Calcineurin Controls Proximodistal Blastema Polarity in Zebrafish Fin Regeneration

ABSTRACT: Planarian flatworms regenerate their heads and tails from anterior or posterior wounds and this blastema regeneration polarity is controlled by Wnt/β-catenin signaling. It is well known that a regeneration blastema of appendages of vertebrates such as fish and amphibians grows distally. However, it remains unclear whether a regeneration blastema in vertebrate appendages can grow proximally. Here, we show that a regeneration blastema in zebrafish fins can grow proximally along the proximodistal axis by calcineurin inhibition. We used fin excavation in adult zebrafish to observe the unidirectional regeneration, from the anterior cut edge (ACE) to the posterior cut edge (PCE) of the cavity and this unidirectional regeneration polarity occurs as the PCE fails to build blastemas. Furthermore, we found that calcineurin activities in the ACE were greater than in the PCE. Calcineurin inhibition induced the PCE blastemas, and calcineurin hyperactivation suppressed fin regeneration. Collectively, these findings identify calcineurin as a molecular switch to specify the PCE blastema of the proximodistal axis and regeneration polarity in zebrafish fin.

Expression data from regenerating axolotl forelimbs

Project description:Salamanders are capable of regenerating amputated limbs by generating a mass of lineage-restricted cells called a blastema. Blastemas only generate structures distal to their origin unless treated with retinoic acid (RA), which results in proximodistal (PD) limb duplications. Little is known about the transcriptional network that regulates PD duplication. In this study, we identified expression patterns that explain PD duplication including upregulation of proximal homeobox gene expression and silencing of distal-associated genes whereas limb truncation was associated with disrupted skeletal differentiation. Overall, mechanisms were identified that regulate RAR’s multifaceted roles in the salamander limb including regulation of skeletal patterning during epimorphic regeneration, skeletal tissue differentiation during regeneration, and homeostatic regeneration of intact limbs.

Single cell RNA sequencing of adult regenerating mouse digit tips

Project description:Innate regeneration following digit tip amputation is one of the few examples of epimorphic regeneration in mammals. Digit tip regeneration is mediated by the blastema, the same structure invoked during limb regeneration in some lower vertebrates. By genetic lineage analyses in mice, the digit tip blastema has been defined as a population of heterogeneous, lineage restructed progenitor cells. These previous studies, however, do not comprehensively evaluate blastema heterogeneity or address lineage restruction of closely related cell types. Here we report single cell RNA sequencing of over 38,000 cells from mouse digit tip blastemas and unamputated control digit tips and generate an atlas of the cell types participating in digit tip regeneration.

Failure of digit tip regeneration in the absence of Lmx1b suggests Lmx1b functions disparate from dorsoventral polarity

Project description:Mammalian digit tip regeneration is linked to the presence of nail tissue, but a nail-explicit model is missing. Here, we report that nail-less double-ventral digits of ΔLARM1/2 mutants that lack limb-specific Lmx1b enhancers, fail to regenerate. To separate the nail’s effect from the lack of DV polarity, we also interrogate double-dorsal double-nail digits and show that they regenerate. Thus, DV polarity is not a prerequisite for regeneration and the nail requirement is supported. Transcriptomic comparison between wild-type and non-regenerative ΔLARM1/2 mutant blastemas reveals differential up-regulation of vascularization and connective tissue functional signatures in wild-type versus upregulation of inflammation in the mutant. These results, together with the finding of Lmx1b expression in the postnatal dorsal dermis underneath the nail and uniformly in the regenerative blastema opens the possibility of additional Lmx1b roles in the progression of digit tip regeneration, in addition to the indirect effect of mediating the formation of the nail.

equinox RNAi gene expression profiling

Project description:Regeneration is a widespread phenomenon that often requires formation of a new tissue outgrowth at wounds called a blastema. Identifying the key signals that trigger blastema formation is therefore fundamental for understanding the mechanistic basis of regeneration. We uncovered a role for the wound epidermis in regeneration initiation in planarians. The gene equinox is expressed within hours of injury in the planarian wound epidermis and encodes a secreted protein conserved in many phyla. Following equinox inhibition, animals failed to form blastemas, reset positional information, and upregulate stem cell (neoblast) proliferation at wounds. Associated with these defects was an inability to maintain wound-induced gene expression. We propose that activation of equinox in the wound epidermis initiates planarian regeneration.

Compartmentalization and synergy of osteoblasts drive bone formation in the regenerating fin

Project description:This study investigated the cell composition and lineage relationships of FACS (fluorescence activated cell sorting)-enriched epidermal, bone forming (osteoblast) and (non-osteoblast) blastemal fin regenerate cells by single cell (sc) RNA sequencing. The repetitive cell harvesting in four-week intervals revealed a constant gene regulation over four successive regeneration rounds in the early outgrowth stage. In addition, the sc RNA dataset uncovered a potential lineage relationship between distal blastema cells and osteoblasts during fin regeneration. These findings, together with the identification of novel fin regenerate markers, advance our understanding of complex tissue regeneration in zebrafish.

Single-cell RNA sequencing of the cut and uncut caudal fin of zebrafish larvae

Project description:Purpose: The goal of this study was to establish the first detailed cell atlas of the regenerating caudal fin of zebrafish larvae. Intact and regenerating caudal fin were used for single-cell RNA-sequencing with the aim to provide the first integrated model of epimorphic regeneration in zebrafish larvae and demonstrate the diversity of the cells required for blastema formation. Methods: 150 of regenerating caudal fin (cut) and intact caudal fine (uncut) samples were dissociated and loaded into the 10x Genomics Chromium Platform, and sequenced using Illumina NovaSeq 6000. Conclusion: Our study constitutes a resource of the gene expression profile in intact and regenerating caudal fin of zebrafish larvae. We report the application of single-molecule-based sequencing technology for high-throughput profiling of both intact (uncut) and regenerating caudal fin samples (cut) at 24hpA. We confirmed the presence of macrophage subsets, previously described by our group to govern zebrafish fin regeneration, and identified a novel blastemal cell population.

Research on Molecular Mechanism of Zebrafish Caudal Fin Regeneration Based on Whole Transcriptome Technology

Project description:Background/Aims:The ability of regeneration varies widely from invertebrates to vertebrates. Some animals, for example, flatworms, newts, salamanders, and lower vertebrates have the outstanding ability to regenerate all the organs even the whole individual. Unfortunately, the regenerative capacity of humans extremely attenuates along with the biological evolution and this makes it difficult for humans to recover from damaged or missing organs or tissues, and even cause serious loss of function or death. However, the research on regeneration mechanisms is limited and incomplete so far. Here, we investigated the biological mechanisms of zebrafish caudal fin regeneration. Methods:The zebrafish was used as the research object to analyze the differences of mRNA and ncRNA expressed in new tissues at 0d, 3d, and 7d after caudal fin removal, and analyzed the molecular mechanism of caudal fin regeneration from the perspective of the whole transcriptome. Results: We observed that the amputated caudal fin went through a complex genetic change, especially at 3 dpa. This result showed that genes related to response to cell cycle and wounding might play a role in caudal fin regeneration.The up regulated DEGs at 3 dpa (blastema outgrowth stage) were dramatically enriched in 20 Biological Processes (FDR < 0.05), three of which were cell cycle (GO:0007049), mitotic cell cycle (GO:0000278), and cell cycle process (GO:0022402), one was response to wounding (GO:0009611), etc. Conclusion: Taken together, the results revealed that the DEGs were enriched in numerous biological processes, molecular function, cellular component, and signaling pathways, suggesting that the caudal fin regeneration is a highly complicated process of the molecular mechanism.
