CHD1L Regulated PARP1-Driven Pluripotency and Chromatin Remodeling During the Early-Stage Cell Reprogramming.

ABSTRACT: PARP1 and poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation (PARylation) have been shown to be essential for the initial steps of cellular reprogramming. However, the mechanism underlying PARP1/PARylation-regulated activation of pluripotency loci remains undetermined. Here, we demonstrate that CHD1L, a DNA helicase, possesses chromatin remodeling activity and interacts with PARP1/PARylation in regulating pluripotency during reprogramming. We found that this interaction is mediated through the interplay of the CHD1L macro-domain and the PAR moiety of PARylated-PARP1. Chromatin immunoprecipitation assays demonstrated the co-occupancy of CHD1L and PARP1 at Pou5f1, Nanog, and Esrrb pluripotency loci. Knockdown of CHD1L significantly blocked the binding activity of PARP1 at pluripotency loci and inhibited the efficiency of PARP1-driven reprogramming. Notably, we found that CHD1L-promoted reprogramming requires both a PARP1-interacting domain and DNA helicase activity, partly contributing to the chromatin-remodeling states of pluripotency loci. Taken together, these results identify CHD1L as a key chromatin remodeler involved in PARP1/PARylation-regulated early-stage reprogramming and pluripotency in stem cells.

Project description:The generation of induced pluripotent stem cells has opened the field of study for stem cell research, disease modeling and drug development. However, the epigenetic signatures present in somatic cells make cell reprogramming still an inefficient process. This epigenetic memory constitutes an obstacle in cellular reprogramming. Here, we report the effect of hydralazine (HYD) and valproic acid (VPA), two small molecules with proven epigenetic activity, on the expression of pluripotency genes in adult (aHF) and neonatal (nbHF) human fibroblasts. aHF and nbHF were treated with HYD and/or VPA, and viability and gene expression assays for OCT4, NANOG, c-MYC, KLF4, DNMT1, TET3, ARID1A and ARID2 by quantitative PCR were performed. aHF and nbHF were transfected with episomal plasmid bearing Yamanaka factors (OCT4, SOX2, KLF4 and c-MYC) and exposed to HYD and VPA to determine the reprogramming efficiency. Methylation sensitive restriction enzyme (MSRE) qPCR assays were performed on OCT4 and NANOG promoter regions. Immunofluorescence assays were carried out for pluripotency genes on iPSC derived from aHF and nbHF. HYD upregulated the expression of OCT4 (2.5-fold) and NANOG (fourfold) genes but not c-Myc or KLF4 in aHF and had no significant effect on the expression of all these genes in nbHF. VPA upregulated the expression of NANOG (twofold) in aHF and c-MYC in nbHF, while it downregulated the expression of NANOG in nbHF. The combination of HYD and VPA canceled the OCT4 and NANOG overexpression induced by HYD in aHF, while it reinforced the effects of VPA on c-Myc expression in nbHF. The HYD-induced overexpression of OCT4 and NANOG in aHDF was not dependent on demethylation of gene promoters, and no changes in the reprogramming efficiency were observed in both cell populations despite the downregulation of epigenetic genes DNMT1, ARID1A, and ARID2 in nbHF. Our data provide evidence that HYD regulates the expression of OCT4 and NANOG pluripotency genes as well as ARID1A and ARID2 genes, two members of the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex family, in normal human dermal fibroblasts.
