Gene expression signatures of SATB2-defficient vs wild-type adult neocortex

ABSTRACT: During CNS development, the nuclear protein SATB2 is expressed in superficial cortical layers and determines projection neuron identity. In the adult CNS, SATB2 is expressed in pyramidal neurons of all cortical layers and is a regulator of synaptic plasticity and long-term memory. Common variation in SATB2 locus confers risk of schizophrenia whereas rare, de novo structural and single nucleotide variants cause severe intellectual disability and absent or limited speech. To which extent symptoms in SATB2-related human pathologies depend on developmental or adult functions of the protein remains to be established. To characterize differences in SATB2 molecular function in developing vs adult neocortex, we compared SATB2 protein interactomes and SATB2-driven gene expression programs at the two ontogenetic stages by co-IP mass spectrometry and RNAseq analyses, respectively. Our results demonstrated that 1) SATB2 interacts with different protein networks at the two ontogenetic stages, with a switch from transcriptional repression towards organization of chromatin structure and 2) SATB2 determines differential transcriptional programs in neonatal vs adult cortex.

Protein translation rate determines neocortical neuron fate

Project description:The mammalian neocortex comprises enormous diversity regarding cell types, morphology, and connectivity. In this work, we discover a unique sensitivity in the development of neurons expressing Satb2, a determinant of upper cortical layers, to translation rates. We find specific upregulation of protein synthesis in the progenitors of later-born neurons and show that translation rates are inherent features of cortical neuron subtypes. In a small molecule screening, we reveal Ire1a as a regulator of Satb2 and global translation rates. In the developing brain, Ire1a coordinates ribosome traffic and the expression of eIF4A1. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the mRNA translation of Satb2 depends on its 5’-untranlsated region and requires eIF4A1 helicase activity. Here, we show that cortical neuron diversity is generated by mechanisms operating beyond the gene transcription, with Ire1a-safeguarded proteostasis serving as an essential regulator of brain development factors, and ribosomal proteins. Translation rates distinguish early and late neuronal progenitors and early- and late-born postmitotic neurons, indicative of developmental stage- and differentiation-specific requirements for protein synthesis rates in the formation of upper and deeper cortical layers. We demonstrate that specification and polarization of upper layer neurons is uniquely sensitive to translation rate, in contrast to deep layer neurons. Our data shed light onto the post-transcriptional source of cellular diversity in the developing cortex and unveils stress-independent homeostatic functions of Ire1a.

Meningeal cells contribute to postnatal cortical neurogenesis.

Project description:Postnatal brain neurogenesis in mammals is believed to be restricted to rare germinative remnants of the neuroepithelium. In this study, we discovered that, in the postnatal brain, a subset of embryonically derived progenitors is present in meningeal substructures. These cells migrate from the meningeal substructures to the retrosplenial and visual motor cortex and differentiate into (electrically) functional integrated neurons. Lineage tracing analysis revealed that this subset of neural progenitors originate largely from PDGFR+ cells. PDGFR-derived cells differentiate mostly into Satb2+ neurons in cortical layers I-IV. Thus, a reservoir of embryonically derived progenitors in the meninges contributes to postnatal cerebral cortical neurogenesis.

SATB2-LEMD2 interaction links nuclear shape plasticity to regulation of cognition-related genes

Project description:SATB2, encoding a nuclear chromosomal scaffolding protein, is a schizophrenia risk gene and genetically associated with human intelligence. How SATB2 affects cognition at molecular level is currently unknown. Our data suggest that interactions between SATB2 and the inner nuclear membrane protein LEMD2 orchestrate gene expression programs in pyramidal neurons that are linked to cognitive ability and psychiatric disorder etiology. We show that LEMD2, a candidate component of the A-heterochromatin tether, binds to SATB2 and the two proteins exert overlapping cellular functions. SATB2 is essential for neuronal activity-triggered nuclear envelope plasticity, which requires LEMD2 as well as the ESCRT-III/VPS4 complex. LEMD2-depletion in cortical neurons, like SATB2 ablation, affects the expression of multiple neuronal activity-regulated genes. The gene-sets regulated by LEMD2 and SATB2 significantly overlap and the LEMD2 gene-set is enriched for SATB2-bound genes. In human genetic data, LEMD2-regulated genes are enriched for loss-of-function mutations reported in autism, intellectual disability and schizophrenia and are, like SATB2-regulated genes, associated with cognitive function.

Astrocyte layers in the mammalian cerebral cortex revealed by a single-cell in situ transcriptomic map

Project description:While the cerebral cortex is organized into six excitatory neuronal layers, it is unclear whether glial cells show distinct layering. Here, we developed a high-content pipeline, the Large-area Spatial Transcriptomic (LaST) map, which can quantify single-cell gene expression in situ. Screening 46 candidate genes for astrocyte diversity across the mouse cortex, we identified superficial, mid, and deep astrocyte identities in gradient layer patterns that were distinct from those of neurons. Astrocyte layer features, established in early postnatal cortex, mostly persisted in adult mouse and human cortex. Single cell RNA sequencing and spatial reconstruction analysis further confirmed the presence of astrocyte layers in the adult cortex. Satb2 and Reeler mutations that shifted neuronal post-mitotic development were sufficient to alter glial layering, indicating an instructive role for neuronal cues. Finally, astrocyte layer patterns diverged between mouse cortical regions. These findings indicate that excitatory neurons and astrocytes are organized into distinct lineage-associated laminae.

RNA-seq of prefrontal cortex in adult human, chimp and macaque

Project description:The human brain has changed dramatically since humans diverged from our closest living relatives, chimpanzees and the other great apes. However, the genetic and developmental programs underlying this divergence are not fully understood. Here, we generate single-nucleus RNA-seq data of human, chimpanzee and macaque adult prefrontal cortex. Spatial information is obtained by isolating nuclei from sequential sections sliced from basal to apical positions. Bulk RNA-seq is performed for the same sections to determine positional information of the sections, by comparing the section transcriptome with published transcriptome data of cortical layers in human, chimpanzee and macaque.

Chromatin reorganization during myoblast differentiation involves the caspase-dependent removal of SATB2 [ChIP-seq]

Project description:Induction of lineage-specific gene programs are strongly influenced by alterations in local chromatin architecture. However, key players that impact this genome reorganization remain largely unknown. Here, we report that removal of special AT-rich binding protein 2 (SATB2), a nuclear protein known to bind matrix attachment regions, is a key event in initiating myogenic differentiation. Deletion of myoblast SATB2 in vitro initiates chromatin remodeling and accelerates differentiation, while in vivo ablation depletes the muscle progenitor pool. Genome wide analysis indicates that SATB2 binding influences both chromatin loop and sub-TAD domain formation. These chromatin changes are both repressive and inductive, as loss of SATB2 leads to expression of differentiation regulatory factors and inhibition of genes that impair this process. Finally, we noted that the differentiation-specific decline in SATB2 protein is dependent on a caspase 7-mediated cleavage event. Taken together, this study demonstrates that temporal control of SATB2 protein is critical for shaping the chromatin environment and coordinating the myogenic differentiation program
