Transcript shortening through alternative polyadenylation promotes gene expression during fracture healing

ABSTRACT: Maturation of the 3¢ end of almost all eukaryotic messenger RNAs (mRNAs) requires cleavage and polyadenylation. Most mammalian mRNAs are polyadenylated at different sites within the last exon, generating alternative polyadenylation (APA) isoforms that have the same coding region but distinct 3¢ untranslated regions (UTRs). The 3¢UTR contains motifs that regulate mRNA metabolism; thus, changing the 3¢UTR length via APA can significantly impact gene expression. Endochondral ossification is a central process in bone healing, and the impact of APA on gene expression during this process is unknown. Here, we report widespread utilization of APA that impacts multiple pathways with established roles in bone healing. Importantly, progression of endochondral ossification is typified by global 3¢UTR shortening that is coupled with an increased abundance of shortened transcripts as compared to all other transcripts, underscoring the role of APA in promoting gene expression during endochondral bone formation. Our mechanistic studies of genes that undergo APA in the fracture callus uncover an intricate regulatory network in which APA boosts the expression of collagen, type I, alpha 1 (Col1a1) and Col1a2 genes, which encode the 2 subunits of the abundantly expressed protein collagen 1. APA does so via shortening the 3¢UTRs of Col1a1 and Col1a2 mRNAs, which removes the binding sites of miR-29a-3p that otherwise potently triggered the degradation of both transcripts. Taken together, our study takes the lead in characterizing crucial roles of APA in tailoring the 3¢UTR landscape and regulating gene expression during fracture healing.

Alternative cleavage and polyadenylation in spermatogenesis coordinates chromatin regulation and post-transcriptional control

Project description:Most mammalian genes display alternative cleavage and polyadenylation (APA). Previous studies have indicated preferential expression of APA isoforms with short 3âUTRs in testes. Here we show widespread shortening of 3âUTR by APA during the first wave of spermatogenesis in mouse, with 3âUTRs being the shortest in spermatids. Shortening of 3âUTR eliminates destabilizing elements, such as U-rich elements and transposable elements, which appear to be highly potent for transcript elimination during spermatogenesis. We additionally found widespread regulation of APA in introns and global activation of upstream antisense transcripts during spermatogenesis. Interestingly, genes that display 3âUTR shortening tend to have higher levels of H3K4me3, consistent with the open chromatin feature previously observed in spermatids. Since genes with 3âUTR shortening tend to have functions important for further sperm development after spermatids, when transcription is halted, this result indicates that expression of short, stable mRNAs may serve the purpose of mRNA storage for later translation. Thus, APA in spermatogenesis connects regulation of chromatin status with post-transcriptional control, and impacts sperm maturation. 3'READS of 1 week to 6 week of testis development

Alternative cleavage and polyadenylation in spermatogenesis coordinates chromatin regulation and post-transcriptional control

Project description:Most mammalian genes display alternative cleavage and polyadenylation (APA). Previous studies have indicated preferential expression of APA isoforms with short 3’UTRs in testes. Here we show widespread shortening of 3’UTR by APA during the first wave of spermatogenesis in mouse, with 3’UTRs being the shortest in spermatids. Shortening of 3’UTR eliminates destabilizing elements, such as U-rich elements and transposable elements, which appear to be highly potent for transcript elimination during spermatogenesis. We additionally found widespread regulation of APA in introns and global activation of upstream antisense transcripts during spermatogenesis. Interestingly, genes that display 3’UTR shortening tend to have higher levels of H3K4me3, consistent with the open chromatin feature previously observed in spermatids.

Fracture healing in osteoporotic mice

Project description:Genome-wide comparative gene expression analysis of callus tissue of osteoporotic mice (Col1a1-Krm2 and Lrp5-/-) and wild-type were performed to identify candidate genes that might be responsible for the impaired fracture healing observed in Col1a1-Krm2 and Lrp5-/- mice. To investigate bone healing in osteoporosis, we performed fracture healing studies in wild-type mice (C57BL/6 genetic background) and the low bone mass strains Col1a1-Krm2 and Lrp5-/- (Schulze et al., 2010; Kato et al., 2002). Osteotomy was set in femora of female mice and stabilized by a semi-rigid fixator to allow fast bone healing (RM-CM-6ntgen et al., 2010). 21 days post surgery we analyzed the fracture calli by biochemical/histological methods, as well as micro-computed tomography, and observed impaired fracture healing in Col1a1-Krm2 and Lrp5-/- mice in comparison to wild-type. To identify genes that may be responsible for the impaired healing in osteoporotic mice, we performed microarray analysis of three independent callus samples of each genotype. The callus tissue was taken 10 days after surgery, because extensive bone formation took place at this point.

Differentiation of syncytialized trophoblasts elicits widespread 3’UTR shortening that accompanies increased cellular function in protein secretion

Project description:Most eukaryotic genes express alternative polyadenylation (APA) isoforms with different 3’UTR sizes. The APA profile varies across tissue types and under different growth and differentiation conditions. Here we report that, unlike many other cell differentiation lineages, differentiation of syncytiotrophoblasts (SCTs) elicits widespread 3’UTR shortening, as shown in multiple in vitro trophoblast differentiation models as well as in single placental cells at different stages of pregnancy. We show that the 3’UTR shortening is unrelated to cell proliferation, a feature previously associated with 3’UTR size control, but rather accompanies increased cell function in protein secretion. In addition, 3’UTR shortening correlates with increased transcript abundance and is coupled with enhanced intronic APA site usage, suggesting activation of 3’ end processing in SCT differentiation. Together, our data indicate that SCTs utilize APA to express transcripts with short 3’UTRs, which may enhance hormone production and secretion, contributing to their functions in pregnancy.

Cellular stress alters 3’UTR landscape through alternative polyadenylation and isoform-specific degradation

Project description:Most eukaryotic genes express alternative polyadenylation (APA) isoforms with different lengths of 3’ untranslated region (3’UTR). Here we show arsenic stress elicits global shortening of 3’UTRs through two mechanisms. First, stress leads to immediate shortening of 3’UTR due to preferential usage of proximal cleavage and polyadenylation sites (PASs), as revealed by 3’ end sequencing of newly made RNAs that are metabolically labeled with 4-thiouridine. Second, long 3’UTR isoforms are more rapidly degraded during recovery from stress as compared to short 3’UTR isoforms, further shortening 3’UTR lengths in the cell. Using ribonucleoprotein immunoprecipitation coupled with 3’ end sequencing (3’READS+RIP), we show that the RNA-binding protein T cell-restricted intracellular antigen-1 (Tia1) preferentially interacts with long 3’UTR isoforms via U-rich elements in alternative 3’UTR sequences, and the interaction correlates with stress granule (SG) association during stress and with mRNA decay during recovery from stress, indicating SG-mediated RNA clearance mechanism post stress. Importantly, genes whose 3’UTRs are shortened by APA during stress can evade stress-induced 3’UTR size-based mRNA degradation, leading to higher transcript abundance post stress. Moreover, proliferating and differentiated cells display different extents of 3’UTR shortening after stress, indicating cell type-specific of impact of stress on the 3’UTR landscape. Together, our data indicate that 3’UTR length plays important roles in gene expression in stressed cells, and APA functions as an adaptive stress response mechanism to preserve mRNAs.

Identification of Postn + periosteal stem cells that orchestrate bone regeneration

Project description:Bone fracture healing requires skeletal stem cells (SSCs), which facilitate intramembranous ossification and endochondral ossification in long bone fractures. Although the periosteum is necessary for bone homeostasis and regeneration, the in vivo origin and regulatory mechanisms of periosteal SSCs (P-SSCs) remain unclear. Here, we identified Postn+ P-SSCs at the cambium layer of the periosteum that actively orchestrate regeneration in response to bone injury. Notably, the Postn+ P-SSCs that arise during bicortical fractures are likely derived from Gli1+ P-SSCs. In addition, Postn+ cell ablation compromises cortical bone homeostasis and bone regeneration. The IGF signal is indispensable in the regulatory effect of Postn+ P-SSCs on bicortical fractures since the genetic deletion of Igf1r in Postn+ cells dampens bone fracture healing. Taken together, adult Postn+ cells are region-specific P-SSCs that contribute to bone homeostasis and regeneration and are partially dependent upon IGF signaling.

β-NGF promotes cartilage to bone conversion, accelerating endochondral fracture repair

Project description:During endochondral fracture repair, a myriad of biochemical and phenotypic changes occur at the chondro-osseuous junction that regulate cartilage to bone conversion. Osteogenic and angiogenic factors have long been studied for accelerating fracture repair. In our concise study, we focused on the neurotrophic factor nerve growth factor (NGF) and its receptor tropomyosin receptor kinase A (TRKA) as understudied therapeutic targets for accelerating endochondral fracture repair. We first characterized endogenous expression of NGF and TRKA during endochondral repair of tibial fractures. We then analyzed gene expression data from β-NGF stimulated hypertrophic cartilage and observed a promotion in endochondral ossification associated markers. Additional gene ontology analyses revealed promotion of genes associated with Wnt activation, PDGF binding, and integrin binding. Subsequent histological analyses of in vivo samples confirmed Wnt activation following local β-NGF injections via reporter mice. Finally, we tested the therapeutic efficacy of local β-NGF injections in mice, which resulted in a decrease of cartilage and increase of bone volume. Moreover, the newly formed bone contained higher trabecular number, connective density, and bone mineral density. Collectively, we demonstrate the ability for β-NGF to promote endochondral fracture repair in a murine model and uncover mechanisms that will serve to further understand the molecular switches that occur during endochondral ossification.
