Project description:Wnt signaling are essential for the maintenance and differentiation of stem/progenitor cells, including trophoblast stem cells during placental development. Hyper-activation of Wnt signaling has been shown to relate with human trophoblast diseases. However, litter is known about the impact and underlying mechanisms of excessive Wnt signaling during placental trophoblast development. In the present work, we found that Sfrp1,5 double mutant mouse exhibited disturbed trophoblast differentiation in the placental ectoplacental cone (EPC), where the precursors of secondary trophoblast giant cells (TGCs) and trophoblast cells in the spongiotrophoblast layer are located. Employing mouse models expressing a trunked β-catenin with exon 3 deletion globally and trophoblast-specifically, combining cultured trophoblast stem cells, we found that hyper-activation of canonical Wnt pathway exhausted the trophoblast precursor cells in the EPC, resulting in the overabundance of giant cells at the expense of spongiotrophoblast cells. Further examination uncovered that hyper-activation of canonical Wnt pathway disturbed trophoblast differentiation in the EPC via repressing Mash2 expression. Collectively, our findings demonstrate that appropriate canonical Wnt-β-catenin pathway is essential for EPC trophoblast differentiation during placental development. Our work also has high clinical relevance, since abnormal Wnt signaling are often associated with trophoblast-related diseases.

Project description:Placental trophoblast cells are potentially at risk from circulating endocrine-disrupting chemicals, such as bisphenol A (BPA). To understand how BPA and the reputedly more inert bisphenol S (BPS) affect the placenta, C57BL6J mouse dams were fed 200 μg/kg body weight BPA or BPS daily for 2 wk and then bred. They continued to receive these chemicals until embryonic day 12.5, whereupon placental samples were collected and compared with unexposed controls. BPA and BPS altered the expression of an identical set of 13 genes. Both exposures led to a decrease in the area occupied by spongiotrophoblast relative to multinucleated giant cells (GCs) within the junctional zone, markedly reduced placental serotonin (5-HT) concentrations, and lowered 5-HT GC immunoreactivity. Concentrations of dopamine and 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid, the main metabolite of serotonin, were increased. GC dopamine immunoreactivity was increased in BPA- and BPS-exposed placentas. A strong positive correlation between 5-HT+ GCs and reductions in spongiotrophoblast to GC area suggests that this neurotransmitter is essential for maintaining cells within the junctional zone. In contrast, an inverse correlation existed between dopamine+ GCs and reductions spongiotrophoblast to GC area. These outcomes lead to the following conclusions. First, BPS exposure causes almost identical placental effects as BPA. Second, a major target of BPA/BPS is either spongiotrophoblast or GC within the junctional zone. Third, imbalances in neurotransmitter-positive GC and an observed decrease in docosahexaenoic acid and estradiol, also occurring in response to BPA/BPS exposure, likely affect the placental–brain axis of the developing mouse fetus.

Project description:Stem cells reside in specific niches providing stemness-maintaining environments. Thus, the regulated migration from these niches is associated with differentiation onset. However, mechanisms retaining stem cells in their niche remain poorly understood. Here, we show that the epigenetic regulator lysine-specific demethylase 1 (Lsd1) organises the trophoblast niche of the early mouse embryo by coordinating migration and invasion of trophoblast stem cells (TSCs). Lsd1 deficiency leads to the depletion of the stem cell pool resulting from precocious migration of TSCs. Migration is induced by premature expression of the transcription factor Ovol2 that is repressed by Lsd1 in undifferentiated wild-type TSCs. Increasing Ovol2 levels suffices to recapitulate the migration phenotype. Furthermore, Lsd1-deficient TSCs exhibit a developmental bias towards cells of the syncytiotrophoblast and impaired spongiotrophoblast and trophoblast giant cell differentiation. In summary, we describe that the epigenetic modifier Lsd1 coordinates placental development by retaining TSCs in their niche and directing trophoblast differentiation.

Project description:The placenta is a poorly understood yet vital support organ. Transcriptome analysis at single cell resolution can help us understand cell compositions, developmental processes, and physiological functions. Both mice and humans have the hemochorial placenta. Profiling the single cell transcriptome of the mouse placenta is necessary for deepening our knowledge of mammalian placentation.We systematically profiled single cell transcriptomes of mouse placentae every day from E7.5 to E14.5. After stringent filtering, 15682 mouse trophoblast cells were subjected to following transcriptome analysis. We noted that trophoblast cells underwent 3 main differentiation stages: E7.5-E8.5, E9.5-E10.5, and E11.5-E14.5. With the help of advanced computational technologies from Velocyto, PAGA, monocle, and SCENIC, we have updated the recognitions of several developmental events. Firstly, P-TGCs are suggested to only derive from EPC like cells. Secondary, sinusoid trophoblast and spongiotrophoblast all derived from EPC cells, and their cell fates have been determined before the chorioallantoic fusion. Sinusoid trophoblast cells were not derived from chorion. Thirdly, SpA-TGCs were suggested to be differentiated from spongiotrophoblast cells via Gly-T cells. Furthermore, new transcription factors have been found to play roles during the differentiation of trophoblast cells. Lastly, the expression of Ifnlr1 in chorion branch cells gradually increased during placentation, which reconfirmed that mature placenta can defend the Zika virus (ZIKV) through IFN signaling. We clarified the developmental histories of mouse trophoblast cells at the branch level, especially the differentiation of sinusoid branch trophoblast cells. Meanwhile, we offered a convincing data resource for the study of mammalian placentation and etiology analysis of pregnancy-associated diseases.

Mouse trophoblast stem cells (TSCs) were isoloated from a single conditional Lsd1-deficient mouse (Lsd1tm1SchM-CM-<le). Deletion of Lsd1 was induced eight days before the collection of RNA by addition of 0.2 M-BM-5M 4OH-tamoxife. Cells were isolated at successive stages of differentiation for total RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. To that end, we harvested cells at three time-points: before induction of differentiation (d0), two days after induction of differentiation (d2), and four days after induction of differentiation (d4). Three replicates (1, 2, 3) for control (-) and Lsd1-deficeint (+) cells were included for each differentiation stage.

Project description:We characterized regions of underrepresentation that are specific to mouse polyploid trophoblast giant cells. We performed array Comparative Genomics Hybridization (aCGH) to examine copy number variation (CNV) in mouse polyploid trophoblast giant cells (TGCs). We performed the following experiments in duplicates to examine CNV during various stages of in vivo and in vitro TGC development: e9.5 TGCs vs. embryonic controls, e11.5 TGCs vs. embryonic controls, e13.5 TGCs vs. embryonic controls, e16.5 TGCs vs. embryonic controls, as well as TGCs cultured 3, 5 and 7 days vs. 2N trophoblast stem cells. We also performed the following controls to show that underrepresentation is only found in polypoid trophoblast giant cells and not in either 2N placental cell types nor in other types of polyploid cells: 2N placenta disk vs. embryonic controls, 2N trophoblast stem cells vs. embryonic stem cells, and polyploid Megakaryocytes vs. embryonic controls. When possible, we performed arrays with the test and control samples of opposite sex (F-female, M-male), as an internal control for the array.

Project description:Bisphenol A (BPA) is a widespread Endocrine Disrupter mainly used in food contact plastics. Several evidences support BPA adverse effects, especially on susceptible groups such as pregnant women. The present study considered placental development - relevant for pregnancy outcomes and fetal nutrition/programming - as a potential target of BPA. Pregnant CD-1 mice were administered per os with vehicle, 0.5 (BPA05) or 50 mg/kg (BPA50) body weight (bw)/die of BPA, from gestational day (GD) 1 to GD11. At GD12, BPA50 induced significant degeneration and necrosis of giant cells, increased vacuolization in the junctional zone in absence of glycogen accumulation and reduction of the spongiotrophoblast layer. BPA05 induced a significant nuclear accumulation of M-NM-2-catenin in trophoblasts of the labyrinthine and spongiotrophoblast layers, supporting an activation of the Wnt/M-NM-2-catenin pathway. Transcriptomic analysis indicated a BPA05 promotion and a BPA50 inhibition of blood vessels development and branching supported by the morphological observation of decreased and increased total vessels area in the labyrinth layers upon BPA05 and BPA50 treatments, respectively, with BPA50 also inducing a decrease in vessels number. These mechanisms involve, respectively, CREB and Wnt/M-NM-2-catenin pathways for BPA05 and AhR/ARNT pathway for BPA50, as deducted by the transcription factor binding analysis. These results show that BPA differently affects mouse placental development depending on the dose level. In particular, the 0.5 mg/kw bw, in the range of dose level used to set the Tolerable Daily Intake, may elicit not negligible alterations whose relevance for human health has to be carefully evaluated. Three conidtions experiment: Control, BPA 0.5 mg/kg bw die; BPA 50 mg/kg bw die. Biological replicates: three control replicates; four replicates per treatment. Technical replicates: 2 (dye swap) per biological replica

Project description:We characterized the mouse trophoblast giant cell epigenome and gene expression profiles. We then compared these data to our data on underrepresentation in the polyploid trophoblast giant cells. We profiled 5 histone modifications (+ chromatin input) using ChIP-Seq, and digital expression profiles (3' RNA-Seq) for trophoblast giant cells derived from mouse. Furthermore, we profiled digital expression profiles (3' RNA-Seq) for in vivo trophoblast giant cells samples from e9.5 wildtype mouse trophoblast giant cells. We found that underrepresented domains in trophoblast giant cells are enriched for repressive marks and anti-correlate with active marks and transcription.

Project description:The inner cell mass (ICM) and trophoblast cell lineages duet early embryonic development in mammals. After implantation, the ICM forms the embryo proper as well as some extraembryonic tissues, whereas the trophoectoderm (TE) exclusively forms the fetal portion of the placenta and the trophoblast giant cells. Although embryonic stem (ES) cells can be derived from ICM in cultures of mouse blastocysts in the presence of LIF and/or combinations of small-molecule chemical compounds, and the undifferentiated pluripotent state can be stably maintained without use of serum and feeder cells, defined culture conditions for derivation and maintenance of undifferentiated trophoblast stem (TS) cells have not been established. Here, we report that addition of FGF2, activin A, XAV939, and Y27632 are necessary and sufficient for derivation of TS cells from both of E3.5 blastocysts and E6.5 early postimplantation extraembryonic ectoderm. Moreover, the undifferentiated TS cell state can be stably maintained in chemically defined culture conditions. Cells derived in this manner expressed TS cell marker genes, including Eomes, Elf5, Cdx2, Klf5, Cdh1, Esrrb, Sox2, and Tcfap2c; differentiated into all trophoblast subtypes (trophoblast giant cells, spongiotrophoblast, and labyrinthine trophoblast) in vitro; and exclusively contributed to trophoblast lineages in chimeric animals. This delineation of minimal requirements for derivation and self-renewal provides a defined platform for precise description and dissection of the molecular state of TS cells. Total RNA was purified by using RNeasy Mini kit (QIAGEN). Microarray targets from 200 ng total RNA were synthesized and labelled using the Low RNA Input Linear Amp Kit (Agilent) and hybridized to Mouse 4x44K Ver.2.0 arrays. Arrays were scanned on an Agilent Technologies Microarray scanner and signal intensities were calculated in Agilent Feature Extraction 10.7.3.1 software.
