Project description:Neural organoids are invaluable model systems for studying neurodevelopment and neurological diseases. For this purpose, reproducible differentiation protocols are needed that minimize inter-organoid variability whilst generating neural organoids that physiologically resemble the brain area of interest. Currently, two main approaches are used: guided, where the differentiation towards neuroectoderm and subsequently specific CNS regions is driven by applying extrinsic signalling molecules, and unguided, where the intrinsic capability of pluripotent stem cells to generate neuroectoderm without external signalling is promoted. Despite the importance for the field, the resulting differences between these models have not been directly investigated. To obtain an unbiased comparison, we performed a multi-omic analysis of forebrain organoids generated using a guided and unguided approach focusing on proteomic, lipidomic and metabolomic differences. Furthermore, we characterised differences in phosphorylation and sialylation states of proteins, two key post-translational modifications (PTMs) in neurodevelopment, and performed single cell transcriptomics (scRNAseq). The multi-omic analysis revealed considerable differences in neuronal-, synaptic and glial content, indicating that guided forebrain organoids contain a larger proportion of neurons, including GABAergic interneurons, and synapses whereas unguided organoids contain significantly more GFAP+ cells and choroid plexus. Furthermore, substantial differences in mitochondrial- and metabolic profiles were identified, pointing to increased levels of oxidative phosphorylation and fatty acid β-oxidation in unguided forebrain organoids and a higher reliance on glycolysis in guided forebrain organoids. Overall, our study comprises a thorough description of the multi-omic differences arising when generating guided and unguided forebrain organoids and provide an important resource for the organoid field studying neurodevelopment and -disease.
