HypoSUMOylation in embryonic stem cells generate head-trunk embryo-like structures [scRNAseq]

ABSTRACT: Numerous models of synthetic embryos have recently been established to simulate mammalian development. Two main strategies have been developed to build mouse or human embryo-like structures (ELS): by assembling embryonic and extraembryonic stem cells or by challenging embryonic stem cells (ESCs) with a pulse of WNT agonist. However, both models did not fully recapitulate early organogenesis, particularly the emergence of brain derivatives. SUMOylation was recently identified as a general barrier to cell fate transitions. Here, we show that mouse ESCs exposed to a small-molecule inhibitor of SUMOylation alone generate adherent spheroids which, once in suspension, self-organize in gastrulating structures containing cell types spatially and functionally-related to embryonic and extraembryonic compartments. Alternatively, spheroids cultured in an optimized droplet-microfluidic device form elongated ELS characterized by a multi-axial organization of the body plan reminiscent of natural embryo morphogenesis. Single-cell transcriptomics further revealed various cell types including anterior neuronal cell types, Schwann cell precursors and somites. Mechanistically, transient SUMOylation repression gradually increases the global level of DNA methylation, which in turn represses transcription of Nanog and other pluripotency-associated genes, enhancing cellular plasticity of ESCs. Our morphogen-free protocol constitutes a new facet to study regulative mechanisms of early development by targeting reprogramming roadblocks to shape multicellular architecture.

HypoSUMOylation in embryonic stem cells generates head-and-trunk embryo-like structure [ChIP-Seq]

Project description:Recent advances in synthetic mammalian embryo models have opened new avenues to understand the complex events controlling lineage decisions and morphogenetic processes occurring during peri-implantation and early organogenesis. Two main strategies have been developed to build embryo-like structures (ELS): by assembling extraembryonic and embryonic stem cells (ESCs) or by subjecting ESCs to various morphogens. Here, we show that mouse ESCs solely exposed to chemical inhibition of SUMOylation, a posttranslational modification which acts as a general barrier to cell-fate transitions, generates early ELSs comprising both anterior neural and trunk-associated regions. HypoSUMOylated ESCs give rise to adherent spheroids which, once in suspension, self-organize into gastrulating structures containing cell types spatially and functionally related to embryonic and extraembryonic compartments. Alternatively, spheroids cultured in an optimized droplet-microfluidic device form elongated structures characterized by a multi-axial organization reminiscent of natural embryo morphogenesis. Single-cell RNA-sequencing further revealed a variety of cellular lineages including properly positioned anterior neuronal cell types, Schwann cell precursors and paraxial mesoderm segmented into somite-like structures. Mechanistically, transient SUMOylation suppression gradually increases DNA methylation genome-wide and repressive marks deposition at Nanog, enhancing ESC plasticity. Our approach provides a proof of principle for a potential new strategy to study early embryogenesis by targeting reprogramming roadblocks to shape multicellular architecture.

Brief suppression of SUMOylation in embryonic stem cells generates embryo-like structures

Project description:Recent advances in synthetic mammalian embryo models have opened new avenues to understand the complex events controlling lineage specification and morphogenetic processes occurring during peri-implantation and early organogenesis. Two main strategies have been developed to build embryo-like structures (ELSs): by assembling extraembryonic and embryonic stem cells (ESCs) or by subjecting ESCs to various morphogens. Here, we show that mouse ESCs solely exposed to chemical inhibition of SUMOylation, a post-translational modification which acts as a general chromatin barrier to cell fate transitions, generates ELSs comprising both anterior neural and trunk-associated regions. HypoSUMOylation-instructed ESCs first give rise to adherent spheroids which, once in suspension, self-organize into gastrulating structures containing cell types spatially and functionally related to embryonic and extraembryonic compartments. Alternatively, spheroids cultured in an optimized droplet-microfluidic device form elongated structures that undergo axial organization reminiscent of natural embryo morphogenesis. Single-cell RNA-sequencing further revealed a variety of cellular lineages including properly positioned anterior neuronal cell types, Schwann cell precursors and paraxial mesoderm segmented into somite-like structures. Mechanistically, transient SUMOylation suppression gradually increases DNA methylation genome-wide and repressive marks deposition at Nanog, enhancing ESC plasticity. Our approach provides a proof of principle for a potential strategy to study early embryogenesis by targeting molecular roadblocks of cell fate change to shape multicellular architecture.

Mouse embryo model derived exclusively from embryonic stem cells undergoes neurulation and heart development

Project description:Several in vitro models have been developed to recapitulate mouse embryogenesis solely from embryonic stem cells (ESCs). Despite mimicking many aspects of early development, they fail to capture the interactions between embryonic and extraembryonic tissues. To overcome this difficulty, we have developed a mouse ESC-based in vitro model that reconstitutes the pluripotent ESC lineage and the two extra-embryonic lineages of the post-implantation embryo by transcription factor-mediated induction. This unified model recapitulates developmental events from embryonic day 5.5 to 8.5, including gastrulation, and formation of the anterior-posterior axis, brain, a beating heart structure, and the development of extraembryonic tissues, including yolk sac and chorion. Comparing single-cell RNA sequencing from individual structures with time-matched natural embryos identified remarkably similar transcriptional programs across lineages, but also showed when and where the model diverges from the natural program. Our findings demonstrate an extraordinary plasticity of ESCs to self-organize and generate a whole embryo-like structure.

Whole Genome Sequencing of HUES63 and HUES64

Project description:<p>In this study we used next generation deep sequencing technologies to analyze the genomes of Harvard University Stem Cell lines 63 and 64. We performed 101-bp paired-end whole genome sequencing of the two cell lines using Illumina HiSeq platforms. The sequence reads obtained were analyzed for copy number and used for replication timing analysis. Our data suggests that read depth profiles can be used to map replication timing in Embryonic Stem Cells (ESCs). Further we observe that replication profiles are highly correlated across ESCs but distinct from those of other cell types such as Lymphoblastoid Cell Lines (LCLs). These results demonstrated that read depth data from whole genome sequencing can be used to study variation in replication timing within the human population and across different cell types. Whole genome sequences from HUES63 and HUES64 used for this study are being submitted.</p>

Extensive protein group SUMO modification of repressive chromatin factors distinguishes pluripotent from somatic cells (total proteome)

Project description:Post-translational modification by SUMO is a key regulator of cell identity. In mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs), SUMO impedes reprogramming to pluripotency, while in embryonic stem cells (ESCs), it represses the emergence of totipotent-like cells, suggesting that SUMO targets distinct substrates to preserve somatic and pluripotent states. Using MS-based proteomics, we show that the composition of endogenous SUMOylomes differs dramatically between MEFs and ESCs. In MEFs, SUMO2/3 targets proteins associated with canonical SUMO functions, such as splicing, and transcriptional regulators driving somatic enhancer selection. In contrast, in ESCs, SUMO2/3 primarily modifies highly interconnected repressive chromatin complexes, thereby preventing chromatin opening and transitioning to totipotent-like states. We also characterize several SUMO-modified pluripotency factors and show that SUMOylation of Dppa2 and Dppa4 impedes the conversion to 2-cell-embryo-like states. Altogether, we propose that rewiring the repertoire of SUMO target networks is a major driver of cell fate decision during embryonic development.

Unveiling complexity and multipotentiality of early heart fields

Project description:Through high-resolution single cell and genetic lineage/clonal analyses, we show an unsuspected clonal relationship between extraembryonic mesoderm and cardiac lineages. Single-cell transcriptomics and trajectory analyses uncovered two mesodermal progenitor sources contributing to left ventricle cardiomyocytes, one embryonic and the other with an extraembryonic gene expression signature. Additional lineage-tracing studies revealed that the extraembryonic-related progenitors reside at the embryonic-extraembryonic interface in gastrulating embryos, and produce distinct cell types forming the pericardium, septum transversum, epicardium, dorsolateral regions of the left ventricle and atrioventricular canal myocardium, and extraembryonic mesoderm. Clonal analyses demonstrated that these progenitors are multipotent, giving rise to not only cardiomyocytes and serosal mesothelial cell types but also, remarkably, extraembryonic mesoderm.
