Profiling proliferative cells and their progeny in damaged murine hearts

ABSTRACT: The significance of cardiac stem cell (CSC) populations for cardiac regeneration remains disputed. Here, we apply the most direct definition of stem cell function (the ability to replace lost tissue through cell division) to interrogate the existence of CSCs. By single-cell mRNA sequencing and genetic lineage tracing using two Ki67 knockin mouse models, we map all proliferating cells and their progeny in homoeostatic and regenerating murine hearts. Cycling cardiomyocytes were only robustly observed in the early postnatal growth phase, while cycling cells in homoeostatic and damaged adult myocardium represented various noncardiomyocyte cell types. Proliferative postdamage fibroblasts expressing follistatin-like protein 1 (FSTL1) closely resemble neonatal cardiac fibroblasts and form the fibrotic scar. Genetic deletion of Fstl1 in cardiac fibroblasts results in postdamage cardiac rupture. We find no evidence for the existence of a quiescent CSC population, for transdifferentiation of other cell types toward cardiomyocytes, or for proliferation of significant numbers of cardiomyocytes in response to cardiac injury.

Single-cell Transcriptome analysis reveals cellular heterogeneity and highlights Fstl1-regulated alveolar myofibroblasts in mouse lung at birth

Project description:The matricellular protein follistatin-like 1 (FSTL1) regulates lung development and saccular formation. Here, we employed single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) to construct a transcriptomic atlas of 22,774 individual cells in wild-type (WT) and Fstl1–/– lung (E18.5) samples and identified 27 cell subtypes. We reveal abnormal population sizes and gene expression profiles in diverse cell subtypes in Fstl1–/– lung samples. We identify Pdgfra and Tgfbi as genetic markers specifically expressed in postnatal myofibroblasts (MyoFBs). Fstl1 deletion decreases the number of MyoFB cells and downregulates their roles in ECM organization and muscle tissue/vasculature development, in part, through the TGF-β1/BMP4 signaling pathway. Our data provide a single-cell view of the cellular heterogeneity and the molecular mechanisms underlying abnormal saccular formation and atelectatic lungs in Fstl1–/– mice.

Expression data from Chinese renal cell carcinoma cells with FSTL1 knocked down

Project description:Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), the major histotype of cancer derived from kidney, is lack of robust prognostic and/or predictive biomarker and powerful therapeutic target. We previously identified that follistatin-like protein 1 (FSTL1) was significantly down-regulated in ccRCC at the transcription level. In the present study, we characterized, for the first time, that FSTL1 immunostaining was selectively positive in the cytoplasm of distal convoluted tubules. The expression of FSTL1 was significantly lower in ccRCC tissues than in adjacent renal tissues (P<0.001), as measured using immunohistochemistry in 69 patients with paired specimens, and lower in most ccRCC cell lines than in human embryonic kidney cells, as measured by quantitative RT-PCR. Multivariate Cox regression analysis in 89 patients with follow-up data showed that FSTL1 expression in tumors conferred a favorable postoperative prognosis independently, with a hazard ratio of 0.325 (95% confidence interval: 0.118-0.894). FSTL1 knockdown promoted anchorage independent growth, mobility, and invasion of ccRCC cell lines and promoted cell cycle from G0/G1 phases into S phase; while over-expression of FSTL1 significantly attenuated cell migration ability in ACHN cells. FSTL1 knockdown resulted in decreased expression of E-cadherin and increased expression of N-cadherin in ccRCC cell lines significantly, indicating that FSTL1 may attenuate epithelial to mesenchymal transition in ccRCC. Microarray assay indicated that NF-ÎºB and HIF-2Î± pathways were activated following FSTL1 knockdown in ccRCC cells. Our study indicates that FSTL1 serves as a tumor suppressor in ccRCC, up-regulation of FSTL1 in cancer cells may be a candidate target therapy for advanced ccRCC. RNA samples were collected from NRCC-shsiscramble, NRCC-shFSTL1-1 and NRCC-shFSTL1-2 cells. Then samples were hybridized to Affymetrix arrays for mRNA profiling.

Metabolic crosstalk between skeletal muscle cells and liver through IRF4-FSTL1 in nonalcoholic steatohepatitis

Project description:Inter-organ crosstalk has gained more and more attention recently. However, the mechanisms under this remain incompletely understood. Here, we revealed an endocrine pathway regulated by skeletal muscle IRF4 that manipulates liver pathology. We studied that skeletal muscle specifically deleted IRF4 (F4MKO) mice showed ameliorated liver steatosis, inflammation and fibrosis, without changes in body weight on NASH diet. Proteomics analysis of serum suggested that follistatin-like protein 1 (FSTL1), as a myokine, might linked the communication between skeletal muscle and liver. Dual luciferase assays showed that IRF4 can transcriptionally regulated FSTL1 and reconstitution of FSTL1 expression in skeletal muscle of F4MKO mice, using adeno-associated virus, was sufficient to restore the liver pathology. Furthermore, we performed co-culture experiments to verify different receptors contribute to FSTL1’s function in different cell types of liver. Finally, we found serum FSTL1 level was positively correlated with NASH progression in human, whereas the mRNA level of Fstl1 and its receptors were downregulated in liver biopsy from NASH patients. These data reveal a signaling pathway from skeletal muscle to liver via IRF4-FSTL1-receptors in the pathogenesis of NASH and implicate useful targets for the management of NASH.

Gene expression in mouse embyonic cardiomyocytes, fibroblasts and adult cardiac fibroblasts

Project description:Growth and expansion of ventricular chambers is essential during cardiogenesis and is achieved by proliferation of cardiac progenitors that are not fully differentiated. Disruption of this process can lead to prenatal lethality. In contrast, adult cardiomyocytes achieve growth through hypertrophy rather than hyperplasia. Although epicardial-derived signals may contribute to the proliferative process in myocytes, the factors and cell types responsible for development of the ventricular myocardial thickness are unclear. Moreover, the function of embryonic cardiac fibroblasts, derived from epicardium, and their secreted factors are largely unknown. Using a novel co-culture system, we found that embryonic cardiac fibroblasts induced proliferation of cardiomyocytes, in contrast to adult cardiac fibroblasts that promoted myocyte hypertrophy. We identified fibronectin, collagen and heparin-binding EGF-like growth factor as embryonic cardiac fibroblast-specific signals that collaboratively promoted cardiomyocyte proliferation in a paracrine fashion. b1 integrin was required for this proliferative response, and ventricular cardiomyocyte-specific deletion of b1 integrin in mice resulted in reduced myocardial proliferation and impaired ventricular compaction. These findings reveal a previously unrecognized paracrine function of embryonic cardiac fibroblasts in regulating cardiomyocyte proliferation. To identify candidate fibroblast-derived factors that promote myocyte proliferation, we isolated RNA from Nkx-YFP+ cardiomyocytes, embryonic cardiac fibroblasts, and adult cardiac fibroblasts and profiled mRNA expressions by microarray analyses. Arrays were performed using Affymetrix mouse Gene 1.0 ST arrays. Analysis was performed on three biological replicates of mouse embyonic cardiomyocytes, fibroblasts and adult cardiac fibroblasts.

Metabolic crosstalk between skeletal muscle cells and liver through IRF4-FSTL1 in 2 nonalcoholic steatohepatitis

Project description:In this study Guo et al. revealed an endocrine pathway regulated by skeletal muscle IRF4 that manipulates liver pathology. Mice with skeletal muscle specific ablation of IRF4 show ameliorated liver steatosis, inflammation, and fibrosis, without changes in body weight on nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) diet. Proteomics analysis of mouse serum suggested that follistatin-like protein 1 (FSTL1) might link the communication between muscle and liver. Dual luciferase assays showed that IRF4 could transcriptionally regulate FSTL1 and reconstitution of FSTL1 expression in muscle of F4MKO mice was sufficient to restore the liver pathology. Furthermore, co-culture experiments verified that FSTL1 exerts its function in hepatocyte, macrophage, and hepatic satellite cells through CD14 and DIP2A, CD14, DIP2A, respectively. In human, serum FSTL1 is increased in NASH patients, but the mRNA level of Fstl1 and its receptors are decreased in NASH liver biopsy, suggesting the increased serum FSTL1 is from skeletal muscle as studied in F4MKO mice. These data unveiled a signaling pathway from skeletal muscle to liver via IRF4-FSTL1-DIP2A/CD14 in the pathogenesis of NASH.

Cell Reprogramming experiment (reprogramming cardiac fibroblasts into cardiomyocytes)

Project description:Cells were reprogrammed from cardiac fibroblasts to cardiomyocytes, in various conditions. These are the iCM cells (induced cardiomyocytes). There are both human and mouse arrays here, as seen below. Microarrays were used to measure the overall degree to which cellular repogramming was successful, by comparing the reprogrammed cells to reference populations of cardiomyocytes (CMs) and cardiac fibroblasts (CFs).
