Circuit design features of a stable two-cell system

ABSTRACT: Cell communication within tissues is mediated by multiple paracrine signals including growth factors, which control cell survival and proliferation. Cells and the growth factors they produce and receive constitute a circuit, yet the design features of cell circuits involved in tissue homeostasis are unknown. Here we used computational and experimental approaches to characterize the features of cell circuits based on growth factor exchange between macrophages and fibroblasts, two cell types found in most mammalian tissues. We found that the macrophage-fibroblast cell circuit is stable and robust to perturbations. We employed analytical screening of all possible two-cell circuit topologies and defined the circuit features sufficient for stability, including environmental constraint and negative feedback regulation. Moreover, we discovered that cell-cell contact was essential for the stability of the macrophage-fibroblast circuit. These findings highlight general principles of cell circuit design, and provide a new perspective on quantitative understanding of tissue homeostasis.

Cooperative assembly confers regulatory specificity and long-term genetic circuit stability [RNA-seq]

Project description:In eukaryotes, links in gene regulatory networks are often maintained through cooperative self-assembly between transcriptional regulators (TR) and DNA cis-regulatory motifs, a strategy widely thought to enable highly specific regulatory connections to be formed between otherwise weakly-interacting, low-specificity molecular components. Here, we directly test whether this regulatory strategy can be used to engineer regulatory specificity in synthetic gene circuits constructed in yeast. We show that circuits composed of artificial zinc-finger TRs can be effectively insulated from aberrant misregulation of the host cell genome by using cooperative multivalent TR assemblies to program circuit connections. As we demonstrate in experiments and mathematical models, assembly-mediated regulatory connections enable mitigation of circuit-driven fitness defects, resulting in genetic and functional stability of circuits in long-term continuous culture. Our naturally-inspired approach offers a simple, generalizable means for building evolutionarily robust gene circuits that can be scaled to a wide range of host organisms and applications.

PROTEOMIC SIGNATURE OF THE CEREBELLUM IN SCHIZOPHRENIA

Project description:Malfunction of multiple regions in distributed brain circuits has been suggested to underlie the diversity of symptoms and cognitive impairments in schizophrenia. The cerebellum, as part of this circuit, may contribute to these symptoms for this reason we undertook a proteomic profile of this region. Here, we design a quantitative exploratory proteomic analysis in pooled grey matter of the cerebellum from schizophrenia and control individuals with the aim of discovering consistently altered biomarker proteins in schizophrenia.

Transcription profiling of Drososphila circadian neuronal circuit identifies novel circadian genes

Project description:Gene expression profiling of distinct members of a neuronal circuit has the potential to identify candidate molecules and mechanisms that underlie the formation, organization and function of the circuit. To this end, we report here the application of a novel method to characterize RNAs from small numbers of specific Drosophila brain neurons, which belong to the circadian circuit. We identified three different sets of mRNAs enriched in different subclasses of clock neurons: one is enriched in all clock neurons, a second is enriched in PDF-positive clock neurons and a third is enriched in PDF-negative clock neurons. Moreover, we characterized 2 novel genes, Fer2 and dnocturnin, one from each subgroup, which highlight subgroup-specific features and play important roles in circadian rhythms. The methodology is a powerful tool not only to dissect the cellular and molecular basis of circadian rhythms but also to molecularly characterize other Drosophila neuronal circuits. Experiment Overall Design: Circadican related neuronal celltypes (Tim, Pdf) or general neurons (Elav) were labeled by GFP or YFP using specific Gal4 drivers. Expression of those celltypes were profiled after manual sorting of those GFP or YFP positive cells. 3 biological replicates were collected (except adult small pdf cells).

Gene expression microarray for mouse ES cells vs. mouse ES cells treated with 48 hr N2B27

Project description:Core circuits of transcription factors stabilize stem and progenitor cells by suppressing genes required for differentiation. We do not know how such core circuits are reorganized during cell fate transitions to allow differentiation and lineage choice to proceed. Here, we asked how the pluripotency circuit, a core transcriptional circuit that maintains mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells in a pluripotent state, is dismantled as ES cells differentiate and choose between the neural ectodermal and mesendodermal progenitor cell fates. When ES cells are recultured from pluripotency maintaining conditions to the basal media N2B27, the expression of the pluripotency circuit genes begins to change. At 48 hours post N2B27 addition, the ES cells are competent to respond to differentiation signals. Here, our microarray analysis compares the gene expression profile of ES cells vs. the gene expression profile of cells that have been treated with N2B27 for 48 hours, reaching the competent state. 2 x mouse ES cells in pluripotency maintaining conditions. 3 x mouse ES cells after 48 hr of N2B27 culture

Smart-seq2 of spinal cord motor neurons reveals transcriptomic changes in mice with spinal cord injury after synergistic bidirectional electrical stimulation of specific frequencies

Project description:The characteristics of electrical signals-mediated neural circuits reconstruction remain poorly understood. We initially developed a spinal-muscle synergistic bidirectional electrical stimulation (SBES) protocol to mimic feedforward and feedback electrical signals in spinal sensorimotor circuits. The results indicate that sensorimotor circuits could be precisely reassembled in structure and function levels by 10-20 Hz SBES. To gain mechanistic insights into the reassembly of the spinal sensorimotor circuits with 10-20 Hz SBES, we performed gene expression profiling analysis in motoneurons. Gene ontology (GO) analysis showed that one group of GO terms accounted for a large fraction of the upregulated transcripts. This group includes axon growth-related cellular functions, such as cell adhesion, regulation of cell growth, and cell projection assembly. Statistical analysis of the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathways revealed sixteen signaling pathways were involved, two of which were related to the regulation of axonal regeneration (PI3K-Akt signaling pathway and cAMP signaling pathway). This study provides insights into neural signal decoding during spinal sensorimotor circuit reconstruction.

Time-series transcriptional profiling of MazF-induced E. coli populations

Project description:Synthetic circuits embedded in host-cells compete with cellular processes for limited intracellular resources. We show how funneling of cellular resources, after global transcriptome degradation by the sequence-dependent endoribonuclease MazF, to a synthetic circuit can increase production. Target genes are protected from MazF activity by recoding the gene sequence to eliminate recognition sites, while preserving the amino acid sequence. The expression of a protected fluorescent reporter and flux of a high-value metabolite are significantly enhanced using this genome-scale control strategy. Proteomics measurements discover a host factor in need of protection to improve resource redistribution activity. A computational model demonstrates that the MazF mRNA-decay feedback loop enables proportional control of MazF in an optimal operating regime. Transcriptional profiling of MazF-induced cells elucidates the dynamic shifts in transcript abundance and discovers regulatory design elements. Together, our results suggest that manipulation of cellular resource allocation is a key control parameter for synthetic circuit design.
