Zfp281 functions as a barrier in embryonic stem cells to extraembryonic endoderm stem cells differentiation [RNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: Cell-fate decisions and lineage commitment in early embryonic development are governed by comprehensive gene-regulatory programs. However, the molecular details leading to initial segregation of different lineages remain unclear. In the second cell-fate decision, epiblast (EPI) and primitive endoderm (PrE) lineages are formed from the pluripotent inner cell mass (ICM) cells at blastocyst stage. Here, we demonstrated that the pluripotency transcription factor Zfp281 is a barrier in embryonic stem cells (ESCs) to PrE lineage differentiation. Zfp281 is expressed in extraembryonic endoderm cells (XENs), the ex vivo derivatives of PrE. But knockdown of Zfp281 doesn’t affect either maintenance or expression of the PrE master regulators in XENs. Using an in vitro differentiation protocol, we revealed that knockout of Zfp281 significantly increased the efficiency of ESC to XEN derivation. Using a Zfp281 rescue line for the knockout cells, we further confirmed that effects of elevated efficiency of XEN derivation is specifically due to loss of Zfp281. Mechanistically, we revealed that Zfp281 interacts with components in the polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2), and recruits PRC2 to promoters of PrE master regulators GATA4 and GATA6 for transcriptional and epigenetic repression. Taken together, our results demonstrated a novel role of Zfp281 in second cell-fate decision in embryonic stem cell differentiation.

Conversion of mES to cXEN cells

Project description:The inner cell mass of the mouse pre-implantation blastocyst is comprised of epiblast progenitor and primitive endoderm cells of which cognate embryonic (mESCs) or extra-embryonic (XEN) stem cell lines can be derived. Importantly, each stem cell type retains the defining properties and lineage restriction of their in vivo tissue of origin. Recently, we demonstrated that XEN-like cells arise within mESC cultures. This raises the possibility that mESCs can generate self-renewing XEN cells without the requirement for gene manipulation. We have developed a novel approach to convert mESCs to XEN cells (cXEN) using growth factors. We confirm that the down-regulation of the pluripotency transcription factor Nanog and the expression of primitive endoderm-associated genes Gata6, Gata4, Sox17 and Pdgfra are necessary for cXEN cell derivation. This approach highlights an important function for Fgf4 in cXEN cell derivation. Paracrine FGF-signalling compensates for the loss of endogenous Fgf4, which is necessary to exit mESC self-renewal, but not for XEN cell maintenance. Our cXEN protocol also reveals that distinct pluripotent stem cells respond uniquely to differentiation promoting signals. cXEN cells can be derived from mESCs cultured with Erk- and Gsk3-inhibitors (2i) and LIF, similarly to conventional mESCs. However, we find that epiblast stem cells (EpiSCs) derived from the post-implantation embryo are refractory to cXEN cell establishment, consistent with the hypothesis that EpiSCs represent a pluripotent state distinct from mESCs. In all, these findings suggest that the potential of mESCs includes the capacity to give rise to both extra-embryonic and embryonic lineages. A total of eight samples were analyzed. Three mouse embryonic stem cell (mESC) lines were used as a negative control, 2 embryo-derived extraembryonic endoderm (XEN) cell lines were used as a positive control, 3 converted XEN (cXEN) cells were used as the experiemental cell lines.

Derivation and characterization of chimera-competent eXtra-Embryonic eNdoderm (XEN) cells from pig blastocysts

Project description:We report for the first time, the derivation and characterization of extra-embryonic endoderm (XEN) cells from primitive endoderm (PrE) of porcine (p) embryos. The pXEN cells can be reliably and reproducibly generated from parthenogenic, in vitro or in vivo derived embryos, and express canonical PrE or XEN cell genes (GATA4, GATA6, SOX17, SALL4, FOXA2, and HNF4A). Transcriptome analysis of pXEN cells revealed close resemblance to yolk sac than any other embryonic or extraembryonic tissue. When introduced into blastocyst stage embryo, the pXEN cells contributed to wide-spread chimerism including visceral yolk sac, chorion, as well as embryonic gut and liver primordium in the fetus. The pXEN cells were shown to be an efficient nuclear donor for generating cloned offspring. Taken together, pXEN cells fulfil a longstanding need for a stable, chimera-competent, and nuclear transfer-compatible porcine embryonic cells with applications for genome editing in livestock.

Dissecting crosstalk between embryonic and extra-embryonic tissues with stem cell co-culture [I]

Project description:Faithful embryogenesis requires the precise coordination between embryonic and extraembryonic tissues. Although embryonic and extraembryonic stem cells have been derived from several mammalian species including humans, they are cultured in different conditions, which makes it difficult to study their intercommunication. Here, by simultaneously activating FGF, TGF-β and WNT pathways, we derived stable pluripotent stem cells (PSCs), trophoblast stem cells (TSCs) and extraembryonic endoderm stem cells (XENs) from mouse blastocysts under the same condition (FTW). Co-culture of PSCs and XENs in the same environment uncovered, among other interactions, a previously unrecognized control of proliferation of epiblast cells by extraembryonic endoderm cells. FTW condition also supported de novo derivation of XENs from cynomolgus monkey and human blastocysts, and enabled setting up co-culture of human iPSCs and XENs. Crosspieces comparison revealed conserved and divergent processes and genes regulating XENs and ligand-receptor interactions between pluripotent and extraembryonic endoderm cells. Our study establishes a unique stem cell co-culture strategy to examine embryonic and extraembryonic lineage crosstalk during early mammalian development, and opens the door for developing more faithful in vitro models and differentiation protocols.

Temporal RNA-seq expression profiling of Sox17-medaited XEN conversion of ESCs

Project description:The transcription factor Sox17 is expressed in early primitive endoderm-fated cells of the mouse embryo and in embryo-derived extraembryonic endoderm (ExEn) stem (XEN) cells. We have shown that overexpression of Sox17 in mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs) drives cell fate to a committed XEN-like cell state (Sox17-XEN cells). When placed back into the embryo, Sox17-XEN cells contribute exclusively to the ExEn. Transient Sox17 expression is sufficient to drive this fate change during which time cells transit through distinct intermediate states prior to the generation of functional XEN-like cells. We identified dynamic regulatory networks driving Sox17-mediated XEN conversion by analyzing a dynamic regulatory map of gene expression bifurcation points throughout conversion, created using RNA-seq time series data. We found that Sox17 orchestrates this conversion process by acting in autoregulatory and feed-forward network motifs, regulating dynamic gene regulatory networks (GRNs) directing cell fate. We have shown that Sox17-mediated XEN conversion provides a powerful tool for understanding the regulation of cell fate changes and for the elucidation of GRNs regulating lineage decisions in the mouse embryo. Total RNA was extracted during a time course of Sox17 overexpression in mouse ESCs at 7 time points as well as from wild-type ESCs and wild-type XEN cells.

Dynamic proteomic profiling of extra-embryonic endoderm differentiation in mouse embryonic stem cells

Project description:During mammalian pre-implantation development, the cells of the blastocyst’s inner cell mass differentiate into the epiblast and primitive endoderm lineages, which give rise to the fetus and extra-embryonic tissues, respectively. Extra-embryonic endoderm differentiation can be modeled in vitro by induced expression of GATA transcription factors in mouse embryonic stem cells. Here we use this GATA-inducible system to quantitatively monitor the dynamics of global proteomic changes during the early stages of this differentiation event and also investigate the fully differentiated phenotype, as represented by embryo-derived extra-embryonic endoderm (XEN) cells. Using mass spectrometry-based quantitative proteomic profiling with multivariate data analysis tools, we reproducibly quantified 2,336 proteins across three biological replicates and have identified clusters of proteins characterized by distinct, dynamic temporal abundance profiles. We first used this approach to highlight novel marker candidates of the pluripotent state and extra-embryonic endoderm differentiation. Through functional annotation enrichment analysis, we have shown that the downregulation of chromatin-modifying enzymes, the re-organization of membrane trafficking machinery and the breakdown of cell-cell adhesion are successive steps of the extra-embryonic differentiation process. Thus, applying a range of sophisticated clustering approaches to a time-resolved proteomic dataset has allowed the elucidation of complex biological processes which characterize stem cell differentiation and could establish a general paradigm for the investigation of these processes.

Prmt1 safeguards mouse embryonic stem cells against bias toward the extraembryonic endoderm cell fate via arginine methylation of Klf4

Project description:Heterogeneous gene expression is a characteristic feature of stem cells and is essential for steering lineage choices. However, the molecular mechanisms of heterogeneity remain largely unknown. Here, we report that depletion of protein arginine methyltransferase 1 (Prmt1) in mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells heterogeneously induces the expression of primitive endoderm (PrE) genes, consequently biasing the cells to fluctuate toward the extraembryonic endoderm stem (XEN) cell fate. Furthermore, the pluripotency factor Klf4 is arginine-methylated by Prmt1 at arginine 396 (R396), which is required for recruitment of the mSin3a/HDAC complex to silence PrE genes. Importantly, when methylation is disrupted by a Prmt1 knockout, a Prmt1 inhibitor, or a blocked methylation site in Klf4, ES cells are predisposed to XEN induction. Our data demonstrate the importance of Prmt1 in the fluctuating heterogeneity of ES cells and reveal a regulatory mechanism for cell fate decisions that is centered on Klf4 methylation mediated by Prmt1.
