Project description:Fast-spiking (FS) interneurons are important elements of neocortical circuitry that constitute the primary source of synaptic inhibition in adult cortex and impart temporal organization on ongoing cortical activity. The highly specialized intrinsic membrane and firing properties that allow cortical FS interneurons to perform these functions are attributable to equally specialized gene expression, which is ultimately coordinated by cell-type-specific transcriptional regulation. Although embryonic transcriptional events govern the initial steps of cell-type specification in most cortical interneurons, including FS cells, the electrophysiological properties that distinguish adult cortical cell types emerge relatively late in postnatal development, and the transcriptional events that drive this maturational process are not known. To address this, we used mouse whole-genome microarrays and whole-cell patch clamp to characterize the transcriptional and electrophysiological maturation of cortical FS interneurons between postnatal day 7 (P7) and P40. We found that the intrinsic and synaptic physiology of FS cells undergoes profound regulation over the first 4 postnatal weeks and that these changes are correlated with primarily monotonic but bidirectional transcriptional regulation of thousands of genes belonging to multiple functional classes. Using our microarray screen as a guide, we discovered that upregulation of two-pore K leak channels between P10 and P25 contributes to one of the major differences between the intrinsic membrane properties of immature and adult FS cells and found a number of other candidate genes that likely confer cell-type specificity on mature FS cells. Experiment Overall Design: We characterized the transcriptional maturation of genetically labeled FS interneurons in mouse S1 cortex using whole-genome microarrays.mRNA was harvested from manually sorted GFPexpressing neurons dissociated from acutely prepared brain slices at a range of developmental time points (P7, P10, P15, P25, and P40) and subsequently reverse transcribed, amplified, labeled, and hybridized to Affymetrix 430 2.0 whole-genome microarrays (three microarrays from three different animals per condition). We used the G42 transgenic mice described by Chattopadhyaya et al. (2004) for all experiments.

Project description:Precise spatiotemporal control of mRNA translation machinery is essential to proper development of highly complex systems like the neocortex. Here, we show that an RNA-binding protein, Hu antigen R (HuR), regulates both neocorticogenesis and specificity of neocortical translation machinery in a developmental stagedependent manner in mice. Neocortical absence of HuR alters the phosphorylation states of the initiation and elongation factors of the core translation machinery. In addition, HuR regulates the temporally specific positioning of functionally related mRNAs into the active translation sites, the polysomes. HuR also determines the specificity of neocortical polysomes by defining their combinatorial composition of ribosomal proteins and initiation and elongation factors. For some of the HuR-dependent proteins, the association with polysomes depends on the eIF2 alpha kinase 4 (eIF2ak4), which associated with HuR in prenatal developing neocortices. Finally, we found that deletion of HuR prior to embryonic day 10 (E10) disrupts both neocortical lamination and formation of the main neocortical commissure, the corpus callosum. Our study identifies a crucial role for HuR in neocortical development as a translational gatekeeper for functionally related mRNA subgroups and polysomal protein specificity. Cortex was dissected from mouse pups at embryonic day 13 (E13) or the day of birth (P0).

Project description:Chromatin remodeling complexes modulate DNA accessibility permitting neuronal progenitor cells to proliferate and differentiate to form the mammalian neocortex. In the case of BPTF, the major subunit of a chromatin remodelling complex called NURF, mutations leading to its haploinsufficiency have been linked to cause a recently annotated human neurodevelopmental disorder called NEDDFL (Neurodevelopmental disorder with dysmorphic facies and distal limb anomalies). Patients with this syndrome are mainly characterized with microcephaly and intellectual disability. We conditionally knockout (cKO) the Bptf gene during neocortical neurogenesis to analyze its role during embryonic and postnatal brain development. The Bptf cKO animals reveal significant forebrain hypoplasia. During cortical neurogenesis, the cKOs show a reduction in intermediate neuronal progenitor (INP) cells, an increase in apoptosis as well as a prolonged cell cycle of proliferating progenitors. Similarly, the cKOs have decreased proportions of pyramidal neurons expressing Ctip2 and Foxp1. Lastly, our RNA-seq analysis delineates gene pathways deregulated by Bptf’s removal, which are involved in neurogenesis and neuronal differentiation. Our results indicate that Bptf is critical for murine telencephalon neurogenesis. The hypoplasia demonstrated in the mouse model can resemble the microcephaly displayed by the human NEDFFL patients, highlighting the relevance of chromatin remodelling complexes during intricate neural developmental processes.
