Revisiting the Role of Notch in Nephron Segmentation Confirms A Role for Proximal Fate Selection During Mouse and Human Nephrogenesis

ABSTRACT: Notch signaling promotes maturation of nephron epithelia, but its proposed contribution to nephron segmentation into proximal and distal domains has been called into doubt. We leveraged single cell and bulk RNA-seq, quantitative immunofluorescent lineage/fate tracing, and genetically modified human iPSC to revisit this question in developing mouse kidneys and human kidney organoids. We confirmed that Notch signaling is needed for maturation of all nephron lineages, and thus mature lineage markers fail to detect a fate bias. By contrast, early markers identified a distal fate bias in cells lacking Notch2, and a concomitant increase in early proximal and podocyte fates in cells expressing hyperactive Notch1 was observed. Orthogonal support for a conserved role for Notch signaling in the distal/proximal axis segmentation is provided by the demonstration that Nicastrin-deficient hiPSCs-derived organoids differentiate into TFA2B+ distal tubule and CDH1 connecting segment progenitors, but not into HNF4A+ or LTL+ proximal progenitors.

Enhanced metanephric specification to functional proximal tubule enables toxicity screening and infectious disease modelling in kidney organoids

Project description:Improved specification of metanephric nephron progenitors in conditions that prolong differentiation while simultaneously preventing spontaneous nephron induction resulted in proximal tubule (PT)-enhanced kidney organoids. PT-enhanced organoids exhibited improved PT maturation, with elongated and aligned nephron segments as well as distinct loops of Henle. The striking proximo-distal orientation of nephrons was shown to result from localised WNT antagonism originating from the centre of the organoid.

Distal nephron plasticity allows the induction of ureteric tip and stalk for the modelling of collecting duct disease

Project description:During development, distinct progenitors contribute to the nephrons versus the ureteric epithelium of the kidney. Indeed, previous pluripotent stem cell-derived models of kidney tissue either contain nephrons or pattern specifically to the ureteric epithelium. By reanalysing the transcriptional distinction between distal nephron and ureteric epithelium in human fetal kidney, we show here that while existing nephron-containing kidney organoids contain distal nephron epithelium and no ureteric epithelium, this distal nephron segment alone displays significant in vitro plasticity and can adopt a ureteric epithelial tip identity when isolated and cultured in defined conditions. “Induced” ureteric epithelium cultures can be cryopreserved, serially passaged without loss of identity and transitioned towards a collecting duct fate. Indeed, cultures harbouring loss-of-function mutations in PKHD1 recapitulate the cystic phenotype associated with autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease.

Gene expression patterns in developing intestinal organoids exposed to prolonged FGF4- and Wnt-signaling

Project description:Based on the ability of FGF and/or WNT signaling to control posterior fate and intestinal lineage commitment, several groups have reported that treating mouse or human Pluripotent Stem Cell (PSC) derived definitive endoderm (DE) with small molecules or ligands that activate WNT signaling, or a combination of WNT and FGF signaling can induce an intestinal fate in human DE. In this current study, we leverage hESC derived human intestinal organoids (HIOs) to test the hypothesis that the duration of exposure to high levels of FGF and WNT signaling controls regional intestinal identity, with shorter durations generating intestine similar to the proximal duodenum, and longer durations distalizing HIOs to become similar to jejunum/ileum. Our results demonstrate that exposing human definitive endoderm (DE) cultures to short or long incubations of media that activate WNT and FGF siganling results in gene and protein expression profiles that are consistent with tissue that has been patterned into proximal (duodenum) or distal (ileum) small intestine, respectively.

Expression data from LSK WT and LSK NcstnKO

Project description:Notch signaling is one of the central regulators of differentiation in a variety of organisms and tissue types. Within the hematopoietic system, Notch is essential for the emergence of definitive HSC during fetal life and controls adult HSC differentiation to the T-cell lineage. Notch activation is controlled by the gamma-secretase complex complex, composed of presenilin, nicastrin (Ncstn), anterior pharynx-1 (Aph1), and presenilin enhancer-2 To determine other role of Notch signaling in HSC we designed a conditional mouse model of Nicastrin deletion. WT and KO HSC were analysed to determined genes controlled by Notch signaling. Bone marrow lineage negative, cKit+, Sca1+ cells were sorted from WT and Ncstn KO littermates for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays

Chromatin remodelers interact with Eya1 and Six2 to control nephron progenitor cell self-renewal maintenance

Project description:Eya1 interacts with Six1/2 to induce nephron fate and promote nephron progenitor self-renewal. Haploinsufficiency for these genes in humans causes kidney agenesis or hypoplasia. However, how the Eya1-centered network operates remains elusive. Here we identify Eya1's interacting factors via mass-spectrometry and show that Eya1 and Six2 interact with Brg1-based SWI/SNF chromatin-remodeling complex in the kidney. Depletion of Brg1 results in lack of metanephric mesenchyme and depletion of nephron progenitor cells, which is linked to loss of Eya1 expression. Transcriptional profiling reveals conspicuous downregulation of the proto-oncogene Pbx1 and the Dchs1/Fat4 signaling but premature upregulation of a large subset of genes for podocyte lineages and aberrant activation of oncogenic factors in Brg1-deficent cell. ChIP-seq identifies Brg1-occupancy to enhancers at Pbx1 to a distal enhancer of Eya1 that drives nephron progenitor-specific expression. We demonstrate Six2-dependent Brg1 enrichment to the proximal-promoter of Mycn and two distal enhancers of Pbx1, all of which govern nephron progenitor-specific expression in response to binding to Six2. Together, our results suggest a possible mechanism through which the functional specificity of Brg1-BAFs and Eya1-Six2 in cell cycle regulation and self-renewal of the nephron progenitors may be in part achieved.
