Liver colonisation by colorectal cancer metastases requires YAP-controlled plasticity at the micrometastatic stage

ABSTRACT: Human engineered CRC organoids were equipped with the intestinal stem cell reporter STAR reflecting transcriptional activity of ASCL2. Successfully growing organoids display heterogeneous STAR expression and grow into big structures, while growth-compromised organoids stay small and are either entirely STAR-pos or STAR-neg.

Specific labeling of stem cell activity in human colorectal organoidsusing an ASCL2-responsive minigene

Project description:Organoid technology provides the possibility to culture human colontissue and patient-derived colorectal cancers (CRC) while maintainingall functional and phenotypic characteristics. Labeling of human colonstem cells (CoSCs), especially in normal and benign tumor organoids, ischallenging and therefore limits usability of multi-patient organoidlibraries for CoSC research. Here, we developed STAR (STem cell Ascl2Reporter), a minimal enhancer/promoter element that reportstranscriptional activity of ASCL2, a master regulator of LGR5+ CoSCfate. Among others via lentiviral infection, STAR minigene labels stemcells in normal as well as in multiple engineered and patient-derivedCRC organoids of different stage and genetic make-up. STAR revealed thatstem cell driven differentiation hierarchies and the capacity of cellfate plasticity (de-differentiation) are present at all stages of humanCRC development. The flexible and user-friendly nature of STARapplications in combination with organoid technology will facilitatebasic research on human adult stem cell biology.

Comparative transcriptomics reveals circadian and pluripotency networks as two pillars of longevity regulation

Project description:Mammals differ more than 100-fold in maximum lifespan. Here, we conducted comparative transcriptomics on 26 species with diverse lifespans. We identified thousands of genes with expression levels negatively or positively correlated with a species' maximum lifespan (Neg- or Pos-MLS genes). Neg-MLS genes are primarily involved in energy metabolism and inflammation. Pos-MLS genes show enrichment in DNA repair, microtubule organization, and RNA transport. Expression of Neg- and Pos-MLS genes is modulated by interventions, including mTOR and PI3K inhibition. Regulatory networks analysis showed that Neg-MLS genes are under circadian regulation possibly to avoid persistent high expression, whereas Pos-MLS genes are targets of master pluripotency regulators OCT4 and NANOG and are upregulated during somatic cell reprogramming. Pos-MLS genes are highly expressed during embryogenesis but significantly downregulated after birth. This work provides targets for anti-aging interventions by defining pathways correlating with longevity across mammals and uncovering circadian and pluripotency networks as central regulators of longevity.

Effect of loss of Gfi1b on hematopietic stem cells

Project description:Using Gfi1b conditional mice, deletion of gfi1b in the hematopietic system was induced by injecting MxCre tg Gfi1bfl/fl mice with pIpC. 30 days after injection, Cd150 pos, Cd 48 neg, Lin neg Sca and c-kit pos stem cells were sortrted from Gfi1bfl/fl and Mxcre tg Gfi1bfl/fl mice and analysed. We used the mouse Affymetrix Gene ST Array.

Ascl2 acts as an R-spondin/Wnt responsive switch to control stemness in intestinal crypts [ChIP-seq]

Project description:Wnt signals control three functions of intestinal crypts: maintenance of Lgr5 stem cells, proliferation of transit-amplifying daughters and formation of Paneth cells. Here, we study how the Wnt effector Î²-catenin/Tcf4 cooperates with the Wnt-activated transcription factor Ascl2 to control a stem cell transcription program. DNA elements that are co-occupied and synergistically regulated by Ascl2 and Tcf4 specifically map to stem cell genes. In vitro, Tcf4-/- mini-guts are rescued by Ascl2 expression, while Ascl2-/- organoids are rescued by Wnt signaling. A direct auto-activatory loop leads to an on/off expression pattern of Ascl2 with a threshold that depends on the previous state. Wnt/R-spondin1 activates this loop. This mechanism interprets Wnt levels in crypts and translates this continuous signal into a discrete Ascl2 âonâ or âoffâ decision. In turn Ascl2, together with Î²-catenin/Tcf, activates stem cell genes. Thus, Ascl2 forms a transcriptional 'stemness switch' that is both Wnt-responsive and Wnt-dependent Examination of Tcf4, B-catenin and Ascl2 DNA occupancy in murine intestinal organoids and human colorectal cancer cell lines *** Original raw files unavailable due to loss during backup ***
