Foxj1 controls olfactory ciliogenesis and differentiation program of the olfactory sensory neurons

ABSTRACT: Olfaction plays important roles in food and mate choice, and also in the avoidance of predators, making it a vital sensory modality for preservation and reproduction. In the vertebrates, olfactory receptors are thought to localise on multiple cilia elaborated on the dendritic knobs of olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs). Although olfactory cilia dysfunction can cause loss of the sense of smell, how their differentiation is programmed at the transcriptional level has remained largely unexplored. We discovered in zebrafish and mice that Foxj1, a fork head-domain containing transcription factor traditionally linked with motile cilia biogenesis, is expressed in OSNs and required for olfactory epithelium formation. In keeping with the immotile nature of the olfactory cilia, we observed that ciliary motility genes that are the targets of Foxj1 in motile ciliated cells, are repressed in the OSNs. Strikingly, we also found that besides ciliogenesis, Foxj1 controls the differentiation of the OSNs by regulating their cell type-specific gene expression, such as that of olfactory marker protein (omp) involved in odour-evoked signal transduction. In line with these requirements, response to bile acid, an odour detected by OMP-positive OSNs, was significantly diminished in the foxj1 mutant zebrafish. Taken together, our findings establish how the canonical Foxj1-mediated motile ciliogenic transcriptional program has been repurposed for the biogenesis of the immotile olfactory cilia and for the development of the OSNs themselves.

Transcription profiling of mouse olfactory sensory neurons

Project description:The overall aim of the experiment is to understand the phenotype of mature mouse olfactory sensory neurons by analyzing the transcripts expressed and enriched in them as compared to the rest of the cell types in the olfactory epithelium (consisting of immature neurons, supporting cells, progenitor cells and cells in lamina propria) and brain ( with out the olfactory bulbs). Comparision with the other cell types in the olfactory epithelium should eliminate the transcripts commonly expressed in the olfactory epithelium and comparision with brain will eliminate the transcripts common to most neurons. Our gene chip data indicates that mature mouse olfactory sensory neurons express 10,000 genes. Mature OSNs specifically contained three clusters of over represented Gene ontology categories: smell, ion transport and cilia. Analysis for the functionally over represented categories among the transcripts with a positive signal in the mature OSNs yielded largely broad categories common to all cells with the exception of chromatin modelling and RNA processing categories. Biological process categories of movement, development and immune response came as under represented categories. Experiment Overall Design: To purify mature olfactory neurons we took advantage of the OMP-GFP mice. OMP(olfactory marker protein) is expressed specifically in mature olfactory and vomeronasal sensory neurons. In the OMP-GFP mice the coding region of OMP is replaced by GFP. We purified OSNs from the rest of the epithelium from these mice by using FACS. . We used the Affymetrix gene chips mouse expression set 430 (consisting of 430A and 430B chips). Our gene chip data is extensively validated by insitu hybridizations.

Transcription profiling of mouse olfactory epithelium from heterozygous and homozygouse OMP-GFP animals

Project description:OMP is expressed only in mature olfactory sensory neurons, arguing that its function is specially suited to the needs of OSNs. However none of the properties of OMP suggest any direct role in regulating gene expression in OSNs. Our data confirms that gene expression in the olfactory epithelium of mice lacking OMP is indistinguishable from mice expressing OMP. We used affymerix M430v2.0 gene chips to cover as much of genome as possible and observed no statistically significant differences in mRNA abundance between the two genotypes.These results imply that OMPs ability to regulate signal transduction with in OSNs has little effect on gene expression and that its ability to promote mitosis in neighbouring cells (under culture conditions) is insufficiently active under normal laboratory housing conditions to generate detectable differences in gene expression patterns. Experiment Overall Design: The overall design of the experiment is to undertand the effect of OMP (olfactory marker protein) on gene expression in the olfactory epithelium. We isolated the olfactory epithelium from homozygous and heterozygous OMP-GFP mice, extracted the RNA and hybridized on to the mouse expression set 430 2.0 Chip.

Single-cell RNA-sequencing of OMP-GFP mouse olfactory sensory neurons

Project description:We sequenced the transcriptome of 34 single olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) manually picked from OMP-GFP mice, ensuring the cells expressed high levels of GFP, a marker of mature OSNs. We pooled the olfactory mucosa from 2 male and 2 female animals, to obtain single-cell suspensions for cell picking. We only picked healthy-looking cells. From each, we constructed libraries for single-cell RNA-sequencing, to characterise the diversity of OR genes expressed.

Transcription profiling of Xenopus epithelial explants injected with the intracellular domain of Notch (ICD) to block the formation of multi-ciliate cells, either alone or along with FoxJ1

Project description:Analysis of epithelial explants injected with the intracellular domain of Notch (ICD) to block the formation of multi-ciliate cells, either alone or along with FoxJ1. FoxJ1 misexpression leads to the induction fo ectopic cilia in Xenopus laevis epithelia. Results show which genes are affected by FoxJ1 during the induction of ectopic cilia. Ciliated cells that produce a leftward fluid flow have been proposed to mediate left-right patterning in many vertebrate embryos. These cilia combine features of primary sensory and motile cilia, but how such cilia are specified is unknown. We address this issue by analyzing the Xenopus and Zebrafish homologs of FoxJ1, a forkhead transcription factor necessary for ciliogenesis in multi-ciliate cells of the mouse. We show that the cilia that underlie left-right patterning on the Xenopus gastrocoel roof plate (GRP) and Zebrafish Kupfferâs vesicle (KV) are severely shortened or fail to form in FoxJ1 morphants. We also show that misexpressing XFoxJ1 is sufficient to induce ectopic GRP-like cilia formation in frog embryos. Microarray analysis indicates that XFoxJ1 induces the formation of cilia by upregulating the expression of motile cilia genes. These results indicate that FoxJ1 is a critical determinant in specifying cilia used in left-right patterning. Experiment Overall Design: 2-cell stage Xenopus embryos were injected with synthetic mRNA encoding ICD alone or along with FoxJ1. At stage 9/10 the presumptive ectoderm was cut off the embryo and cultured on a fibronectin coated coverslip. At stage 22 RNA was harvested from explants and used as the starting material for arrays.

Single-cell RNA sequencing of mouse olfactory sensory neurons

Project description:The goal of this study was to identify those odorant receptors conferring a response to indole or related odorants (2-methylindole, 3-methylindole, 6-methylindole, 2-methoxynaphthalene, and Lilyflore®) in olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs). Odorants were sequentially delivered to dissociated OSNs, and six OSNs with three different response profiles were isolated for transcriptome analysis. OSN1 and OSN2 responded to indole, 2-methylindole, 3-methylindole, and 6-methylindole; OSN3 and OSN4 responded to Indole and 2-methoxynaphthalene; OSN5 and OSN6 responded to indole, 3-methylindole, 6-methylindole, and 2-methoxynaphthalene. RNA transcripts encoding Olfr740 (OSN1, OSN2), Olfr741 (OSN3, OSN4), and Olfr743 (OSN5, OSN6) were retrieved, with high level expression of a single OR transcript in each OSN. The expression of mature OSN markers OMP, Golf, Adcy3, Cnga2 and Rtp1 was also confirmed.
