- IDH-wildtype glioblastoma exhibits substantial biological heterogeneity despite current molecular classification. Although dynamic malignant cell states have been described, molecular features that position tumors along these states remain incompletely defined. We investigated whether ZIC3 expression identifies a transcriptional state associated with clinical outcome in IDH-wildtype glioblastoma. - Source: PubMed

Chung SuhmiLee SeungjooKim Jong HwiKim Jeong HoonHong Seok HoHong Chang-KiKim Young-HoonSong Sang WooChong SangjoonCho Young Hyun - Avian limbs have evolved precise digit lengths and shapes that are optimized for flight and locomotion, but the transcriptional regulators that regulate this architecture remain poorly defined. Although anteriorly biased Zic3 expression constrains digit outgrowth, whether other zinc finger of the cerebellum (Zic) factors-particularly Zic5-shape avian distal limb morphology remains unknown. Here, we define the spatiotemporal dynamics and developmental function of Zic5 expression in the chicken limb and evaluate its role in shaping avian limb and digit morphogenesis. Whole-mount in situ hybridization reveals that Zic5 shows a dynamic, stage-dependent shift from broad distal mesenchymal expression to digit-base-restricted domains in the chicken limb, consistent with a role in constraining digit elongation to shape fore-hind limb morphology. Overexpression of Zic5 in the chicken limb buds resulted in shortened digits and impaired limb ossification. These phenotypes were accompanied with altered expression of skeletal marker genes, including Sox9, Runx2, Col9a1, Col9a3, Ptch2 and Hhip, suggesting that elevated Zic5 expression is sufficient to impair skeletal maturation during limb development. Together, our results indicate that elevated Zic5 expression can impair limb skeletal growth and maturation, with effects on distal digit development that result in digit shortening or loss and suggest that Zic5 may contribute to the regulation of digit architecture during avian morphological diversification. - Source: PubMed

Tang YiningLi ShanshanBai ShibinShang SongyangJia ZiqiuZhang JunpengIrwin David MZhang ShuyiWang Zhe - Defects in ZIC2, a member of the Zinc Finger of the Cerebellum family of transcription factors (TFs), cause holoprosencephaly, a congenital brain malformation characterized by the defective cleavage of cerebral hemispheres. However, the gene regulatory network (GRN) controlled by ZIC2 during neural development remains largely unexplored. Here, we combined a mouse embryonic stem cell (mESC) in vitro differentiation model toward anterior neural progenitors with genome editing and genomic methods to elucidate the ZIC2 GRN. We found that ZIC2 is dispensable in mESC due to compensation by ZIC3. In contrast, during neural induction ZIC2 directly controls the expression of master regulators implicated in the patterning and morphogenesis of specific brain regions (e.g. midbrain and roof plate). Mechanistically, ZIC2 plays a dual role in neural differentiation: during pluripotency exit, ZIC2 binds de novo to distal enhancers and increases their chromatin accessibility; during neural induction, ZIC2 is essential for the activation of a subset of the previously primed enhancers, which in turn control the expression of neural patterning regulators and signalling pathways (i.e. WNT) that prevent premature neuronal differentiation. Therefore, by sequentially acting as a promiscuous priming TF and selective enhancer activator, ZIC2 canalizes pluripotent cells toward neural progenitors with rostro-dorsal identities. - Source: PubMed
Mariner-Faulí MaríaSánchez-Gaya VíctorRobert Sarah MalikaRespuela Patriciade la Cruz-Molina SaraLobato-Moreno SaraTrovato MatteoPrummel Karin DNoh Kyung-MinZaugg Judith BRada-Iglesias Álvaro - Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most common birth defect, and its pathogenesis is closely related to the abnormal establishment of the left-right (LR) bod axis, which highly depends on the ciliary function of the left-right organizer (LRO). This review systematically expounds the molecular pathways by which ciliary structural and functional abnormalities cause cardiac malformations by integrating multi-species model evidence. We believe that defects in multiple conserved genes (including , , , , , and microRNAs) disrupt ciliary assembly, motility, or signaling capacity, leading to the disappearance of the leftward nodal flow or mechanical sensing failure within the LRO. This further interrupts the left-specific calcium ion flicker and the activation of the Nodal-Pitx2 signaling cascade, ultimately resulting in failed cardiac looping and structural defects (such as ventricular septal defect and transposition of the great arteries). This review integrates transcriptional regulation, protein stability, miRNA-mediated fine regulation, and the planar cell polarity (PCP) pathway into a unified "cilia-LRO-heart" network and explores the molecular mechanisms of cilia in valve diseases and cardiac fibrosis. This not only deepens the understanding of the fundamental biological processes of heart development but also provides new molecular targets and theoretical frameworks for the genetic diagnosis and counseling of related congenital heart diseases. - Source: PubMed

Ma WenqiZhang ZhuofengMa YunMa Chengxu - Brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMECs) forming the blood-brain barrier (BBB) maintain brain homeostasis through specialized properties such as tight junctions, efflux transporters, and low levels of transcytosis. However, mechanisms governing induction of BBB properties during development remain poorly understood. We mined single-cell RNA sequencing datasets to identify transcription factors (TFs) critical for BBB development. Forty-four TFs were overexpressed in human pluripotent stem cell-derived endothelial cells cultured in the presence of the Wnt pathway agonist CHIR99021 to identify TFs capable of directing acquisition of BBB properties via forward programming. Individual TFs, including , , , , , , , , , and , induced distinct BBB-like gene expression patterns. Combinations of these TFs induced many canonical BBB genes, yielding ECs with reduced endocytosis, increased efflux activity, and improved barrier function. The resultant forward programmed CNS-like ECs (fpCECs) offer promising tools for modeling human BBB development and neurovascular disease and for drug screening. - Source: PubMed
