Project description:Highly regenerative tissues continuously produce terminally differentiated cells to replace those that are lost. How they orchestrate the complex transition from undifferentiated stem cells towards post-mitotic, molecularly distinct and often spatially segregated differentiated populations is not well understood. In the adult skin epidermis, the stem cell compartment contains molecularly heterogeneous subpopulations1-4 whose relationship to the complete trajectory of differentiation remains unknown. Here we show that differentiation, from commitment to exit from the stem cell layer, is a multi-day process wherein cells transit through a continuum of transcriptional changes with upregulation of differentiation genes preceding downregulation of typical stemness genes. Differentiation-committed cells remain capable of dividing to produce daughter cells fated to further differentiate, demonstrating that differentiation is uncoupled from cell cycle exit. These cell divisions are not required as part of an obligate transit-amplifying programme but help to buffer the differentiating cell pool during heightened demand. Thus, instead of distinct contributions from multiple progenitors, a continuous gradual differentiation process fuels homeostatic epidermal turnover.

Project description:Maintenance of adult tissues requires constant replacement of functional cells that are lost. How highly proliferative stem cell populations undergo differentiation to generate post-mitotic, terminal cell types is poorly understood. Here we combine intravital imaging with molecular insights to investigate how stem cell differentiation is orchestrated in the skin of living mice. We demonstrate that this journey, from initial gene expression changes to movement out of the stem cell compartment, occurs gradually and takes several days to complete. Differentiation-committed cells are capable of proliferating and generating progeny that complete the differentiation trajectory. These divisions are not required to amplify the pool of differentiating cells, but instead occur to protect density in the stem cell layer. Our results thus define epidermal differentiation as a multi-step process, with cell fate commitment temporally preceding the loss of proliferative capacity to satisfy distinct needs within the tissue.

Project description:During tissue closures, such as embryonic dorsal closure in Drosophila melanogaster, a proximate extra-embryonic layer, amnioserosa, generates forces that drive migration of the flanking lateral embryonic epidermis, thereby zip-shutting the embryo. Arguably, this paradigm of tissue closure is also recapitulated in mammalian wound healing wherein proximate fibroblasts transform into contractile myofibroblasts, develop cell junctions, and form a tissue layer de novo: contraction of the latter then aids in wound closure. Given this parallelism between disparate exemplars, we posit a general principle of tissue closure via proximate cell layer-generated forces. Here, we have tested this hypothesis in pupal thorax closure wherein 2 halves of the presumptive adult thorax of Drosophila, the contralateral heminotal epithelia, migrate over an underlying larval epidermal cell layer. We show that the proximate larval epidermal cell layer promotes thorax closure by its active contraction, orchestrated by its elaborate actomyosin network-driven epithelial cell dynamics, cell delamination, and death-the latter being prefigured by the activation of caspases. Larval epidermal cell dynamics generate contraction forces, which when relayed to the flanking heminota-via their mutual integrin-based adhesions-mediate thorax closure. Compromising any of these contraction force-generating mechanisms in the larval epidermal cell layer slows down heminotal migration, while loss of its relay to the flanking heminota abrogates the thorax closure altogether. Mathematical modeling further reconciles the biophysical underpinning of this emergent mechanism of thorax closure. Revealing mechanism of thorax closure apart, these findings show conservation of an essential principle of a proximate cell layer-driven tissue closure.

Project description:For placental mammals, the transition from the in utero maternal environment to postnatal life requires the activation of thermogenesis to maintain their core temperature. This is primarily accomplished by induction of uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) in brown and beige adipocytes, the principal sites for uncoupled respiration. Despite its importance, how placental mammals license their thermogenic adipocytes to participate in postnatal uncoupled respiration is not known. Here, we provide evidence that the 'alarmin' IL-33, a nuclear cytokine that activates type 2 immune responses, licenses brown and beige adipocytes for uncoupled respiration. We find that, in absence of IL-33 or ST2, beige and brown adipocytes develop normally but fail to express an appropriately spliced form of Ucp1 mRNA, resulting in absence of UCP1 protein, and impairment in uncoupled respiration and thermoregulation. Together, these data suggest that IL-33 and ST2 function as a developmental switch to license thermogenesis during the perinatal period.

Project description:The objectives of the study were to use RNA-Seq to examine the effect of (i) breed and (ii) gradual weaning, on the whole blood mRNA transcriptome of artificially reared Holstein-Friesian and Jersey calves. The calves were gradually weaned over 14 days (day (d) -13 to d 0) and mRNA transcription was examined one day before gradual weaning was initiated (d -14), one day after weaning (d 1) and 8 days after weaning (d 8). RNA-seq analysis was carried out on RNA extracted from whole blood. Gradual weaning had no effect on gene expression (P>0.05).There were 550 differentially expressed genes at a false discovery rate of 10% and with a â¥1.5-fold change, between Holstein-Friesian and Jersey calves on d -14, 490 on d 1, and 411 on d 8. GOseq/KEGG pathway analysis showed that the cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction pathway and the neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction pathway were over-represented between breeds on all days (P<0.01; Qâ¤0.1). These results demonstrate that the gradual weaning practiced here does not compromise the welfare of artificially-reared dairy calves, evidenced by the lack of expression changes in any genes in response to gradual weaning. These data also suggest differences in cell signalling and immune responses between breeds. Eight Holstein-Friesian and eight Jersey bull calves were group housed indoors and individually fed milk replacer and concentrate using an automatic feeder. Calves were gradually weaned by reducing milk-replacer from 6 litres to 0 litres over 14 days (d) (d -13 to d 0). Calves were blood sampled on d -14, 1, and 8, relative to weaning (d 0). RNA-seq analysis was carried out on RNA extracted from whole blood.

Project description:Mitotic exit requires extensive dephosphorylation of Ser/Thr residues by the PP1 and PP2A-B55 protein phosphatases in human cells. Several aspects of this are poorly understood including specific substrates and determinants of phosphatase specificity. Here we develop a novel in vitro assay, MRBLE-dephos, that allows multiplexing of dephosphorylation reactions to determine phosphatase specificity. Using MRBLE-dephos, we establish amino acid preferences of the residues surrounding the phosphorylation site for PP1 and PP2A-B55, which reveals common and unique preferences for the two phosphatases. We use specific inhibition of PP1 and PP2A-B55 in mitotic exit lysates coupled with quantitative phosphoproteomics to identify more than 2000 regulated phosphorylation sites and integrate this with mitotic interactomes to obtain a comprehensive map of mitotic dephosphorylation events. Importantly, the sites dephosphorylated during mitotic exit reveal key signatures that are consistent with the MRBLE-dephos results. We use these insights to specifically alter INCENP dephosphorylation kinetics at mitotic exit resulting in defective cytokinesis underscoring the biological relevance of our determined specificity principles. Finally, we provide a comprehensive characterization of PP1 binding motifs and show how these can shape dephosphorylation and how PP1 primes its own association with these motifs at mitotic exit. Collectively we provide a framework for understanding mitotic exit regulation by dephosphorylation and novel approaches to dissect protein phosphatase specificity.
