| contents | Elp1 function in placode‐derived neurons is critical for proper trigeminal ganglion development Margaret A. Hines Lisa A. Taneyhill Developmental Dynamics Abstract Background The trigeminal nerve is the largest cranial nerve and functions in somatosensation. Cell bodies of this nerve are positioned in the trigeminal ganglion, which arises from the coalescence of neural crest and placode cells. While this dual cellular origin has been known for decades, the molecular mechanisms controlling trigeminal ganglion development remain obscure. We performed RNA sequencing on the forming chick trigeminal ganglion and identified Elongator acetyltransferase complex subunit 1 ( Elp1 ) for further study. Mutations in ELP1 cause familial dysautonomia (FD), a fatal disorder characterized by the presence of smaller trigeminal nerves and sensory deficits. While Elp1 has established roles in neurogenesis, its function in placode cells during trigeminal gangliogenesis has not been investigated. Results To this end, we used morpholinos to deplete Elp1 from chick trigeminal placode cells. Elp1 knockdown decreased trigeminal ganglion size and led to aberrant innervation of the eye by placode‐derived neurons. Trigeminal nerve branches also appeared to exhibit reduced axon outgrowth to target tissues. Conclusions These findings reveal a new role for Elp1 in placode‐derived neurons during chick trigeminal ganglion development. These results have potential high significance to provide new insights into trigeminal ganglion development and the etiology of FD. 10.1002/dvdy.749 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ |
