Induction of Rosette-to-Lumen stage embryoids using reprogramming paradigms in ESCs

ABSTRACT: Blastocyst-derived stem cell lines were shown to self-organize into embryo-like structures in 3D cell culture environments. Here, we provide evidence that embryo-like structures can be generated solely based on transcription factor-mediated reprogramming of embryonic stem cells in a simple 3D co-culture system. Embryonic stem cells in these cultures self-organize into elongated, compartmentalized embryo-like structures reflecting aspects of the inner regions of the early post-implantation embryo. Single-cell RNA-seq reveals transcriptional profiles resembling epiblast, primitive-/visceral endoderm, and extraembryonic ectoderm of early murine embryos around E4.5–E5.5. In this stem cell-based embryo model, progression from rosette formation to lumenogenesis accompanied by progression from naïve- to primed pluripotency was observed within Epi-like cells. Additionally, lineage specification of primordial germ cells and distal/anterior visceral endoderm-like cells was observed in epiblast- or visceral endoderm-like compartments, respectively. The system presented in this study allows for fast and reproducible generation of embryo-like structures, providing an additional tool to study aspects of early embryogenesis.

Tissue-intrinsic beta-catenin signals antagonize Nodal-driven anterior visceral endoderm differentiation

Project description:The anterior-posterior axis of the mammalian embryo is laid down by the anterior visceral endoderm (AVE), an extraembryonic signaling center that is specified within the visceral endoderm. Current models posit that AVE differentiation is promoted globally by epiblast-derived Nodal signals, and spatially restricted by a BMP gradient established by the extraembryonic ectoderm. Here, we report spatially restricted AVE differentiation in bilayered embryo-like aggregates made from mouse embryonic stem cells that lack an extraembryonic ectoderm. Notably, clusters of AVE cells also form in pure visceral endoderm cultures upon activation of Nodal signaling, indicating that tissue-intrinsic factors can restrict AVE differentiation. We identify β-catenin activity as a tissue-intrinsic factor that antagonizes AVE-inducing Nodal signals. Together, our results show how an AVE-like population can arise through interactions between epiblast and visceral endoderm alone. This mechanism may be a flexible solution for axis patterning in a wide range of embryo geometries, and provide robustness to axis patterning when coupled with signal gradients.

Stem cell lines of the early mouse embryo

Project description:Expression profiling of stem cell lines derived from the early embryo representing the trophoblast, primitive endoderm, early epiblast (inner cell mass E3.5) and late post-implantation epiblast (E5.5). Cells were grown without feeders and harvested. Comparisons were made to provide evidence of unique gene expression between the cell lines. Specifically, pre-implantation (ICM, epiblast and primitive endoderm, and trophoblast), as well as pre-implantation and post-implantation epiblasts.

BMP4 signalling directs primitive endoderm-derived XEN cells to an extraembryonic visceral endoderm identity

Project description:The visceral endoderm (VE) is an epithelial tissue in the early postimplantation mouse embryo that encapsulates the pluripotent epiblast distally and the extraembryonic ectoderm proximally. In addition to facilitating nutrient exchange before the establishment of a circulation, the VE is critical for patterning the epiblast. Since VE is derived from the primitive endoderm (PrE) of the blastocyst, and PrE-derived eXtraembryonic ENdoderm (XEN) cells can be propagated in vitro, XEN cells should provide an important tool for identifying factors that direct VE differentiation. In this study, we demonstrated that BMP4 signalling induces the formation of a polarized epithelium in XEN cells. This morphological transition was reversible, and was associated with the acquisition of a molecular signature comparable to extraembryonic (ex) VE. Resembling exVE which will form the endoderm of the visceral yolk sac, BMP4-treated XEN cells regulated hematopoiesis by stimulating the expansion of primitive erythroid progenitors. We also observed that LIF exerted an antagonistic effect on BMP4-induced XEN cell differentiation, thereby impacting the extrinsic conditions used for the isolation and maintenance of XEN cells in an undifferentiated state. Taken together, our data suggest that XEN cells can be differentiated towards an exVE identity upon BMP4 stimulation, and therefore represent a valuable tool for investigating PrE lineage differentiation. Total RNA isolated in triplicate from XEN stem cell cultures that were untreated (samples 1-3) or treated with BMP4 growth factor (samples 4-6). Total RNA isolated in triplicate from XEN stem cells that were treated with BMP4 and were flow sorted as Afp::GFP-positive (samples 7-9) or Afp::GFP-negative (samples 10-12).

Bioengineered embryoids mimic post-implantation development in vitro [EmbryoidsTruseq3]

Project description:Here, we report a bioengineering-inspired approach to simultaneously coax mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs) into hundreds of uniform epiblast-like (EPI) aggregates in a solid matrix-free manner. When co-cultured with mouse trophoblast stem cell (TSC) aggregates, the resulting hybrid structures initiate gastrulation-like events and undergo axial morphogenesis to yield structures, termed EpiTS embryoids, with a pronounced anterior development, including brain-like regions.

Single-cell RNA-Seq of VE-enriched cell populations from E5.5 and E6.25 wild type mouse embryos

Project description:We investigated the transcriptomic features of the Visceral Endoderm during early post-implantation mouse embryonic development by means of Single Cell RNA-Sequencing (RNA-Seq). To enrich for Visceral Endoderm cells, we labelled the outer cells of the embryo with a fluorescent membrane-labelling dye, before single-cell dissociation and FACS to select the labelled population.

Efficient generation of ETX embryoids that recapitulate the entire window of murine egg cylinder development

Project description:The murine embryonic–trophoblast–extra-embryonic endoderm (ETX) model is an integrated stem cell–based model to study early postimplantation development. It is based on the self-assembly potential of embryonic, trophoblast, and hypoblast/primitive/visceral endoderm-type stem cell lines (ESC, TSC, and XEN, respectively) to arrange into postimplantation egg cylinder–like embryoids. Here, we provide an optimized method for reliable and efficient generation of ETX embryoids that develop into late gastrulation in static culture conditions. It is based on transgenic Gata6-overproducing ESCs and modified assembly and culture conditions. Using this method, up to 43% of assembled ETX embryoids exhibited a correct spatial distribution of the three stem cell derivatives at day 4 of culture. Of those, 40% progressed into ETX embryoids that both transcriptionally and morphologically faithfully mimicked in vivo postimplantation mouse development between E5.5 and E7.5. The ETX model system offers the opportunity to study the murine postimplantation egg cylinder stages and could serve as a source of various cell lineage precursors.

Dynamic proteomic profiling of extra-embryonic endoderm differentiation in mouse embryonic stem cells

Project description:During mammalian pre-implantation development, the cells of the blastocyst’s inner cell mass differentiate into the epiblast and primitive endoderm lineages, which give rise to the fetus and extra-embryonic tissues, respectively. Extra-embryonic endoderm differentiation can be modeled in vitro by induced expression of GATA transcription factors in mouse embryonic stem cells. Here we use this GATA-inducible system to quantitatively monitor the dynamics of global proteomic changes during the early stages of this differentiation event and also investigate the fully differentiated phenotype, as represented by embryo-derived extra-embryonic endoderm (XEN) cells. Using mass spectrometry-based quantitative proteomic profiling with multivariate data analysis tools, we reproducibly quantified 2,336 proteins across three biological replicates and have identified clusters of proteins characterized by distinct, dynamic temporal abundance profiles. We first used this approach to highlight novel marker candidates of the pluripotent state and extra-embryonic endoderm differentiation. Through functional annotation enrichment analysis, we have shown that the downregulation of chromatin-modifying enzymes, the re-organization of membrane trafficking machinery and the breakdown of cell-cell adhesion are successive steps of the extra-embryonic differentiation process. Thus, applying a range of sophisticated clustering approaches to a time-resolved proteomic dataset has allowed the elucidation of complex biological processes which characterize stem cell differentiation and could establish a general paradigm for the investigation of these processes.

Primitive endoderm stem cell lines in mice

Project description:A blastocyst consists of three distinctive cell types: epiblast (EPI), trophoblast (TB), and primitive endoderm (PrE). Stem cell lines representing EPI and TB (embryonic stem (ES) cells and trophoblast stem (TS) cells) have been derived and they contribute to epiblast derivatives and trophoblast derivatives of stem cell-blastocyst chimeras, respectively. Although derived from PrE, extraembryonic endoderm (XEN) cells contribute to only a limited part of parietal endoderm (PE) but rarely to other PrE derivatives. Here we describe the establishment of primitive endoderm stem (PrES) cell lines in mice. PrES cells were derived and maintained in a serum-free media containing CHIR99021, FGF4, heparin, and PDGF-AA. RNA-seq analysis revealed that the transcriptome of PrES cells is globaly different from XEN cells: PrES cells express not only endoderm markers (Dab2, Gata4, Gata6, Sox17, etc.), but also pluripotent markers (Pou5f1, Cdh1, Nanog, Zfp42, etc.), and resembles in vivo founder PrE. PrES cells were rapidly and efficiently incorporated into PrE after blastocyst injection and efficiently contributed to all PrE derivatives, including PE, VE (visceral endoderm), and MZE (marginal zone endoderm) in chimeras. Importantly, PrES cells rescued embryonic lethality of PrE-depleted blastocysts by complementing all PrE derivatives. PrES cells thus not only contribute to understanding of the mechanisms of PrE specification but also provide a critical resource for artificial embryo reconstitution by stem cells alone.
