Characterization of human pancreatic tissue and organoids reveals subpopulation of intercalated duct cells with progenitor traits

ABSTRACT: Pancreatic duct organoids have emerged as a valuable tool for investigating pancreas biology and physiology through in vitro modeling. Despite their widespread use, a comprehensive understanding of the cellular heterogeneity of organoids and their underlying tissue remains elusive. Here we performed single-cell transcriptomic profiling of human adult pancreatic exocrine tissue and their derived organoids, revealing a gradient of keratin expression within the ductal network that clustered cells into two distinct low- and high-keratin subpopulations. Keratin-high cells display a higher capacity to form organoids while keratin-low cells express stemness associated markers. Finally, comparative gene expression analysis between ductal tissue and derived organoids revealed a partial recapitulation of the in vivo heterogeneity. These findings further our knowledge on pancreatic duct organoids and pave the way for future investigations into the heterogeneity of the pancreatic ductal syste

Human stem cell-derived pancreatic acini-like and duct-like organoids demonstrate lineage-specific differences to oncogene activation

Project description:The exocrine compartment of the pancreas consisting of ducts and acini makes up most of the pancreatic tissue and is the site of origin for pancreatitis and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Our understanding of the initiation and progression of human PDAC is limited because of challenges associated with maintaining acinar cells in culture. Here we report the commitment of human pluripotent stem cells towards pancreatic duct-like and acini-like organoids that express properties of the neonatal exocrine pancreas. The expression of PDAC-oncogenes KRasG12D or GNASR201C induced cell lineage-specific effects where GNASR201C was more effective in ductal compared to acinar organoids. KRasG12D was more effective in modeling cancer in vivo when expressed in acinar cells and was associated with acinar to ductal metaplastic changes in culture and in vivo. Thus we demonstrate lineage tropism and plasticity in the human exocrine pancreas and identify a renewable source of ductal and acinar epithelia for understanding exocrine development and diseases.

RNA-seq of purified human pancreatic dedifferentiated acinar cells and duct cells

Project description:Pancreatic acinar cells can dedifferentiate upon tissue injury and acquire ductal characteristics. This acquisition of duct cell features is critical in tumor development. Nevertheless, duct cells themselves are less prone for development of PDAC (pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma) than dedifferentiated acini. We aimed to clarify which genes are unique for dedifferentiated acini. Mixed exocrine preparations of acinar and duct cells were obtained from human pancreatic donor organs and cultured to induce dedifferentiation. We lineage-labeled and FACS-purified these human dedifferentiated acinar cells and compared them to duct cells from the same donor (n=5).

A single cell atlas of the murine pancreatic ductal tree identifies novel cell populations with potential implications in pancreas regeneration and exocrine pathogenesis.

Project description:Pancreatic ducts form an intricate network of tubules that secrete bicarbonate and drive acinar secretions into the duodenum. This network is formed by centroacinar cells, terminal, intercalated, intracalated ducts, and the main pancreatic duct. Ductal heterogeneity at the single-cell level has been poorly characterized. Here, we used scRNA-seq to comprehensively characterize mouse ductal heterogeneity at single-cell resolution of the entire ductal epithelium from centroacinar cells to the main duct. Moreover, we used organoid cultures, injury models and pancreatic tumor samples to interrogate the role of novel ductal populations in pancreas regeneration and exocrine pathogenesis. In our study, we have identified the coexistence of 15 ductal populations within the healthy pancreas and characterized their organoid formation capacity and endocrine differentiation potential. Cluster isolation and subsequent culturing let us identify ductal cell populations with high organoid formation capacity and endocrine and exocrine differentiation potential in vitro, including Wnt-responsive-population, ciliated-population and FLRT3+ cells. Moreover, we have characterized the location of these novel ductal populations in healthy pancreas, chronic pancreatitis and tumor samples, hightlihgting a putative role of WNT-responsive, IFN-responsive and EMT-populations in pancreatic exocrine pathogenesis as their expression inceases in chronic pancreatitis and PanIN lesions. In light of our discovery of previously unidentified ductal populations, we unmask the potential roles of specific ductal populations in pancreas regeneration and exocrine pathogenesis.

DNA methylation profiles of human embryonic stem cells (HUES8) differentiated to pancreatic duct-like organoids.

Project description:To investigate Keratin 19 (KRT19) expression dynamics in pancreatic development, we established a human pluripotent stem cell (PSC)-based KRT19-mCherry reporter system in various genetic backgrounds to monitor KRT19 expression from ist endogenous gene locus. A genuine differentiation protocol to generate mature pancreatic duct-like organoids (PDLO) was applied. While KRT19/mCherry expression became evident at early endoderm stage, mCherry signal was present in nearly all cells at pancreatic endoderm (PE) and pancreatic progenitor (PP) stage. Interestingly, despite homogenous KRT19 expression, the mCherry positivity dropped to 50% after ductal maturation, indicating a permanent switch from biallelic to monoallelic expression. DNA methylation profiling separated the distinct differentiation intermediates with site specific DNA methylation patterns occuring at the KRT19 locus during ductal maturation. Accordingly, the monoallelic switch was partially reverted upon treatment with a DNA-methyltransferase inhibitor.

Self-Renewing Tri-Potent Stem/Progenitor-like Cells from Adult Human Pancreas

Project description:Stem and progenitor cells in the adult human pancreas provide an under-explored resource for regenerative medicine. Using micro-manipulation and methylcellulose-containing colony/organoid assays, we identified cells within the human cadaveric exocrine pancreas that fulfill the definition of a stem cell: able to self-renew and differentiate. Exocrine tissues were collected after the isolation of endocrine cells, dissociated into single cells, and plated into a 3-dimensional semisolid medium. We found that some pancreatic ductal cells gave rise to cystic colonies/organoids containing pancreatic duct, acinar, and endocrine lineage cells. These cells self-renewed and expanded approximately 300-fold over 9 weeks. When transplanted into diabetic mice, colonies/organoids lowered blood glucose levels and gave rise to insulin-expressing endocrine cells. Thus, stem/progenitor-like cells capable of self-renewal and differentiation either preexist in the adult human pancreas or readily adapt in culture. These human cells have implications for therapy in diabetes patients.

Single-cell-resolved differentiation of human induced pluripotent stem cells into pancreatic duct-like organoids on a microwell chip

Project description:Creating in vitro models of diseases of the pancreatic ductal compartment requires a comprehensive understanding of the developmental trajectories of pancreas-specific cell types. Here, we report the single-cell characterization of the differentiation of pancreatic duct-like organoids (PDLOs) from human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) on a microwell chip that facili-tates the uniform aggregation and chemical induction of hiPSC-derived pancreatic progenitors. Using time-resolved single-cell transcriptional profiling and immunofluorescence imaging of the forming PDLOs, we identified differentiation routes from pan-creas progenitors through ductal intermediates to two types of mature duct-like cell and a few non-ductal cell types. PDLO subpopulations expressed either mucins or the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator, and resembled human adult duct cells. We also used the chip to uncover ductal markers relevant to pancreatic carcinogenesis, and to establish PDLO co-cultures with stellate cells, which allowed for the study of epithelial–mesenchymal signalling. The PDLO microsystem could be used to establish patient-specific pancreatic duct models.
