Synergistic activation of RARb and RARg-driven programs restores cell-types specialization during stem cell differentiation

ABSTRACT: How cells respond to different external cues to develop along defined cell lineages composing complex tissues is a major question in systems biology. In this study, we studied the role of synthetic agonists targeting specific Retinoic acid receptors (RARs) on activating major gene regulatory wires driving cell specialization during nervous tissue formation issued from P19 stem cells. Specifically, we have revealed that the synergistic activation of the RAR and RAR nuclear receptors by their cognate ligands (BMS641 or BMS961) induce neuronal maturation, inlcuding specialized neuronal subtypes as well as to astrocytes and oligodendrocyte precursors. With the help of Rar-null mutant lines, combined with the use of RAR-specific agonists, global transcriptome mapping and an in-silico modeling of transcription regulatory signalling propagation, we have highlighted major gene programs essential for optimal neuronal cell specialization. Overall, this study provides a systems biology view of the gene programs behind the previously observed redundancy between RAR receptors, paving the way for their potential use for directing cell specialization during nervous tissue formation.

Structural basis for DNA recognition and allosteric control of the Retinoic Acid Receptors RAR-RXR

Project description:Retinoic Acid Receptors (RARs) as a functional heterodimer with Retinoid X Receptors (RXRs), bind a diverse series of RA-response elements (RAREs) in regulated genes. Among them, the non-canonical DR0 elements are bound by RXR-RAR with comparable affinities to DR5 elements but DR0 elements do not act transcriptionally as independent RAREs. In this work, we present structural insight for the recognition of DR5 and DR0 elements by RXR-RAR heterodimer using x-ray crystallography, small angle x-ray scattering, and hydrogen/deuterium exchange coupled to mass spectrometry. We solved the crystal structure of RXR-RAR DNA-binding domain in complex with the Rarb2 DR5 and RXR DNA-binding domain in complex with Hoxb13 DR0. While cooperative binding was observed on DR5, on DR0 the two molecules bound non-cooperatively on opposite sides of the DNA. In addition, our data unveil the structural organization and dynamics of the multi-domain RXR-RAR DNA complexes providing evidence for DNA-dependent allosteric communication between domains. Differential binding mode between DR0 and DR5 were observed leading to differences in the conformation and structural dynamics of the multi-domain RXR-RAR DNA complex. These results reveal that the topological organization of the RAR binding element confer regulatory information by modulating the overall topology and structural dynamics of the RXR-RAR heterodimers.

Transcript levels in CCE WT and RARgamma knockout murine embryonic stem cells treated with either all-trans retinoic acid (8 and 24 hr) or with vehicle control

Project description:Retinoic acid receptors (RARs) ?, ?, and ? heterodimerize with Retinoid X receptors (RXR) ?, ?, and ? and bind the cis-acting response elements known as RAREs to execute the biological functions of retinoic acid during mammalian development. RAR? mediates the anti-proliferative and apoptotic effects of retinoids in certain tissues and cancer cells, such as melanoma and neuroblastoma cells. Furthermore, ablation of RAR? enhanced the tumor incidence of Ras transformed keratinocytes and was associated with resistance to retinoid mediated growth arrest and apoptosis. We used microarray analysis to identify genes, which upon 8 or 24 hr of treatment with all-trans retinoic acid display differential expression in RAR? knockout (RAR?KO) murine embryonic stem cells relative to CCE WT cells. We demonstrate that following RA treatment the majority of inducible transcripts are present at lower levels in RAR?KO ES cells compared to WT ES cells. Murine embryonic stem cells (WT and RAR?KO) were treated with either all-trans retinoic acid (up to 24 hr) or with vehicle control (EtOH).

Cistrome profiles of Retinoids x Receptor alpha (RXR?) , Retinoic Acid Receptor alpha (RAR?), and Retinoic Acid Receptor beta (RAR?) in livers of mice treated by control and retionic acid-containing diet

Project description:Comparison between ChIP-Seq data of RAR? and RAR?, between RAR and RXR, as well as between control and retinoic acid-treatment for each investigated nuclear receptors. Mouse were treated by control diet and RA-diet for 1 days. After treatment, livers were used to do ChIP using antibodies of RXR?, RAR?, and RAR?. An aliquote of total chromatin without pull-down process by any antibodies was used as input control. A single-end read of 35bp sequencing was performed on each of ChIPed DNA and input. Sequencing data of RAR? and RAR? were compared to each other. In addtional, each of RAR? and RAR? data were compared with RXR? data. For each nuclear receptor, ChIP-Seq data prior or after RA-treatment were also compared with each other.

Transcriptome profiling of genes regulated by RXR and its partners in monocyte-derived dendritic cells

Project description:CD14+ human monocytes differentiating into DCs in the presence of IL4 and GM-CSF were treated with agonists for RXR and its partners or vehicle 18 hours after plating (experiment with RXR and permissive partners, donor 1-3) or 14 hours after plating (experiment with nonpermissive partners, donor 4-6). Cells were harvested 12 hours thereafter. Experiments were performed in biological triplicates representing samples from three different donors. In this study all probable RXR-signaling pathways induced by agonists for RXR, LXRs, PPARs, RAR and VDR were identified in differentiating human monocyte-derived dendritic cells. In the experiments, differentiating dendritic cells were treated for 12 hours with one of the following compounds (ligands): vehicle (DMS:EtOH 1:1) LG268 (RXR agonist) 9-cis retinoic acid (9cisRA, agonist of RAR and RXR) GW3965 (LXRalpha/beta panagonist) rosiglitazone (RSG, PPARgamma agonist) GW1516 (PPARdelta agonist) AM580 (RARalpha agonist) 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (VDR agonist)

Dissecting the retinoid-induced differentiation of F9 embryonal stem cells by integrative genomics [mRNA profiling]

Project description:Retinoic acid (RA) triggers physiological processes by activating heterodimeric transcription factors comprising retinoic acid (RARa,b,g) and retinoid X (RXRa,b,g) receptors. How a single signal induces highly complex temporally controlled networks that ultimately orchestrate physiological processes is unclear. Using an RA-inducible differentiation model we defined the temporal changes in the genome-wide binding patterns of RARg and RXRa and correlated them with transcription regulation. Unexpectedly, both receptors displayed a highly dynamic binding, with different RXRa heterodimers targeting identical loci. Comparison of RARg and RXRa co-binding at RA-regulated genes identified putative RXRa-RARg target genes that were validated with subtype-selective agonists. Gene regulatory decisions during differentiation were inferred from transcription factor target gene information and temporal gene expression. This analysis revealed 6 distinct co-expression paths of which RXRa-RARg is associated with transcription activation, while Sox2 and Egr1 were predicted to regulate repression. Finally, RXRa-RARg regulatory networks were reconstructed through integration of functional co-citations. Our analysis provides a dynamic view of RA signalling during cell differentiation, reveals RA heterodimer dynamics and promiscuity, and predicts decisions that diversify the RA signal into distinct gene-regulatory programs. Transcriptional activity in F9 cells treated with different retinoic acid receptor (RAR) agonists; like all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA), BMS961 (RARg-specific), BMS753 (RARa-specific) or BMS641(RARb-specific); has been evaluated at different time-points (2, 6, 24, 48h) and compared with that found under Ethanol-vehicle treatment conditions (48h treatment).

Fight-or-flight responses require augmentation of Ca2+ influx via Rad phosphorylation

Project description:Fight-or-flight responses involve β-adrenergic-induced increases in heart rate and contractile force. Despite decades of investigations, predominantly focusing on ryanodine receptor and phospholamban phosphorylation, the molecular mechanisms underlying the sympathetic nervous system control of cardiac contractility remain controversial and incompletely elucidated. Here, we identify the calcium-channel inhibitor Rad as a critical component. In cardiomyocytes isolated from knock-in mice expressing Rad with alanine-substitutions of the four PKA-phosphorylated serine residues (4SA-Rad), calcium currents cannot be increased by adrenergic agonists or phosphatase inhibitor. In these mice, basal cardiac contractility, exercise capacity and heart rate are reduced, and the augmentation of contractile force by adrenergic agonists is severely blunted. Expression of mutant calcium-channel β-subunits that cannot bind Rad is sufficient to restore calcium influx and cardiac contractility in 4SA-Rad mice to levels induced by adrenergic agonists in wild-type mice, revealing a potential therapeutic approach to enhance cardiac contractility while bypassing stimulation of adrenergic receptors.

Cooperative interaction between retinoic acid receptor-alpha and estrogen receptor in breast cancer.

Project description:Retinoic acid receptor-alpha (RAR alpha) is a known estrogen target gene in breast cancer cells. The consequence of RAR alpha induction by estrogen was previously unknown. We now show that RAR alpha is required for efficient estrogen receptor-alpha (ER)-mediated transcription and cell proliferation. RAR alpha can interact with ER-binding sites, but this occurs in an ER-dependent manner, providing a novel role for RAR alpha that is independent of its classic role. We show, on a genome-wide scale, that RAR alpha and ER can co-occupy regulatory regions together within the chromatin. This transcriptionally active co-occupancy and dependency occurs when exposed to the predominant breast cancer hormone, estrogen--an interaction that is promoted by the estrogen-ER induction of RAR alpha. These findings implicate RAR alpha as an essential component of the ER complex, potentially by maintaining ER-cofactor interactions, and suggest that different nuclear receptors can cooperate for effective transcriptional activity in breast cancer cells.

Identification of downstream effectors of retinoic acid specifying the zebrafish pancreas by integrative genomics [RNA-seq]

Project description:Retinoic acid (RA) is a key signal for the specification of the pancreas. Still, the gene regulatory cascade triggered by RA in the endoderm remains poorly characterized. In this study, we investigated this regulatory network in zebrafish by combining RNA-seq, RAR ChIP-seq and ATAC-seq assays. By analysing the effect of RA and of the RA receptor (RAR) antagonist BMS439 on the transcriptome and on the chromatin accessibility of endodermal cells, we identified a large set of genes and regulatory regions regulated by RA signalling. RAR ChIP-seq further defined the direct RAR target genes including the known hox genes as well as several pancreatic regulators like mnx1, insm1b, hnf1ba and gata6. Comparison of our zebrafish data with available murine RAR ChIP-seq data highlighted conserved direct target genes and revealed that some RAR sites are under strong evolutionary constraints. Among them, a novel highly conserved RAR-induced enhancer was identified downstream of the HoxB locus and driving expression in the nervous system and in the gut in a RA-dependant manner. Finally, ATAC-seq data unveiled the role of the RAR-direct targets Hnf1ba and Gata6 in opening chromatin at many regulatory loci upon RA treatment.
