Generation of thyroid follicular cell organoids from adult thyroid tissue [Mouse single-cell]

ABSTRACT: The thyroid maintains systemic homeostasis by regulating serum thyroid hormone concentrations. Here we report the establishment of adult stem cell-derived three-dimensional (3D) organoids representing murine and human thyroid follicular cells (TFCs). The TFC organoids (TFCO) harbour the complete machinery of hormone production as visualised by the presence of colloid in the lumen and by the presence of essential transporters and enzymes in the polarised epithelial cells that surround a central lumen. Both the established murine as human thyroid organoids express canonical thyroid markers PAX8 and NKX2.1, while the thyroid hormone precursor thyroglobulin is expressed at comparable levels to tissue. Single cell RNA sequencing and transmission electron microscopy confirm that TFCOs phenocopy primary thyroid tissue. Thyroid hormones are readily detectable in conditioned medium of human TFCOs.

Transcriptional profiling of pax2a-Low and pax2a-High thyroid follicular cells in zebrafish

Project description:Thyroid follicular cells (TFCs) are responsible for generation, storage and release of thyroid hormone. Single-cell analysis of zebrafish thyroid gland demonstrated transcriptional heterogeneity within the TFC population (Gillotay et al., bioRxiv, 2020. doi: 10.1101/2020.01.13.891630. GEO dataset for single-cell RNA-Seq.: GSE133466). Particularly, TFC displayed transcriptional heterogeneity in the expression of pax2a, a transcription factor involved in differentiation and maturation of TFCs. To validate the genetic heterogeneity, we generated a pax2a knock-in line, in which mKO2 expression is driven by endogenous pax2a locus. Using Tg(tg:nls-EGFP); pax2a:mKO2-Knock-in, we sorted for TFCs (GFP+) and separated the pax2a-Low (mKO2-Low) and pax2a-High (mKO2-High) populations for NGS.

Single-cell RNA-Seq of mouse thyroid organoid

Project description:The thyroid gland regulates metabolism and growth via secretion of thyroid hormone by thyroid follicular cells (TFCs). Loss of TFCs, by cellular dysfunction, autoimmune destruction or surgical resection, underlies hypothyroidism. Recovery of thyroid hormone levels by transplantation of mature TFCs derived from stem cells in vitro holds great therapeutic promise. However, the utilization of in vitro derived tissue for regenerative medicine is restricted by the efficiency of differentiation protocols to generate mature organoids. Here, to improve the differentiation efficiency for thyroid organoids, we utilized single-cell RNA-Seq to chart the molecular steps undertaken by individual cells during the in vitro transformation of mouse embryonic stem cells to TFCs. Our single-cell atlas of mouse organoid systematically and comprehensively identifies, for the first time, the cell-types generated during production of thyroid organoids. Using pseudotime analysis, we identify molecular pathways that regulate thyroid maturation in vitro. Our study highlights the potential of single-cell molecular characterization in understanding and improving thyroid maturation, and paves the way for identification of therapeutic targets against thyroid disorders.

Structure of Human Thyroglobulin

Project description:Thyroid hormones T3 and T4 play a crucial role in the regulation of vertebrate metabolism. The thyroglobulin (Tg) protein is key to thyroid hormone synthesis, and its structure is conserved among vertebrates. TgG is delivered through the secretory pathway to the lumen of the thyroid gland, where it is iodinated at specific tyrosine sites to form mono- or di-iodotyrosine, which combine to produce T3 and T4, respectively. The formation of these hormones depends on the precise 3D structure of thyroglobulin, which has remained unknown despite decades of research on this protein. Here, we present the cryo-electron microscopy structure of human thyroglobulin, to a global resolution of 3.2 Å. Our results offer structural insight into thyroid hormonogenesis and provide a framework to understand hundreds of clinically relevant mutations. The structure of hTg contributes to a better understanding and potentially improved treatment of thyroid hypothyroidism, thyroid cancer and other Tg disorders.

Expression data of SAGM-grown cells derived thyroid follicular cells

Project description:We developed a novel culture system to obtain multilineage undifferentiated stem/progenitor cells from normal human thyroid tissues. This seems to be achieved by direct reprogramming of thyroid follicular cells. The objective of the study was to reveal gene expression profile of the obtained cells compared to primary thyrocytes. After enzymatic digestion, primary thyrocytes, expressing thyroglobulin and cytokeratin-18, were cultured in a serum-free medium called SAGM containing insulin and EGF. Although the vast majority of cells died, a small proportion (~0.5%) survived and proliferated. During initial cell expansion, thyroglobulin/cytokeratin-18 expression was gradually declined, suggesting that those cells are derived from thyroid follicular cells or at least thyroid-committed cells. The SAGM-grown cells did not express any thyroid-specific genes. However, after four-week incubation with FBS and TSH, cytokeratin-18, thyroglobulin, TSH receptor, PAX8 and TTF1 expressions re-emerged. Moreover, surprisingly, the cells were capable of differentiating into neuronal or adipogenic lineage depending on differentiating conditions.

Unraveling the molecular architecture of autoimmune thyroid diseases at spatial resolution

Project description:Autoimmune thyroid diseases (AITD) such as Graves' disease (GD) or Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) are organ-specific diseases related to complex interactions between distinct components of the thyroid ecosystem. We applied spatial transcriptomics (ST) to explore the molecular architecture and heterogeneity of different cells present in the thyroid tissue, including thyroid follicular cells (TFCs) and stromal cells such as fibroblasts and endothelial cells. We identified damaged antigen-presenting TFCs that had an upregulated CD74/MIF axis in thyroids from AITD patients. Furthermore, we discerned two main fibroblast subpopulations in the connective tissue including ADIRF+ myofibroblasts, mainly upregulated in GD, and inflammatory-associated fibroblasts (IAFs), mainly overexpressed in HT patients. We also demonstrated an increase of fenestrated PLVAP+ vessels in AITD, especially in GD. Our data unveil novel stromal and thyroid epithelial cell subpopulations that could play an essential role in the pathogenesis of AITD.

Mouse Thyroid Nanopore RNAseq

Project description:In the present work, we pull attention to a remarkable phenomenon of a perpetually and robustly upregulated gene, the thyroglobulin gene (Tg). The gene is expressed in the thyroid gland and, as it has been recently demonstrated, forms so called transcription loop easily observable with light microscopy. Using this feature, we show that Tg is expressed at a high level from the moment a thyroid cell acquires its identity and both of the alleles remain highly active over the entire cell life, i.e. depending on a species, for months or years. We demonstrate that the high upregulation is characteristic of thyroglobulin genes in all major vertebrate groups. We prove that Tg is not influenced by the organismal levels of T3/T4 hormones, does not oscillate round the clock and is expressed during both exocrine and endocrine phases of the thyrocyte activity. We conclude that the thyroglobulin gene represents a valuable model to study maintenance of a high transcriptional upregulation.

Bulk RNA-Seq of human thyroid organoids

Project description:The function of the thyroid gland is to metabolize iodide to synthesize hormones that act on almost all tissues and are essential for normal growth and metabolism. Low plasma levels of thyroid hormones lead to hypothyroidism, which is one of the most common diseases in the general population and cannot be always satisfactorily treated by lifelong hormone replacement. Therefore, in addition to the lack of in vitro tractable models to study human thyroid development, differentiation and maturation, there is a need for new therapeutic approaches that involve replacement of thyroid tissue to better control hormone balance. Here we report the first model of thyroid organoids derived from human embryonic stem cells that produce thyroid hormones in vitro and are capable of restoring plasma thyroid hormone levels when transplanted into athyreotic mice.
