GABAA receptors and mother-derived taurine regulate neural progenitor cells specification in the mouse developing cortex

ABSTRACT: The precise temporal regulation of the cellular properties of neural progenitor cells (NPCs) is essential for the histogenesis of the cerebral cortex. Neuroepithelial cells, the primary NPCs, transit to radial glia with astroglial properties. To coincide with this transition, NPCs start to differentiate into neurons, undergoing a switch from symmetric to asymmetric cell division. After the onset of neurogenesis, NPCs produce layer-specific neurons in a defined order. Here, we show that GABAA receptors and taurine are involved in this regulatory mechanism. Fetal exposure to GABAA blockers suppressed the transition to radial glia, the switch to asymmetric division and the differentiation into upper-layer neurons. Fetal exposure to GABAA positive modulators caused the opposite effects. Ca2+ imaging studies showed that NPCs principally responded to taurine, but not GABA, which is derived principally from mothers, before E13 via picrotoxin-sensitive receptors. Fetal exposure to GABAA receptor modulators resulted in considerable alterations in offspring behavior.

Transcription profiling of mouse functionally distinct radial glial subsets

Project description:Since the discovery of radial glia as the source of neurons, their heterogeneity in regard to neurogenesis has been described by clonal and time-lapse analysis in vitro. However, the molecular determinants specifying neurogenic radial glia differently from radial glia that mostly self-renew remain ill-defined. Here, we isolated two radial glial subsets that co-exist at mid-neurogenesis in the developing cerebral cortex and their immediate progeny. While one subset generates neurons directly, the other is largely non-neurogenic but also gives rise to Tbr2-positive basal precursors, thereby contributing indirectly to neurogenesis. Isolation of ; these distinct radial glia subtypes allowed determining interesting differences in their transcriptome. These transcriptomes were also strikingly different from the transcriptome of radial glia isolated at the end of neurogenesis. This analysis therefore identifies, for the first time, the lineage origin of basal progenitors and the molecular differences of this lineage in comparison to directly neurogenic and gliogenic radial glia.

Human-specific gene ARHGAP11B promotes basal progenitor amplification and neocortex expansion

Project description:The evolutionary expansion of the human neocortex reflects increased amplification of basal progenitors in the subventricular zone, producing more neurons during fetal corticogenesis. Here, we analyze the transcriptomes of distinct progenitor subpopulations isolated by a novel approach from developing mouse and human neocortex. We identify 56 genes preferentially expressed in human apical and basal radial glia that lack mouse orthologs. Among these, ARHGAP11B has the highest degree of radial glia-specific expression. ARHGAP11B arose from partial duplication of the Rho GTPase-activating-protein–encoding ARHGAP11A on the human lineage after separation from the chimpanzee lineage. Expression of ARHGAP11B in embryonic mouse neocortex promotes basal progenitor generation and self-renewal, and can increase cortical plate area and induce gyrification. Hence, ARHGAP11B may have contributed to evolutionary expansion of human neocortex. Gene expression profiles of mouse and human purified neocortical progenitor types and neurons were generated by RNA-seq and analyzed including inter- and intra-species comparison.

Lysosomal Dynamics Orchestrate Neurogenesis [RIP-Seq]

Project description:Lysosomes are cellular recycling stations and metabolic signaling hubs. Whether lysosome dynamics regulate mammalian brain development is unknown. We found that radial glia cells possess a large number of endolysosomes and that asymmetric inheritance of lysosomes in daughters of radial glia cells can predict fate and cell cycle length. To determine the lysosomal regulation of translation initiation by mTORC1/eIF4E axis, we performed RNA immunoprecipitation sequencing (RIP-seq) with antibody against eIF4E in E13.5 neocortex.

Single cell sequencing of radial glia progeny reveals diversity of newborn neurons in the adult zebrafish brain

Project description:Zebrafish display widespread and pronounced adult neurogenesis, which is fundamental for their regeneration capability after central nervous system injury. However, the cellular identity and the biological properties of adult newborn neurons are elusive for most brain areas. Here, we used short-term lineage tracing of radial glia progeny to prospectively isolate newborn neurons from the her4.1+ radial glia lineage in the homeostatic adult forebrain. Transcriptome analysis of radial glia, newborn neurons and mature neurons using single cell sequencing identified distinct transcriptional profiles including novel markers for each population. Specifically, we detected 2 separate newborn neuron types, which showed diversity of cell fate commitment and location. Further analyses showed homology of these cell types to neurogenic cells in the mammalian brain, identified neurogenic commitment in proliferating radial glia and indicated that glutamatergic projection neurons fate are generated in the adult zebrafish telecephalon. Thus, we prospectively isolated adult newborn neurons from the adult zebrafish forebrain, identified markers for newborn and mature neurons in the adult brain, revealed intrinsic heterogeneity among adult newborn neurons and their homology to mammalian adult neurogenic cell types.

Lysosomal Dynamics Orchestrate Neurogenesis [Polysome-seq]

Project description:Lysosomes are cellular recycling stations and metabolic signaling hubs. Whether lysosome dynamics regulate mammalian brain development is unknown. We found that radial glia cells possess a large number of endolysosomes and that asymmetric inheritance of lysosomes in daughters of radial glia cells can predict fate and cell cycle length. To determine the translation control by the mTORC1, we performed polysome profiling of mRNAs associated with >3 ribosomes for neural progenitor cells that treated with DMSO or Torin1 for 2 hours.

Single cell RNA-sequencing of 75-day old human H1 and H9 embryonic stem cell-derived cerebral organoids

Project description:The scRNA-seq analysis of 75 day old human cerebral organoids grown at the air-liquid interface (ALI-COs) reveals six well-defined major clusters. Cell-type and maturity markers define a (1) distinct population of deep layer subcortical projection neurons, (2) upper layer intracortical (callosal) projection neurons and intermediate progenitors, (3) ventricular and subventricular zone radial glial cells, (4) more mature upper and deep layer neurons, (5) interneurons and (6) actively dividing cells with intermediate progenitor and radial glia markers. In addition, the gene expression profile of these clusters corresponds with their expected functional characteristics appropriate to their maturity. Altogether, our data reflect a full repertoire of cortical neuronal and progenitor identities corresponding with the stages of cortical development in age-matched fetal brains.

The kinesin Kif21b regulates radial migration of cortical projection neurons through a non-canonical function on actin cytoskeleton.

Project description:Completion of neuronal migration is critical for brain development. Kif21b is a plus-end directed kinesin motor protein that promotes intracellular transport and controls microtubule dynamics in neurons. Here we report a physiological function of Kif21b during radial migration of projection neurons in the mouse developing cortex. In vivo analysis in mouse and live imaging on cultured slices demonstrate that Kif21b regulates the radial glia-guided locomotion of new-born neurons independently of its motility on microtubules. Unexpectedly we show that Kif21b directly binds and regulates the actin cytoskeleton both in vitro and in vivo in migratory neurons. We establish that Kif21b-mediated regulation of actin cytoskeleton dynamics influences branching and nucleokinesis during neuronal locomotion. Altogether, our results reveal atypical roles of Kif21b on the actin cytoskeleton during migration of cortical projection neurons
