Jag1K295*/+ as a mouse model for Alagille syndrome

ABSTRACT: A new mouse mutant was identified at the Munich ENU mutagenesis project due to hyperactivity, head tossing, and circling behaviour. Neurological and gross morphological phenotyping of these mutant mice revealed impairment of the vestibular system. Using whole genome exome sequencing and a custom-made variant calling pipeline, we identified the causative mutation as an A->T substitution on the chromosome 2 at the position 128 in the exon 6 of jagged 1 (Jag1) gene. This introduces a premature termination codon at the position 883 of the cDNA. In humans, mutations in the JAG1 gene are associated with Alagille syndrome (ALGS1 ), a multisystem developmental disorder mainly affecting small bile ducts in the liver, but also heart, skeleton, and eyes, and occasionally also kidney or inner ears. Further examination of the Jag1K295*/+ mutant mouse line disclosed multiorgan deficiencies, such as cardiac liver congestion, bile duct hypoplasia, mild nephropathy, subvalvular hypertrophy of the right ventricle, and mild growth retardation. No skeletal abnormalities could be detected. In summary, we report a novel mouse model for Alagille syndrome, Jag1K295*/+, which resembles most of the features of the mild form of Alagille syndrome observed in patients.

RNA-Sequencing analysis of liver tissue from healthy WT mice and Foxa3-Cre YAP1 knockout mice at 3-4 months of age

Project description:We developed a mouse model of bile duct paucity by deleting Yes-associated protein 1 (YAP1) in foregut endoderm progenitors, using the Foxa3 promoter to drive Cre expression. YAP1 KO mice are viable postnatally and survive long-term despite a complete failure of intrahepatic bile duct development, resembling the liver phenotype of Alagille syndrome. We also observed no functional biliary regeneration over time. Adult YAP1 KO mice suffer from severe chronic cholestasis, but show minimal hepatocellular injury, suggesting that the hepatocytes have adapted to preserve liver function and reduce damage from the toxicity of bile acids and bilirubin. We used RNA-seq to analyze the gene expression patterns of whole liver tissue of adult YAP1 KO mice compared to WT, and found significant changes in metabolic activity, bile acid synthesis and transport that reflect hepatocyte reprogramming for survival.

RNA-seq analysis of hilar and peripheral biliary organoids from a mouse model of Alagille syndrome

Project description:To study molecular differences in wild-type and regenrated bile ducts in a mouse model of Alagille syndrome (Andersson, Chivukula, Hankeova, et al. Gastroenterology, 2018;154(4):1080-1095), we derived intrahepatic cholangiocyte organoids from hilar (pICOs) and peripheral (pICOs) regions of adult livers following a published protocol for organoids derivation and culture (Broutier et al., Nat Protoc. 2016;11:1724–1743). At passage 5, we isolated total RNA and performed bulk RNA-sequencing on 3 biological replicates from each region and genotype.

Human branching cholangiocyte organoids recapitulate embryogenic bile duct development and provide an unique model to study biliary diseases. RNA-Seq

Project description:Although providing promising and unique tools for studying cholangiocytes, current tissue-derived cholangiocyte-organoid systems do not recapitulate the complex architecture of the intrahepatic bile ducts in vitro. Here, we report a new method for creating branching cholangiocyte organoids (BRCO) from human adult tissue to study the intrahepatic biliary tree and diseases. BRCOs self-organize into large complex tubular structures, while closely resembling primary cholangiocytes on a transcriptomic and functional level. They are capable of mimicking branching bile duct development as well as being used for studying diseases in which the biliary tree does not develop properly (Alagille Syndrome). Furthermore, we deliver evidence that our culture method allows for formation of complex cholangiocyte cancer (cholangiocarcinoma, CCA) organoids. These branching CCA organoids resemble the primary tumor more closely compared to previously published protocols as well as showing unique tumor-specific drug responses. In conclusion, our culture method allows for creation of novel (malignant) cholangiocyte-organoids to study the intrahepatic bile ducts.

Proteomics analysis of bile acids modulation on rat colonic expression of water, electrolyte and drug transporters

Project description:Bile acid diarrhoea is a chronic condition with increased delivery of bile acids to the colon causing diarrhoea. In this study we used a rodent model of bile acid malabsorption to investigate the general impact on increased levels of bile acids on mRNA- and protein-expression in colon epithelial cells. Twelve male Wistar Munich rats were housed in metabolic cages and fed control or bile acid-mixed (1% w/w) diets for ten days. After euthanasia, colonic epithelial cells were isolated using Ca2+ chelation and processed for mass spectrometry-based proteomics to quantify changes in protein expressions.

A recessive point mutation is responsible for pleiotropic effects in a scube3 mutant mouse

Project description:We established and characterized a new recessive mutant mouse line kta41 with a point mutation in Scube3 at position 882. The mutant line was detected by screening for morphological abnormalities in the Munich ENU-mutagenesis program. The mutation was mapped by microsatellite markers to mouse chromosome 17, between markers D17MIT29 and D17MIT101. Candidate gene approaches failed due to the low recombination frequency and the high number of genes within the mapped interval. Whole genome sequencing approaches revealed a C to A transversion on position 882 in Scube3 that leads to a missense mutation in the protein (Asn294Lys). We did a broad phenotypic analysis of the mutant mouse line in the German Mouse Clinic (GMC), and followed up the found alterations by detailed phenotypic characterization. Scube3-kta41-/- mice show a series of phenotypic alterations, mainly in the skeleton, behavior and neurological abnormalities as well as changes in physiology, metabolism and immune status.
