Résumé

In vitro corticogenesis from embryonic stem cells (ESCs) is an attractive model of cortical development and a promising tool for corticaltherapy. It is unknown to which extent epigenetic mechanisms crucial for cortex development and function, such as parental genomicimprinting, are recapitulated by in vitro corticogenesis. Here, using genome-wide transcriptomic and methylation analyses on hybridmouse tissues and cells, wefind a high concordance of imprinting status between invivo and ESC-derived cortices. Notably, in vitrocorticogenesis strictly reproduced the in vivo parent-of-origin-dependent expression of 41 imprinted genes (IGs), including Mest and Cdkn1c known to control corticogenesis. Parent-of-origin-dependent DNA methylation was also conserved at 14 of 18 imprinted differentially methylated regions. The least concordant imprinted locus was Gpr1-Zdbf2, where the aberrant bi-allelic expression of Zdbf2 and Adam23 was concomitant with a gain of methylation on the maternal allele in vitro. Combined, our data argue for a broad conservation of the epigenetic mechanisms at imprinted loci in cortical cells derived from ESCs. We propose that in vitro corticogenesis helps to define the still poorly understood mechanisms that regulate imprinting in the brain and the roles of IGs in cortical development
