Characterization of the transcriptomic profile of Plagl1+/-pat retina

ABSTRACT: Retinal damage triggers reactive gliosis in Müller glia across vertebrate species, but only in regenerative animals, such as teleost fish, do Müller glia initiate repair; proliferating and undergoing neurogenesis to replace lost cells. We found that Plagl1, a maternally imprinted gene, is dynamically regulated in reactive Müller glia post-insult, with transcript levels transiently increasing before stably declining. To study Plagl1 retinal function, we examined Plagl1+/-pat null mutants postnatally, revealing defects in retinal architecture, visual signal processing and a reactive gliotic phenotype. Plagl1+/-pat Müller glia proliferate ectopically and give rise to inner retinal neurons and photoreceptors. Transcriptomic and ATAC-seq profiles revealed similarities between Plagl1+/-pat retinas and neurodegenerative and injury models, including an upregulation of pro-gliogenic and pro-proliferative pathways, such as Notch, not observed in wild-type retinas Plagl1 is thus an essential component of the transcriptional regulatory networks that retain mammalian Müller glia in quiescence.

Expression profiling of Ascl1-reprogrammed P12 Müller glia compared with freshly dissociated progenitors and Müller glia

Project description:Non-mammalian vertebrates have a robust ability to regenerate injured retinal neurons from Müller glia cells (MG) that activate the proneural factor Achaete-scute homolog 1 (Ascl1/Mash1) and de-differentiate into progenitors cells. In contrast, mammalian MG have a limited regenerative response and fail to upregulate Ascl1 after injury. To test whether Ascl1 could restore a neurogenic potential to mammalian MG, we over-expressed Ascl1 in dissociated mouse MG cultures and intact retinal explants. Ascl1-infected MG upregulate retinal progenitor-specific genes, while downregulating glial genes. Furthermore, Ascl1 remodeled the chromatin at its targets from a repressive to active configuration. MG-derived progenitors differentiated into cells that exhibited neuronal morphologies, expressed retinal subtype-specific neuronal markers, and displayed neuron-like physiological responses. These results indicate that a single transcription factor, Ascl1, can produce a neurogenic state in mature Muller glia. Expresssion profiling was used to determine the genes that were changed after Ascl1 infection of P12 cultured Müller glia compared with those present in P0 progenitors and P7-P21 Müller glia Retinas were dissociated and FAC-sorted from Hes5-GFP mice at P0, P7, P10, P14 or P21 and submitted for profiling. WT Retinas were dissociated at P12, grown for 1 week in culture, and infected with lentiviruses expressing Ascl1 or GFP for four days. Total RNA was extracted and submitted for profiling.

Gene expression profiling of developing murine Müller glia

Project description:To study molecular changes during differentiation of retinal progenitor cells (RPCs) into Müller glia, we isolated Notch1+ cells (Notch1 is a marker of RPCs) from postnatal-day (P) 0, 3, 7, and 14 retinas,as well as Glast + cells (Glast/Slc1a3 is a marker of Müller glia precursors and Müller glia in the retina) from P7, P14, P21, and P28 retinas. We studied gene expression in these cells using MEEBO microarrays.

Retinal degeneration triggers the activation of YAP/TEAD in reactive Müller cells

Project description:PURPOSE. During retinal degeneration, Müller glia cells respond to photoreceptor loss by undergoing reactive gliosis, with both detrimental and beneficial effects. Increasing our knowledge of the complex molecular response of Müller cells to retinal degeneration is thus essential for the development of new therapeutic strategies. The purpose of this work was to identify new factors involved in Müller cell response to photoreceptor cell death. METHODS. Whole transcriptome sequencing was performed from wild-type and degenerating rd10 mouse retinas at P30. The changes in mRNA abundance for several deregulated genes were assessed by RT-qPCR. Protein expression level and retinal cellular localization were determined by western-blot and immunohistochemistry, respectively. RESULTS. Pathway-level analysis from whole transcriptomic data revealed the Hippo/YAP pathway as one of the main signaling pathways altered in response to photoreceptor degeneration in rd10 retinas. We found that downstream effectors of this pathway, YAP and TEAD1, are specifically expressed in Müller cells and that their expression, at both the mRNA and protein levels, is increased in rd10 reactive Müller glia after the onset of photoreceptor degeneration. The expression of Ctgf and Cyr61, two target genes of the transcriptional YAP/TEAD complex, is also upregulated following photoreceptor loss. CONCLUSIONS. This work reveals for the first time that YAP and TEAD1, key downstream effectors of the Hippo pathway, are specifically expressed in Müller cells. We also uncovered a deregulation of the expression and activity of Hippo/YAP pathway components in reactive Müller cells under pathological conditions.

Transcriptome and DNA methylome of mouse Müller glia

Project description:Müller cells are the primary glia of the neural retina and play crucial roles in maintaining the structural and functional homeostasis of the retina. Müller cells also possess certain levels of retinal regeneration capacity, especially in lower vertebrates. In this study, we deep sequenced the transcriptomes and methylomes of mouse Müller cells and early retinal progenitor cells (RPCs), as well as Müller cells from injured retinas and aged retinas, which will help to reveal molecular mechanisms governing Müller cells development, physiological functions and regeneration activities.

Common and divergent gene regulatory networks control injury-induced and developmental neurogenesis in zebrafish retina [snRNA-seq]

Project description:Following acute retinal damage, zebrafish possess the ability to regenerate all neuronal subtypes. This regeneration requires Müller glia (MG) to reprogram and divide asymmetrically to produce a multipotent Müller glia-derived neuronal progenitor cell (MGPC). This raises three key questions. First, does loss of different retinal cell subtypes induce unique MG regeneration responses? Second, do MG reprogram to a developmental retinal progenitor cell state? And finally, to what extent does regeneration recapitulate retinal development? We examined these questions by performing single-nuclear and single-cell RNA-Seq and ATAC-Seq in both developing and regenerating retinas. While MG reprogram to a state similar to late-stage retinal progenitors in developing retinas, there are transcriptional differences between reprogrammed MG/MGPCs and late progenitors, as well as reprogrammed MG in outer and inner retinal damage models. Validation of candidate genes confirmed that loss of different subtypes induces differences in transcription factor gene expression and regeneration outcomes. This work identifies major differences between gene regulatory networks activated following the selective loss of different subtypes of retina neurons, as well as between retinal regeneration and development.

Single cell RNA sequencing unravels the transcriptional network underlying zebrafish retina regeneration

Project description:In the lesioned zebrafish retina, Müller glia produce multipotent retinal progenitors that generate all retinal neurons, replacing lost cell types. To study the molecular mechanisms linking Müller glia reactivity to progenitor production and neuronal differentiation, we used single cell RNA sequencing of Müller glia, progenitors and regenerated progeny from uninjured and light-lesioned retinae. We discover an injury-induced Müller glia differentiation trajectory that leads into a cell population with a hybrid identity expressing marker genes of Müller glia and progenitors. A glial self-renewal and a neurogenic trajectory depart from the hybrid cell population. We further observe that neurogenic progenitors progressively differentiate to generate retinal ganglion cells first and bipolar cells last, similar to the events observed during retinal development. Our work provides a comprehensive description of Müller glia and progenitor transcriptional changes and fate decisions in the regenerating retina, which are key to tailor cell differentiation and replacement therapies for retinal dystrophies in humans.

Dynamic miRNA Expression Patterns During Retina Regeneration in Zebrafish: Loss of Dicer Inhibits Regeneration

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
