Intestinal endocrine subtype specification analyzed by Single Cell RNA-Seq in mouse enteroids/mini-guts.

ABSTRACT: The goal of this experiment is to decipher the mechanism of intestinal endocrine / enteroendocrine subtype specification, that is far from being fully understood. To this end, we used single cell genomics in mouse mini-guts. Enteroendocrine cells are derived from endocrine progenitors expressing the transcription factor Ngn3. We took advantage of the Ngn3+/eYFP mouse model -where endocrine progenitors and their descendants can be isolated and sorted by FACS on the basis of the eYFP fluorescence- and established enteroids or mini-guts from the small intestine. Enteroids were dissociated and eYFP+ single cells were directly sorted in 96 wells of the Precise WTA Single Cell Encoding Plate (BD™ Precise WTA Single Cell Kit, BD Genomics). cDNA and libraries were prepared following the BD protocol. Sequencing (paired-end, 2x100b) was performed in a HiSeq 4000 (Illumina). The bioinformatic analysis allowed to identify 8 different groups of enteroendocrine cells with specific signatures. Overall design: Cells from Ngn3eYFP mice enteroids were sorted and captured. Their transcriptomes were analyzed by single-cell RNASeq.

Transcription profiling of mouse Ngn3 expressing cells and endocrine pancreatic cells from wild type and Ngn3 mutant animals at day 15 of embryonic development

Project description:The basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor Neurogenin3 (Ngn3/Neurog3) is expressed in endocrine progenitor cells in the embryonic mouse pancreas. Ngn3 controls endocrine cell fate decisions. Ngn3 deficient mice do not develop any pancreatic endocrine cells, including insulin producing beta cells, and die postnatally from diabetes. Therefore, the characterization of gene expression in Ngn3-expressing cells and their progeny is of particular interest for the development of novel strategies for cell replacement therapies in type-1 diabetes. Here we describe two studies. In the first study (8 assays) we used mice where the EYFP (Enhanced Yellow fluorescent Protein) is expressed under the control of Ngn3 regulatory elements (knock add on strategy). EYFP-positive, Ngn3-expressing cells, were FACS sorted from embryonic pancreas at day 15.5 (E15.5), as well as EYFP-negative cells. In the second study (6 assays) we compared wild-type and Ngn3 mutant pancreas at E15.5. All samples were hybridized to Affymetrix GeneChip Mouse Genome 430.2.0 array.

Transcriptional profiling of Ngn3-dependent pancreatic endocrine differentiation at E15.5

Project description:This experiment used RNA-Seq technology to explore gene expression in mouse Ngn3^GFP/+ [het] FACS sorted pancreatic cells at E15.5 (commited endocrine progenitor cells) and in Ngn3^GFP/GFP [null] at E15.5 (defective endocrine progenitor cells). This experiment is designed to understand the gene expression alteration in the endocrine lineage at different embryonic days. The aim is to understand both Ngn3 dependent and independent gene expression profiles so as to reveal the instructive signals that specfy the collective endocrine islet cell fate or specific islet cell type.

Arx is required for normal enteroendocrine cell development in mice and humans.

Project description:Enteroendocrine cells of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract play a central role in metabolism, digestion, satiety and lipid absorption, yet their development remains poorly understood. Here we show that Arx, a homeodomain-containing transcription factor, is required for the normal development of mouse and human enteroendocrine cells. Arx expression is detected in a subset of Neurogenin3 (Ngn3)-positive endocrine progenitors and is also found in a subset of hormone-producing cells. In mice, removal of Arx from the developing endoderm results in a decrease of enteroendocrine cell types including gastrin-, glucagon/GLP-1-, CCK-, secretin-producing cell populations and an increase of somatostatin-expressing cells. This phenotype is also observed in mice with endocrine-progenitor-specific Arx ablation suggesting that Arx is required in the progenitor for enteroendocrine cell development. In addition, depletion of human ARX in developing human intestinal tissue results in a profound deficit in expression of the enteroendocrine cell markers CCK, secretin and glucagon while expression of a pan-intestinal epithelial marker, CDX2, and other non-endocrine markers remained unchanged. Taken together, our findings uncover a novel and conserved role of Arx in mammalian endocrine cell development and provide a potential cause for the chronic diarrhea seen in both humans and mice carrying Arx mutations.

The novel enterochromaffin marker Lmx1a regulates serotonin biosynthesis in enteroendocrine cell lineages downstream of Nkx2.2.

Project description:Intestinal hormone-producing cells represent the largest endocrine system in the body, but remarkably little is known about enteroendocrine cell type specification in the embryo and adult. We analyzed stage- and cell type-specific deletions of Nkx2.2 and its functional domains in order to characterize its role in the development and maintenance of enteroendocrine cell lineages in the mouse duodenum and colon. Although Nkx2.2 regulates enteroendocrine cell specification in the duodenum at all stages examined, it controls the differentiation of progressively fewer enteroendocrine cell populations when deleted from Ngn3(+) progenitor cells or in the adult duodenum. During embryonic development Nkx2.2 regulates all enteroendocrine cell types, except gastrin and preproglucagon. In developing Ngn3(+) enteroendocrine progenitor cells, Nkx2.2 is not required for the specification of neuropeptide Y and vasoactive intestinal polypeptide, indicating that a subset of these cell populations derive from an Nkx2.2-independent lineage. In adult duodenum, Nkx2.2 becomes dispensable for cholecystokinin and secretin production. In all stages and Nkx2.2 mutant conditions, serotonin-producing enterochromaffin cells were the most severely reduced enteroendocrine lineage in the duodenum and colon. We determined that the transcription factor Lmx1a is expressed in enterochromaffin cells and functions downstream of Nkx2.2. Lmx1a-deficient mice have reduced expression of Tph1, the rate-limiting enzyme for serotonin biosynthesis. These data clarify the function of Nkx2.2 in the specification and homeostatic maintenance of enteroendocrine populations, and identify Lmx1a as a novel enterochromaffin cell marker that is also essential for the production of the serotonin biosynthetic enzyme Tph1.

Transcription profiling of mouse Ngn3-expressing pancreatic cells in a time series through embryonic development and adult islet cells

Project description:Neurogenin3 (Ngn3) is a basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor which is expressed in scattered cells in the embryonic pancreas. Mice deficient for Ngn3 fail to produce any pancreatic endocrine cells and die shortly after birth. Expression of transcription factors critical to pancreatic development (Isl1, NeuroD, Pax4, and Pax6) is missing and endocrine precursors are absent in mutant pancreatic epithelium. This study utilizes mice which were engineered to contain EGFP (Enhanced Green Fluorescent Protein) under the control of the Ngn3 promoter. In this way, cells which express Ngn3 can be FACS sorted and studied throughout embryonic development (E13.5, E14.5, E15.5, E16.5, and E17.5). EGFP positive cells from the embryonic time-points in addition to adult islets (no cells expressing Ngn3) were hybridized to the BCBC PancChip 6.0 expression microarray, thus generating a profile of gene expression during this critical stage of development of the endocrine pancreas.

Lipid malabsorption from altered hormonal signaling changes early gut microbial responses.

Project description:Infants with congenital diarrheal disorders caused by enteroendocrine cell dysgenesis, or the loss of intestinal endocrine cells, causes severe malabsorptive diarrhea, though the mechanism is not fully understood. The transcription factor "aristaless-related homeobox" (Arx) is specifically expressed in intestinal endocrine cells. This study seeks to characterize the early malabsorptive phenotype of mice deficient for Arx using cell-type specific gene ablation in Villin-Cre; ArxloxP/Y ( Arxint) mice. In neonatal mice, the loss of intestinal Arx caused the loss of intestinal hormones, such as cholecystokinin, secretin, neurotensin, glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide, glucagon-like peptide (GLP)-1 and GLP-2 but also upregulation of somatostatin. Arxint mice exhibited steatorrhea with the loss of lipid transport in duodenal enterocytes, upregulation of lysozyme-positive Paneth cells, and a secondary increase in antimicrobial peptides, specifically Reg3?. When the epithelium from Arxint mice was cultured ex vivo into enteroids, however, the Reg3? upregulation was lost under the sterile conditions. Thus, Arx is required for the appropriate lineage allocation of multiple enteroendocrine subtypes. We concluded that altered hormonal signaling caused by Arx deficiency results in lipid malabsorption, premature Paneth cell differentiation, and an inflammatory response, including neutrophilic infiltrates and a microbiota-triggered upregulation of Reg3?. NEW & NOTEWORTHY The enteroendocrine transcription factor aristaless-related homeobox (Arx) plays a key role in lineage specification. Changes in hormonal expression mediated by Arx lead to lipid malabsorption and premature Paneth cell development. Furthermore, global profiling of whole intestine from Arx-deficient mice revealed significant upregulation of antimicrobial peptides. This antimicrobial response in Arx-deficient animals is lost under sterile culture conditions of enteroids.

Pak3 promotes cell cycle exit and differentiation of ?-cells in the embryonic pancreas and is necessary to maintain glucose homeostasis in adult mice.

Project description:The transcription factor neurogenin3 (Ngn3) triggers islet cell differentiation in the developing pancreas. However, little is known about the molecular mechanisms coupling cell cycle exit and differentiation in Ngn3(+) islet progenitors. We identified a novel effector of Ngn3 endocrinogenic function, the p21 protein-activated kinase Pak3, known to control neuronal differentiation and implicated in X-linked intellectual disability in humans. We show that Pak3 expression is initiated in Ngn3(+) endocrine progenitor cells and next maintained in maturing hormone-expressing cells during pancreas development as well as in adult islet cells. In Pak3-deficient embryos, the proliferation of Ngn3(+) progenitors and ?-cells is transiently increased concomitantly with an upregulation of Ccnd1. ?-Cell differentiation is impaired at E15.5 but resumes at later stages. Pak3-deficient mice do not develop overt diabetes but are glucose intolerant under high-fat diet (HFD). In the intestine, Pak3 is expressed in enteroendocrine cells but is not necessary for their differentiation. Our results indicate that Pak3 is a novel regulator of ?-cell differentiation and function. Pak3 acts downstream of Ngn3 to promote cell cycle exit and differentiation in the embryo by a mechanism that might involve repression of Ccnd1. In the adult, Pak3 is required for the proper control of glucose homeostasis under challenging HFD.

Chronology of islet differentiation revealed by temporal cell labeling.

Project description:<h4>Objective</h4>Neurogenin 3 plays a pivotal role in pancreatic endocrine differentiation. Whereas mouse models expressing reporters such as eGFP or LacZ under the control of the Neurog3 gene enable us to label cells in the pancreatic endocrine lineage, the long half-life of most reporter proteins makes it difficult to distinguish cells actively expressing neurogenin 3 from differentiated cells that have stopped transcribing the gene.<h4>Research design and methods</h4>In order to separate the transient neurogenin 3 -expressing endocrine progenitor cells from the differentiating endocrine cells, we developed a mouse model (Ngn3-Timer) in which DsRed-E5, a fluorescent protein that shifts its emission spectrum from green to red over time, was expressed transgenically from the NEUROG3 locus.<h4>Results</h4>In the Ngn3-Timer embryos, green-dominant cells could be readily detected by microscopy or flow cytometry and distinguished from green/red double-positive cells. When fluorescent cells were sorted into three different populations by a fluorescence-activated cell sorter, placed in culture, and then reanalyzed by flow cytometry, green-dominant cells converted to green/red double-positive cells within 6 h. The sorted cell populations were then used to determine the temporal patterns of expression for 145 transcriptional regulators in the developing pancreas.<h4>Conclusions</h4>The precise temporal resolution of this model defines the narrow window of neurogenin 3 expression in islet progenitor cells and permits sequential analyses of sorted cells as well as the testing of gene regulatory models for the differentiation of pancreatic islet cells.

Pancreatic neurogenin 3-expressing cells are unipotent islet precursors.

Project description:Pancreatic islet endocrine cells arise during development from precursors expressing neurogenin 3 (Ngn3). As a population, Ngn3(+) cells produce all islet cell types, but the potential of individual Ngn3(+) cells, an issue central to organogenesis in general and to in vitro differentiation towards cell-based therapies, has not been addressed. We performed in vivo clonal analyses in mice to study the proliferation and differentiation of very large numbers of single Ngn3(+) cells using MADM, a genetic system in which a Cre-dependent chromosomal translocation labels, at extremely low mosaic efficiency, a small number of Ngn3(+) cells. We scored large numbers of progeny arising from single Ngn3(+) cells. In newborns, labeled islets frequently contained just a single tagged endocrine cell, indicating for the first time that each Ngn3(+) cell is the precursor of a single endocrine cell. In adults, small clusters of two to three Ngn3(+) progeny were detected, but all expressed the same hormone, indicating a low rate of replication from birth to adult stages. We propose a model whereby Ngn3(+) cells are monotypic (i.e. unipotent) precursors, and use this paradigm to refocus ideas on how cell number and type must be regulated in building complete islets of Langerhans.

Comprehensive single-cell mRNA profiling reveals a detailed roadmap for pancreatic endocrinogenesis

Project description:This dataset consists of single-cell RNA-seq (10X) data from 4 embryonic stages (E12.5-15.5) of pancreatic epithelial cells from Neurogenin3 (Ngn3)-Venus fusion (NVF) homozygous mice. Endocrine progenitor cells (NVF+) were enriched by FACS cell sorting. Overall design: 4 single cell RNA seq experiments were performed using 10X Genomics technology to generate single cell transcriptomic profiles of embryonic pancreatic epithelial cells from a Neurogenin3 (Ngn3)-Venus fusion (NVF) reporter mouse line. Cells were sorted and NVF+ and NVF- cells mixed (50:50) to enrich for endocrine Ngn3+ progenitors. Cells were sampled from pancreata of E12.5,E13.5,E14.5 and E15.5 embryos.
