Project description:Throughout the various stages of tooth development, reciprocal epithelial-mesenchymal interactions are the driving force, for instance crucially involved in the differentiation of mature enamel-forming ameloblasts and dentin-producing odontoblasts. Here we established mouse tooth ‘assembloids’, comprised of tooth organoid-derived dental epithelial cells (from mouse molars and incisors) cultured together with molar dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs), to mimic these developmental interactions. Assembloids from both tooth types were grown both in basal- and differentiation-inducing conditions. Single cell transcriptomics analysis was applied to in detail characterize and validate the newly developed mouse tooth assembloid model and evaluate the induced differentiation processes.

Project description:Knowledge on tooth epithelial stem cells and corresponding biology in humans is sparse. Here, we developed an organoid model, typically replicating epithelial tissue stem cell biology, starting from human tooth. Dental follicle (DF), isolated from extracted wisdom teeth, efficiently generated long-term expandable epithelial organoids. The organoids displayed a tooth stemness phenotype as present in DF’s Epithelial Cell Rests of Malassez, a compartment deemed to contain tooth epithelial stem cells. To further decode the organoids in more granular detail, we applied scRNA-seq analysis on DF-derived organoids (passage 1 (P1) and P4) together with their primary tissue. Additionally, to decipher the amelogenesis-resembling process that takes place in the tooth organoids upon differentiation, we performed scRNA-seq analysis of P4 organoids switched to mineralization-inducing medium for 8 days.

Project description:We report the targeted analysis of the human dental pulp stroma and the odontoblast layer using the positional proteomics technique TAILS N-terminomics, which allowed us to capture both naturally blocked and unblocked protein N-termini, and to identify differences between e.g. the dental pulp proteomes of older and younger donors. Noteworthy, these differences were most pronounced in the odontoblast region. Note: This study is a follow-up on PXD002264.

Project description:The miniature pig is diphyodont, making it a valuable alternative model for understanding human tooth development and replacement. However, little is known about gene expression and function during swine odontogenesis. The goal of this study is to undertake the survey of differential gene expression profiling with Affymetrix Porcine GeneChip and functional network analysis during morphogenesis of diphyodont dentition in miniature pigs. The identification of genes related to diphyodont development should lead to a better understanding of morphogenetic patterns and the mechanisms of diphyodont replacement in large animal models and humans. The staged miniature pig embryos and fetuses were obtained by cesarean section at E40, E50, and E60. The last deciduous molar germs, including the dental lamina in mandibles from the same litter were isolated and pooled. The gestational age of embryos used in our study just cover 3 characteristic stages: Dm3 in cap stage without secondary dental lamina (E40); Dm3 in bell stage with secondary dental lamina initiation (E50); Dm3 in secretory stage without evidence of morphological changes in the secondary dental lamina.

Project description:Neurodegenerative disorders are an increasingly common and irreversible burden on society, often affecting the ageing population, but their aetiology and disease mechanisms are poorly understood. Studying monogenic neurodegenerative diseases, with known genetic cause, provides an opportunity to understand cellular mechanisms also affected in more complex disorders. We recently reported that loss-of-function mutations in the autophagy adaptor protein, SQSTM1/p62, lead to a slowly progressive neurodegenerative disease presenting in childhood. To further elucidate the neuronal involvement, we studied the cellular consequences of loss of p62 in a neuroepithelial stem (NES) cell model and differentiated neurones, derived from reprogrammed p62 patient cells, or by CRISPR/Cas9-directed gene editing in NES cells. Transcriptomic and proteomic analyses suggest that p62 is essential for neuronal differentiation by controlling the metabolic shift from aerobic glycolysis to oxidative phosphorylation required for neuronal maturation. This shift is blocked by the failure to sufficiently downregulate lactate dehydrogenase expression due to the loss of p62, possibly through impaired Hif-1α downregulation and increased sensitivity to oxidative stress. The findings implicate an important role for p62 in neuronal energy metabolism and particularly in the regulation of the shift between glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation, required for normal neurodifferentiation.

Project description:To understand the human placenta development, we investigated the features of two trophoblast models, trophoblast organoids and trophoblast stem cells, with the aim of identifying which type of trophoblast in vivo they most closely resemble. To this end, we profiled the microRNAs from the two models by using the Bioo Nextflex protocol (NEXTFLEX Small RNA-seq Kit v3 for Illumina Platforms).

Project description:Combining genome-wide microarray and functional analyses, we found that EGFR activation abrogates barrier function, increasing transepidermal water loss (TEWL) and transepithelial permeability of water-soluble ions and higher molecular weight dextrans, in part by disrupting the expression of tight junction proteins. EGF decreases certain lipid matrix free fatty acids and ceramides by its actions to repress the expression of specific biosynthetic enzymes. Activation of EGFR inhibits cornified envelope formation by regulating the expression of 59 percent of the known contributing genes. EGF-responsiveness enriches more than 100 genes known to be associated with skin diseases. These data are used to obtain 2,676 density-dependent genes that are differentially expressed in response to EGF treatment. The 16 microarrays were preprocessed using the 5th percentile of region method in dChip. Genes with at least a 1.5 fold difference between the untrated samples at 50% and 100% confluent cell density were exported for further analysis. Two-way ANOVA was used to identify differentially expressed genes by either density or treatment factors using JMP Genomics 4.1 (SAS). Multiple hypothesis testing was corrected by Benjamini-Hochberg false discovery rate control at the 0.05 level. Pair-wise comparisons were performed using the TukeyM-bM-^@M-^Ys Honestly Significant Difference test.

Project description:Ankrd11 is a potential chromatin regulator implicated in neural development and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) with no known function in the brain. Here, we show that knockdown of Ankrd11 in developing murine or human cortical neural precursors caused decreased proliferation, reduced neurogenesis, and aberrant neuronal positioning. Similar cellular phenotypes and aberrant ASD-like behaviors were observed in Yoda mice carrying a point mutation in the Ankrd11 HDAC-binding domain. Consistent with a role for Ankrd11 in histone acetylation, Ankrd11 was associated with chromatin, colocalized with HDAC3, and expression and histone acetylation of Ankrd11 target genes were altered in Yoda neural precursors. Moreover, the Ankrd11 knockdown-mediated decrease in precursor proliferation was rescued by inhibiting histone acetyltransferase activity or expressing HDAC3. Thus, Ankrd11 is a crucial epigenetic regulator of neural development that controls histone acetylation and gene expression, thereby providing a likely explanation for its association with cognitive dysfunction and ASD. We used microarrays to compare the gene expression profile in embryonic neurospheres prepared from neocortices of WT and Ankrd11Yod/+ mice E14.5 cortical secondary neurosheres 5 days post-passage were collected and total RNA extracted. cDNA was hybridized on Affymetrix Mouse Gene 2.0 ST Array and gene expression was analyzed using Parterk software. In total, 6 Ankrd11Yod/+ and 5 WT embryos were used.

Project description:Background<br>Primitive brain tumors are the first cause of cancer-related death in children. Tumor cells with stem-like properties (TSCs), thought to account for tumorigenesis and therapeutic resistance, have been isolated from high-grade gliomas in adults. Whether TSCs are a common component of pediatric brain tumors and are of clinical relevance remains to be determined. <br>Methodology/Principal findings<br>Tumor cells with self-renewal properties were isolated with cell biology techniques from a majority of 55 pediatric brain tumors samples, regardless of their histopathologies and grades of malignancy (57% of embryonal tumors, 57% of low-grade gliomas and neuro-glial tumors, 70% of ependymomas, 91% of high-grade gliomas). The vast majority (10/12) of high-grade glioma-derived oncospheres sustained long-term self-renewal numbers akin to neural stem cells (>7 self-renewals), whereas cells with limited renewing abilities akin to neural progenitors dominated in all other tumor types. Regardless of tumor entities, the young age group was associated with self-renewal properties akin to neural stem cells (P=0.05, chi-square test). TSCs shared a complex molecular profile combining embryonic stem cell markers with elements controlling neural stem cell properties and epithelio-mesenchymal transitions. They were radio- and chemoresistant and formed aggressive tumors after intracerebral grafting. Survival analysis of the cohort showed an association between isolation of TSCs with long-term self-renewal abilities and a patientM-^Rs higher mortality rate (P = 0.022, log-rank test). Patients bearing cells with limited self-renewal properties constituted an intermediate group of survival but which did not reach statistical significance. <br>Conclusions/Significance<br>In brain tumors affecting adult patients, TSC have been isolated only from high-grade gliomas. In contrast, our data show that tumor cells with stem cell-like or progenitor-like properties can be isolated from a wide range of histological sub-types and grades of pediatric brain tumors. They suggest that cellular mechanisms fueling tumor development differ between adult and pediatric brain tumors.<br>
