Reprogramming of a B cell line into macrophages

ABSTRACT: Transcription factor induced reprogramming of one specialized cell type into another is a promising approach for regenerative medicine. However, the process still remains poorly understood, in large part because of the lack of adequate experimental models. Here we describe a robust cell reprogramming system consisting of a B cell line with an inducible form of C/EBPa that can be converted into macrophages with essentially 100% efficiency in only 2 to 3 days. The conversion involves reciprocal changes in cell surface antigen expression, increase in cell granularity and size, alterations in cellular structures, formation of membrane extensions, acquisition of phagocytic capacity and an increased inflammatory responsiveness as well as migratory activity. Analysis of the transcriptome shows complex reciprocal regulation of B cell and macrophage genes, including transcription factors required for the formation of the two lineages. The fact that the cells become irreversibly committed to a macrophage fate within 1 to 2 days after activation of C/EBPa show that they are truly reprogrammed. The system should be useful to study epigenetic and cell biological mechanisms of transcription factor induced cell reprogramming.

Logical modelling of lymphoid and myeloid cell specification and trans-differentiation [ChIPseq]

Project description:To identify nez putative transcriptionnal regulations controlling the specification of B cell and Macrophage, we performed ChIPSeq in a pre-B cell line containing an inducible form of the transcription factor C/EBPa (C10). We performed ChIP-seq against Foxo1 in uninduced b cell, and for Ebf1 in uninduced or after several times of C/EBPa induction.

The trophectoderm acts as a niche for the inner cell mass through IL-6 signaling [reprogramming_embryo]

Project description:IL-6 has been shown to be required for somatic cell reprogramming into induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). However, how the cytokine is regulated and if it plays a role during embryo development remains unknown. Here we describe that IL-6 is strictly necessary for C/EBPa-enhanced reprogramming of B cells into iPSCs but not for B cell to macrophage transdifferentiation. C/EBPa induces the expression of both Il6 and Il6ra genes in B cells and in PSCs. During preimplantation embryo development C/EBPa is expressed in blastocysts where it is required for the maintenance of Il6. The expression of Cebpa is enriched in trophectoderm together with Il6 whereas the receptor gene Il6ra is predominantly expressed in the inner cell mass (ICM), in both mouse and humans. Blastocysts secrete IL-6 and neutralization of the cytokine delays the morula to blastocyst transition. Our study indicates that the trophectoderm acts as a niche for the ICM through the secretion of C/EBPa-regulated IL-6, facilitating efficient blastocyst development.

Hematopoietic cell differentiation is required for initiation of acute myeloid leukemia [Microarray expression]

Project description:Leukemia initiating cells (LICs) of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) may arise from self-renewing hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and from committed progenitors. However, it remains unclear how leukemia-associated oncogenes instruct LIC formation from cells of different origins and if differentiation along the normal hematopoietic hierarchy is involved. Here, using murine models with the driver mutations MLL-AF9 or MOZ-TIF2, we found that regardless of the transformed cell types, myelomonocytic differentiation to the granulocyte macrophage progenitor (GMP) stage is critical for LIC generation. Blocking myeloid differentiation through disrupting the lineage-restricted transcription factor C/EBPa eliminates GMPs, blocks normal granulopoiesis, and prevents AML development. In contrast, restoring myeloid differentiation through inflammatory cytokines “rescues” AML transformation. Our findings identify myeloid differentiation as a critical step in LIC formation and AML development, thus guiding new therapeutic approaches. Primary KSL, CMP, and GMP cells from wildtype controls and C/Ebpa knockouts were used for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. We also compared the microarray samples of leukemic granulocyte macrophage progenitor compartments (L-GMPs) from MLL-AF9 transformed control or cytokine rescued C/EBPa KO leukemic mouse bone marrow and their secondary recipients with those non-Leukemia KSLs and CMPs from MLL-AF9 transduecd KO recipients with no leukemia development.

Overcoming the stochastic phase of iPS cells reprogramming by a pulse of C/EBPÎ± [array]

Project description:Somatic cell reprogramming into pluripotent stem cells induced by Oct4, Sox2, Klf4 and Myc (OSKM) occurs at low frequencies and with a considerable delay involving a stochastic phase. In contrast, transdifferentiation of B cells into macrophages induced by C/EBPÎ± is fully efficient and initiated almost immediately. We now discovered that a pulse of C/EBPÎ± in B cell precursors followed by OSKM expression dramatically enhances reprogramming to pluripotency, overcoming the stochastic phase. The cells simultaneously activate mesenchymal-epithelial transition and pluripotency genes to high levels within 2 days, correlating with promoter demethylation and accessibility to Oct4 binding. The conditioning effect of C/EBPÎ± is shared with C/EBPÎ² but not with transcription factors that induce erythroid, neuronal and muscle fates, which are innocuous or inhibitory. Surprisingly, OSKM induce the transient upregulation of macrophage genes in B cells, including Cebpa and Cebpb, as well as trophectoderm genes. Since both C/EBPs are functionally expressed in trophoblasts their unique pluripotency-conditioning capacity might reflect an early embryonic function. Our findings have removed a major hurdle in elucidating mechanisms that establish pluripotency. Change in gene expression during reprogramming of B cells into iPS cells, comparing the time 0 B cells to with cells induced with OKSM at different time points pre-treated or not with estradiol to induce C/EBPa.

C/EBPa controls acquisition and maintenance of adult hematopoietic stem cell quiescence

Project description:In blood, the transcription factor C/EBPa is essential for myeloid differentiation and has been implicated in regulating self-renewal of fetal liver hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). However, its function in adult HSCs is unknown. Here, using an inducible knockout model, we found that C/EBPa deficient adult HSCs underwent a pronounced expansion with enhanced proliferation, characteristics resembling fetal liver HSCs. Consistently, transcription profiling of C/EBPa deficient HSCs revealed a gene expression program similar to fetal liver HSCs. Moreover we observed that age-specific C/EBPa expression correlated with its inhibitory effect on the HSC cell cycle. Mechanistically, we identified N-Myc as a C/EBPa downstream target. C/EBPa upregulation during HSC transition from an active fetal state to a quiescent adult state was accompanied by down-regulation of N-Myc, and loss of C/EBPa resulted in de-repression of NMyc. Our data establish that C/EBPa acts as a molecular switch between fetal and adult states of HSC in part via transcriptional repression of the proto-oncogene N-Myc.

Tet2 facilitates the de-repression of myeloid target genes during C/EBPa induced transdifferentiation of pre-B cells

Project description:Tet2 is an enzyme that hydroxylates methylated cytosines and has been implicated in hematopoietic differentiation and the formation of myeloid malignancies when mutated. An ideal system to study the role of Tet2 in myelopoeisis is C/EBPa induced transdifferentiation of pre-B cells into macrophages, where many myeloid genes become rapidly upregulated. Here we found that C/EBPa binds to upstream regions of Tet2 and that the gene becomes activated. Tet2 knockdowns impaired the upregulation of macrophage markers as well as phagocytic capacity, suggesting that the enzyme is required for both early and late stages of myeloid differentiation. A slightly weaker effect was seen in primary cells with a Tet2 ablation. Expression arrays of transdifferentiating cells with Tet2 knockdowns permitted the identification of a small subset of myeloid genes whose upregulation was blunted. Activation of these target genes was accompanied by a rapid increase of promoter hydroxy-methylation. Our observations indicate that Tet2 helps C/EBPa to rapidly de-repress myeloid genes during the conversion of pre-B cells into macrophages. Gene expression was measured in a control and Tet2kd mouse preB cell line (called Haftl) harboring an inducible form of C/EBPa. Expression was measured in starting cells and cells induced to transdifferentiate into macrophage-like cells for 24 hours. Technical duplicates for each treatment and time were assayed.
