Dux promotes metabolism-lactylation-MET cascaded network during early iPSC reprogramming with Brg1 as the histone lactylation reader [RNA-Seq]

ABSTRACT: The process of reprogramming induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) involves several crucial events, including the shutdown of somatic genes, the mesenchymal-epithelial transition (MET), activation of pluripotent genes, metabolic reprogramming, and epigenetic rewiring. These events intricately interact and influence each other, ultimately leading to the formation of iPSCs. However, the specific element that regulates the reprogramming network remains unclear. Dux, a factor known to promote totipotency during the transition from embryonic stem cells (ESCs) to 2C-like ESCs (2CLC), has not been extensively studied in the context of iPSC reprogramming. In this study, we demonstrate that the modification of H3K18la induced by Dux overexpression controls the metabolism-H3K18la-MET network, enhancing the efficiency of iPSC reprogramming through a metabolic switch and the recruitment of P300 via its C-terminal domain. Through the utilization of H3K18la regulators, we discover that H3K18la plays crucial roles in promoting MET. Furthermore, our proteomic analysis of H3K18la IP experiment uncover the specific recruitment of Brg1 during reprogramming, with both H3K18la and Brg1 being enriched on the promoters of genes associated with epithelial and pluripotency. In summary, our study has demonstrated the significant role of Dux-induced H3K18la in the early reprogramming process, highlighting its function as a potent trigger. Additionally, our research has revealed, for the first time, the binding of Brg1 to H3K18la, indicating its role as a reader of histone lactylation.

Project description:Human pluripotent stem cells hold great potential for regenerative medicine, but available cell types have important limitations. While embryonic stem cells derived from fertilized embryos (IVF-ESCs) are considered the "gold standard" of pluripotency, they are allogeneic to potential recipients. Autologous induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are prone to epigenetic and transcriptional aberrations. To determine whether accumulation of such aberrations is intrinsic to somatic cell reprogramming or secondary to the reprogramming method, we generated a genetically matched collection of human IVF-ESCs, iPSCs, and ESCs derived by somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT; NT-ESCs), and subjected them to genome-wide genetic, epigenetic and transcriptional analyses. SCNT-based reprogramming is mediated by the full complement of oocyte cytoplasmic factors, thus closely recapitulating early embryogenesis. NT-ESCs and iPSCs derived from the same somatic donor cells contained comparable numbers of de novo copy number variations (CNVs), suggesting that the two reprogramming methods may not differ significantly in mutagenic or selective pressure. On the other hand, the DNA methylation and transcriptome profiles of NT-ESCs corresponded very closely to those of IVF-ESCs, while iPSCs differed markedly from IVF-ESCs and harbored residual DNA methylation patterns typical of parental fibroblasts, suggesting incomplete reprogramming. We conclude that human somatic cells can be faithfully reprogrammed to pluripotency by SCNT and are therefore ideal candidates for cell replacement therapies. 16 matched samples, two IVF-ESCs, five sendai produced iPSC lines, two retro-virus produced iPSC lines, four NT-ESCs, the parental fibroblast line, and the sperm and oocyte donor were genotyped using the Illumina Omni5, which interrogates 4.3 million SNPs across the human genome. Additionally, matched samples from a patient with Leigh syndrome, a NT-ESC line, three iPSC lines, and the parental fibroblast line were genotyped using the Illumina Omni5.

Project description:Since the first generation of induced Pluripotent Stem cells (iPSCs), several reprogramming systems have been used to study its molecular mechanisms. However, the system of choice largely affects the reprogramming efficiency, influencing our view on the mechanisms. Here we demonstrate that reprogramming triggered by less efficient polycistronic reprogramming cassettes not only highlights Mesenchymal-Epithelial Transition (MET) as a roadblock, but also faces more severe difficulties to attain a pluripotent state even post-MET. Also, in contrast to previous findings, more efficient cassettes can reprogram both wild type and Nanog-/- fibroblasts with comparable efficiencies, routes and kinetics, rebutting previous studies that Nanog is critical for iPSC generation. We revealed that the 9 amino acids in the N-terminus of Klf4 in polycistronic reprogramming cassettes are the dominant factor causing these critical differences. Our data establishes that some reprogramming roadblocks are system-dependent, highlighting the need to pursue mechanistic studies with close attention to the systems to better understand reprogramming. The aim of the experiment is to compare the reprogramming pathways driven by two different polycistronic cassettes (MKOS and OKMS). We have isolated cells at intermediate stages of both MKOS and OKMS reprogramming and analysed their gene expression profiles. 2N- are CD44- ICAM1-, Nanog-GFP-, 3N- are CD44- ICAM1+, Nanog-GFP-, 3N+ are CD44- ICAM1+, Nanog-GFP+, all from day 10 of reprogramming.
