Project description:The mature mammalian retina results from a complex series of developmental events. A lot of work now exists on the organization, function, and development of mouse retina, and the high-throughput technologies for gene expression analyses have helped us to obtain deep insight into the mechanism about the genes that control the retinal neurogenesis and vasculogenesis.

Project description:In the developing retina, as in many other regions of the central nervous system, multipotent neural progenitor cells undergo unidirectional changes to produce differentiated cells in a precise spatiotemporal order. Here we profile the epigenetic and transcriptional changes that occur during retinal development in mice and humans. Although some progenitor genes and cell cycle genes were epigenetically silenced during retinogenesis, the most dramatic change was derepression of cell type–specific differentiation programs. We identified developmental stage–specific superenhancers and showed that the majority of epigenetic changes during murine retinal development are conserved in the human retina. To determine how the epigenome changes during tumorigenesis and reprogramming, we performed the same integrated epigenetic analysis of murine and human retinoblastomas and iPSCs derived from murine rod photoreceptors. The retinoblastoma epigenome mapped to the developmental stage when retinal progenitors switch from a neurogenic to a terminal pattern of cell division and murine retinoblastomas initiate earlier in development than human tumors. The epigenome of retinoblastomas was far more similar to that of normal retina than was the epigenome of retinal-derived iPSCs but we were able to identify retinal specific epigenetic memory. Together, these data provide an in depth view of the dynamic epigenome during neurogenesis and how that relates to developmental tumors and epigenetic memory in iPSCs produced from neurons.

Project description:Background: Adult zebrafish spontaneously regenerate their retinas after damage. Although a number of genes and signaling pathways involved in regeneration have been identified, the extent of mechanisms regulating regeneration is unclear. Small non-coding RNAs, microRNAs (miRNAs), that regulate regeneration of various tissues in lower vertebrates were examined for their potential roles in regulating zebrafish retinal regeneration. Results: To investigate the requirement of miRNAs during zebrafish retinal regeneration, we knocked down the expression of the miRNA-processing enzyme Dicer in retinas prior to light-induced damage. Dicer loss significantly reduced proliferation of Müller glia-derived neuronal progenitor cells during regeneration. To identify individual miRNAs with roles in retina regeneration, we collected retinas at different stages of light damage and performed small RNA high-throughput sequencing. We identified subsets of miRNAs that were differentially expressed during active regeneration but returned to basal levels once regeneration was completed. To validate the roles of differentially expressed miRNAs, we knocked down 6 different miRNAs that were upregulated in expression during regeneration and demonstrated that they have distinct effects on neuronal progenitor cell proliferation and migration during retina regeneration. Conclusions: miRNAs are necessary for retinal regeneration. miRNA expression is dynamic during regeneration. miRNAs function during initiation and progression of retinal regeneration. Identification of miRNAs before, during and after completion of zebrafish retinal regeneration

Project description:The histone methyltransferase complex PRC2 controls key steps in developmental transitions and cell fate choices. However, its roles in vertebrate eye development remain unknown. Here we report that in Xenopus PRC2 regulates the progression of retinal progenitors from proliferation to differentiation. We show that the PRC2 core components are enriched in retinal progenitors and downregulated with differentiation. Knockdown of the PRC2 core component Ezh2 leads to reduced retinal progenitor proliferation in part due to upregulation of the cdk inhibitor p15Ink4b. In addition, while PRC2 knockdown does not alter eye patterning, retinal progenitor gene expression or expression of the neural competence factor Sox2, it does cause suppression of proneural bHLH gene expression, indicating that PRC2 is critical for the initiation of neural differentiation in the retina. Consistent with this, knocking down or blocking PRC2 function constrains the generation of most retinal neural cell types and promotes a Mueller glial cell fate decision. We also show that Wnt/?-catenin signaling acting through the receptor Frizzled 5, but independent of Sox2, regulates expression of key PRC2 subunits in the developing retina. This is consistent with a role for this pathway in coordinating proliferation and the transition to neurogenesis in the Xenopus retina. Our data establishes PRC2 as a regulator of proliferation and differentiation during eye development. Xenopus embryos were injected at the 8-cell stage with 5ng Ezh2 ATG MO or 5ng control MO (scrambled sequence of Ezh2 ATG MO) together with 400 pg mRNA for GFP as a lineage tracer. At stage 27, GFP-positive eyes were isolated by microdissection. Pools of 20-25 eyes were used to prepare total RNA for each sample on the microarray. 4 control and 4 Ezh2 ATG MO samples were hybridized to Agilent 1-color microarrays.
