Project description:Intestinal stem cell (ISC) differentiation is regulated precisely by a niche in the crypt, where lymphocytes may interact with stem and transient amplifying (TA) cells. However, whether and how lymphocyte-stem/TA cell contact affects ISC differentiation is largely unknown. Here, we uncover a novel role of T cell-stem/TA cell contact in ISC fate decisions. We show that intestinal lymphocyte depletion results in skewed ISC differentiation in mice, which can be rescued by T cell transfer. Mechanistically, integrin αEβ7 expressed on T cells binds to E-cadherin on ISCs and TA cells, triggering E-cadherin endocytosis and the consequent Wnt and Notch signaling alterations. Blocking αEβ7—E-cadherin adhesion suppresses Wnt signaling and promotes Notch signaling in ISCs and TA cells, leading to defective ISC differentiation. Thus, αEβ7+ T cells regulate ISC differentiation at single-cell level through cell-cell contact-mediated αEβ7—E-cadherin adhesion signaling, highlighting a critical role of the T cell-stem/TA cell contact in maintaining intestinal homeostasis.

Project description:We analyzed gene expression of 3 lines LGR5-GFP, 2 lines KRT20-GFP knock-in colorectal tumor organdies. The cancer stem cell (CSC) theory highlights a self-renewing subpopulation of cancer cells that fuels tumour growth. The existence of human CSCs is mainly supported by xenotransplantation of prospectively isolated cells, but their clonal dynamics and plasticity remain unclear. Here, we show that human LGR5+ colorectal cancer cells serve as CSCs in growing cancer tissues. Lineage-tracing experiments with a tamoxifen inducible Cre knock-in allele of LGR5 reveal the self-renewal and differentiation capacity of LGR5+ tumour cells. Selective ablation of LGR5+ CSCs in LGR5-iCaspase9 knock-in organoids leads to tumour regression, followed by tumour regrowth driven by re-emerging LGR5+ CSCs. KRT20 knock-in reporter marks differentiated cancer cells that constantly diminish in tumour tissues, while reverting to LGR5+ CSCs and contributing to tumour regrowth after LGR5+ CSC ablation. We also show that combined chemotherapy potentiates LGR5+ CSCs targeting. These data provide insights into the plasticity of CSCs and their potential as a therapeutic target in human colorectal cancer.

Project description:To follow the changes in the transcriptional programs accompanying the specification of the embryonic Lgr5+ cells we sequenced whole transcriptomes of embryonic intestinal epithelium progenitors (at E13.5 and E15.5). EpCAM positive embryonic gut epithelium was isolated from dissected small intestines using fluorescence activated cell sorting (FACS). Lgr5+ progenitors were purified on the basis of GFP fluorescence from Lgr5GFP-Cre-ERT mice (Barker et al. 2007). Double positive embryonic progenitors were isolated by FACS based on GFP and tdTomato fluorescence.

Project description:The identification of Lgr5 as an intestinal stem cell marker has made it possible to isolate and study primary stem cells from small intestine and skins. Applying genome-wide resequencing of bisulfite-treated genomic DNA, we profiled the DNA methylation changes of FACS-sorted Lgr5+ve stem cells and their immediate undifferentiated daughter cells from small intestine and skin. In addition to this, we also analyzed terminally differentiated villus cells. We find that terminal differentiation of an adult solid-tissue stem cell does not require DNA methylation dynamics at transcriptional start sites, but is characterized by hypo-methylation of enhancer-like domains. We used cell fractions of intestines from Lgr5-EGFP-ires-CreERT2 mice, expressing GFP under the control of the Lgr5 promoter. RNA was isolated from several FACS-sorted cell populations, one expressing GFP at high levels (GFPhi) and the other expressing GFP at low levels (GFPlow), both from small intestine and skin. We also isolated RNA from intestinal epithelial villus cells. Differentially labelled cRNA from GFPhi, GFPlow and villus cells from three different sorts (each combining three different mice) were hybridized on Affymetrix HT MG-430 PM arrays.

Project description:The identification of Lgr5 as an intestinal stem cell marker has made it possible to isolate and study primary intestinal stem cells. Applying quantitative mass spectrometry as well as transcriptomic analysis, we profiled the protein and gene changes between FACS-sorted Lgr5+ve stem cells and their immediate undifferentiated daughter cells. The overall comparison of mRNA and protein levels revealed a high level of correlation, implying that the initial control of intestinal stem cell biology occurs largely at the mRNA level. Taken together, our study presents a valuable resource for the study of intestinal stem cell biology. We used cell fractions of intestines from Lgr5-EGFP-ires-CreERT2 mice, expressing GFP under the control of the Lgr5 promoter. RNA was isolated from two FACS sorted cell populations, one expressing GFP at high levels (GFPbright) and the other expressing GFP at low levels (GFPdim). The gates set to sort cells for the expression profiling were the same as for the cells used for the mass spectometry analysis. cRNA from GFPbright and GFPdim cells from three different sorts (each combining three to four mice) were hybridized on Affymetrix Mouse HT MG-430 PM plate arrays.

Project description:Rb and E2F are thought to play antagonistic roles in celll proliferation. However, this model is based mostly from in vitro cell culture systems. We used small intestines to test this model in vivo. We found that deletion of E2f1-3 in the small intestine of mice suppressed the ectopic expression of E2F targets and cell proliferation caused by Rb-deficiency. Surprisingly, E2f1-3 deletion failed to arrest the proliferation of intestinal cells containing an intact Rb gene, and instead led to E2F target derepression and apoptosis. Experiment Overall Design: Total RNA of crypts and villi from wild-type, Rb-/-, E2f1-/-, E2f2-/-, E2f3-/-, E2f1-/-, E2f2-/-, and E2f3-/- small intestines. Small intestines were harvested 7 days after mice were injected intraperitoneally with beta-napthoflavone.
