Precardiac Organoids Form Two Heart Fields via Bmp/Wnt Signaling

ABSTRACT: The discovery of the first heart field (FHF) and the second heart field (SHF) led us to understand how cardiac lineages and structures arise during development. However, it remains unknown how they are specified. Here, we generate precardiac spheroids with pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) harboring GFP/RFP reporters under the control of FHF/SHF markers, respectively. GFP+ cells and RFP+ cells appear from two distinct areas and develop in a complementary fashion. Transcriptome analysis shows a high degree of similarities with embryonic FHF/SHF cells. Bmp and Wnt are among the most differentially regulated pathways, and gain- and loss-of-function studies reveal that Bmp specifies GFP+ cells and RFP+ cells via the Bmp/Smad pathway and Wnt signaling, respectively. FHF/SHF cells can be isolated without reporters by the surface protein Cxcr4. This study provides novel insights into understanding the specification of two cardiac origins, which can be leveraged for PSC-based modeling of heart field/chamber-specific disease.

Expression analysis of genes regulated by RBPJ (Notch) and Axin2 (Wnt) mediated signaling in mouse cardiogenesis at E9.25

Project description:Progenitor cells of the first and second heart fields (FHF and SHF) depend on cardiac-specific transcription factors for their differentiation. In mouse mutant embryos, we define the hierarchy of signaling events that controls the expression of cardiac-specific transcription factors during commitment of SHF progenitors at E9.25. Wnt and Bmp act downstream of Notch/RBPJ at this developmental stage. Mutation of Axin2, the negative regulator of canonical Wnt signaling, enhances Wnt and Bmp signals and suffices to rescue the cardiac differentiation arrest caused by loss of RBPJ. By analysis of isolated cardiac progenitors, embryo cultures in the presence of pharmacological inhibitors, and Bmp triple mutants, we could classify the expression of heart-specific transcription factors of SHF progenitors according to their dependence on either Wnt or Bmp signals, Nkx2-5, Isl1, Baf60c and Gata4, SRF, Mef2c, respectively. Total RNA from whole embryonic hearts of control mice was compared to MesP1-cre:RBPJlox/lox (KO), MesP1-cre:RBPJlox/lox//Axin2-/- (DKO), MesP1-cre:RBPJlox/+//Axin2-/- (hetDKO) and MesP1-cre:RBPJlox/lox//Axin2+/- (DKOhet) mutant mouse embryos.

Early lineage restriction and regional segregation during mammalian heart development

Project description:Cardiac development arises from two sources of mesoderm progenitors, the first (FHF) and the second heart field (SHF). Mesp1 has been proposed to mark the most primitive multipotent cardiac progenitors common for both heart fields. Here, using clonal analysis of the earliest prospective cardiovascular progenitors in a temporally controlled manner during the early gastrulation, we found that Mesp1 progenitors consist of two temporally distinct pools of progenitors restricted to either the FHF or the SHF. FHF progenitors were unipotent, while SHF progenitors, were either uni- or bipotent. Microarray and single cell RT-PCR analysis of Mesp1 progenitors revealed the existence of molecularly distinct populations of Mesp1 progenitors, consistent with their lineage and regional contribution. Altogether, these results provide evidence that heart development arises from distinct populations of unipotent and bipotent cardiac progenitors that independently express Mesp1 at different time points during their specification, revealing that the regional segregation and lineage restriction of cardiac progenitors occurs very early during gastrulation. We used microarrays to characterize the molecular mechanisms that control Mesp1 progenitor specification and lineage segregation during the early stage of cardiac mesoderm formation, 50 Mesp1 H2B-GFP+ or Mesp1 H2B-GFP- cells at E6.5 or E7.5 from mouse embryos were sorted for RNA extraction, amplification and hybridization on Affimetrix microarrays. Microaarrays were performed on Mouse Genome 430 PM strip Affymetrix array. The overall design was repeated in two different biological samples.

Expression data from murine embryonic stem cell derived cardiac progenitors

Project description:Mamamlian cardiogenesis occurs through the development of discreate populations of first and second heart field progenitors. We have used a dual transgenic color reproter system to isolate purified populations of these progenitors. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression underlying cardiac development in mouse All four populations of cells are derived from embryonic stem cells differentiating in vitro (day 6 of in vitro differentaition). The stem cell line has two transgenic reporters as follows: 1. The second heart field (SHF) specific reporter of the Mef2C gene (E. Dodou, S. M. Xu, B. L. Black, Mech Dev 120, 1021 (Sep, 2003)) driving the expression of dsRed 2. The cardiac specific enhancer ( C. L. Lien et al., Development 126, 75 (Jan, 1999)) driving the expression of eGFP. Thus, the red cells are SHF specific, the green cells are cardiac specific, and the red/green are SHF and cardiac specific. These cells are compared to the double negative cells which serve as a control.

Global gene expression changes in E9.5 cardiopharyngeal mesoderm (CPM) of Chd7 mutants versus controls

Project description:To investigate the role of Chd7 in the CPM we performed RNA-seq on two microdissections from Mesp1-Cre; Chd7 fl/fl (referred to as cKO) and control (Mesp1-Cre) embryos. The first involved the distal pharyngeal apparatus, i.e. arches two through six including the dorsal pericardial wall (DPW) which encompasses the SHF before these cells migrate to the poles of heart. For simplicity we refer to this dissection as “SHF” (we use inverted commas in this denotation to recognise the presence of other cell types). The second microdissection included the cells that have entered the heart (i.e. SHF-derived outflow tract (OFT), right ventricle (RV) and parts of the atrium, and FHF-derived left ventricle and atria). The OFT and heart tissue was collected from the same embryos (labelled “HEART”).

RNA-seq of wild-type and PGR (progesterone receptor) knockout pluripotent mouse EpiSCs (epiblast stem cells) and differentiated samples derived from these cell lines (primitive streak and mesoderm)

Project description:EpiSCs (epiblast stem cells) are murine pluripotent stem cells derived from the epiblast of a post-implantation embryo. These cells are primed to differentiate towards embryonic germ layers and are a useful model to study these early developmental events. PGR (progesterone receptor) is a nuclear receptor described mainly in the context of fertility and breast cancer. We noticed that it is also a TF that is expressed in primed EpiSCs, but not in naive mESCs and is further upregulated during mesoderm specification. We hypothesized that it is involved in differentiation to primitive streak and mesoderm progenitors. To test this hypothesis we generated EpiSCs with a genetic knockout of PGR using CRISPR-Cas9-mediated knock-in of an antibiotic resistance cassette. Differentiation of the wild-type and knockout cells and comparison of the different cell types allowed us to conclude that PGR is important for acquiring extraembryonic mesoderm fate and modulates cardiac differentiation, specifically it ensures that correct pools of FHF (first heart field) and SHF (second heart field) are being produced. Our study sheds light on previously unappreciated role of PGR in early embryonic development.

RNA-Sequencing analysis of control and SORBS2 knockdown cardiac progenitor cells derived from human stem cells in vitro

Project description:Chromosome 4q deletion syndrome is one of the most frequently detected genomic imbalance events in congenital heart disease (CHD) patients. However, a portion of terminal 4q deletions with CHD do not include known CHD genes. Here in a target sequencing of a panel of known and candidate CHD genes, we showed that the detrimental rare variants of SORBS2 in 4q35.1 are significantly enriched in CHD patients. Examination of Sorbs2-/- mouse hearts revealed two types of atrial septal defects (ASD), atrial hypoplasia/aplasia and double atrial septum. In vitro human cardiogenesis indicated a dual role of SORBS2 in maintaining sarcomeric integrity of cardiomyocytes and specifying the fate of cardiac progenitors. Mechanistically, SORBS2 promotes the commitment of the second heart field (SHF) over the first heart field (FHF) fate through c-ABL/NOTCH/SHH axis. Taken together, our data demonstrate that SORBS2 is a novel CHD gene within deleted 4q interval. The presence of double atrial septum in Sorbs2-/- mouse reveals the first molecular etiology of the rare anomaly linked to paradoxical thromboembolism.

Genome-wide reporter screen for transcriptional regulators of ribosome biogenesis genes and ribosomal protein genes

Project description:A genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9 knockout reporter screen was performed to identify transcriptional regulators of ribosomal biogenesis genes and ribosomal protein genes. The murine GeCKO v2 library provided by the Zhang lab was amplified and positive control sgRNAs targeting the reporters were spiked-in. NIH/3T3 cells (murine fibroblasts) harboring the "ribosome biogenesis" reporter Fbl-GFP (Fibrillarin promoter-driven enhanced GFP fused to the PEST domain of the murine ornithine decarboxylase) and the "ribosomal protein" reporter Rpl18-RFP (Rpl18 promoter-driven TurboRFP fused to the PEST domain of the murine ornithine decarboxylase) were transduced with the aforementioned library, selected and FACS-sorted six days after infection. The sorted conditions were i) low GFP, but middle to strong RFP expression (RiBi down); ii) low RFP, but middle to strong GFP expression (RP down); iii) low GFP and low RFP expression (Both down); iv) strong GFP and strong RFP expression (Both up). The same amount of cells that were used for sorting, were harvested as the "unsorted" condition to which all sorted samples were compared to. The plasmid library was also sequenced.
