcription co-repressor complex. Furthermore, mechanism-guided pharmacological inhibition of phosphodiesterases rescues synaptic defects in mutant neurons. Our study uncovers a novel gain-of-function mechanism through which the psychiatric disorder-relevant mutation affects synaptic functions via transcriptional dysregulation and provides insight into the molecular and synaptic etiopathology of psychiatric disorders. Two patient derived iPSC lines carrying heterozygous 4bp deletion in DISC1 gene and 1 related control were analyzed in biological triplicate

Project description:Schizophrenia is a debilitating neurological disorder for which no cure exists. Few defining characteristics of schizophrenic neurons have been identified and the molecular mechanisms responsible for schizophrenia are not well understood, in part due to the lack of patient material for study. Human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) offer a new strategy for studying schizophrenia. We have created the first cell-based human model of a complex genetic psychiatric disease by generating hiPSCs from schizophrenic patients and subsequently differentiating these cells to hiPSC-derived neurons in vitro. Schizophrenic hiPSC-derived neurons showed diminished neuronal connectivity in conjunction with decreased neurite number, PSD95-protein levels and glutamate receptor expression. Gene expression profiles of schizophrenic hiPSC-derived neurons identified altered expression of many components of the cAMP and WNT signaling pathways. Key cellular and molecular elements of the schizophrenic phenotype were ameliorated following treatment of schizophrenic hiPSC-derived neurons with the antipsychotic loxapine. 3 independent differentiations (biological replicates) for each of four control and four schizophrenic patients were analyzed.

Project description:Rosette neural stem cells (R-NSCs) represent early stage of neural development and possess full neural differentiation and regionalization capacities. R-NSCs are considered as stem cells of neural lineage and have important implications in study of neurogenesis and cell replacement therapy. However, the molecules regulating their functional properties remain largely unknown. Rhesus monkey is ideal model to study human neural degenerative diseases and plays intermediate translational roles as therapeutic strategies evolve from rodent systems to human clinical applications. In this study, we derived R-NSCs from rhesus monkey embryonic stem cells (rESCs) and systematically investigated the unique expressions of mRNAs, microRNAs, and signaling pathways by genome-wide comparison of the mRNA and microRNA profilings of ESCs, R-NSCs at early (R-NSCP1) and late passages (R-NSCP6) and neural progenitor cells (NPCs). Apart from the R-NSCP1 specific protein-coding genes and microRNAs, we identified several pathways including Hedgehog and Wnt highly activated in R-NSCP1. The possible regulatory interactions among the microRNAs, protein-coding genes and signaling pathways were proposed. Besides, many genes with alternative splicing switch were identified at R-NSCP1. These data provided valuable resource to understand the regulation of early neurogenesis and to better manipulate the R-NSCs for cell replacement therapy. mRNA and miRNA profiles for four stages in rhesus embryonic stem cell neural differentiation, eight samples in all

Project description:Brain organoids (BO) enabled the investigation of human corticogenesis in-vitro with an increasing range of protocols achieving its remarkable recapitulation. However, we lack a resource gathering fetal cortex-specific gene co-expression patterns and their behavior in BO. We complement the current knowledge with a benchmarking of BO versus human corticogenesis, integrating: transcriptomes from in-house differentiated cortical BO (CBO), in-house processed human fetal brain samples, analysis of transcriptomes from different BO systems and of pre-natal cortical samples from the BrainSpan Atlas.

Project description:Our purpose was to investigate genes and molecular mechanisms involved in patients with Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA). Fibroblasts from two unrelated clinically-identified patients (Coriell) were reprogrammed to pluripotency by retroviral transduction. These human induced Pluripotent Stem Cells (hiPSCs) were differentiated into neural stem cells (NSC) that mimicked the neural tube stage and retinal pigmented epithelial (RPE) cells that could be targeted by the disease. A genome wide transcriptome analysis was performed with Affymetrix Exon Array GeneChipM-BM-., comparing LCA-hiPSCs derivatives to controls. The aim was to identify differentially expressed genes which may be associated with early developmental defect before the establishment of mature retinal circuitry. We analyzed iPSC-derived neural stem cells from LCA patient's fibroblast (n=2) and iPSC-derived neural stem cells from healthy people fibroblast (n=2). A total of 21 samples were analyzed : 9 NSC derived from iPSC LCA and 12 NSC derived from wild-type iPSC.
