OTX2 homeoprotein regulates adult choroid plexus activity

ABSTRACT: Choroid plexus secretes cerebrospinal fluid important for brain development and homeostasis. The OTX2 homeoprotein is critical for choroid plexus development and remains highly expressed in adult choroid plexus. Through RNA sequencing analyses of constitutive and conditional knockdown adult mouse models, we reveal putative roles for OTX2 in choroid plexus function, including cell signaling and adhesion, and show that it regulates the expression of factors secreted into cerebrospinal fluid, notably transthyretin. We also show that Otx2 expression impacts choroid plexus immune and stress responses, and also affects splicing which leads to changes in mRNA isoforms of proteins implicated in oxidative stress response and DNA repair. Through mass spectrometry analysis of OTX2 protein partners in the choroid plexus, and in known non-cell autonomous target regions such as visual cortex and subventricular zone, we identified putative targets involved in cell adhesion, chromatin structure and RNA processing. Thus, OTX2 retains important roles in choroid plexus function and brain homeostasis throughout life.

Choroid plexus mast cells drive tumor-associated hydrocephalus

Project description:Tumor-associated hydrocephalus (TAH) is a common and lethal complication of brain metastases. Although other factors beyond mechanical obstructions have been suggested, the exact mechanisms are unknown. Using single-nucleus RNA-sequencing and spatial transcriptomics, we find that a distinct population of mast cells locate in the choroid plexus and dramatically increase during TAH. Genetic fate-tracing and intracranial mast cell-specific tryptase knockout showed that choroid plexus mast cells (CPMCs) disrupt cilia of choroid plexus epithelia via the tryptase-PAR2-FoxJ1 pathway and consequently increase cerebrospinal fluid production. Mast cells are also found in the human choroid plexus. Levels of tryptase in cerebrospinal fluid are closely associated with clinical severity of TAH. BMS-262084, an inhibitor of tryptase, can cross blood-brain-barrier, inhibits TAH in vivo and alleviates mast cell-induced damage of epithelial cilia in a human pluripotent stem cell-derived choroid plexus organoid model. Collectively, we uncover the function of CPMCs and provide an attractive therapy for TAH.

Choroid Plexus Gene Expression in wild-type (wt) and ApoE-deficient Mouse Choroid Plexuses

Project description:Laser capture microdissected choroid plexuses were obtained and expression arrays were generated to investigate gene expression in wt and ApoE choroid plexuses; the choroid plexus forms the cerebrospinal fluid, the cerebrospinal fliod barrier, functions as the major gateway for blood-born leukocytes to enter the brain in degenerative and inflammatory brain diseases, and the principal neuroimmune interface in the brain. We found lipid deposits in the aged choroid plexus of hyperlipidemic mice but none in the wt control choroid plexuses. Here, we studied the functional impact and gene epressions in wt and ApoE-deficient choroid plexuses.

Choroid Plexus Gene Expression in ApoE3 or ApoE4-Knockin Mouse Choroid Plexuses

Project description:Laser capture microdissected choroid plexuses were obtained and expression arrays were generated to investigate gene expression in ApoE-Knockin choroid plexuses; the choroid plexus forms the cerebrospinal fluid, the cerebrospinal fliod barrier, functions as the major gateway for blood-born leukocytes to enter the brain in degenerative and inflammatory brain diseases, and the principal neuroimmune interface in the brain. We found lipid deposits in the aged choroid plexus of hyperlipidemic ApoE4-Knockin mice but none in normolipidemic ApoE4-Knockin or normolipidemic or hyperlipidemic ApoE3-Knockin control choroid plexuses. Here, we studied the functional impact and gene epressions these choroid plexuses.

The transcription factor Otx2 regulates choroid plexus development and function

Project description:The choroid plexuses (ChPs) are the main regulators of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) composition and thereby also control the composition of a principal source of signaling molecules that is in direct contact with neural stem cells in the developing brain. The regulators of ChP development mediating the acquisition of a fate that differs from the neighboring neuroepithelial cells are poorly understood. Here, we demonstrate in mice a crucial role for the transcription factor Otx2 in the development and maintenance of ChP cells. Deletion of Otx2 by the Otx2-CreERT2 driver line at E9 resulted in a lack of all ChPs, whereas deletion by the Gdf7-Cre driver line affected predominately the hindbrain ChP, which was reduced in size, primarily owing to an increase in apoptosis upon Otx2 deletion. Strikingly, Otx2 was still required for the maintenance of hindbrain ChP cells at later stages when Otx2 deletion was induced at E15, demonstrating a central role of Otx2 in ChP development and maintenance. Moreover, the predominant defects in the hindbrain ChP mediated by Gdf7-Cre deletion of Otx2 revealed its key role in regulating early CSF composition, which was altered in protein content, including the levels of Wnt4 and the Wnt modulator Tgm2. Accordingly, proliferation and Wnt signaling levels were increased in the distant cerebral cortex, suggesting a role of the hindbrain ChP in regulating CSF composition, including key signaling molecules. Thus, Otx2 acts as a master regulator of ChP development, thereby influencing one of the principal sources of signaling in the developing brain, the CSF. We performed gene expression microarray analysis of fourth ventricular choroid plexus tissue from Otx2 k.o. mice compared to wildtype mice from the same litters.

Comparison of the Global Gene Expression of Choroid Plexus and Meninges and Associated Vasculature under Control Conditions and after Pronounced Hyperthermia or Amphetamine Toxicity

Project description:These tissue were harvested to complement and extend the studies that generated GSE23093. They served 3 purposes; 1) identify genes important to choroid plexus function and compare them with those important for meninges and associated vasculature (MAV) function, 2) determine genes in the choroid plexus and sensitivity hyperthermia and amphetamine toxicity, 3) identify the important gene expression changes related to the immune system in MAV, choroid plexus and trunk' blood Gene mRNA expression patterns in choroid plexus and trunk blood were determined under control conditions as well as after (3 hr and 1day) exposure to either environmentally-induced hyperthermia or neurotoxic doses of amphetamine. This data was analyzed and compared to data from meninges and associated vasculature previously deposited in GEO. The data gathered under control conditions was used to further understand how the choroid plexus and meninges and associated vasculature might function to generate and regulate the cerebrospinal fluid. The expression patterns in the choroid plexus after environmentally-induced hyperthermia or neurotoxic doses of amphetamine was determine its damage and protective responses. The expression patterns after environmentally-induced hyperthermia or neurotoxic doses of amphetamine were compared among choroid plexus, meninges and associated vasculature and blood were analyzed to determine immune system responses.

Adult mouse choroid plexus OTX2 Co-IP

Project description:To analyze OTX2 function in adult choroid plexus, we performed several OTX2 co-immunoprecipitation (co-IP) experiments with mass spectrometry analysis to identify potential protein partners. We previously discovered that OTX2 protein also accumulates non-cell autonomously in subventricular zone (SVZ) and rostral migratory stream (RMS) astrocytes and in visual cortex (VCx) parvalbumin cells. The identification of alternate protein partners in cell-autonomous and non-cell-autonomous contexts would suggest OTX2 takes on specific roles after transferring between cells. In order to test this hypothesis, and to reinforce choroid plexus analysis, we also performed OTX2 co-IP on lysates from adult mouse SVZ, RMS and VCx.

Spatially heterogeneous choroid plexus transcriptomes encode positional identity and contribute to regional cerebrospinal fluid production

Project description:A sheet of choroid plexus epithelial cells extends into each cerebral ventricle and secretes signaling factors into the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). To evaluate whether differences in the CSF proteome across ventricles arise, in part, from regional differences in choroid plexus gene expression, we defined the transcriptome of lateral ventricle (telencephalic) vs. fourth ventricle (hindbrain) choroid plexus. We find that positional identities of mouse, macaque, and human choroid plexi derive from gene expression domains that parallel their axial tissues of origin. We then show that molecular heterogeneity between telencephalic and hindbrain choroid plexi contributes to region-specific, age-dependent protein secretion in vitro. Transcriptome analysis of FACS-purified choroid plexus epithelial cells also predicts their cell type-specific secretome. Spatial domains with distinct protein expression profiles were observed within each choroid plexus. We propose that regional differences between choroid plexi contribute to dynamic signaling gradients across the mammalian cerebroventricular system.

Effects of gut microbiota on gene expression in the choroid plexus

Project description:Accumulating evidence indicates that gut microbiota dysbiosis is associated with increased blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability and contributes to Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathogenesis. In contrast, the influence of gut microbiota on the blood-cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) barrier has not yet been studied. Here, RNA-seq analysis of choroid plexus tissues of normal colonized specific pathogen-free (SPF) versus decolonized antibiotics-treated mice revealed that the barrier function of choroid plexus is affected by the absence of gut microbiota in the AB mice.

Analysis of differential gene expression in the choroid plexus (ChP) of P60 mice at 9am and 9pm

Project description:3 mice per timepoint (9am and 9pm) with FoxJ1-Cre x TRAP-BAC-EGFP:L10a dissected choroid plexus. Transmission and secretion of signals via the choroid plexus (ChP) brain barrier can modulate brain states via regulation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) composition. Here, we developed a platform to analyze diurnal variations in male mouse ChP and CSF. Ribosome profiling of ChP epithelial cells revealed diurnal translatome differences in metabolic machinery, secreted proteins, and barrier components. Using ChP and CSF metabolomics and blood-CSF barrier analyses, we observed diurnal changes in metabolites and cellular junctions. We then focused on transthyretin (TTR), a diurnally regulated thyroid hormone chaperone secreted by the ChP. Diurnal variation in ChP TTR depended on Bmal1 clock gene expression. We achieved real-time tracking of CSF-TTR in awake TtrmNeonGreen mice via multi-day intracerebroventricular fiber photometry. Diurnal changes in ChP and CSF TTR levels correlated with CSF thyroid hormone levels. These datasets highlight an integrated platform for investigating diurnal control of brain states by the ChP and CSF.
