NOTUM-MEDIATED WNT SILENCING DRIVES EXTRAVILLOUS TROPHOBLAST CELL LINEAGE DEVELOPMENT [Notum knockdown]

ABSTRACT: WNT activated signal transduction is a conserved regulator of morphogenesis of many organ systems, including the placenta. In human trophoblast stem (TS) cells, activation of canonical WNT signaling is a key to maintenance of the TS cell stem state. NOTUM, a negative regulator of canonical WNT signaling, was prominently expressed in first trimester EVT cells developing in situ and upregulated in EVT cells derived from human TS cells. Furthermore, NOTUM was required for human TS cell differentiation to EVT cells. Canonical WNT signaling is essential for maintaining human trophoblast cell stemness and prevention of human TS cell differentiation. Downregulation of canonical WNT signaling via the actions of NOTUM is required for EVT cell differentiation.

Design of a potent, selective and brain penetrant inhibitor of Wnt-deactivating enzyme Notum by optimization of a crystallographic fragment hit

Project description:Notum is a carboxylesterase that suppresses Wnt signaling through deacylation of an essential palmitoleate group on Wnt proteins. There is a growing understanding of the role Notum plays in human disease such as colorectal cancer and Alzheimer’s disease supporting the need to discover improved inhibitors, especially for use in models of neurodegeneration. Here, we describe the discovery and profile of 8I (ARUK3001185) as a potent, selective and brain pentrant inhibitor of Notum activity suitable for oral dosing in rodent models of disease. Crystallographic fragment screening of the Diamond-SGC Poised Library for binding to Notum, supported by a biochemical enzyme assay to rank inhibition activity, identifed a pair of outstanding hits. Fragment development of these delivered 8I that restored Wnt signaling in the presence of Notum in a cell-based reporter assay. Assessment in proteomic and pharmacology screens showed 8I to be selective against serine hydrolases, kinases and drug targets.

ASCL2 reciprocally controls key trophoblast lineage decisions during hemochorial placenta development

Project description:Invasive trophoblast cells are critical to spiral artery remodeling in hemochorial placentation. Insufficient trophoblast invasion and vascular remodeling can lead to pregnancy disorders including preeclampsia, preterm birth, and intrauterine growth restriction. Previous studies in the mouse identified achaete-scute homolog 2 (ASCL2) as essential to extraembryonic development. We hypothesized that ASCL2 is a critical and conserved regulator of invasive trophoblast lineage development. In contrast to the mouse, the rat possesses deep intrauterine trophoblast cell invasion and spiral artery remodeling similar to human placentation. In this report, we investigated invasive/extravillous trophoblast (EVT) cell differentiation using human trophoblast stem (TS) cells and a loss-of-function mutant Ascl2 rat model. ASCL2 transcripts are expressed in the EVT column and junctional zone, which represent tissue sources of invasive trophoblast progenitor cells within human and rat placentation sites, respectively. Differentiation of human TS cells into EVT cells resulted in significant upregulation of ASCL2 and several other transcripts indicative of EVT cell differentiation. Disruption of ASCL2 impaired EVT cell differentiation as indicated by cell morphology and transcript profiles. RNA sequencing analysis of ASCL2-deficient trophoblast cells identified both downregulation of EVT cell-associated transcripts and upregulation of syncytiotrophoblast-associated transcripts, indicative of dual activating and repressing functions. ASCL2 deficiency in the rat impacted placental morphogenesis resulting in junctional zone dysgenesis and failed intrauterine trophoblast cell invasion. ASCL2 acts as a critical and conserved regulator of invasive trophoblast cell lineage development and a species-specific modulator of the syncytiotrophoblast lineage.

Notum Regulates the Cusp and Root Patterns in Mouse Molar

Project description:Notumis a direct target of Wnt/β-catenin signaling and plays a crucial role as a Wnt inhibitor within a negative feedback loop. In the tooth, Notum is known to be expressed in odontoblasts, and severe dentin defects and irregular tooth roots have been reported in Notum-deficient mice. However, the precise expression pattern of Notum in early tooth development, and the role of Notum in crown and root patterns remain elusive. In the present study, we identified a novel Notum expression in primary enamel knot (EK), secondary EKs, and dental papilla during tooth development. Notum-deficient mice exhibited enlarged secondary EKs, resulting in broader cusp tips, altered cusp patterns, and reduced concavity in crown outline. These alterations in crown outline led to a reduction in cervical tongue length, thereby inducing root fusion in Notum-deficient mice. Overall, these results suggest that the size of secondary EK size, regulated by the Wnt/Notum negative feedback loop, has a significant impact on the patterns of crown and root during tooth morphogenesis.

Tcf ChIP_Seq analysis in cultured differentiated TSC cells at the presence of DMSO or CHIRGene expression in the placenta of WT and Ctnnb1 overexpression mice

Project description:Wnt signaling are essential for the maintenance and differentiation of stem/progenitor cells, including trophoblast stem cells during placental development. Hyper-activation of Wnt signaling has been shown to relate with human trophoblast diseases. However, litter is known about the impact and underlying mechanisms of excessive Wnt signaling during placental trophoblast development. In the present work, we found that Sfrp1,5 double mutant mouse exhibited disturbed trophoblast differentiation in the placental ectoplacental cone (EPC), where the precursors of secondary trophoblast giant cells (TGCs) and trophoblast cells in the spongiotrophoblast layer are located. Employing mouse models expressing a trunked β-catenin with exon 3 deletion globally and trophoblast-specifically, combining cultured trophoblast stem cells, we found that hyper-activation of canonical Wnt pathway exhausted the trophoblast precursor cells in the EPC, resulting in the overabundance of giant cells at the expense of spongiotrophoblast cells. Further examination uncovered that hyper-activation of canonical Wnt pathway disturbed trophoblast differentiation in the EPC via repressing Mash2 expression. Collectively, our findings demonstrate that appropriate canonical Wnt-β-catenin pathway is essential for EPC trophoblast differentiation during placental development. Our work also has high clinical relevance, since abnormal Wnt signaling are often associated with trophoblast-related diseases.

Global Epigenome and Transcriptome Maps of Human Trophoblast Cell Lineage Development [RNA-Seq II]

Project description:The extravillous trophoblast (EVT) cell lineage is a key feature of placentation and critical for spiralartery remodeling and successful pregnancy. Our knowledge of transcriptional regulation driving EVT cell development is limited. Here, we mapped the transcriptome and epigenome landscape as well as chromatin interactions of human trophoblast stem (TS) cells and their transition into the differentiated EVT cell lineage. We identified that chromatin accessibility in intergenic regions was more extensive in EVT cells than in TS cells in the stem state, which is indicative of increased enhancer-driven gene regulation. Using reference epigenome annotation, we noted that 18% of the chromatin landscape in EVT cells was uncharted. We linked regulatory regions to their cognate target genes and characterized the three-dimensional organization of the TS cell functional genome by Hi-C. Integrational analysis of chromatin accessibility, long-range chromatin interactions, transcriptomic, and transcription factor binding motif enrichment enabled identification of transcription factors and regulatory mechanisms associated with EVT cell lineage development. Subsequent analyses elucidated functional roles forTFAP2C,EPAS1,SNAI1, andDLX6in the regulation of EVT cell lineage development.EPAS1was identified as an upstream regulator of EVT cell transcription factors, includingSNAI1andDLX6, and was found to be upregulated in idiopathic recurrent pregnancy loss. Collectively, we have revealed activation of a dynamic regulatory network that provides a framework for understanding EVT cell specification in trophoblast cell lineage development and human placentation.
