Single cell gene expression profiles for iPSC-derived cortical organoids

ABSTRACT: Alterations in cortical neurogenesis are implicated in neurodevelopmental disorders including autism spectrum disorders (ASDs). Many ASD risk genes have been identified as critical for brain development, but the contribution of genetic backgrounds, although inferred in complex genetic disorders such as ASD, remains unclear. Here, using isogenic induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived neural progenitor cells (NPCs) and cortical organoid models, we report that a heterozygous PTEN p.I135L mutation found in an ASD patient with macrocephaly dysregulates cortical neurogenesis in an ASD genetic background-dependent fashion. We found that this PTEN p.I135L mutation led to overproduction of NPC subtypes as well as neuronal subtypes including both deep and upper layer neurons in its ASD background, but not when introduced into a control genetic background. ASD and control background differences in neurogenesis, neural development and synapse signaling were also observed. These findings provide experimental evidence that both a PTEN p.I135L mutation and ASD genetic background contribute to cellular features consistent with ASD associated with macrocephaly.

Genome-wide maps of chromatin state in E12.5 forebrain tissues

Project description:The histone methyltransferase complex PRC2 is a crucial chromatin modifier and controls key steps in developmental transitions and cell fate choices. Mutations in PRC2 core subunits are found in Weaver syndrome with craniofacial defects, intellectual disabilities, and often macrocephaly, but its pathogenicity and molecular mechanism are unknown. Here, we examined the role of PRC2/Eed in neural stem/progenitor cells (NSPCs) during cortical neurogenesis We found that Eed is highly expressed in embryonic cerebral cortex and specific deletion of Eed in forebrain reduced the number of upper layer neurons but not deeper layer neurons and ultimately contributed to abnormal cortical development. In addition, our results revealed that PRC2/Eed regulated Hedgehog signaling pathway through activation of Gli3 not dependent on H3K27me3 but H3K27ac. What?s more, Increased Gli3 in NSPCs could reduce Gli1 expression and contribute to the defects of cortical neurogenesis caused by Eed deletion. Finally, Hedgehog signaling activation with small molecule SAG or genetic inactivation of Ptch1 could partially rescue the cortical neurogenesis defects in vivo after Eed depletion. In general, we identified a novel PRC2/Eed-Gli3-Gli1 regulatory axis that is critical for normal cortical neurogenesis. Our findings define a critical function for PRC2/Eed in cortical development and shed light on the genetic basis of intellectual disabilities of neural developmental disorders caused by PRC2/Eed mutation.

Comparing synaptic proteomes across five mouse models for autism reveals converging molecular similarities including deficits in oxidative phosphorylation and Rho GTPase signaling

Project description:Specific and effective treatments for autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are lacking due to a poor understanding of disease mechanisms. Here, we test the idea that similarities between diverse ASD mouse models are caused by deficits in shared molecular pathways at neuronal synapses. To do this, we leverage the availability of multiple genetic models of ASD that exhibit shared synaptic and behavioral deficits and use quantitative mass spectrometry with isobaric tandem mass tagging (TMT) to compare their hippocampal synaptic proteomes. Comparative analyses of mouse models for Fragile X syndrome (Fmr1 knockout), cortical dysplasia focal epilepsy syndrome (Cntnap2 knockout), PTEN hamartoma tumor syndrome (Pten haploinsufficiency), ANKS1B syndrome (Anks1b haploinsufficiency), and idiopathic autism (BTBR+) revealed several common altered cellular and molecular pathways atthe synapse, including changes in oxidative phosphorylation, endocytosis, and Rho family small GTPase signaling. Functional validation of one of these aberrant pathways, Rac1 signaling, confirms that ANSK1B models display altered Rac1 activity counter to that observed in other models, as predicted by the bioinformatic analyses. Overall similarity analyses reveal clusters of synaptic profiles, which may form the basis for molecular subtypes that explain genetic heterogeneity in ASD despite a common clinical diagnosis. Our results suggest that ASD-linked susceptibility genes ultimately converge on common signaling pathways regulating synaptic function and propose that these points of convergence are key to understanding the human disease.

(Phospho)Proteomic Characterization of Ptenm3m4 Cortex

Project description:PTEN has a strong Mendelian association with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), representing a special case in autism’s complex genetic architecture. Animal modeling for constitutional Pten mutation creates an opportunity to study how disruption of Pten affects neurobiology and glean potential insight into ASD pathogenesis. Subsequently, we comprehensively characterized the neural (phospho)proteome of Ptenm3m4/m3m4 mice, which exhibits cytoplasmic-predominant Pten expression, by applying mass spectrometry technology to their brains at two-weeks- (P14) and six-weeks-of-age (P40). The differentially expressed/phosphorylated proteins were subjected to gene enrichment, pathway, and network analyses to assess the affected biology. We identified numerous differentially expressed/phosphorylated proteins, finding greater dysregulation at P40 consistent with prior transcriptomic data. The affected pathways were largely related to PTEN function or neurological processes, while scant direct overlap was found across datasets. Network analysis pointed to ASD risk genes like Pten and Psd-95 as major regulatory hubs, suggesting they likely contribute to initiation or maintenance of cellular and perhaps organismal phenotypes related to ASD.

CHD8 haploinsufficiency alters the developmental trajectories of human excitatory and inhibitory neurons linking autism phenotypes with transient cellular defects

Project description:Chromodomain helicase DNA-binding 8 (CHD8) is one of the most frequently mutated genes causative of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). While its phenotypic spectrum often encompasses macrocephaly and hence implicates cortical abnormalities in this form of ASD, the neurodevelopmental impact of human CHD8 haploinsufficiency remains unexplored. Here we combined human cerebral organoids and single cell transcriptomics to define the effect of ASD-linked CHD8 mutations on human cortical development. We found that CHD8 haploinsufficiency causes a major disruption of neurodevelopmental trajectories with an accelerated generation of inhibitory neurons and a delayed production of excitatory neurons alongside the ensuing protraction of the proliferation phase. This imbalance may contribute to the significant enlargement of cerebral organoids in line with the macrocephaly observed in patients with CHD8 mutations. By adopting an isogenic design of patient-specific mutations and mosaic cerebral organoids, we define genotype-phenotype relationships and uncover their cell-autonomous nature. Finally, our results assign different CHD8-dependent molecular defects to particular cell types, pointing to an abnormal and extended program of proliferation and alternative splicing specifically affected in, respectively, the radial glial and immature neuronal compartments. By identifying temporally restricted cell-type specific effects of human CHD8 mutations, our study uncovers developmental alterations as reproducible endophenotypes for neurodevelopmental disease modelling.

Proteomic Analysis of Proteins Downstream of Autism-Associated Gene DIXDC1

Project description:Dix domain containing 1 (Dixdc1) is an important regulator of neuronal development including cortical neurogenesis, neuronal migration and synaptic connectivity, and sequence variants in the gene have been linked to autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Previous studies indicate that Dixdc1 controls neurogenesis through Wnt signaling, while its regulation of dendrite and synapse development requires Wnt and cytoskeletal signaling. However, the prediction of these signaling pathways is primarily based on the structure of Dixdc1. Given the role of Dixdc1 in neural development and brain disorders, we hypothesized that Dixdc1 may regulate additional signaling pathways in the brain. We performed proteomic analyses of Dixdc1 KO mouse cortices to reveal such alterations.

TBR1 Regulates Autism Risk Genes in the Developing Neocortex

Project description:Exome sequencing studies have identified multiple genes harboring de novo loss-of-function (LoF) variants in individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASD), including TBR1, a master regulator of cortical development. We performed ChIP-seq for TBR1 during mouse cortical neurogenesis and show that TBR1-bound regions are enriched adjacent to ASD genes. ASD genes were also enriched among genes that are differentially expressed in Tbr1 knockouts, which together with the ChIP-seq data, suggests direct transcriptional regulation. Of the 9 ASD genes examined, 7 were misexpressed in the cortices of Tbr1 knockout mice, including 6 with increased expression in the deep cortical layers. ASD genes with adjacent cortical TBR1 ChIP-seq peaks also showed unusually low levels of LoF mutations in a reference human population and among Icelanders. We then leveraged TBR1 binding to identify an appealing subset of candidate ASD genes. Our findings highlight a TBR1-regulated network of ASD genes in the developing neocortex that are relatively intolerant to LoF mutations, indicating that these genes may play critical roles in normal cortical development.
