ChIP-seq investigating the influence of astrocytes on the epigenetic landscape of developing cortical neurons

ABSTRACT: Astrocytes are implicated in neuronal development, particularly excitatory synaptogenesis, but their genome-wide impact is unclear. Using cell-type specific ChIP-seq we show that cortical astrocytes induce widespread changes in developing cortical neurons in histone marks associated with active open chromatin and repressed/condensed chromatin. Rat cortical neurons were maintained in the presence or absence of mouse astrocytes, ChIP-seq performed, and mixed-species ChIP-seq reads sorted according to species.

RNA-seq investigating the influence of astrocytes on developing cortical neurons

Project description:Astrocytes are implicated in neuronal development, particularly excitatory synaptogenesis, but their genome-wide impact is unclear. Using cell-type specific RNA-seq we show that cortical astrocytes induce widespread transcriptomic changes in developing cortical neurons. Rat cortical neurons were maintained in the presence or absence of mouse astrocytes, RNA-seq performed, and mixed-species RNA-seq reads sorted according to species. Cultures were also treated with TTX to abolish neuronal firing activity, to investigate the effects of the presence or absence activity-dependent signalling.

RNA-seq of mouse cortical tissue and astrocytes after anesthesia and induction of neuronal activity

Project description:General anesthesia is a common clinical procedure yet can result in long term CNS-adverse effects, particularly in the elderly, or dementia patients. Suppression of cortical activity is a key feature of the anesthetic-induced unconscious state, with activity being a well-described regulator of pathways important for brain health. However the extent to which the effects of anesthesia go beyond simple suppression of neuronal activity is incompletely understood, as are its effects on non-neuronal cell types such as astrocytes, which are important integrators of both neuronal activity and inflammatory signalling. In order to address these questions, we performed a combination of RNA-seq and TRAP-seq (Translating Ribosome Affinity Purification, where astrocyte-specific translating mRNAs are sequenced) on mouse cortical tissue and primary cortical neurons.

ChIP-seq of SATB1-bound regions in human ESC-derived dopaminergic (DA) neurons at different time points. ATAC-Seq and RNA-Seq of DA and cortical neurons (WT and SATB1-KO)

Project description:SATB1 is a genetic master regulator in dopaminergic neurons. We try to identify the downstream regulated genes and pathways of SATB1 in human dopaminergic and CTX neurons. The RNA-Seq experiment was performed to investigate the role of the genetic master regulator SATB1 in human dopaminergic neurons in comparison to cortical neurons. We generated a human embryonic stem cell knockout clone for SATB1 and differentiated this clone into either dopaminergic or cortical neurons. Immature dopaminergic (day 30 of differentiation), mature dopaminergic (day 50 of differentiation) and mature cortical neurons (day 30 of differentiation) were subsequently subjected to RNA-Seq. We compared wild type and SATB1-KO neurons at the afore mentioned time points, to characterize the regulatory role of SATB1 in the different neuron subtypes.

RNA-Seq of wild-type murine primary cortical neurons co-cultured in a transwell-based system with Mecp2 knock-out or wild-type cortical murine astrocytes

Project description:Rett syndrome (RTT; OMIM#312750) is a rare devastating neurodevelopmental disorder that represents the most common genetic cause of severe intellectual disability in girls. Mutations in the X-linked methyl-CpG-binding protein 2 (MECP2) gene have been reported in over 95% cases of classical forms of RTT. Although initial studies supported a role for MeCP2 exclusively in neurons, recent data indicate a function also in astrocytes, which emerged as critical players involved in RTT pathogenesis through non-cell autonomous effects. Indeed, Mecp2 knock-out (KO) astrocytes cannot properly support neuronal maturation of wilt-type (WT) neurons and our data demonstrated a detrimental effect also on synaptogenesis and synaptic maintainence. Nevertheless, the molecular mechanisms by which RTT astrocytes can impact on neuronal health remains unknown. In comparison to previous studies exploring the transcriptomic and proteomic profiles of KO astrocytes per se, we used an indirect strategy to unveil the molecular mechanisms responsible for their negative action on neurons. We thus analysed the molecular pathways deregulated in WT neurons cultivated under the influence of KO (n=8) versus WT (n=7) astrocytes, in a transwell-based co-culture system, that allows the exchange of paracrine signals preventing cell-to-cell contact. Astrocytes were seeded on transwell inserts and transferred on neurons at Div0; the co-cultures were maintained until Div14. WT cortical neurons cultivated alone were also included (n=5).

Single cell transcriptomics analysis of induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cortical neurons reveals frequent dual layer identity

Project description:Induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived cortical neurons present a powerful new model of neurological disease. Previous work has established that differentiation protocols produce cortical neurons but little has been done to characterise these at cellular resolution. In particular, it is unclear to what extent in vitro two-dimensional, relatively disordered culture conditions recapitulate the development of in vivo cortical layer identity. Single cell multiplex RT-qPCR was used to interrogate the expression of genes previously implicated in cortical layer or phenotypic identity in individual cells. Unexpectedly, 22.7% of neurons analysed frequently co-expressed canonical fetal deep and upper cortical layer markers, and this co-expression was also present at the level of translated protein. By comparing our results to available single cell RNA-seq data from human fetal and adult brain, we observed that this co-expression of layer markers was also seen in primary tissue. These results suggest that establishing neuronal layer identity in iPSC-derived or primary cortical neurons using canonical marker genes transcripts is unlikely to be informative. Single cell RNA-seq of 16 iPSC-derived cortical neurons. This dataset was used for normalization purposes for GSE67835.

Proneurogenic ligands defined by modeling developing cortex growth factor communication networks

Project description:The neural stem cell decision to self-renew or differentiate is tightly regulated by its microenvironment. Here, we have asked about this microenvironment, focusing on growth factors in the embryonic cortex at a time when it is largely comprised of neural precursor cells (NPCs) and newborn neurons. We show that cortical NPCs secrete factors that promote their maintenance while cortical neurons secrete factors that promote differentiation. To define factors important for these activities, we used transcriptome profiling to identify ligands produced by NPCs and neurons, cell surface mass spectrometry to identify receptors on these cells, and computational modeling to integrate these data. The resultant model predicts a complex growth factor environment with multiple autocrine and paracrine interactions. We tested this communication model, focusing on neurogenesis, and identified IFNÎ³, Nrtn and glial-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) as ligands with unexpected roles in promoting neurogenic differentiation of NPCs in vivo. We prepared E16 cortical neuron, E13 cortical precursor and co-cultured E16 cortical neuron and E13 cortical precursor cultures from three independent biological replicates.

Co-ordinate inhibiton of autism candidate genes by topoisomerase inhibitors [array]

Project description:Topoisomerases are necessary for the expression of neurodevelopmental genes, and are mutated in some patients with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). We have studied the effects of inhibitors of Topoisomerase 1 (Top1) and Topoisomerase 2 (Top2) enzymes on mouse cortical neurons. We find that topoisomerases selectively inhibit long genes (>100kb), with little effect on all other gene expression. Using ChIPseq against RNA Polymerase II (Pol2) we show that the Top1 inhibitor topotecan blocks transcriptional elongation of long genes specifically. Many of the genes inhibited by topotecan are candidate ASD genes, leading us to propose that topoisomerase inhibition might contribute to ASD pathology. 9 experiments, gene expression measured by Affymetrix microarray. 1) cultured mouse cortical neurons treated with 300nM topotecan vs vehicle-treated controls 2) cultured mouse neurons treated with 1uM topotecan vs vehicle-treated controls 3) cultured mouse cortical neurons treated with 3uM ICRF-193 vs vehicle-treated controls. 4) cultured mouse cortical neurons treated with 10 uM irinotecan vs vehicle-treated controls. 5) cultured mouse cortical neurons treated with 3-1000 nM topotecan vs vehicle treated controls 6) cultured mouse cortical neurons treated with lentivirus expressing shRNA against Top1 and Top2b vs scrambled shRNA controls 7) cultured mouse cortical neurons treated with DRB vs vehicle-treated controls 8) cultured mouse cortical neurons treated with hydrogen peroxide or paraquat vs vehicle-treated controls 9) cultured mouse cortical neurons treated with topotecan with or without subsequent drug washout, vs vehicle-treated controls.

The Role of SQSTM1 (P62) in Mitochondrial Function and Clearance in Human Cortical Neurons

Project description:We have assessed the importance of SQSTM1 in human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived cortical neurons with and without SQSTM1. By combining high-content imaging, RNA-Seq, and functional mitochondrial readouts, we showed that SQSTM1 depletion causes aberrations in mitochondrial gene expression and functionality in iPSC-derived neurons.

Gene expresssion in human iPSC-derived neurons from normal and SPG3A donors

Project description:We performed RNA-seq experiments on two samples (cortical neurons and spinal motor neurons) from normal induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), and another two samples (cortical neurons and spinal motor neurons) derived from SPG3A (an early onset form of hereditary spastic paraplegia) iPSCs. This initial experiment is to test the system and set up a baseline for future studies. Cortical projection neurons and spinal motor neurons were differentiated from same batch of iPSCs in parallel to minimize variations. The differentiation of cortical neurons and spinal motor neurons are based on protocols well-established in our group.
