Project description:FGF signaling is thought to be important for linegae specification during mouse develoipment. However, we have recently observed that FGF4 and FGF2 have opposing effects on Erk activity and ultimately on cell fate in both mouse embryonic stem cells and embryos. The aim of this study was to understand, at a single cell level, the impact in lineage specification of early exposure to FGF2 or FGF4 in gastruloid formation, a new 3D in vitro model of mouse gastrulation.

Project description:NANOG has emerged as a central gatekeeper of pluripotency. Here we show that as human embryonic stem (ES) cells exit the pluripotent state, NANOG can play a key role in determining lineage outcome. It has previously been reported that BMPs can induce differentiation of human ES cells into extraembryonic lineages. Here we report that FGF2 switches BMP4 induced differentiation outcome to mesendoderm, characterized by the uniform expression of T (brachyury) and other primitive streak markers. Blocking the MEK-ERK pathway either by chemical inhibitors or by an ERK-specific phosphatase (DUSP6) blocks the FGF2-mediated lineage switch. Active MEK-ERK signaling prolongs NANOG expression during BMP-induced differentiation. Forced NANOG expression results in FGF independent BMP4 induction of mesendoderm, and knockdown of NANOG greatly reduces T induction. Together, our results demonstrate that FGF2 signaling switches the outcome of BMP4 induced differentiation of human ES cells by maintaining NANOG levels through the MEK-ERK pathway. There are three sets of expression data. Set 1 (14 samples) is 5day human ES cells (H1) differentiated with different concentrations of BMP4, in the presence or absence of FGF2. Set 2 (14 samples) is 50ng/mL of BMP4 induced H1 cells differentiation time course, with or without FGF2. Set 3 (22 samples) is 5ng/mL of BMP4 induced H1 cells differentiation time course, with or without FGF2.

Project description:FGF4 paracrine signaling through FGF receptors is believed to induce Erk activity and promotes the exit from pluripotency. However, we have recently observed that FGF4 and FGF2 have opposing effects on mES cell fate. The aim of this study was to understand the underlying transcriptional changes associated with these opposing actions.

Project description:Chickarmane2008 - Stem cell lineage - NANOG GATA-6 switch
In this work, a dynamical model of lineage
determination based upon a minimal circuit, as discussed in PMID: 17215298
, which contains the Oct4/Sox2/Nanog core as well its interaction
with a few other key genes is discussed.
This model is described in the article:

Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Recent studies have associated the transcription factors, Oct4, Sox2 and Nanog as parts of a self-regulating network which is responsible for maintaining embryonic stem cell properties: self renewal and pluripotency. In addition, mutual antagonism between two of these and other master regulators have been shown to regulate lineage determination. In particular, an excess of Cdx2 over Oct4 determines the trophectoderm lineage whereas an excess of Gata-6 over Nanog determines differentiation into the endoderm lineage. Also, under/over-expression studies of the master regulator Oct4 have revealed that some self-renewal/pluripotency as well as differentiation genes are expressed in a biphasic manner with respect to the concentration of Oct4. METHODOLOGY/
PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: We construct a dynamical model of a minimalistic network, extracted from ChIP-on-chip and microarray data as well as literature studies. The model is based upon differential equations and makes two plausible assumptions; activation of Gata-6 by Oct4 and repression of Nanog by an Oct4-Gata-6 heterodimer. With these assumptions, the results of simulations successfully describe the biphasic behavior as well as lineage commitment. The model also predicts that reprogramming the network from a differentiated state, in particular the endoderm state, into a stem cell state, is best achieved by over-expressing Nanog, rather than by suppression of differentiation genes such as Gata-6.
CONCLUSIONS: The computational model provides a mechanistic understanding of how different lineages arise from the dynamics of the underlying regulatory network. It provides a framework to explore strategies of reprogramming a cell from a differentiated state to a stem cell state through directed perturbations. Such an approach is highly relevant to regenerative medicine since it allows for a rapid search over the host of possibilities for reprogramming to a stem cell state.

Project description:Here, using ChIP-Seq, we examined the targets of Nanog-like and Mxtx2 in blastula stage zebrafish embryos. We found that Nanog-like bind to its known targets like Oct4, Sox2, and Nanog-like. Nanog-like also bound to genes involved in extraembryonic lineage differentiation, like gata3 and krt4 for EVL differentiation, and mxtx2 and slc26a1 for YSL differentiation, mesoderm specification like ntl and tbx3, cell movement like wnt11 and cxcr4b, and signaling genes like ndr1, bmp2b, fgf8a and wnt8a. The binding profile suggests that Nanog-like may play a versatile role involving many developmental processes. We found 11.3% of the genes (1751 out of all annotated 15500 zebrafish genes) and 43.6% of the YSL genes (118 out of 271 genes expressed in the YSL) were bound by Mxtx2, suggesting Mxtx2 bound directly to YSL genes to activate their expression Examination of Nanog-like and Mxtx2 binding sites in 3.5hpf and 4.5hpf zebrafish embryos
