Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 2. Both IGSF3 mRNA and protein are expressed in the neural crest cells. (A–F) Single cell RNA sequencing analysis at E8.5 and E9.5 represented as t-SNE plots reveals the neural crest (NC) and neural tube (NT) cell clusters defined by Sox10 (B,E) and Sox2 (C,F) expression, respectively. The subclusters are assigned according to the annotations from the original analysis of the source data23. Igsf3 is expression is restricted to the neural crest cells at E8.5 (A). At E9.5, Igsf3 is expressed predominantly by the delaminating and migrating neural crest which is identified by Sox10 with some expression in the neural tube cells (F). (G,H) Serial sections of E9.5 embryo were stained using the anti-IGSF3 and anti-SOX10 antibodies (red color). IGSF3 expression (G) is detected in the Sox10-positive (H) neural crest cells as indicated by arrows pointing to the neural crest cells that are newly migrating out of the dorsal neural tube on both sides.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 3. Single-cell RNAseq analysis shows that Igsf3 is the only IGSF member that is expressed by the neural crest cells. (A) Large panel in the left upper corner displays the t-SNE embedding showing the cell clusters of E8.5 Wnt1-Cre; R26Tomatoembryo. The image is adopted from the original analysis and annotations of the source data, of which our analysis is based on23. The early neural crest comprises of three spatially distinct clusters including a Hox-negative (–) corresponding to the anterior cranial neural crest, Hoxb2- positive ( +) corresponding to the mandibular level, and HoxD3-positive ( +) corresponding to the post-otic (including cardiac and vagal) streams of the neural crest23. Single cell RNA sequence analysis reveals the expression of different Igsf members in the distinct cell clusters defined respectively by Sox10 (NC cells) and Sox2 expression (NT cells). Igsf3 is the only family member expressed solely by the neural crest cells at E8.5. The other IGSF members are expressed about equally by both cell clusters or preferentially by the neural tube cell cluster. Expression of Igsf5 and Igsf23 was not detected at E8.5. (B) Large panel in the left upper corner displays the t-SNE embedding showing the cell clusters of mouse E9.5 Wnt1Cre/R26RTomato embryo and reflects the spatiotemporal properties of neural crest (NC) development, as adopted from the original analysis of the source data23. These neural crest cell clusters are classified into the following major subpopulations such as pre-EMT, delaminating and migrating neural crest, sensory neurons, autonomic neurons, and mesenchyme23. Single cell RNA sequence analysis at E9.5 represented as t-SNE plot reveals the expression of various IgSF members in different neural tube (NT) and neural crest (NC) cell clusters defined by Sox10 and Sox2 expression, respectively. Igsf3 is expressed in the NC and its derivative cell clusters also at this stage. Igsf8 and Igsf9 are predominantly expressed in the NT population, while Igsf10 and Igsf9b are detected about equally in the NC and NT cells, and Igsf11 shows a slight preferential expression in the NC cell cluster. (C) At E10.5, the choroid plexus and NC cells specifically express Igsf3, but other Igsf members are not co-expressed in these cells.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Deletion in the exon 3 of Igsf3 gene leads near to complete loss of the IGSF3 protein. The CRISPR-Cas9 mediated genome engineering targeted exon 3 of the Igsf3 gene. ( A ) Schematic presentation of the Igsf3 inactivation strategy. Deleted nucleotides span across the sgRNA binding sites. The red star at the end of the nucleotide sequence indicates the pre-mature stop codon. ( B ) Gene analysis reveals a 146-nucleotide deletion in the KO allele, which resulted in a premature stop codon right after the signal peptide of Igsf3 . PAM protospacer adjacent motif. ( C , D ) The effect of Igsf3 deletion at the mRNA level was evaluated by using qPCR of the P2.5 cerebrum ( C ) and intestine ( D ). In heterozygous tissues, no significant differences in the Igsf3 levels were detected at the mRNA level whereas no Igsf3 transcript was detected in the KO tissue samples. ( E ) HEK293FT cells were transfected with plasmid encoding the murine Igsf3 gene. Cell extracts were prepared 48 h post-transfection and IGSF3 expression was analyzed using Western blot. WT and mock-transfected HEK293FT were used as controls. Arrow points to the band with correct molecular weight. (F ) IGSF3 gene deletion was validated at the protein level from P2.5 cerebrum extracts by using Western blot analysis. The KO showed a nearly complete loss of protein expression while reduced expression was detected in the heterozygous brain samples. ( G ) The IGSF3 protein expression of the cerebrum samples was quantified by normalizing it to the house keeping protein GAPDH. ( H – M ) The successful loss of the Igsf3 in the KO animals was further validated by immunostaining the myenteric plexus of the intestinal wall on whole mount samples from P12.5 mice using anti-NCAM1 ( H , K ) and anti-IGSF3 ( I , L ) antibodies (N = 3 for each genotype). No IGSF3 signal was detected in the KO intestines ( L , M ) while expression was clearly visible in the WT ( I , J ) and it colocalized with the NCAM1. Scale bars: ( G – L )100 µm. NCAM levels in ( H ) and ( K ) have been enhanced to visualize the neuronal network since NCAM1 expression is reduced in the KO compared to the WT.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Igsf3 KO results in downregulation of neuronal and smooth muscle markers and disorganized innervation of the small intestinal villi. ( A ) Confocal images of the WT P12.5 small intestinal villi after wholemount staining using antibodies against IGSF3 and NCAM1. IGSF3 (green) colocalizes with NCAM1 (red), a neuronal marker, in the neurons of the small intestinal villi (Merged). ( B ) Representative images of the intestinal villi from P12.5 WT (upper panels) and Igsf3 KO (lower panels) pups stained with antibodies against the neuron marker Tuj1 (green) and smooth muscle marker αSMA (red) on whole mount samples. ( C , D ) Representative images of the intestine from P12.5 WT ( C ) and Igsf3 KO ( D ) pups stained with antibodies against the E-cadherin (Ecad, green) and NCAM1 (red) on whole mount samples. Cell nuclei are visualized by Hoechst (blue). While no difference was seen in the E-cadherin expression between the WT and KO intestine, NCAM1 expression was substantially reduced in the KO compared to the WT. ( E ) Western blot analysis of P2.5 cerebrum extracts shows reduced expression of NCAM1 in KO samples also in the brain. Housekeeping protein GAPDH was used as a loading control. ( F – K ) Quantification from P12.5 intestinal immunostained images. ( F ) Expression of both Tuj1 and ( G ) αSMA was significantly reduced. ( H ) The αSMA:Tuj1 ratio was significantly increased in the KO villi as compared to WTs. ( I ) Counts of nerves per villus was significantly decreased in the KO villi as compared to the WT intestine, ( J ) but no difference was observed in the muscle fiber counts. ( K ) The colocalization of αSMA-Tuj1 was reduced in the KO villi as compared to WT intestines. Scale bars: ( A – D ) 100 µm.
