ChIP-seq profiling of Foxp1 binding in basal and luminal mouse mammary cells

ABSTRACT: Long-lived quiescent mammary stem cells (MaSCs) are presumed to coordinate the dramatic expansion of ductal epithelium that occurs through the different phases of postnatal development, but little is known about the molecular regulators that underpin the activation of MaSCs. Here we show that ablation of the transcription factor Foxp1 in the mammary gland profoundly impairs ductal morphogenesis, resulting in a rudimentary tree throughout adult life. Foxp1-deficient glands were highly enriched for quiescent Tspan8hi MaSCs, which failed to become activated, even in competitive transplantation assays, and therefore harbor a cell-intrinsic defect. Luminal cells aberrantly expressed basal genes, suggesting that Foxp1 may also contribute to cell-fate decisions. Notably, Foxp1 was uncovered as a direct repressor of the Tspan8 gene in basal cells and deletion of Tspan8 could rescue the profound defects in ductal morphogenesis elicited by Foxp1 loss. Thus, a single transcriptional regulator, Foxp1, can control the exit of MaSCs from dormancy to orchestrate differentiation and development.

RNA-seq profiling of basal and luminal mammary cells from Foxp1-deficient and control mice

AP-2γ is Required for Maintenance of Multipotent Mammary Stem Cells

Project description:Mammary gland ductal morphogenesis depends on the differentiation of mammary stem cells (MaSCs) into basal and luminal lineages. The AP-2γ transcription factor, encoded by Tfap2c, has a central role in mammary gland development but its effect in mammary lineages and specifically MaSCs is largely unknown. Herein, we utilized an inducible, conditional knockout of Tfap2c to elucidate the role of AP-2γ in maintenance and differentiation of MaSCs. Loss of AP-2γ in the basal epithelium profoundly altered the transcriptomes and decreased the number of cells within several clusters of mammary epithelial cells, including adult MaSCs and luminal progenitors. AP-2γ regulated the expression of genes known to be required for mammary development including Cebpb, Nfkbia, and Rspo1. As a result, AP-2γ-deficient mice exhibited repressed mammary gland ductal outgrowth and inhibition of regenerative capacity. The findings demonstrate that AP-2γ can regulate development of mammary gland structures potentially regulating maintenance and differentiation of multipotent MaSCs.

3D genome organization coordinates key regulators of lineage specification in mammary epithelial cells [RNASeq_T8]

Project description:In order to understand gene regulation of epithelial cells in the mouse mammary gland, we have generated a comprehensive epigenetic atlas from freshly sorted myoepithelial (basal), luminal progenitor (LP) and mature luminal (ML) from adult mice (9 week-old) encompassing gene expression profiling, histone and polymerase II CUT&Tag sequencing, chromatin accessibility via ATAC-seq and chromatin interactions. We further studied the basal compartment by sorting to additional cell type population: Tspan8+ (quiescent basal, QBa) and Tspan8- (active basal, ABa) cells. We then performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RNA-seq of 2 different cell types Tspan8+ and Tspan8- cells.
