Hair follicle stem cells sense niche integrity and recruit immune cells to contain barrier breaches

ABSTRACT: We demonstrated that hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs) are able to sense the integrity of their epithelial niche. By ablating a core cell junction component E-cadherin (encoded by Cdh1), the epithelial niche no longer maintains proper barrier function, leading to microbial infiltration through the hair follicle. The surrounding HFSCs respond by increasing its expression of immune associated genes and recruiting immune cells to their niche so as to cope with compromised tissue function.

Paracrine TGFß Signaling Counterbalances BMP-Mediated Repression in Hair Follicle Stem Cell Activation

Project description:Hair follicle (HF) regeneration begins when communication between quiescent epithelial stem cells (SCs) and underlying mesenchymal dermal papillae (DP) generates sufficient activating cues to overcome repressive BMP signals from surrounding niche cells. We uncovered a hitherto unrecognized DP transmitter, TGFβ2, which activates Smad2/3 transiently in HFSCs concomitant with entry into tissue regeneration. We used microarrays to detect the genes specifically affected by TGFß receptor II-deficient mice upon HFSC activation. Hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs) of hair gem (HG) and bulge, and total skin keratinocytes were FACS-purified from the mouse back skin at 2nd telogen-to-anagen transition stages.

RNA-seq analysis of hair follicle stem cell transcriptome upon loss of the transcription factor FOXC1

Project description:We report downstream gene expression changes in stem cells of the adult mouse hair follicle upon conditional ablating of the transcription factor Forkhead Box C1 transcription factor (FOXC1). Hair follicles undergo cycles of rest (telogen; Tel) and regeneration (anagen; Ana). As such, we performed our analysis on these two different stages of hair follicles. mRNA-sequencing of WT vs. Foxc1-conditional or inducible KO (Foxc1-cKO or iKO) hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs) purified from mouse dorsal back skin by flow-activated cell sorting (FACS).

In vivo transcriptional goverance of hair follicle stem cells by canonical Wnt regulators

Project description:Mouse hair follicles undergo synchronized cycles. Cyclical regeneration and hair growth is fueled by hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs). HFSCs regenerate hair in response to canonical Wnt signalling. We used RNA-seq to unfold genome-wide chromatin landscapes of β-catenin within the native HFSC-niche.

Functional stem cell aging dictated by skin tissue microenvironment

Project description:Organismal aging in mammals is manifested with architectural alteration and functional decline of multiple organs throughout the body. In aged skin, hairs are sparse, which has led to the hypothesis that the hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs) undergo epidermal differentiation during aging. Here, we employ single cell analysis to interrogate aging-related changes in the HFSCs. Unexpectedly, HFSCs maintain their lineage fidelity and show no signs of shifting to an epidermal fate. Despite maintaining lineage identity, HFSCs do show prevalent transcriptional changes in extracellular matrix genes. Of importance, these HFSC changes are accompanied by profound architectural perturbations in the aging stem cell niche. Upon surveying the dermis from young and aged skin, we also observe age-related changes in many non-epithelial cell types, including resident immune cells, sensory neurons, arrector pili muscles, and blood vessels – all of which have been previously associated with abilities to modulate hair follicle regeneration. Consistent with both intrinsic and extrinsic alterations in stem cell: niche communications, we find that in response to skin wounding, aged HFSCs repair the epidermis, but are defective in hair follicle regeneration. Intriguingly, whereas aged dermis cannot support young HFSCs, aged HFSCs can be rescued when supported by young dermis. Together, these findings favor a model where skin tissue microenvironment plays a dominant role in dictating the molecular properties and activities of HFSCs.

Sympathetic nerves and arrector pili muscles form a dual component niche to regulate hair follicle stem cells

Project description:Piloerection (goosebump) requires concerted actions of the hair follicle, the arrector pili muscle (APM), and the sympathetic nerve, providing a model to study interactions across epithelium, mesenchyme, and nerves. Here, we show that APMs and sympathetic nerves form a dual component niche to modulate hair follicle stem cell (HFSC) activity. Sympathetic nerves form synapse-like structures with HFSCs and regulate HFSCs through norepinephrine, whereas APMs maintain sympathetic innervation to HFSCs. Without norepinephrine signaling, HFSCs enter a deep quiescence state by down-regulating cell cycle machinery and mitochondria metabolism, while up-regulating quiescence regulators Lhx2, Foxp1, and Fgf18. During development, HFSC progeny secrets Sonic Hedgehog (SHH) to direct the formation of this APM-sympathetic nerve niche, which in turn controls hair follicle regeneration in adults. Our results reveal a reciprocal interdependence between a regenerative tissue and its niche at different stages, and illustrate that nerves can modulate stem cell quiescence through synapses and neurotransmitters.

Next generation sequence analysis of cells derived from mouse hair follicles after long term culture

Project description:Follicle epithelial stem cells (HFSCs) have important functions for homeostasis of skin as well as hair follicle morphogenesis. In the present study, we screened different types of commercially available culture medium for culturing HFSCs. Among those tested, one type was shown capable of supporting the expression of stem cell markers in cultured HFSCs. However, the differentiation ability of HFSCs serially passaged using that optimal medium was found to be impaired, leading to unsuccessful formation of hair follicles in vivo.

SOX9: a Stem Cell Transcriptional Regulator of Secreted Niche Signaling Factors

Project description:Mouse hair follicles undergo synchronized cycles. Cyclical regeneration and hair growth is fueled by hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs). We used RNA-seq to identify SOX9-dependent transcriptional changes and ChIP-seq to identify SOX9-bound genes in HF-SCs. Telogen quiescent hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs) and intefollicular epidermal cells (IFE) were FACS-purified for ChIP-sequcencing and HFSCs for RNA-Sequencing

Niche stiffening compromises stem cell potential during aging by reducing chromatin accessibility at bivalent promoters

Project description:Tissue homeostasis and regeneration require activation and subsequent lineage commitment of tissue-resident stem cells (SCs). These state changes are controlled by epigenetic barriers. Using hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs) as paradigm, we studied how aging impacts the chromatin landscape and function of mammalian SCs. Analyses of genome-wide chromatin accessibility revealed that aged HFSCs displayed widespread reduction of chromatin accessibility specifically at key SC self-renewal and differentiation genes that were characterized by bivalent promoters carrying both activating and repressive chromatin marks. Consistently, aged HFSCs showed reduced self-renewing capacity and attenuated ability to activate expression of these bivalent genes upon regeneration. These functional defects were niche-dependent as transplantation of aged HFSCs into young recipients or into ex vivo niches restored SC functions and transcription of poised genes. Mechanistically, aged HFSC niche displayed wide-spread alterations in extracellular matrix composition and mechanics, resulting in compressive forces on SCs and subsequent transcriptional repression, leading to loss of bivalent promoters. Tuning tissue mechanics both in vivo and in vitro recapitulated age-related SC changes, implicating niche mechanics as a central regulator of genome organization and function leading to age-dependent SC exhaustion.
