项目摘要

Project Abstract Our sense of balance relies on vestibular hair cells, which detect head movements. Mammals have type I and type II vestibular hair cells, which have distinct morphological, molecular, and physiological properties and unique forms of afferent innervation. Only type II hair cells are replaced in adult mammals under normal conditions and after damage. We do not understand the specific functions of type I and II hair cells nor the types of information they encode and send to the brain via the vestibular nerve. Furthermore, little is known about the mechanisms controlling the production and maintenance of each hair cell type. This knowledge is critical for developing effective therapies to restore vestibular function, through cell regeneration, transplantation, or nerve stimulation (vestibular implants). In mature mammals, the transcription factor Sox2 is expressed in type II hair cells but not in type I hair cells. We recently made the exciting discovery that conditional deletion of Sox2 from type II hair cells of adult mice causes them to acquire morphological and molecular features of type I hair cells and to establish calyx innervation typical of type I hair cells. This transdifferentiation resulted in a significantly higher proportion of type I:II hair cells in all zones of the vestibular epithelia. In this proposal, a team of investigators with distinct but highly connected areas of expertise will exploit our new-found ability to induce vestibular hair cell transdifferentiation in mature mammals to advance our understanding of how type I and II hair cells acquire and maintain their unique properties and how each hair cell type contributes to vestibular function. In Aim 1, we will further test if Sox2 loss-of-function in adult type II hair cells causes them to convert into type I hair cells, and we will determine if Sox2 gain-of-function in adult type I hair cells induces their transdifferentiation to type II hair cells. Our ability to alter proportions of type I and II hair cells in adult mice provides an opportunity to address long-standing questions regarding the functional differences between these cell types. In Aim 2, we will assess the functional contributions of each hair cell type to afferent nerve activity and to animal behavior by altering the type I:II ratio via Sox2 conditional knock-out or ectopic expression. The establishment of type I and II specificity relies on a precise pattern of gene expression reflected in the unique chromatin state of each cell type. In Aim 3, we will analyze the state of chromatin of normal type I versus type II hair cells and study how these chromatin states change during transdifferentiation after Sox2 manipulation in adulthood. !

项目摘要我们的平衡感依赖于前庭毛细胞，它检测头部的运动。哺乳动物有 I型和II型前庭毛细胞，具有不同的形态，分子和生理传入神经支配的性质和独特形式。只有II型毛细胞在成年哺乳动物中被替换，正常情况和损坏后。我们不了解I型和II型毛细胞的具体功能，它们编码并通过前庭神经发送到大脑的信息类型。此外，关于控制每种毛细胞类型的产生和维持的机制。这种知识是对于开发有效的治疗方法来恢复前庭功能至关重要，通过细胞再生，移植或神经刺激（前庭植入物）。在成熟的哺乳动物中，转录因子Sox 2在II型毛细胞中表达，但在I型毛细胞中不表达细胞我们最近取得了令人兴奋的发现，从成人II型毛细胞中条件性缺失Sox 2，小鼠使它们获得I型毛细胞的形态和分子特征， I型毛细胞的典型神经支配。这种转分化导致了显著更高比例的 I：II型毛细胞分布于前庭上皮的各个区域。在这项提议中，一个具有不同但高度相关的专业领域的调查小组将利用我们新发现的诱导成熟哺乳动物前庭毛细胞转分化的能力，了解I型和II型毛细胞如何获得和保持其独特的特性，以及每根头发如何细胞类型有助于前庭功能。在目标1中，我们将进一步测试成人II型中Sox 2是否功能丧失毛细胞使它们转化为I型毛细胞，我们将确定Sox 2功能获得性在成人中是否 I型毛细胞诱导其转分化为II型毛细胞。我们能够改变I型和II型的比例， II毛细胞在成年小鼠提供了一个机会，以解决长期存在的问题，有关的功能这些细胞类型之间的差异。在目标2中，我们将评估每种毛细胞类型的功能贡献通过Sox 2条件性敲除改变I型：II型比率来影响传入神经活动和动物行为，异位表达I型和II型特异性的建立依赖于基因表达的精确模式反映在每种细胞类型的独特染色质状态中。在目标3中，我们将分析正常的I型和II型毛细胞，并研究这些染色质状态在转分化过程中如何变化 Sox 2基因操纵后， !
