Loss of PRC1 activity in different stem cell compartments activates a common transcriptional program with cell-type dependent outcome

ABSTRACT: Polycomb Repressive Complexes (PRCs) are evolutionary-conserved multiprotein complexes that maintain transcriptional repression during development and differentiation to establish and preserve cell identity. Through the enzymatic activity of the subunits Ring1A and Ring1B, PRC1 monoubiquitinates histone H2A on lysine 119, promoting nucleosome compaction. We recently described a fundamental role of PRC1 in preserving intestinal stem cells identity through the inhibition of non-lineage specific transcription factors. To gain more insight into the role of PRC1 in adult stem cell maintenance, we have now investigated its role in LGR5+ hair follicle stem cells during physiological regeneration. We show that PRC1 depletion in LGR5+ cells severely affects hair regeneration. Differently from what we described for ISCs, the release of target transcriptional repression upon loss of PRC1 activity induces the ectopic activation of an epidermal-specific program. Our data support a general role of PRC1 in preserving cell identity that is shared between different stem cell compartments. However, we propose that the final outcome of the ectopic activation of non-lineage specific transcription factors observed upon loss of PRC1 in stem cells is largely context-dependent and likely related to the transcription factors repertoire and the specific epigenetic landscape of the different cellular compartments.

Lgr6 Marks Stem Cells in the Hair Follicle that Generate all Cell Lineages of the Skin

Project description:Mammalian epidermis consists of three self-renewing compartments: the hair follicle, sebaceous gland and interfollicular epidermis. We generated knock-in alleles of murine Lgr6, a close relative to the Lgr5 stem cell gene. Lgr6 was expressed in the earliest embryonic hair placodes. In adult hair follicles, Lgr6+ cells resided in a previously uncharacterized region directly above the follicle bulge. They expressed none of the known bulge stem cell markers. Prenatal Lgr6+ cells established the hair follicle, sebaceous gland and interfollicular epidermis. Postnatally, Lgr6+ cells generated sebaceous gland and interfollicular epidermis, while contribution to hair lineages gradually diminished with age. Adult Lgr6+ cells executed long-term wound repair, including the formation of new hair follicles. We conclude that Lgr6 marks the most primitive epidermal stem cell. For the Lgr5 and Lgr6 stem cell comparison RNA was isolated from sorted GFPhi cell fractions of dorsal skin from Lgr5-EGFP-ires-CreERT2 mice and Lgr6-EGFP-ires-CreERT2, respectively (3 mice per group per sort).

Lhx2 ChIP-chip from primary mouse keratinocytes

Project description:The Lhx2 transcription factor plays essential roles in morphogenesis and patterning of ectodermal derivatives, as well as in controlling stem cell activity. Lhx2 is expressed in the hair follicle (HF) buds, while in postnatal telogen HFs Lhx2+ cells reside in the stem cell-enriched epithelial compartments (bulge, secondary hair germ) and co-express selected stem cell markers (Sox9, Tcf4 and Lgr5). Lhx2+ cells represent the vast majority of cells in the bulge and secondary hair germ that proliferate in response to skin injury. This is functionally important, since the wound re-epithelialization is significantly retarded in heterozygous Lhx2 knockout (+/-) mice, while anagen onset in the HFs located closely to the wound is accelerated compared to wild-type mice. Cell proliferation in the bulge and the number of Sox9+ and Tcf4+ cells in the HFs closely adjacent to the wound in Lhx2+/- mice are decreased in comparison to wild-type controls, while expression of Lgr5 and cell proliferation in the secondary hair germ are increased. Furthermore, acceleration of wound-induced anagen development in Lhx2+/- mice is inhibited by administration of Lgr5 siRNA. In addition, Chip-on-chip/ChIP-qPCR and reporter assay analyses reveal Sox9, Tcf4 and Lgr5 as direct Lhx2 targets in keratinocytes. These data strongly suggest that Lhx2 positively regulates Sox9 and Tcf4 in the bulge cells and promotes wound re-epithelization, while it simultaneously negatively regulates Lgr5 in the secondary hair germ and inhibits HF cycling. Thus, Lhx2 operates as a regulator of epithelial stem cell activity during skin response to injury. Chromatin form primary mouse keratinocytes (PMK) was subjected to ChIP analysis with Lhx2 antibody; input and ChIP DNA were labelled with Cy3 and Cy5 respectivly and used form Nimblegen MM8 Mouse Promoter Array

Ribosome impairment regulates intestinal stem cell identity via ZAKa activation.

Project description:The small intestine is a rapidly proliferating organ that is maintained by a small population of Lgr5-expressing intestinal stem cells (ISCs). However, several Lgr5-negative ISC populations have been identified, and this remarkable plasticity allows the intestine to rapidly respond to both the local environment and to damage. The mediators of such plasticity are still largely unknown. Using intestinal organoids and mouse models, we show that upon ribosome impairment (driven by Rptor deletion, amino acid starvation, or low dose cyclohexamide treatment) ISCs gain an Lgr5-negative, fetal-like identity. This is accompanied by a rewiring of metabolism. Our findings suggest that the ribosome can act as a sensor of nutrient availability, allowing ISCs to respond to the local nutrient environment. Mechanistically, we show that this phenotype requires the activation of ZAKɑ, which in turn activates YAP, via SRC. Together, our data reveals a central role for ribosome dynamics in intestinal stem cells, and identify the activation of ZAKɑ as a critical mediator of stem cell identity.

Active Lgr5 Positive Stem Cells Drive Self-Renewal in the Pyloric Stomach and Efficiently Build Pyloric Units In-vitro

Project description:The Wnt target gene Lgr5 marks cycling stem cells in the small intestine, colon and hair-follicle. In the adult stomach, Lgr5 expression is confined to 3-4 proliferating cells at the gland base throughout the pylorus and limited numbers of corpus-type glands adjacent to the esophagus and squamous forestomach. In-vivo lineage tracing reveals that the pyloric Lgr5+ve cells rapidly generate all the major cell-types present in the gastric epithelium and maintain this multipotent stem cell activity over at least 20 months. In-vitro, single adult Lgr5+ve cells efficiently generate gastric units closely resembling mature pyloric glands. We conclude that Lgr5 is marking an active stem cell population at the base of the pyloric glands contributing to the long-term renewal of the adult gastric epithelium. The transcriptome of the adult Lgr5+ve stem cells harbors multiple Wnt target genes, implying a role for Wnt signaling in regulating pyloric stem cell function in-vivo. Conditional deletion of APC in these Lgr5+ve stem cells rapidly initiates tumor formation, supporting a potential role for aberrant Wnt signaling activity in gastric cancer.

The Polycomb group protein CBX6 is an essential regulator of embryonic stem cell identity

Project description:Polycomb group proteins are transcriptional repressors that control cell identity and development. In mammals, at least five different CBX proteins are believed to associate with the core Polycomb repressive complex 1 (PRC1). CBX6 and CBX7 are the most highly expressed CBX proteins in embryonic stem cells (ESCs), yet little is known about the function of CBX6 in these cells. Here we show that CBX6 is an essential regulator of ESC identity, since ablation of CBX6 function destabilizes the pluripotency network and triggers differentiation. At the molecular level, CBX6 is linked to the canonical PRC1 (cPRC1) complex; however, contrary to expectations, our results indicate that CBX6 also has a non-canonical PRC1 function. Taken together, our findings reveal that CBX6 is an essential component for ESC biology and contributes to the structural and functional complexity of the PRC1 complex.

Gene expression profiles of DLD1 cells in which GATA6 or LGR5 expression was suppressed.

Project description:Mutations in APC or β-catenin that cause aberrant activation of Wnt signaling are responsible for the initiation of colorectal tumor development. LGR5 is specifically expressed in stem cells of the intestine, stomach and hair follicle, and plays essential roles in maintaining tissue homeostasis. LGR5-positive stem cells have been shown to be responsible for the intestinal adenoma initiated by some mutations in APC . Furthermore, it has recently been reported that Lgr5, which is associated with the Frizzled/Lrp Wnt receptor complex, interacts with R-spondins and thereby activates Wnt signaling. However, the function of LGR5 in colorectal tumorigenesis has been unclear. Here we show that LGR5 is required for the tumorigenicity of colorectal cancer cells. We also show that the transcription factor GATA6 directly enhances the expression of LGR5. DLD1 cells were infected with a lentivirus expressing an shRNA targeting GATA6 or LGR5.
