Single-cell RNA-sequencing reveals distinct populations of glucagon-like peptide-1 producing cells in the mouse upper small intestine

ABSTRACT: Enteroendocrine L-cells release hormones that control metabolism and appetite and are targets under investigation for the treatment of diabetes and obesity. Understanding L-cell diversity and expression profiles is critical for identifying target receptors that will translate into altered hormone secretion. We performed single cell RNA sequencing of mouse L-cells from the upper small intestine to distinguish cellular populations, revealing that L-cells form 3 major clusters: a group with typical characteristics of classical L-cells, including high expression of Gcg and Pyy; a cell type overlapping with Gip-expressing K-cells; and a unique cluster expressing Tph1 and Pzp that was predominantly located in duodenal villi and co-produced 5HT. Expression of G-protein coupled receptors differed between clusters, suggesting the cell types are differentially regulated, and would be differentially targetable. Our findings support the emerging concept that many enteroendocrine cell populations are highly overlapping, with individual cells producing a range of peptides previously assigned to distinct cell types.

Robust differentiation of human enteroendocrine cells from intestinal stem cells

Project description:Enteroendocrine (EE) cells are the most abundant hormone-producing cells in humans and are critical regulators of energy homeostasis and gastrointestinal function. Challenges in converting human intestinal stem cells (ISCs) into functional EE cells, ex vivo, have limited progress in elucidating their role in disease pathogenesis and in harnessing their therapeutic potential. To address this, we employed small molecule targeting of key transcriptional regulators, GATA4, JNK and FOXO1, known to mediate endodermal development and hormone production, together with directed differentiation of human ISCs from the duodenum and rectum. We observed marked induction of EE cell differentiation and gut-derived expression and secretion of SST, 5HT, GIP, GLP-1 and PYY upon treatment with various combinations of three small molecules: rimonabant, SP600125 and AS1842856. Robust differentiation strategies capable of driving human EE cell differentiation is a critical step towards understanding these essential cells and the development of cell-based therapeutics.

Gdnf-treated murine intestinal organoids and sorted Ret+ and Ret- single cells

Project description:Adjacent stroma, including subepithelial fibroblasts, are believed to coordinate the differentiation process of epithelial cells, but the mechanisms are not well understood. Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) is expressed in the intestinal Pdgfra high subepithelial myofibroblasts (SEMFs), while the GDNF receptor RET is expressed in a subset of enteroendocrine cells (EECs), indicating regulatory crosstalk. In this experiment, single RET+ intestinal cells were sorted the gene expression profile was compared to non-RET cells. This provided knowledge about RET+ cell types. RET+ cells were upregulated with most of the EEC markers, indicating that RET+ cells are expressed in EECs. We also observed the differences in the gene expression profile of stromal-derived GDNF ligand on intestinal organoids. Organoids were derived from intestinal crypts of WT mice C57BL/6J and treated with 500ng/ml of Gdnf and Gfra1. GDNF-treated organoids induced the expression of EEC genes such as Pyy, Tac1, Tph1, and Cck, indicating enhanced differentiation of EC cell and L-I-N cell lineages. This highlights a stroma-epithelium crosstalk pathway regulating the differentiation of intestinal EEC subtypes.

Serotonin promotes the acquisition of an anti-inflammatory and pro-fibrotic profile in human macrophages via engagement of HTR7

Project description:Peripheral serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5HT) regulates cell growth and differentiation in numerous cell types through engagement of seven types of cell surface receptors (HTR1-7). Deregulated 5HT/HTR levels contribute to pathology in chronic inflammatory diseases, with macrophages being relevant targets for the physio-pathological effects of 5HT. In fact, 5HT skews human macrophage polarization through engagement of HTR2B and HTR7 receptors. We now report that 5HT primes macrophages for reduced pro-inflammatory cytokine production and IFN type I-mediated signalling, and promotes an anti-inflammatory and pro-fibrotic gene signature in human macrophages. The acquisition of the 5HT-dependent gene profile primarily depends on the HTR7 receptor and HTR7-initiated PKA-dependent signaling. In line with the transcriptional results, 5HT upregulates TGFb1 production by human macrophages in an HTR7- and PKA-dependent manner, whereas the absence of Htr7 in vivo results in diminished macrophage infiltration and collagen deposition in a mouse model of skin fibrosis. Our results indicate that the anti-inflammatory and pro-fibrotic activity of 5HT is primarily mediated through the HTR7-PKA axis, and that HTR7 contributes to pathology in fibrotic diseases.

Distinct Cellular Origins for Serotonin-Expressing and Enterochromaffin-like Cells in the Gastric Corpus

Project description:The alimentary tract contains a diffuse endocrine system comprising enteroendocrine cells that secrete peptides or biogenic amines to regulate digestion, insulin secretion, food intake, and energy homeostasis. Lineage analysis in the stomach revealed that a significant fraction of endocrine cells in the gastric corpus did not arise from neurogenin3-expressing cells, unlike enteroendocrine cells elsewhere in the digestive tract. We aimed to isolate enriched serotonin-secreting and enterochromaffin-like (ECL) cells from the stomach and to clarify their cellular origin. We used Neurod1 and Neurog3 lineage analysis, and examined differentiation of serotonin-producing and ECL cells in stomach tissues of Neurod1-cre;ROSAtdTom, Tph1-CFP, c-Kitwsh/wsh, and Neurog3Cre;ROSAtdTom mice, by immunohistochemistry. We used fluorescence-activated cell sorting to isolate each cell type for gene expression analysis. We performed RNA-seq analysis of ECL cells. Neither serotonin-secreting nor ECL cells of the corpus arose from cells expressing Neurod1. Serotonin-secreting cells expressed a number of mast cell genes, but not genes associated with endocrine differentiation; they did not develop in c-Kitwsh/wsh mice and were labeled with transplanted bone marrow cells. RNA-seq analysis of ECL cells revealed high expression levels of many genes common to endocrine cells including transcription factors, hormones, ion channels, and solute transporters but not markers of bone marrow cells. We used fluorescence-activated cell sorting to isolate Hdc+ cells from stomach corpus and performed RNA-seq for gene expression analysis to determine the origin of those cells.

Transcription profiling of mouse E12.5 ePet-EYFP rostral and caudal serotonin (5HT) neurons purified by flow cytometry

Project description:The 5HT system is organized into rostral and caudal populations with discrete anatomical locations and opposite axonal trajectories in the developing hindbrain. 5HT neuron cell bodies in the rostral subdivision migrate to the midbrain and pons and extend ascending projections throughout the forebrain. 5HT cell bodies in the caudal subdivision migrate to the ventral medulla and caudal half of the pons and provide descending projections to the brainstem and spinal cord. Experiment Overall Design: We used microarrays to determine genes expressed by both rostral and caudal 5HT neurons as well as genes that are differentially expressed between rostral and caudal 5HT neurons at E12.5 when axon pathfinding and cell migration are underway. E12.5 neural tubes were isolated from ePet-EYFP embryos and dissected into a rostral domain (mesecephalic flexure to pontine flexure) and a caudal domain (pontine flexure to spinal cord). After cell dissociation (details under growth protocol), cells were subjected to fluorescent activated cell sorting (FACS) to obtain 4 cell populations. R+ = rostral ePetEYFP positive 5HT neurons; R- = YFP negative non-serotonergic cells in the rostral neural tube; C+ = caudal ePetEYFP positive 5HT neurons; C- = YFP negative non-serotonergic cells in the caudal neural tube. 200,000 cells for each of the 4 cell types (R+, R-, C+, C-) were collected for RNA extraction and hybridization to Affymetrix Mouse 430 2.0 arrays.

ID2 controls differentiation of entero-endocrine cells in mouse small intestine

Project description:Aim: The mammalian gut is the largest endocrine organ. Dozens of hormones secreted by enteroendocrine cells regulate a variety of physiological functions of the gut but also of the pancreas and brain. Here, we examined the role of the helix-loop-helix transcription factor ID2 during the differentiation of intestinal stem cells along the enteroendocrine lineage. Methods: To assess the functions of ID2 in the adult mouse small intestine, we used single-cell RNA sequencing, genetically modified mice, and organoid assays. Results: We found that in the adult intestinal epithelium Id2 is predominantly expressed in enterochromaffin and peptidergic enteroendocrine cells. Consistently, the loss of Id2 leads to the reduction of Chromogranin A-positive enteroendocrine cells. In contrast, the numbers of tuft cells are increased in Id2 mutant small intestine. Moreover, ablation of Id2 elevates the numbers of Serotonin+ enterochromaffin cells and Ghrelin+ X-cells in the posterior part of the small intestine. Finally, Id2 acts downstream of BMP signalling during the differentiation of Glucagon Like Peptide-1+ L-cells and Cholecystokinin+ I-cells towards Neurotensin+PYY+ N-cells. Conclusion: Id2 plays an important role in cell fate decisions in the adult small intestine. Firstly, ID2 suppresses the differentiation of secretory intestinal epithelial progenitors towards tuft cell lineage and thus controls host immune response on commensal and parasitic microbiota. Next, ID2 is essential for establishing a differentiation gradient for enterochromaffin and X-cells along the anterior-posterior axis of the gut. Finally, ID2 is necessary for the differentiation of N-cells thus ensuring a differentiation gradient along the crypt-villi axis.

Integrative genomics of gene regulation by estrogen receptors and and coregulators [ChIP-seq]

Project description:The closely related transcription factors (TFs), estrogen receptors ER? and ER?, regulate divergent gene expression programs and proliferative outcomes in breast cancer. Utilizing MCF-7 breast cancer cells with ER?, ER?, or both receptors as a model system to define the basis of differing response specification by related TFs, we show that these TFs and their key coregulators, SRC3 and RIP140, generate overlapping as well as unique chromatin-binding and transcription-regulating modules. Cistrome and transcriptome analyses and use of clustering algorithms delineated 11 clusters representing different chromatin-bound receptor and coregulator assemblies that could be functionally associated through enrichment analysis with distinct patterns of gene regulation and preferential coregulator usage, RIP140 with ER? and SRC3 with ER?. The receptors modified each other’s transcriptional effect, and ER? countered the proliferative drive of ER? through several novel mechanisms associated with specific binding site clusters. Our findings delineate distinct TF-coregulator assemblies that function as control nodes specifying precise patterns of gene regulation, proliferation, and metabolism, as exemplified by two of the most important nuclear hormone receptors in human breast cancer. Examination of Estrogen Receptors alpha and beta and their coregulators SRC3 and RIP140 in different cell types

Mitral valve interstitial Tissue: Myxomatous P2 prolapse of the mitral valve vs. Control

Project description:Aim: Test the hypothesis that 5HT receptors (5HTRs) signaling contributes to MVP pathophysiology. Methods and results: MV RNA was used for microarray analysis of MVP patients versus control, highlighting genes that indicate the involvement of 5HTR pathways and extracellular matrix remodeling in MVP. These canine MVP leaflets (N=5/group) showed 5HTR2B upregulation. Conclusion: In humans, MVP is associated with an upregulation in 5HTR2B expression and increased 5HT receptor signaling in the leaflets. 5HTR signaling is involved not only in previously reported 5HTrelated valvulopathies, but it is also involved in the pathological remodeling of MVP.
