Single-cell transcriptome profiling of mouse colonic mucosa in colitis

ABSTRACT: Chronic injury and inflammation pose high risks for epithelial dysplasia and cancer. In the “field cancerization” model, spontaneous mutations confer a stem-cell fitness advantage and promote gradual clonal expansion. Here, through 3d imaging, fate-mapping, biophysical modeling, and single-cell transcriptomics in a mouse model of acute colitis, we define an alternate, rapid mechanism for clonal expansion: the neutral activation of metabolically reprogrammed “founder progenitor cells” (FPCs) during wound healing. FPCs leverage the breakdown of normal crypt regenerative boundaries to expand multiplicatively into new crypts patterned from a zone of cellular mixing and plasticity. FPCs represent relatively generic proliferative cells probabilistically emerging from a background of fetal-reprogrammed epithelium and derive from both surface and basal zones of the injured colonic mucosa. Acute wound healing activates spatial and lineage plasticity to generate clonal fields without significant mutational burden. These results suggest that hallmark pre-neoplastic changes may arise from a punctuated pattern of injury and healing rather than gradual field cancerization.

Analysis of gene expression in zebrafish cornea during wound healing

Project description:The cornea, transparent and outermost structure of camera-type eyes, is prone to environmental challenges, but has remarkable wound healing capabilities which enables to preserve vision. The manner in which cell plasticity impacts wound healing remains to be determined. In this study, we report rapid wound closure after zebrafish corneal epithelium abrasion. Furthermore, by investigating the cellular and molecular events taking place during corneal epithelial closure, we show the induction of a bilateral response to a unilateral wound. Our transcriptomic results, together with our TGF-beta receptor inhibition experiments, demonstrate conclusively the crucial role of TGF-beta signaling in corneal wound healing. Finally, our results on Pax6 expression and bilateral wound healing, demonstrate the decisive impact of epithelial cell plasticity on the pace of healing. Altogether, our study describes terminally differentiated cell competencies in the healing of an injured cornea. These findings will enhance the translation of research on cell plasticity to organ regeneration.

Microenvironment-induced CREPT expression by cancer-derived small extracellular vesicles primes field cancerization

Project description:Cancer local recurrence increases the mortality of patients, and might be caused by field cancerization, a pre-malignant alteration of normal epithelial cells. It has been suggested that cancer-derived small extracellular vesicles (CDEs) may contribute to field cancerization, but the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. In this study, we aim to identify the key regulatory factors within recipient cells under the instigation of CDEs. In vitro experiments were performed to demonstrate that CDEs promote the expression of CREPT in normal epithelial cells. TMT-based quantitative mass spectrometry was employed to investigate the proteomic differences between normal cells and tumor cells. Loss-of-function approaches by CRISPR-Cas9 system were used to assess the role of CREPT in CDEs-induced field cancerization. RNA-seq was performed to explore the genes regulated by CREPT during field cancerization. CDEs promote field cancerization by inducing the expression of CREPT in non-malignant epithelial cells through activating the ERK signaling pathway. Intriguingly, CDEs failed to induce field cancerization when CREPT was deleted, highlighting the importance of CREPT. Transcriptomic analyses revealed that CDEs elicited inflammatory responses, primarily through activation of the TNF signaling pathway. CREPT, in turn, regulates the transduction of downstream signals of TNF by modulating the expression of TNFR2 and PI3K, thereby promoting inflammation-to-cancer transition. CREPT not only serves as a biomarker for field cancerization, but also emerges as a target for preventing the cancer local recurrence.

Lifelong tissue memory relies on spatially organized dedicated progenitors located distally from the injury [ATAC-Seq]

Project description:It is believed epithelial cells that have participated in a wound repair elicit a more efficient but locally restricted response to future injuries. However here we show that the cell adaptation resulting from a localised tissue damage has a wide spatial impact at a scale not previously noticed. We demonstrate that away from injured site, after a first injury a specific epithelial stem cell population gives rise to long term wound-memory progenitors residing in their own niche of origin. Notably these progenitors have not taken part in the first wound healing but become pre-activated through priming. This adaptation differs from classical features of trained immunity previously shown to be adopted by other epithelial stem cells. Our newly identified wound-distal memory cells display an intrinsic pre-activated state, maintained at chromatin and transcriptional level, leading to an enhanced wound repair ability that can be partially recapitulated through epigenetic perturbation even in absence of an injury. Importantly, the harmful consequences of wound repair, such as exacerbated tumorigenesis, occur within these primed cells and follow their spatial distribution. Overall, we show that sub-organ scale adaptation of an injury relies on spatially organized and memory-dedicated progenitors, characterized by a chromatin actionable cell state, that establishes an epigenetic field cancerization and predisposes to tumour onset.

Metabolic Reprogramming and Reliance in Human Skin Wound Healing

Project description:Impaired skin wound healing is a significant global health issue, especially among the elderly. Wound healing is a well-orchestrated process involving the sequential phases of inflammation, proliferation, and tissue remodeling. Although wound healing is a highly dynamic and energy-requiring process, the role of metabolism remains largely unexplored. By combining transcriptomics and metabolomics of human skin biopsy samples, we mapped the core bioenergetic and metabolic changes in normal acute as well as chronic wounds in elderly subjects. We found upregulation of glycolysis, the tricarboxylic acid cycle, glutaminolysis, and β-oxidation in the later stages of acute wound healing and in chronic wounds. To ascertain the role of these metabolic pathways on wound healing, we targeted each pathway in a wound healing assay as well as in a human skin explant model using metabolic inhibitors and stimulants. Enhancement or inhibition of glycolysis and, to a lesser extent, glutaminolysis had a far greater impact on wound healing than similar manipulations of oxidative phosphorylation and fatty acid β-oxidation. These findings increase the understanding of wound metabolism and identify glycolysis and glutaminolysis as potential targets for therapeutic intervention.

Defining stem cell dynamics and migration during wound healing in mouse skin epidermis

Project description:Wound healing is essential to repair the skin after injury. In the epidermis, distinct stem cells (SCs) populations contribute to wound healing. However, how SCs balance proliferation, differentiation and migration to repair a wound remains poorly understood. Here we show the cellular and molecular mechanisms that regulate wound healing in mouse tail epidermis. Using a combination of proliferation kinetics experiments and molecular profiling, we identify the gene signatures associated with proliferation, differentiation and migration in different regions surrounding the wound. Functional experiments show that SC proliferation, migration and differentiation can be uncoupled during wound healing. Lineage tracing and quantitative clonal analysis reveal that, following wounding, progenitors divide more rapidly, but conserve their homeostatic mode of division, leading to their rapid depletion whereas SCs become active, giving rise to new progenitors that expand and repair the wound. These results have important implications for tissue regeneration, acute and chronic wound disorders.
