Large-scale, quantitative proteomics reveals proteins required for planarian regeneration

ABSTRACT: Multi-omics studies are increasingly used to decipher the mechanisms underlying tissue regeneration. However, the use of proteomics for such studies has been limited due to the high cost and relatively low throughput and reproducibility. The genes required for planarian regeneration have primarily been identified based on changes in mRNA transcripts; previous studies have not addressed the possibility of protein upregulation prior to detectable increases in transcript abundance during the early stages of planarian regeneration. Here, we used in-depth high-throughput proteomics approaches to analyze the model planarian Schmidtea mediterranea during regeneration and discovered 13 proteins that are essential regulators of key regeneration steps. Two of these proteins, Troponin T and MRPL18, are key regulators of regeneration initiation and showed increases in protein abundance prior to upregulation at the mRNA level. Extensive comparisons between proteomic and transcriptomic datasets suggested the critical mechanisms beyond the transcriptional level, such as the translational and post-translational levels. In summary, this study revealed key regulators of regeneration in a model organism; furthermore, it established an adaptable spectral library and comprehensive proteomics datasets, enabling future in-depth and multi-omics analyses of planarian biology.

PRM validation of DEPs of planarian regeneration

Project description:Identifying regulators for tissue and organism regeneration is fundamental for regenerative biology and medicine. Most of the regenerative regulators studied by previous studies are derived from transcriptional changes, and few regulators have been screened for changes at the protein level. Here, we addressed this gap in knowledge by performing advanced mass spectrometry-based proteomics analyses of the model planarian Schmidtea mediterranea at 6 time points along regeneration. We established a spectral library covering approximately 10,000 proteins. Our proteomics data revealed upregulated ribosome biogenesis and ribosome, which was not observed in the transcriptome dataset but supported by Ribo-Seq analysis. Functional examination using RNA interference led to the discovery of 25 proteins essential for planarian regeneration. The protein abundance of ribosomal genes among them was significantly increased, while the transcription level showed a downward trend, and the translation level similarly showed an increasing trend. Troponin T was identified as a regulator of regeneration initiation that showed increased protein abundance before upregulation at the mRNA and translation level, suggesting a regulation of protein stability. Our study thus identifies ribosome-mediated and transcription-independent protein machinery essential for the initiation of planarian regeneration.

Adiponectin improves local lipid metabolism in regenerating pancreatic islets after β-cell ablation

Project description:Pathways that stimulate β-cell regeneration remain of great clinical interest, yet effective therapeutic avenues that promote survival or reconstitution of β-cell mass remain elusive. Utilizing a mouse model with inducible β-cell apoptosis followed by adiponectin-mediated regeneration, we aimed to identify key molecules boosting β-cell viability. Within the regenerating pancreatic islets, we examined changes within the transcriptome, and observed an extensive upregulation of genes encoding proteins involved in lipid transport and metabolism. The most prominent targets were further confirmed by quantitative PCR and immunofluorescence. Among the upstream regulators predicted by pathway analysis of the transcriptome, we detected enhanced levels of two key transcription factors, HNF4α and PPARα. Enhanced leptin levels in circulation may also contribute to the anti-lipotoxic program in islets. In summary, our data suggest that improving local lipid metabolism as an important anti-lipotoxic phenomenon to boost β-cell regeneration, primarily mediated by adiponectin’s action on the β-cells directly as well as on the adipocyte. RNA profiles of pancreatic islets isolated from PANIC-ATTAT mice crossed with adiponectin wild-type (P-Adn+/+) or the overexpressing transgene (P-AdnTg/+) at 5 weeks after initial dimerizer administration.

The Hydra magnipapillata head regeneration transcriptome

Project description:Hydra has long been studied for its remarkable ability to regenerate its head. Previous studies focusing on molecular mechanisms of axial patterning and head regeneration using a candidate gene approach have revealed a central role for the canonical Wnt pathway. We performed a global gene expression analysis during Hydra magnipapillata head regeneration using RNA-seq to identify additional genes that are transcriptionally regulated during the regeneration of the head organizer in hydra. Differential expression analysis revealed a set of 4,978 genes with significant changes during a 48-hour head regeneration time-course that includes many key genes in the Wnt, TGF-M-NM-2/BMP and MAP kinase pathways. We observed the differential regulation of several genes that are part of the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition in bilaterians such as Snail. We assembled 806 novel putative lincRNAs with 176 of these are differentially expressed during the time course. We observed the coordinated transcriptional regulation of several factors that regulate the effective pool of free M-NM-2-catenin that together synergize to increase the amount of M-NM-2-catenin available for transcriptional regulation of downstream genes. The differential expression of Snail and some of its interacting regulators and downstream targets suggests that a partial-EMT-like response is involved in hydra head regeneration. This time-course is a valuable resource for the study of the transcriptional dynamics of head regeneration in hydra. mRNA profiling of regenerating head from 6 time points post bisection of Hydra head (H. magnipapillata), generated by deep sequencing, in duplicates, using Illumina HiSeq2500.

Delay Modulates the Immune Response to Nerve Repair

Project description:Effective regeneration after peripheral nerve injury requires macrophage recruitment. We investigated activation of remodeling pathways within the macrophage population when repair is delayed and identified alteration of key upstream regulators of the inflammatory response. We then targeted one of these regulators, using exogenous IL10 to manipulate the response to injury at the repair site. We demonstrate that this approach alters macrophage polarization, promotes macrophage recruitment, axon extension, neuromuscular junction formation and increases the number of regenerating motor units reaching their target. We also demonstrate that this approach can rescue the effects of delayed nerve graft.

Zebrafish retinal proteome during experimental degeneration and regeneration

Project description:Zebrafish spontaneously regenerate the retina after injury. Currently, studies have observed gene expression profiles in this species however this may be a poor reflection of protein function. To further address this and expand our understanding of the regenerative process in the zebrafish, we compared the proteomic profile of the retina during injury and upon regeneration. Ouabain was injected intravitreously to create a model of degeneration and regeneration of the retina which was extracted at 0, 3 and 18 days after injection. Differences in protein expression indicates reduced metabolic processing, and increase in fibrin clot formation, with significant upregulation of fibrinogen gamma polypeptide, apolipoproteins A-Ib and A-II, galectin-1, and vitellogenin-6 during degeneration when compared to normal retina. In addition, cytoskeleton and membrane transport proteins were considerably altered during regeneration, with the highest fold upregulation observed for tubulin beta 2A, histone H2B and brain type fatty acid binding protein. Key proteins identified in this study may play an important role in the regeneration of the zebrafish retina and investigations on the potential regulation of these proteins may support future investigations in this field.

CCAAT‐enhancer binding protein delta functions as a tumor suppressor gene in acute myeloid leukemia

Project description:There is a continued need for identification of novel disease drivers of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) as many patients experience relapse and have poor clinical outcomes. Using genomic analyses of a study dataset of paired diagnosis and relapse specimens (n = 59), we identified recurrent downregulation of CCAAT-enhancer binding protein delta (CEBPD) expression at relapse and inferred CEBPD as one of the key regulators of gene transcription in a subset of relapse patients. Three independent public datasets validated downregulation of CEBPD expression at relapse and predicted it as a candidate tumor suppressor gene in AML. To evaluate CEBPD’s tumor suppressor function, we performed complementary loss- and gain-of-function experiments in human AML cell lines OCI-AML2 and OCI-AML5. Consistent with the prediction, knockdown of CEBPD expression led to activation of MAPK signaling and upregulation of downstream effectors cyclin D1 and TNFα expression with concomitant increase in leukemic growth, while CEBPD overexpression resulted in induction of myeloid differentiation marker CD14 expression in the cell lines. Consistent with prior reports, our integrative genomic analyses and azacytidine treatment experiments further suggest a role for DNA methylation in downregulation of CEBPD expression during AML progression. Collectively, our results provide direct functional evidence for a tumor suppressor function of CEBPD in human cell lines and support prior studies implicating its epigenetic silencing in human AML.

Epitranscriptomic maps of 5-methylcytosine reveal substrate diversity of NSUN methyltransferases and links to mRNA translation and turnover

Project description:Multiple epitranscriptomic maps of the RNA modification 5-methylcytosine (m5C) have been prepared, often diverging markedly from each other in terms of site abundance and identity. Differences in detection methods, data depth and analysis pipelines, but also biological factors underly much of this disparity. To address this, we re-analysed available datasets from five human cell lines and seven tissues, generated by the prevailing bisulfite RNA sequencing method, with a coherent m5C site calling pipeline. We used the resulting union list of 6,393 m5C sites called across the broader transcriptome to study site distribution, enzymology, interaction with RNA-binding proteins and molecular function. We confirmed prior observations such as predominance of m5C sites within mRNA exons, enrichment around start codons, and that the tRNA:m5C methyltransferases (MTases) NSUN2 and 6 are the main m5C ‘writers’ for mRNAs. Each NSUN enzyme recognises mRNA features that strongly resemble their respective canonical substrates. Assessing proximity between mRNA m5C sites and footprints of RNA-binding proteins reconfirmed the mRNA export factor ALYREF as an m5C ‘reader’ and identified new candidates for functional interactions, including the RNA helicases DDX3X, involved in mRNA translation, and UPF1, an mRNA decay factor. Experiments in HeLa cells lacking NSUN2 showed that this affected both, steady-state level and UPF1-binding to target mRNAs. Our studies emphasise the emerging diversity of both, m5C writers and readers, affecting mRNA function.
