Project description:The epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and migration of cranial neural crest cells are critical processes that occur in the early embryo that permit proper craniofacial patterning. Disruptions in these processes not only impair development but also lead to various diseases, underscoring the need for their detailed understanding at the molecular level. The chick embryo has served historically as an excellent model for human embryonic development. While chick cranial neural crest cell EMT and migration have been characterized at the transcript level, studies at the protein level—to allow direct measurement of the active players—have not been undertaken to date. In this study, we applied mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics to establish a deep proteomics profile of the midbrain region during early embryonic development. We developed a proteomics method combining optimal lysis conditions and offline fractionation with nanoflow liquid chromatography coupled to high-resolution MS to analyze the tissue from this region, which identified >5,900 proteins involved in key pathways related to neural crest cell EMT and migration such as signaling, proteolysis/extracellular matrix (ECM), and transcriptional regulation. This study offers valuable insight into important developmental processes occurring in the midbrain region and demonstrates the utility of proteomics for characterization of various tissues during chick embryogenesis.

Project description:Rhombomeres serve to position neural progenitors in the embryonic hindbrain, thereby ensuring appropriate neural circuit formation, but the molecular identities of individual rhombomeres and the mechanism whereby they form have not been fully established. Here we apply scMultiome analysis in zebrafish to molecularly resolve all rhombomeres for the first time. We find that rhombomeres become molecularly distinct between 10hpf (end of gastrulation) and 13hpf (early segmentation). While the mature hindbrain consists of alternating odd- versus even-type rhombomeres, our scMultiome analyses do not detect extensive odd versus even characteristics in the early hindbrain. Instead, we find that each rhombomere displays a unique gene expression and chromatin profile. Prior to the appearance of distinct rhombomeres, we detect three hindbrain progenitor clusters (PHPDs) that correlate with the earliest visually observed segments in the hindbrain primordium and that represent prospective rhombomere r2/r3 (possibly including r1), r4 and r5/r6, respectively. We further find that the PHPDs form in response to Fgf and RA morphogens and that individual PHPD cells co-express markers of multiple mature rhombomeres. We propose that the PHPDs contain mixed-identity progenitors and that their subdivision into individual mature rhombomeres requires resolution of these mixed-identity cell states.

Project description:Hindbrain boundary cells of st. 18 HH chick embryo express the ECM molecule Chondrotin sulphate proteoglycan (CSPG). To determine whether the ventricular zone of hindbrain boundaries act as reservoirs of NPSCs, we separated between hindbrain boundary cells and the rest of hindbrain cells based on the expression pattern of CSPG which seemed membrane-bound. FACS approach was used to isolate CSPG-positive cells and CSPG-negative cells. 4-6 biological replicates, each composed of cells from 30 hindbrains, underwent RNA-sequencing. These RNA-sequencing results were used for gene expression profiling analysis and functional characterization of the different cell groups.

Project description:The inner ear develops from a patch of thickened cranial ectoderm adjacent to the hindbrain called the otic placode. Studies in a number of vertebrate species suggest that the initial steps in induction of the otic placode are regulated by members of the Fibroblast Growth Factor (FGF) family, and that inhibition of FGF signaling can prevent otic placode formation. To better understand the genetic pathways activated by FGF signaling during otic placode induction, we performed microarray experiments to estimate the proportion of chicken otic placode genes that can be up-regulated by the FGF pathway in a simple culture model of otic placode induction. Surprisingly, we find that FGF is only sufficient to induce about 15% of chick otic placode-specific genes in our experimental system. However, pharmacological blockade of the FGF pathway in cultured chick embryos showed that although FGF signaling was not sufficient to induce the majority of otic placode-specific genes, it was still necessary for their expression in vivo. These inhibitor experiments further suggest that the early steps in otic placode induction regulated by FGF signaling occur through the MAP kinase pathway. Although our work suggests that FGF signaling is necessary for otic placode induction, it demonstrates that other unidentified signaling pathways are required to co-operate with FGF signaling to induce the full otic placode program. 8 samples were analyzed. These contain two replicates of each of the following four catergories: Otic ectoderm, Non-Otic (lateral) ectoderm, Trigeminal Ectoderm cultured - FGF, Trigeminal Ectoderm cultured + FGF
