Podocalyxin-Like Protein 1 Regulates Pluripotency through the Cholesterol Biosynthesis Pathway

ABSTRACT: Deciphering signaling mechanisms critical for the extended pluripotent stem cell (EPSC) state and primed pluripotency is necessary for understanding embryonic development. Here, we identify a membrane protein, Podocalyxin-like protein 1 (PODXL) as being essential for extended and primed pluripotency. Alteration of PODXL expression levels affects self-renewal, protein expression of c-MYC and telomerase, and induced pluripotent stems cell (iPSC) and EPSC colony formation. PODXL is the first membrane protein reported to regulate de novo cholesterol biosynthesis, and human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) are more sensitive to cholesterol depletion than fibroblasts. The addition of exogenous cholesterol fully restores PODXL knockdown-mediated loss of pluripotency. PODXL affects lipid raft dynamics via the regulation of cholesterol. PODXL recruits the RAC1/CDC42/actin network to regulate SREBP1 and SREBP2 maturation and lipid raft dynamics. Single-cell RNA sequencing reveals PODXL overexpression enhanced chimerism between human cells in mouse host embryos (hEPSCs 57%). Interestingly, in the human-mouse chimeras, laminin and collagen signaling-related pathways are dominant in PODXL overexpressing cells. We conclude that cholesterol regulation via PODXL signaling is critical for ESC/EPSC.

Attempts for deriving extended pluripotent stem cells from common marmoset embryonic stem cells

Project description:Extended pluripotent stem cells (EPSCs) derived from mice and humans showed an enhanced potential for chimeric formation. By exploiting transcriptomic techniques, we assessed the differences in gene expression profile between extended EPSCs derived from mice and humans, and those newly derived from the common marmoset (marmoset; Callithrix jacchus). Although the marmoset EPSC-like cells displayed a unique colony morphology distinct from murine and human EPSCs, they displayed a pluripotent state akin to embryonic stem cells (ESCs), as confirmed by gene expression and immunocytochemical analyses of pluripotency markers and three-germ-layer differentiation assay. Importantly, the marmoset EPSC-like cells showed interspecies chimeric contribution to mouse embryos, such as E6.5 blastocysts in vitro and E8.5 epiblasts in vivo in mouse development. Also, we discovered that the perturbation of gene expression of the marmoset EPSC-like cells from the original ESCs resembled that of human EPSCs. Thus, we established the efficacy of the method for the derivation of marmoset EPSCs

Diverse development potency and metabolic shape of extended pluripotency are faithfully transferred to somatic cells via cell fusion reprogramming

Project description:Extended pluripotent stem cells (EPSCs) are a novel cell type derived from 8-cell stage embryo or conversion of pluripotent stem cells using a chemical cocktail that blocks the cell fate decision. Previous studies have defined various aspects of EPSCs including dual differentiational potency to both extraembryonic and embryonic lineages, their ability to directly transfer extended pluripotency to differentiated somatic cells by cell fusion remains unelucidated. Here, we sought to determine whether somatic cells could be reprogrammed and obtain extended pluripotency. In this study, newly derived EPSCs are fused with neural stem cells, which is somatic stem cells, by polyethylene glycol (PEG)-mediated method. The resulting hybrid cells exhibited pluripotential properties with upregulated EPSC-specific genes. Also, hybrid cells contributed to the embryonic and extraembryonic lineages in vivo and in vitro. RNA-sequencing analysis confirmed that the global gene expression pattern of hybrid cells are similar to EPSC while there is no expression of NSC markers, indicating complete erasure of somatic memory after fusion reprogramming. Lastly, EPSCs and hybrids exhibited a bivalent energy metabolism phenotype or more active oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) and glycolysis than NSCs. In conclusion, the extended pluripotency of EPSCs could be transferred to somatic cells through fusion-induced reprogramming.

Gene expression profile of podocalyxin-like protein 1(PODXL) overexpressing and GFP overexpressing control embryonic stem cells

Project description:The transmembrane signals maintain the pluripotency of human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) are rarely investigated. A transmembrane glycoprotein, podocalyxin-like protein 1 (PODXL, also called podocalyxin like protein-1, PCLP1, Gp200/GCTM-2, MEP21, and Thrombomucin), aside from its well-known role in tumor malignancy, very little is known about its functions in hPSCs. In order to map the early signals triggered by PODXL, after 3 days of PODXL overexpression, a comprehensive gene expression profile changes were analyzed by cDNA microarray.

Multi-Omic Profiling Reveals Dynamics of the Phased Progression of Pluripotency

Project description:Pluripotency is highly dynamic and progresses through a continuum of pluripotent stem-cell states. The two states that bookend the pluripotency continuum, naïve and primed, are well characterized, but our understanding of the intermediate states and transitions between them remain incomplete. Here, we dissect the dynamics of pluripotent state transitions underlying pre- to post-implantation epiblast differentiation. Through comprehensive mapping of the proteome, phosphoproteome, transcriptome, and epigenome of embryonic stem cells transitioning from naïve to primed pluripotency, we find that rapid, acute, and widespread changes to the phosphoproteome precede ordered changes to the epigenome, transcriptome, and proteome. Reconstruction of kinase-substrate networks reveals signaling cascades, dynamics, and crosstalk. Distinct waves of global proteomic changes mark discrete phases of pluripotency, with cell state-specific surface markers tracking pluripotent state transitions. Our data provide new insights into the multi-layered control of the phased progression of pluripotency and a foundation for modeling mechanisms regulating pluripotent state transitions (www.stemcellatlasorg).

The functional role of OGDH for maintaining mitochondrial respiration and identity of primed human embryonic stem cells

Project description:Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) can self-renew infinitely or differentiate into the 3 germ layer lineages in vitro with certain cues, holding great promise to model early human embryo development ex vivo. It is wildly accepted that hESCs take advantage of both glycolysis and mitochondrial respiration to favor the naïve pluripotency, while prefer glycolysis to support the primed pluripotency. Thus, the function of mitochondrial respiration in primed hESCs has been underestimated for a long time, and has not been fully understood yet. Herein, we report that the adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production rate is comparable between mitochondrial respiration and glycolysis, suggesting that mitoATP may serve as one of the major sources of the ATP pool in primed hESCs. To further reveal the function of mitochondrial respiration, we deployed inducible CRISPRi method to inhibit OGDH expression with high efficiency, resulting in the TCA cycle blockade as well as the diminishment of mitochondrial respiration activity and total ATP level. Of note, OGDH deficiency led to the exit of primed pluripotency accompanied by cell death. Furthermore, the treatment with small molecule inhibitors to block electron transport chain (ETC) can phenocopy the loss-of-function of OGDH in hESCs. Therefore, genetic and pharmacological perturbations on mitochondrial respiration can impair the stemness of primed hESCs. Collectively, the current study unveils that OGDH acts as a key regulator to fine-tune the abundance of TCA cycle metabolites to ensure the mitochondrial respiration activity in primed hESCs, and highlights the pivotal roles of mitochondrial respiration in terms of ATP production and the maintenance of primed pluripotency. Our findings may provide insights into the linkage between pluripotent states and energy metabolism in hESCs.

YY1 safeguard multidimensional epigenetic landscape associated with extended pluripotency

Project description:Although extended pluripotent stem cells (EPSCs) have the potential to form both embryonic and extraembryonic lineages, how their transcriptional regulatory mechanism differs from that of embryonic stem cells (ESCs) remains unclear. Here, we discovered that YY1 binds to specific open chromatin regions in EPSCs. Yy1 depletion in EPSCs leads to a gene expression pattern more similar to that of ESCs than control EPSCs. Moreover, Yy1 depletion triggers a series of epigenetic crosstalk activities, including changes in DNA methylation, histone modifications and high-order chromatin structures. Yy1 depletion in EPSCs disrupts the enhancer-promoter (EP) interactions of EPSC-specific genes, including Dnmt3l. Yy1 loss results in DNA hypomethylation and dramatically reduces the enrichment of H3K4me3 and H3K27ac on the promoters of EPSC-specific genes by upregulating the expression of Kdm5c and Hdac6 through facilitating the formation of CCCTC-binding factor (CTCF)-mediated EP interactions surrounding their loci. Furthermore, single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) experiments revealed that YY1 is required for the derivation of extraembryonic endoderm (XEN)-like cells from EPSCs in vitro. Together, this study reveals that YY1 functions as a key regulator of multidimensional epigenetic crosstalk associated with extended pluripotency.

Stirred suspension bioreactors maintain naïve pluripotency of human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs)

Project description:Although cell therapies require large numbers of quality-controlled hPSCs, existing technologies are limited in their ability to efficiently grow and scale stem cells. We report here that cell-state conversion from primed-to-naïve pluripotency enhances the biomanufacturing of hPSCs. Naïve hPSCs exhibit superior growth kinetics and aggregate formation characteristics in stirred suspension bioreactors compared to their primed counterparts. Moreover, we demonstrate the role of the bioreactor mechanical environment in the maintenance of naïve pluripotency, through transcriptomic enrichment of mechano-sensing signaling for cells in the bioreactor along with a decrease in expression of lineage-specific and primed pluripotency hallmarks. Bioreactor-cultured, naïve hPSCs express epigenetic regulatory transcripts associated with naïve pluripotency, and display hallmarks of X-chromosome reactivation. They exhibit robust production of naïve pluripotency metabolites and display reduced expression of primed pluripotency cell surface markers. We also show that these cells retain the ability to undergo targeted differentiation into beating cardiomyocytes, hepatocytes, and neural rosettes. They additionally display faster kinetics of teratoma formation compared to their primed counterparts. Naïve bioreactor hPSCs also retain structurally stable chromosomes. Our research corroborates that converting hPSCs to the naïve state enhances hPSC manufacturing and indicates a potentially important role for the bioreactor’s mechanical environment in maintaining naïve pluripotency.

In vitro capture and characterization of embryonic rosette-stage pluripotency between naive and primed states

Project description:Upon implantation, the naive pluripotent epiblast of the mouse blastocyst generates a rosette, undergoes lumenogenesis and forms the primed pluripotent egg cylinder, able to generate the embryonic tissues. How pluripotency progression and morphogenesis are linked, and whether intermediate pluripotent states exist remain controversial. We identify here a rosette pluripotent state, defined by co-expression of naive factors with transcription factor OTX2. Downregulation of blastocyst WNT signals drives transition into rosette pluripotency by inducing OTX2. The rosette then activates MEK signals that induce lumenogenesis and drive progression to primed pluripotency. Consequently, combined WNT and MEK inhibition supports rosette-like stem cells (RSCs), a self-renewing naive-primed intermediate. RSCs erase constitutive heterochromatin marks and display a primed chromatin landscape, with bivalently marked primed pluripotency genes. Nonetheless, WNT induces reversion to naive pluripotency. The rosette is therefore a reversible pluripotent intermediate where control over both pluripotency progression and morphogenesis pivots from WNT to MEK signals.

A mass spectrometry survey of chromatin-associated proteins in pluripotency and early lineage commitment

Project description:Pluripotent Embryonic Stem Cells (ESCs) can be captured in vitro in different states, ranging from unrestricted ‘naïve’ to more developmentally constrained ‘primed’ pluripotency. Complexes involved in epigenetic regulation and key transcription factors have been shown to be involved in specifying these distinct states. In this study, we use proteomic profiling of the chromatin landscape in naive pluripotent ESCs, Epistem cells (EpiSCs) and early differentiated ESCs to survey the chromatin in naïve and primed pluripotency and during differentiation. We provide a comprehensive overview of epigenetic complexes situated on the chromatin and identify proteins associated with the maintenance and loss of pluripotency. The findings presented here indicate major compositional alterations of epigenetic complexes starting from ESC priming onwards. Our results contribute to the understanding of ESC differentiation and provide a framework for future studies of lineage commitment of ESCs.
