A single cell transcriptome atlas of the developing zebrafish hindbrain [scRNA-Seq]

ABSTRACT: Purpose: The goal of this study is to understand the progressive patterning of neurogenesis of the developing zebrafish hindbrain. 16hpf, 24hpf and 44hpf zebrafish hindbrains were used for single-cell RNA-sequencing with the aim to uncover hindbrain development. Methods: 40 microdissected hindbrains per each stage were dissociated at loaded into the 10x Genomics Chromium Platform, and sequenced using Illumina HiSeq 4000. Conclusions: Our study constitute a resource of hindbrain gene expression during development. We have identified transcriptional programs involved in: rhombomere segmental identity, dorso-ventral patterning, boundary and centre progenitor cells and temporal regulation of neurogenesis.

scMultiome analysis identifies embryonic hindbrain progenitors with mixed rhombomere identities

Project description:Rhombomeres serve to position neural progenitors in the embryonic hindbrain, thereby ensuring appropriate neural circuit formation, but the molecular identities of individual rhombomeres and the mechanism whereby they form have not been fully established. Here we apply scMultiome analysis in zebrafish to molecularly resolve all rhombomeres for the first time. We find that rhombomeres become molecularly distinct between 10hpf (end of gastrulation) and 13hpf (early segmentation). While the mature hindbrain consists of alternating odd- versus even-type rhombomeres, our scMultiome analyses do not detect extensive odd versus even characteristics in the early hindbrain. Instead, we find that each rhombomere displays a unique gene expression and chromatin profile. Prior to the appearance of distinct rhombomeres, we detect three hindbrain progenitor clusters (PHPDs) that correlate with the earliest visually observed segments in the hindbrain primordium and that represent prospective rhombomere r2/r3 (possibly including r1), r4 and r5/r6, respectively. We further find that the PHPDs form in response to Fgf and RA morphogens and that individual PHPD cells co-express markers of multiple mature rhombomeres. We propose that the PHPDs contain mixed-identity progenitors and that their subdivision into individual mature rhombomeres requires resolution of these mixed-identity cell states.

Hoxb1 gene expressing Hox-A1 protein: Altered transcriptional profile in rhombomere 4 at E10.5

Project description:This study analyzed mRNA profiles in rhombomere 4 of E10.5 mouse knock-in embryos expressing either normal endogenous Hox-B1 protein or the paralogous Hox-A1 protein from the Hoxb1 locus. The Hox-A1 protein was found to be detectably less efficacious than Hox-B1 in promoting neurogenesis in the basal plate of rhombomere 4 and its transcriptional profile shared several similarities with the Hoxb1 mutant. Keywords: gene swap, knock-in, hindbrain development, rhombomere 4

Generation of caudal-type serotonin neurons and hindbrain fate organoids from hPSCs

Project description:Serotonin (5-HT) neurons, the major components of the raphe nuclei, arise from ventral hindbrain progenitors. Based on the anatomical location and axonal projection, 5-HT neurons are coarsely divided into rostral and caudal groups. Here, we propose a novel strategy to generate hindbrain 5-HT neurons from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs), which involves the formation of ventral-type neural progenitor cells (NPCs) and stimulation of the hindbrain 5-HT neural development. A caudalizing agent, retinoid acid (RA), was used to direct the cells into the hindbrain cell fate. Approximately 30-40% of hPSCs successfully developed into 5-HT-expressing neurons using our protocol, with the majority acquiring a caudal rhombomere identity (r5-8). We further modified our monolayer differentiation system to generate 5-HT neuron-enriched hindbrain-like organoids. We have also suggested downstream applications of our 5-HT monolayer and organoid cultures to study neuronal response to gut microbiota. Our methodology could become a powerful tool for future studies related to 5-HT neurotransmission.

Identification of downstream targets of zebrafish Hoxb1a

Project description:Despite 30 years of Hox gene study we have a remarkably limited knowledge of the downstream target genes that Hox transcription factors regulate to confer regional identity. Here, we have used a microarray approach to identify genes that function downstream of a single vertebrate Hox gene, zebrafish hoxb1a. This gene plays a critical and conserved role in vertebrate hindbrain development, conferring identity to hindbrain rhombomere 4. For example, zebrafish Hoxb1a, similar to mouse Hoxb1, is required for the migration of r4-derived facial branchiomotor neurons into the posterior hindbrain. We have screened microarrays carrying more than 16,000 expressed sequence tags (ESTs) for genes that are differentially regulated in normal versus Hoxb1a-deficient rhombomere 4 tissue. Using this approach, we have identified both positively and negatively regulated candidate Hoxb1a target genes. We have used in situ hybridization to validate twelve positively regulated Hoxb1a targets. These downstream targets are expressed in a variety of subdomains within r4, with one gene, a novel prickle homolog (pk1b), expressed specifically within the facial branchiomotor neurons. Using morpholino knock-down we show that the Hoxb1a target Pk1b is required for facial neuron migration, a single aspect of rhombomere 4 identity.

Project description:Hoxb1 is required for proper specification of rhombomere 4 and the facial motor neurons. This study analyzed gene expression in the corresponding hindbrain segment of E10.5 mutant embryos. Several genetic pathways were found altered, including transcription factors such as Phox2b, Gata3, Nkx2-2 and Nkx6-1. Keywords: hindbrain development, rhombomere 4, Hoxb1

Identification of chromatin states during zebrafish gastrulation using CUT&RUN and CUT&Tag

Project description:Here we describe successful implementation of CUT&Tag for profiling protein-DNA interactions in zebrafish embryos. We optimized CUT&Tag protocol to generate high resolution maps of enrichment for the histone variant H2A.Z during zebrafish development. We were able to establish dynamics of H2A.Z genomic patterning from shield stage to 24hpf embryos. Our work demonstrates the power of combining CUT&Tag with the strengths of the zebrafish system to better understand the changing embryonic chromatin landscape and its roles in shaping development.
