Project description:Female human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC) lines exhibit considerable variability in X-inactivation status. Some lines maintain one transcriptionally active X chromosome (Xa) and one inactive X (Xi) from donor cells. However, hiPSC lines that have two Xas are infrequently produced. We show here Xinactivation status in female hiPSC lines depends on derivation conditions. hiPSC lines generated using the Kyoto method, which employs leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF)-expressing SNL feeders, frequently had two Xas. Lines derived on other feeders maintained an Xi. In addition, there appears to be a window in which SNL feeders promote Xi-reactivation. Upon differentiation, Xa/Xa hiPSCs silenced one X. The efficient production of Xa/Xa hiPSC lines provides unprecedented opportunities to understand human X-reactivation and inactivation.

Gene expression patterns were compared between several human embryonic stem cell (hESC) and hiPSC lines. Gene expression ratios between genes on X and those on autosomes were calculated from each cell lines.

Project description:Human in vitro oogenesis provides a framework for clarifying the mechanism of human oogenesis. To create its benchmark, it is vital to promote in vitro oogenesis using a model physiologically close to humans. Here, we establish a foundation for in vitro oogenesis in cynomolgus (cy) monkeys (Macaca fascicularis): cy female embryonic stem cells harboring one active and one inactive X chromosome (Xa and Xi, respectively) differentiate robustly into primordial germ cell-like cells, which in xenogeneic reconstituted ovaries develop efficiently into oogonia and, remarkably, further into meiotic oocytes at the zygotene stage. This differentiation entails comprehensive epigenetic reprogramming, including Xi reprogramming, yet Xa and Xi remain epigenetically asymmetric with, as partly observed in vivo, incomplete Xi reactivation. In humans and monkeys, the Xi epigenome in pluripotent stem cells functions as an Xi-reprogramming determinant. We further show that developmental pathway over-activations with suboptimal up-regulation of relevant meiotic genes impede in vitro meiotic progression. Cy in vitro oogenesis exhibits critical homology with the human system, including with respect to bottlenecks, providing a salient model for advancing human in vitro oogenesis.

Project description:X-chromosome inactivation (XCI) achieves dosage compensation between males and females through the silencing of the majority of genes on one X chromosome, with approximately 15% of genes reported to show inactive X (Xi) expression. We examined the interplay between ChromHMM states, CpG density, expression and DNAm from over 1800 female samples with the Illumina 450K array. The interaction between CpG density and histone marks differed between the active X (Xa) and the Xi, with X-linked promoters reflecting transcriptional status, while the Xi showed lower DNAm than the Xa at all non-promoter regions. Promoter DNAm was used to determine a novel XCI status for more than 100 transcription start sites and a comparison across 27 tissues revealed the majority of genes were consistently subject to XCI. Inter-female and twin data supported a model of predominately cis-acting influences on escape, or variable escape, from XCI. Increased promoter DNAm at escape genes correlated with decreased relative Xi expression up to ~15% female DNAm but above this threshold DNAm was not correlated with the stability of silencing. Xi DNAm was ~12% lower than Xa DNAm within the gene bodies of subject genes and between genes while there was equivalent DNAm at escape genes. In addition to offering insight into sex-specific difference in disease, female X chromosomes provide the opportunity to compare euchromatin and heterochromatin of allelic regions within the same nuclear environment and demonstrate the correlation of DNAm with transcription and the influences of CpG density and chromatin marks.

Project description:Female human ESC-lines can carry active X-chromosomes (Xa) or an XIST-RNA- coated inactive X-chromosome (Xi XIST+ ). Additionally, many ESC-lines have abnormal X-chromosome-inactivation (XCI)-states where the Xi no longer expresses XIST-RNA and has transcriptionally active regions (eroded Xi=Xe). The fate of each XCI-state upon differentiation is unclear because individual lines often contain a mixture of XCI-states. Here, we established homogeneous XiXa, XeXa, and XaXa ESC-lines. We found that these lines were unable to initiate XIST-expression and X-chromosome- wide silencing upon differentiation indicating that the ESC XCI-state is maintained in differentiated cells. Consequently, differentiated XeXa and XaXa cells displayed higher levels of X-linked gene-expression than XiXa cells. Although global transcriptional compensation between X-chromosomes and autosomes is not required for female ESC-differentiation, the degree of X-chromosome- silencing influences differentiation efficiencies. Our data suggest that the Xi XIST+ Xa state is inherent to human ESCs and that all other XCI-states, including XaXa, are abnormal and arise during ESC-derivation or maintenance.

Project description:In naïve human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) that represent the pre-implantation embryonic states, epigenetic regulators for cell identity remain poorly defined. One of the major remaining questions in naïve stem cell biology is how female cells mediate and regulate X chromosome inactivation (XCI). Recent studies incorporating single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) have demonstrated that transcript-based technologies are insufficient to unequivocally resolve XCI regulation in a human system. Instead, 3D genomics shows immense promise for studying XCI by interrogating changes to the X chromosomes’ 3D states. Here, we sought to characterize the 3D state of the X chromosome in naïve and primed hPSCs. Using chromatin tracing, we analyzed the folding conformations of whole X chromosomes with megabase genomic resolution in multiple naïve and primed hPSC lines. Our data found that X chromosomes in female naive hPSCs exhibit a range of spatial folding conformations similar to the active X chromosome (Xa) and the inactive X chromosome (Xi) in somatic cells; these data suggest that naïve hPSCs have initiated XCI. As XCI process ultimately generates detectable differences in volume between the Xa and the Xi, we measured the radius of gyration of individual X chromosome copies across various hPSC cell lines and culture conditions. In naïve hPSCs, our results show that the X chromosomes with Xi-like conformations are not more compact than those with Xa-like conformation. This finding is directly counter to the Xi compaction typically observed in post-XCI female somatic cells. These contradictory 3D signatures of XCI suggest that female naïve hPSCs have initiated the XCI process, but are poised before XCI-driven silencing in a metastable state. As observed in H7 naïve hPSCs, this metastable state can be abolished through classically noted means, such as the loss of Xp chromatin, leading to the deleted p X chromosome (dXp). The Xp loss observed here seems to drive XIST expression and accumulation around the dXp chromosome. Overall, our findings provide insight into the previously undefined X chromosome status in naïve hPSCs in single chromosome resolution, and are critical in understanding the unique epigenetic regulation in early embryonic cells.
