Project description:Naïve pluripotent state can be obtained by several strategies from various types of cells, in which the cell fate roadmap as well as key biological events involved in the journey have been described in detail. Here, we carefully explored the chromatin accessibility dynamics during the primed-to-naïve transition by adopting a dual fluorescent reporter system and the assay for transposase-accessible chromatin (ATAC)-seq. Our results revealed critical chromatin remodeling events and highlight the discordance between chromatin accessibility and transcriptional activity. We further demonstrate that the differential epigenetic modifications and transcription factor (TF) activities may play a critical role in regulating gene expression, and account for the observed variations in gene expression despite similar chromatin landscapes.

Project description:Naïve and primed pluripotency is characterized by distinct signaling requirements, transcriptomes and developmental properties, but both cellular states share key transcriptional regulators, Oct4, Sox2 and Nanog. Here we demonstrate that transition between these two pluripotent states is associated with widespread Oct4 relocalization, mirrored by global rearrangement of enhancer chromatin landscapes. Our genomic and biochemical analyses identified candidate mediators of primed state-specific Oct4 binding, including Otx2 and Zic2/3. Even in the absence of other differentiation cues, premature Otx2 overexpression is sufficient to exit the naïve state, induce transcription of a large subset of primed pluripotency-associated genes and redirect Oct4 to thousands of previously inaccessible sites. However, ability of Otx2 to engage new enhancer regions is determined by its levels, cis-encoded properties of the sites and signaling environment. Our results illuminate regulatory mechanisms underlying pluripotency and suggest that capacity of transcription factors such as Otx2 and Oct4 to function as pioneers is highly context-dependent transcription profile of ESCs and EpiLCs to analzye changes during differentiation and the effect of Otx2 loss and overexpression on the differentiation properties

We used H3K27ac, H3K4me1 and p300 to call enhancers from 2 different pluripotent cell states: ESC and EpiLC. In addition we performed ChIP-seq for Oct4 and Otx2 from these cell states. All these experiments were carried out in replicates, for the EpiLC state the replicates were performed with and without ActivinA. Additionally we carried out ChIPseq for Otx2 and Oct4 in Otx2ko cell lines in which we integrated an inducible Otx2 gene before and after induction with doxycycline.

Project description:Intermediate cells induced until Day 3 were collected for proteomic profiling. Concurrently, the acetylation levels of peptides were relatively quantified and analyzed. This involved assessing the extent of acetylation on peptide segments and providing insights into post-translational modifications. The experimental procedure included sample preparation, mass spectrometry analysis, and subsequent data interpretation to understand the cellular protein landscape and acetylation patterns comprehensively.

Project description:Translational control plays a central role in regulation of gene expression and can lead to significant divergence between mRNA- and protein-abundance. The translational landscape of early mammalian development and its impact on cellular proteome, however, remains largely un-explored. Here we used genome-wide approaches combined with time-course analysis to measure the mRNA-abundance, mRNA-translation rate and protein expression during the transition of naïve into primed embryonic stem cells (ESCs). We found that the ground state ESCs cultured with GSK3- and MEK-inhibitors and LIF (2iL) display higher ribosome density on a selective set of mRNAs. These mRNAs show reduced translation during the exit from ground state pluripotency and transition to serum/LIF (SL) culture or upon commitment to primed epiblast-like stem cells (EpiLSCs). Strikingly, integrative analysis with cellular proteome indicate a strong translational buffering of this set of mRNAs in 2iL-ESCs leading to stable protein expression levels. Our data reveal that the global alteration of cellular proteome is largely accompanied by transcriptional rewiring. Furthermore, we identified a set of genes (including UHRF1 and KRAS) that undergo selective post-translational regulation during the transition of naïve into primed pluripotency and linked the observed changes to upstream GSK- and MEK/MAPK-signaling pathways using single inhibitor treated ESCs. Thus, we provide a comprehensive and detailed overview of the global changes in gene expression during the transition of naïve to primed pluripotency and dissect the relative contributions of RNA-transcription, translation and regulation of protein stability in controlling protein abundance.

Project description:Guinea pigs are valuable models for human disease research, yet the lack of established pluripotent stem cell lines has limited their utility. In this study, we isolate and characterize guinea pig epiblast stem cells (gpEpiSCs) from post-implantation embryos. These cells differentiate into the three germ layers, maintain normal karyotypes, and rely on FGF2 and ACTIVIN A signaling for self-renewal and pluripotency. Wingless/Integrated (WNT) signaling inhibition is also essential for their maintenance. GpEpiSCs express key pluripotency markers (OCT4, SOX2, NANOG) and share transcriptional similarities with human and mouse primed stem cells. While many genes are conserved between guinea pig and human primed stem cells, transcriptional analysis also reveals species-specific differences in pluripotency-related pathways. Epigenetic analysis highlights bivalent gene regulation, underscoring their developmental potential. This work demonstrates both the evolutionary conservation and divergence of primed pluripotent stem cells, providing a new tool for biomedical research and enhancing guinea pigs' utility in studying human diseases.

Project description:Around implantation, the epiblast transits from naïve to primed pluripotency, before giving rise to the three germ layers. How chromatin is reconfigured during this developmental window remains poorly understood. We performed a genome-wide investigation of chromatin landscapes during this period. We find that enhancers in ectoderm are already pre-accessible in embryonic day 6.5 (E6.5) Epi when cells enter a primed pluripotent state. Unexpectedly, strong H3K4me3 emerges at developmental gene promoters in E6.5 epiblast and positively correlates with H3K27me3, thus establishing bivalency. These genes also show enhanced spatial interactions. Both the strong bivalency and spatial clustering are virtually absent in preimplantation embryos and are markedly reduced in fate-committed lineages. Finally, we show that KMT2B is essential for establishing bivalent H3K4me3 at E6.5 but becomes partially dispensable later. Its deficiency leads to impaired activation of developmental genes and subsequent embryonic lethality. Thus, our data characterize lineage-specific chromatin reconfiguration and a unique chromatin state for primed pluripotency.
