Chromatin accessibility landscape upon induction of Msgn1, Pax3 and Myf5 in mesodermal cells and identification of conserved Pax3 binding sites and target genes during skeletal myogenesis

ABSTRACT: The transcriptional mechanisms driving lineage specification during development are still largely unknown as the interplay of multiple transcription factors makes it difficult to dissect these molecular events. Using a cell-based differentiation platform to probe transcription function, we investigated the role of the key paraxial mesoderm and skeletal myogenic commitment factors, Msgn1, Tbx6, Foxc1, Pax3, Paraxis, Meox1, Six1 and Myf5, in paraxial mesoderm and skeletal myogenesis. From this study, we define a genetic hierarchy, with Pax3 emerging as the gatekeeper between the presomitic mesoderm and the myogenic lineage. By assaying chromatin accessibility, genomic binding and transcription profiling in mesodermal cells from mouse and human Pax3-induced embryonic stem cells and Pax3-null E9.5 mouse embryos, we identified conserved Pax3 functions in the activation of the skeletal myogenic lineage through modulation of Hedgehog, Notch, and BMP signaling pathways. In addition, we demonstrate that Pax3 molecular function involves chromatin remodeling of its bound elements through an increase in chromatin accessibility and cooperation with Six4 and Tead2 factors. Together, our data provide the first integrated analysis of Pax3 function, demonstrating its ability to remodel chromatin in mesodermal cells from developing embryos and proving a mechanistic footing for the transcriptional hierarchy driving myogenesis.

Pax3 interactome in mouse ES cell-derived mesodermal precursors

Project description:The skeletal myogenic lineage in developing embryos is specified within the somites and requires members of the Paired box (Pax) family of transcription factors. In particular, Pax3 is the first member of this family expressed in the central region of the dermomyotome and it is necessary for specification, migration and survival of the myogenic progenitors that will form the muscles of the limbs, diaphragm and tongue. To investigate Pax3 molecular functions in the developing mesoderm, we generated doxycycline-inducible mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells expressing untagged and HaFlag-tagged-Pax3. These cell lines were used to unbiasedly identify its interacting partners by tandem affinity purification followed by mass spectrometry.

Pax3 cooperates with Ldb1 to direct local chromosome architecture during lineage specification

Project description:Chromatin looping allows enhancer-bound regulatory factors to influence transcription. Large domains, referred to as Topologically Associated Domains (TADs), participate in genome organization but the mechanisms underlining interactions within TADs, that actually control gene expression, are largely unknown. Here we report that activation of embryonic myogenesis is associated with establishment of long-range chromatin interactions centered on Pax3-bound loci. Using mass spectrometry and genomic studies, we identified the ubiquitously expressed LIM-domain binding protein 1 (Ldb1) as the mediator of looping interactions at a subset of Pax3 binding sites. Ldb1 is recruited to Pax3-bound elements independently of CTCF-Cohesin, and is necessary for efficient deposition of H3K4me1 at these sites and chromatin looping. When Ldb1 is deleted in Pax3-expressing cells in vivo, specification of migratory myogenic progenitors is severely impaired. These results highlight Ldb1 requirement for Pax3 myogenic activity and demonstrate how a transcription factor promotes formation of sub-TAD interactions associated with lineage specification.

overexpression/knockdown MEG3 in C2C12 cell lines

Project description:MEG3 was known as a growth suppressor in tumor cells by activating p53. Besides, MEG3 could regulate transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) signaling pathway, which is the key regulator of skeletal myogenesis and can enhance the proliferation of myogenic cells. Previous study also showed MEG3 was highly expressed in the paraxial mesoderm and probably regulated muscle development. To investigate the potential function of MEG3 in muscle development, we detected the expression levels of protein-coding genes after MEG3 over-expression or knockdown in C2C12 cell line using microarrays.

Gene expression profiling of CHIR99021-induced skeletal myogenesis in human pluripotent stem cells

Project description:Human pluripotent stem cell- (hPSC)-derived skeletal muscle progenitors (SMP)—defined as PAX7-expressing cells with myogenic potential—can provide an abundant source of donor material for muscle stem cell therapy owing to the near-infinite replication potential of PSCs. As in vitro myogenesis is decoupled from in vivo timing and the 3D-embryo structure, it remains difficult to definitively characterize what stage or type of muscle is modeled in culture. Here, gene expression profiling is analyzed in hPSCs over a 50 day skeletal myogenesis protocol and compared to gene expression datasets of other hPSC-derived skeletal muscle and adult murine satellite cells. Furthermore, day 2 cultures differentiated with high or lower concentrations of CHIR99021 were contrasted. Expression profiling of the 50 day time course identified successively expressed gene subsets involved in mesoderm/paraxial mesoderm induction, somitogenesis, and skeletal muscle commitment/formation which could be regulative by a putative cascade of transcription factors. Initiating differentiation with higher CHIR99021 concentrations resulted in significantly higher expression of MSGN1 and TGFB-superfamily genes, notably NODAL, resulting in enhanced paraxial mesoderm and reduced ectoderm/neuronal gene expression. Comparison to adult satellite cells revealed that genes expressed in day 50 cultures correlated better with those expressed by quiescent or early activated satellite cells, which have a greater therapeutic potential than late activated satellite cells. Day 50 cultures were similar to other hPSC-derived skeletal muscle and both expressed known and novel SMP surface proteins.

PAX3-FOXO1 establishes myogenic super enhancers [RMS Chip-seq]

Project description:The fusion transcription factor PAX3-FOXO1 drives oncogenesis in a subset of rhabdomyosarcomas, however the mechanisms by which it remodels chromatin are unknown. We find PAX3-FOXO1 reprograms the cis-regulatory landscape by inducing super enhancers (SEs), in collaboration with master transcription factors MYOG, MYOD and MYCN. This myogenic SE circuitry is consistent across cell lines and primary tumors. Deregulation of PAX3-FOXO1 itself occurs by translocation-induced chromatin loops bringing the PAX3 promoter under the control of FOXO1 enhancers. Protein targets induced by, or bound to, PAX3-FOXO1 occupied SEs, were selectively sensitive to small molecule inhibition. PAX3-FOXO1 co-binds BRD4 at SEs, and BET bromodomains are required for PAX3-FOXO1-dependent transcription and cancer cell growth.

Sall4 regulates posterior trunk mesoderm development by promoting mesodermal gene expression and repressing neural genes in the mesoderm

Project description:The trunk axial skeleton develops from paraxial mesoderm cells. Our recent study demonstrated that conditional knockout of the stem cell factor Sall4 in mice by TCre caused tail truncation and a disorganized axial skeleton posterior to the lumbar level. Based on this phenotype, we hypothesized that, in addition to the previously reported role of Sall4 in neuromesodermal progenitors, Sall4 is involved in the development of the paraxial mesoderm tissue. ATAC-seq in TCre; Sall4 mutant posterior trunk mesoderm shows that Sall4 knockout reduces chromatin accessibility. We found that Sall4- dependent open chromatin status drives activation and repression of WNT signaling activators and repressors, respectively, to promote WNT signaling. Moreover, footprinting analysis of ATAC-seq data suggests that Sall4-dependent chromatin accessibility facilitates CTCF binding, which contributes to the repression of neural genes within the mesoderm. This study unveils multiple mechanisms by which Sall4 regulates paraxial mesoderm development by directing activation of mesodermal genes and repression of neural genes.

Expression data of mESCs differentiated into Paraxial mesoderm

Project description:Stem cell-derived tissues have wide potential for modelling developmental and pathological processes as well as cell-based therapy. However, it has proven difficult to generate several key cell types in vitro, including skeletal muscle. In vertebrates, skeletal muscles derive during embryogenesis from the presomitic mesoderm (PSM). Using PSM development as a guide, we establish conditions for the differentiation of monolayer cultures of mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells into PSM-like cells without the introduction of transgenes or cell sorting. We differentiated mouse ESCs in serum-free medium supplemented with Rspo3 ( or as an alternative with Chir 9902) and the Bmp inhibitor LDN193189. In vivo, the PSM cells are first expressing Msgn1 (posterior PSM marker) and then mature to express Pax3 (anterior PSM marker). After 4 days of differentiation of mESCs, Msgn1-positive cells were FACS-sorted and their transcriptome analyzed. After 6 days of differentiation, Pax3-positive cells were sorted and their transcriptome analyzed. Mouse ESCs differentiated for 0, 4 and 6 days in serum-free medium containing a Wnt activator, a BMP inhibitor and DMSO, to study paraxial mesoderm in vitro
