A CRISPR-engineered Isogenic Model Reveals Altered Neuronal Phenotypes of the 22q11.2 A-B Syndromic Deletion

ABSTRACT: The 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11.2DS) is the most common copy number variant (CNV)-associated syndrome, leading to congenital, cognitive, and neuropsychiatric anomalies in patients. The clinical presentation of the disease phenotypes is variable, posing significant challenges for prognosis of inheritance risk and clinical outcomes for the CNV carriers. ~85% of patients and almost all available human-centered models of this condition reflect the ~2.7 Mb “A-D” deletion at this locus. Leveraging a CRISPR/Cas9-based engineering strategy and induced pluripotent stems cells, we generated novel isogenic models for the smaller, commonly inherited 1.5 Mb “A-B” deletion found in ~5-10% of 22q11.2DS patients. The bulk RNA-seq data included here reflects paired-end 100 bp sequencing of iPSC-derived neuronal progenitor cells and excitatory neurons. These data reflect three independent clones either carrying the designed 22q11.2 deletion or control comparators (2 clones nucleofected with same sgRNA but with no deletion generated; 1 clone derived from the parental Cas9-expressing iPSC line). We anticipate that these novel, isogenic models will carry significant utility for the study of 22q11.2 deletion syndrome.

A CRISPR-engineered Isogenic Model Reveals Altered Neuronal Phenotypes of the 22q11.2 A-B Syndromic Deletion

Project description:The 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11.2DS) is the most common copy number variant (CNV)-associated syndrome, leading to congenital and neuropsychiatric anomalies. Patient-derived, induced pluripotent stem cell (iPS) models have provided important insight into the mechanisms of phenotypic features of this condition. However, patient-derived iPSC models may harbor underlying genetic heterogeneity that can confound analysis of pathogenic CNV effects. Furthermore, the ~1.5 Mb “A-B” deletion at this locus is inherited at higher frequency than the more common ~2.7 Mb “A-D” deletion, but remains under-studied due to lack of relevant models. To address these issues, here we leveraged a CRISPR-based strategy in Cas9-expressing iPS cells to engineer novel isogenic models of the 22q11.2 “A-B” deletion. After in vitro differentiation to excitatory neurons, integrated transcriptomic and cell surface proteomics identified deletion-associated alterations in surface adhesion markers. Furthermore, implantation of iPS-derived neuronal progenitor cells into the cortex of neonatal mice found decreased proliferation and accelerated neuronal maturation within a relevant microenvironment. Taken together, our results suggest potential pathogenic mechanisms of the 22q11.2 “A-B” deletion in driving neuronal and neurodevelopmental phenotypes. We further propose that the isogenic models generated here will provide a unique resource to study this less-common variant of the 22q11.2 microdeletion syndrome.

Neuronal Defects in a Human Cellular Model of 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome

Project description:22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11DS) is a common cause of developmental neuropsychiatric disorders, including psychosis, autism and epilepsy. This highly penetrant genetic syndrome provides a unique opportunity to mitigate the challenges raised by the heterogeneity of complex mental disorders and to identify specific neuronal phenotypes. Here, we generated induced pluripotent stem cells from subjects carrying a 3 Mb deletion at the 22q11.2 locus and from controls and differentiated these cells in vitro into three-dimensional organoid resembling the developing cerebral cortex. We performed single-cell RNA-sequencing to establish the reliability and reproducibility of cortical organoid differentiation in 22q11DS.

Long non-coding RNA lnc-TSSK2-8 activates canonical Wnt/β-catenin signaling through small shock proteins HSPA6 and CRYAB

Project description:Congenital heart defect (CHD) is the most common birth defect worldwide. Copy number variations (CNVs) have been revealed as an important source of pathogenic factor of CHD. 22q11.2 deletion syndrome is the most common microdeletion disorder which has been frequently associated with conotruncal malformations. By now, the dosage sensitive geneTBX1 has been adopted as the major pathogenic gene responsible for 22q11.2 deletion-related heart defects. Here we report the lncRNA lnc-TSSK2-8, which is encompassed in the 22q11.2 region, could activate the canonical Wnt/ -catenin signaling by protecting -catenin from ubiquitination and degradation. Such effects were mediated by two short heat shock proteins HSPA6 and CRYAB, whose expression were regulated by lnc-TSSK2-8 through the ceRNA mechanism. In clinical practice, pathogenesis of CNV were always attributed to haploinsufficiency of protein coding genes. Here we report the 22q11.2 lncRNA lnc-TSSK2-8 significantly activate canonical Wnt/ -catenin signaling, which has major roles in cardiac out flow tract development and should act upstream of TBX1. Our results suggested that lncRNAs should contribute to the etiology of CNV related CHD.

Transcription profiling of Tbx1 function in adult myocardial infarction hearts [bulk RNA-seq]

Project description:Post-myocardial infarction (Post-MI) heart failure is an unanswered clinical challenge. Current immunological intervention trials to reduce MI damage are unsatisfactory. Tbx1, the major 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11.2DS) disease gene, reactivated in cardiac lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) to promote post-MI repair. Endothelial deletion of Tbx1 deteriorated post-MI cardiac function. To identify the initial endothelial-derived gene expression changes that are responsible for lymphangiogenesis and cell non-autonomous functions towards immune cells after MI, we enriched CD31+ endothelial cells from 5 dpMI Ctrl and Tbx1cko hearts and performed RNA-seq. In conclusion, our findings revealed that Tbx1 can promote lymphangiogenesis and alleviate excessive cardiac inflammation in post MI hearts.

Reduced dosage of Î²-catenin genetically rescues intracardiac anomalies in a Tbx1 conditional null mouse model of 22q11.2 deletion syndrome

Project description:Approximately 60-70% of patients with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11.2DS; velo-cardio-facial syndrome/DiGeorge syndrome) have cardiac outflow tract anomalies including persistent truncus arteriosus (PTA) as the most severe defect. Among the genes in the 22q11.2 region, TBX1, encoding a T-box transcription factor is a major candidate for cardiovascular malformations and its inactivation in mice results in a PTA. To identify novel signaling mechanisms that function downstream, we found that Tbx1 restricts canonical Wnt signaling in the pharyngeal apparatus. To test for tissue specificity within the pharyngeal apparatus, we inactivated Tbx1 in the anterior portion of the secondary heart field (AHF) mesoderm using the Mef2c-AHF-Cre allele and observed a full penetrant PTA (n = 30). Tbx1 promotes progenitor cells but restricts differentiation whereas Wnt signaling, in the AHF, promotes cardiomyocyte differentiation. To determine whether Tbx1 and canonical Wnt signaling act in opposing pathways, both alleles of Tbx1 and one Î²-catenin allele were inactivated in the AHF and 85% of them (n = 35) showed partial or complete rescue. The antagonistic function of the two pathways was further confirmed by gene expression profiling, indicating that these two pathways provide a key balance in the AHF to prevent premature differentiation of progenitor cells prior to reaching the cardiac outflow tract. We inactivatedTbx1 and beta-catenin allele to identify function of Tbx1 and beta-catenin in the anterior portion of the secondary heart field (AHF) mesoderm. We also inactivated both alleles of Tbx1 and one Î²-catenin alleles (rescue design) to determine whether Tbx1 and canonical Wnt signaling act in opposing pathways

RNA-seq in neurons derived from iPSCs in controls and patients with schizophrenia and 22q11 del

Project description:Individuals with 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome (22q11.2 DS) are a specific high-risk group for developing schizophrenia (SZ), schizoaffective disorder (SAD) and autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Several genes in the deleted region have been implicated in the development of SZ, e.g., PRODH and DGCR8. However, the mechanistic connection between these genes and the neuropsychiatric phenotype remains unclear. To elucidate the molecular consequences of 22q11.2 deletion in early neural development, we carried out RNA-seq analysis to investigate gene expression in differentiating human neurons derived from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) of 22q11.2 DS SZ and SAD patients. Eight cases (ten iPSC-neuron samples in total including duplicate clones) and seven controls (nine in total including duplicate clones) were subject to RNA sequencing. Using a systems level analysis, differentially expressed genes/gene-modules and pathway of interests were identified. We observed ~2-fold reduction in expression of almost all genes in the 22q11.2 region in SZ (37 genes reached p-value < 0.05, 36 of which reached a false discovery rate < 0.05). Outside of the deleted region, 745 genes showed significant differences in expression between SZ and control neurons (p<0.05). Function enrichment and network analysis of the differentially expressed genes uncovered converging evidence on abnormal expression in key functional pathways, such as apoptosis, cell cycle and survival, and MAPK signaling in the SZ and SAD samples.

Gene profiling on mandibular arches (MdPA1) from Tbx1+/+ and Tbx1-/- mouse embryos

Project description:Velo-cardio-facial syndrome/DiGeorge syndrome/22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11DS) patients have a submucous cleft palate, velo-pharyngeal insufficiency associated with hypernasal speech, facial muscle hypotonia and feeding difficulties. Inactivation of both alleles of mouse Tbx1, encoding a T-box transcription factor, deleted on 22q11.2, results in a cleft palate and a reduction or loss of branchiomeric muscles. To identify genes downstream of Tbx1 for myogenesis, gene profiling was performed on mandibular arches (MdPA1) from Tbx1+/+ and Tbx1-/- mouse embryos.
