Enhanced liver regeneration via targeted mRNA delivery for partial in vivo reprogramming

ABSTRACT: Recent studies suggest that injury-induced dedifferentiation, which leads to the formation of ‘injury-responsive cells’, contributes significantly to tissue repair across various organs, including the liver. Utilizing Yamanaka factors (Oct4, Sox2, Klf4, and c-Myc: OSKM) for in vivo partial reprogramming generates ‘injury-responsive cells’ in the intestine, mirroring those derived from injury-induced dedifferentiation. Thus, the transgene induction of OSKM or viral delivery of Oct4, Sox2, and Klf4 shows promise in facilitating tissue regeneration in the intestine, liver, skeletal muscle, and retina. Herein, we demonstrated that transient OSKM induction produces two distinct liver progenitor-like cell populations. One of these populations resembles liver progenitor-like cells (LPLCs) generated by acute acetaminophen (APAP) injury without triggering immune responses. To explore in vivo reprogramming as a viable strategy for tissue regeneration, we employed lipid nanoparticles (LNP) carrying OSKM mRNA (OSKM-mRNA-LNP) to stimulate LPLCs formation. Notably, the production of Sox9+ LPLCs, and OSKM-induced dedifferentiation, was closely correlated with successful tissue regeneration in the liver post APAP injury. Thus, the OSKM-mRNA-LNP approach represents a promising therapeutic intervention for the repair of acute liver injuries.

Partial in vivo reprogramming enables injury-free intestinal regeneration via autonomous Ptgs1 induction [RNAseq_Fetal]

Project description:Tissue regeneration after injury involves the dedifferentiation of somatic cells, a natural adaptive reprogramming that leads to the emergence of injury-responsive cells with fetal-like characteristics. However, there is no direct evidence that adaptive reprogramming involves a shared molecular mechanism with direct cellular reprogramming. Here, we induced dedifferentiation of intestinal epithelial cells using OSKM (Oct4, Sox2, Klf4, and c-Myc) in vivo. The OSKM-induced forced dedifferentiation showed similar molecular features of intestinal regeneration, including a transition from homeostatic cell types to injury-responsive-like cell types. These injury-responsive-like cells, sharing gene signatures of revival stem cells and atrophy-induced villus epithelial cells, actively assisted tissue regeneration following damage. In contrast to normal intestinal regeneration involving Ptgs2 induction, the OSKM promotes autonomous production of prostaglandin E2 via epithelial Ptgs1 expression. These results indicate prostaglandin synthesis is a common mechanism for intestinal regeneration, but involves a different enzyme when partial reprogramming is applied to the intestinal epithelium.

OSKM-induced epithelial cells of mouse intestine [scRNA-seq]

Project description:Tissue regeneration after injury is thought to involve the dedifferentiation of somatic cells, which is often understood as evidence for natural adaptative reprogramming in vivo. In the intestinal epithelium, acute tissue damage triggers the rapid emergence of injury-responsive cells with fetal-like characteristics, a sign of dedifferentiation. However, there is no direct evidence that tissue regeneration involves a shared molecular mechanism with direct cellular reprogramming. It is also not known whether dedifferentiation shares a single (de)differentiation pathway or consists of multiple parallel routes between adult and fetal states. Here, we induced dedifferentiation of intestinal epithelial cells by forced partial reprogramming in vivo using the “Yamanaka factors” (Oct4, Sox2, Klf4 and c-Myc: OSKM). The induced dedifferentiation showed shared molecular features of intestinal regeneration, with rapid transition from homeostatic intestinal cell types to injury-responsive-like cells sharing a common gene signature of revival stem cells and atrophy-induced villus epithelial cells. When applied to intestinal organoids, induced dedifferentiation allowed the organoids to adopt fetal characteristics ex vivo, suggesting a direct effect on the intestinal epithelium. In vivo, induced dedifferentiation promoted regeneration from acute tissue injury caused by ionizing radiation (IR) via the formation of injury-responsive-like cells. Taken together, in the intestinal epithelium, in vivo reprogramming shares the same molecular pathway as damage-induced tissue regeneration and facilitates the repair process.

Potential landscape decomposes the cell identity conversion in liver regeneration and tumorigenesis [scRNA-seq]

Project description:Tumorigenesis, accompanied by tissue regenerative responses, always occurs during mammalian organ injury. In liver, injury context promotes dedifferentiated liver progenitor-like cells (LPLCs) from hepatocytes for regeneration, and also increases the occurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, little is known about the contribution of injury specific LPLCs to tumorigenesis. Here, by using lineage tracing model, we have demonstrated that LPLCs are highly susceptible to oncogene-induced tumorigenesis. By using quantitative landscape of differentiation dynamics (LDD) model, we have constructed potential landscape of liver regeneration and tumorigenesis via scRNA-seq data, in order to predict distinct regulations of cell fate decisions. Applying this landscape with in vivo validation by transgenic mouse model, we have found blocking Wnt activation not only inhibits tumorigenesis, but also decreases LPLCs. Surprisingly, by using least action pathway analysis, we have decomposed regeneration and tumorigenesis routes, and found EP300 is specifically involved in tumorigenesis, which is further supported by in vivo EP300-knockout model and EP300 inhibitor assays. These findings might be applied as a framework to find tumor-specific regulators and develop strategies specifically inhibiting tumor initiation while leaving tissue regeneration unaffected.

A homeostatic Arid1a-dependent permissive chromatin state licenses hepatocyte responsiveness to liver injury-associated YAP signaling (RNA-seq)

Project description:Following injury, differentiated epithelial cells can serve as a stem cell-independent source for tissue regeneration by undergoing reprogramming into other cell types. The intrinsic molecular basis underlying plasticity of differentiated cells remains largely unaddressed. Here we show that Arid1a, a key component of the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex, controls liver regeneration and gene expression associated with emergence of injury-induced progenitor-like cells (LPLCs). Hepatocyte-specific Arid1a ablation reduces LPLC gene expression in several models of periportal liver injury and impairs liver regeneration, leading to organ dysfunction. Arid1a establishes a permissive chromatin state at LPLC-enriched genes during homeostasis, suggesting it endows hepatocytes with competence to respond to injury-induced signals. Consistently, Arid1a facilitates binding of YAP, a critical regeneration signaling pathway, to LPLC-enriched genes, and Arid1a deletion prevents their YAP-associated induction following injury. Together, these findings provide a framework for studying the contributions of injury-induced LPLCs to periportal liver regeneration.
