Visium spatial gene expression analysis for human ureters

ABSTRACT: Tissue engineering offers a promising treatment strategy for ureteral strictures. Successful ureter engineering is necessitated by detailed understanding of the tissue architecture, cellular heterogeneity, and signaling pathways underlying regeneration. We define and spatially map cell populations within the human ureter by using a combinatorial approach: single-cell RNA sequencing, 10X Visium spatial transciptomics, and immunofluorescence. The stromal and urothelial cell populations are analyzed in detail, and we infer potential cell-cell communication networks underpinning the bi-directional crosstalk between these compartments. Specifically, we analyze and experimentally validate the importance of Sonic Hedgehog (SHH) signaling pathway in adult stem cell maintenance. The SHH-expressing basal cells support organoid generation in vitro, and accurately predict the differentiation trajectory of basal stem cells, to terminally differentiated umbrella cells, in vivo. Our results highlight essential processes involved in adult ureter tissue homeostasis, and provide a toolkit for guiding ureter tissue engineering.

Cytokeratin 15 marks basal epithelia in developing ureters and is upregulated in a subset of urothelial transitional cell carcinomas

Project description:The mammalian ureter contains a water-tight epithelium surrounded by smooth muscle. Key molecules have been defined which regulate ureteric bud initiation and drive the differentiation of ureteric mesenchyme into peristaltic smooth muscle. Less is known about mechanisms underlying the developmental patterning of the multilayered epithelium characterising the mature ureter. In skin, which also contains a multilayered epithelium, cytokeratin 15 (CK15), an intermediate filament protein, is a marker for cells whose progeny contribute to epidermal regeneration following wounding. Moreover, CK15+ precursor cells in skin can give rise to basal cell carcinomas. In the current study, using transcriptome microarrays of embryonic wild type mouse ureters, we detected Krt15, coding for CK15.

Gene expression analysis using the ureters of normal and ureteritis mice

Project description:Analysis of ureters of idiopathic ureteritis mice. The B cell functions associated genes were upregulated in the diseased ureters compared to nomal ureter. These results provide a basical information of molecular pathology in idiopathic ureteritis. In the study, the normal ureter (n=3) and diseased ureter (n=3) were used. The total RNA sample of each group was collected to 1 sample, 36,142 genes expressions were compared between these groups.

Sonic hedgehog signaling promotes basal radial glia and 1 intermediate progenitor cell

Project description:The unique mental abilities of humans are rooted in the immensely expanded and folded neocortex, which reflects the expansion of neural progenitors, especially basal progenitors including basalradial glia (bRGs, also called outer RGs) and intermediate progenitor cells (IPCs). Here, we show that constitutively active Shh signaling expanded basal progenitors and induced folding in the otherwise smooth mouse neocortex, whereas the loss of Shh signaling decreased the number of basal progenitors and the size of the neocortex. SHH signaling was strongly active in the human fetal neocortex but not in the mouse embryonic neocortex, and blocking SHH signaling in humancerebral organoids decreased the number of bRGs. Mechanistically, Shh signaling increased theinitial generation and self-renewal of bRGs as well as increasing IPC proliferation. Thus, robust SHH signaling in the human fetal neocortex may contribute to basal progenitor expansion and neocortical growth and folding.

Analysis of embryonic day E14.5 and E16.5 mouse ureters from Tshz3LacZ/LacZ mutants and wild types

Project description:In the urinary tract, smooth muscle (SM) is present in the renal pelvis, the ureter, the bladder and the urethra and plays a crucial role in the functional and structural integrity of these organs. In Tshz3 mutant ureters the myogenic program is not activated in the proximal region due to the absence of expression of myocardin (Myocd), a key regulator of SM differentiation. We set out to characterize TSHZ3-dependent mechanisms that participate to the process of ureteric smooth muscle cells (SMC) differentiation. To this aim, we used microarrays to identify distinct classes of up- and down-regulated genes in Tshz3LAcZ/LacZ mutant ureters at two different time points; at E14.5, which corresponds to the onset of the myogenic program and at E16.5, when SMC express the full repertoire of differentiation marker genes. Mouse embryonic (E14.5 and E16.5) wild type and Tshz3LacZ/LacZ mutant ureters were dissected for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.

Identification of prostaglandin receptors in human ureters.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Prostaglandins play an important role in ureteral obstruction, but the detailed expression profiles of the prostaglandin receptors (PTGER1, PTGER2, PTGER3, PTGER4, PTGFR) remain unknown in the different parts of the human ureter. METHODS: The expression pattern of PTGER1, PTGER2, PTGER3, PTGER4 and PTGFR was determined in human distal, mid and proximal ureter and renal pelvis samples using immunohistochemistry (protein levels) and quantitative real-time PCR (mRNA). RESULTS: PTGER1 was highly expressed in most samples irrespective of the ureteral localization; however, urothelial cells had higher levels of PTGER1 than smooth muscle cells. PTGFR was also moderately to strongly expressed in urothelial and smooth muscle cells. In comparison, PTGER2-4 expression was mostly unexpressed or weakly expressed in urothelial and smooth cells in all regions. CONCLUSIONS: Our data indicate high levels of PTGER1 in ureters.
