Project description:PNPLA8, one of the calcium-independent phospholipase A2 enzymes, is involved in various physiological conditions through the maintenance of membrane phospholipids. However, little is known about its role in brain development. Here, we report 14 individuals from 12 unrelated families with biallelic ultra-rare variants in PNPLA8 presenting with a wide spectrum of clinical features ranging from developmental and epileptic-dyskinetic encephalopathy (DEDE) to progressive movement disorders and no phenotype depending on the variants and their positions. Complete loss of PNPLA8 was associated with the severe end of the spectrum showing DEDE manifestations and congenital or progressive microcephaly. Using cerebral organoids generated from human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), we found that loss of PNPLA8 reduces the abundance of basal radial glial cells (bRGCs) and upper-layer neurons. By spatial transcriptomic analysis targeting apical radial glial cells (aRGCs), we found the downregulation of bRGC-related gene sets in patient-derived cerebral organoids. Lipidomic analysis revealed a decrease in the amount of lysophosphatidic acid, lysophosphatidylethanolamine, and phosphatidic acid, indicative of the disturbed phospholipid metabolism in PNPLA8 knockout neural progenitor cells. Our data suggest that PNPLA8 has a critical role in the bRGC-mediated expansion of the developing human cortex by regulating the fate commitment of aRGCs.

Project description:Patatin-like phospholipase domain-containing lipase 8 (PNPLA8), one of the calcium-independent phospholipase A2 enzymes, is involved in various physiological processes through the maintenance of membrane phospholipids. Biallelic variants in PNPLA8 have been associated with a range of paediatric neurodegenerative disorders. However, the phenotypic spectrum, genotype-phenotype correlations and the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. Here, we newly identified 14 individuals from 12 unrelated families with biallelic ultra-rare variants in PNPLA8 presenting with a wide phenotypic spectrum of clinical features. Analysis of the clinical features of current and previously reported individuals (25 affected individuals across 20 families) showed that PNPLA8-related neurological diseases manifest as a continuum ranging from variable developmental and/or degenerative epileptic-dyskinetic encephalopathy to childhood-onset neurodegeneration. We found that complete loss of PNPLA8 was associated with the more profound end of the spectrum, with congenital microcephaly. Using cerebral organoids generated from human induced pluripotent stem cells, we found that loss of PNPLA8 led to developmental defects by reducing the number of basal radial glial cells and upper-layer neurons. Spatial transcriptomics revealed that loss of PNPLA8 altered the fate specification of apical radial glial cells, as reflected by the enrichment of gene sets related to the cell cycle, basal radial glial cells and neural differentiation. Neural progenitor cells lacking PNPLA8 showed a reduced amount of lysophosphatidic acid, lysophosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidic acid. The reduced number of basal radial glial cells in patient-derived cerebral organoids was rescued, in part, by the addition of lysophosphatidic acid. Our data suggest that PNPLA8 is crucial to meet phospholipid synthetic needs and to produce abundant basal radial glial cells in human brain development.

Project description:Since the discovery of radial glia as the source of neurons, their heterogeneity in regard to neurogenesis has been described by clonal and time-lapse analysis in vitro. However, the molecular determinants specifying neurogenic radial glia differently from radial glia that mostly self-renew remain ill-defined. Here, we isolated two radial glial subsets that co-exist at mid-neurogenesis in the developing cerebral cortex and their immediate progeny. While one subset generates neurons directly, the other is largely non-neurogenic but also gives rise to Tbr2-positive basal precursors, thereby contributing indirectly to neurogenesis. Isolation of ; these distinct radial glia subtypes allowed determining interesting differences in their transcriptome. These transcriptomes were also strikingly different from the transcriptome of radial glia isolated at the end of neurogenesis. This analysis therefore identifies, for the first time, the lineage origin of basal progenitors and the molecular differences of this lineage in comparison to directly neurogenic and gliogenic radial glia.

Project description:The neocortex, the center for higher brain function, first emerged in mammals and has become massively expanded and folded in humans, constituting almost half the volume of the human brain. Primary microcephaly, a developmental disorder in which the brain is smaller than normal at birth, mainly results from there being fewer neurons in the neocortex because of defects in neural progenitor cells (NPCs). Outer radial glia (oRGs), NPCs that are abundant in gyrencephalic species but rare in lisencephalic species, are thought to play key roles in the expansion and folding of the neocortex. However, how oRGs expand, whether they are necessary for neocortical folding, and whether defects in oRGs cause microcephaly remain important questions in the study of brain development, evolution, and disease. Here, we show that oRG expansion in mice, ferrets, and human cerebral organoids requires cyclin-dependent kinase 6 (CDK6), the mutation of which causes primary microcephaly via an unknown mechanism. In a mouse model in which increased Hedgehog signaling expands oRGs and intermediate progenitor cells and induces neocortical folding, CDK6 loss selectively decreased oRGs and abolished neocortical folding. Remarkably, this function of CDK6 in oRG expansion did not require its kinase activity, was not shared by the highly similar CDK4 and CDK2, and was disrupted by the mutation causing microcephaly. Therefore, our results indicate that CDK6 is conserved to promote oRG expansion; that oRGs are necessary for neocortical folding; and that defects in oRG expansion may cause primary microcephaly.

Project description:Neural cell type diversity arises from both spatial and temporal patterning of neural stem cells. Although spatial patterning mechanisms have been extensively studied, temporal patterning mechanisms remain relatively unexplored. In this study, we addressed generation of diverse neural cell types through lineage progression of mouse cortical radial glia. The time series scRNA-seq and snATAC-seq of mouse cortical development revealed that radial glia temporally transitioned from neurogenesis to gliogenesis. During gliogenic stages, various cell types were generated simultaneously along multidirectional lineage trajectories. We established comprehensive molecular maps for cortical lineage commitment and cellular diversification. The transcriptome and epigenome of cortical radial glia exhibit temporal dynamics, as revealed by scRNA-seq and snATAC-seq. Lhx2, a transcription factor with temporal dynamic chromatin binding activities, was identified as a key regulator of the neurogenesis-to-gliogenesis transition. It maintains neurogenic competence by establishing the active epigenetic state of its target genes.

Project description:Zebrafish display widespread and pronounced adult neurogenesis, which is fundamental for their regeneration capability after central nervous system injury. However, the cellular identity and the biological properties of adult newborn neurons are elusive for most brain areas. Here, we used short-term lineage tracing of radial glia progeny to prospectively isolate newborn neurons from the her4.1+ radial glia lineage in the homeostatic adult forebrain. Transcriptome analysis of radial glia, newborn neurons and mature neurons using single cell sequencing identified distinct transcriptional profiles including novel markers for each population. Specifically, we detected 2 separate newborn neuron types, which showed diversity of cell fate commitment and location. Further analyses showed homology of these cell types to neurogenic cells in the mammalian brain, identified neurogenic commitment in proliferating radial glia and indicated that glutamatergic projection neurons fate are generated in the adult zebrafish telecephalon. Thus, we prospectively isolated adult newborn neurons from the adult zebrafish forebrain, identified markers for newborn and mature neurons in the adult brain, revealed intrinsic heterogeneity among adult newborn neurons and their homology to mammalian adult neurogenic cell types.
