β-catenin, Tcf7l1, and Esrrb mediate seeding density-dependent gene regulation during mouse embryonic stem cell differentiation

ABSTRACT: Cell density affects numerous biological processes, including gene expression and cell fate specification. However, mechanistic understanding of how changes in cell density alter the transcriptome is lacking. Here, we reveal that the expression of thousands of genes in mouse embryonic stem cells is affected by cell density. Furthermore, we find that low cell density enhances the efficiency of differentiation. Mechanistically, β-catenin is localized primarily to adherens junctions during conditions of high cell-cell contact. At low seeding density during differentiation, we observe that β-catenin translocates to the nucleus and co-activates target genes in concert with Tcf7l1, leading to the induction of lineage markers. Meanwhile, Esrrb sustains the expression of high density-specific, pluripotency-associated genes, but low seeding density differentiation reduces its occupancy on its target loci. Our demonstration of factors that transcriptionally regulate genes responsive to cell density contributes to our understanding of gene regulation in stem cells and has implications for reproducibility, as density can vary between substantially labs and experimental protocols.

Genome-wide maps of TCF7L1 binding during early adipogenesis

Project description:Here we show through genome-wide binding studies that transcription factor 7-like 1 (TCF7L1) represses structure-related genes during adipogenesis. Intriguingly, TCF7L1 is induced in a cell contact-dependent manner by confluency in preadipocytes and is required for adipocyte differentiation by repressing transcription of cell structure genes. TCF7L1 is also sufficient to bestow adipogenic potential upon non-adipogenic cells. These results implicate TCF7L1 as a novel adipogenic competency factor that uniquely determines adipogenic fate through cell structure organization required for adipocyte gene activation. Examination of TCF7L1 binding in preadipocytes treated for 24 hours with adipogenic stimuli.

Genome-wide map of Tcf/Lef transcription factors, β-catenin, Six2 and chromatin marks in mouse nephron progenitor cells

Project description:During embryonic kidney development, nephron progenitor cells (NPCs) self-renew and differentiate into all cells in mature nephrons. The Wnt signaling components Wnt9b and β-catenin are required for both NPC self-renewal and differentiation. A low level of Wnt/β-catenin are associated with NPC self-renewal while a high level with differentiation. To investigate the transcriptional mechanisms behind Wnt/β-catenin-driven regulation of NPCs states, we modeled NPC self-renewal and differentiation in vitro with NPEM (Brown et al., 2015) supplemented with low (1.25 μM) or high (5 μM) concentration of CHIR22091 (CHIR), a small molecule GSK3β inhibitor that stabilizes β-catenin. We have found the Tcf/Lef family repressors Tcf7l1 and Tcf7l2 are enriched in low CHIR condition, while the activators Tcf7 and Lef1 in high CHIR condition, correlating with the NPC differentiation program transiting from being repressed to activated. To identify direct transcriptional targets of Tcf/Lef factors and β-catenin, here we generated ChIP-Seq data from primary NPC, as well as NPC cultured in low and high CHIR concentration.

TCF7L1 controls tuft cell differentiation

Project description:To study the functions of Tcf7l1 during gut development, we have ablated Tcf7l1 specifically in the intestinal epithelium using Shh-Cre. To determine transcriptional changes upon loss of Tcf7l1, we have isolated EpCAM-positive epithelial cells from mouse embryos using fluorescence activated cell sorting (FACS) and performed RNA-sequencing analysis.

Wnt/TCF7L1 transcriptional repressor axis drives primitive endoderm formation by antagonizing naive and formative pluripotency

Project description:Early during preimplantation development and in heterogeneous mouse embryonic stem cells (mESC) culture, pluripotent cells are specified towards either the primed epiblast or the primitive endoderm (PE) lineage. Canonical Wnt signaling is crucial for safeguarding naive pluripotency and embryo implantation, yet the role and relevance of canonical Wnt inhibition during early mammalian development remains unknown. Here, we demonstrate that transcriptional repression exerted by Wnt/TCF7L1 promotes PE differentiation of mESCs and in preimplantation inner cell mass. Time-series RNA sequencing and promoter occupancy data reveal that TCF7L1 binds and represses genes encoding essential naive pluripotency factors and indispensable regulators of the formative pluripotency program, including Otx2 and Lef1. Consequently, TCF7L1 promotes pluripotency exit and suppresses epiblast lineage formation, thereby driving cells into PE specification. Conversely, TCF7L1 is required for PE specification as deletion of Tcf7l1 abrogates PE differentiation without restraining epiblast priming. Taken together, our study underscores the importance of transcriptional Wnt inhibition in regulating lineage specification in ESCs and preimplantation embryo development as well as identifies TCF7L1 as key regulator of this process.

β-catenin associated protein complex maintains ground state mouse embryonic stem cell by regulating lineage development

Project description:Mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells cultured in defined medium with MEK and GSK3 inhibitors (2i) resemble the pre-implantation epiblast in the ground state, with full development capacity including the somatic lineages and the germline. Although β-catenin is known to be crucial for naive pluripotency of ES cells, the mechanism is not fully understood. Here we showed that β-catenin interacted with a repressive protein complex to maintain the ground state of ES cells by fine-tuning their lineage development potential. Absence of β-catenin impaired ES cell self-renewal without affecting the core self-renewal circuitry of Oct4, Sox2 and Nanog as well as other pluripotency factors. However, β-catenin-deficient cells showed a primed state transcriptional signature with perturbed expression of germline and neuronal lineage genes. Knockdown of Tcf7l1, the repressor in canonical Wnt signaling pathway, did not completely rescue the β-catenin-deficient phenotype of ES cells. Mechanistically, β-catenin formed a novel biochemical complex with E2F6, HP1γ and HMGA2 to restrain ES cells from differentiation by co-occupying the promoters of germline and neuronal lineage regulators independent of TCF7L1. Overall, out work showed that β-catenin maintained ground state ES cells by orchestrating their development plasticity through a repressive protein complex with E2F6, HP1γ and HMGA2.
