Direct neuronal reprogramming of mouse astrocytes is associated with multiscale epigenome remodeling and requires Yy1

ABSTRACT: Direct neuronal reprogramming is a promising approach to regenerate neurons from local glial cells. However, mechanisms of epigenome remodeling and co-factors facilitating this process are unclear. Here, we combine single-cell multiomics with genome-wide profiling of 3D nuclear architecture and DNA methylation in mouse astrocyte-to-neuron reprogramming mediated by Neurogenin2 (Ngn2) and its phosphorylation-resistant form (PmutNgn2), respectively. We show that Ngn2 drives multilayered chromatin remodelling at dynamic enhancer-gene interaction sites. PmutNgn2 leads to higher reprogramming efficiency and enhances epigenetic remodeling associated with neuronal maturation. However, the differences in binding sites or downstream gene activation cannot fully explain this effect. Instead, we identify Yy1, a transcriptional co-factor, recruited by direct interaction with Ngn2 to its target sites. Upon deletion of Yy1, activation of neuronal enhancers, genes, and ultimately reprogramming are impaired without affecting Ngn2 binding. Thus, our work highlights the key role of interactors of proneural factors in direct neuronal reprogramming.

Global DNA methylation remodeling during direct reprogramming from fibroblast to neuron [MethylC-seq]

Project description:Direct reprogramming from fibroblasts to neurons induces widespread cellular and transcriptional reconfigurations. In this study, we characterized global epigenomic changes during direct reprogramming using whole-genome base-resolution DNA methylome (mC) sequencing. We found that the pioneer transcription factor Ascl1 alone is sufficient for inducing robust non-CG methylation (mCH) accumulation in reprogrammed cells, but co-expression of Brn2 and Mytl1 was required to establish a global mCH pattern reminiscent of mature cortical neurons. Ascl1 alone induced strong promoter CG methylation (mCG) of fibroblast specific genes, while BAM overexpression additionally targets a competing myogenic program and directs a more faithful conversion to neuronal cells. Ascl1 induces local demethylation at its binding sites. Surprisingly, co-expression with Brn2 and Mytl1 inhibited the ability of Ascl1 to induce demethylation, suggesting a contextual regulation of transcription factor - epigenome interaction. Finally, we found that de novo methylation by DNMT3A is required for efficient neuronal reprogramming.

Ngn2 induces diverse neuronal lineages from human pluripotency

Project description:Human neurons engineered from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) through Neurogenin 2 (Ngn2) overexpression are widely used to study neuronal differentiation mechanisms and to model neurological diseases. However, the differentiation paths and heterogeneity of emerged neurons have not been fully explored. Here we used single-cell transcriptomics to dissect the cell states that emerge during Ngn2 overexpression across a time course from pluripotency to neuron functional maturation. We find a substantial molecular heterogeneity in the neuron types generated, with at least two populations that express genes associated with neurons of the peripheral nervous system. Neuron heterogeneity is observed across multiple iPSC clones and lines from different individuals. We find that neuron fate acquisition is sensitive to Ngn2 expression level and the duration of Ngn2 forced expression. Our data reveals that Ngn2 dosage can regulate neuron fate acquisition, and that Ngn2-iN heterogeneity can confound results that are sensitive to neuron type.

Cross-lineage Potential of Ascl1 Uncovered by Comparing Diverse Reprogramming Regulatomes [MA Timepoint RNA-seq]

Project description:Direct reprogramming has revolutionized the fields of stem cell biology and regenerative medicine. Direct reprogramming makes it possible to interconvert somatic cell fates without intermediary pluripotency. Although studies have identified different transcription factor (TF) cocktails that can reprogram fibroblasts into different cell types, the common mechanisms governing how reprogramming cells undergo transcriptome and epigenome remodeling (i.e. regulatome remodeling) have not been investigated. Here, by characterizing early changes in the regulatome of three different types of direct reprogramming – induced neurons, induced hepatocytes, and induce cardiomyocytes – we identified two non-cocktail TFs, Tead4 and Atf7, that co-operate with reprogramming TFs to regulate target cell-type specific gene expression. Additionally, by identifying shared pro-cardiac features of iN and iCM reprogramming, we demonstrate Ascl1’s cross-lineage potential to induce highly efficient iCM reprogramming in a two-factor cocktail with Mef2c (A+M). Single-cell multi-omics showed that A+M reprogramming terminates in a more mature iCM phenotype than MGT. Finally, through ChIP-seq and RNA-seq, we find that Mef2c drives the shift in Ascl1 binding away from neuronal genes towards cardiac gene, guiding their co-operative epigenetic and transcription activities. These findings demonstrate the existence of common regulators of different direct reprogramming process and argue against the premise that TFs are lineage specific – the basic premise used to develop direct reprogramming approaches.
