Project description:To examine global gene expression profile of chicken early paraxial mesoderm differentiation, we microdissected stage 12HH chicken PSM regions into 20 pieces (10 pieces both left-right PSM), including the tail bud, the PSM and somites. We create microarray series using these fragments.

Project description:Within a given vertebrate species, the total number of vertebrae in each anatomical domain is precisely defined and shows little variation among individuals. In contrast, this number can vary tremendously between different species, ranging from as few as six vertebrae in frogs to as many as several hundred in some snakes and fish. Segmental precursors of the vertebrae, called somites are produced sequentially in the embryo from the presomitic mesoderm (PSM), until a final number characteristic of the species, is reached. Here, we show in the chicken embryo that, by controlling the rate of axis elongation, Hox genes control the total number of somites generated by the embryo. We observed that activation of the most posterior Hox genes in somite precursors of the tail bud correlates with an abrupt slowing-down of the speed of axis elongation. We show that progressively more posterior Hox genes, which are collinearly activated in somitic precursors of the epiblast, repress Wnt activity with increasing strength. This leads to a graded repression of the Brachyury/T transcription factor, reducing mesoderm ingression and slowing down the elongation process. Due to the continuation of somite formation, the PSM, which is not fed with sufficient supply of new cells posteriorly, becomes progressively exhausted, ultimately leading to an arrest of segment formation. Our data provide a conceptual framework to explain how the cross-talk between the segmentation clock and the Hox clock accounts for the diversity of vertebral formulae across animal species. Primitive streak aera corresponding to PSM precursors were dissected in Stage 9 somites chicken embryo overexpressing HoxA13 or a control H2B-Venus. The experiment was designed to have biological duplicate in each conditions. The gain-of-function was obtained by electroporating the embryo at Stage 5HH with a vector containing HoxA13 under the CAGGS promoter with an H2B venus reporter. In order to have enough material for the microarray, 7 embryos were pooled in each sample before the hybridization.

Project description:4 microarray time series was generated to identify cyclic genes of the segmentation clock in the mouse (2 time series), the chicken and the zebrafish. The right posterior half presomitic mesoderms (PSM) from 20 mouse embryos, 18 chicken embryos and 21 zebrafish embryos were dissected while the contralateral side of the embryo containing the left PSM was immediately fixed to be analyzed by in situ hybridization using a Lfng (fot mosue and chicken) or hes7 (zebrafish) probe to order the samples along the segmentation clock oscillation cycle. Probes were produced from RNA extracted from each of the dissected posterior half PSMs using a two-step amplification protocol and were hybridized to Affymetrix GeneChip MOE430A, MOE430 2.0, Affymetrix GeneChip chicken genome array, or Affymetrix GeneChip zebrafish array.

Project description:Stem cell-derived tissues have wide potential for modelling developmental and pathological processes as well as cell-based therapy. However, it has proven difficult to generate several key cell types in vitro, including skeletal muscle. In vertebrates, skeletal muscles derive during embryogenesis from the presomitic mesoderm (PSM). Treatment of mouse ES cells with a combination of the secreted Wnt activator R-Spondin3 and the BMP inhibitor Noggin generated cells expressing the early PSM marker Mesogenin1 (Msgn1) with high efficiency. To confirm their identity, we mapped gene expression profiles at successive stages of PSM differentiation in vivo and showed that the differentiated ES cells closely corresponded to the posterior PSM domain that expresses Msgn1 and then with time in culture matured to acquire the profile of the anterior Pax3 domain. When grafted into injured adult muscle in vivo these Pax3-expressing-cells generated large numbers of muscle fibers. Our system therefore efficiently produces myogenic precursors in vitro by recapitulating stepwise early myogenic differentiation in vivo. These findings should advance the development of cellular therapies for muscle degenerative diseases. Pre Somitic Mesoderm (PSM) were dissected into 7 pieces in Stage E8.5 Mouse embryo. The experiment was designed to have biological triplicate in each pieces. The PSM is a symmetric structure, left and right area were obtained from one embryo, another set of dissection was obtained from another embryo.

Project description:Stem cell-derived tissues have wide potential for modelling developmental and pathological processes as well as cell-based therapy. However, it has proven difficult to generate several key cell types in vitro, including skeletal muscle. In vertebrates, skeletal muscles derive during embryogenesis from the presomitic mesoderm (PSM). Using PSM development as a guide, we establish conditions for the differentiation of monolayer cultures of mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells into PSM-like cells without the introduction of transgenes or cell sorting. We differentiated mouse ESCs in serum-free medium supplemented with Rspo3 ( or as an alternative with Chir 9902) and the Bmp inhibitor LDN193189. In vivo, the PSM cells are first expressing Msgn1 (posterior PSM marker) and then mature to express Pax3 (anterior PSM marker). After 4 days of differentiation of mESCs, Msgn1-positive cells were FACS-sorted and their transcriptome analyzed. After 6 days of differentiation, Pax3-positive cells were sorted and their transcriptome analyzed. Mouse ESCs differentiated for 0, 4 and 6 days in serum-free medium containing a Wnt activator, a BMP inhibitor and DMSO, to study paraxial mesoderm in vitro

Project description:Sex chromosomes are characterized by a non-random content of genes with preferential expression in one sex. The mechanisms which are responsible for this phenomenon are, however, largely unresolved. To elucidate selective forces shaping the Z chromosome gene content in chicken, we analyzed microarray data from adult and embryonic gonads (the latter already available in GEO Series GSE8693). Experiment Overall Design: Total RNA from gonads of 8 males and 8 females was used for hybridization to Affymetrix GeneChip® Chicken Genome Arrays. Prior to hybridization the samples were combined in equal quantities into 4 pools (4 testes/ovary samples in each pool), 2 of them representing testis and 2 ovary. Experiment Overall Design: All four GeneChips met Affymetrix quality control criteria. Furthermore, all chips were checked by methods based on probe level robust linear model fitting provided by "affyPLM" package (Bolstad, 2007). None of the chips showed any signs of abnormality.

Project description:Recombinant chicken IFN1 was prepared as previously reported (Laidlaw et al, 2013) and was added in chicken embryo fibroblasts to a final concentration of 1000 U/ml. Confluent cells were treated with chicken IFNa or mock treated and incubated for six hours before harvesting. The experiment was repeated in triplicate with three different batches of CEFs.

Project description:Precise frequency discrimination is a hallmark of auditory function in birds and mammals. In the cochlea, tuning and spectral separation result from longitudinal differences in basilar membrane stiffness and numerous individual gradiations in sensory hair cell phenotypes, but it is unknown what patterns those phenotypes. Hypothesizing that morphogen levels might differ along the longitudinal axis of the developing cochlea, we sequenced the transcriptomes of the proximal, middle, and distal thirds of the chicken cochlea at E6.5, when postmitotic hair cells first form. Embryonic day 6.5 chicken cochlea were dissected. Three samples were collected from each cochlear duct by cutting the duct into three approximately equal sized pieces to produce proximal, middle, and distal pieces. Each sample contained a portion of the future tegmentum vasculosum and the basilar papilla sensory epithelium. The distal piece also contained the region fo the future lagena.
