项目摘要
PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT
Recent reports estimate that 1 out of every 6 children in the United States meet the diagnostic criteria for
neurodevelopmental disorders such as autism spectrum disorders (ASD), attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder
(ADHD), and intellectual disability (ID). The prevalence of ASDs, which are characterized by persistent social
impairments, language deficits, and repetitive behaviors, has increased by 120% over the past 15 years, a
problem further exacerbated by the fact that the disease mechanisms underlying ASDs are largely unknown and
no targeted therapeutic interventions exist. Recent progress in human genome sequencing has begun to
illuminate pathways to disease through the identification of several genetic risk factors, the most common of
which is the deletion of 16p11.2 locus (16p11.2del). Initial studies have nominated specific genes in the 16p11.2
locus in neuronal dysfunction, though these findings are built on mouse and zebrafish models rather than human
neural cell types. This proposal aims to elucidate the disease mechanisms underlying 16p11.2del phenotypes
using in vitro induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived human brain cells. In Aim 1 (K99), human iPSC-
derived neural progenitor cells and neurons generated using novel protocols will be compared to human fetal
brain tissue using single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) techniques to validate these in vitro cellular models
for future studies. Aim 2 of this proposal (K99) will employ an innovative “population-in-a-dish” strategy in which
stem cell lines from many different neurotypical and 16p11.2del patients will be pooled into one culture flask to
interrogate phenotypic differences. Aim 3 (R00) will leverage these scRNA-seq techniques to decipher the role
of 16p11.2 genes in specific pathways important for neurodevelopment. The successful completion of these aims
could lead to the identification of genetic targets for therapeutic intervention, while also dramatically changing
the way the field conducts in vitro modeling of human brain disorders. These experiments will provide new
training for the principal investigator (PI) of this proposal in scRNA-seq and bioinformatics methods that will serve
as the foundation of an independent research laboratory that will use stem cell-derived neural cells and large
transcriptome datasets, combined with animal models, to elucidate the cellular and molecular mechanisms
governing neurodevelopmental disorders. This work will be completed at the Broad Institute and Harvard
University, where the opportunities for technical and intellectual growth are innumerable. The PI will attend
regular meetings with mentors and collaborators to receive feedback on experimental design and career
decisions. The PI will attend grant writing and project management courses at Harvard, while also improving his
communication skills by presenting data at international scientific conferences. As a whole, this career
development plan will help the PI establish his own group at a research-oriented academic institution and
become a leader in the field of neurodevelopmental disease modeling.
项目摘要/摘要
最近的报告估计,美国每6个儿童中有1个符合诊断标准
神经发育障碍,例如自闭症谱系障碍(ASD),注意力缺陷多动障碍
(ADHD)和肠道残疾(ID)。 ASD的普遍性,其特征是持续的社会
在过去15年中,障碍,语言定义和重复行为增加了120%,
问题进一步加剧了ASD的疾病机制在很大程度上未知,并且
不存在针对性的治疗干预措施。人类基因组测序的最新进展已经开始
通过鉴定几种遗传危险因素来照亮疾病的途径,这是最常见的
这是16p11.2基因座(16p11.2del)的删除。最初的研究提名了16p11.2中的特定基因
神经元功能障碍中的基因座,尽管这些发现建立在鼠标和斑马鱼模型上,而不是人类
神经细胞类型。该提案旨在阐明16p11.2del表型的疾病机制
使用体外诱导的多能干细胞(IPSC)衍生的人脑细胞。在AIM 1(K99)中,人IPSC-
将使用新方案产生的衍生神经元祖细胞和神经元与人类胎儿进行比较
使用单细胞RNA测序(SCRNA-SEQ)技术来验证这些体外细胞模型的脑组织
用于未来的研究。该提案的目标2(K99)将采用创新的“人口”策略,在其中
来自许多不同神经型和16P11.2DEL患者的干细胞系将被合并为一个培养瓶
询问表型差异。 AIM 3(R00)将利用这些SCRNA-SEQ技术来破译角色
在特定途径中对神经发育重要的特定途径中的16p11.2基因。这些目标的成功完成
可能导致鉴定热干预的遗传靶标,同时也发生了巨大变化
该领域对人脑疾病进行体外建模的方式。这些实验将提供新的
在SCRNA-SEQ和生物信息学方法中,对本提案的首席研究员(PI)培训
作为将使用干细胞衍生的神经细胞和大型研究实验室的基础
转录组数据集与动物模型相结合,以阐明细胞和分子机制
管理神经发育障碍。这项工作将在Broad Institute和Harvard完成
大学,技术和智力增长的机会是无数的。 PI将参加
与导师和合作者的定期会议,以接收有关实验设计和职业的反馈
决定。 PI将参加哈佛大学的赠款写作和项目管理课程,同时也改善了他的
通过在国际科学会议上介绍数据来沟通技巧。总体而言,这个职业
发展计划将帮助PI在面向研究的学术机构中建立自己的小组,并
成为神经发育疾病建模领域的领导者。
