Epiblast inducers capture mouse Trophectoderm Stem Cells in vitro and pattern blastoids for implantation in utero. [bulk RNA-Seq]

ABSTRACT: The embryo instructs the allocation of cell states to spatially regulate growth and functions. In the blastocyst, the formation and divergence of the trophoblast lineage ensures successful implantation and placental development. Here, we defined an optimal set of molecules secreted by the inner epiblast cells (inducers) that captures stable, highly self-renewing, pre-implantation-like mouse trophectoderm stem cells (TESCs). When exposed to suboptimal inducers, these stem cells form interconvertible subpopulations with reduced self-renewal, known as trophoblast stem cells (TSCs), and resembling peri-implantation progenitors. TECSs have an enhanced capacity to form blastoids that implant more efficiently in utero. We find that this enhanced capacity is due to epiblast inducers not only controlling trophoblast growth but also trophoblast secretion of WNT6/7B that stimulates uterine decidualization. Thus, the embryo leverages epiblast inductions to drive both the growth and decidualization potential of trophoblasts required for implantation and development.

3D-cultured blastoids model human embryogenesis from pre-implantation to early gastrulation stages

Project description:Naïve human pluripotent stem cells have the remarkable ability to self-organize into blastocyst-like structures (“blastoids”) that model lineage segregation in the pre-implantation embryo. However, the extent to which blastoids can recapitulate defining features of human post-implantation development remains unexplored. Here, we report that blastoids cultured on thick 3D extracellular matrices capture hallmarks of early post-implantation development, including epiblast lumenogenesis, rapid expansion and diversification of trophoblast lineages, and robust invasion of extravillous trophoblast cells by day 14. Extended blastoid culture results in the localized activation of primitive streak marker TBXT and the emergence of embryonic germ layers by day 21. We also show that modulation of WNT signaling alters the balance between epiblast and trophoblast fates in post-implantation blastoids. This work demonstrates that 3D-cultured blastoids offer a continuous and integrated in vitro model system of human embryonic and extraembryonic development from pre-implantation to early gastrulation stages.

Stem cell lines of the early mouse embryo

Project description:Expression profiling of stem cell lines derived from the early embryo representing the trophoblast, primitive endoderm, early epiblast (inner cell mass E3.5) and late post-implantation epiblast (E5.5). Cells were grown without feeders and harvested. Comparisons were made to provide evidence of unique gene expression between the cell lines. Specifically, pre-implantation (ICM, epiblast and primitive endoderm, and trophoblast), as well as pre-implantation and post-implantation epiblasts.

Human blastoids model blastocyst development and implantation [scRNAseq]

Project description:Shortly after fertilization, human embryos implant into the uterus. This requires the formation of a blastocyst consisting of a sphere encircling a cavity lodging the embryo proper. Stem cells can form blastocyst models, which we termed blastoid. Here we show that naïve human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) triply inhibited for the Hippo, TGFb, and ERK pathways consistently and efficiently (>70%) form blastoids that generate transcriptional pre-implantation (>95%) analogs of the three founding lineages (trophoblast, epiblast, hypoblast), and in the sequential and timely manner of blastocysts. Blastoids spontaneously form an axis marked by maturation of the polar region, which acquires the potential to specifically attach to hormonally-stimulated endometrial cells, as during in utero implantation. Such human blastoids are scalable, versatile, and ethical models to explore human implantation and development.

Human blastoids model blastocyst development and implantation [Bulk RNA-seq]

Project description:Shortly after fertilization, human embryos implant into the uterus. This requires the formation of a blastocyst consisting of a sphere encircling a cavity lodging the embryo proper. Appropriate stem cells can form a blastocyst model, which we termed blastoid. Here we show that naive human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) triply inhibited for the Hippo, TGF-β, and ERK pathways consistently and efficiently (>70%) form blastoids that generate transcriptional pre-implantation analogs of the three founding lineages (trophoblast, epiblast, primitive endoderm; >97%) according to the sequence and pace of blastocyst development. Blastoids spontaneously form an axis marked by the maturation of the polar region, which acquires the potential to specifically attach to hormonally stimulated endometrial cells, as during in utero implantation. Such human blastoids are scalable, versatile, and ethical models to explore human implantation and development.

Endometrial extracellular vesicle decidualization

Project description:Proper decidualization is vital in preparation for a potential embryo receptivity, placentation, menstrual health and subsequent endometrial regeneration. Given the importance of extracellular vesicles (EVs) in intercellular communication, and recently in embryo implantation and indicators of menstrual cycle and fertility, we investigated their role during decidualization. Overall, this study provides an insight into distinct variation in sEV composition depending upon the level of decidualization of endometrial stromal cells, with the signaling potential to coordinate endometrial health ranging from embryo implantation, facilitating placentation and subsequent endometrial regeneration.

Human blastoids model blastocyst development and implantation

Project description:About one week after fertilization, human embryos implant into the uterus. This necessitates the formation of a blastocyst consisting of a sphere encircling a cavity lodging the embryo proper. Stem cells can form a blastocyst model, which we termed blastoid. Here we show that naive human pluripotent stem cells (PXGL hPSCs) efficiently (>70%) form blastoids generating blastocyst-stage analogs of the 3 founding lineages (>97% trophectoderm, epiblast, and primitive endoderm) according to the sequence and to the pace of blastocyst development. Blastoids form the first axis and we observe that the epiblast induces the maturation of the polar trophectoderm that consequently acquires the specific and transient potential to attach to hormonally-stimulated endometrial cells. Such human blastoids are faithful, scalable, versatile, and ethical models to explore human implantation and development.

Identified key factors in early human embryos and lineage-specific trophoblast proteome profiles, correlated with transcriptomic analyses. This direct proteomic analysis provides a comprehensive analysis of the dynamic protein expression in human embryos during pre-implantation development and a powerful resource to enable further mechanistic studies on human trophoblast development and function.

Transgene directed induction of a human embryo model from pluripotent stem cells

Project description:The human embryo undergoes morphogenetic transformations following implantation into the uterus and yet our knowledge of this crucial stage is limited by the inability to observe the embryo in vivo. Here, we establish a stem cell-derived human post-implantation embryo model comprised of embryonic and extraembryonic tissues. Overexpression of the transcription factors GATA6 and SOX17 or GATA3 and AP2g in hESCs allowed us to generate hypoblast-like and trophoblast-like cells, respectively. We established conditions to combine these extraembryonic-like cells with wildtype embryonic stem cells and promote their self-organization into structures that mimic aspects of the post-implantation human embryo. These aggregates contain an inner pluripotent epiblast-like domain surrounded by both hypoblast- and trophoblast-like tissues. We show that this human embryo stem cell model robustly generates several cell types, including amnion-, extraembryonic mesenchyme- and primordial germ cell-like cells. Using perturbation experiments, we demonstrated that these populations arise in response to BMP signaling. This model also allowed us to identify an inhibitory role for SOX17 in the specification of anterior hypoblast-like cells. Modulation of the subpopulations in the hypoblast-like compartment demonstrated that these extraembryonic-like cells impact epiblast-like domain differentiation, highlighting functional tissue-tissue crosstalk. In conclusion, this modular, tractable model of the human embryo that includes both embryonic- and extraembryonic-like cells has the potential to probe key questions of human post-implantation development.
