Genome wide analysis of chick limb bud tissue treated with FGF2 for 24hrs (microarray)

ABSTRACT: During limb development, fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) govern proximal-distal outgrowth and patterning. FGFs also synchronize developmental patterning between the proximal-distal and anterior-posterior axes by maintaining sonic hedgehog (SHH) expression in cells of the zone of polarizing activity (ZPA) in the distal posterior mesoderm. SHH, in turn, maintains FGFs in the apical ectodermal ridge (AER) which caps the distal tip of the limb bud. Crosstalk between FGF and SHH signaling is critical for patterned limb development, but the mechanisms underlying this feedback loop are not well characterized. Implantation of FGF beads in the proximal posterior limb bud can maintain SHH expression in the former ZPA domain (evident 3hrs after application), while prolonged exposure (24hrs) can induce SHH outside of this domain. Although temporally and spatially disparate, comparative analysis of transcriptome data from these different populations enriched molecules required for FGF-mediated SHH regulation.

Meis genes regulate RA/FGF signaling to control multiple steps of limb development

Project description:Vertebrate limbs develop by integrating signals that control patterning along three main orthogonal axes. Flank-produced retinoic acid (RA) is initially required for limb induction and establishment of the apical ectodermal ridge (AER), a distal signaling center that produces fibroblast growth factors (FGFs), which are essential for limb growth and distalization. Once the AER is established, RA:FGF antagonism determines the restricted expression of a set of genes that control limb proximodistal patterning. Essential for this antagonism is the activation by FGF of the RA-degrading enzyme CYP26B1 in the distal limb bud. In addition, sonic hedgehog produced from the zone of polarizing activity (ZPA) is essential for distal limb anteroposterior patterning and contributes to RA reduction by cooperating in CYP26B1 activation. Meis transcription factors are expressed in the proximal limb bud, are activated by RA and can regulate proximodistal limb development; however, the mechanisms underlying their activity remain unknown. Here we studied Meis function in the mouse limb bud through Meis2 conditional overexpression and elimination of Meis1 and Meis2. We found that Meis activity is first required for limb bud initiation and the proper establishment of the AER and ZPA signaling centers, and subsequently for the development of proximal limb structures. Functional genomic analyses reveal that Meis is an important conveyor of the RA:FGF antagonism through the regulation of components of the RA and FGF signaling pathways, including CYP26B1. In addition, Meis regulates a set of proximal limb genes controlling proximodistal patterning and differentiation. Our work reveals a regulatory module essential for limb patterning and potentially co-opted in other patterning processes involving RA:FGF antagonism.

Early limb bud transcriptome analysis between anterior and posterior domain

Project description:Shh signal mediated by Gli family of transcription factors regulates digit growth and patterning in early limb development. Shh expression in the posterior margin of the limb bud defines the zone of polarizing activity. However, much less is know about downstream targets that mediate Shh signal functions. In this dataset, we include the expression data obtained from dissected anterior and posterior halves of mouse limb bud respectively. These data are used to obtain 889 transcripts that were upregulated 1.3 fold or more in the posterior limb bud, and 1189 transcripts that were enriched in the anterior limb bud at 1.3 fold or more. Two samples were analyzed. We generate pairwise comparisons between anterior and posterior limb tissues. Genes with a fold-change ≥1.3 were selected.

Dissecting human embryonic skeletal stem cell ontogeny by single-cell transcriptomic and functional analyses

Project description:Mapping the transcriptional landscape of human embryonic skeletogenesis at single-cell resolution during limb bud and primary ossification center (POC) formation. We found significant heterogeneity of stromal cells within the limb bud mesenchyme that specified proximal-distal and anterior-posterior patterning. Embryonic skeletal stem and progenitor cells first appeared during POC formation, which were highly enriched by CADM1 expression and could differentiate into osteoblasts, chondrocytes and periosteal mesenchymal stromal cells.

Integration of Shh and Fgf signaling in controlling Hox expression in cultured limb cells [4C-seq]

Project description:During embryonic development, fields of progenitor cells form complex spatial structures through dynamic interactions with external signaling molecules. However, how complex signaling inputs are integrated to yield appropriate gene expression responses is poorly understood. For instance several critical signals have been well characterized in the early limb bud, including Sonic hedgehog (Shh) and Fibroblast growth Factor 8 (Fgf8). While the former is expressed in the distal posterior mesenchyme where it acts as the mediator of anterior to posterior (AP) patterning, the latter is produced by the apical ectodermal ridge (AER) at the distal tip of the limb bud and directs the outgrowth and the proximal to distal (PD) organization of the limb. Here we use cultured limb mesenchyme cells to try and assess the response of the target Hoxd genes to these two factors. We find that they act synergistically and that both factors are required to get activation of Hoxd13 in limb mesenchymal cells. However, the analysis of the enhancer landscapes flanking the HoxD cluster reveals that the bimodal regulatory switch observed in vivo is not fully achieved under these in vitro conditions, suggesting the requirement for other factors.

Transcriptional trajectories highlight the transition from anterior-posterior to proximal-distal patterning in the early limb bud [scRNA-seq]

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.

Control of limb initiation and antero-posterior patterning by cooperation between Meis and Tbx transcription factors [ChIP-seq]

Project description:Meis1 and Meis2 are highly similar homeodomain transcription factors that regulate organogenesis through cooperation with Hox proteins. Overexpression experiments have suggested an essential role for Meis factors in limb proximo-distal patterning; however, loss-of-function experiments supporting this notion have not been reported. Meis1 and Meis2 are coexpressed during limb development, first in the lateral plate mesoderm, before limb induction, and then they become restricted to a proximal domain of the growing limb bud. Here, we report that complete double conditional Meis1/2 inactivation in the lateral plate mesoderm leads to limb agenesis. Meis factors cooperate with Tbx factors in this function, extensively co-binding with Tbx to genomic sites and co-regulating enhancers of fgf10, a critical factor in limb initiation. Limbs with three deleted Meis alleles develop a complete PD set of limb skeletal elements, but show proximal-specific skeletal hypoplasia and agenesis of posterior skeletal elements. This failure in posterior skeletal element specification reveals an early role of Meis factors in establishing the limb AP prepattern required for Shh activation at later stages. Our results uncover novel roles for Meis transcription factors in early limb development and identify their involvement in new molecular interaction networks that regulate organogenesis

Genome wide analysis of chick limb bud tissue treated with FGF2 for 3hrs (RNA-Seq)

Project description:During limb development, in addition to proximal to distal outgrowth, FGF regulates a number of factors necessary for SHH expression. To elucidate the molecules involved in FGF-mediated SHH expression we implanted FGF2 beads in HH23 chicken forelimb buds and excised the SHH-expressing tissue for transcriptome analysis. The hypothesis is that this transcriptome data along with data from SHH-expressing tissue after a 24hr treatment would highlight molecules necessary for SHH FGF-mediated SHH expression. Results from the overlap provide a short-list of SHH-related genes which require further testing to assess their role in mediating SHH expression.
