Project description:Inactivating mutations in the MEN1 gene predisposing to the multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) syndrome can also cause sporadic pancreatic endocrine tumors. MEN1 encodes menin, a subunit of MLL1/MLL2-containing histone methyltransferase complexes that trimethylate histone H3 at lysine 4 (H3K4me3). The importance of menin-dependent H3K4me3 in normal and transformed pancreatic endocrine cells is unclear. To study the role of menin-dependent H3K4me3, we performed in vitro differentiation of wild-type as well as menin-null mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) into pancreatic islet-like endocrine cells (PILECs). Gene expression analysis and genome-wide H3K4me3 ChIP-Seq profiling in wild-type and menin-null mESCs and PILECs revealed menin-dependent H3K4me3 at the imprinted Dlk1-Meg3 locus in mESCs, and all four Hox loci in differentiated PILECs. Specific and significant loss of H3K4me3 and gene expression was observed for genes within the imprinted Dlk1-Meg3 locus in menin-null mESCs and the Hox loci in menin-null PILECs. Given that the reduced expression of genes within the DLK1-MEG3 locus and the HOX loci is associated with MEN1-like sporadic tumors, our data suggests a possible role for menin-dependent H3K4me3 at these genes in the initiation and progression of sporadic pancreatic endocrine tumors. Furthermore, our investigation also demonstrates that menin-null mESCs can be differentiated in vitro into islet-like endocrine cells, underscoring the utility of menin-null mESC-derived specialized cell types for genome-wide high-throughput studies. Genome-wide mapping of H3K4me3 and microarray gene expression profiling in TC-1 wild-type (WT) mESCs, menin-null (Men1-ko) mESCs (3.2N), pancreatic islet-like endocrine cells (PILECs) derived from WT mESCs, and PILECs derived from Men1-ko mESCs.

Project description:Glucose homeostasis is dependent on functional pancreatic α and ß cells. Mechanisms underlying generation and maturation of these endocrine cells remain unclear. Here, we unravel the molecular mode of action of ISL1 in controlling α cell fate and endocrine differentiation in the pancreas. By combining transgenic mouse models, transcriptomic and epigenomic profiling, we uncover that elimination of Isl1 results in a diabetic phenotype with a complete loss of α cells, disrupted pancreatic islet architecture, downregulation of maturation markers of ß cells, and an enrichment in an intermediate endocrine progenitor transcriptomic profile. Mechanistically, apart from the altered transcriptome of pancreatic endocrine cells, Isl1 elimination results in altered silencing H3K27me3 histone modifications in the promoter regions of the essential genes for endocrine cell differentiation. Our results thus show that ISL1 transcriptionally and epigenetically controls α cell fate competence, and ß cell maturation, suggesting that ISL1 is a critical component for generating functional α and ß cells.

Project description:Genes involved in distinct diabetes types suggest shared disease mechanisms. We show that rare ONECUT1 coding variants cause monogenic recessive diabetes (neonatal or very early-onset, syndromic) in two unrelated patients, and monogenic dominant diabetes (early adult-onset) in heterozygous relatives of these and 13 additional unrelated cases. Patients heterozygous for rare ONECUT1 coding variants define a subgroup of T2D with early-onset diabetes and other features. In addition, common regulatory ONECUT1 variants are associated with multifactorial T2D. Directed differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells to the pancreatic lineage revealed that loss of ONECUT1 impairs pancreatic progenitor formation and a subsequent endocrine program. We uncovered that ONECUT1 activates the pro-endocrine genes NKX6.1 and NKX2.2 through binding to their cis-regulatory elements. Globally, ONECUT1-directed gene transcription occurs in association with major islet transcription factors, at clusters of pancreas- and endocrine-specific enhancers within open chromatin. ONECUT1 regulates a transcriptional and epigenetic machinery critical for proper endocrine pancreatic development, involved in a spectrum of diabetes, monogenic recessive and dominant, and multifactorial.

Project description:To decipher the populations of cells present in the human fetal pancreas and their lineage relationships, we developed strategies to isolate pancreatic progenitors, endocrine progenitors and endocrine cells. Transcriptome analysis of the individual populationsrevealed a large degree of conservation among vertebrates in the drivers of gene expression changes occurring at different steps of differentiation, althoughnotably, sometimes, different members of the same gene family are expressed. The transcriptome analysis establishes a resource to identify novel genes and pathways involved in human pancreas development. Single cell profiling further captured intermediate stages ofdifferentiation and enabled us to decipher the sequence of transcriptional events occurring during human endocrine differentiation. Furthermore, we evaluate how well individual pancreatic cells derived in vitro from human pluripotent stem cells mirror the natural processoccurring in human fetuses. This comparison uncovers a few differences at the progenitor steps, a convergence at the steps of endocrine induction and the current inability to fully resolve endocrine cell subtypes in vitro.

Project description:In vitro differentiation of human ES cells into insulin-producing β-like cells offers new opportunities for pancreatic development modeling and potential diabetes therapy. However, the precise molecular events associated with this multi-stage process remain unclear. Here, we generated 95,308 single cell transcriptome data encompassing the entire differentiation process, and reconstructed a tree delineating the fate choices of all major cell populations in both endocrine and non-endocrine lineages. Most detectable genes are dynamically regulated during differentiation, and stage-specific transcription factors create the time-dependent enhancer landscapes. Interestingly, we found that many diabetes/obesity risk genes are only transiently expressed during differentiation. One example is TCF7L2, which peaked during the pancreatic progenitor stages driven by an enhancer located within a diabetes GWAS locus. From the lineage analysis, we found that the NOTCH signaling-downstream gene HES1 is one of the “switch genes” associated with the choice of non-endocrine cell fate; this led to an improved differentiation protocol for better yield of endocrine cells by adjusting the timing of NOTCH inhibition. Additionally, we discovered that ROCKII inhibitor also promotes endocrine differentiation by suppressing non-endocrine lineage. Taken together, our comprehensive single cell lineage analyses provided a valuable resource for the study of pancreatic development and disease etiology.
