Project description:Maternal effect genes (MEGs) are expressed in the oocyte and early mammalian preimplantation embryo. Impaired MEG function can impact offspring development and health. We investigated the consequences of postimplantation embryonic and extra-embryonic development in mice with maternal loss-of-function of Nlrp2, an MEG that encodes a protein of the subcortical maternal complex (SCMC). We employed three mating schemes, wildtype (WT) x WT, maternal Nlrp2-knock-out (KO) x WT, and WT x paternal Nlrp2-KO, to study the embryonic and extraembryonic phenotypes at embryonic day 11.5. Concepti of maternal Nlrp2-KO matings have striking abnormalities, including aberrant yolk sac vasculature, lower embryo to yolk sac area ratios, increased embryo resorption, and embryos with variably severe craniofacial abnormalities, and congenital heart defects. The placentas have significant morphological abnormalities, particularly in the junctional zone and labyrinth layers. This indicates that Nlrp2 is important for trophoblast development and placental architecture, supported by significantly altered gene expression profiles in the placentas of pregnant Nlrp2-KO mice. Taken together, these findings highlight the importance of maternal Nlrp2 for embryonic and placental development, and for the first time confirm that inactivating maternal effect mutations can cause disrupted placental development along with congenital cardiac and other anomalies. In conclusion, maternal loss of Nlrp2 profoundly impacts mouse embryonic and extra-embryonic development, highlighting a new role of MEGs. These findings pave the way for future research into genetic mechanisms underlying congenital anomalies and developmental disorders.

Project description:During mammalian pre-implantation development, the cells of the blastocyst’s inner cell mass differentiate into the epiblast and primitive endoderm lineages, which give rise to the fetus and extra-embryonic tissues, respectively. Extra-embryonic endoderm differentiation can be modeled in vitro by induced expression of GATA transcription factors in mouse embryonic stem cells. Here we use this GATA-inducible system to quantitatively monitor the dynamics of global proteomic changes during the early stages of this differentiation event and also investigate the fully differentiated phenotype, as represented by embryo-derived extra-embryonic endoderm (XEN) cells. Using mass spectrometry-based quantitative proteomic profiling with multivariate data analysis tools, we reproducibly quantified 2,336 proteins across three biological replicates and have identified clusters of proteins characterized by distinct, dynamic temporal abundance profiles. We first used this approach to highlight novel marker candidates of the pluripotent state and extra-embryonic endoderm differentiation. Through functional annotation enrichment analysis, we have shown that the downregulation of chromatin-modifying enzymes, the re-organization of membrane trafficking machinery and the breakdown of cell-cell adhesion are successive steps of the extra-embryonic differentiation process. Thus, applying a range of sophisticated clustering approaches to a time-resolved proteomic dataset has allowed the elucidation of complex biological processes which characterize stem cell differentiation and could establish a general paradigm for the investigation of these processes.

Project description:To identify novel genetic causes of congenital kidney anomalies(KA), we performed a whole genome copy number variation (CNV) detection in 62 patients with KA using Agilent SurePrint G3 Human CGH Microarray Kit (1x1M). Agilent sex-matched human DNA was used as reference. Data were extracted using Agilent Feature Extraction software v10.7 and CNVs were called using the ADM-II algorithm with a threshold of 6.0 in Agilent CytoGenomics software v5.0. With a systematic analysis, we identified 10 known or novel genomic imbalances in 9 (14.5%) cases.

Project description:Axis specification in mouse is determined by a sequence of reciprocal interactions between embryonic and extra-embryonic tissues so that a few extra-embryonic genes appear as ‘patterning’ the embryo. Considering these interactions as essential, but lacking in most mammals the genetically driven approaches used in mouse and the corresponding patterning mutants, we examined whether a molecular signature originating from extra-embryonic tissues could relate to the developmental stage of the embryo proper and predict it. To this end, we have profiled bovine extra-embryonic tissues at peri-implantation stages, when gastrulation and early neurulation occur, and analysed the subsequent expression profiles through the use of predictive methods as previously reported for tumour classification. A set of six genes (CALM1, CPA3, CITED1, DLD, HNRNPDL, and TGFB3), half of which had not been previously associated with any extra-embryonic feature, appeared significantly discriminative and mainly dependent on embryonic tissues for its faithful expression. The predictive value of this set of genes for gastrulation and early neurulation stages, as assessed on naive samples, was remarkably high (93%). In silico connected to the bovine orthologues of the mouse patterning genes, this gene set is proposed as a new trait for embryo staging. As such, this will allow saving the bovine embryo proper for molecular or cellular studies. To us, it offers as well new perspectives for developmental phenotyping and modelling of embryonic/extra-embryonic co-differentiation.

Project description:We performed scRNAseq on embryonic and extra-embryonic mesoderm cells from mouse embryo at Mid/Late Streak stage (Embryonic day 7.25) as well as on Late Bud stage (Embryonic day 7.75) microdissected amnion, chorion and allantois. We used transgenic embryos (Brachyury-Cre; mTmG) in which all mesoderm cells are converted to membrane-GFP upon Cre-mediated recombination and the rest express membrane Tomato. For all the samples, we identified clusters related to the localization in the tissue or the structures. Those results provide an atlas of early stages of morphogenesis of the maternal-fetal interface.

One independent target per embryo was generated and hybridised onto one array. 5 measurements per embryonic stage were generated.

Project description:An increasing number of studies suggests that embryonic development is a highly plastic process and that lineage specification can proceed via alternative routes not encompassed in canonically defined germ layers. Despite these recent revisions to fate maps, the differentiation of pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) to specific lineages tends to continue to focus on defined germ layer differentiation. Thus although recent studies suggest that the visceral organs originate from both embryonic and extra-embryonic lineages, PSC differentiation has focused on generating definitive and gut endoderm solely via an embryonic trajectory. To better resolve the lineage trajectories during development and during corresponding in vitro differentiation, we used MARS-seq to generate a single-cell RNA-seq datasets from mouse embryos expressing a Foxa2Venus reporter and in vitro embryonic stem cell (ESC) differentiation towards definitive endoderm. We coupled this data to a new simplified computational approach to compare cell types, both within our own transcriptomes and across different datasets. Based on this analysis, we captured the central intermediate in the transition between extra-embryonic and embryonic endoderm. When we assessed in vitro ESC differentiation in a number of different endoderm protocols, we found no evidence for this transient intermediate population during differentiation, only traditional embryo-like populations. We then directly tested the capacity of extra-embryonic endoderm to generate organ specific cell types, exploiting our previously defined cell culture system for naïve extra-embryonic endoderm (nEnd). We found that nEnd exhibited gene expression states that reflects early extra-embryonic identity and could be further differentiated to embryonic gut organoids. Taken together, this suggests self-renewing extra-embryonic nEnd represents a source of definitive organ cell types and suggests that in vitro differentiation should take full advantage of the recent observations about developmental plasticity.

Project description:We analyzed lncRNAs located in CNV loci associated with congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract (CAKUT). HSALNG0134318 at CNV 22q11 was identified as CAKUT related lncRNA, which was coexpressed with multiple known CAKUT associated genes. To validate our findings, we performed knockdown experiments in HEK293 cell line to characterize the trascriptomic profiles regulated by HSALNG0134318 in human embryonic kidney cells.
