Single-cell RNA Sequencing Reveals Midbrain Dopamine Neuron Diversity Emerging During Mouse Brain Development

Project description:Midbrain dopamine (mDA) neurons constitute a heterogenous group of cells that have been intensely studied, not least because mDA neuron degeneration causes major symptoms in Parkinson’s disease. Diversity of mDA neurons has previously been well characterized anatomically but understanding diversity at a more complete molecular level has not previously been achieved. Here, we used single cell RNA sequencing of isolated mouse neurons expressing the transcription factor Pitx3, a marker for all types of mDA neurons. Analyses included cells isolated during development up until adulthood and was validated by histological characterization of newly identified markers. This characterization identified seven neuron subgroups divided in two major branches of developing Pitx3-expressing neurons. Five of these groups were dopaminergic, one glutamatergic and one GABAergic. Analyses also indicated evolutionary conservation of diversity in humans. This comprehensive molecular characterization will provide a molecular framework for further studies of the developing and mature mDA neuron subgroups in the mammalian brain.

Chronic hyperactivation of midbrain dopamine neurons causes preferential dopamine neuron degeneration

Project description:Parkinson’s disease (PD) is characterized by the death of substantia nigra (SNc) dopamine (DA) neurons, but the pathophysiological mechanisms that precede and drive their death remain unknown. The activity of DA neurons is likely altered in PD, but we understand little about if or how chronic changes in activity may contribute to degeneration. To address this question, we developed a chemogenetic (DREADD) mouse model to chronically increase DA neuron activity, and confirmed this increase using ex vivo electrophysiology. Chronic hyperactivation of DA neurons resulted in prolonged increases in locomotor activity during the light cycle and decreases during the dark cycle, consistent with chronic changes in DA release and circadian disturbances. We also observed early, preferential degeneration of SNc projections, recapitulating the PD hallmarks of selective vulnerability of SNc axons and the comparative resilience of ventral tegmental area axons. This was followed by eventual loss of midbrain DA neurons. Continuous DREADD activation resulted in a sustained increase in baseline calcium levels, supporting a role for increased calcium in the neurodegeneration process. Finally, spatial transcriptomics from DREADD mice examining midbrain DA neurons and striatal targets, and cross-validation with human patient samples, provided insights into potential mechanisms of hyperactivity-induced toxicity and PD. Our results thus reveal the preferential vulnerability of SNc DA neurons to increased neural activity, and support a potential role for increased neural activity in driving degeneration in PD.

Biphasic activation of WNT signaling enhances the derivation of midbrain dopamine neurons for translational use [ChIP-seq]

Project description:We report a novel midbrain dopamine neuron derivation protocol from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSC)s based on a two-step WNT signaling activation strategy. We perform genome-wide chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP-seq) for histone modifications including H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 with midbrain dopamine neuron differentiated cells from hPSC in Low-Chir and Boost-Chir (7.5 uM) conditions at day 11. Those results indicate that CHIR-boost promotes a more open chromatin structure at midbrain regions such as an EN1 locus based on increased H3K4me3 and decreased H3K27me3 levels. In contrast, analysis of the contaminating posterior (hindbrain) and anterior (diencephalic) lineage including NKX2-2 and PAX6 loci showed the opposite pattern with decreased H3K4me3 and increased H3K27me3 levels under CHIR-boost conditions. The protocol presented here is the basis for clinical grade dopamine neuron production and preclinical safety and efficacy studies.

Single-cell RNA sequencing reveals midbrain dopamine neuron diversity emerging during mouse brain development.

Project description:Midbrain dopamine (mDA) neurons constitute a heterogenous group of cells that have been intensely studied, not least because their degeneration causes major symptoms in Parkinson's disease. Understanding the diversity of mDA neurons - previously well characterized anatomically - requires a systematic molecular classification at the genome-wide gene expression level. Here, we use single cell RNA sequencing of isolated mouse neurons expressing the transcription factor Pitx3, a marker for mDA neurons. Analyses include cells isolated during development up until adulthood and the results are validated by histological characterization of newly identified markers. This identifies seven neuron subgroups divided in two major branches of developing Pitx3-expressing neurons. Five of them express dopaminergic markers, while two express glutamatergic and GABAergic markers, respectively. Analysis also indicate evolutionary conservation of diversity in humans. This comprehensive molecular characterization will provide a valuable resource for elucidating mDA neuron subgroup development and function in the mammalian brain.

Biphasic activation of WNT signaling enhances the derivation of midbrain dopamine neurons for translational use [RNA-seq]

Project description:We report a novel midbrain dopamine neuron derivation protocol from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSC)s based on a two-step WNT signaling activation strategy. By comparing next-generation sequencing (NGS) derived transcriptome profiling (RNA-seq) of dopamine neuron differentiated cells derived from hPSC with different concentration of Chir-boosting (day4 – day9) measured at day 11 including hPSC, we find that CHIR-boosting improves expression of midbrain markers such as EN1 while minimizing expression of contaminating posterior (hindbrain) and anterior (diencephalic) lineage markers. Furthermore, gene expression analysis from RNA-seq study confirmed the progressive differentiation and maturation of Boost CHIR treated precursors into mDA neurons by day 30 of differentiation. The protocol presented here is the basis for clinical grade dopamine neuron production and preclinical safety and efficacy studies.

Transcriptomic profiling of long non-coding RNAs identifies circRmst as a regulator of midbrain dopamine neuron migration

Project description:Midbrain dopamine (mDA) neurons play an essential role in cognitive and motor behaviours and are linked to different brain disorders. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying their development, and in particular the role of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), remain incompletely understood. Here, we establish the transcriptomic landscape and alternative splicing patterns of linear and circular ncRNAs (lncRNAs and circRNAs) at key developmental timepoints in mouse mDA neurons using short and long-read RNAseq. Spatial analysis shows strong and subregion-specific expression of circRmst in mDA neurons and its post-transcriptional silencing affects soma size, TH+ neuron number, and mDA neuron positioning. Time-laps imaging indeed reveals that circRmst inhibits migration speed in developing mDA neurons. Together, these data for the first time establish a functional role for circRNAs in mDA neurons, further characterize poorly defined aspects of mDA neuron development, and provide a unique framework for future interrogation of lncRNAs in developing mDA neurons.

TNF-NFkB-p53 axis restricts in vivo survival of hPSC-derived dopamine neuron (RNA-Seq)

Project description:Cas9 screen to enhance survival of postmitotic dopamine neurons in vivo. We identified TP53-mediated apoptotic cell death as major contributor to dopamine neuron loss and uncovered a causal link of TNFa-NFκB signaling in limiting cell survival. A surface marker screen enabled the purification of midbrain dopamine neurons obviating the need for genetic reporters. Combining cell sorting with adalimumab pretreatment, a clinically approved TNFa inhibitor, enabled efficient engraftment of postmitotic dopamine neurons leading to extensive re-innervation and functional recovery in a preclinical PD mouse model. Thus, transient TNFa inhibition may present a clinically relevant strategy to enhance survival of human PSC-derived lineages in PD and beyond.
