Overactivation of wound healing-associated TGF-beta responses in EZH2-deficient decidual stromal cells.

ABSTRACT: Our objective was to identify genes upregulated by TGF-beta in control and Ezh2 cKO decidual stromal cells (DSCs), and to compare this set of genes with a previously identified gene set of H3K27me3-marked decidual genes that are putatively silenced by EZH2/PRC2 (Nancy et al. JCI. 2018). We also wanted to assess baseline (BL) gene expression in control and Ezh2 cKO DSCs, and compare it to an RNA-seq analysis of differential gene expression in whole tissue Ezh2 cKO and control decidua. RNA was isolated from untreated and TGF-beta treated decidual stromal cells from control and Ezh2 cKO mice. Sequencing provided was 706 million total reads with an average of 82.2% of these reads aligning uniquely to the mouse genome. Reads uniquely mapped to known mRNAs were used to identify gene expression changes between housing conditions using DESeq2. TGF-beta induced 638 protein-coding genes in EZH2-deficient DSCs versus 480 in control DSCs (with a 295 gene overlap), demonstrating that EZH2-deficient DSCs are transcriptionally more responsive to TGF- (P=0.0025, Fisher’s exact test). Within the 638 genes, activated fibroblast signature genes were highly over-represented. TGF-target genes were 2.7-fold over-represented within the set of genes with higher expression in EZH2-deficient DSCs at baseline (BL; i.e., when neither EZH2-deficient nor control DSCs were treated with TGF-beta; P<1x10-20) . 741 genes were overexpressed in Ezh2 cKO DSCs compared to control DSCs, and 904 genes were underexpressed. Moreover, by comparing to our laboratory's previous CHIP-Seq analysis (Nancy et al. JCI 2018), we noted that genes overexpressed in cKO mice were enriched in previously identified H3K27me3-marked genes (P<1x10-26).

Broad deregulation of fibroblast activation and wound healing genes within Ezh2 cKO decidua.

Project description:Our objective was to identify genes differentially expressed between control and Ezh2 cKO decidua, and to compare this set of genes with a previously identified gene set of H3K27me3-marked decidual genes that are putatively silenced by EZH2/PRC2 (Nancy et al. JCI. 2018). RNA was isolated from whole tissue decidua and myometrium of control and Ezh2 cKO mice. Sequencing provided was 731 million total reads with an average of 84.5% of these reads aligning uniquely to the mouse genome. Reads uniquely mapped to known mRNAs were used to identify gene expression changes between housing conditions using DESeq2. We found that 2530 protein-coding genes were differentially expressed within the decidua and 521 were differentially expressed in the myometrium (FDR<0.05, excluding genes whose normalized read counts were less than 30 averaged across samples). Hypergeometric analysis revealed a strong enrichment for previously identified H3K27me3 targets within genes overexpressed in Ezh2 cKO decidua.

Spatiotemporal insight into early pregnancy governed by immune-featured stromal cells [RNA-seq]

Project description:Endometrial decidualization connecting embryo implantation and placentation is transient, but essential for successful pregnancy, which however is not systematically investigated. Here, by using a novel single-cell spatial transcriptomic profiling technology (scStereo-seq), we were able to visualize and define key and dynamic functional decidual hubs assembled by distinct immune, endothelial, trophoblast and decidual stromal cells (DSCs) during early pregnancy in mice. We classified DSC subclusters and described their transdifferentiation trajectory controlled by transcription factor cascades. Interestingly, we discovered a novel type of DSCs expressing immune cell-specific genes, termed immune DSCs (iDSCs). Whereas immature DSCs attracted immune cells and induced decidual angiogenesis at the mesenchymal-to-epithelial transition (MET) hub during decidualization initiation, iDSCs enabled immune cell recruitment, angiogenesis facilitation and cytotoxic effect induction to form immune cell assembling and angiogenesis hubs, which eventually allow decidual homeostasis maintenance and decidualization-to-placentation transition. We spatiotemporally decode mouse early pregnancy events controlled by immune DSCs.

Spatiotemporal insight into early pregnancy governed by immune-featured stromal cells [Spatial Transcriptomics]

Project description:Endometrial decidualization connecting embryo implantation and placentation is transient but essential for successful pregnancy, which, however, is not systematically investigated. Here, we use a scStereo-seq technology to spatially visualize and deﬁne the dynamic functional decidual hubs assembled by distinct immune, endothelial, trophoblast, and decidual stromal cells (DSCs) in early pregnant mice. We unravel the DSC transdifferentiation trajectory and surprisingly discover a dual-featured type of immune-featured DSCs (iDSCs). We ﬁnd that immature DSCs attract immune cells and induce decidual angiogenesis at the mesenchymalepithelial transition hub during decidualization initiation. iDSCs enable immune cell recruitment and suppression, govern vascularization, and promote cytolysis at immune cell assembling and vascular hubs, respectively, to establish decidual homeostasis at a later stage. Interestingly, dysfunctional and spatially disordered iDSCs cause abnormal accumulation of immune cells in the vascular hub, which disrupts decidual hub speciﬁcation and eventually leads to pregnancy complications in DBA/2-mated CBA/J mice.

The mammalian decidual cell evolved from a cellular stress response

Project description:Among animal species, cell types vary greatly in terms of number and kind. The broad range of number of cell types among species suggests that cell type origination is a significant source of evolutionary novelty. The molecular mechanisms giving rise to novel cell types, however, are poorly understood. Here we show that a novel cell type of eutherians mammals, the decidual stromal cell (DSC), evolved by rewiring an ancestral cellular stress response. We isolated the precursor cell type of DSCs, endometrial stromal fibroblasts (ESFs), from the opossum Monodelphis domestica. We show that, in opossum ESF, the majority of decidual core regulatory genes respond to decidualizing signals, but do not regulate decidual effector genes. Rather, in opossum ESF, decidual transcription factors function in apoptotic and oxidative stress response. We propose that the rewiring of cellular stress responses could be a general mechanism for the evolution of novel cell types.

miR-638 promotes melanoma metastasis and protects melanoma cells from apoptosis and autophagy (mRNA)

Project description:MicroRNA (miRNA) expression profiling identified miR-638 as one of the most significantly overexpressed miRNAs in metastatic lesions compared with primary melanomas. miR-638 enhanced the tumourigenic properties of melanoma cells in vitro and lung colonization in vivo. mRNA expression profiling of miR-638 and antagomir-transduced cells identified new candidate genes as miR-638 targets, the majority of which is involved in p53-mediated apoptosis regulation. miR-638 depletion stimulated expression of p53 and its downstream target genes and induced apoptosis and autophagy in melanoma cells. miR-638 promoter analysis revealed transcription factor associated protein 2-α (TFAP2A) as a direct negative regulator of miR-638. Further analyses provided strong evidence for a double negative regulatory feedback loop between miR-638 and TFAP2A. Taken together, miR-638 may support melanoma progression by suppressing p53-mediated apoptosis pathways and by targeting the transcriptional repressor TFAP2A.
