Three Transcription Factor Functions Empower Formative Transition from Naïve Pluripotency [ChIP-Seq]

ABSTRACT: The gene regulatory network in naïve mouse embryonic stem cells (ESC) is reconfigured to enable lineage commitment. Tcf3 sanctions rewiring to formative pluripotency by suppressing components of the ESC transcription factor circuitry. However, Tcf3 depletion only delays, and does not prevent transition. Here we delineate major contributions of Ets-family transcription factor Etv5 and the repressor Rbpj. ERK signalling triggers genome relocation of Etv5 to commission formative pluripotency enhancers. Concomitant up-regulation of Rbpj prevents reversion by repressing potent naïve factors, Nanog and Tbx3. Triple deletion of Etv5, Rbpj and Tcf3 disables naïve ESC, such that they remain undifferentiated and locked in self-renewal even in the presence of differentiation stimuli. Thus, pluripotency dynamics are driven by combined action of two repressors that respectively dissolve and extinguish the naive network, and an activator that initiates transcription of formative network genes. Similar tripartite modality might be a general requirement for robust cell state transitions.

Three Transcription Factor Functions Empower Progression from Naïve to Formative Pluripotency [RNA-Seq]

Project description:The gene regulatory network in naïve mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs) must be reconfigured for lineage competence. Tcf3 enables rewiring to formative pluripotency by repressing components of the ESC transcription factor circuitry. However, elimination of Tcf3 only delays, and does not prevent, state transition. Here we delineate distinct contributions of the Ets-family transcription factor Etv5 and the repressor Rbpj. Downstream of Erk1/2 signalling, Etv5 activates enhancers for formative pluripotency. Concomitant up-regulation of Rbpj ensures irreversible exit from the naïve state by extinguishing reversal factors, Nanog and Tbx3. Triple deletion of Etv5, Rbpj and Tcf3 incapacitates ESCs, such that they remain undifferentiated and locked in self-renewal even in the presence of differentiation stimuli. Thus, pluripotency progression is driven hierarchically by two repressors, that respectively dissolve and extinguish the naive network, and an initiator that commissions the formative network. Similar tripartite action may be a general mechanism for efficient cell transitions.

FoxO transcription factors actuate the formative pluripotency specific gene expression programme [ChIP-Seq]

Project description:Naïve pluripotency is sustained by a self-reinforcing gene regulatory network (GRN) comprising core and naïve pluripotency-specific transcription factors (TFs). Upon exiting naïve pluripotency, ES cells transition through a formative post-implantation-like pluripotent state. However, the mechanisms underlying disengagement from the naïve GRN and initiation of the formative GRN remain unclear. Here, we demonstrate that phosphorylated AKT acts as a gatekeeper that prevents nuclear localization of FoxO TFs in naïve ESCs. PTEN-mediated reduction of AKT activity allows nuclear entry by FoxO TFs, enforcing a cell fate transition by binding and activating formative pluripotency-specific enhancers. Indeed, FoxO TFs are necessary and sufficient for transition from the naïve to the formative pluripotent state. Our work uncovers a pivotal role for FoxO TFs and AKT signalling in mechanisms underlying the exit from naïve pluripotency, a critical early embryonic cell fate transition.

Transcriptional responses to Wnt pathway stimulation in mouse embryonic stem cells cultured in serum+LIF condition

Project description:The objective of this study was to identify genes regulated by canonical Wnt signaling in mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs).Canonical Wnt signaling supports the pluripotency of mouse ESCs but also promotes differentiation of early mammalian cell lineages. To explain these paradoxical observations, we explored the gene regulatory networks at play. Canonical Wnt signaling is intertwined with the pluripotency network comprising Nanog, Oct4, and Sox2 in mouse ESCs. In defined media supporting the derivation and propagation of mouse ESCs, Tcf3 and ?-catenin interact with Oct4; Tcf3 binds to Sox motif within Oct-Sox composite motifs that are also bound by Oct4-Sox2 complexes. Further, canonical Wnt signaling up-regulates the activity of the Pou5f1 distal enhancer via the Sox motif in mouse ESCs. When viewed in the context of published studies on Tcf3 and ?-catenin mutants, our findings suggest that Tcf3 counters pluripotency by competition with Sox2 at these sites, and Tcf3 inhibition is blocked by ?-catenin entry into this complex. Wnt pathway stimulation also triggers ?-catenin association at regulatory elements with classic Lef/Tcf motifs associated with differentiation programs. The failure to activate these targets in the presence of a MEK/ERK inhibitor essential for mouse ESC culture suggests that MEK/ERK signaling and canonical Wnt signaling combine to promote mouse ESC differentiation.

Cooperative genetic networks drive embryonic stem cell transition from naïve to formative pluripotency

Project description:In the mammalian embryo, epiblast cells must exit the naïve state and acquire formative pluripotency. This cell state transition is recapitulated by mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs), which undergo pluripotency progression in defined conditions in vitro. However, our understanding of the molecular cascades and gene networks involved in the exit from naïve pluripotency remains fragmentary. Here, we employed a combination of genetic screens in haploid ESCs, CRISPR/Cas9 gene disruption, large-scale transcriptomics and computational systems biology to delineate the regulatory circuits governing naïve state exit. Transcriptome profiles for 73 ESC lines deficient for regulators of the exit from naïve pluripotency predominantly manifest delays on the trajectory from naïve to formative epiblast. We find that gene networks operative in ESCs are also active during transition from pre- to post-implantation epiblast in utero. We identified 496 naïve state-associated genes tightly connected to the in vivo epiblast state transition and largely conserved in primate embryos. Integrated analysis of mutant transcriptomes revealed funnelling of multiple gene activities into discrete regulatory modules. Finally, we delineate how intersections with signalling pathways direct this pivotal mammalian cell state transition.

A DGCR8/FLII-dominated on-off switch for immediate-early genes governs embryo implantation in mouse and human [eCLIP]

Project description:As an essential checkpoint for successful pregnancy, mammalian embryo implantation initiates fetal-maternal communication. However, the underlying transcriptional regulation governing such a fast transition is still unknown. Here, we identify a DGCR8/FLII-dominated on-off switch for immediate-early genes (IEGs) governing pluripotency transition and morphogenesis of epiblasts upon embryo implantation. In mouse naïve embryonic stem cells (mESCs), we find the Microprocessor component DGCR8, but not DROSHA, can recognize mRNA stem-loop structures and further interact with and occupy transcriptional activator FLII to directly suppress transcription of non-miRNA target genes. Interestingly, when mESCs exit from naïve pluripotency, ERK signaling is quickly activated to induce FLII phosphorylation and disrupt DGCR8/FLII interaction. Phosphorylated FLII then binds to AP1, a typical IEG, to mediate the transcriptional activation of cell migration-related genes to establish poised pluripotency. Re-occupation of FLII by DGCR8 drives poised ESCs into formative pluripotency. Disruption of the DGCR8/FLII-mediated transcriptional activation inhibits the naïve-poised-formative ESC transition and the corresponding embryonic morphogenesis during implanting period, which is conserved in mouse and human.
