Project description:A control vs. genetic knockout experiment aimed at determining what RNAs are upregulated or downregulated in e11.5 mouse proximal limb tissue lacking the Lmx1b gene. Because Lmx1b is required for dorsal-ventral patterning of the limb, this screen gives insight into what putative downstream targets of Lmx1b contribute to dorsal-ventral patterning. Experiment Overall Design: The proximal portion of e11.5 hindlimb buds (~500um) was used for RNA extraction. Each array was hybridized with pooled cRNAs from both hindlimb buds of three embryos (6 hindlimbs/sample).

Because LMX1B is required for dorsal-ventral patterning of the limb, this screen gives insight into what putative downstream targets of Lmx1b contribute to dorsal-ventral patterning. The forelimb or hindlimb of wild-type controls or Lmx1b loss-of-function mutants was used for RNA extraction. Each array was hybridized with cDNAs of an individual limb.

Project description:Lmx1b is a homeodomain transcription factor responsible for limb dorsalization. Despite striking double-ventral (loss-of-function) and double-dorsal (gain-of-function) limb phenotypes, no direct downstream gene targets in the limb have been confirmed. To determine direct targets of Lmx1b during limb dorsalization (E12.5), we performed chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by next generation sequencing (ChIP-seq). Nearly 84% (n=617) of the Lmx1b-bound genomic fragments or intervals (LBIs) identified by two Lmx1b-ChIP-seqs overlap with chromatin regulatory marks indicative of potential cis-regulatory modules (PCRMs). In addition, 73 LBIs mapped to known cis-regulatory modules (CRMs) active during limb development. We compared Lmx1b-bound PCRMs to genes differentially expressed by Lmx1b at E12.5 and found 292 PCRMs within 1 Mb of 254 Lmx1b-regulated genes. Gene ontology analysis of these associated genes suggests that Lmx1b mediates dorsalization through the regulation of extracellular matrix production, bone/joint formation, axonal guidance, vascular development, cell proliferation and cell movement. We validated the functional activity of 2 PCRMs associated to Lmx1b-regulated genes, demonstrating activity and overlap with the associated gene during limb development. This is the first report to describe the genome-wide distribution of Lmx1b binding during limb development, directly linking Lmx1b to targets that accomplish limb dorsalization.

Project description:Lmx1b regulates dorsalization of limb fates, but the mechanism of this regulation has not been characterized. To identify candidate genes regulated by Lmx1b we compared the limbs from Lmx1b KO mice to wild type mice during limb dorsalization (e11.5-13.5). Differentially expressed genes that we common to all three stages examined were considered to be likely candidates for Lmx1b regulation and further evaluated. At 11.5 and 12.5 dpc, embryos were harvested and the limb buds with the limb girdles were isolated. Embryos at 13.5dpc were also harvested and their distal limb buds (zeugopods and autopods) were isolated. Embryos were genotyped to confirm Lmx1b homozygosity (-/- or +/+). RNA from embryonic forelimbs and hindlimbs of wild type (WT) and Lmx1b KO mice was harvested using the Rneasy Kit (Qiagen). RNA was pooled to decrease genetic variability, i.e., six limbs at 11.5 dpc, three limbs at 12.5 dpc and six limbs at 13.5 dpc. Duplicate samples were generated using different embryos for each stage and then hybridized to the Affymetrix GeneChip® Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (UCI, Irvine, CA).

Project description:Mammalian digit tip regeneration is linked to the presence of nail tissue, but a nail-explicit model is missing. Here, we report that nail-less double-ventral digits of ΔLARM1/2 mutants that lack limb-specific Lmx1b enhancers, fail to regenerate. To separate the nail’s effect from the lack of DV polarity, we also interrogate double-dorsal double-nail digits and show that they regenerate. Thus, DV polarity is not a prerequisite for regeneration and the nail requirement is supported. Transcriptomic comparison between wild-type and non-regenerative ΔLARM1/2 mutant blastemas reveals differential up-regulation of vascularization and connective tissue functional signatures in wild-type versus upregulation of inflammation in the mutant. These results, together with the finding of Lmx1b expression in the postnatal dorsal dermis underneath the nail and uniformly in the regenerative blastema opens the possibility of additional Lmx1b roles in the progression of digit tip regeneration, in addition to the indirect effect of mediating the formation of the nail.

Project description:During embryogenesis, the pancreas develops from separate dorsal and ventral buds, which fuse to form the mature pancreas. Little is known about the functional differences between these two buds or the relative contribution of cells derived from each portion to the pancreas after fusion. To follow the fate of dorsal or ventral bud derived cells in the pancreas after fusion, we produced chimeric Elas-GFP transgenic/wild type embryos in which either dorsal or ventral pancreatic bud cells expressed GFP. We found that ventral pancreatic cells migrate extensively into the dorsal pancreas after fusion, whereas the converse does not occur. Moreover, we found that annular pancreatic tissue is composed exclusively of ventral pancreas derived cells. To identify ventral pancreas specific genes that may play a role in pancreatic bud fusion, we isolated individual dorsal and ventral pancreatic buds, prior to fusion, from stage 38/39 Xenopus laevis tadpoles and compared their gene expression profiles. Morpholino-mediated knockdown of one of these ventral specific genes, transmembrane 4 superfamily member 3 (tm4sf3), inhibited dorsal-ventral pancreatic bud fusion as well as acinar cell differentiation. Conversely, overexpression of tm4sf3 promoted the development of annular pancreas. Our results are the first to define molecular and behavioral differences between the dorsal and ventral pancreas, and suggest an unexpected role for the ventral pancreas in pancreatic bud fusion.

Project description:Limb patterning relies in a large part on the function of the Hox family of developmental genes. While the differential expression of Hox genes shifts from the anterior-posterior (A-P) to the proximal-distal (P-D) axis around embryonic day 11 (E11), whether this shift coincides with a more global change of P-D versus A-P patterning program remains unclear. By performing and analyzing the transcriptome of the developing limb bud from E10.5 to E12.5, at single cell resolution, we have uncovered transcriptional trajectories which revealed a general switch from A-P to P-D genetic program between E10.5 and E11.5. Interestingly, the transcriptional trajectories at E10.5 all end with cells expressing either proximal or distal markers suggesting a progressive acquisition of P-D identity. Moreover, we observed that distally expressed Hox genes, namely Hoxa13 and Hoxd13, act as a key determinant for P-D patterning as their transcriptional control results in their distal restricted expression, which in turn restricts Hoxa11 in the proximal limb bud domain, in progenitor cells of the zeugopod. Finally, we identified three categories of genes expressed in the distal limb mesenchyme characterized by distinct temporal expression dynamics. As anticipated from previous results, HOX13 binding was observed within or in the neighborhood of several of these genes consistent with previous evidence suggesting that the transition from the early/proximal to the late/distal transcriptome of the limb mesenchyme largely relies on HOX13 function.
