The gene expression profiles of SOX9+ basal cells (BCs) compared to basal cells during the ALT injury/regeneration process in the surface airway epithelium (SAE).

ABSTRACT: Tissue-resident stem cells are crucial for repairing barrier tissues that experience frequent damage. However, the local signals that regulate this repair process remain largely unidentified. Here, we show that tuft cell-dependent CysLT activate the LTE4 receptor OXGR1 on SOX9+ accessory stem cells in submucosal glands (SMGs). Activated SMG progenitors regenerate the stem compartment of the SAE, but they also introduce a pro-inflammatory and mesenchymal program, leading to reduced differentiation of ciliated cells. This results in ineffective epithelial repair, causing epithelial injury and inflammation. These findings highlight a significant connection between tuft cell sensing of tissue damage and the onset of abnormal wound healing processes observed in the human airway.

The effects of Lef-1 overexpression on culture-expanded MECs

Project description:The mouse trachea is thought to contain two distinct stem cell compartments that contribute to airway repair—basal cells in the surface airway epithelium (SAE) and an unknown submucosal gland (SMG) cell type. Whether a lineage relationship exists between these two stem cell compartments remains unclear. Using lineage tracing of glandular myoepithelial cells (MECs), we demonstrate that MECs can give rise to seven cell types of the SAE and SMGs following severe airway injury. MECs progressively adopted a basal cell phenotype on the SAE and established lasting progenitors capable of further regeneration following reinjury. MECs activate Wnt-regulated transcription factors (Lef-1/TCF7) following injury and Lef-1 induction in cultured MECs promoted transition to a basal cell phenotype. Surprisingly, dose-dependent MEC conditional activation of Lef-1 in vivo promoted self-limited airway regeneration in the absence of injury. Thus, modulating the Lef-1 transcriptional program in MEC-derived progenitors may have regenerative medicine applications for lung diseases.

Human airway submucosal gland organoids to study respiratory inflammation and infection [RNA-seq]

Project description:The human airway lining consists of two physiologically distinct compartments: the surface airway epithelium (SAE) and the submucosal glands (SMGs). Despite their critical role, SMGs have remained largely overlooked in airway in vitro modeling of respiratory inflammation and infection. In this study, we leverage long-term cultured organoids derived separately from SAE and SMG to investigate their unique physiological characteristics. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) analysis confirms that these organoid models accurately replicate the cellular heterogeneity inherent to each tissue type. Specifically, SMG organoids are enriched in MUC5B-producing mucous cells and generate alpha-Smooth Muscle Actin (αSMA)-expressing myoepithelial cells. We identify ANPEP/CD13 as a specific cell surface marker for SMG secretory cells. Exposure to cytokines elicits distinct transcriptomic responses in SMG secretory cells, providing insights into the cellular mechanisms underpinning inflammatory pathogenesis. Infection assays with human alpha-coronavirus 229E (HCoV-229E) reveal a selective vulnerability of CD13-positive secretory cells within SMG organoids, triggering a specific unfolded protein response associated with endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. These findings broaden the utility of airway organoids for precision modeling of respiratory (patho-)physiology

Single-cell RNA sequencing of airway submucosal glands in wild-type and cystic fibrosis Pigs

Project description:Submucosal glands (SMGs) in the upper respiratory system of mammals play important roles in fluid secretion, mucociliary transport, and host defense. In people with cystic fibrosis (CF), airway mucus obstruction and SMG duct occlusion are hallmark features. Although intensive investigations have focused on airway surface epithelium in normal and diseased lungs, our knowledge of SMGs is limited in terms of cell biology and physiology. Here, we conducted single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) of airway SMGs in newborn piglets. First, we dissected individual SMGs and surrounding non-epithelial tissues from newborn non-CF (n = 4) and CF (n = 4) pig trachea. Second, we did scRNA-seq using 10x genomics chromium platform. Third, we processed the raw sequencing data using an improved RefSeq pig genome reference. Last, we integrated all samples together and clustered cells into 14 major cell clusters using Seurat R toolkit (Stuart et al., 2019). These data allowed us to elucidate airway SMGs at single cell resolution. Moreover, we found that cell-types and gene expression were the same in non-CF and CF SMGs, suggesting that loss of epithelial anion secretion rather than an intrinsic cell defect causes CF mucus abnormalities.

Dissecting the cellular specificity of smoking effects and reconstructing lineages in the human airway epithelium

Project description:Cigarette smoke first interacts with the lung through the cellularly diverse airway epithelium and goes on to drive development of most chronic lung diseases. Here, through single cell RNA-sequencing analysis of the tracheal epithelium from smokers and nonsmokers, we generate a comprehensive atlas of epithelial cell types and states, connect these into lineages, and define cell-specific responses to smoking. Our analysis infers multi-state lineages that develop into surface mucus secretory and ciliated cells and then contrasts these to the unique specification of submucosal gland (SMG) cells. Accompanying knockout studies reveal that tuft-like cells are the likely progenitor of both pulmonary neuroendocrine cells and CFTR-rich ionocytes. Our smoking analysis finds that all cell types, including protected stem and SMG populations, are affected by smoking through both pan-epithelial smoking response networks and hundreds of cell-specific response genes, redefining the penetrance and cellular specificity of smoking effects on the human airway epithelium.

Probing the Roles of SUMOylation in Cancer Cell Biology Using a Selective SAE inhibitor

Project description:Small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) family proteins regulate target protein functions by post-translational modification. However, a potent and selective inhibitor to target the SUMO pathway has been lacking. Here we describe ML-792, the first mechanism-based SUMO-activating enzyme (SAE) inhibitor with nanomolar potency in cellular assays. ML-792 selectively blocks SAE enzyme activity and total SUMOylation, which leads to reduced cancer cell proliferation. Moreover, induction of the MYC oncogene increased the ML-792 mediated viability effect in cancer cells, indicating potential application of SAE inhibitors in MYC-amplified tumors. Using ML-792, we further explored the critical roles of SUMOylation in mitotic progression and chromosome segregation. Furthermore, expression of an SAE catalytic subunit (UBA2) mutant S95N/M97T rescued SUMOylation loss and the mitotic defect induced by ML-792, confirming the selectivity of ML-792. As a potent and selective SAE inhibitor, ML-792 provides rapid loss of endogenously SUMOylated proteins allowing for novel insights into SUMO biology.
