Connectome-seq: High-throughput Mapping of Neuronal Connectivity at Single-Synapse Resolution via Barcode Sequencing [snRNA-seq, ssRNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: Understanding neuronal connectivity at single-cell resolution remains a fundamental challenge in neuroscience, with current methods constrained by an inherent trade-off between throughput and synaptic precision. Here we present Connectome-seq, a high-throughput method that combines engineered synaptic proteins, RNA barcoding, and single-compartment sequencing to map neuronal connectivity at single-synapse resolution. We validate this approach in the mouse pontocerebellar circuit, successfully identifying thousands of connections including the predominant excitatory projections from pontine neurons to cerebellar granule cells, while also revealing potentially novel synaptic partnerships. By enabling systematic mapping of neuronal connectivity across brain regions with single-cell precision, Connectome-seq provides a scalable platform for comprehensive circuit analysis across different experimental conditions and biological states. This advance in connectivity mapping methodology opens new possibilities for understanding circuit organization in complex mammalian brains.

A Blueprint of Sex-Specific Neuronal Regulation in the C. elegans Nervous System at Single-Cell Resolution

Project description:Sex-specific behaviors within a species are often attributed to variances in neuronal wiring and molecular signatures. However, how the genetic sex shapes the molecular architecture of the nervous system at a single neuron level is still unknown. To address this gap, we used single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) to profile the transcriptome of the sex-shared nervous system of adult male and hermaphrodite Caenorhabditis elegans. By ranking neurons based on the degree of molecular dimorphism, we uncover novel sexually dimorphic neurons such as PLM neurons, where functional dimorphism was corroborated by diminished posterior touch responses in hermaphrodites. We identify sex-specific regulators of mechanosensory behavior and neuronal function by combining our dataset with reverse genetic screens. While most sex-shared neurons retain their neurotransmitter identity, the male neuropeptide connectome undergoes substantial remodeling, with most of the neuropeptides showing a male-bias expression. This reinforces the notion that neuropeptides are crucial for diversifying connectome outputs. Furthermore, by correlating gene expression with outgoing synaptic connectivity, we identified regulatory candidates for synaptic wiring, including both shared and sex-specific genes. This comprehensive resource provides foundational insights into the molecular drivers of sexual dimorphism, facilitating future exploration of regulatory mechanisms and their impact on sex-specific behaviors in higher organisms.

Macromolecular connectivity landscape of mammalian brain

Project description:Connectivity webs mediate the unique biology of mammalian brain. Yet while cell and gene circuit maps are increasing in resolution, knowledge of the molecular interaction networks of the brain is limited. Here, we applied multidimensional biochemical fractionation with precision mass spectrometry to survey endogenous macromolecules in adult mouse brain. We defined a global ‘interactome’ landscape consisting of hundreds of multi-protein complexes, most never reported before. Brain selective assemblies exhibit distinctive biophysical and functional attributes, including enrichment for synaptic, RNA-binding and other evolutionarily conserved proteins showing tissue-, regional- and cell-type specificity. Strikingly, many macromolecules have links to diverse neurological disorders and disease variants, illustrating the broad pathophysiological relevance of the network. We validated a putative 15-member complex associated with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis using reciprocal pulldowns and a transgenic rodent model, establishing balancing functions in alternative splicing and disease progression. This resource facilitates exploration of the mechanistic basis of neuronal function, synaptic plasticity and diseases of the central nervous system.

The injury environment critically influences the brain-wide input connectome of transplanted neurons

Project description:Cell transplantation is a promising approach for reconstruction of neuronal circuits after brain damage. Transplanted neurons integrate with remarkable specificity into circuitries of the mouse cerebral cortex affected by neuronal ablation. However, it remains unclear how neurons perform in a local environment undergoing reactive gliosis, inflammation, macrophage infiltration and scar formation, as in brain trauma. To elucidate this, we transplanted cells from the embryonic murine cerebral cortex into stab-injured, inflamed-only, or intact cortex of adult mice. Brain-wide quantitative connectomics unraveled graft inputs from correct regions across the brain in all conditions, with pronounced quantitative differences: scarce in intact or inflamed brain, versus exuberant after trauma. In the latter, excessive synapse pruning follows the initial overshoot of connectivity resulting in only a few input connections left. Proteomic profiling identifies candidate molecules involved in the synaptic yield, a pivotal parameter to tailor for functional restoration of neuronal circuits.
