Project description:To isolate photoreceptor precursors fit for transplantation, we adapted a 3D differentiation protocol that generates neuroretina from mouse ES cells. We used an adeno-associated viral vector (pseudotype2/9)carrying a GFP reporter under the control of a Rhodopsin promoter (AAV2/9.Rhop.GFP)to select rod precursors. AAV2/9.Rhop.GFP+ rods were sorted at days 26 and 34 and post natal day P12.

Project description:Induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) technology has the potential to address the inaccessibility of the human brain by providing investigators with patient-specific neurons that can potentially be used to carry out molecular, electrophysiological and pharmacological studies {{855 Takahashi,K. 2006}}. Although iPSC technology was primarily conceived and developed as a means to bypass the use of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) for regenerative medicine, its potential for disease modeling may prove to be equally valuable, especially for neuropsychiatric disorders. A total of 1207 genes were found to be differentially expressed using LIMMA (>2-fold, p-value <0.05), and these genes were hierarchically clustered to form 5 groups based on their expression in day 0, 10 and 32. These were subjected to bioinformatics analysis by Gene Ontogoly (GO) and Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) to determine enrichment profiles and associated disease processes. The largest cluster (cluster III), which showed increasing expression in both day 10 and day 32 neurons, was found to be enriched with genes involved in a number of neuronal pathways including neurogenesis, neuronal differentiation, axon guidance and adhesion, among others. At a p-value of 0.05, we detected 645 and 383 genes up- and down-regulated between day 0 and day 10, respectively, and 146 and 280 genes up- and down-regulated between day 10 and day 32. In total, 1207 genes were found to be differentially expressed using LIMMA, and these genes were hierarchically clustered to form 5 groups.

Project description:Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a diverse category of transcripts with poor conservation and have expanded greatly in primates, particularly in their brain. We identified a lncRNA, which has acquired 16 microRNA response elements (MREs) for miR-143-3p in the Catarrhini branch of primates. This lncRNA termed LncND (neuro-development) gets expressed in neural progenitor cells and then declines in mature neurons. Binding and release of miR-143-3p, by LncND, can control the expression of Notch. Its expression is highest in radial glia cells in the ventricular and outer subventricular zones of human fetal brain. Down-regulation of LncND in neuroblastoma cells reduced cell proliferation and induced neuronal differentiation, an effect phenocopied by miR-143-3p over-expression and supported by RNA-seq analysis. These findings support a role for LncND in miRNA-mediated regulation of Notch signaling in the expansion of the neural progenitor pool of primates and hence contributing to the rapid growth of the cerebral cortex. Cerebral organoids were generated as in Lancaster et al. (Lancaster and Knoblich, 2014). Organoids were dissociated into single cells and captured on C1 Single-Cell Auto Prep Integrated Fluidic Circuit (IFC) (Fluidigm). The RNA extraction and amplification was performed on the chip as described by the manufacturer. We captured 68 single-cells on a C1 Single-Cell Auto Prep System (Fluidigm) and sequenced the RNA on a NextSeq500 System (Illumina) (Pollen et al., 2014). Out of 68 cells, we obtained 60 high quality cells.

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:Metabolic reprogramming is a hallmark of the immune cells in response to inflammatory stimuli. This metabolic process involves a switch from oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS)to glycolysis, or alterations in other metabolic pathways. However, most of the experimental findings have been acquired in murine immune cells and little is known about the metabolic reprogramming of human microglia. In this study, we investigated the transcriptomic and metabolic profiles of mouse and iPSC-derived human microglia challenged with the TLR4 agonist LPS. We found that both species displayed a metabolic shift and an overall increased glycolytic gene signature in response to LPS treatment. The metabolic reprogramming was characterized by the upregulation of hexokinases in mouse microglia and phosphofructokinases in human microglia. This study provides the first direct comparison of energy metabolism between mouse and human microglia, highlighting the species-specific pathways involved in immunometabolism and the importance of considering these differences in translational research.

Project description:Recent advances in three dimensional (3D) culture systems have led to the generation of brain organoids that share resemblance to different parts of the human brains; however, a 3D organoid model of the midbrain that contains functional midbrain dopaminergic (mDA) neurons has not been reported. In this study, we develop a method to differentiate human PSCs into a large multicellular organoid-like structure that contains distinct layers of neuronal cells with a transcriptomic profile that resembles human prenatal midbrain. Importantly, we detected electrically active and functionally mature mDA neurons, and dopamine production in our 3D midbrain-like organoids (MLOs). In contrast to human mDA neurons generated using non-3D methods or in the MLOs generated from mouse embryonic stem cells, our human MLOs uniquely produced neuromelanin-like granules that were structurally similar to those isolated from human substantia nigra tissues. Thus our MLOs bearing features of the human midbrain may provide a novel tractable in vitro system to study the human midbrain and its related diseases.

Project description:Human lung organoids (HLOs) were derived from human embryonic stem cell line H9 NIH registry #0062. Sequencing of HLOs was performed by the UM DNA Sequencing Core, using Illumina Hi-Seq platform and single-end 50 bp reads. The UM Bioinformatics Core downloaded the reads files from the Sequencing Core storage, and concatenated those into a single .fastq file for each sample. 3 HLOs were cultured for 65 days and 3 HLOs were cultured in vitro for 110 days. HLO Culture Protocol 4-day Activin A (R&D systems) differentiation protocol was used to derive definitive endoderm from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs). Cells were treated with Activin A (100ngml-1) for three consecutive days in RPMI 1640 media (Life Technologies) with increasing concentrations of 0%, 0.2% and 2% HyClone defined fetal bovine serum (dFBS, Thermo Scientific). The fourth day was a repeat of day 3 media (2% HyClone FBS). After differentiation into definitive endoderm, cells were incubated in foregut media (advanced DMEM/F12 plus N-2 and B27 supplement, 10mM Hepes, 1x L-Glutamine (200mM), 1x Penicillin-streptomycin (5,000 U/mL, all from Life Technologies)) with 200ng/mL Noggin (NOG, R&D Systems) and 10uM SB431542 (SB, Stemgent) for 4 days, SB, 500ng/mL FGF4 (R&D Systems), and 2 uM CHIR99021 (Chiron, Stemgent), and 1uM SAG (Enzo Life Sciences) for 4-6 days. After 4 days with treatment of growth factors, three-dimensional floating spheroids were present in the culture. Three-dimensional spheroids were transferred into Matrigel to support 3D growth. Spheroids were embedded in a droplet of Matrigel (BD Bioscience #356237) in one well of a 24 well plate, and incubated at room temperature for 10 minutes. After the Matrigel solidified, foregut media with 1% Fetal bovine serum (FBS, CAT#: 16000-044, Life Technologies) and 500ng/mL FGF10 (R&D Systems) were overlaid and replaced every 4 days. Organoids were transferred into new Matrigel droplets every 10 to 15 days.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been implicated in regulating multiple processes during brain development in various species. However, the function of miRNAs in human brain development remains largely unexplored. Here, we provide a comprehensive analysis of miRNA expression of regionalized neural progenitor cells derived from human embryonic stem cells and human fetal brain. We found mir-92b-3p and mir-130b-5p to be specifically associated with neural progenitors and several miRNAs that display both age-specific and region-specific expression patterns. Among these miRNAs, we identified miR-10 to be specifically expressed in the human hindbrain and spinal cord, while absent from rostral regions. We found that miR-10 regulates a large number of genes enriched for functions including transcription, actin cytoskeleton and ephrin receptor signaling. When overexpressed, miR-10 influences caudalization of human neural progenitors cells. Together, these data confirms a role for miRNAs in establishing different human neural progenitor populations. This data set also provides a comprehensive resource for future studies investigating the functional role of different miRNAs in human brain development. Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) were transduced with lentiviral vectors expressing either miR10a-GFP or miR10b-GFP. The expression of the vectors is Tet-regulated and they will only be expressed in the presence of Doxycycline. In order to detect direct targets of the miR10a and miR10b, we differentiated the trasduced hESCs for 14 days, and added doxycycline to only half of the groups - resulting in groups that are overexpressing miR10a or miR10b and some groups that are not overexpressing these miRNAs.
