Lethal phenotype-based database screening identifies ceramide as a negative regulator of primitive streak formation

ABSTRACT: In early embryogenesis, the primitive streak (PrS) generates the mesendoderm and is essential for organogenesis. However, because the PrS is a minute and transient tissue, elucidating the mechanism of its formation had been challenging. We had identified ceramide metabolism to regulate PrS formation. We investigated how C2 ceramide, a cell-permeable form of ceramide, affects gene expression for PrS formation.

Induction of pluripotency in human somatic cells via a primitive streak-like state

Project description:During mammalian embryonic development, the primitive streak is initiates the differentiation of pluripotent epiblast cells into germ layers. Pluripotency can be reacquired in committed somatic cells using a combination of handful transcription factors, such as OCT3/4, SOX2, KLF4 and c-MYC (hereafter referred to as OSKM), albeit with low efficiency . Here we show that, during the OSKM-induced reprogramming process toward pluripotency in human cells, intermediate cells transiently show gene expression profiles resembling mesendoderm, which is a major component of the primitive streak. Based on these findings, we discover that forkhead box H1 (FOXH1), a transcription factor required for anterior primitive streak specification during early development, significantly enhances the reprogramming efficiency of human fibroblasts by promoting their maturation, including the mesenchymal to epithelial transition and the activation of late pluripotent markers. These results demonstrate that during the reprogramming process, human somatic cells go through a transient state that resembles mesendoderm.

Hypoxia induces a transcriptional primitive streak signature in ES cells and enhances lineage patterning in gastruloids

Project description:The cellular microenvironment shapes stem cell identity and differentiation capacity. Mammalian early embryos are exposed to hypoxia in vivo and benefit from hypoxic culture in vitro. Yet, how different components of the hypoxia response impact stem cell transcriptional networks and lineage choices remains unclear. Here we investigated the effect of acute and prolonged hypoxia on stem cell states and differentiation efficiencies of embryonic and extraembryonic cells. We show that prolonged hypoxia enhances differentiation of embryonic stem (ES) cells towards the mesendoderm lineage by transcriptionally priming cells with a primitive streak signature including Wnt3 and T expression. Exposure to hypoxia in ES culture or during formation of gastrulation-mimicking organoids (gastruloids) moderates T expression and enhances structural complexity. Hypoxic gastruloids generated without exogenous Wnt induction can spontaneously elongate and self-organize. Direct gene regulation by Hif1a, combined with DNA demethylation and metabolic rewiring modulate the transcriptional response and phenotypic outcome. Our findings highlight the influence of the microenvironment on stem cell function and provide a rationale supportive of applying physiological conditions in synthetic embryo models.

Expression Profile of Chicken Primitive Streak (HH4) Tissues

Expression Profile of Chicken Primitive Streak (HH4) Tissues

Project description:In birds and mammals, all mesoderm cells are generated from the primitive streak. Nascent mesoderm cells contain unique dorso-ventral (D/V) identities depending on their relative ingression position along the streak. Molecular mechanisms controlling this initial phase of mesoderm diversification are not well-understood. Using chick model, we generated high-quality transcriptomic datasets of different streak regions and analyzed their molecular heterogeneity. Streak tissues were dissected from stage-matched HH4 chick embryos and were further divided into four equal pieces along its anterio-posterior length (termed “A”, “B”, “C” and “D”, with “A” representing most anterior and therefore most dorsal and “D” most posterior and therefore most ventral). Each of the four regions was represented by three independent samples (n=3), with each sample containing 5-7 μg total RNA derived from 85-93 pooled pieces. 5 μg of RNA from each sample were used to screen Affymetrix Chicken Genome Array without an amplification step.

PI3Kβ and β-Catenin mediate EZH2 removal from promoters controlling human ESC stemness and primitive streak gene expression

Project description:The mechanism governing the transition of human embryonic stem cells towards differentiated cells is only partially understood. To explore this transition, the activity and expression of the ubiquitous phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3K α and β) were modulated. This study reports a pathway that dismantles the repression imposed by the EZH2 polycomb repressor on an essential stemness gene, NODAL, and on transcription factors required at differentiation to trigger primitive streak formation. The primitive streak is the site where gastrulation begins to give rise to the three embryonic cell layers from which all human tissues derive. The pathway involves an essential PI3Kβ-non-catalytic action for control of active-RAC1 levels, c-Jun-Nterminal-kinase activation and nuclear β-CATENIN accumulation. β-CATENIN deposition at promoters triggers the release of EZH2 repressor permitting both stemness maintenance (through control of NODAL) and correct differentiation, by allowing primitive streak master genes expression. PI3Kβ -mediated epigenetic control of EZH2/β-CATENIN might be modulated to direct stem cell differentiation.

Aging stress and ceramide dependent RNA sequencing expression profiling depends on ceramide synthase 6

Project description:The bioactive sphingolipid ceramide, generated by ceramide synthase, is an adaptive stress effector induced in response to various stress stimuli such as aging. In fact, ceramide synthase (CerS) was first discovered in yeast as a longevity assurance gene (LAG1), as the reduced ceramide generation consequent to LAG1 deletion increased longevity. There are six homologues of mammalian LAG1/ceramide synthases (CerS1-6) that generate ceramides with different fatty acid chain lengths with distinct functions and hydrophobicity. Ceramide can be metabolized by sphingosine kinase 1 or 2 for the generation of pro-survival sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P), which enhances immune cell egress to the blood stream, activating immune function. Ceramide is known to induce mitophagy and cell death. Here we investigated the role of this sphingolipid pathway in immune function, specifically T cell functions, via high throughput expression profiling.
