Project description:<p>The human neocortex is created from diverse intermixed progenitors in the prenatal germinal zones. These progenitors have been difficult to characterize since progenitors - particularly radial glia (RG) - are rare, and are defined by a combination of intracellular markers, position and morphology. To circumvent these problems we developed a method called FRISCR (Fixed and Recovered Intact Single Cell RNA) for transcriptome profiling of individual fixed, stained and sorted cells. We developed and validated FRISCR on human embryonic stem cells. We then profiled primary human RG (96 - 132 days post conception) that constitute only 1% of the mid-gestation cortex. These RG could be classified into ventricular zone-enriched RG (vRG) that express ANXA1 and CRYAB, and outer subventricular zone-localized RG (oRG) that express HOPX. Our study identifies the first markers and molecular profiles of vRG and oRG cells, and provides an essential step for understanding molecular networks driving the lineage of human neocortical progenitors.</p> <p><i>Reprinted from Thomsen et. al.

Project description:The existence of neural stem cells (NSCs) in adult human brain neurogenic regions remains unresolved. To address this, we created a cell atlas of the adult human subventricular zone (SVZ) derived from fresh neurosurgical samples using single-cell transcriptomics. We discovered 2 adult radial glia (RG)-like populations, aRG1 and aRG2. aRG1 shared features with fetal early RG (eRG) and aRG2 were transcriptomically similar to fetal outer RG (oRG). We also captured early neuronal and oligodendrocytic NSC states. We found that the biological programs driven by their transcriptomes support their roles as early-lineage NSCs. Finally, we show that these NSCs have the potential to transition between states and along lineage trajectories. These data reveal that multipotent NSCs reside in the adult human SVZ.

Project description:The human neocortex is created from diverse progenitors that are intermixed with multiple cell types in the prenatal germinal zones. These progenitors have been difficult to profile with unbiased transcriptomics since progenitors-particularly radial glia (RG)-are rare cell types, defined by a combination of intracellular markers, position and morphology. To circumvent these problems, we developed a method called FRSCR for transcriptome profiling of individual fixed, stained, and sorted cells. After validation of FRSCR with human embryonic stem cells, we profiled primary human RG that constitute only 1% of the mid-gestation cortex. These data showed that RG could be classified into ventricle zone-enriched RG (vRG) that expressed ANXA1 and CRYAB, and outer subventricular zone-localized RG (oRG) that expressed HOPX. Our study identified the first markers and molecular profiles of vRG and oRG cells, and provides an essential step for understanding molecular networks that control the development and lineage of human neocortical progenitors. Furthermore, FRSCR allows targeted single-cell transcriptomic profiling of many tissues that currently lack live-cell markers.

Project description:<p>We sought to characterize cellular heterogeneity in the human cerebral cortex at a molecular level during cortical neurogenesis. We captured single cells and generated sequencing libraries using the C1TM Single-Cell Auto Prep System (Fluidigm), the SMARTer Ultra Low RNA Kit (Clontech), and the Nextera XT DNA Sample Preparation Kit (Illumina). We performed unbiased clustering of the single cells and further examined transcriptional variation among cell groups interpreted as radial glia. Within this population, the major sources of variation related to cell cycle progression and the stem cell niche from which radial glia were captured. We found that outer subventricular zone radial glia (oRG cells) preferentially express genes related to extracellular matrix formation, migration, and stemness, including <i>TNC</i>, <i>PTPRZ1</i>, <i>FAM107A</i>, <i>HOPX</i>, and <i>LIFR</i> and related this transcriptional state to the position, morphology, and cell behaviors previously used to classify the cell type. Our results suggest that oRG cells maintain the subventricular niche through local production of growth factors, potentiation of growth factor signals by extracellular matrix proteins, and activation of self-renewal pathways, thereby contributing to the developmental and evolutionary expansion of the human neocortex.</p> <p>For <b>study version 2</b>, we have updated this data set to include additional primary cells that we infer to represent microglia, endothelial cells, and immature astrocytes, as well as additional cells from the developing neural retina, and from iPS-cell derived cerebral organoids. The genes distinguishing these cell populations may reveal biological processes supporting the diverse functions of these cell types as well as vulnerabilities of specific cell types in human genetic diseases and in viral infections.</p> <p>For <b>study version 3</b>, we have updated the data set to include additional primary cells, including those published in Nowakowski, et al., Science 2017: "Spatiotemporal Gene Expression Trajectories Reveal Developmental Hierarchies of the Human Cortex" (<i>in press</i>)</p>

Project description:The largest germinal niche of the adult mammal brain locates at the ventricular zone (VZ), which is made up of adult neural stem cells (NSCs) and multiciliated ependymal cells (EPCs). Both NSCs and EPCs derive from radial glia (RG), whereas the transcriptomic dynamic changes of the cell fate continuum remain elusive. Here, we used TFEB ChIP-seq to investigate its role in during EPC differentiation.

Project description:This is a simple and reproducible protocol in which the hCOs generated are homogeneous and develop properly presenting proliferative ventricular zones (VZs) formed by neural and radial glia (RG) precursors that differentiate to give rise to mature neurons and glia cells. The hCOs at four weeks of maturation present additional cell types such as oligodendrocyte precursors, astrocytes, microglia and endothelial cells as shown by single‐cell RNA sequencing (scRNA‐seq) and immunohistochemistry (IHC).

Project description:We describe a so far uncharacterized, embryonic and self-renewing Neural Plate Border Stem Cell (NBSC) population with the capacity to differentiate into central nervous and neural crest lineages. NBSCs can be obtained by neural transcription factor-mediated reprogramming (BRN2, SOX2, KLF4, and ZIC3) of human adult dermal fibroblasts and peripheral blood cells (induced Neural Plate Border Stem Cells, iNBSCs) or by directed differentiation from human induced pluripotent stem cells. Moreover, human (i)NBSCs share molecular and functional features with an endogenous NBSC population isolated from neural folds of E8.5 mouse embryos. Upon differentiation, iNBSCs give rise to either (1) radial glia-type stem cells, dopaminergic and serotonergic neurons, motoneurons, astrocytes, and oligodendrocytes or (2) cells from the neural crest lineage. Here we provide array-based expression data of primary mouse Neural Plate Border Stem Cells (pNBSCs) derived from E8.5 mouse embryos and radial glia-type stem cells and neural crest progenitors derived thereof. The data provided reveal that pNBSCs can be directed into defined neural cell types of the CNS- and neural crest lineage.

Project description:Fate and behaviour of neural progenitor cells is tightly regulated during mammalian brain development. Metabolic pathways, such as glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation, that are required for supplying energy and providing molecular building blocks to generate cells, govern progenitor function. However, the role of de novo lipogenesis, which is the conversion of glucose into fatty acids through the multi-enzyme protein fatty acid synthase (FASN), for brain development remains unknown. Using Emx1Cre-mediated, tissue-specific deletion of Fasn in the mouse embryonic telencephalon, we show that loss of FASN causes severe microcephaly, largely due to altered polarity of apical, radial glia progenitors (APs) and reduced progenitor proliferation. Further, genetic deletion and pharmacological inhibition of FASN in human embryonic stem cell (ESC)-derived forebrain organoids identifies a conserved role of FASN-dependent lipogenesis for radial glia cell polarity and progenitor expansion in the developing human forebrain. Thus, our data establish a role of de novo lipogenesis for mouse and human brain development and identify a link between progenitor cell polarity and lipid metabolism.

The former comprise radial glia-type stem cells, while the latter are neural crest and mesenchymal stem cell-like cells. The data provided reveal that (i)NBSCs can be directed into defined neural lineages and that iNBSCs pass through successive developmental stages. These data support the notion that it is possible to reprogram human adult cells into expandable, multipotent NBSCs that define a novel embryonic neural stem cell population in human and mouse.

Project description:Radial glia (RG) in the neocortex sequentially generate distinct subtypes of projection neurons, accounting for the diversity and complex assembly of cortical neural circuits. Mechanisms that drive the rapid and precise temporal progression of RG are beginning to be elucidated. Here we reveal that the RG-specific transcriptional regulator PRDM16 promotes the transition of early to late phase of neurogenesis in the mouse neocortex. Loss of Prdm16 delays the timely progression of RG, leading to defective cortical laminar organization. Our genomic analyses demonstrate that PRDM16 regulates a subset of genes that are dynamically expressed between early and late neurogenesis. We show that PRDM16 suppresses target gene expression through limiting chromatin accessibility of permissive enhancers. We further confirm that critical target genes regulated by PRDM16 comprise neuronal specification genes, cell cycle regulators and molecules required for neuronal migration. These findings provide evidences to support that neural progenitors temporally shift gene expression program to achieve neural cell diversity.
