Analysis of gene expression in Sox10 Dom mutant sacral neural crest cells

ABSTRACT: Hirschsprung’s disease (HSCR) is a congenital disease which is characterized by the reduction or absence of neurons and glial cells in the enteric nervous system (ENS). Failure of neural crest cells (NCCs) to colonize the gut during the embryonic development has been considered as one of the possible causes of the disease. In this study, the migration and gene expression of sacral NCCs from the spontaneous mouse mutant Dominant megacolon (Dom) which is a HSCR animal model expressing a mutated transcription factor Sox10, were analyzed in order to identify candidate genes which may possibly affect the NCC migration in the mutant.

hPSC-derived Sacral Neural Crest Enables Rescue in a Severe Model of Hirschsprung’s Disease [ATAC-seq]

Project description:The enteric nervous system (ENS) is derived from both the vagal and sacral component of the neural crest (NC). Here, we present the derivation of sacral ENS precursors from human PSCs via timed exposure to FGF, WNT and to GDF11 to enable posterior patterning and transition from posterior trunk to sacral NC identity respectively. Using a SOX2::H2B-tdTomato/ T::H2B-GFP dual reporter hPSC line, we demonstrate that both trunk and sacral NC emerge from a double-positive neuro-mesodermal progenitor (NMP). Vagal and sacral NC precursors yield distinct neuronal subtypes and migratory behaviors in vitro and in vivo. Remarkably, xenografting of both vagal and sacral NC lineages is required to rescue a mouse model of total aganglionosis, suggesting novel opportunities in the treatment of severe forms of Hirschsprung’s disease.

Transcriptomic Profiling of Vagal and Sacral Level Neural Crest Cell from Mouse Embryos Using Next Generation Sequencing

Project description:The ENS of vertebrates develops from neural crest cell (NCC) deriving from mainly the vagal neural crest, while NCCs from the sacral level to a less extent. In mouse embryos, the vagal NCCs emigrate from the neural tube adjacent to the somite level from 1-7 at Embryonic day (E)9.0, and sacral NCCs emigrate from the neural tube adjacent to the level of somites caudal to somite 24 in the mouse (in the chick, caudal to somite 28) at E9.5. The spatial difference in cell colonization between vagal and sacral NCCs is that vagal NCCs completely colonize the whole gut, while the distribution of sacral NCCs is only restricted to the hindgut segment. To determine the differences between these two groups of cells, we isolated vagal and sacral NCCs by neural tube explant culture and then performed high-throughput RNA-seq to examine the transcriptional variation. We analyzed that differentially expressed genes (DEGs) by gene ontology (GO) analysis in which the DEGs were enriched in cell adherin, proliferation, transcriptional regulation, et al. This study might help to explore the underlying basis for the different cell behaviors between vagal and sacral NCCs during mouse embryonic development.

A complementary study pipeline unravels novel players in the pathoetiology of Hirschsprung's disease

Project description:Purpose: Hirschsprung’s disease (HSCR, OMIM 142623) represents one of the main causes of neonatal intestinal obstruction. It is caused by dysfunction of neural crest cells (NCCs) and their progeny during development of the enteric nervous system (ENS). HSCR is considered a multifactorial disorder, however, associated risk genes only account for a minority of cases. Consequently, defining disease-relevant variants is still a demanding task. Methods: To reduce the number of candidate genes identified by Whole Exome Sequencing (WES) and to examine their disease-causing relevance, we established a complementary study pipeline including transcriptome data of murine embryonic ENS-relevant tissues, literature and database searches, in silico network analyses as well as functional assays using genome-edited candidate-specific cell clones. Results: Applying this strategy on a pilot set of two HSCR patients and their non-affected parents led to the identification of four novel HSCR candidate genes: ATP7A, SREBF1, ABCD1 and PIAS2. This candidate gene selection was corroborated by the discovery of further rare variants in additional HSCR cases. Moreover, expression analyses revealed that all four genes are expressed in embryonic murine gastrointestinal tissues. Functional analyses using candidate gene-specific, neuronal-like CRISPR/Cas9-edited knockout cell clones demonstrated impaired differentiation, proliferation and/or cell survival capacity. Conclusions: Taken together, the presented study pipeline was proven to be suitable for the selection and validation of candidate genes as well as to gain insight into underlying pathomechanisms of HSCR.

Single-cell profiling coupled with lineage analysis reveals vagal and sacral neural crest contributions to the developing enteric nervous system

Project description:During development, much of the enteric nervous system (ENS) arises from the vagal neural crest that emerges from the caudal hindbrain and colonizes the entire gastrointestinal tract. However, a second contribution to the ENS comes from the sacral neural crest that arises in the caudal neural tube and populates the post-umbilical gut. By coupling single cell transcriptomics with axial-level specific lineage tracing in avian embryos, we compared the contributions of embryonic vagal and sacral neural crest cells to the pre-umbilical and post-umbilical chick ENS and the associated peripheral ganglia (the Nerve of Remak and pelvic plexuses) at embryonic day (E) 10.

RNA Seq analysis of E9.5 embryonic vagal regions in Rdh10 mutants of mouse

Project description:The enteric nervous system (ENS) is formed from vagal neural crest cells (NCC), which generate the neurons and glia that regulate gastrointestinal function. Defects in the migration, colonization or differentiation of NCC in the gut can result in gastrointestinal disorders such as Hirschsprung disease (HSCR). Although mutations in many genes have been associated with the etiology of HSCR, a significant proportion of affected individuals have an unknown genetic diagnosis. Therefore, it’s important to identify new genes, modifiers and environmental factors that regulate ENS development and HSCR. We discovered that retinol dehydrogenase 10 (Rdh10) loss-of-function mouse embryos exhibit total intestinal aganglionosis, the most severe form of HSCR. Rdh10 catalyzes the first oxidative step in the metabolism of vitamin A to its active metabolite, RA, and is therefore a central regulator of vitamin A metabolism and retinoic acid (RA) synthesis during embryogenesis. Rdh10 is highly expressed in the mesenchyme surrounding the entrance to the foregut and we demonstrate that paracrine retinoid signaling is essential between E7.5-E9.5 for NCC entry into the gut. Vagal NCC form and migrate in Rdh10 mutant embryos but fail to enter the foregut. Comparative RNA-sequencing revealed Ret-Gdnf-Gfra1-signaling which is critical for vagal NCC chemotaxis is downregulated in Rdh10 mutants and furthermore that the composition of the extracellular matrix through which NCC migrate is altered, particularly by increased collagen deposition. Collectively this restricts NCC entry into the gut, demonstrating that Rdh10-mediated vitamin A metabolism and RA signaling pleiotropically regulates the NCC microenvironment during ENS formation and in the pathogenesis of HSCR.

Sequencing Reveals miRNAs Enriched in the Developing Mouse Enteric Nervous System [miRNA]

Project description:The enteric nervous system (ENS) is an essential network of neurons and glia in the bowel wall. Defects in ENS development can result in Hirschsprung disease (HSCR), a life-threatening condition characterized by severe constipation, abdominal distention, bilious vomiting, and failure to thrive. A growing body of literature connects HSCR to alterations in miRNA expression, but there are limited data on the normal miRNA landscape in the developing ENS. We sequenced small RNAs (smRNA-seq) and messenger RNAs (mRNA-seq) in ENS precursors of mid-gestation Ednrb-EGFP mice and compared them to aggregated RNA from all other cells in the developing bowel. Our smRNA-seq results identified 73 miRNAs that were significantly enriched and highly expressed in the developing ENS, with miR-9, miR-27b, miR-124, miR-137, and miR-488 as our top 5 miRNAs that are conserved in humans. However, contrary to prior reports, our follow-up analyses of miR-137 showed that loss of Mir137 in Nestin-cre, Wnt1-cre, Sox10-cre, or Baf53b-cre lineage cells had no effect on mouse survival or ENS development. Our data provide important context for future studies of miRNA in HSCR and other ENS diseases and highlight open questions about facility-specific factors in development.
