Project description:In order to compare the gene expression profile of acinar-to-ductal metaplasia (ADM), ductal and acinar cells in the setting of pancreatitis, which were obtained by laser-capture microdissection (LMD) from frozen sections of wild type mice pancreata 2 days after caerulein administration, we performed microarray analysis. ADM has an intermediate property between ductal and acinar cells in the setting of pancreatitis, and Cxcr4 mRNA which is expressed in multipotent pancreatic progenitors, were up-regulated in ADM compared with ductal cells or acinar cells. Notably, in consistent with our immunostaining data, Dclk1 mRNA was highly expressed in ADM cells compared with ductal and acinar cells.

Project description:Acinar cell dedifferentiation is one of the most notable features of acute and chronic pancreatitis. It can also be the initial step that facilitates pancreatic cancer development. In the present study, we further decipher the precise mechanism and regulation using murine experimental models. Our RNAseq analysis indicates that, early acinar cell dedifferentiation is accompanied by multiple pathways related to cell survival that are highly enriched, and where SLC7A11 (xCT) is transiently upregulated. xCT is the specific subunit of the cystine/glutamate antiporter system xC-. Acinar cells with depleted or reduced xCT function show an increase in ferroptosis relating to lipid peroxidation. Lower glutathione levels and more lipid ROS accumulation could be rescued by the antioxidant N-acetylcysteine or the ferroptosis inhibitor Ferrostatin-1. In caerulein-induced acute pancreatitis in mice, xCT also prevents lipid peroxidation in acinar cells. In conclusion, during stress, acinar cell fate seems to be poised for avoiding several forms of cell death. xCT specifically prevents acinar cell ferroptosis by fueling the glutathione pool and maintaining ROS balance. The data suggest that xCT offers a druggable tipping point to steer the acinar cell fate in stress conditions.

Project description:Acinar cells make up the majority of all cells in the pancreas, yet the source of new acinar cells during homeostasis remains unknown. Using multicolor lineage-tracing and organoid-formation assays, we identified the presence of a progenitor-like acinar cell subpopulation. These cells have long-term self-renewal capacity, albeit in a unipotent fashion. We further demonstrate that binuclear acinar cells are terminally differentiated acinar cells. Transcriptome analysis of single acinar cells revealed the existence of a minor population of cells expressing progenitor markers. Interestingly, a gain of the identified markers accompanied by a transient gain of proliferation was observed following chemically induced pancreatitis. Altogether, our study identifies a functionally and molecularly distinct acinar subpopulation and thus transforms our understanding of the acinar cell compartment as a pool of equipotent secretory cells.

Project description:Acinar cells have been proposed as a cell-of-origin for pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasia (PanIN) after undergoing a highly regulated acinar to ductal metaplasia (ADM) process. ADM can be triggered by pancreatitis causing acinar cells de-differentiate to a ductal-like state. We identify Fra1 (gene name Fosl1) as the most enriched transcription factor during KrasG12D acute pancreatitis mediated injury. We have elucidated the functional role of Fra1 by generating an acinar-specific Fosl1 knockout mouse expressing KrasG12D (Ptf1aCreERT;KrasG12D;Fosl1fl/fl;YFP) . Using single nuclei ATAC-seq and bulk-RNA seq, we used pseudotime analysis and developed a gene-regulatory network governing de-differentiation to demonstrate that Fosl1 knockout mice are delayed in the onset of ADM and accompanying recovery. Fosl1 depletion prevents the pro-inflammatory effects of G-CSF, an ADM-promoting cytokine, suggesting that the G-CSF/Fra1 signaling axis can modulate ADM. Overall, our studies mark the first time a discrete transcriptional factor has been linked to the temporal regulation of ADM.

Project description:Obeticholic acid (OCA) has shown pharmacological protection activity in acinar cell injury and pancreatic necrosis in vitro. RNA sequencing was performed by extracting mRNA from CCK-induced damaged pancreatic acinar cells with or without the addition of OCA. Gene enrichment analysis by Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) identified oxidative phosphorylation in the top ten significantly changed pathways. Similarly, Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) enrichment analysis revealed clear alterations in "mitochondrial ATP synthesis coupled electron transport", "mitochondrial respiratory chain complex assembly", "NADH dehydrogenase complex assembly", and "oxidative phosphorylation".

Project description:Pancreatitis is triggered by environmental or cellular stress and is the leading contributor to pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. Altered gene expression in response to acinar cell stress determines the severity and duration of pancreatitis. However, it is unclear what factors contribute to this phenomenon. Here, we define a novel role for Activating Transcription Factor 3 (ATF3) during pancreatic injury. ATF3, a key mediator in the unfolded protein response, is robustly expressed in acinar cells during pancreatitis. Targeted deletion of Atf3 altered the molecular response to injury, with Atf3-/- acinar cells maintaining cell organization in response to cerulein, a well-established inducer of pancreatitis. Characterization of the mechanism using chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by Next Generation sequencing (ChIP-seq) identified 11,771 enrichment spots for ATF3, with known transcriptional start sites for >3,000 genes within 5 kb of ATF3 enrichment. Gene ontology analysis revealed a significant representation of ATF3 enrichment to genes affecting cell organization, including Mist1, a molecule required for establishing acinar cell organization. We confirmed a direct interaction of ATF3 to the Mist1 promoter during pancreatitis, and showed that ATF3 is required for altered Mist1 expression in response to injury. Finally, we demonstrate that ATF3 repression of Mist1 involves HDAC5. These findings suggest that ATF3 is a key transcriptional regulator during pancreatitis and promotes loss of the mature acinar cell phenotype in response to pancreatic injury. Two samples were produced from male mice 4 hours after CIP initiation from intraparitoneal injections of cerulein, a ChIP sample using an ATF3 antibody and an IP control.

Project description:The apical-basal polarity of pancreatic acinar cells is essential for maintaining tissue architecture. However, the mechanisms by which polarity proteins regulate acinar pancreas tissue homeostasis are poorly understood. Here, we evaluate the role of Par3 in acinar pancreas injury and homeostasis. While Par3 loss in the mouse pancreas disrupts tight junctions, Par3 loss is dispensable for pancreatogenesis. However, with aging, Par3 loss results in low-grade inflammation, acinar degeneration, and pancreatic lipomatosis. Par3 loss also exacerbates pancreatitis-induced acinar cell loss, resulting in pronounced pancreatic lipomatosis and failure to regenerate. Moreover, Par3 loss in mice harboring mutant Kras causes extensive pancreatic intraepithelial neoplastic (PanIN) lesions and large pancreatic cysts. We also show that Par3 loss restricts injury-induced primary ciliogenesis. Significantly, targeting BET proteins enhances primary ciliogenesis during pancreatitis-induced injury and, in mice with Par3 loss, limits pancreatitis-induced acinar loss and facilitates acinar cell regeneration. Combined, this study demonstrates how Par3 restrains pancreatitis- and Kras-induced changes in the pancreas and identifies a potential role for BET inhibitors to attenuate pancreas injury and facilitate pancreas tissue regeneration.
