A Runx1-enhancer element eR1 identified lineage restricted mammary luminal stem cells

ABSTRACT: Mammary gland homeostasis is maintained by adult tissue stem-progenitor cells residing within the luminal and basal epithelia. Dysregulation of mammary stem cells is a key mechanism for cancer development. However, stem cell characterization is challenging because reporter models using cell-specific promoters do not fully recapitulate the mammary stem cell populations. We previously found that a 270-basepair Runx1 enhancer element, named eR1, marked stem cells in the blood and stomach. Here, we identified eR1 activity in a rare subpopulation of the ERα-negative luminal epithelium in mouse mammary glands. Lineage-tracing using an eR1-CreERT2 mouse model revealed that eR1+ luminal cells generated the entire luminal lineage and milk-secreting alveoli – eR1 therefore specifically marks lineage-restricted luminal stem cells. eR1-targeted-conditional knockout of Runx1 led to the expansion of luminal epithelial cells, accompanied by elevated ERα expression. Our findings demonstrate a definitive role for Runx1 in the regulation of the eR1-positive luminal stem cell proliferation during mammary homeostasis. Our findings identify a mechanistic link for Runx1 in stem cell proliferation and its dysregulation in breast cancer. Runx1 inactivation is therefore likely to be an early hit in the cell-of-origin of ERα+ luminal type breast cancer.

Inhibitor of Differentiation 4 (ID4) represses myoepithelial differentiation of mammary stem cells through its interaction with HEB

Project description:Differentiation of stem cells embedded within the mammary epithelium is orchestrated by lineage-specifying transcription factors. Unlike the well-defined luminal hierarchy, dissection of the basal lineage has been hindered by a lack of specific markers. Inhibitor of Differentiation 4 (ID4) is a basally-restricted helix-loop-helix (HLH) transcription factor essential for mammary development. Here we show that ID4 is highly expressed in basal stem cells and decreases during myoepithelial differentiation. By integrating transcriptomic, proteomic and chromatin-association data we reveal that ID4 is required to suppress myoepithelial gene expression and cell fate.

MicroRNA-200c/141 confines ERα activity and expression pattern by targeting Ccnd1 [single-cell RNA-seq]

Project description:ERα is one of the most important transcription factors and therapeutic targets in breast cancer. The patterns of ERα expression in normal breast tissue and cancerous lesions are strikingly different. What drives the change of ERα pattern during lesions formation remains unclear. Here, we describe a novel regulatory mechanism through which miR-200c/141 regulates the level as well as the distribution of ERα in the mammary gland. miR-200c/141 is specifically expressed in luminal cells. Luminal-deletion of miR-200c/141 (miR-cKO) leads to a drastic expansion of ERα+ cell proportion. Single cell RNAseq reveals that miR-cKO generates aberrant luminal subpopulations with increased proliferative and anti-apoptotic features. In vivo lineage tracing of ER- luminal cells demonstrates that miR-200c/141 deletion can convert ER- cells into ER+ cells, which contribute partly to the increase of ERα+ luminal cells. Mechanistic study identifies Ccnd1 as a novel target of miR-200c/141 . Upon miR-200c/141deletion, elevated Ccnd1 level corroborates ERα transcriptional activation, leads to enhanced ERα signaling activity, consequently increased transcription of ERα coding gene Esr1 through self-activation at promoter E1. Our findings reveal a new miR-200c/141-Ccnd1-ERα axis, and provide new molecular insights into how miR-200c/141-Ccnd1 enforces the lineage barrier between ER- and ER+ luminal cells, and what drives the change of ERα expression pattern.

Microarray expression profiling study of Runx1-null and wild type luminal mammary epithelial cells

Project description:RUNX1 encodes a RUNX family transcription factor (TF) and was recently identified as a novel mutated gene in human luminal breast cancers. We found that Runx1 is expressed in all subpopulations of murine mammary epithelial cells (MECs) except the secretory alveolar luminal cells. Conditional knockout of Runx1 in MECs by MMTV-Cre led to a decrease in luminal MECs, largely due to a profound reduction in the estrogen receptor (ER)-positive mature luminal subpopulation, a phenotype that could be rescued by loss of either Trp53 or Rb1. Mechanistically RUNX1 represses Elf5, a master regulatory TF gene for alveolar cells, and activates Foxa1, a key mature luminal TF gene involved in the ER program. Collectively, our data identified a key regulator of the ER+ luminal lineage whose disruption may contribute to development of ER+ luminal breast cancer when under the background of either TP53 or RB1 loss. Thoracic and inguinal mammary glands from 3 MMTV-Cre;Runx1L/L;R26Y and 3 MMTV-Cre;Runx1+/+;R26Y adult virgin females were dissected out, minced and digested to single cell suspension. Runx1L is the floxed conditional knockout allele of Runx1. R26Y is a conditional YFP reporter that would be turned on upon Cre-mediated recombination. FACSaria machine was used to sort out the YFP-marked luminal epithelial cell population of each of these 6 mice. Total RNA was isolated with Qiagen RNeasy kit and subsequently amplified by Nugen V2 and applied to Affymetrix mouse genome 430 2.0 arrays.

Regulation of mammary luminal cell differentiation and tumorigenesis by p38α

Project description:Mammary stem and progenitor cells are essential for mammary gland homeostasis and are also candidates for cells of origin of mammary tumors. Here, we provide evidence that the protein kinase p38a is required for the differentiation of luminal progenitor cells through modulation of the transcription factors Runx1 and Foxa1. Moreover, using a mouse model for breast cancer initiated by luminal cells, we show that p38a downregulation in mammary epithelial cells reduces tumorigenesis, which correlates with reduced numbers of tumor-initiating cells. Our results identify p38a as a key regulator of luminal progenitor cell fate that facilitates mammary tumor formation.

Expression data from sorted control and Pygo2-null mouse mammary stem/basal cells

Project description:Skin-mammary specific knockout (SSKO) of Pygo2 (K14-cre; Pygo2 flox/-) , a WNT signaling co-activator, results in defective mouse mammary gland development. The FACS sorted mammary stem cell (MaSC)/basal population from Pygo2 SSKO mammary gland displays biased differentiation towards luminal/alveolar lineage in vitro, and reduced regeneration rate of new mammary gland in vivo To gain the insight into gene expression profiles in control and Pygo2 SSKO mammary epithelial cells (MECs), we sorted the freshly isolated mouse MECs into MaSC/basal (Lin-CD29hiCD24+) and mature luminal population (Lin-CD29lowCD24+CD61-), and extract total RNA for cDNA microarray analysis

Single cell RNA-seq reveals heterogeneity and hierarchy of mouse mammary epithelia

Project description:The mammary epithelia are mainly composed of two distinct lineages, the basal and luminal cells. Due to the limitation of traditional transcriptome analysis of bulk mammary cells, the hierarchy and heterogeneity of mammary cells within these two lineages remain unclear. Hence, we have performed single cell RNA-seq on mammary epithelial cells of virgin and pregnant mice. Based on the respective gene expression profiles, we found mammary cells are highly heterogeneous and can be classified into distinct subgroups with signature markers. Besides, we identified and verified a rare CDH5+ subpopulation of basal lineage as quiescent mammary gland stem cells (MaSCs). Furthermore, knockout of Cdh5 in mouse mammary cells via CRISPR-Cas9 significantly impairs cell stemness and promotes the cell differentiation to luminal lineage. In addition, via pseudo-temporal analysis, we reconstructed the mammary epithelia developmental trajectory and revealed the relevant changes of gene expression and biological functions of mammary cells along the developmental process.
