SUMMARY:Hyung Jin Choi\, A Normative Framework Dissociates Need and Motivation in Hypothalamic Neurons
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Physiological needs evoke motivational drives to produce natural behaviours for survival. However\, the temporally intertwined dynamics of need and motivation have made it challenging to differentiate these two components in previous experimental paradigms. Based on classic homeostatic theories\, we established a normative framework to derive computational models of neural activity and behaviours for need-encoding and motivation-encoding neurons during events that induce predicted gain or loss. We further developed simple and intuitive experimental paradigms that enabled us to distinguish the distinct roles of subpopulations of neurons in the hypothalamus. Our results show that AgRP neurons and LHLepR neurons are consistent with need and motivation\, respectively. Our study provides a parsimonious understanding of how distinct hypothalamic neurons separately encode need and motivation to produce adaptive behaviours for maintaining homeostasis.\n\nZOOM ID: 997 8258 4700 (Biomedical Mathematics Online Colloquium)\, (pw: 1234)

SUMMARY:Junil Kim\, TENET+: a tool for reconstructing gene networks by integrating single cell expression and chromatin accessibility data
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Reconstruction of gene regulatory networks (GRNs) is a powerful approach to capture a prioritized gene set controlling cellular processes. In our previous study\, we developed TENET a GRN reconstructor from single cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq). TENET has a superior capability to identify key regulators compared with other algorithms. However\, accurate inference of gene regulation is still challenging. Here\, we suggest an integrative strategy called TENET+ by combining single cell transcriptome and chromatin accessibility data. TENET+ predicts target genes and open chromatin regions associated with transcription factors (TFs) and links the target regions to their corresponding target gene. As a result\, TENET+ can infer regulatory triplets of TF\, target gene\, and enhancer. By applying TENET+ to a paired scRNAseq and scATACseq dataset of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells\, we found critical regulators and their epigenetic regulations for the differentiations of CD4 T cells\, CD8 T cells\, B cells and monocytes. Interestingly\, not only did TENET+ predict several top regulators of each cell type which were not predicted by the motif-based tool SCENIC\, but we also found that TENET+ outperformed SCENIC in prioritizing critical regulators by using a cell type associated gene list. Furthermore\, utilizing and modeling regulatory triplets\, we can infer a comprehensive epigenetic GRN. In sum\, TENET+ is a tool predicting epigenetic gene regulatory programs for various types of datasets in an unbiased way\, suggesting that novel epigenetic regulations can be identified by TENET+. \nGithub page: https://github.com/hg0426/TENETPLUS.
