Single-minded 2 is required for left-right asymmetric stomach morphogenesis

ABSTRACT: Structural birth defects are the leading cause of infant mortality in the United States. Many of these defects are associated with abnormal anatomical left-right asymmetry. Despite the importance of orienting organs along the left-right (L-R) axis during development, very little is known about the molecular events that control this process. To elucidate the genetic mechanisms that shape the L-R asymmetry of individual organs, we sought to identify genes that are expressed in L-R asymmetric patterns during organ development. To accomplish this goal, we took advantage of the exceptionally large Budgett’s frog (Lepidobatrachus laevis) embryo to profile gene expression by RNA-seq in the left versus right halves of the developing stomach. Using this data, we have constructed a de novo Lepidobatrachus transcriptome and identified ~26,000 unique transcripts with human homology based on reciprocal BLAST analyses. Over 300 transcripts were L-R asymmetrically expressed within the stomach. Among these candidates are some of the few genes already known to play a role in L-R asymmetric development, validating our strategy for L-R gene discovery.

A chronological expression profile of gene activity during embryonic mouse brain development

Project description:The brain is a functionally complex organ, the patterning and development of which are key to adult health. To help elucidate the genetic networks underlying mammalian brain patterning we conducted detailed transcriptional profiling during embryonic development of the mouse brain. 2400 genes were identified as showing differential expression between three developmental stages. Analysis of the data identified nine gene clusters to demonstrate analogous expression profiles. A significant group of novel genes of as yet undiscovered biological function were detected, as being potentially relevant to brain development and function, in addition to genes that have previously identified roles in the brain. Analysis of left-right asymmetry of expression revealed 35 genes as putatively asymmetric from a combined data set. Our data constitutes a valuable new resource for neuroscience and neuro-development, exposing possible functional associations between genes, including novel loci, and encouraging their further investigation in human neurological and behavioural disorders. Whole genome transcriptional profiling carried out on 24 samples during 3 stages of embryonic development of the mouse brain was carried out with matching left-right asymmetry on four biological replicates at each stage.

Total expression profiling of embryonic regions of EHF mouse embryos

Project description:Establishment of left-right (LR) asymmetry occurs shortly after gastrulation and utilizes a cascade of events. In the mouse, LR symmetry is broken at the node, involves signal relay to the lateral plate, and results in asymmetric organ morphogenesis. How information transmits from the node to the lateral plate remains unclear. Noting that embryos lacking Sox17 exhibit defects in both gut endoderm formation and LR patterning, we investigated a connection between these two processes. We noted an endoderm-specific absence of the critical gap junction component, Connexin43, in Sox17 mutants. Dye-coupling experiments revealed planar gap junction coupling across the gut endoderm in wild-type but not mutant embryos. The role for gap junction communication in LR patterning was confirmed by pharmacological inhibition. Collectively, our data demonstrate communication across gap junctions in gut endoderm as a mechanism for information relay between node and lateral plate critical for the establishment of LR asymmetry in mice.

Subtle asymmetry of gene expression in embryonic and foetal human brains

Project description:Note: this project is a combination of the data deposited here in GEO and data made available by HDBR in ArrayExpress under E-MTAB-4840. Summary: Brain asymmetry in humans, both structurally and functionally, is observed very early during development, and is important for healthy development. Using RNA sequencing, we investigated gene expression profiles of left and right sides of various brain structures in human foetuses aged 5 to 13 weeks post conception. All brain structures showed significant differences between the expression profiles of left and right sides. The differences partly correlated with gene expression changes with age, suggesting left/right differences in maturation rate. In particular on the faster side (right for cerebral cortex, left for all other investigated tissues), different tissues were lateralised for tissue-specific processes. In the youngest forebrain (5.5 weeks), KCTD12, SNAI1 and GATA1 were significantly right-lateralised. SNAI1 is involved in visceral asymmetry in vertebrates, and KCTD12 is important in lateralisation of fish brains. In the youngest midbrain, SOX1 was significantly left-lateralised.

Transient Nodal signalling in left precursors coordinates opposed asymmetries shaping the heart loop

Project description:The secreted factor Nodal has been shown to be a major left determinant. Although it is associated with severe congenital heart defects, its role in heart morphogenesis has remained poorly understood. Here, we report that Nodal is transiently active in precursors of the mouse heart tube poles, before the morphological changes of heart looping. In conditional mutants, we show that Nodal is not required to initiate asymmetric morphogenesis. We provide evidence of a heart-specific random generator of asymmetry that is independent of Nodal. Using 3D quantifications and simulations, we demonstrate that Nodal functions as a bias of this mechanism: it is required to amplify and coordinate opposed left-right asymmetries at the heart tube poles, thus generating a robust helical shape. We identify downstream effectors of Nodal signalling, regulating asymmetries in cell proliferation, cell differentiation and extra-cellular matrix composition. Our work provides novel insight into how Nodal regulates asymmetric organogenesis.

Focal adhesion and NRF2 pathway regulate left-right asymmetries of rhesus hippocampus aging: relevance to human hippocampus aging and Alzheimer’s disease

Project description:Left-right asymmetry is a basic character of aging brain; however, the molecular foundation of the left-right asymmetry remains unclear. The morphology, physiology and behavior of rhesus aging are obviously similar to human aging, but the aging-rate of rhesus is roughly three times as fast as human, in which the underlying mechanism needs further investigation. By using of 6-plex tandem mass tag (TMT) labeling, we presented a high throughput quantitative proteomics analysis to 6 group hippocampal samples including left and right hippocampus from 3 years, 6 years and 20 years old rhesus. Our data identified 3391 high-confidence proteins. After screening, we found 340 aging-related proteins of left hippocampus and 334 aging-related proteins of right hippocampus, in which there were 114 overlap proteins. Furthermore, the aging-related proteome of left rhesus hippocampus aging was compared with human aging-related proteome of left hippocampus that was reported by our lab previously. As the results show, we discovered 446 aging-related proteins in rhesus and 830 aging-related proteins in human with an overlap of 106 proteins.

Comparaison of left and right cervical motoneurons transcriptome

Project description:Left and Right phrenic nerves, which innervate the left and right diaphragm muscles, exhibit different innervation patterns. This left/right (L/R) asymmetry is established at the onset of innervation by a developmental program that requires Nodal. Phenotype analysis suggests that the cervical motoneurons, which innervate the diaphragm, have a L/R imprint that contributes to set the L/R asymmetries of innervation. We used microarray to analyze the expression profile of left and right cervical motoneurons before diaphragm innervation

Left-right asymmetry of maturation rates in human embryonic neural development

Project description:Left-right asymmetry is a fundamental organizing feature of the human brain, and neuro-psychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia sometimes involve alterations of brain asymmetry. As early as 8 weeks post conception, the majority of human foetuses move their right arms more than their left arms, but because nerve fibre tracts are still descending from the forebrain at this stage, spinal-muscular asymmetries are likely to play an important developmental role. Here we have used gene expression profiling in 18 human embryos to show that the left side of the human spinal cord, between four and eight weeks post conception, matures slightly faster than the right side, even though both sides transition from transcriptional profiles associated with cell division and proliferation at earlier stages, to later neuronal differentiation and function. The hindbrain showed a left-right mirrored pattern compared to the spinal cord.
