Expression analysis of genes regulated by RBPJ (Notch) and Axin2 (Wnt) mediated signaling in mouse cardiogenesis at E9.25

ABSTRACT: Progenitor cells of the first and second heart fields (FHF and SHF) depend on cardiac-specific transcription factors for their differentiation. In mouse mutant embryos, we define the hierarchy of signaling events that controls the expression of cardiac-specific transcription factors during commitment of SHF progenitors at E9.25. Wnt and Bmp act downstream of Notch/RBPJ at this developmental stage. Mutation of Axin2, the negative regulator of canonical Wnt signaling, enhances Wnt and Bmp signals and suffices to rescue the cardiac differentiation arrest caused by loss of RBPJ. By analysis of isolated cardiac progenitors, embryo cultures in the presence of pharmacological inhibitors, and Bmp triple mutants, we could classify the expression of heart-specific transcription factors of SHF progenitors according to their dependence on either Wnt or Bmp signals, Nkx2-5, Isl1, Baf60c and Gata4, SRF, Mef2c, respectively.

Total RNA from whole embryonic hearts of control mice was compared to MesP1-cre:RBPJlox/lox (KO), MesP1-cre:RBPJlox/lox//Axin2-/- (DKO), MesP1-cre:RBPJlox/+//Axin2-/- (hetDKO) and MesP1-cre:RBPJlox/lox//Axin2+/- (DKOhet) mutant mouse embryos.

Precardiac Organoids Form Two Heart Fields via Bmp/Wnt Signaling

Project description:The discovery of the first heart field (FHF) and the second heart field (SHF) led us to understand how cardiac lineages and structures arise during development. However, it remains unknown how they are specified. Here, we generate precardiac spheroids with pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) harboring GFP/RFP reporters under the control of FHF/SHF markers, respectively. GFP+ cells and RFP+ cells appear from two distinct areas and develop in a complementary fashion. Transcriptome analysis shows a high degree of similarities with embryonic FHF/SHF cells. Bmp and Wnt are among the most differentially regulated pathways, and gain- and loss-of-function studies reveal that Bmp specifies GFP+ cells and RFP+ cells via the Bmp/Smad pathway and Wnt signaling, respectively. FHF/SHF cells can be isolated without reporters by the surface protein Cxcr4. This study provides novel insights into understanding the specification of two cardiac origins, which can be leveraged for PSC-based modeling of heart field/chamber-specific disease.

Early lineage restriction and regional segregation during mammalian heart development

Project description:Cardiac development arises from two sources of mesoderm progenitors, the first (FHF) and the second heart field (SHF). Mesp1 has been proposed to mark the most primitive multipotent cardiac progenitors common for both heart fields. Here, using clonal analysis of the earliest prospective cardiovascular progenitors in a temporally controlled manner during the early gastrulation, we found that Mesp1 progenitors consist of two temporally distinct pools of progenitors restricted to either the FHF or the SHF. FHF progenitors were unipotent, while SHF progenitors, were either uni- or bipotent. Microarray and single cell RT-PCR analysis of Mesp1 progenitors revealed the existence of molecularly distinct populations of Mesp1 progenitors, consistent with their lineage and regional contribution. Altogether, these results provide evidence that heart development arises from distinct populations of unipotent and bipotent cardiac progenitors that independently express Mesp1 at different time points during their specification, revealing that the regional segregation and lineage restriction of cardiac progenitors occurs very early during gastrulation. We used microarrays to characterize the molecular mechanisms that control Mesp1 progenitor specification and lineage segregation during the early stage of cardiac mesoderm formation, 50 Mesp1 H2B-GFP+ or Mesp1 H2B-GFP- cells at E6.5 or E7.5 from mouse embryos were sorted for RNA extraction, amplification and hybridization on Affimetrix microarrays. Microaarrays were performed on Mouse Genome 430 PM strip Affymetrix array. The overall design was repeated in two different biological samples.

Chromatin Profiling of Micro-dissected Mouse Embryonic Heart and CPP regions

Project description:Co-development of the lungs and heart underlies key evolutionary innovations in the transition to terrestrial life. Cardiac specializations that support pulmonary circulation, including the atrial septum, are generated by second heart field (SHF) cardiopulmonary progenitors (CPPs). It has been presumed that transcription factors required in the SHF for cardiac septation, e.g. Tbx5, directly drive a cardiac morphogenesis gene regulatory network. Here, we report instead that TBX5 directly drove Wnt ligands to initiate a bi-directional signaling loop between cardiopulmonary mesoderm and the foregut endoderm for endodermal pulmonary specification, and subsequently, atrial septation. TBX5 ChIP-seq identified cis-regulatory elements at Wnt2 sufficient for endogenous Wnt2 expression domains in vivo and required for Wnt2 expression in pre-cardiac mesoderm in vitro. Thus, Tbx5 initiated a mesoderm-endoderm-mesoderm signaling loop in lunged vertebrates that provides a molecular basis for the co-evolution of pulmonary and cardiac structures required for terrestrial life.

Single-cell transcriptomic analysis reveals lineage hierarcies and communications for second heart lineage deployment [RNA-seq]

Project description:We used single-cell RNA-seq to reconstruct differentiation paths of cardiac progenitors in two sequential waves during early heart development. Further analysis identified six major cell types and multiple differentiation trajectories of cardiac progenitors derived from distinct heart fields. We also constructed TF regulatory networks controlling SHF CPC differentiation. Interlineage crosstalk through signaling pathways and chemotactic guidance played a potent role in SHF CPC deployment. The mechanisms regulating SHF CPC migration and differentiation was further confirmed by Nkx2-5 CPC enhancer knock out. Our work provides a cardiac lineage hierarchy and new insights of SHF CPC development.

Transcription profiling of mouse embryonic stem cell derived cardiac progenitors

Project description:Mamamlian cardiogenesis occurs through the development of discreate populations of first and second heart field progenitors. We have used a dual transgenic color reproter system to isolate purified populations of these progenitors. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression underlying cardiac development in mouse; All four populations of cells are derived from embryonic stem cells differentiating in vitro (day 6 of in vitro differentaition). The stem cell line has two transgenic reporters as follows:; 1. The second heart field (SHF) specific reporter of the Mef2C gene (E. Dodou, S. M. Xu, B. L. Black, Mech Dev 120, 1021 (Sep, 2003)) driving the expression of dsRed; 2. The cardiac specific enhancer ( C. L. Lien et al., Development 126, 75 (Jan, 1999)) driving the expression of eGFP. Thus, the red cells are SHF specific, the green cells are cardiac specific, and the red/green are SHF and cardiac specific. These cells are compared to the double negative cells which serve as a control. Experiment Overall Design: Embryonic stem cell derived progenitors were isolated into four distinct populations by FACS purifying these progenitors based on a two color reporter system. Four populations were then compared to each other by transcriptional profiling.

Cardiac differentiation time-courses of human ES cells using distinct initial induction conditions

Project description:A simultaneous stimulation of the Activin / FGF, BMP, and WNT pathways is required for promoting most efficient mesoderm induction in human embryonic stem cells, as well as for subsequent differentiation into cardiomyocytes. To reveal the contributions of three of these signaling pathways to mesoderm formation and cardiac induction, comparative differentiation time-courses were recorded, varying the combinations of signaling factors administered to the cells during the first day of differentiation: FGF (F) + BMP (B) + WNT (W) treatment during the first 24 hours, or FGF + BMP, or BMP + WNT, or FGF + WNT

Cardiac mesoderm induction by Tbx6 without exogenous factors

Project description:Cardiac mesoderm, a precursor for all cardiovascular lineages, is a promising cell source for basic research and clinical applications. BMP/Nodal/Wnt signaling induces cardiac mesoderm in embryonic stem cells (ESCs); however the molecular mechanism is unclear and the differentiation protocols are labor-intensive. Identification of a master regulator that induces cardiac mesoderm is needed. Here we found that Tbx6 directly reprogrammed mouse fibroblasts into cardiac mesoderm-like cells, which differentiated into cardiomyocytes and smooth muscle cells with addition of lineage-specific transcription factors. In mouse ESCs, BMP/Activin (Nodal) induced Tbx6 in cardiac mesoderm, while inhibition of Tbx6 blocked differentiation into cardiac mesoderm and cardiomyocytes. Conversely, transient expression of Tbx6 induced cardiac mesoderm in ESCs without exogenous factors, and generated all cardiovascular lineages. Mechanistically, Tbx6 directly upregulated Mesp1, inhibited Sox2, and activated BMP/Nodal/Wnt signaling to induce cardiac mesoderm. Thus, Tbx6 acts as a key regulator for cardiac mesoderm induction, and our findings provide new insights into the mechanism of cardiovascular differentiation.
