Combinatorial transcription factor binding encodes cis-regulatory wiring of forebrain GABAergic neurogenesis

Project description:Transcription factors (TFs) bind combinatorially to genomic cis-regulatory elements (cREs), orchestrating transcription programs. While studies of chromatin state and chromosomal interactions have revealed dynamic neurodevelopmental cRE landscapes, parallel understanding of the underlying TF binding lags. To elucidate the combinatorial TF-cRE interactions driving mouse basal ganglia development, we integrated ChIP-seq for twelve TFs, H3K4me3-associated enhancer-promoter interactions, chromatin and transcriptional state, and transgenic enhancer assays. We identified TF-cREs modules with distinct chromatin features and enhancer activity that have complementary roles driving GABAergic neurogenesis and suppressing other developmental fates. While the majority of distal cREs were bound by one or two TFs, a small proportion were extensively bound, and these enhancers also exhibited exceptional evolutionary conservation, motif density, and complex chromosomal interactions. Our results provide new insights into how modules of combinatorial TF-cRE interactions activate and repress developmental expression programs and demonstrate the value of TF binding data in modeling gene regulatory wiring.

Identification of genes involved in GABAergic Wiring

Project description:How neurons are wired to form precise circuits is crucial to understand the development of cortical functions. Glutamatergic pyramidal cell and GABAergic interneuron wire up the cortex through differentiated cellular events. However, little is known about the molecular mechanisms that underlie the unique features of interneuron wiring. We performed a high-throughput genomic screen for genes upregulated specifically during GABAergic wiring.

Nr4a1 regulates cell-specific transcriptional programs in inhibitory GABAergic interneurons

Project description:The patterns of synaptic connectivity and physiological properties of diverse neuron types are shaped by distinct gene sets. Our study demonstrates that, in the mouse forebrain, the transcriptional profiles of inhibitory GABAergic interneurons are regulated by Nr4a1, an orphan nuclear receptor whose expression is transiently induced by sensory experiences and is required for normal learning. Nr4a1 exerts contrasting effects on the local axonal wiring of Parvalbumin- and Somatostatin-positive interneurons, which innervate different subcellular domains of their postsynaptic partners. The loss of Nr4a1 activity in these interneurons results in bidirectional, cell-type-specific transcriptional switches across multiple gene families, including those involved in surface adhesion and repulsion. Our findings reveal that combinatorial synaptic organizing codes are surprisingly flexible and highlight a mechanism by which inducible transcription factors can influence neural circuit structure and function.

Genomic Resolution of DLX-orchestrated Transcriptional Circuits Driving Development of Forebrain GABAergic Neurons

Project description:DLX transcription factors (TFs) are master regulators of the developing vertebrate brain, driving forebrain GABAergic neuronal differentiation. Ablation of Dlx1&2 alters expression of genes that are critical for forebrain GABAergic development. We integrated epigenomic and transcriptomic analyses, complemented with in situ hybridization (ISH), and in vivo and in vitro studies of regulatory element (RE) function. This elucidated the DLX-organized gene regulatory network at genomic, cellular, and spatial level in mouse embryonic basal ganglia. DLX TFs perform dual activating and repressing functions; the consequences of their binding were determined by the sequence and genomic context of target loci. Our results reveal and, in part, explain the paradox of widespread DLX binding contrasted with a limited subset of target loci that are sensitive at the epigenomic and transcriptomic level to Dlx1&2 ablation. The regulatory properties identified here for DLX TFs suggest general mechanisms by which TFs orchestrate dynamic expression programs underlying neurodevelopment.

Rapid conversion of fibroblasts into functional forebrain GABAergic interneurons by direct genetic reprogramming

Project description:Transplantation of GABAergic interneurons (INs) can sustain long-standing benefits in animal models of epilepsy and other neurological disorders. In a therapeutic perspective, a renewable source of functional GABAergic INs is needed. Here, we identified five factors (Foxg1, Sox2, Ascl1, Dlx5 and Lhx6) able to convert fibroblasts directly into induced GABAergic INs (iGABA-INs), displaying the molecular signature of telencephalic INs. The selected factors recapitulate in fibroblasts the activation of transcriptional networks required for the specification of GABAergic fate during telencephalon development. iGABA-INs exhibited progressively maturing firing patterns comparable to those of cortical INs, had synaptic currents and released GABA. Importantly, upon grafting in the hippocampus, iGABA-INs survived, matured and their optogenetic stimulation triggered GABAergic transmission and inhibited the activity of connected granule cells. The five factors also converted human cells into functional GABAergic neurons. These properties define iGABA-INs as a promising tool for disease modeling and cell-based therapeutic approaches. Comparison of iGABA-INs transcriptional profile with those of starting fibroblasts and GAD67-GFP+ cortical interneurons.

Transcriptional Networks Controlled by NKX2-1 in the Development of Forebrain GABAergic Neurons (microarray)

Project description:The embryonic basal ganglia generates multiple projection neurons and interneuron subtypes from distinct progenitor domains. Combinatorial interactions of transcription factors (TFs), regulatory elements (REs), and chromatin are thought to precisely regulate gene expression. In the medial ganglionic eminence (MGE), the NKX2-1 TF controls regional identity and, with LHX6, is necessary to specify pallidal projection neurons and forebrain interneurons. We dissected the molecular functions of NKX2-1 by defining its chromosomal binding regions, regulation of gene expression and epigenetic state. NKX2-1 binding at distal REs led to a repressed epigenetic state and transcriptional repression in the ventricular zone. Conversely, Nkx2-1 is required to establish a permissive chromatin state and transcriptional activation in the sub- ventricular and mantle zones. Moreover, combinatorial binding of NKX2-1 and LHX6 promotes transcriptionally permissive chromatin and activates genes expressed in cortical migrating interneurons. Our integrated approach provides a foundation for elucidating transcriptional networks guiding the development of the MGE and its descendants.
