Mouse polycomb group gene Cbx2 promotes osteoblastic but suppresses adipogenic differentiation in postnatal long bones

ABSTRACT: A set of key developmental genes is essential for skeletal growth from multipotent progenitor cells at weaning. Polycomb group proteins, which regulate such genes contributes to the cell lineage commitment and subsequent differentiation via epigenetic chromatin modification and remodeling. However, it is unclear which cell lineage and gene sets are targeted by polycomb proteins during skeletal growth. We now report that mice deficient in a polycomb group gene Cbx2 (cterm/cterm) exhibited skeletal hypoplasia in the tibia, femur, and cranium. Long bone cavities in these mice contained fewer multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells. RNA-sequencing of bone marrow cells showed downregulation and upregulation of osteoblastic and adipogenic genes, respectively. Furthermore, the expression levels of genes specifically expressed in B-cell precursors were decreased. Forced expression of Cbx2 in Cbx2 (cterm/cterm) bone marrow stromal cell recovered fibroblastic colony formation and suppressed adipogenic differentiation. Collectively, our results suggest that Cbx2 controls the maintenance and adipogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stromal cells in the bone marrow.

The HDAC inhibitor SAHA regulates CBX2 stability via a SUMO-triggered ubiquitin-mediated pathway in leukemia

Project description:Leukemias are characterized by bone marrow failure due to oncogenic mutations of hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) or blood precursor cells. HSC differentiation and self-renewal properties are tightly regulated by Polycomb group (PcG) proteins, a well-characterized family of transcriptional epigenetic regulators. PcG proteins form two canonical complexes: Polycomb repressive complex 1 (PRC1), and Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2).CBX proteins link the activity of PRC1 with PRC2, serving as critical regulators of PcG-mediating activity. While the functional role of some CBX proteins in cancer has been largely explored, recent reports support the specific role of CBX2 in human tumors, thus it represent a promising new target for anti-cancer strategies. To date, chromodomain inhibitors have been identified for CBX7 , but no molecules inhibiting CBX2 have been described. Nevertheless, different chromatin-modulating drugs such as histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) are reported to regulate CBX2 targets on chromatin, suggesting that HDACi might be used to indirectly modulate aberrant effects of CBX2 in cancer. We describe a novel SAHA-mediated mechanism of CBX2 post-translational regulation. We found that CBX2 undergoes SAHA-induced SUMO2/3 modification and that CBX2 SUMOylation promotes its ubiquitination and proteasome-dependent degradation. We also identified the specific molecular pathway and key players regulating CBX2 stability, demonstrating that CBX4 and RNF4 act as the E3 SUMO and E3 ubiquitin ligase, respectively. Additionally, CBX2-depleted leukemic cells display impaired proliferation, showing that CBX2 is required for leukemia cell clonogenicity. Our study provides the first evidence of a non-canonical SAHA-mediated anti-tumorigenic activity via CBX2 SUMOylation and degradation

Expression profiling of mouse bone marrow skeletal progenitors with osteogenic and adipogenic potential and adipogenic progenitors treated with IFNγ.

Project description:Bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) were isolated from the femora and tibiae of irtTA-GBD*-TAg transgenic mice. Using cellular cloning we established skeletal progenitors with unipotent osteogenic and adipogenic properties. Previous RNA-seq analysis of more progenitor types revealed differential expression in members of the Interferon-gamma (IFNγ) signaling pathway. Treatment of adipogenic progenitors with IFNγ inhibited adipogenesis and promoted osteogenesis. RNA-seq analysis of osteogenic, adipogenic and IFNγ treated adipogenic clones revealed factors controlling the osteogenic versus adipogenic commitment of bone marrow skeletal progenitors.

Cell type-specific role of CBX2-cPRC1 at the onset of spermatogonial differentiation [scRNA-Seq]

Project description:Polycomb group (PcG) proteins maintain the repressed state of lineage-inappropriate genes and are therefore essential for embryonic development and adult tissue homeostasis. One critical function of PcG complexes is modulating chromatin structure. Canonical Polycomb repressive complex 1 (cPRC1), particularly its component CBX2, can compact chromatin and phase separate in vitro. These activities are hypothesized to be critical for forming a repressed physical environment in cells. While much has been learned by studying these PcG activities in cell culture models, it is largely unexplored how cPRC1 regulates adult stem cells and their subsequent differentiation during tissue homeostasis in living animals. Here we show that CBX2 is upregulated as spermatogonial stem cells differentiate and is required in the differentiating spermatogonia of the male germ line. CBX2 forms condensates, similar to previously described Polycomb-bodies, that co-localize with target genes that are repressed in differentiating spermatogonia. Single cell analyses of mosaic Cbx2 mutant testes show CBX2 is specifically required to produce differentiating, A1 spermatogonia. Furthermore, the domain of CBX2 responsible for compaction and phase separation is needed for the long-term maintenance of male germ cells in the animal. These results emphasize that the regulation of chromatin structure by CBX2 at a specific stage of spermatogenesis is critical for the continued production of sperm and, ultimately, the transmission of genetic material to the next generation.

Expression profiling of clonally derived skeletal progenitors from mouse bone marrow

Project description:Bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) were isolated from the femora and tibiae of irtTA-GBD*-TAg transgenic mice. Using cellular cloning we established skeletal progenitors with distinct differentiation properties and analysed their transcriptome. Unipotent osteogenic and adipogenic cells expressed specific transcriptional programs whereas bipotent clones combined expression of those genes and did not show a unique signature.

Extracellular vesicles from osteogenic differentiated human BMSCs

Project description:Pathological processes like osteoporosis or steroid-induced osteonecrosis of the hip are accompanied by increased bone marrow adipogenesis. Such disorder of adipogenic/osteogenic differentiation, which affects also bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) contributes to bone loss during aging. Therefore, we investigated the effects of extracellular vesicles (EVs) isolated from human (h)BMSCs during different stages of osteogenic differentiation on osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation capacity of naïve hBMSCs.

Loss of CBX2 induces genome instability and senescence-associated chromosomal rearrangements

Project description:Polycomb group proteins play important roles in developmental and cell proliferation processes. We demonstrate that the PRC1 protein CBX2 is critical for heterochromatin homeostasis, chromosome stability and the prevention of premature cellular senescence. Purpose: Use of Next-generation sequencing (NGS) to assess transcriptional (RNAseq) profiles and changes in chromatin accessibility in WT and Cbx2-/- fibroblasts prior to the onset of premature senescence.
