Whole transcriptomes analyses of intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) isolated from Mst4F/F Villincre (Mst4 KO) mice and wildtype (WT) mice

ABSTRACT: Purpose: To explore the molecular mechanisms of MST4 regulating intestinal stem cell homeostasis, RNA sequencing was performed to analyze the geome-wide change of MST4 KO IECs compared to those of WT mice. Methods: Total mRNA was extracted from IECs which were isolated from small intestines of Mst4 KO mice and WT mice (8 weeks) in triplicate respectively. Then RNA quality was assessed using an Agilent Bioanalyzer 2100 and the sample reads were sequenced using Illumina Hiseq 4000 platform. As a reasult, we got the transcript data using Hisat2 followed by Stringtie. qRT–PCR validation was performed using TaqMan and SYBR Green assays. Results: We mapped about 60 million sequence reads per sample to the mouse genome and identified about 50,000 transcripts in IECs of mice. Apprioximately 2,000 transcripts showed different expression between Mst4 KO and WT IECs, with a fold change ≥2 and p value <0.05. Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) showed a significantly negative enrichment of Wnt/b-catenin target genes and altered expression of 15 genes was confirmed with qRT–PCR, demonstrating the high degree of sensitivity of the RNA-seq method. Conclusion: Our study present the datiled transcripts analysis of IECs isolated from small intestines, with biologic replicates. Based on RNA-seq transcriptome characterization , we conclude a molecular mechanism of MST4 regulating intestinal stem cell homeostasis and provide a framework to understand the crosstalk of MST4 and Wnt/b-catenin signaling.

Project description:Age-related decline in brain endothelial cell (BEC) function critically contributes to cerebrovascular and neurodegenerative disease. Comprehensive atlases of the BEC transcriptome have become available but results from proteomic profiling are lacking. To gain insights into endothelial pathways affected by aging, we developed a magnetic-activated cell sorting (MACS)-based mouse BEC enrichment protocol compatible with high-resolution mass-spectrometry and analysed the profiles of protein abundance changes across multiple time points between 3 and 18 months of age and identified Arf6 as one of the most prominently downregulated vesicle-mediated transport protein during BEC aging. To understand the role of ARF6 in human ECs, first we compared GFP-AAV treated human iECs differentiated from ARF6-KO vs WT iPSCs, next we compared ARF6-GFP-AAV vs GFP-AAV treated iECs differentiated from WT iPSCs. During the ARF6-KO vs WT iEC comparison we found 983 vs 741 proteins significantly down- and upregulated, respectively. Enrichment analyses of significantly downregulated proteins revealed mRNA processing among the most significantly affected biological processes. During the ARF6-GFP-AAV vs GFP-AAV treated WT iEC comparison we found 1106 vs 1218 proteins significantly down- and upregulated, respectively. Enrichment analyses of significantly upregulated proteins revealed endocytic recycling, retrograde transport (endosome to Golgi), and ER-Golgi vesicle-mediated transport among the most significantly affected biological processes. Specifically, ARF6 and its binding-protein GGA2, DNM1L and several subunits of the Conserved oligomeric Golgi complex (COG) were upregulated. Our approach uncovered changes not picked up by transcriptomic studies such as accumulation of vesicle cargo and receptor ligands including Apoe, a major regulator of brain lipid metabolism. Proteomic analysis of BECs from Apoe deficient mice revealed a signature of accelerated aging. To explore the role of APOE in human endothelial cells, in this experiment we compared human iECs differentiated from APOE-KO and WT iPSCs and found 326 significantly altered proteins. Enrichment analyses of significantly downregulated proteins revealed vesicle-mediated transport and vesicle fusion to be among the most significantly affected biological processes. Specifically, among the 34 significantly altered vesicle-mediated transport proteins 26 were downregulated. Accordingly, we found reduced levels of endocytosis of FM1-43FX in newly formed vesicles in APOE-KO iECs.
