Chromatin states at homeoprotein loci distinguish axolotl limb segments prior to regeneration [RNA-seq]

Project description:The salamander limb regenerates only the missing portion. Each limb segment can only form segments equivalent to- or more distal to their own identity, relying on a property termed “positional information”. How positional information is encoded in limb cells has been unknown. By cell-type-specific chromatin profiling of upper arm, lower arm, and hand, we found segment-specific levels of histone H3K27me3 at limb homeoprotein gene loci but not their upstream regulators, constituting an intrinsic segment information code. During regeneration, regeneration-specific regulatory elements became active prior to the re-appearance of developmental regulatory elements. This means that, in the hand segment, the permissive chromatin state of the hand homeoprotein gene HoxA13 engages with regeneration regulatory elements, bypassing the upper limb program. We performed Differential Gene expression analysis using data obtained from RNA-seq of two mature limb segments (mature arm vs hand). Therefore, we performed libraries from the mature arm and 5, 9, 13 dpa regenerating arm blastema.

The Meis homeoprotein regulates the axolotl Prod 1 promoter during limb regeneration.

Project description:During limb regeneration in salamanders the blastemal cells give rise only to structures distal to the level of amputation. This proximodistal identity can be regulated by ectopic expression of Meis homeoproteins or the three finger protein Prod 1 which acts at the cell surface. It has been suggested that Meis acts by regulating the transcription of Prod 1. We have sequenced the axolotl Prod 1 promoter and selected two candidate sites for binding Meis homeoproteins. The sites were mutated in various combinations in promoters expressing a luciferase reporter gene. The promoter activity was assayed by nucleofecting AL1 cells, a cultured axolotl limb cell line that expresses both Prod 1 and Meis 1 and 2. The activity of the promoter was inhibited by 60% after mutation at Meis site 1, but not at Meis site 2. The promoter constructs were electroporated into axolotl limb blastemas and the wild type promoter was more active in a proximal blastema than in a contralateral distal blastema. The wild type promoter was significantly more active than a (site 1+site 2) mutant promoter in contralateral proximal blastemas, but the promoters were equivalent in contralateral distal blastemas. The separate site 1 or site 2 mutants were not significantly different from wild type in contralateral proximal blastemas, thus contrasting with the site 1 results in AL1 cells. These data provide strong support for the hypotheses that the Prod 1 promoter is regulated on the proximodistal axis, and that Meis homeoproteins directly regulate the promoter on this axis during limb regeneration in addition to cultured cells.

Gene expression profile of the regeneration epithelium during axolotl limb regeneration.

Project description:Urodele amphibians are unique among adult vertebrates in their ability to regenerate missing limbs. The process of limb regeneration requires several key tissues including a regeneration-competent wound epidermis called the regeneration epithelium (RE). We used microarray analysis to profile gene expression of the RE in the axolotl, a Mexican salamander. A list of 125 genes and expressed sequence tags (ESTs) showed a ?1.5-fold expression in the RE than in a wound epidermis covering a lateral cuff wound. A subset of the RE ESTs and genes were further characterized for expression level changes over the time-course of regeneration. This study provides the first large scale identification of specific gene expression in the RE.

Dynamic expression of two thrombospondins during axolotl limb regeneration.

Project description:The molecular processes underlying regeneration remain largely unknown. Several potential factors have been elucidated by focusing on the regenerative function of genes originally identified in a developmental context. A complementary approach is to consider the roles of factors involved in wound healing. Here we focus on the Thrombospondins, a family of secreted extracellular matrix proteins that have been implicated in skin wound healing in mammals. We show that a subset of Thrombospondins are expressed at distinct times and in particular cell types during axolotl limb regeneration. Our studies have revealed the axolotl orthologs of thrombospondin-1 (tsp-1) and thrombospondin-4 (tsp-4) are highly upregulated during limb regeneration in patterns both distinct and similar to larval limb development. Our data suggest that thrombospondins may be key regulators of limb regeneration in axolotl, while their activation appears to be relegated solely to wound healing in vertebrates that have lost the ability to regenerate limbs.
