• EED inhibition of organoid development

  Transcriptomics and epigenomics after chemical inhibition of EED during early human brain organoid development. To investigate the role of H3K27me3 inhibition during neuroectoderm induction, we treated brain organoids with 3 concentrations of EED inhibitor (and control) during the transition of pluripotency to neuroepithelium. At the neuroepithelium stage, we profiled the organoids using scRNA-seq (transcriptome) and bulk Cut&Tag (H3K27me3, H3K27ac). Library preparation for scRNA-seq was carried out with the 10x genomics platform.

• Single-cell RNA sequencing reveals the mesangial identity and species diversity of glomerular cell transcriptomes

  Molecular characterization of the individual cell types in human kidney as well as model organisms are critical in defining organ function and understanding translational aspects of biomedical research. Previous studies have uncovered gene expression profiles of several kidney glomerular cell types, however, important cells, including mesangial (MCs) and glomerular parietal epithelial cells (PECs), were missing or incompletely described, and a systematic comparison between mouse and human kidney is lacking. To this end, we used Smart-seq2 to profile 4332 individual glomerulus-associated cells isolated from human living donor renal biopsies and mouse kidney. The analysis revealed genetic programs for all four glomerular cell types (podocytes, glomerular endothelial cells, MCs and PECs) as well as rare glomerulus-associated macula densa cells (MDCs). Importantly, we detected heterogeneity in glomerulus-associated Pdgfrb-expressing cells, including bona fide intraglomerular MCs with the functionally active phagocytic molecular machinery, as well as a unique mural cell type located in the central stalk region of the glomerulus tuft. Furthermore, we observed remarkable species differences in the individual gene expression profiles of defined glomerular cell types that highlight translational challenges in the field and provide a guide to design translational studies.

• M116 scRNA-seq

  scRNA-seq was performed using Chromium Next GEM Single Cell 3’ Kit v3.1 (10X Genomics) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Briefly, M116's PBMCs were thawed and quantified in order to calculate the number of cells to be loaded. Then, barcoded Single Cell 3ʹ Gel Beads, a master mix containing PBMCs, and Partitioning Oil were combined onto the Chromium Next GEM Chip G to generate Gel Beads-In-Emulsion (GEMs), where polyadenylated mRNAs were reverse transcribed. This way, all generated cDNAs from the same cell shared a common 10X Barcode. Following the reverse transcription, GEMs were broken and cDNAs were amplified and cleaned up with SPRIselect beads (Beckman Coulter®). Next, a portion of these cDNAs were enzymatically fragmented and subjected to adaptor ligation before using them as a PCR template for the incorporation of i5/i7 indexes. Finally, libraries were purified with SPRIselect beads, quantified and quality checked by using the 2200 TapeStation (Agilent®), and subjected to paired-end 150-bp sequencing (Novaseq systems, Illumina®) following standard practices at external facilities (Novogene®). Files types included in this dataset are raw Fastq files.

• DLK1 Distinguishes Subsets of NF1-Associated Malignant Peripheral Nerve Sheath Tumors with Divergent Molecular Signatures

  Study Design and Aims We aimed to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying the malignant transformation of pre-existing neurofibromas (PNST) to malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNST) in individuals with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). Our primary focus was on the role of DLK1 in this transformation process and its potential as a biomarker for diagnosis, risk assessment, and therapeutic stratification. Population InformationThis study consisted of a case set of peripheral nerve sheath tumor specimens, including plexiform neurofibromas, atypical neurofibromas, and MPNSTs, acquired under IRB approval at our institution. The majority of the subjects had neurofibromatosis type 1. Principal Findings DLK1 Overexpression: The study found that DLK1 is significantly increased in MPNST compared to non-malignant neurofibromas.Early Marker: DLK1 overexpression may precede histological changes indicative of malignancy.Serum Levels: Higher serum levels of DLK1 were observed in both mice and humans with MPNST.Molecular Stratification: Divergent levels of DLK1 expression identified distinct MPNST subsets with unique molecular characteristics and potential therapeutic targets.Clinical Implications: Overexpression of DLK1 was associated with the reactivation of embryonic signatures, an immunosuppressive microenvironment, and poorer overall survival in NF1-MPNST patients. Data Availability Whole exome sequencing, bulk RNA sequencing, and single-cell RNA sequencing data from this study will be made available through the database of Genotypes and Phenotypes (dbGaP) to support further research and validation studies.

• RBMX functional retrocopy safeguards brain development

  Retrotransposition has generated thousands of intronless gene copies in mammalian genomes, yet their contribution to brain development and evolution remains largely unexplored. We investigated the role for RBMX retrocopy in shaping neurodevelopment and modulating disease. First, we reported 8 distinct pathogenic variants in RBMX, an X-linked splicing regulator, in 11 males presenting with intellectual disability, microcephaly, and cortical malformations. Then, we combined transcriptomic profiling, protein–protein and protein–RNA interaction studies both in human cellular models and mouse embryonic cortices to assess the functional redundancy between RBMX and its retrocopy RBMXL1. Finally, we use mouse genetics to dissect RBMX function and its compensation by RBMXL1 in corticogenesis. We show that RBMX pathogenic variants disrupt cortical development through both loss- and gain-of-function mechanisms. Surprisingly, despite severe phenotypes in humans, Rbmx-deficient mice display only mild cortical abnormalities, a discrepancy likely due to compensation by Rbmxl1, a retrocopy that arose independently in mice and humans. We demonstrate that RBMX and RBMXL1 share protein and RNA partners and act redundantly in brain development, with RBMXL1 buffering the impact of RBMX deficiency. Together, these findings establish that RBMXL1 functions as a functional paralog of RBMX safeguarding neurodevelopment by buffering deleterious variation. More broadly, these results identify retrocopies as active contributors to neurodevelopmental robustness and suggest that functional retrocopies may have facilitated the evolutionary diversification of the mammalian brain.

• Coding and small non-coding transcriptional landscape of tuberous sclerosis complex cortical tubers: implications for pathophysiology and treatment

  Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC) is a rare genetic disorder that results from a mutation in the TSC1 or TSC2 genes leading to constitutive activation of the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). TSC is associated with autism, intellectual disability and severe epilepsy. Cortical tubers are believed to represent the neuropathological substrates of these disabling manifestations in TSC. In the presented study we used high-throughput RNA sequencing in combination with systems-based computational approaches to investigate the complexity of the TSC molecular network. Overall we detected 438 differentially expressed genes and 991 differentially expressed small non-coding RNAs in cortical tubers compared to autopsy control brain tissue. We observed increased expression of genes associated with inflammatory, innate and adaptive immune responses. In contrast, we observed a down-regulation of genes associated with neurogenesis and glutamate receptor signaling. MicroRNAs represented the largest class of over-expressed small non-coding RNA species in tubers. In particular, our analysis revealed that the miR-34 family (including miR-34a, miR-34b and miR-34c) was significantly over-expressed. Functional studies demonstrated the ability of miR-34b to modulate neurite outgrowth in mouse primary hippocampal neuronal cultures. This study provides new insights into the TSC transcriptomic network along with the identification of potential new treatment targets.

• TGF-β attenuates tumour response to PD-L1 blockade by contributing to exclusion of T cells.

  We examined tumours from a large cohort of patients with metastatic urothelial bladder cancer (mUC) treated with an anti–PD-L1 agent (atezolizumab) and identified major determinants of clinical response and immune escape. Whole transcriptome profiles were generated for 368 patients using TruSeq RNA Access technology (Illumina). Somatic mutations were determined via whole exome sequencing for a subset of these patients. - Response was associated with CD8+ T effector cell phenotype and, to an even greater extent, high neoantigen or tumour mutation burden (TMB). On the other hand, lack of response was associated with a transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) signature, particularly in patients with CD8+ T cells preferentially residing in collagen-rich matrix surrounding tumours. Integration of these three independent biological features provided the best basis for understanding outcome in this setting. -
