Project description:Quiescent hair follicle (HF) bulge stem cells (SCs) differentiate to early progenitor (EP) hair germ (HG) cells, which divide to produce transit-amplifying (TA) matrix cells. EPs can revert to SCs upon injury, but whether this de-differentiation occurs in normal HF homeostasis (hair cycle), and the mechanisms regulating both differentiation and de-differentiation are unclear. Here we use lineage tracing, gain of function, transcriptional profiling, and functional assays to examine the role of observed endogenous Runx1 level changes in the hair cycle. We find that forced Runx1 expression implements hair degeneration (catagen) and simultaneously promotes changes in the quiescent bulge SC transcriptome towards a cell-state resembling the EP HG fate. This cell-state transition is functionally reversible. We propose that SC differentiation and de-differentiation are likely to occur during normal HF degeneration and niche restructuring in response to changes in endogenous Runx1 levels associated with SC location with respect to the niche. Freshly isolated skin cells were FACS sorted based on K15-GFP+/a6-integrin+/CD34- as hair germ and K15-GFP+/a6-integrin+/CD34+ bulge cells. Duplicate samlpes from mice at PD20 that showed telogen morphology throughout skin were used for RNA prepartion and Affymetrix analysis. Wild and transgenic samples after 1-day of doxycycline treatement were compared.

Project description:In many organs, adult stem cells are uniquely poised to serve as cancer cells of origin. In the epidermis, hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs) cycle through stages of quiescence (telogen) and proliferation (anagen) to drive hair growth. Within the hair follicle, HFSCs are capable of initiating squamous cell carcinoma, yet it is unclear how the hair cycle contributes to tumorigenesis. The data presented here show that HFSCs are unable to initiate tumors during the quiescent phase of the hair cycle, indicating that the mechanisms that keep HFSCs dormant are dominant to gain of oncogenes (Ras) or loss of tumor suppressors (p53). Instead, prolonged oncogenic stimuli only exert their effects when HFSC quiescence mechanisms are removed by normal HFSC activation. Furthermore, Pten activity is necessary for quiescence based tumor suppression, since Pten deletion alleviates this stem cell specific ability without affecting proliferation per se. Small RNAs were cloned from Trizol-lysed cells sorted from mouse skin and sequenced with the Illumina HiSeq2000.

Project description:Tight immune defense against environment and a unique ability of self-repair are the hallmarks of epithelia. Here we show that innate immunity Toll like receptor 2 (TLR2) coordinates these key functions thereby promoting hair growth and tissue regeneration. TLR2 is enriched in hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs) and its levels change in hair cycle and skin disorders. The lack of TLR2 in HFSCs diminishes activation and proliferation of HFSCs markedly prolonging the resting phase of hair cycle. Transcriptome profiling of HFSCs revealed that TLR2 regulates main hair regeneration pathways. TLR2 deletion upregulates inhibitory BMP7 signaling, while the blockade by Noggin restores deficient HFSCs proliferation in the absence of TLR2. In injury model TLR2 is required for both, tissue and hair regeneration. While endothelial TLR2 drives wound revascularization and closure, HFSC TLR2 controls hair regrowth. Endogenous TLR2 ligand produced in hair follicles promotes hair regeneration and growth via HFSC TLR2. Together, HFSC TLR2 drives stem cell proliferation, hair cycle and regeneration.

Project description:Mouse hair follicles undergo synchronized cycles. Cyclical regeneration and hair growth is fueled by hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs). We used ChIP-seq to unfold genome-wide chromatin landscapes of Nfatc1 and dissect the biological relevence of its upstream BMP signaling in HFSC aging. Telogen quiescent hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs) were FACS-purified for ChIP-sequcencing.

Project description:Neural stem cells, located in discrete niches in the adult brain, generate new neurons throughout life. These stem cells are specialized astrocytes, but astrocytes in other brain regions (parenchymal astrocytes) do not generate neurons under physiological conditions. After stroke, however, astrocytes in the mouse striatum undergo neurogenesis, triggered by decreased Notch signaling. Notch signaling can be experimentally depleted in mice by deleting the Notch-mediating transcription factor Rbpj. This dataset consists of single-cell RNA sequencing data of astrocytes isolated from the striatum (where astrocytes undergo neurogenesis in response to Rbpj deletion) or somatosensory cortex (where astrocytes don't complete neurogenesis in response to Rbpj deletion) of 4 mice. Cells were isolated from Cx30-CreER; R26-tdTomato; Rbpj(fl/fl) mice at three time points after tamoxifen-induced Rbpj deletion (2, 4, 8 weeks), and from Cx30-CreER; R26-tdTomato mice with intact Rbpj 3 days after tamoxifen. These time points span the transition from astrocyte through transit-amplifying cells to neuroblasts. The dataset contains 1) astrocytes from the striatum that initiate a neurogenic transcriptional program in response to Rbpj deletion and generate transit-amplifying cells and neuroblasts, and 2) astrocytes from the somatosensory cortex that initiate a neurogenic program in response to Rbpj deletion but fail to generate transit-amplifying cells or neuroblasts.

Project description:In some organs, adult stem cells are uniquely poised to serve as cancer cells of origin1-4. It is unclear, however, whether tumorigenesis is influenced by the activation state of the adult stem cell. Hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs) act as cancer cells of origin for cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and undergo defined cycles of quiescence and activation. The data presented here show that HFSCs are unable to initiate tumors during the quiescent phase of the hair cycle, indicating that the mechanisms that keep HFSCs dormant are dominant to the gain of oncogenes (Ras) or the loss of tumor suppressors (p53). Furthermore, Pten activity is necessary for quiescence based tumor suppression, as its deletion alleviates tumor suppression without affecting proliferation. These data demonstrate that stem cell quiescence is a form of tumor suppression in HFSCs, and that Pten plays a role in maintaining quiescence in the presence of tumorigenic stimuli. This experiment includes RNA profiling of hair follicle stem cells at various stages of tumorigenesis Briefly: HFSCs were lineage traced with YFP allele, FACS isolated from various genotypes, and then profiled by Affymetrix microarray Cell Isolation and FACS: Whole dorsal and ventral mouse K15-CrePR; LSLYFP, K15-CrePR; KrasG12D; LSLYFP and K15-CrePR; KrasG12D; Ptenff; LSLYFP was extracted, diced and digested with collagenase (20mg/ml) for 2 hours at 37C, then an equal volume of .25% trypsin was added and digestion continued for an additional hour at 37C. Digested tissue was mechanically dispersed via pipette and filtered with a 100uM cell strainer, collected at 300g and washed twice with PBS. The cells were then filtered through a 40uM cell strainer and FACS processed. YFP+ and YFP- cell populations were collected in RNA lysis buffer (Stratagene) and stored at -80C. Gene expression profiling Microarray analyses by GeneSpring software were performed

Project description:Mouse hair follicles undergo synchronized cycles. Cyclical regeneration and hair growth is fueled by hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs). HFSCs regenerate hair in response to canonical Wnt signalling. We used RNA-seq to unfold genome-wide chromatin landscapes of β-catenin within the native HFSC-niche.

Project description:Hair loss is one of the typical aging phenotypes in mammals, yet the underlying mechanism(s) is unclear. Here we report that hair follicle stem cell (HFSC) aging causes the stepwise miniaturization of hair follicles and eventual hair loss both in wild-type mice and in humans. In vivo fate analysis of HFSCs revealed that the DNA damage response in HFSCs causes proteolysis of Type XVII Collagen (COL17A1/BP180) to trigger “HFSC aging”, characterized by their loss of stemness signature and epidermal commitment. Those aged HFSCs are cyclically eliminated from the skin through their terminal epidermal differentiation, thereby causing hair follicle miniaturization. That process can be recapitulated by Col17a1 deficiency and prevented by forced maintenance of COL17A1 in HFSCs, demonstrating that stem cell homeostasis is the keystone against ultimate execution of the tissue/organ aging program.
