The Ets domain transcription factor Spdef drives maturation of Goblet and Paneth cells in the intestinal epithelium

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND & AIMS: Stems cells within the intestinal epithelium generate daughter cells which undergo lineage commitment and maturation through the concerted action of the Wnt and Notch signalling cascades. Both pathways, in turn, regulate transcription factor networks which further define differentiation towards either enterocytes or one of three secretory cell lineages (Paneth, goblet or enteroendocrine cells). In this manuscript, we identified the Ets domain transcription factor, Spdef, as a novel lineage maker of goblet and Paneth cells. METHODS: To address the function of Spdef in vivo, we inactivated the Spdef gene and analysed the intestinal phenotype using a range of histological techniques and DNA microarray profiling. RESULTS: In accordance with the expression data we found that loss of Spdef severely impaired the maturation of goblet and Paneth cells and conversely lead to an accumulation of immature secretory progenitors. Moreover, we provide evidence suggesting that Spdef positively and negatively regulates a specific subset of goblet and Paneth cell genes including Cryptdins, Mmp7, Ang4, Kallikreins, and Muc2. CONCLUSION: We propose a model whereby Spdef acts downstream of Math1 to promote terminal differentiation of a secretory progenitor pool towards Paneth and goblet cells.

Expression data from Spdef +/+ and Spdef -/- mice

Project description:Goblet cell numbers decrease within the conjunctival epithelium in drying and cicatrizing ocular surface diseases. Factors regulating goblet cell differentiation in conjunctival epithelium are unknown. Recent data indicate that the transcription factor SAM-pointed domain epithelial-specific transcription factor (Spdef) is essential for goblet cell differentiation in tracheobronchial and gastrointestinal epithelium of mice. Using Spdef -/- mice, we determined that Spdef is required for conjunctival goblet cell differentiation and that Spdef -/- mice, which lack conjunctival goblet cells, have significantly increased corneal surface fluorescein staining and tear volume, a phenotype consistent with dry eye. Microarray analysis of conjunctival epithelium in Spdef -/- mice identified 43 signficantly upregulated genes and 110 signficantly downregulated genes in the conjunctival epithelium of Spdef -/- mice compared to that of Spdef +/+ control mice (3 fold change, p<0.01). Downregulated genes of particular interested included goblet cell-specific genes (Muc5ac, Tff1, Gcnt3). Upregulated genes included epithelial cell differentiation/keratinization genes (Sprr2h, Tgm1) and pro-inflammatory genes (Il1-Î±, Il-1Î², Tnf-Î±), all of which are upregulated in dry eye. Interestingly, four Wnt pathway genes were downregulated. Conjunctival epithelium of Spdef +/+ and Spdef -/- mice was collected by laser capture microdissection for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays to determine if gene expression patterns in the conjunctival epithelium of Spdef -/- mice is altered compared to that of Spdef +/+ mice.

Stool-derived 16s rRNA V4 sequencing from intestinal-epithelium-LSD1-cKO mice against WT controls (both at 2-month-old and P14 timepoints)

Project description:Villin-Cre+ Lsd1fl/fl (cKO) mice display an immature intestinal epithelium characterized by an incomplete differentiation of enterocytes and secretory lineages, reduced number of goblet cells and a complete loss of Paneth cells. This experiment aims to elucidate the differences in stool microbial composition derived from WT (Villin-Cre- Lsd1fl/fl) and cKO mice both in adult (2-month-old) and neonatal (14 days postpartum P14) stages. Different timepoints are crucial to understand the role of intestinal maturation in microbiome composition since said maturation is dependent on time-dependent external cues happening at P14-21 (weaning and transition from milk to solid foods).

Stool-derived 16s rRNA V4 sequencing from inducible intestinal-epithelium-LSD1-cKO mice (Villin-CreERT2+ Lsd1fl/fl (icKO)) against WT (Villin-CreERT2+ Lsd1fl/+ (icKO)) controls (before and 1-6 weeks after tamoxifen treatment)

Project description:Upon tamoxifen induced recombination, Villin-CreERT2+ Lsd1fl/fl (icKO) mice develop an immature intestinal epithelium characterized by an incomplete differentiation of enterocytes and secretory lineages, reduced number of goblet cells and a complete loss of Paneth cells. The main goal of this experiment was to test whether maturation of intestinal epithelium affects microbiota establishment and development. In addition, this loss of differentiated cell types after Lsd1 recombination is gradual and dependent on renewal times of each specific cell type (i.e. enterocytes take less than a week to be fully replenished while Paneth cells cycle around every 4 weeks). Hence by collecting stool from the same mouse at different time points after tamoxifen induced recombination a relationship between loss of particular cell types and changes in bacterial populations can be established. In addition, we wanted to test whether maturation of intestinal epithelium affects microbiota establishment and development

Proteomic profiling of enteroid cultures skewed towards development of specific epithelial lineages

Project description:Recently, three-dimensional small intestinal organoids (enteroids) have been developed from cultures of intestinal stem cells which differentiate in vitro to generate all the differentiated epithelial cell types associated with the intestine and mimic the structural properties of the intestine observed in vivo. Small-molecule drug treatment can skew organoid epithelial cell differentiation towards particular lineages, and these skewed enteroids may provide useful tools to study specific epithelial cell populations, such as goblet and Paneth cells. However, the use and characterisation of enteroid models has not yet been fully explored, such that the extent to which differentiated epithelial cell populations in these skewed enteroids represent their in vivo counterparts is not fully understood. In this study, we have performed label-free quantitative proteomics to determine whether skewing murine enteroid cultures towards the goblet or Paneth cell lineages results in changes in abundance of proteins associated with these cell lineages in vivo. Our data confirm that skewed enteroids recapitulate important features of the in vivo gut environment, confirming that they can serve as useful models for the investigation of normal and disease processes in the intestine. Furthermore, by comparison of our mass spectrometry data with histology data contained within the Human Protein Atlas, we identify putative novel markers for goblet and Paneth cells.

RNA-seq of Paneth cells

Project description:The impact of removal of Mll1 in intestinal Paneth cells expressing an constitutively active form of beta-catenin (beta-cateninGOF) was analysed in 4 pairs of sorted Paneth cells of Lgr5-CreERT2; beta-cateninGOF;Mll1+/- (control) and Lgr5-CreERT2; beta-cateninGOF;Mll1-/- (knockout) mice at 10 days after tamoxifen-induced mutagenesis. Using 75-base-pair reads, around 30 million reads per sample with comparable unique mapped reads (52-93%) were obtained. To analyze differentially expressed genes, we applied DESeq2 analysis to the RNA-seq dataset. Differentially expressed genes in beta-cateninGOF; Mll1-/- versus beta-cateninGOF; Mll1+/- Paneth cells showed both up- and downregulation of genes at a false discovery rate (FDR) of 10%. This included a global increase in the expression of goblet cell-specific genes. Downregulated genes included specific markers of Paneth cells, indicating that ablation of Mll1 in Paneth cells shifted their identity towards a mixed Paneth-goblet cell fate.

Multi-omic analysis defines the first microRNA atlas across all small intestinal epithelial lineages and reveals microRNA markers of almost all major cell types

Project description:MicroRNA-mediated regulation is critical for the proper development and function of the small intestinal epithelium. However, it is not yet known which microRNAs are expressed in which cell types of the small intestinal epithelium. To bridge this important knowledge gap, in this study we performed a comprehensive profiling analysis of microRNAs in all major epithelial cell types of the mouse small intestine. We first used flow cytometry and fluorescence activated cell sorting with multiple different reporter mouse models to isolate intestinal stem cells (ISCs), enterocytes, goblet cells, Paneth cells, enteroendocrine cells (EECs), tuft cells and secretory progenitor cells. We then subjected these cell populations to small RNA-seq. We identified highly enriched microRNA markers for every major small intestinal epithelial cell type except goblet cells. Interestingly, one of the secretory progenitor cell enriched microRNAs, miR-672, is deleted in hominin species. Several of these lineage-enriched microRNAs (LEMs) were observed to be embedded in annotated host genes. We used chromatin run-on sequencing (ChRO-seq) to determine which of these LEMs are likely co-transcribed with their host genes. We then employed single cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) in order to define the cell type specificity of the host genes, and by proxy, the LEMs as well. Finally, using four additional in vivo models, we validated that miR-375 is highly enriched in secretory progenitor cells that give rise to enteroendocrine and tuft cells and that miR-152 is a Paneth cell-specific microRNA.

Single-cell RNA-seq reveals distinct maturation stages of the Paneth cell lineage

Project description:Paneth cells (PCs) are long-lived secretory cells that reside at the bottoms of small intestinal crypts. Besides serving as niche cells for the neighboring Lgr5-positive stem cells, PCs secrete granules containing a broad spectrum of antimicrobial proteins, including lysozymes and defensins1. Here, we have used single-cell RNA sequencing to explore PC differentiation. We found a maturation gradient from early secretory progenitors to mature PCs, capturing the full maturation path of PCs. Moreover, differential expression of a subset of defensin genes in lysozyme-high PCs, e.g. Defa20, reveals at least two distinct stages of maturation. We traced Lgr5+ stem cells from Lgr5-CreERT2 C57Bl6/J mice bred to a Rosa26LSL-YFP reporter mice and sorted YFP+ cells 5 days, 3 weeks and 8 weeks after tamoxifen injection.
