African Pygmy Mouse iPSCs as a Model for In Vitro Embryogenesis, Interspecies Chimerism, and Blastocyst Complementation

Project description:Somatic cell reprogramming into induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) was achieved in various mammals, however assessing iPSC contribution to full-term chimeras beyond laboratory rodents remains challenging. Here, we demonstrate induction of pluripotency in male and female fibroblasts from the African Pygmy Mouse (APM), one of the smallest mammals. Using transcription factors and small molecules, we derived expandable APM-iPSCs that express pluripotency markers, differentiate into various cell types in vitro, and form gastruloids. Injection of APM-iPSCs into house mouse blastocysts generated full-term interspecies chimeras demonstrating extensive contribution to various tissues, including testicular germ cells. Notably, high APM contribution in organs such as heart and testes correlated with reduced organ size compared with mouse organs. Lastly, injection of APM-iPSCs into mouse blastocysts carrying a Pax7 ablation system enabled substantial production of APM muscle stem cells in chimeras. Collectively, this study establishes APM-iPSCs as a developmental model for pluripotency, differentiation and interspecies chimerism.

Evolution of the African pygmy phenotype

Project description:The evolutionary history of the human ‘pygmy’ phenotype (small body size), a characteristic of African and Southeast Asian rainforest hunter-gatherers, is largely unknown. Here we use a genome-wide admixture mapping analysis to identify 16 genomic regions that are significantly associated with the pygmy phenotype in the Batwa, a rainforest hunter-gatherer population from Uganda (East Central Africa). The identified genomic regions have multiple attributes that provide supporting evidence of genuine association with the pygmy phenotype, including enrichments for SNPs previously associated with stature variation in Europeans and for genes with growth hormone receptor and regulation functions. To test adaptive evolutionary hypotheses we computed the haplotype-based iHS statistic and the level of population differentiation (FST) between the Batwa and their agricultural neighbors, the Bakiga, for each SNP. Both |iHS| and FST values were significantly higher for SNPs within the Batwa pygmy phenotype-associated regions than the remainder of the genome, a signature of polygenic adaptation. In contrast, when we expanded our analysis to include Baka rainforest hunter-gatherers from Cameroon and Gabon (West Central Africa) and Nzebi and Nzime neighboring agriculturalists, we did not observe elevated |iHS| or FST values in these genomic regions. Together, these results suggest adaptive and at least partially convergent origins of the pygmy phenotype even within Africa, supporting the hypothesis that small body size confers a selective advantage for tropical rainforest hunter-gatherers but raising questions about the antiquity of this behavior.
