Single-cell Multiomics Analysis Reveals CTCF as a Key Regulator of Lung Morphogenesis and Progenitor Maintenance

ABSTRACT: Lung development generates a complex tree-like architecture through proximal-distal patterning and branching morphogenesis. However, the gene regulatory programs governing embryonic lung development remain poorly understood. Here, we present a comprehensive single-cell multi-omics atlas of mouse embryonic lungs, integrating gene expression and chromatin accessibility profiles. Through systematic analysis, we identify 13 distinct cell types and map cis-regulatory elements, peak-to-gene linkages, and transcription factors underlying lung development. Leveraging this multi-modal dataset, we uncover lineage-determining transcription factors driving cell differentiation, including the Activated Protein-1 complex. We further delineate gene regulatory networks involving diverse transcription regulators, including CCCTC-binding factor. Using the Ctcf conditional knockout mouse, coupled with histological and multi-omics analyses, we demonstrate that CCCTC-binding factor orchestrates lung progenitor maintenance and branching morphogenesis by modulating both gene expression and chromatin accessibility. Thus, our study provides a multi-omics resource and mechanistic insights for transcriptional regulation of lung morphogenesis.

Single Cell Multi-Omics Profiling Using ISSAAC-seq

Project description:Joint profiling of chromatin accessibility and gene expression from the same single cell provides critical information about cell types in a tissue and cell states during a dynamic process. These emerging multi-omics techniques help the investigation of cell-type resolved gene regulatory mechanisms. Here, we developed in situ SHERRY after ATAC-seq (ISSAAC-seq), a highly sensitive and flexible single cell multi-omics method to interrogate chromatin accessibility and gene expression from the same single cell. We demonstrated that ISSAAC-seq is sensitive and provides high quality data with orders of magnitude more features than existing methods. Using the joint profiles from thousands of nuclei from the mouse cerebral cortex, we uncovered major and rare cell types together with their cell-type specific regulatory elements and expression profiles. Finally, we revealed distinct dynamics and relationships of transcription and chromatin accessibility during an oligodendrocyte maturation trajectory.

E3 ubiquitin ligase Rfwd2 inactivation effect on embryonic lung development

Project description:Transcriptome analysis by RNA-seq of lungs from control and Rfwd2 epithelial-specific conditional knockout mice at embryonic 13.5 day age. RFWD2, is an E3 ubiquitin ligase that modifies specific target proteins, priming their degradation via the ubiquitin proteasome system. Rfwd2 deficiency led to a striking halt in branching morphogenesis shortly after secondary branch formation. In the mutant lung, two ETS transcript factors essential for normal lung branching, ETV4 and ETV5, were upregulated at the protein, but not transcript level. Introduction of Etv loss-of-function alleles into the Rfwd2 mutant background attenuated the branching phenotype, suggesting that RFWD2 functions at least in part through degrading ETV proteins. As a number of E3 ligases are known to target factors important for lung development, our findings provides a preview of a protein-level regulatory network essential for lung branching morphogenesis.

Time course gene expression profiling of mouse mammary gland TEB and duct cells throughout branching morphogenesis

Project description:Branching morphogenesis of the mammary gland is driven by the highly motile terminal end bud (TEB) throughout pubertal development. The stem cell enriched, proliferative TEB branches as it invades the mammary fat pad to create a complex network of ducts. The gene expression programs specific to the TEB and the differentiated duct are poorly understood. We conducted a time course analysis of gene expression in the TEB and duct throughout branching morphogenesis. Additionally, we determined the gene regulatory networks coordinated by the Co-factor of LIM domains (CLIM/LDB) transcriptional regulators and determined an essential function for CLIMs in branching morphogenesis by maintaining basal mammary epithelial stem cells and promoting cell proliferation. We used laser capture microdissection to isolate TEB and duct cells throughout branching morphogenesis. We then profiled gene expression in these cells to determine gene regulatory networks involved in branching morphogenesis, and specifically those regulated by CLIM transcriptional regulators.

Histone arginine methylation by Prmt5 is required for lung branching morphogenesis through repression of BMP signaling

Project description:Branching morphogenesis is essential for the successful development of a functional lung to accomplish its gas exchange function. Although many studies have highlighted requirements for the bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling pathway during branching morphogenesis, little is known about how BMP signalingis regulated. Here we report that the protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (Prmt5) and symmetric dimethylation at histone H4 arginine 3 (H4R3sme2) directly associate with chromatin of Bmp4 to suppress its transcription. Inactivation of Prmt5 in the lung epithelium results in halted branching morphogenesis, altered epithelial cell differentiation and neonatal lethality. These defects are accompanied by increased apoptosis and reduced proliferation of lung epithelium, as a consequence of elevated canonical BMP-Smad1/5/9 signaling. Inhibition of BMP signaling by Noggin rescues the lung branching defects of Prmt5 mutant in vitro. Taken together, our results identify a novel mechanism through which Prmt5-mediated histone arginine methylation represses canonical BMP signaling to regulate lung branching morphogenesis.

DNMT1 is required for proximal-distal patterning of the lung endoderm and restraining alveolar type 2 cell fate

Project description:Lung endoderm development occurs through a series of finely coordinated transcriptional processes that are regulated by epigenetic mechanisms. However, the role of DNA methylation in regulating lung endoderm development remains poorly understood. We demonstrate that DNA methyltransferase 1 (Dnmt1) is required for early branching morphogenesis of the lungs and for restraining epithelial fate specification. Loss of Dnmt1 leads to an early branching defect, a loss of proximal endodermal cell differentiation, and an expansion of the distal endoderm compartment. Dnmt1 deficiency also leads to precocious distal endodermal cell differentiation with premature expression of alveolar type 2 cell restricted genes. These data reveal an important requirement for Dnmt1 mediated DNA methylation in early lung development to promote proper branching morphogenesis, maintain proximal endodermal cell fate, and suppress premature activation of the distal epithelial fate.

Smad1 and its target gene Wif1 coordinate BMP and Wnt signaling activities to regulate lung development

Project description:Bone morphogenetic protein 4 (BMP4) is essential for lung development. To define its intracellular signaling mechanisms by which BMP4 regulates lung development, BMP-specific Smad1 or Smad5 was selectively knocked out in fetal mouse lung epithelial cells. Abrogation of lung epithelial-specific Smad1, but not Smad5, resulted in retardation of lung branching morphogenesis and reduced sacculation, accompanied by altered distal lung epithelial cell proliferation and differentiation, and consequently severe neonatal respiratory failure. By combining cDNA microarray with ChIP-chip analyses, Wnt inhibitory factor-1 (Wif1) was identified as a novel target gene of Smad1 in the developing mouse lung epithelial cells. Loss of Smad1 transcriptional activation of Wif1 expression was associated with reduced Wif1 expression and increased Wnt/beta-catenin signaling activity in lung epithelia, resulting in specific fetal lung abnormalities. Therefore, a novel regulatory loop of BMP4-Smad1-Wif1-Wnt/beta-catenin in coordinating BMP and Wnt pathways to control fetal lung development is suggested. mRNA profiling: Total RNA was isolated from left lobe lungs of three pair of E18.5 wild type and Smad1 lung epithelium-specific conditional knockout mice
