Reduced chromatin accessibility correlates with resistance to Notch activation

ABSTRACT: The Notch signalling pathway is a master regulator of cell fate transitions in development and disease. In the brain, Notch promotes neural stem cell (NSC) proliferation, regulates neuronal migration and maturation and can act as an oncogene or tumour suppressor. How NOTCH and its transcription factor RBPJ activate distinct gene regulatory networks in closely related cell types in vivo remains to be determined. Here we use Targeted DamID (TaDa), requiring only thousands of cells, to identify NOTCH and RBPJ binding in NSCs and their progeny in the mouse embryonic cerebral cortex in vivo. We find that NOTCH and RBPJ associate with a broad network of NSC genes. Repression of NSC-specific Notch target genes in intermediate progenitors and neurons correlates with decreased chromatin accessibility, suggesting that chromatin compaction may contribute to restricting NOTCH-mediated transactivation.

FlyORF-TaDa allows rapid generation of new lines for in vivo cell-type specific profiling of protein-DNA interactions in Drosophila melanogaster

Project description:Targeted DamID (TaDa) is an increasingly popular method of generating cell-type specific DNA binding profiles in vivo. Although sensitive and versatile, TaDa requires the generation of new transgenic fly lines for every protein that is profiled, which is both time-consuming and costly. Here, we describe the FlyORF-TaDa system for converting an existing FlyORF library of inducible open reading frames (ORFs) to TaDa lines via a genetic cross, with recombinant progeny easily identifiable by eye colour. Profiling the binding of the H3K36me3-associated chromatin protein MRG15 in larval neural stem cells using both FlyORF-TaDa and conventional TaDa demonstrates that new lines generated using this system provide accurate and highly-reproducible DamID binding profiles. Our data further show that MRG15 binds to a subset of active chromatin domains in vivo. Courtesy of the large coverage of the FlyORF library, the FlyORF-TaDa system enables the easy creation of TaDa lines for 74% of all transcription factors and chromatin modifying proteins within the Drosophila genome.

FBXO42 facilitates Notch signaling activation and global chromatin relaxation by promoting K63-linked polyubiquitination of RBPJ

Project description:Dysregulation of the Notch-RBPJ signaling pathway has been found associated with various human diseases including cancers; however, precisely how this key signaling pathway is fine-tuned via its interactors and modifications is still largely unknown. In this study, using a proteomic approach, we identified FBXO42 as a novel RBPJ interactor. FBXO42 promotes RBPJ polyubiquitination on lysine (K) 175 via K63 linkage, which enhances the association of RBPJ with chromatin remodeling complexes and induces a global chromatin relaxation. Genetically depleting FBXO42 or pharmacologically targeting its E3 ligase activity attenuates the Notch signaling-related leukemia development in vivo. Taken together, our findings not only revealed FBXO42 as a critical regulator of the Notch pathway by modulating RBPJ-dependent global chromatin landscape changes, but also provide insights into the therapeutic intervention of the Notch pathway for leukemia treatment.

Single-Cell Transcriptomics Reveals a Population of Dormant Neural Stem Cells that Become Activated upon Brain Injury

Project description:Heterogeneous pools of adult neural stem cells (NSCs) contribute to brain maintenance and regeneration after injury. The balance of NSC activation and quiescence, as well as the induction of lineage-specific transcription factors, may contribute to diversity of neuronal and glial fates. To identify molecular hallmarks governing these characteristics, we performed single-cell sequencing of an unbiased pool of adult subventricular zone NSCs. This analysis identified a discrete, dormant NSC subpopulation that already expresses distinct combinations of lineage-specific transcription factors during homeostasis. Dormant NSCs enter a primed-quiescent state before activation, which is accompanied by downregulation of glycolytic metabolism, Notch, and BMP signaling and a concomitant upregulation of lineage-specific transcription factors and protein synthesis. In response to brain ischemia, interferon gamma signaling induces dormant NSC subpopulations to enter the primed-quiescent state. This study unveils general principles underlying NSC activation and lineage priming and opens potential avenues for regenerative medicine in the brain. Single cell RNAseq of cells isolated from their in vivo niche in the subventricular zone, Striatum and Cortex during homeostasis as well as following ischemic injury. In total 272 single cells. (<WT>: homeostasis samples; <Ischemic_injured> and <Ischemic_injured_and_Interferon_gamma_knockout>: samples following ischemic injuried).

RBPJ/CBF1 interacts with L3MBTL3/MBT1 to promote repression of Notch signaling via histone demethylase KDM1A/LSD1

Project description:Notch signaling is an evolutionarily conserved signal transduction pathway that is essential for metazoan development. At the molecular level, the key components of the Notch pathway are the NOTCH-family receptors, the ligands of the DSL (Delta, Serrate, Lag-2) family and the transcription factor CSL [CBF1/RBPJ, Su(H), Lag-1]. Upon ligand binding, the NOTCH Intra-Cellular Domain (NOTCH ICD) translocates into the nucleus and forms a complex with RBPJ to activate the transcription of target genes. In the absence of NOTCH ICD, RBPJ acts as a transcriptional repressor. Using a proteomic approach, we identified L3MBTL3 as a novel interactor of RBPJ. We discovered that L3MBTL3 competes with NOTCH ICD for binding to RBPJ. In the absence of NOTCH ICD, RBPJ recruits L3MBTL3 and its co-factor KDM1A [lysine (K)-specific demethylase 1A] to the promoters/enhancers of Notch target genes to promote H3K4me2 demethylation and transcriptional repression. In three distinct cell contexts in which Notch signaling governs cell fate, i.e., mature T-cells as well as brain and breast tumor cells, the loss of L3MBTL3 results in the de-repression of Notch target genes. Finally, the genetic analyses of the homologs of RBPJ and L3MBTL3 in Drosophila melanogaster and Caenorhabditis elegans demonstrate that the functional link between RBPJ/Su(H)/lag-1 and L3MBTL3/dL(3)mbt/lin-61 is evolutionarily conserved, thus identifying L3MBTL3 as a universal modulator of Notch signaling in metazoans.

NSC-derived exosomes enhance therapeutic effects of NSC transplantation on cerebral ischemia in mice

Project description:Transplantation of neural stem cells (NSCs) has been proved to promote functional rehabilitation of brain lesions including ischemic stroke. However, the therapeutic effects of NSC transplantation is limited by the low survival and differentiation rates of NSCs due to the harsh environment in the brain after ischemic stroke. Here, we employed NSCs derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) together with exosomes extracted from NSCs to treat cerebral ischemia induced by middle cerebral artery occlusion/reperfusion (MCAO/R) in mice. The results showed that NSC-derived exosomes significantly reduced the inflammatory response, alleviated oxidative stress after NSC transplantation, and facilitated NSCs differentiation in vivo. The combination of NSCs with exosomes ameliorated the injury of brain tissue including cerebral infarct, neuronal death and glial scarring, and promoted the motor function recovery. To explore the underlying mechanisms, we analyzed the miRNA profiles of NSC-derived exosomes and the potential downstream genes. Our study provided the rationale for the clinical application of NSC-derived exosomes as a supportive adjuvant for NSC transplantation after stroke.

Identification of genomic binding sites of a network of core promoter factors in developing Drosophila brains

Project description:The transcriptional mechanisms that allow neural stem cells (NSC) to balance self-renewal with differentiation are not well understood. We identify here a unique subset of TATA -binding protein associated factors (TAFs) as NSC identity genes in Drosophila. We found that depletion of any one of nine TAFs or the TBP-related factor 2 (TRF2), resulted in fewer NSCs exhibiting delayed cell cycle progression without impacting NSC survival. In contrast, depletion of TBP led to a delay in NSC cell cycle progression without loss of self-renewal. An integrated RNA-seq and DamID analysis revealed that TAFs function with both TBP and TRF2, and that TAF-TBP and TAF-TRF2 shared targets genes encode different subsets of transcription factors and RNA-binding proteins with established or emerging roles in NSC identity and brain development. Taken together, our results demonstrate that core promoter factors are selectively required for NSC identity in vivo by promoting cell cycle progression, NSC cell polarity and by preventing premature differentiation. Because pathogenic variants in TAF1, TAF2, TAF6, TAF8 and TAF13 have all been linked to human neurological disorders, this work may stimulate and inform future animal models of TAF-linked neurological disorders.

Redox-Dependent Igfbp2 Signaling Controls Brca1 DNA Damage Response to Govern Neural Stem Cell Fate

Project description:Neural stem cell (NSC) maintenance and functions are regulated by reactive oxygen species (ROS). However, the mechanisms by which ROS control NSC behavior remain unclear. Here we report that ROS-dependent Igfbp2 signaling controls DNA repair pathways which balance NSC self-renewal and lineage commitment. Ncf1 or Igfbp2 deficiency constrained NSCs to a self-renewing state and prevented neurosphere formation due to absent Igfbp2 cysteine-43 oxidation. Ncf1-dependent oxidation of Igfbp2 promoted neurogenesis by NSCs in vitro and in vivo, while repressing Brca1 DNA damage response genes and inducing DNA double-strand breaks (DDSBs). By contrast, Ncf1–/– and Igfbp2–/– NSCs favored the formation of oligodendrocytes in vitro and in vivo. Notably, transient repression of Brca1 DNA repair pathway genes induced DDSBs and was sufficient to rescue the ability of Ncf1–/– and Igfbp2–/– NSCs to lineage-commit to form neurospheres and neurons. Our study highlights the role of DNA damage/repair in orchestrating NSC fate decisions downstream of redox-regulated Igfbp2.
