Effects of TNFR2 deletion on the development of mouse colonic epithelial organoids

ABSTRACT: The early phase of colonic epithelial wound healing involves cellular reprogramming to a fetal-like state and reorganization of discrete crypt units into merged wound channels. After re-epithelialization is complete, a latter phase restoring homeostatic signaling and crypt patterning must occur. However, the signals that mediate this regenerative transition are unknown. Here we show that injury-associated upregulation of a cytokine receptor, tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor 2 (R2, TNFR2, Tnfrsf1b), suppresses fetal-like signaling and promotes crypt production. We used tissue clearing and whole-mount imaging, RNA-Seq, and organoid cultures to characterize mice with a colonic epithelial-specific deletion of TNFR2. These mice exhibited increased crypt size and reduced fission in adult homeostasis and after colitis, abnormal persistence of fetal-like molecular markers in organoids and after injury, reduced terminal differentiation, and increased proliferative potential. These results demonstrate how epithelial cells can adapt to inflammatory cues to regulate wound healing morphogenesis and signaling.

Effect of colonic epithelial knockout of tumor necrosis factor receptor 2 (TNFR2) in dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis

Project description:Colonic epithelial repair is a key determinant of health. After injury, repair initiates through phenotypic reprogramming of wounded epithelium to a regenerative state permissive for the activation of alternative stem cell populations and healing. Although cytokine signals such as interferons may help induce regenerative reprogramming, the signals that modify this state as the wound resolves remain largely unknown. Here we examined whether cytokine signaling mediated by tumor necrosis factor receptor 2 (TNFR2) influenced the wound repair process. We examined mice with targeted deletion of the Tnfrsf1b (TNFR2) gene in intestinal/colonic epithelium (Vil1::Cre;Tnfr2-f/f) and compared their transcriptional profiles to control (Tnfr2-f/f) mice. We sorted EpCAM+ (epithelial) cells from Vil1::Cre;Tnfr2-f/f and control DSS-treated mice and performed bulk RNA-Seq. Comparison of transcript expression profile before and after DSS-induced colitis in control (Tnfr2-f/f) mice revealed upregulation of pathways associated with metabolic regulation, ribosomal function, oxidative stress, TNF signaling, and focal adhesions after DSS treatment. Pathway enrichment analysis demonstrated elevated regenerative (“fetal”) intestinal signaling, reduced inflammation, and increased proliferative signaling in Vil1::Cre;Tnfr2-f/f colonic epithelium after DSS treatment. The knockout epithelium also showed reduced expression of markers of differentiated colonic epithelium and elevated expression of progenitor cell signaling. Thus, the transcriptional data were consistent with increased regenerative signaling in TNFR2-knockout epithelium, suggesting that TNFR2 has a role in restraining the relatively undifferentiated regenerative state.

Single-cell analysis of colonic organoids deficient for tumor necrosis factor receptor 2

Project description:Colonic epithelial repair is a key determinant of health. After injury, repair initiates through phenotypic reprogramming of wounded epithelium to a regenerative state permissive for the activation of alternative stem cell populations and healing. Although cytokine signals such as interferon help induce regenerative reprogramming, the signals that modify this state as the wound resolves remain largely unknown. Here we show that, during healing, the late upregulation of a cytokine receptor, tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor 2 (R2, TNFR2, Tnfrsf1b), clears the phenotype of regenerative signaling and restores homeostatic patterns of epithelial differentiation. Mice lacking epithelial-specific expression of TNFR2 also failed to complete colon ulcer healing, suggesting that full repair requires coordination of both regenerative and homeostatic epithelial phenotypes. In single-cell RNA-seq experiments, we find that colonic epithelial organoids grown from Tnfr2-/- mice retain a highly enriched census of progenitor cells and reduced representation of differentiated cells, consistent with TNFR2's role in promoting differentiation. These results demonstrate how epithelial cells adapt to inflammatory cues to choreograph repair.

Single-cell transcriptome profiling of mouse colonic mucosa in colitis

Project description:Chronic injury and inflammation pose high risks for epithelial dysplasia and cancer. In the “field cancerization” model, spontaneous mutations confer a stem-cell fitness advantage and promote gradual clonal expansion. Here, through 3d imaging, fate-mapping, biophysical modeling, and single-cell transcriptomics in a mouse model of acute colitis, we define an alternate, rapid mechanism for clonal expansion: the neutral activation of metabolically reprogrammed “founder progenitor cells” (FPCs) during wound healing. FPCs leverage the breakdown of normal crypt regenerative boundaries to expand multiplicatively into new crypts patterned from a zone of cellular mixing and plasticity. FPCs represent relatively generic proliferative cells probabilistically emerging from a background of fetal-reprogrammed epithelium and derive from both surface and basal zones of the injured colonic mucosa. Acute wound healing activates spatial and lineage plasticity to generate clonal fields without significant mutational burden. These results suggest that hallmark pre-neoplastic changes may arise from a punctuated pattern of injury and healing rather than gradual field cancerization.

RNA seq of mouse bone marrow derived macrophages treated with Debaryomyces hansenii against untreated controls

Project description:We found that the fungus, Debaryomyces hansenii (D. hansenii), is enriched in inflamed intestinal tissue from patients of Crohn's disease and its administration to mice impairs colonic wound healing in multiple models of colonic injury and repair. To understand the mechanism, we isolated bone marrow derived macrophages from mice and stimulated them in vitro with a pure isolate of D. hansenii. Total RNA was isolated at multiple time points and assayed for transcriptomic analysis.

Expression data from colon epithelium of STAT3IEC-KO in acute DSS colitis

Project description:STAT3 is a pleiotropic transcription factor with important functions in cytokine signalling in a variety of tissues. However, the role of STAT3 in the intestinal epithelium is not well understood. Here we demonstrate that development of colonic inflammation is associated with the induction of STAT3 activity in intestinal epithelial cells (IEC). Studies in genetically engineered mice showed that epithelial STAT3 activation in DSS colitis is dependent on IL-22 rather than IL-6. IL-22 was secreted by colonic CD11c+ cells in response to Toll-like receptor stimulation. Conditional knockout mice with an IEC specific deletion of STAT3 activity were highly susceptible to experimental colitis, indicating that epithelial STAT3 regulates gut homeostasis. STAT3IEC-KO mice, upon induction of colitis, showed a striking defect of epithelial restitution. Gene chip analysis indicated that STAT3 regulates the cellular stress response, apoptosis and pathways associated with wound healing in IEC. Consistently, both IL-22 and epithelial STAT3 were found to be important in wound-healing experiments in vivo. In summary, our data suggest that intestinal epithelial STAT3 activation regulates immune homeostasis in the gut by promoting IL-22-dependent mucosal wound healing. 4 samples of colon epithelium were analyzed from 4 mice (2 per group Stat3flfl VillinCre- and Stat3flfl VillinCre+, respectively) after they had been treated with DSS (2.5%) for 5 days

Smad4 Loss in the Mouse Intestinal EpitheliumAlleviates the Pathological Fibrotic Response to Injury in the Colon

Project description:Mucosal healing is associated with better clinical outcomes in patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs). Unresolved injury and inflammation, on the other hand, increases pathological fibrosis and the predisposition to cancer. Loss of Smad4, a tumor suppressor, is known to increase colitis-associated cancer in mouse models of chronic IBD. Since common biological processes are involved in both injury repair and tumor growth, we sought to investigate the effect of Smad4 loss on the response to epithelial injury. To study the injury response, an IBD mouse model of acute inflammation using dextran sulphate sodium (DSS) was used. Smad4 was knocked out only in the mouse intestinal epithelium, treated with DSS, and the early molecular and morphological response compared to its wildtype counterpart. We find that Smad4 loss alleviates pathological fibrosis and enhances mucosal repair. Transcriptomic changes specific to the epithelium indicate molecular changes that affect peri-crypt epithelial extracellular matrix (ECM), that might contribute to the enhanced mucosal repair, and in preventing the fibrotic response. We find that biological processes that promote tumor progression might facilitate the wound healing response and reduce the pathological fibrotic response to DSS. Therefore, these repair processes could be exploited, if uncoupled from the tumorigenic effect, to develop therapies that promote non-pathological wound healing and to prevent fibrosis.

Microbial-Derived Metabolites Regulate the Colonic Crypt Niche

Project description:In the mammalian intestine, crypts of LeiberkÃ¼hn house intestinal epithelial stem /progenitor cells at their base. We found that the presence of this structure was supported by the physiologic role of a prominent bacterial metabolite, butyrate. This bacterially-produced short chain fatty acid inhibited intestinal epithelial proliferation at physiologic concentrations. During homeostasis, butyrate did not suppress epithelial stem proliferation because it was metabolized by differentiated colonocytes. Provision of butyrate access to stem/progenitor cells either through mucosal injury or application to a crypt-less host led to inhibition of proliferation. The mechanism was dependent on HDAC inhibition in stem cells and the transcription factor Foxo3. Thus, the mammalian crypt unit structure provides energy for differentiated cells at a distance from the crypt base and this action prevents suppression of stem/progenitor proliferation. In total 4 samples were analyzed from 2 independent experiments. Two samples of colonic stem cells treated with 1mM Butyrate and two samples of colonic stem cells treated with 1mM NaCl (mock) as a control
