Project description:Salivary glands that produce and secret saliva, which is essential for lubrication, digestion, immunity, and oral homeostasis, consist of diverse cells. The long-term maintenance of diverse salivary gland cells in organoids remains problematic. Here, we established long-term murine salivary gland organoids from 3 major salivary glands, including parotid gland (PG), submandibular gland (SMG), and sublingual gland (SLG). Murine salivary gland organoids expressed gland-specific genes and proteins of acinar, myoepithelial, and duct cells. Organoids were maintained in growth media (named GEM) and further underwent differentiation in differentiation media (named DAM). Our study will provide an experimental platform for the exploration of mechanisms involvled in tissue regeneration, development, or several salivary gland diseases.

Project description:The mechanisms that prevent regeneration of irradiated (IR) salivary glands remain elusive. Bulk RNAseq of IR versus non-IR human salivary glands showed that neurotrophin signaling is highly disrupted post-radiation. Moreover, neurotrophin receptors (NTRs) are significantly upregulated in myoepithelial cells (MECs) post-IR, and scRNAseq revealed that MECs are a main source of neurotrophin ligands. Using two ex vivo models, we show that nerve growth factor (NGF) is essential for MEC differentiation during development, whereas upregulation of NTRs in adult MECs is associated with differentiation defects. The latter morphological abnormalities were confirmed in MECs of human IR glands. As MECs are required for proper acinar cell contraction and secretion, we propose that MEC-specific upregulation of NTRs post-IR disrupts MEC differentiation and potentially hinders the ability of the gland to regenerate.

Project description:Salivary glands that produce and secret saliva, which is essential for lubrication, digestion, immunity, and oral homeostasis, consist of diverse cells. Maintenance of diverse salivary gland cells in organoids remains problematic. Here, we established human salivary gland organoids, which is composed of multiple cellular subsets, from 3 major salivary glands, including parotid gland (PG), submandibular gland (SMG), and sublingual gland (SLG). Human salivary gland organoids expressed gland-specific genes and proteins of acinar, myoepithelial, and duct cells. Organoids were maintained in growth media (named GEM) and further underwent differentiation in differentiation media (named DAM).

Project description:Although mesenchyme is essential for inducing the epithelium of ectodermal organs, its precise role in organ-specific epithelial fate determination remains poorly understood. To elucidate roles of tissue interactions in cellular differentiation, we performed single cell RNA sequencing and imaging analyses of recombined tissues in which embryonic mouse salivary gland mesenchyme and epithelium were switched ex vivo. We found partial induction of molecules that define gland-specific acinar and myoepithelial cells in recombined salivary epithelium. Parotid epithelium (serous gland) recombined with submandibular mesenchyme (mixed serous-mucous, but predominantly mucous gland) began to express mucous acinar genes not intrinsic to the parotid gland. While myoepithelial cells do not normally line parotid acini, newly induced myoepithelial cells densely populated recombined parotid acini. However, mucous acinar and myoepithelial markers continued to be expressed in submandibular epithelial cells recombined with parotid mesenchyme. Consequently, some epithelial cells appeared to be plastic, such that their fate could still be altered in response to mesenchymal signaling, whereas other epithelial cells appeared to be already committed to a specific fate. We also discovered evidence for bidirectional induction: transcriptional changes were observed not only in the epithelium but also in the mesenchyme after heterotypic tissue recombination. For example, parotid epithelium induced the expression of muscle-related genes in submandibular fibroblasts that began to mimic parotid fibroblast gene expression. These studies provide the first comprehensive unbiased molecular characterization of tissue recombination approaches exploring the regulation of cell fate.

Project description:Chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) targets include the oral mucosa and salivary glands after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). Without incisional biopsy, no diagnostic test exists to confirm oral cGVHD. Consequently, therapy is often withheld until severe manifestations develop. This proteomic study examined saliva and human salivary gland for a biomarker profile at first onset of oral cGVHD prior to initiation of topical steroid therapy. Whole saliva collected at onset of biopsy-proven oral GVHD was assessed using liquid chromatography coupled tandem mass spectrometry with identification of 569 proteins, of which 77 significantly changed in abundance. ZG16B, a secretory lectin protein, was reduced 2-fold in oral cGVHD saliva (p < 0.05), and significantly decreased in salivary gland secretory cells affected by cGVHD. Single-cell RNAseq analysis of healthy MSG localized ZG16B expression to two discreet acinar cell populations. Reduced expression of ZG16B may indicate specific cGVHD activity, general salivary gland dysfunction.

Project description:Myoepithelial and luminal cells synergistically expand in the mammary gland during pregnancy, and this process is precisely governed by hormone-related signaling pathways. The BMP signaling pathway is now known to play crucial roles in all organ systems. However, the functions of BMP signaling in the mammary gland remain unclear. Here, we found that Bmpr1a is upregulated by hormone-induced Sp1 at pregnancy. Using a doxycycline (Dox)-inducible Bmpr1a conditional knockout mouse model, we demonstrated that loss of Bmpr1a results in compromised myoepithelial integrity, reduced mammary stem cells and precocious alveolar differentiation during pregnancy. Mechanistically, Bmpr1a regulates the expression of p63 and Slug, two key regulators of myoepithelial maintenance, through pSmad1/5-Smad4 complexes, and consequently activate P-cadherin during pregnancy. Collectively, these findings identify a novel role of BMP signaling in maintaining the identity of myoepithelial cells and suppressing precocious alveolar formation.

Project description:Purpose: Use scRNA Seq to find B10stromal subpopulations and define how these subpopulations contribute to salivary gland proacinar differentiation. Method: scRNA Seq on stromal enriched cells from E16 salivary glands. Model closely related cells using PCA and UMAP regressions. Find genes that broadly and specifically define cell subpopulations. Results: The epithelium and stromal fibroblasts have multiple subpopulations. Stromal cells can be subdivided by their expression of Pdgfra, Pdgfrb, Thy1, Wnt2, and Acta2. Conclusions: Pdgfra expressing stroma specifically use BMP7 to promote proacinar differentiation.
