A gene regulatory network for neural induction

ABSTRACT: During early vertebrate development, signals from a special region of the embryo, the organizer, can re-direct the fate of non-neural ectoderm cells to form a complete, patterned nervous system. The process has generally been imagined as the result of a single signaling event, causing a simple switch. Here we undertake a comprehensive analysis, in very fine time-course, of the events following exposure of ectoderm to signals from the organizer. Using transcriptomics and epigenomics we generate a Gene Regulatory Network comprising 175 transcriptional regulators and 5,614 predicted interactions between them, with temporal dynamics from initial exposure to the signals to expression of mature neural plate markers. Using in situ hybridization and single-cell RNA-sequencing and reporter assays we show that neural induction by a grafted organizer mimics normal neural plate development. The study is accompanied by a comprehensive resource including information about conservation of the predicted enhancers in different vertebrate systems.

Single-cell RNA-Seq of VE-enriched cell populations from E5.5 and E6.25 wild type mouse embryos

Project description:We investigated the transcriptomic features of the Visceral Endoderm during early post-implantation mouse embryonic development by means of Single Cell RNA-Sequencing (RNA-Seq). To enrich for Visceral Endoderm cells, we labelled the outer cells of the embryo with a fluorescent membrane-labelling dye, before single-cell dissociation and FACS to select the labelled population.

Single-cell RNA-seq of mouse endothelial cells from three distinct embryonic locations

Project description:Endothelial cells are generated independently in the yolk sac, allantois and embryo proper. We dissected embryos from embryonic day 8.25 and captured individual cells from each of these positions within the embryo to investigate how their transcriptional signatures differ. Single-cell libraries were prepared for sequencing using the Smart-seq2 protocol.

A gene regulatory network for neural induction

Project description:During early vertebrate development, signals from a special region of the embryo, the organizer, can re-direct the fate of non-neural ectoderm cells to form a complete, patterned nervous system. This is called neural induction and has generally been imagined as a single signaling event, causing a switch of fate. Here we undertake a comprehensive analysis, in very fine time-course, of the events following exposure of ectoderm to the organizer. Using transcriptomics and epigenomics we generate a Gene Regulatory Network comprising 175 transcriptional regulators and 5,614 predicted interactions between them, with fine temporal dynamics from initial exposure to the signals to expression of mature neural plate markers.

Single cell RNA-Seq of wild type and caspase inhibitor treated mouse embryos at the stage E6.5

Project description:We investigated the features of cells eliminated during early mouse embryogenesis by means of Single Cell RNA-Sequencing (RNA-Seq). To enrich for apoptotic cells, we treated a number of embryos with caspase inhibitor, and then collected and sequenced single-cells isolated from them.

Single cell RNA-seq of Pgc+ cells in homeostasis and upon injury

Project description:The purpose of this experiment is to assess and characterize injury response of the gastric epithelial cells in trancriptomic level. Pgc+ epithelial cells (excluding parietal cells and enteroendocrine cells) were isolated from the mouse gastric corpus without injury or at 1d after DMP777-mediated acute injury.

Single-cell RNAseq of whole B6 mouse E8.25 embryos

Project description:Gastrulation represents a pivotal point in mammalian development, when the basic body plan is established and cells are specified into one of the three germ layers. This is followed by rapid diversification into specific lineages and the appearance of the various cell types required to build each of the organs. The rich variety of cell types present at this stage has never been rigorously characterised in any mammalian organism, and thus insight into cell fate decisions and the underlying regulatory networks have been inaccessible. We have used droplet based single-cell RNA-sequencing to address this by profiling ~20000 cells from C57BL/6 E8.25 mouse embryos.

Single cell analysis of iPSC-derived cortical organoids in biofunctionalized gelatin hydrogels

Project description:Human neural organoid models have become an important tool for studying neurobiology. In this work, we compared Matrigel to an N-cadherin peptide-functionalized gelatin methacryloyl hydrogel (termed GelMA-Cad) for culturing cortical neural organoids. Specifically, we compare five materials: (1) Matrigel, (2) GelMA-Cad with high crosslinker (HC), (3) GelMA-Cad with low crosslinker (LC), (4) GelMA HC and (5) GelMA LC. We determined that both mechanical properties and peptide presentation can tune cell fate and diversity in gelatin-based matrices during differentiation. Of particular note, cortical organoids cultured in GelMA-Cad produce higher numbers of neurogenic and ciliated radial glia and upper-layer excitatory neurons—an important population for modeling neurodegenerative disease—compared to GelMA and Matrigel controls.

Single-cell sequencing of cerebral organoids with familial Alzheimer’s disease (AD) mutation in PSEN1 and non-demented control

Project description:We set up a 3D model based on iPSCs derived from patients with familial forms of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and healthy non-demented control. We created cerebral organoids (COs), verified their ability to mimic AD in vitro, and used it to explore early events and the progression of AD pathogenesis. Our data reveal that despite similar expression of cell-type-specific genes during CO maturation in vitro, AD-iPSCs derived COs show limited tissue patterning and altered cellular development. These findings complement unique single-cell sequencing data of AD-iPSCs derived COs confirming this observation and uncovering that a sub-set of neurons in AD-iPSCs likely differentiates prematurely while at the same time retaining the expression of progenitor marker PAX6.
