Ketone body signaling mediates intestinal stem cell homeostasis and adaptation to diet

ABSTRACT: Little is known about how metabolites couple tissue stem function with physiology. Here we show that in the mammalian small intestine, the expression of Hmgcs2 (3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA synthetase 2)—the gene encoding the rate-limiting enzyme in the production of ketone bodies, including beta-hydroxybutyrate (ßOHB)—distinguishes the self-renewing Lgr5+ stem cells (ISCs) from differentiated cell types. Hmgcs2 loss depletes ßOHB levels in Lgr5+ ISCs and skews their differentiation towards secretory cell fates, which can be rescued by exogenous ßOHB and class I histone deacetylases (HDACs) inhibitor treatment. Mechanistically, ßOHB acts by inhibiting HDACs to reinforce Notch signaling in ISCs, thereby instructing self-renewal and lineage decisions. Notably, while a low glucose ketogenic diet elevates ISC function and post-injury regeneration through ßOHB-mediated Notch signaling, a glucose supplemented diet has the opposite effects. These findings reveal how control of ßOHB-activated signaling in ISCs by diet helps to fine-tune stem cell adaptation in homeostasis and injury.

Region-specific proteome changes of the intestinal epithelium during aging and dietary restriction

Project description:The small intestine is responsible for nutrient absorption and it is one of the most important interfaces between the environment and our body. During aging, changes in the structure of the epithelium lead to food malabsorption and reduced barrier function thus increasing disease risk in aging. The molecular drivers of these alterations remain poorly understood. Here, we compared the proteomes of small intestinal crypts from mice across different anatomical regions and age groups. We found that aging alters epithelial immune responses, metabolic networks and stem cell proliferation, and it is accompanied by a region-dependent skewing in the cellular composition of the intestinal epithelium. Of note, a short period of dietary restriction followed by re-feeding partially restores the epithelium to a youthful state by promoting the differentiation of intestinal stem cells (ISCs) towards the secretory lineage. Using in vitro and in vivo studies, we identify Hmgcs2 (3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA synthetase 2) – the rate limiting enzyme in the synthesis of ketone bodies – as a modulator of ISCs differentiation, which responds to dietary changes. This study provides an atlas of age-dependent proteome changes in defined regions of the intestinal epithelium and characterizes how young and old mice adapt to drastic changes of diet, such as dietary restriction and re-feeding.

RNA-seq of mouse Lgr5+ intestinal stem cells and progenitors following Lkb1 deletion against controls

Project description:Perturbed intestinal epithelial homeostasis demonstrated as decreased Lgr5+ intestinal stem cells (Lgr5 ISCs) and increased secretory lineages were observed in our study where Lkb1 was specfically deleted in Lgr5 ISCs using Lgr5-EGFP-creERT2 (Tamoxifen) deletor. To gain mechanistic insight how Lkb1 maintains intestinal epithelial stem cell homeostasis, Lkb1 deficient ISCs (Lgr5-high cells) and progenitors (Lgr5-low cells) are isolated by flow cytometry and profiled by RNA sequencing to compare with controls (Lkb1 wild type ISCs and progenitors).

Ribosome impairment regulates intestinal stem cell identity via ZAKa activation.

Project description:The small intestine is a rapidly proliferating organ that is maintained by a small population of Lgr5-expressing intestinal stem cells (ISCs). However, several Lgr5-negative ISC populations have been identified, and this remarkable plasticity allows the intestine to rapidly respond to both the local environment and to damage. The mediators of such plasticity are still largely unknown. Using intestinal organoids and mouse models, we show that upon ribosome impairment (driven by Rptor deletion, amino acid starvation, or low dose cyclohexamide treatment) ISCs gain an Lgr5-negative, fetal-like identity. This is accompanied by a rewiring of metabolism. Our findings suggest that the ribosome can act as a sensor of nutrient availability, allowing ISCs to respond to the local nutrient environment. Mechanistically, we show that this phenotype requires the activation of ZAKɑ, which in turn activates YAP, via SRC. Together, our data reveals a central role for ribosome dynamics in intestinal stem cells, and identify the activation of ZAKɑ as a critical mediator of stem cell identity.

Gene expression profiles of WT and CREPT deleted Lgr5+ intestinal stem cells

Project description:Intestinal stem cells (ISCs) residing in the crypts are critical for the continual self-renewal and rapid recovery of intestinal epithelium. The regulatory mechanism of ISCs is not fully understood. Here we report that CREPT, a recently identified tumor-promoting gene, is preferably expressed in the crypts, where the ISCs reside, but not in the villi. The Lgr5+ ISCs have much higher CREPT protein level than Lgr5- cells. To explore the function of CREPT in ISCs, we isolated WT and CREPT deleted Lgr5+ ISCs (Lgr5-CREPTKO) to perform Next generation sequencing.

Postnatal epigenetic development of mouse intestinal stem cells

Project description:We used unbiased whole genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS) to identify DNA methylation changes in the intestinal stem cells (ISCs) or their progeny during the suckling period of mouse colon development. Lgr5-EGFP mice were used to identify ISC populations in the colons. WGBS were performed using EGFP labeled Lgr5+ ISCs and epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) labeled epithelial cells isolated at the beginning and end of the suckling period (postnatal day 0-P0 and P21).

A constant pool of Lgr5+ intestinal stem cells is required for intestinal homeostasis

Project description:Lgr5+ crypt base columnar cells, the operational intestinal stem cells (ISCs), are thought to be dispensable for small intestinal (SI) homeostasis. Using a novel Lgr5-2A-DTR (Diphtheria Toxin Receptor) model which ablates Lgr5+ cells with near-complete efficiency and retains endogenous levels of Lgr5 expression, we show that persistent depletion of Lgr5+ ISCs in fact compromises SI epithelial integrity and reduces epithelial turnover in vivo. In vitro, Lgr5-2A-DTR SI organoids are unable to establish or survive when Lgr5+ ISCs are continuously eliminated when DT is in the media. However, transient exposure to DT at the start of culture allows organoids to form, and the rate of outgrowth reduces with increasing length of DT presence. Our results indicate that intestinal homeostasis requires a constant pool of Lgr5+ ISCs, which is supplied by rapidly reprogrammed non-Lgr5+ crypt populations when pre-existing Lgr5+ ISCs are ablated.

Compared gene expression profile of Lgr5-expressing and deficient stem cells in the intestine

Project description:The Lgr5 receptor is a marker of intestinal stem cells (ISCs) that regulates Wnt/b-catenin signaling. In this study, phenotype analysis of knockin/knockout Lgr5-eGFP-IRES-Cre and Lgr5-DTReGFP embryos revealed that Lgr5 deficiency during Wnt-mediated cytodifferentiation results in amplification of ISCs and early differentiation into Paneth cells, which can be counteracted by in utero treatment with the Wnt inhibitor LGK974. Conditional ablation of Lgr5 postnatally, but not in adults, altered stem cell fate towards the Paneth lineage. Together, these in vivo studies suggest that Lgr5 is part of a feedback loop to adjust the Wnt tone in ISCs. Moreover, transcriptome analyses revealed that Lgr5 controls fetal ISC maturation associated with acquisition of a definitive stable epithelial phenotype, that depends on the capacity of ISCs to generate their own extracellular matrix. Finally, using the ex vivo culture system, evidences are provided that Lgr5/Rspondin 2 interaction negatively regulates the pool of ISCs in organoids, revealing a sophisticated regulatory process for Wnt signaling in ISC.

The intestinal stem cell signature identifies colorectal cancer stem cells and predicts disease relapse

Project description:Using EphB2 or the ISC marker Lgr5, we have FACS-purified and profiled intestinal stem cells (ISCs), crypt proliferative progenitors and late transient amplifying cells to define a gene expression program specific for normal ISCs. A frequent complication in colorectal cancer (CRC) is regeneration of the tumor after therapy. The intestinal stem cell signature predicts disease relapse in CRC and identifies a stem cell-like population that displays robust tumor- initiating capacity in immunodeficient mice as well as long-term self-renewal potential. We FACS purified mouse intestinal crypt cells according to their EphB2 or Lgr5 contents. We used Affymetrix chips to hybridize 2 samples from EphB2 high, 2 samples from EphB2 medium and 2 samples from EphB2 low cells (one sample from each group in a first hybridization on February 2009 plus an additional sample from each group on March 2009). Additionally, we hybridized one sample from Lgr5-EGFP high and one sample from Lgr5-EGFP low cells, obtained from Lgr5-EGFP knock-in mice (Barker et al., 2007).

circular RNA (circRNA) expression profile in intestinal stem cells

Project description:Purpose: circRNAs emerge as critical modulators in various biogical processes, but their roles in intestinal stem cells (ISC) reamin unclear. Here we want to identify a functional circRNA in ISCs, and firstly, we explore the expression profile of circRNA in ISCs. Methods: We isolated Lgr5+ ISCs and Lgr5- non-ISCs from the intestine tissue, followed by circRNA seq. Results: Many circRNAs are differently expressed in ISCs and non-ISCs, and we selected circRNAs highly expressed in ISCs for further investigation. Conclusions: circRNAs may play a critical role in ISC self-renewal.
