[bulk RNA Seq]", "GSE240238", "Transcriptome Analysis", "Background: V0v spinal interneurons are highly conserved  glutamatergic  commissural neurons that function in locomotor circuits. We have previously shown that Evx1 and Evx2 are required to specify the neurotransmitter phenotype of these cells. However  we still know very little about the gene regulatory networks that act downstream of these transcription factors in V0v cells. Methods: To identify candidate members of V0v gene regulatory networks  we FAC sorted WT and evx1;evx2 double mutant zebrafish V0v spinal interneurons and expression profiled them using microarrays and scRNA seq. We also used in situ hybridization to compare expression of a subset of candidate genes in evx1;evx2 mutants and wild type siblings.  Results: Our data reveal two molecularly distinct subtypes of V0v spinal interneurons at 48 h and suggest that  by this stage of development  evx1;evx2 double mutant cells transfate into either inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Our results also identify 25 transcriptional regulator genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons  plus a further 11 transcriptional regulator genes that are repressed in V0v interneurons by Evx1/2. Two of the latter genes are hmx2 and hmx3a. Intriguingly  we show that Hmx2/3a  repress dI2 interneuronal expression of skor1a and nefma  two genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons. This suggests that Evx1/2 might regulate skor1a and nefma expression in V0v interneurons by repressing Hmx2/3a expression. Conclusions: This study identifies two molecularly distinct subsets of V0v spinal interneurons  as well as multiple transcriptional regulators that are strong candidates for acting downstream of Evx1/2 to specify the essential functional characteristics of V0v interneurons. Our data further suggest that in the absence of both Evx1 and Evx2  V0v spinal interneurons initially change their neurotransmitter phenotypes from excitatory to inhibitory and then  later  start to express markers of distinct types of inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Taken together  our findings significantly increase our knowledge of V0v spinal development and move us closer towards the essential goal of identifying the complete gene regulatory networks that specify this crucial cell type. Overall design: Ten samples were analysed in total  all at 27 hpf. Five biological repicates were performed for V1 and dI2 spinal interneurons from uninjected wild type control embryos in the Tghmx CNEIII:cfos:GAL4 VP16 UAS:EGFPSU41 background.

[bulk RNA Seq]", "GSE240238", "Transcriptome Analysis", "Background: V0v spinal interneurons are highly conserved  glutamatergic  commissural neurons that function in locomotor circuits. We have previously shown that Evx1 and Evx2 are required to specify the neurotransmitter phenotype of these cells. However  we still know very little about the gene regulatory networks that act downstream of these transcription factors in V0v cells. Methods: To identify candidate members of V0v gene regulatory networks  we FAC sorted WT and evx1;evx2 double mutant zebrafish V0v spinal interneurons and expression profiled them using microarrays and scRNA seq. We also used in situ hybridization to compare expression of a subset of candidate genes in evx1;evx2 mutants and wild type siblings.  Results: Our data reveal two molecularly distinct subtypes of V0v spinal interneurons at 48 h and suggest that  by this stage of development  evx1;evx2 double mutant cells transfate into either inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Our results also identify 25 transcriptional regulator genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons  plus a further 11 transcriptional regulator genes that are repressed in V0v interneurons by Evx1/2. Two of the latter genes are hmx2 and hmx3a. Intriguingly  we show that Hmx2/3a  repress dI2 interneuronal expression of skor1a and nefma  two genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons. This suggests that Evx1/2 might regulate skor1a and nefma expression in V0v interneurons by repressing Hmx2/3a expression. Conclusions: This study identifies two molecularly distinct subsets of V0v spinal interneurons  as well as multiple transcriptional regulators that are strong candidates for acting downstream of Evx1/2 to specify the essential functional characteristics of V0v interneurons. Our data further suggest that in the absence of both Evx1 and Evx2  V0v spinal interneurons initially change their neurotransmitter phenotypes from excitatory to inhibitory and then  later  start to express markers of distinct types of inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Taken together  our findings significantly increase our knowledge of V0v spinal development and move us closer towards the essential goal of identifying the complete gene regulatory networks that specify this crucial cell type.

We have previously shown that Evx1 and Evx2 are required to specify the neurotransmitter phenotype of these cells. However  we still know very little about the gene regulatory networks that act downstream of these transcription factors in V0v cells. Methods: To identify candidate members of V0v gene regulatory networks  we FAC sorted WT and evx1;evx2 double mutant zebrafish V0v spinal interneurons and expression profiled them using microarrays and scRNA seq. We also used in situ hybridization to compare expression of a subset of candidate genes in evx1;evx2 mutants and wild type siblings.  Results: Our data reveal two molecularly distinct subtypes of V0v spinal interneurons at 48 h and suggest that  by this stage of development  evx1;evx2 double mutant cells transfate into either inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Our results also identify 25 transcriptional regulator genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons  plus a further 11 transcriptional regulator genes that are repressed in V0v interneurons by Evx1/2. Two of the latter genes are hmx2 and hmx3a. Intriguingly  we show that Hmx2/3a  repress dI2 interneuronal expression of skor1a and nefma  two genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons. This suggests that Evx1/2 might regulate skor1a and nefma expression in V0v interneurons by repressing Hmx2/3a expression. Conclusions: This study identifies two molecularly distinct subsets of V0v spinal interneurons  as well as multiple transcriptional regulators that are strong candidates for acting downstream of Evx1/2 to specify the essential functional characteristics of V0v interneurons. Our data further suggest that in the absence of both Evx1 and Evx2  V0v spinal interneurons initially change their neurotransmitter phenotypes from excitatory to inhibitory and then  later  start to express markers of distinct types of inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Taken together  our findings significantly increase our knowledge of V0v spinal development and move us closer towards the essential goal of identifying the complete gene regulatory networks that specify this crucial cell type.

We have previously shown that Evx1 and Evx2 are required to specify the neurotransmitter phenotype of these cells. However  we still know very little about the gene regulatory networks that act downstream of these transcription factors in V0v cells. Methods: To identify candidate members of V0v gene regulatory networks  we FAC sorted WT and evx1;evx2 double mutant zebrafish V0v spinal interneurons and expression profiled them using microarrays and scRNA seq. We also used in situ hybridization to compare expression of a subset of candidate genes in evx1;evx2 mutants and wild type siblings.  Results: Our data reveal two molecularly distinct subtypes of V0v spinal interneurons at 48 h and suggest that  by this stage of development  evx1;evx2 double mutant cells transfate into either inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Our results also identify 25 transcriptional regulator genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons  plus a further 11 transcriptional regulator genes that are repressed in V0v interneurons by Evx1/2. Two of the latter genes are hmx2 and hmx3a. Intriguingly  we show that Hmx2/3a  repress dI2 interneuronal expression of skor1a and nefma  two genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons. This suggests that Evx1/2 might regulate skor1a and nefma expression in V0v interneurons by repressing Hmx2/3a expression. Conclusions: This study identifies two molecularly distinct subsets of V0v spinal interneurons  as well as multiple transcriptional regulators that are strong candidates for acting downstream of Evx1/2 to specify the essential functional characteristics of V0v interneurons. Our data further suggest that in the absence of both Evx1 and Evx2  V0v spinal interneurons initially change their neurotransmitter phenotypes from excitatory to inhibitory and then  later  start to express markers of distinct types of inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Taken together  our findings significantly increase our knowledge of V0v spinal development and move us closer towards the essential goal of identifying the complete gene regulatory networks that specify this crucial cell type.

We have previously shown that Evx1 and Evx2 are required to specify the neurotransmitter phenotype of these cells. However  we still know very little about the gene regulatory networks that act downstream of these transcription factors in V0v cells. Methods: To identify candidate members of V0v gene regulatory networks  we FAC sorted WT and evx1;evx2 double mutant zebrafish V0v spinal interneurons and expression profiled them using microarrays and scRNA seq. We also used in situ hybridization to compare expression of a subset of candidate genes in evx1;evx2 mutants and wild type siblings.  Results: Our data reveal two molecularly distinct subtypes of V0v spinal interneurons at 48 h and suggest that  by this stage of development  evx1;evx2 double mutant cells transfate into either inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Our results also identify 25 transcriptional regulator genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons  plus a further 11 transcriptional regulator genes that are repressed in V0v interneurons by Evx1/2. Two of the latter genes are hmx2 and hmx3a. Intriguingly  we show that Hmx2/3a  repress dI2 interneuronal expression of skor1a and nefma  two genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons. This suggests that Evx1/2 might regulate skor1a and nefma expression in V0v interneurons by repressing Hmx2/3a expression. Conclusions: This study identifies two molecularly distinct subsets of V0v spinal interneurons  as well as multiple transcriptional regulators that are strong candidates for acting downstream of Evx1/2 to specify the essential functional characteristics of V0v interneurons. Our data further suggest that in the absence of both Evx1 and Evx2  V0v spinal interneurons initially change their neurotransmitter phenotypes from excitatory to inhibitory and then  later  start to express markers of distinct types of inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Taken together  our findings significantly increase our knowledge of V0v spinal development and move us closer towards the essential goal of identifying the complete gene regulatory networks that specify this crucial cell type.

We have previously shown that Evx1 and Evx2 are required to specify the neurotransmitter phenotype of these cells. However  we still know very little about the gene regulatory networks that act downstream of these transcription factors in V0v cells. Methods: To identify candidate members of V0v gene regulatory networks  we FAC sorted WT and evx1;evx2 double mutant zebrafish V0v spinal interneurons and expression profiled them using microarrays and scRNA seq. We also used in situ hybridization to compare expression of a subset of candidate genes in evx1;evx2 mutants and wild type siblings.  Results: Our data reveal two molecularly distinct subtypes of V0v spinal interneurons at 48 h and suggest that  by this stage of development  evx1;evx2 double mutant cells transfate into either inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Our results also identify 25 transcriptional regulator genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons  plus a further 11 transcriptional regulator genes that are repressed in V0v interneurons by Evx1/2. Two of the latter genes are hmx2 and hmx3a. Intriguingly  we show that Hmx2/3a  repress dI2 interneuronal expression of skor1a and nefma  two genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons. This suggests that Evx1/2 might regulate skor1a and nefma expression in V0v interneurons by repressing Hmx2/3a expression.

Ice cold samples were filtered through 35 \u00b5m mesh strainers in to 5 ml round bottomed polystyrene tubes Corning Falcon  352235. All FAC sorting and collection steps were performed at +4oC  using a 100 \u00b5m nozzle and 20 psi sort pressure. Successive doublet exclusion gates forward scatter height x forward scatter width  followed by side scatter height x side scatter width were used to finesse capture of real single cells. Accurate live/dead filtering was performed by selecting for DAPI negative sick cells are DAPI permeant and excluded and Draq 5 positive only healthy nuclei are Draq 5 permeant cells. Cells were sorted directly in to sterile 1.5 ml microcentrifuge tubes containing 100 \u00b5l of Buffer RLT Qiagen RNeasy Micro Kit  74004 plus 143 mM\uf020\u03b2 mercaptoethanol. Sorted cells were stored at  80oC prior to RNA extraction.  Frozen FAC sorted cell lysates were removed from storage at  80oC and thawed in a 37oC waterbath  before transferring to sterile microcentrifuge tubes. If necessary  sample volumes were completed to 250 \u00b5l with UltraPure DNase/RNase Free distilled water ThermoFisher Scientific  10977035. 750 \u00b5l TRIzol LS Reagent ThermoFisher Scientific  10296028 was added to each 250 \u00b5l sample  before homogenising by gently pipetting up and down ten times with a sterile p1000 pipette tip. Samples were immediately transferred to Phasemaker tubes which had been pre centrifuged as per the manufacturer's instructions ThermoFisher Scientific  A33248  before incubating for 5 minutes at room temperature. 200 \u00b5l chloroform was added to each sample. The tubes were then shaken vigorously for 15 seconds and incubated for a further 5 minutes at room temperature. The samples were then centrifuged for 5 minutes at 16 000 x g at 4oC  before transferring the RNA containing upper aqueous phase to a sterile centrifuge tube and adding one volume of 70% RNase free ethanol. Samples were inverted to mix thoroughly  and the supernatant immediately loaded to an RNEasy MinElute column from the RNeasy Micro Kit  Qiagen  74004  before centrifuging for 15 seconds at 10 000 rpm. Wash steps with RW1 buffer  RPE buffer and 80% RNase free ethanol was performed as per the RNeasy Micro Kit instructions. Samples were eluted in 14 \u00b5l RNase free water. RNA integrity was assessed with the Agilent RNA 6000 Pico chip Agilent  5067 1513 on an Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer. Only samples with RNA integrity RIN values >9 were used for library preparation.

We have previously shown that Evx1 and Evx2 are required to specify the neurotransmitter phenotype of these cells. However  we still know very little about the gene regulatory networks that act downstream of these transcription factors in V0v cells. Methods: To identify candidate members of V0v gene regulatory networks  we FAC sorted WT and evx1;evx2 double mutant zebrafish V0v spinal interneurons and expression profiled them using microarrays and scRNA seq. We also used in situ hybridization to compare expression of a subset of candidate genes in evx1;evx2 mutants and wild type siblings.  Results: Our data reveal two molecularly distinct subtypes of V0v spinal interneurons at 48 h and suggest that  by this stage of development  evx1;evx2 double mutant cells transfate into either inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Our results also identify 25 transcriptional regulator genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons  plus a further 11 transcriptional regulator genes that are repressed in V0v interneurons by Evx1/2. Two of the latter genes are hmx2 and hmx3a. Intriguingly  we show that Hmx2/3a  repress dI2 interneuronal expression of skor1a and nefma  two genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons. This suggests that Evx1/2 might regulate skor1a and nefma expression in V0v interneurons by repressing Hmx2/3a expression. Conclusions: This study identifies two molecularly distinct subsets of V0v spinal interneurons  as well as multiple transcriptional regulators that are strong candidates for acting downstream of Evx1/2 to specify the essential functional characteristics of V0v interneurons. Our data further suggest that in the absence of both Evx1 and Evx2  V0v spinal interneurons initially change their neurotransmitter phenotypes from excitatory to inhibitory and then  later  start to express markers of distinct types of inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Taken together  our findings significantly increase our knowledge of V0v spinal development and move us closer towards the essential goal of identifying the complete gene regulatory networks that specify this crucial cell type.

[bulk RNA Seq]", "GSE240238", "Transcriptome Analysis", "Background: V0v spinal interneurons are highly conserved  glutamatergic  commissural neurons that function in locomotor circuits. We have previously shown that Evx1 and Evx2 are required to specify the neurotransmitter phenotype of these cells. However  we still know very little about the gene regulatory networks that act downstream of these transcription factors in V0v cells. Methods: To identify candidate members of V0v gene regulatory networks  we FAC sorted WT and evx1;evx2 double mutant zebrafish V0v spinal interneurons and expression profiled them using microarrays and scRNA seq. We also used in situ hybridization to compare expression of a subset of candidate genes in evx1;evx2 mutants and wild type siblings.  Results: Our data reveal two molecularly distinct subtypes of V0v spinal interneurons at 48 h and suggest that  by this stage of development  evx1;evx2 double mutant cells transfate into either inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Our results also identify 25 transcriptional regulator genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons  plus a further 11 transcriptional regulator genes that are repressed in V0v interneurons by Evx1/2. Two of the latter genes are hmx2 and hmx3a. Intriguingly  we show that Hmx2/3a  repress dI2 interneuronal expression of skor1a and nefma  two genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons. This suggests that Evx1/2 might regulate skor1a and nefma expression in V0v interneurons by repressing Hmx2/3a expression. Conclusions: This study identifies two molecularly distinct subsets of V0v spinal interneurons  as well as multiple transcriptional regulators that are strong candidates for acting downstream of Evx1/2 to specify the essential functional characteristics of V0v interneurons. Our data further suggest that in the absence of both Evx1 and Evx2  V0v spinal interneurons initially change their neurotransmitter phenotypes from excitatory to inhibitory and then  later  start to express markers of distinct types of inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Taken together  our findings significantly increase our knowledge of V0v spinal development and move us closer towards the essential goal of identifying the complete gene regulatory networks that specify this crucial cell type.

We have previously shown that Evx1 and Evx2 are required to specify the neurotransmitter phenotype of these cells. However  we still know very little about the gene regulatory networks that act downstream of these transcription factors in V0v cells. Methods: To identify candidate members of V0v gene regulatory networks  we FAC sorted WT and evx1;evx2 double mutant zebrafish V0v spinal interneurons and expression profiled them using microarrays and scRNA seq. We also used in situ hybridization to compare expression of a subset of candidate genes in evx1;evx2 mutants and wild type siblings.  Results: Our data reveal two molecularly distinct subtypes of V0v spinal interneurons at 48 h and suggest that  by this stage of development  evx1;evx2 double mutant cells transfate into either inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Our results also identify 25 transcriptional regulator genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons  plus a further 11 transcriptional regulator genes that are repressed in V0v interneurons by Evx1/2. Two of the latter genes are hmx2 and hmx3a. Intriguingly  we show that Hmx2/3a  repress dI2 interneuronal expression of skor1a and nefma  two genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons. This suggests that Evx1/2 might regulate skor1a and nefma expression in V0v interneurons by repressing Hmx2/3a expression. Conclusions: This study identifies two molecularly distinct subsets of V0v spinal interneurons  as well as multiple transcriptional regulators that are strong candidates for acting downstream of Evx1/2 to specify the essential functional characteristics of V0v interneurons. Our data further suggest that in the absence of both Evx1 and Evx2  V0v spinal interneurons initially change their neurotransmitter phenotypes from excitatory to inhibitory and then  later  start to express markers of distinct types of inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Taken together  our findings significantly increase our knowledge of V0v spinal development and move us closer towards the essential goal of identifying the complete gene regulatory networks that specify this crucial cell type.

We have previously shown that Evx1 and Evx2 are required to specify the neurotransmitter phenotype of these cells. However  we still know very little about the gene regulatory networks that act downstream of these transcription factors in V0v cells. Methods: To identify candidate members of V0v gene regulatory networks  we FAC sorted WT and evx1;evx2 double mutant zebrafish V0v spinal interneurons and expression profiled them using microarrays and scRNA seq. We also used in situ hybridization to compare expression of a subset of candidate genes in evx1;evx2 mutants and wild type siblings.  Results: Our data reveal two molecularly distinct subtypes of V0v spinal interneurons at 48 h and suggest that  by this stage of development  evx1;evx2 double mutant cells transfate into either inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Our results also identify 25 transcriptional regulator genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons  plus a further 11 transcriptional regulator genes that are repressed in V0v interneurons by Evx1/2. Two of the latter genes are hmx2 and hmx3a. Intriguingly  we show that Hmx2/3a  repress dI2 interneuronal expression of skor1a and nefma  two genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons. This suggests that Evx1/2 might regulate skor1a and nefma expression in V0v interneurons by repressing Hmx2/3a expression. Conclusions: This study identifies two molecularly distinct subsets of V0v spinal interneurons  as well as multiple transcriptional regulators that are strong candidates for acting downstream of Evx1/2 to specify the essential functional characteristics of V0v interneurons. Our data further suggest that in the absence of both Evx1 and Evx2  V0v spinal interneurons initially change their neurotransmitter phenotypes from excitatory to inhibitory and then  later  start to express markers of distinct types of inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Taken together  our findings significantly increase our knowledge of V0v spinal development and move us closer towards the essential goal of identifying the complete gene regulatory networks that specify this crucial cell type.

Our data further suggest that in the absence of both Evx1 and Evx2  V0v spinal interneurons initially change their neurotransmitter phenotypes from excitatory to inhibitory and then  later  start to express markers of distinct types of inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Taken together  our findings significantly increase our knowledge of V0v spinal development and move us closer towards the essential goal of identifying the complete gene regulatory networks that specify this crucial cell type.

We have previously shown that Evx1 and Evx2 are required to specify the neurotransmitter phenotype of these cells. However  we still know very little about the gene regulatory networks that act downstream of these transcription factors in V0v cells. Methods: To identify candidate members of V0v gene regulatory networks  we FAC sorted WT and evx1;evx2 double mutant zebrafish V0v spinal interneurons and expression profiled them using microarrays and scRNA seq. We also used in situ hybridization to compare expression of a subset of candidate genes in evx1;evx2 mutants and wild type siblings.  Results: Our data reveal two molecularly distinct subtypes of V0v spinal interneurons at 48 h and suggest that  by this stage of development  evx1;evx2 double mutant cells transfate into either inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Our results also identify 25 transcriptional regulator genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons  plus a further 11 transcriptional regulator genes that are repressed in V0v interneurons by Evx1/2. Two of the latter genes are hmx2 and hmx3a. Intriguingly  we show that Hmx2/3a  repress dI2 interneuronal expression of skor1a and nefma  two genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons. This suggests that Evx1/2 might regulate skor1a and nefma expression in V0v interneurons by repressing Hmx2/3a expression.

Ice cold samples were filtered through 35 \u00b5m mesh strainers in to 5 ml round bottomed polystyrene tubes Corning Falcon  352235. All FAC sorting and collection steps were performed at +4oC  using a 100 \u00b5m nozzle and 20 psi sort pressure. Successive doublet exclusion gates forward scatter height x forward scatter width  followed by side scatter height x side scatter width were used to finesse capture of real single cells. Accurate live/dead filtering was performed by selecting for DAPI negative sick cells are DAPI permeant and excluded and Draq 5 positive only healthy nuclei are Draq 5 permeant cells. Cells were sorted directly in to sterile 1.5 ml microcentrifuge tubes containing 100 \u00b5l of Buffer RLT Qiagen RNeasy Micro Kit  74004 plus 143 mM\uf020\u03b2 mercaptoethanol.

Samples were immediately transferred to Phasemaker tubes which had been pre centrifuged as per the manufacturer's instructions ThermoFisher Scientific  A33248  before incubating for 5 minutes at room temperature. 200 \u00b5l chloroform was added to each sample. The tubes were then shaken vigorously for 15 seconds and incubated for a further 5 minutes at room temperature. The samples were then centrifuged for 5 minutes at 16 000 x g at 4oC  before transferring the RNA containing upper aqueous phase to a sterile centrifuge tube and adding one volume of 70% RNase free ethanol. Samples were inverted to mix thoroughly  and the supernatant immediately loaded to an RNEasy MinElute column from the RNeasy Micro Kit  Qiagen  74004  before centrifuging for 15 seconds at 10 000 rpm. Wash steps with RW1 buffer  RPE buffer and 80% RNase free ethanol was performed as per the RNeasy Micro Kit instructions. Samples were eluted in 14 \u00b5l RNase free water. RNA integrity was assessed with the Agilent RNA 6000 Pico chip Agilent  5067 1513 on an Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer. Only samples with RNA integrity RIN values >9 were used for library preparation.

We have previously shown that Evx1 and Evx2 are required to specify the neurotransmitter phenotype of these cells. However  we still know very little about the gene regulatory networks that act downstream of these transcription factors in V0v cells. Methods: To identify candidate members of V0v gene regulatory networks  we FAC sorted WT and evx1;evx2 double mutant zebrafish V0v spinal interneurons and expression profiled them using microarrays and scRNA seq. We also used in situ hybridization to compare expression of a subset of candidate genes in evx1;evx2 mutants and wild type siblings.  Results: Our data reveal two molecularly distinct subtypes of V0v spinal interneurons at 48 h and suggest that  by this stage of development  evx1;evx2 double mutant cells transfate into either inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Our results also identify 25 transcriptional regulator genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons  plus a further 11 transcriptional regulator genes that are repressed in V0v interneurons by Evx1/2. Two of the latter genes are hmx2 and hmx3a. Intriguingly  we show that Hmx2/3a  repress dI2 interneuronal expression of skor1a and nefma  two genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons. This suggests that Evx1/2 might regulate skor1a and nefma expression in V0v interneurons by repressing Hmx2/3a expression. Conclusions: This study identifies two molecularly distinct subsets of V0v spinal interneurons  as well as multiple transcriptional regulators that are strong candidates for acting downstream of Evx1/2 to specify the essential functional characteristics of V0v interneurons. Our data further suggest that in the absence of both Evx1 and Evx2  V0v spinal interneurons initially change their neurotransmitter phenotypes from excitatory to inhibitory and then  later  start to express markers of distinct types of inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Taken together  our findings significantly increase our knowledge of V0v spinal development and move us closer towards the essential goal of identifying the complete gene regulatory networks that specify this crucial cell type.

[bulk RNA Seq]", "GSE240238", "Transcriptome Analysis", "Background: V0v spinal interneurons are highly conserved  glutamatergic  commissural neurons that function in locomotor circuits. We have previously shown that Evx1 and Evx2 are required to specify the neurotransmitter phenotype of these cells. However  we still know very little about the gene regulatory networks that act downstream of these transcription factors in V0v cells. Methods: To identify candidate members of V0v gene regulatory networks  we FAC sorted WT and evx1;evx2 double mutant zebrafish V0v spinal interneurons and expression profiled them using microarrays and scRNA seq. We also used in situ hybridization to compare expression of a subset of candidate genes in evx1;evx2 mutants and wild type siblings.  Results: Our data reveal two molecularly distinct subtypes of V0v spinal interneurons at 48 h and suggest that  by this stage of development  evx1;evx2 double mutant cells transfate into either inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Our results also identify 25 transcriptional regulator genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons  plus a further 11 transcriptional regulator genes that are repressed in V0v interneurons by Evx1/2. Two of the latter genes are hmx2 and hmx3a. Intriguingly  we show that Hmx2/3a  repress dI2 interneuronal expression of skor1a and nefma  two genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons. This suggests that Evx1/2 might regulate skor1a and nefma expression in V0v interneurons by repressing Hmx2/3a expression. Conclusions: This study identifies two molecularly distinct subsets of V0v spinal interneurons  as well as multiple transcriptional regulators that are strong candidates for acting downstream of Evx1/2 to specify the essential functional characteristics of V0v interneurons. Our data further suggest that in the absence of both Evx1 and Evx2  V0v spinal interneurons initially change their neurotransmitter phenotypes from excitatory to inhibitory and then  later  start to express markers of distinct types of inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Taken together  our findings significantly increase our knowledge of V0v spinal development and move us closer towards the essential goal of identifying the complete gene regulatory networks that specify this crucial cell type.

We have previously shown that Evx1 and Evx2 are required to specify the neurotransmitter phenotype of these cells. However  we still know very little about the gene regulatory networks that act downstream of these transcription factors in V0v cells. Methods: To identify candidate members of V0v gene regulatory networks  we FAC sorted WT and evx1;evx2 double mutant zebrafish V0v spinal interneurons and expression profiled them using microarrays and scRNA seq. We also used in situ hybridization to compare expression of a subset of candidate genes in evx1;evx2 mutants and wild type siblings.  Results: Our data reveal two molecularly distinct subtypes of V0v spinal interneurons at 48 h and suggest that  by this stage of development  evx1;evx2 double mutant cells transfate into either inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Our results also identify 25 transcriptional regulator genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons  plus a further 11 transcriptional regulator genes that are repressed in V0v interneurons by Evx1/2. Two of the latter genes are hmx2 and hmx3a. Intriguingly  we show that Hmx2/3a  repress dI2 interneuronal expression of skor1a and nefma  two genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons. This suggests that Evx1/2 might regulate skor1a and nefma expression in V0v interneurons by repressing Hmx2/3a expression. Conclusions: This study identifies two molecularly distinct subsets of V0v spinal interneurons  as well as multiple transcriptional regulators that are strong candidates for acting downstream of Evx1/2 to specify the essential functional characteristics of V0v interneurons. Our data further suggest that in the absence of both Evx1 and Evx2  V0v spinal interneurons initially change their neurotransmitter phenotypes from excitatory to inhibitory and then  later  start to express markers of distinct types of inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Taken together  our findings significantly increase our knowledge of V0v spinal development and move us closer towards the essential goal of identifying the complete gene regulatory networks that specify this crucial cell type.

We have previously shown that Evx1 and Evx2 are required to specify the neurotransmitter phenotype of these cells. However  we still know very little about the gene regulatory networks that act downstream of these transcription factors in V0v cells. Methods: To identify candidate members of V0v gene regulatory networks  we FAC sorted WT and evx1;evx2 double mutant zebrafish V0v spinal interneurons and expression profiled them using microarrays and scRNA seq. We also used in situ hybridization to compare expression of a subset of candidate genes in evx1;evx2 mutants and wild type siblings.  Results: Our data reveal two molecularly distinct subtypes of V0v spinal interneurons at 48 h and suggest that  by this stage of development  evx1;evx2 double mutant cells transfate into either inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Our results also identify 25 transcriptional regulator genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons  plus a further 11 transcriptional regulator genes that are repressed in V0v interneurons by Evx1/2. Two of the latter genes are hmx2 and hmx3a. Intriguingly  we show that Hmx2/3a  repress dI2 interneuronal expression of skor1a and nefma  two genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons. This suggests that Evx1/2 might regulate skor1a and nefma expression in V0v interneurons by repressing Hmx2/3a expression. Conclusions: This study identifies two molecularly distinct subsets of V0v spinal interneurons  as well as multiple transcriptional regulators that are strong candidates for acting downstream of Evx1/2 to specify the essential functional characteristics of V0v interneurons. Our data further suggest that in the absence of both Evx1 and Evx2  V0v spinal interneurons initially change their neurotransmitter phenotypes from excitatory to inhibitory and then  later  start to express markers of distinct types of inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Taken together  our findings significantly increase our knowledge of V0v spinal development and move us closer towards the essential goal of identifying the complete gene regulatory networks that specify this crucial cell type.

Taken together  our findings significantly increase our knowledge of V0v spinal development and move us closer towards the essential goal of identifying the complete gene regulatory networks that specify this crucial cell type.

[bulk RNA Seq]", "GSE240238", "Transcriptome Analysis", "Background: V0v spinal interneurons are highly conserved  glutamatergic  commissural neurons that function in locomotor circuits. We have previously shown that Evx1 and Evx2 are required to specify the neurotransmitter phenotype of these cells. However  we still know very little about the gene regulatory networks that act downstream of these transcription factors in V0v cells. Methods: To identify candidate members of V0v gene regulatory networks  we FAC sorted WT and evx1;evx2 double mutant zebrafish V0v spinal interneurons and expression profiled them using microarrays and scRNA seq. We also used in situ hybridization to compare expression of a subset of candidate genes in evx1;evx2 mutants and wild type siblings.  Results: Our data reveal two molecularly distinct subtypes of V0v spinal interneurons at 48 h and suggest that  by this stage of development  evx1;evx2 double mutant cells transfate into either inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Our results also identify 25 transcriptional regulator genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons  plus a further 11 transcriptional regulator genes that are repressed in V0v interneurons by Evx1/2. Two of the latter genes are hmx2 and hmx3a. Intriguingly  we show that Hmx2/3a  repress dI2 interneuronal expression of skor1a and nefma  two genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons. This suggests that Evx1/2 might regulate skor1a and nefma expression in V0v interneurons by repressing Hmx2/3a expression. Conclusions: This study identifies two molecularly distinct subsets of V0v spinal interneurons  as well as multiple transcriptional regulators that are strong candidates for acting downstream of Evx1/2 to specify the essential functional characteristics of V0v interneurons.

We have previously shown that Evx1 and Evx2 are required to specify the neurotransmitter phenotype of these cells. However  we still know very little about the gene regulatory networks that act downstream of these transcription factors in V0v cells. Methods: To identify candidate members of V0v gene regulatory networks  we FAC sorted WT and evx1;evx2 double mutant zebrafish V0v spinal interneurons and expression profiled them using microarrays and scRNA seq. We also used in situ hybridization to compare expression of a subset of candidate genes in evx1;evx2 mutants and wild type siblings.  Results: Our data reveal two molecularly distinct subtypes of V0v spinal interneurons at 48 h and suggest that  by this stage of development  evx1;evx2 double mutant cells transfate into either inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Our results also identify 25 transcriptional regulator genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons  plus a further 11 transcriptional regulator genes that are repressed in V0v interneurons by Evx1/2. Two of the latter genes are hmx2 and hmx3a. Intriguingly  we show that Hmx2/3a  repress dI2 interneuronal expression of skor1a and nefma  two genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons. This suggests that Evx1/2 might regulate skor1a and nefma expression in V0v interneurons by repressing Hmx2/3a expression. Conclusions: This study identifies two molecularly distinct subsets of V0v spinal interneurons  as well as multiple transcriptional regulators that are strong candidates for acting downstream of Evx1/2 to specify the essential functional characteristics of V0v interneurons. Our data further suggest that in the absence of both Evx1 and Evx2  V0v spinal interneurons initially change their neurotransmitter phenotypes from excitatory to inhibitory and then  later  start to express markers of distinct types of inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Taken together  our findings significantly increase our knowledge of V0v spinal development and move us closer towards the essential goal of identifying the complete gene regulatory networks that specify this crucial cell type.

[bulk RNA Seq]", "GSE240238", "Transcriptome Analysis", "Background: V0v spinal interneurons are highly conserved  glutamatergic  commissural neurons that function in locomotor circuits. We have previously shown that Evx1 and Evx2 are required to specify the neurotransmitter phenotype of these cells. However  we still know very little about the gene regulatory networks that act downstream of these transcription factors in V0v cells. Methods: To identify candidate members of V0v gene regulatory networks  we FAC sorted WT and evx1;evx2 double mutant zebrafish V0v spinal interneurons and expression profiled them using microarrays and scRNA seq. We also used in situ hybridization to compare expression of a subset of candidate genes in evx1;evx2 mutants and wild type siblings.  Results: Our data reveal two molecularly distinct subtypes of V0v spinal interneurons at 48 h and suggest that  by this stage of development  evx1;evx2 double mutant cells transfate into either inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Our results also identify 25 transcriptional regulator genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons  plus a further 11 transcriptional regulator genes that are repressed in V0v interneurons by Evx1/2. Two of the latter genes are hmx2 and hmx3a. Intriguingly  we show that Hmx2/3a  repress dI2 interneuronal expression of skor1a and nefma  two genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons. This suggests that Evx1/2 might regulate skor1a and nefma expression in V0v interneurons by repressing Hmx2/3a expression. Conclusions: This study identifies two molecularly distinct subsets of V0v spinal interneurons  as well as multiple transcriptional regulators that are strong candidates for acting downstream of Evx1/2 to specify the essential functional characteristics of V0v interneurons. Our data further suggest that in the absence of both Evx1 and Evx2  V0v spinal interneurons initially change their neurotransmitter phenotypes from excitatory to inhibitory and then  later  start to express markers of distinct types of inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Taken together  our findings significantly increase our knowledge of V0v spinal development and move us closer towards the essential goal of identifying the complete gene regulatory networks that specify this crucial cell type.

We have previously shown that Evx1 and Evx2 are required to specify the neurotransmitter phenotype of these cells. However  we still know very little about the gene regulatory networks that act downstream of these transcription factors in V0v cells. Methods: To identify candidate members of V0v gene regulatory networks  we FAC sorted WT and evx1;evx2 double mutant zebrafish V0v spinal interneurons and expression profiled them using microarrays and scRNA seq. We also used in situ hybridization to compare expression of a subset of candidate genes in evx1;evx2 mutants and wild type siblings.  Results: Our data reveal two molecularly distinct subtypes of V0v spinal interneurons at 48 h and suggest that  by this stage of development  evx1;evx2 double mutant cells transfate into either inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Our results also identify 25 transcriptional regulator genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons  plus a further 11 transcriptional regulator genes that are repressed in V0v interneurons by Evx1/2. Two of the latter genes are hmx2 and hmx3a. Intriguingly  we show that Hmx2/3a  repress dI2 interneuronal expression of skor1a and nefma  two genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons. This suggests that Evx1/2 might regulate skor1a and nefma expression in V0v interneurons by repressing Hmx2/3a expression. Conclusions: This study identifies two molecularly distinct subsets of V0v spinal interneurons  as well as multiple transcriptional regulators that are strong candidates for acting downstream of Evx1/2 to specify the essential functional characteristics of V0v interneurons. Our data further suggest that in the absence of both Evx1 and Evx2  V0v spinal interneurons initially change their neurotransmitter phenotypes from excitatory to inhibitory and then  later  start to express markers of distinct types of inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Taken together  our findings significantly increase our knowledge of V0v spinal development and move us closer towards the essential goal of identifying the complete gene regulatory networks that specify this crucial cell type.

We have previously shown that Evx1 and Evx2 are required to specify the neurotransmitter phenotype of these cells. However  we still know very little about the gene regulatory networks that act downstream of these transcription factors in V0v cells. Methods: To identify candidate members of V0v gene regulatory networks  we FAC sorted WT and evx1;evx2 double mutant zebrafish V0v spinal interneurons and expression profiled them using microarrays and scRNA seq. We also used in situ hybridization to compare expression of a subset of candidate genes in evx1;evx2 mutants and wild type siblings.  Results: Our data reveal two molecularly distinct subtypes of V0v spinal interneurons at 48 h and suggest that  by this stage of development  evx1;evx2 double mutant cells transfate into either inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Our results also identify 25 transcriptional regulator genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons  plus a further 11 transcriptional regulator genes that are repressed in V0v interneurons by Evx1/2. Two of the latter genes are hmx2 and hmx3a. Intriguingly  we show that Hmx2/3a  repress dI2 interneuronal expression of skor1a and nefma  two genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons. This suggests that Evx1/2 might regulate skor1a and nefma expression in V0v interneurons by repressing Hmx2/3a expression. Conclusions: This study identifies two molecularly distinct subsets of V0v spinal interneurons  as well as multiple transcriptional regulators that are strong candidates for acting downstream of Evx1/2 to specify the essential functional characteristics of V0v interneurons. Our data further suggest that in the absence of both Evx1 and Evx2  V0v spinal interneurons initially change their neurotransmitter phenotypes from excitatory to inhibitory and then  later  start to express markers of distinct types of inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Taken together  our findings significantly increase our knowledge of V0v spinal development and move us closer towards the essential goal of identifying the complete gene regulatory networks that specify this crucial cell type.

[bulk RNA Seq]", "GSE240238", "Transcriptome Analysis", "Background: V0v spinal interneurons are highly conserved  glutamatergic  commissural neurons that function in locomotor circuits. We have previously shown that Evx1 and Evx2 are required to specify the neurotransmitter phenotype of these cells. However  we still know very little about the gene regulatory networks that act downstream of these transcription factors in V0v cells. Methods: To identify candidate members of V0v gene regulatory networks  we FAC sorted WT and evx1;evx2 double mutant zebrafish V0v spinal interneurons and expression profiled them using microarrays and scRNA seq. We also used in situ hybridization to compare expression of a subset of candidate genes in evx1;evx2 mutants and wild type siblings.  Results: Our data reveal two molecularly distinct subtypes of V0v spinal interneurons at 48 h and suggest that  by this stage of development  evx1;evx2 double mutant cells transfate into either inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Our results also identify 25 transcriptional regulator genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons  plus a further 11 transcriptional regulator genes that are repressed in V0v interneurons by Evx1/2. Two of the latter genes are hmx2 and hmx3a. Intriguingly  we show that Hmx2/3a  repress dI2 interneuronal expression of skor1a and nefma  two genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons. This suggests that Evx1/2 might regulate skor1a and nefma expression in V0v interneurons by repressing Hmx2/3a expression. Conclusions: This study identifies two molecularly distinct subsets of V0v spinal interneurons  as well as multiple transcriptional regulators that are strong candidates for acting downstream of Evx1/2 to specify the essential functional characteristics of V0v interneurons. Our data further suggest that in the absence of both Evx1 and Evx2  V0v spinal interneurons initially change their neurotransmitter phenotypes from excitatory to inhibitory and then  later  start to express markers of distinct types of inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Taken together  our findings significantly increase our knowledge of V0v spinal development and move us closer towards the essential goal of identifying the complete gene regulatory networks that specify this crucial cell type.

We have previously shown that Evx1 and Evx2 are required to specify the neurotransmitter phenotype of these cells. However  we still know very little about the gene regulatory networks that act downstream of these transcription factors in V0v cells. Methods: To identify candidate members of V0v gene regulatory networks  we FAC sorted WT and evx1;evx2 double mutant zebrafish V0v spinal interneurons and expression profiled them using microarrays and scRNA seq. We also used in situ hybridization to compare expression of a subset of candidate genes in evx1;evx2 mutants and wild type siblings.  Results: Our data reveal two molecularly distinct subtypes of V0v spinal interneurons at 48 h and suggest that  by this stage of development  evx1;evx2 double mutant cells transfate into either inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Our results also identify 25 transcriptional regulator genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons  plus a further 11 transcriptional regulator genes that are repressed in V0v interneurons by Evx1/2. Two of the latter genes are hmx2 and hmx3a. Intriguingly  we show that Hmx2/3a  repress dI2 interneuronal expression of skor1a and nefma  two genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons. This suggests that Evx1/2 might regulate skor1a and nefma expression in V0v interneurons by repressing Hmx2/3a expression. Conclusions: This study identifies two molecularly distinct subsets of V0v spinal interneurons  as well as multiple transcriptional regulators that are strong candidates for acting downstream of Evx1/2 to specify the essential functional characteristics of V0v interneurons. Our data further suggest that in the absence of both Evx1 and Evx2  V0v spinal interneurons initially change their neurotransmitter phenotypes from excitatory to inhibitory and then  later  start to express markers of distinct types of inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Taken together  our findings significantly increase our knowledge of V0v spinal development and move us closer towards the essential goal of identifying the complete gene regulatory networks that specify this crucial cell type.

We have previously shown that Evx1 and Evx2 are required to specify the neurotransmitter phenotype of these cells. However  we still know very little about the gene regulatory networks that act downstream of these transcription factors in V0v cells. Methods: To identify candidate members of V0v gene regulatory networks  we FAC sorted WT and evx1;evx2 double mutant zebrafish V0v spinal interneurons and expression profiled them using microarrays and scRNA seq. We also used in situ hybridization to compare expression of a subset of candidate genes in evx1;evx2 mutants and wild type siblings.  Results: Our data reveal two molecularly distinct subtypes of V0v spinal interneurons at 48 h and suggest that  by this stage of development  evx1;evx2 double mutant cells transfate into either inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Our results also identify 25 transcriptional regulator genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons  plus a further 11 transcriptional regulator genes that are repressed in V0v interneurons by Evx1/2. Two of the latter genes are hmx2 and hmx3a. Intriguingly  we show that Hmx2/3a  repress dI2 interneuronal expression of skor1a and nefma  two genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons. This suggests that Evx1/2 might regulate skor1a and nefma expression in V0v interneurons by repressing Hmx2/3a expression. Conclusions: This study identifies two molecularly distinct subsets of V0v spinal interneurons  as well as multiple transcriptional regulators that are strong candidates for acting downstream of Evx1/2 to specify the essential functional characteristics of V0v interneurons. Our data further suggest that in the absence of both Evx1 and Evx2  V0v spinal interneurons initially change their neurotransmitter phenotypes from excitatory to inhibitory and then  later  start to express markers of distinct types of inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Taken together  our findings significantly increase our knowledge of V0v spinal development and move us closer towards the essential goal of identifying the complete gene regulatory networks that specify this crucial cell type.

Results: Our data reveal two molecularly distinct subtypes of V0v spinal interneurons at 48 h and suggest that  by this stage of development  evx1;evx2 double mutant cells transfate into either inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Our results also identify 25 transcriptional regulator genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons  plus a further 11 transcriptional regulator genes that are repressed in V0v interneurons by Evx1/2. Two of the latter genes are hmx2 and hmx3a. Intriguingly  we show that Hmx2/3a  repress dI2 interneuronal expression of skor1a and nefma  two genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons. This suggests that Evx1/2 might regulate skor1a and nefma expression in V0v interneurons by repressing Hmx2/3a expression. Conclusions: This study identifies two molecularly distinct subsets of V0v spinal interneurons  as well as multiple transcriptional regulators that are strong candidates for acting downstream of Evx1/2 to specify the essential functional characteristics of V0v interneurons. Our data further suggest that in the absence of both Evx1 and Evx2  V0v spinal interneurons initially change their neurotransmitter phenotypes from excitatory to inhibitory and then  later  start to express markers of distinct types of inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Taken together  our findings significantly increase our knowledge of V0v spinal development and move us closer towards the essential goal of identifying the complete gene regulatory networks that specify this crucial cell type.

Immediately post homogenising the digested tissue mixture with a sterile p200 tip  we passed each sample through a 40 \u00b5m Flowmi cell strainer Merck  BAH136800040 into a sterile microcentrifuge tube. post Papain inactivation  samples were resuspended in 1 ml Leibovitz's L 15 medium ThermoFisher Scientific  21083027 + 0.5% FBS and stored on ice. Immediately before FACS  DAPI Merck  D9542 and Draq5 BioLegend  424101 were added at a final concentration of 5 \u00b5g/ml and 5 \u00b5M respectively.  FACS was performed using a Becton Dickinson FACS Aria III Cell Sorter at the SUNY Upstate Medical University Research Flow Core using the parameters described by Cerda et al.  2008 with the following modifications. Ice cold samples were filtered through 35 \u00b5m mesh strainers in to 5 ml round bottomed polystyrene tubes Corning Falcon  352235. All FAC sorting and collection steps were performed at +4oC  using a 100 \u00b5m nozzle and 20 psi sort pressure. Successive doublet exclusion gates forward scatter height x forward scatter width  followed by side scatter height x side scatter width were used to finesse capture of real single cells. Accurate live/dead filtering was performed by selecting for DAPI negative sick cells are DAPI permeant and excluded and Draq 5 positive only healthy nuclei are Draq 5 permeant cells. Cells were sorted directly in to sterile 1.5 ml microcentrifuge tubes containing 100 \u00b5l of Buffer RLT Qiagen RNeasy Micro Kit  74004 plus 143 mM\uf020\u03b2 mercaptoethanol.

Samples were immediately transferred to Phasemaker tubes which had been pre centrifuged as per the manufacturer's instructions ThermoFisher Scientific  A33248  before incubating for 5 minutes at room temperature. 200 \u00b5l chloroform was added to each sample. The tubes were then shaken vigorously for 15 seconds and incubated for a further 5 minutes at room temperature. The samples were then centrifuged for 5 minutes at 16 000 x g at 4oC  before transferring the RNA containing upper aqueous phase to a sterile centrifuge tube and adding one volume of 70% RNase free ethanol. Samples were inverted to mix thoroughly  and the supernatant immediately loaded to an RNEasy MinElute column from the RNeasy Micro Kit  Qiagen  74004  before centrifuging for 15 seconds at 10 000 rpm. Wash steps with RW1 buffer  RPE buffer and 80% RNase free ethanol was performed as per the RNeasy Micro Kit instructions. Samples were eluted in 14 \u00b5l RNase free water. RNA integrity was assessed with the Agilent RNA 6000 Pico chip Agilent  5067 1513 on an Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer. Only samples with RNA integrity RIN values >9 were used for library preparation.

We have previously shown that Evx1 and Evx2 are required to specify the neurotransmitter phenotype of these cells. However  we still know very little about the gene regulatory networks that act downstream of these transcription factors in V0v cells. Methods: To identify candidate members of V0v gene regulatory networks  we FAC sorted WT and evx1;evx2 double mutant zebrafish V0v spinal interneurons and expression profiled them using microarrays and scRNA seq. We also used in situ hybridization to compare expression of a subset of candidate genes in evx1;evx2 mutants and wild type siblings.  Results: Our data reveal two molecularly distinct subtypes of V0v spinal interneurons at 48 h and suggest that  by this stage of development  evx1;evx2 double mutant cells transfate into either inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Our results also identify 25 transcriptional regulator genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons  plus a further 11 transcriptional regulator genes that are repressed in V0v interneurons by Evx1/2. Two of the latter genes are hmx2 and hmx3a. Intriguingly  we show that Hmx2/3a  repress dI2 interneuronal expression of skor1a and nefma  two genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons. This suggests that Evx1/2 might regulate skor1a and nefma expression in V0v interneurons by repressing Hmx2/3a expression. Conclusions: This study identifies two molecularly distinct subsets of V0v spinal interneurons  as well as multiple transcriptional regulators that are strong candidates for acting downstream of Evx1/2 to specify the essential functional characteristics of V0v interneurons. Our data further suggest that in the absence of both Evx1 and Evx2  V0v spinal interneurons initially change their neurotransmitter phenotypes from excitatory to inhibitory and then  later  start to express markers of distinct types of inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Taken together  our findings significantly increase our knowledge of V0v spinal development and move us closer towards the essential goal of identifying the complete gene regulatory networks that specify this crucial cell type.

[bulk RNA Seq]", "GSE240238", "Transcriptome Analysis", "Background: V0v spinal interneurons are highly conserved  glutamatergic  commissural neurons that function in locomotor circuits. We have previously shown that Evx1 and Evx2 are required to specify the neurotransmitter phenotype of these cells. However  we still know very little about the gene regulatory networks that act downstream of these transcription factors in V0v cells. Methods: To identify candidate members of V0v gene regulatory networks  we FAC sorted WT and evx1;evx2 double mutant zebrafish V0v spinal interneurons and expression profiled them using microarrays and scRNA seq. We also used in situ hybridization to compare expression of a subset of candidate genes in evx1;evx2 mutants and wild type siblings.  Results: Our data reveal two molecularly distinct subtypes of V0v spinal interneurons at 48 h and suggest that  by this stage of development  evx1;evx2 double mutant cells transfate into either inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Our results also identify 25 transcriptional regulator genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons  plus a further 11 transcriptional regulator genes that are repressed in V0v interneurons by Evx1/2. Two of the latter genes are hmx2 and hmx3a. Intriguingly  we show that Hmx2/3a  repress dI2 interneuronal expression of skor1a and nefma  two genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons. This suggests that Evx1/2 might regulate skor1a and nefma expression in V0v interneurons by repressing Hmx2/3a expression. Conclusions: This study identifies two molecularly distinct subsets of V0v spinal interneurons  as well as multiple transcriptional regulators that are strong candidates for acting downstream of Evx1/2 to specify the essential functional characteristics of V0v interneurons. Our data further suggest that in the absence of both Evx1 and Evx2  V0v spinal interneurons initially change their neurotransmitter phenotypes from excitatory to inhibitory and then  later  start to express markers of distinct types of inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Taken together  our findings significantly increase our knowledge of V0v spinal development and move us closer towards the essential goal of identifying the complete gene regulatory networks that specify this crucial cell type.

[bulk RNA Seq]", "GSE240238", "Transcriptome Analysis", "Background: V0v spinal interneurons are highly conserved  glutamatergic  commissural neurons that function in locomotor circuits. We have previously shown that Evx1 and Evx2 are required to specify the neurotransmitter phenotype of these cells. However  we still know very little about the gene regulatory networks that act downstream of these transcription factors in V0v cells. Methods: To identify candidate members of V0v gene regulatory networks  we FAC sorted WT and evx1;evx2 double mutant zebrafish V0v spinal interneurons and expression profiled them using microarrays and scRNA seq. We also used in situ hybridization to compare expression of a subset of candidate genes in evx1;evx2 mutants and wild type siblings.  Results: Our data reveal two molecularly distinct subtypes of V0v spinal interneurons at 48 h and suggest that  by this stage of development  evx1;evx2 double mutant cells transfate into either inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Our results also identify 25 transcriptional regulator genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons  plus a further 11 transcriptional regulator genes that are repressed in V0v interneurons by Evx1/2. Two of the latter genes are hmx2 and hmx3a. Intriguingly  we show that Hmx2/3a  repress dI2 interneuronal expression of skor1a and nefma  two genes that require Evx1/2 for their expression in V0v interneurons. This suggests that Evx1/2 might regulate skor1a and nefma expression in V0v interneurons by repressing Hmx2/3a expression. Conclusions: This study identifies two molecularly distinct subsets of V0v spinal interneurons  as well as multiple transcriptional regulators that are strong candidates for acting downstream of Evx1/2 to specify the essential functional characteristics of V0v interneurons. Our data further suggest that in the absence of both Evx1 and Evx2  V0v spinal interneurons initially change their neurotransmitter phenotypes from excitatory to inhibitory and then  later  start to express markers of distinct types of inhibitory spinal interneurons  or motoneurons. Taken together  our findings significantly increase our knowledge of V0v spinal development and move us closer towards the essential goal of identifying the complete gene regulatory networks that specify this crucial cell type. Overall design: Ten samples were analysed in total  all at 27 hpf.
