Defining key transcriptional regulators of extravillous trophoblast differentiation [RNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: During early human pregnancy, extravillous trophoblasts (EVT) play a central role in placental anchorage and blood vessel remodeling. Despite the essential roles in pregnancy, key factors and mechanisms underlying EVT differentiation remain largely unknown. Here, we defined key transcription factors (TFs) by monitoring the dynamics of transcriptome and enhancer usage during EVT differentiation. We confirmed the requirements of the defined TFs and identified their action mechanisms.

Transcriptional characterization of primary human HLA-G+ extravillous trophoblasts (EVT) and Villous trophoblasts (VT)

Project description:Seven patient paired primary human HLA-G+ extravillous trophoblasts (EVT) and Villous trophoblasts (VT) obtained from 1st trimester (7-9 weeks) villous tissue were obtained. RNA was isolated directly after isolation and purification using FACS sort for CD45-HLA-G+ (EVT) and CD45-HLA-G-EGFR1+ (VT) fractions. Expression profiles were compared to two samples of the choriocarcinoma cell line JEG-3 and four samples of decidual stromal cells (DSC) at passage 2 after cell culture.

Gene expression profiles of trophoblast cell lines

Project description:Invasive extravillous trophoblasts (EVTs) of the human placenta are critically involved in successful pregnancy outcome since they remodel the uterine spiral arteries to increase blood flow and oxygen delivery to the placenta and the developing fetus. To gain more insights into their biological role different primary cell culture models are commonly utilised. However, access to early placental tissue may be limited and primary trophoblasts rapidly cease proliferation in vitro impairing genetic manipulation. Hence, trophoblastic cell lines have been widely used as surrogates to study EVT function. Although the cell lines share some molecular marker expression with their primary counterpart, it is unknown to what extent they recapture the invasive phenotype of EVT. Therefore, we here report the first thorough GeneChip analyses of SGHPL-5, HTR-8/SVneo, BeWo, JEG-3 and the novel ACH-3P trophoblast cells in comparison to previously analysed primary villous cytrophoblasts and extravillous trophoblasts. To identify EVT-specific gene expression signatures in trophoblast cell lines, we calcuted differentially expressed genes between pre-defined groups based on the distinct origins of the five trophoblast cell lines under investigation. Comparison 1 comprised EVT, HTR-8/Svneo and SGHPL-5 vs choriocarcinoma cells (ACH-3P, BeWo, JEG-3). Comparison 2 comprised EVT, ACH-3P, BeWo, JEG-3 vs extravillous trophoblast cell lines (HTR-8/SVneo, SGHPL-5).

Human uterine Natural Killer cells regulate differentiation of extravillous trophoblast early in pregnancy - scRNA-seq data

Project description:We used trophoblast organoids differentiating to extravillous trophoblast (EVT) to study the effects of key cytokines secreted by uterine Natural Killer (uNK) cells on EVT behaviour. Specifically, we exposed the organoids to four uNK-derived cytokines (CSF1, CSF2, XCL1, CCL5) and collected cells at different time points along the EVT differentiation pathway for scRNA-seq. We observe enhanced EVT differentiation in cytokine-treated organoids demonstrated by the increased proportion of late EVT subtypes and regulation of related pathways such as epithelial-mesenchymal transition. Moreover, uNK cytokines affect other processes important during early pregnancy including dampening of inflammatory and adaptive immune responses, regulation of blood flow, and placental access to nutrients.

Extravillous trophoblast and endothelial cell crosstalk mediates leukocyte infiltration to the early remodelling decidual spiral arteriole wall

Project description:Decidual spiral arteriole (SpA) remodelling is essential to ensure optimal uteroplacental blood flow during human pregnancy. Decidual uterine natural killer cells and macrophages infiltrate the SpA and are proposed to initiate remodelling before colonisation by extravillous trophoblasts. Microarrays were used to measure the effect of extravillous trophoblasts conditioned medium on the transcriptome of human uterine microvascular endothelial cells.

Human uterine Natural Killer cells regulate differentiation of extravillous trophoblast early in pregnancy - bulk RNA-seq data

Project description:An allorecognition system depending on interactions between uterine Natural Killer (uNK) cells and placental extravillous trophoblast (EVT) during early pregnancy influences reproductive outcomes in humans. Our previous immunogenetic studies show that particular combinations of maternal Killer Immunoglobulin-like Receptors (KIR) in uNK cells with fetal HLA-C variants on EVT are associated with disorders of pregnancy, especially pre-eclampsia. To identify responses stimulated in uNK cells specifically when activating KIR (KIR2DS1) binds to C2+HLA-C, a combination protective against pre-eclampsia, we modelled KIR-HLA interactions by co-culturing uNK cells with the 721.221 HLA-null cell line transfected to express either C1+ or C2+HLA-C molecules, followed by transcriptome profiling by RNA sequencing. We detect the secretion of key cytokines by uNK cells under the protective combination between KIR2DS1 and C2+HLA-C.

Zika virus impacts extracellular vesicle composition and cellular gene expression in macaque early gestation trophoblasts

Project description:Zika virus (ZIKV) infection at the maternal-placental interface is associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes including fetal demise and pregnancy loss. To determine how infection impacts placental trophoblasts, we utilized rhesus macaque trophoblast stem cells (TSC) that can be differentiated into early gestation syncytiotrophoblasts (ST) and extravillous trophoblasts (EVT). TSCs and STs, but not EVTs, were highly permissive to productive infection with ZIKV strain DAK AR 41524. The impact of ZIKV on the cellular transcriptome showed that infection of TSCs and STs increased expression of immune related genes, including those involved in type I and type III interferon responses. ZIKV exposure altered extracellular vesicle (EV) protein, mRNA, and miRNA cargo, regardless of productive infection. These findings suggest that early gestation macaque TSCs and STs are permissive to ZIKV infection, and that EV analysis may provide a foundation for identifying non-invasive biomarkers of placental infection in a highly translational model.

ELF3 activated by a super-enhancer and an autoregulatory feedback loop is required for high level HLA-C expression on extravillous trophoblasts

Project description:HLA-C arose during evolution of pregnancy in the Great Apes 10-15 million years ago. It has a dual function on placental extravillous trophoblasts (EVT) as it contributes to both tolerance and immunity at the maternal-fetal interface. The mode of its regulation is of considerable interest in connection with the biology of pregnancy and pregnancy abnormalities. First trimester primary EVT in which HLA-C is highly expressed, as well as JEG3, an EVT model cell lines, were employed. Single cell RNA-seq data and quantitative PCR identified high expression of the transcription factor ELF3 in those cells. ChIP-PCR confirmed that both ELF3 and MED1 bound to the proximal HLA-C promoter region. However, binding of RFX5 to this region was absent or severely reduced and the adjacent HLA-B locus remained closed. Expression of HLA-C was inhibited by ELF3 siRNAs and by wrenchnolol treatment. Wrenchnolol is a cell-permeable synthetic organic molecule that mimics ELF3 and is relatively specific for binding to ELF3’s coactivator, MED23, as our data also showed in JEG3. Moreover, the ELF3 gene is regulated by a super-enhancer that spans more than 5 Mb, identified by ATAC-seq, as well as by its sensitivity to (+)-JQ1 (inhibitor of BRD4). ELF3 bound to its own promoter, thus creating an autoregulatory feedback loop that establishes expression of ELF3 and HLA-C in trophoblasts. Wrenchnolol blocked binding of MED23 to ELF3, thus disrupting the positive feedback loop that drives ELF3 expression, with down regulation of HLA-C expression as a consequence.

Transcriptomic Drivers of Differentiation, Maturation, and Polyploidy in Human Extravillous Trophoblast [SNP array]

Project description:During pregnancy, normal extravillous trophoblast (EVT) invade the endomyometrium of the maternal uterus and remodel the spiral arteries to control blood supply and nutrient transfer. Recent reports have described first trimester EVT as polyploid and senescent. Here we extend these earlier reports by performing comprehensive profiling of the genomic organization and transcriptome of first trimester EVT and term EVT. We define pathways and gene regulatory networks involved in both initial differentiation and maturation of this important trophoblast lineage at the maternal-fetal interface. Our results suggest that like first trimester EVT, term EVT undergo senescence and endoreduplication, are primarily tetraploid, and lack high rates of copy number variations. Additionally, we have highlighted senescence and polyploidy-related genes, pathways, networks, and transcription factors that appeared to be important in normal EVT differentiation and maturation and have validated a critical role for the unfolded protein response in EVT differentiation.
