Positional cues underlie cell fate specification during branching morphogenesis of the embryonic mammary epithelium

ABSTRACT: By single-cell RNA-sequencing across 4 stages of embryonic development, we reconstructed the differentiation trajectories of multipotent mammary stem cells towards basal and luminal fate. Our data revealed that MaSCs can already be resolved into distinct populations exhibiting lineage commitment at the time coinciding with the first sprouting events of mammary branching morphogenesis (E15.5). Through an interactive web tool for the visualization of gene expression across our developmental atlas, we provide novel molecular markers for committed and multipotent MaSCs, and define their spatial distribution within the developing tissue. Furthermore, we show that the mammary embryonic mesenchyme is composed of two spatially-restricted cell populations, representing the sub-epithelial and dermal mesenchyme.

AP-2γ is Required for Maintenance of Multipotent Mammary Stem Cells

Project description:Mammary gland ductal morphogenesis depends on the differentiation of mammary stem cells (MaSCs) into basal and luminal lineages. The AP-2γ transcription factor, encoded by Tfap2c, has a central role in mammary gland development but its effect in mammary lineages and specifically MaSCs is largely unknown. Herein, we utilized an inducible, conditional knockout of Tfap2c to elucidate the role of AP-2γ in maintenance and differentiation of MaSCs. Loss of AP-2γ in the basal epithelium profoundly altered the transcriptomes and decreased the number of cells within several clusters of mammary epithelial cells, including adult MaSCs and luminal progenitors. AP-2γ regulated the expression of genes known to be required for mammary development including Cebpb, Nfkbia, and Rspo1. As a result, AP-2γ-deficient mice exhibited repressed mammary gland ductal outgrowth and inhibition of regenerative capacity. The findings demonstrate that AP-2γ can regulate development of mammary gland structures potentially regulating maintenance and differentiation of multipotent MaSCs.

Epigenetic Profiles Signify Cell Fate Plasticity in Unipotent Spermatogonial Stem and Progenitor Cells (ChIP-Seq)

Project description:Mammalian spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) spontaneously convert to multipotent adult spermatogonial-derived stem cells (MASCs) during in vitro expansion. Here, we examine the epigenetic signature of SSCs and MASCs, identifying bivalent histone H3-lysine4 and -lysine27 trimethylation at somatic gene promoters in SSCs and an ESC-like promoter chromatin state in MASCs.

Single cell transcriptome sequencing of mammary stem cells in the pubertal mammary gland

Project description:The mammary gland is a highly dynamic organ that mainly develops during puberty. Based on morphology and proliferation analysis, mammary stem cells (MaSCs) are thought to be close to or reside in the terminal end buds (TEBs) during pubertal development. However, exclusive stem cell markers are lacking, and therefore the true identity of MaSCs, including their location, multiplicity, dynamics and fate during branching morphogenesis, has yet to be defined. To gain more insights into the molecular identity and heterogeneity of the MaSC pool, we performed single cell transcriptome sequencing of mammary epithelial cells micro-dissected from ducts and TEBs during puberty. These data show that the behaviour of MaSCs cannot be directly linked to a single expression profile. Instead, morphogenesis of the mammary epithelium relies upon a heterogeneous population of MaSCs that functions long-term as a single equipotent pool of stem cells.

Essential role of miR-200c in regulating self-renewal of breast cancer stem cells initiating from the counter parts of mammary epithelium

Project description:To explore the roles of essential miRNAs in regulating self-renewal of breast cancer stem cells (BCSCs), which initiate from mammary epithelial stem cells (MaSCs). CD44+CD24-/low cells and MUC1-ESA+ cells were isolated by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) from breast cancer cell line MCF-7 and normal mammary epithelial cell line MCF-10A, and were verified as BCSCs and MaSCs by clonogenic assay and multipotential differentiation experiment in 2-dimensional (2-D) and 3-D cultures, respectively. Using microarray containing oligonucleotides corresponding to 509 miRNAs from human, mouse, and rat genomes. We obtained candidate miRNAs in regulating breast tumorigenesis. One representative miRNA (miR-200c) was proved to regulate stemness of BCSCs and MaSCs in vitro and in vivo by miR-200c agomir transfection. We validated that miR-200c negatively regulated PDCD10, an apoptosis regulator, in BCSCs and MaSCs.

Astrocyte-encoded positional cues maintain sensorimotor circuit integrity

Project description:Astrocytes, the most abundant cells in the central nervous system, promote synapse formation and help refine neural connectivity. Although they are allocated to spatially distinct regional domains during development, it is unknown whether region-restricted astrocytes are functionally heterogeneous. Here we show that postnatal spinal cord astrocytes express several region-specific genes, and that ventral astrocyte-encoded Semaphorin3a (Sema3a) is required for proper motor neuron and sensory neuron circuit organization. Loss of astrocyte-encoded Sema3a led to dysregulated α−motor neuron axon initial segment orientation, markedly abnormal synaptic inputs, and selective death of α−but not of adjacent γ−motor neurons. Additionally, a subset of TrkA+ sensory afferents projected to ectopic ventral positions. These findings demonstrate that stable maintenance of a positional cue by developing astrocytes influences multiple aspects of sensorimotor circuit formation. More generally, they suggest that regional astrocyte heterogeneity may help to coordinate postnatal neural circuit refinement. 12 total samples consisting of three biological replicates each of flow sorted postnatal day 7 dorsal spinal cord astrocytes, ventral spinal cord astrocytes, dorsal SC non astrocytes, and ventral SC non astrocytes

Genome-wide analysis of mRNA expression differences from various stem cell enriched sub-populations of mouse mammary epithelial cells

Project description:Microarrays were used to examine gene expression differences in four different sub-populations of mammary epithelial cells obtained through flow cytometry of stem cell markers for H2BGFP, CD24, and CD29. The present study aims to find the specific differences between these populations that influence their ability to repopulate mammary structures in vivo during transplantation assays. H2GFP+/CD24+/CD29lo cells were found to be multipotent and able to give rise to mammary structures capable of lactation, and this ability increased dramatically if the recipient mice were pregnant. Total RNA obtained from sorted sub-populations of mammary epithelial cells.

Overexpression of IGF-1 During Early Development Expands the Number of Mammary Stem Cells and Primes them for Transformation

Project description:In this paper we report transcriptomic profiles of mammary stem cells (MaSCs) from female BK5.IGF1 transgenic and age-matched WT mice, generated by single-cell RNA-sequencing technology. We found that IGF-1 stimulated quiescent MaSCs to enter the cell cycle and increased their expression of genes involved in proliferation, plasiticity, tumorigenesis, invasion, and metastasis.

Affymetrix SNP array data for Trp53-null mammary tumors developed in a mouse model with a K8+ luminal cell origin

Project description:Mammary epithelium is hierarchically organized, with multipotent basal mammary stem cells (MaSCs) producing both luminal and basal cells during development or upon transplantation. Recent studies suggested that most breast cancers, including Basal-Like breast cancer (BLBC), might originate from luminal cells, and oncogenic events, such as ectopic expression of PIK3CA(H1047R), could induce multipotency in committed luminal cells. p53 is the most commonly mutated gene in human breast cancer; in particular, its inactivating mutations are found in most BLBCs, raising a question as to whether p53-loss plays a key role in acquisition of multipotent MaSC-like properties by luminal cells. By in situ lineage-tracing, we found that induced loss of p53 in Keratin 8 (K8)+ luminal cells led to their clonal expansion, due to increased cell cycle activity and attenuated apoptosis control, but did not directly affect their luminal identity. All induced mice eventually developed either Claudin-Low mammary tumors with 9qA1 (Yap1) amplification or Basal-Like tumors with 6qA1-A2 (Met) amplification. These data suggest that although p53 does not directly control the luminal fate, its loss facilitates acquisition of MaSC-like properties by luminal cells and predisposes them to development of mammary tumors with loss of luminal identity.
