Transgenic porcine model reveals two roles for LGR5 during lung development and homeostasis [Bulk RNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: Stem cell dynamics in the lung govern homeostasis, repair, and regeneration, yet there is still much unknown about the mechanisms of these processes. Furthermore, incongruencies between murine and human physiology limit the translation of some findings. In this work, we address these limitations by using a transgenic pig model to identify two populations of LGR5+ cells in the lung that are present in the human but that are absent from the mouse. Using RNA sequencing, 3D imaging, organoid models, and differentiation assays, we determine that in the fetal lung, epithelial LGR5 expression is transient in a subpopulation of developing lung bud tips. While epithelial LGR5 expression is absent from postnatal lung, it is reactivated in some organoids derived from basal airway cells. A separate population of LGR5+ cells is mesenchymal, surrounds developing and mature airways, is closely associated with nerve fibers, and acts as a multipotent progenitor cell capable of supporting the airway basal cell niche. These results point to two roles for LGR5 in orchestrating stem and progenitor cell dynamics, and provide a physiologically relevant model for further studies on the role of these populations in repair and regeneration.

Single cell transcriptome analysis of distal adult human lung airway cells

Project description:To comprehensively study the heterogeneity within distal airway epithelium, we performed single cell transcriptomic analysis of the normal human donor lung samples. Our analysis reveals that secretory (club) and basal cells in the distal lung airway epithelial cells are highly heterogenous. Further interrogation of secretory cells identified a subpopulation with potential for alveolar differentiation in vitro, implicating distal lung airway secretory cells as new candidates in alveolar repair and regeneration.

Gene expression data from two murine tracheal cell populations

Project description:The airway epithelium is in contact with the environment and therefore constantly at risk for injury. Basal cells have been found to repair the surface epithelium, but the contribution of other stem cell populations to airway epithelial repair have not been identified. We demonstrated that airway submucosal gland duct cells, in addition to basal cells, survived severe hypoxic-ischemic injury. We developed a method to isolate duct cells from the airway. In vitro and in vivo models were used to compare the self-renewal and differentiation potential of duct cells and basal cells. We found that only duct cells were capable of regenerating submucosal gland tubules and ducts, as well as the surface epithelium overlying the submucosal glands. This is of importance to the field of lung regeneration as determining the repairing cell populations could lead to the identification of novel therapeutic targets and cell-based therapies for patients with airway diseases. Murine proximal airway duct and basal cells were isolated from 8-12 week old male and female mice and FACS sorted. Each sample contains cells that were sorted from a different pool of 10-15 C57Bl/6 mice. RNA was extracted, labeled, and hybridized to Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (GPL1261)

The effects of Lef-1 overexpression on culture-expanded MECs

Project description:The mouse trachea is thought to contain two distinct stem cell compartments that contribute to airway repair—basal cells in the surface airway epithelium (SAE) and an unknown submucosal gland (SMG) cell type. Whether a lineage relationship exists between these two stem cell compartments remains unclear. Using lineage tracing of glandular myoepithelial cells (MECs), we demonstrate that MECs can give rise to seven cell types of the SAE and SMGs following severe airway injury. MECs progressively adopted a basal cell phenotype on the SAE and established lasting progenitors capable of further regeneration following reinjury. MECs activate Wnt-regulated transcription factors (Lef-1/TCF7) following injury and Lef-1 induction in cultured MECs promoted transition to a basal cell phenotype. Surprisingly, dose-dependent MEC conditional activation of Lef-1 in vivo promoted self-limited airway regeneration in the absence of injury. Thus, modulating the Lef-1 transcriptional program in MEC-derived progenitors may have regenerative medicine applications for lung diseases.

Mandatory Role of HMGA1 in Human Airway Epithelial Normal Differentiation and Post-injury Regeneration

Project description:Background: High mobility group AT-hook1 (HMGA1) is essential for airway basal cell mucociliary differentiation, barrier integrity and wound repair. HMGA1 expression suppresses the abnormal basal cell differentiation to squamous, inflammatory and epithelial-mesenchymal transition phenotype commonly observed in association with cigarette smoking and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Results: HMGA1 knockdown experiments indicate that when HMGA1 expression is suppressed, the airway basal cells cannot normally differentiate into a mucociliary epithelium, form an intact barrier, and repair following injury. Instead, airway basal cell differentiation was skewed to an abnormal squamous EMT-like phenotype associated with airway remodeling in COPD. This study demonstrates that HMGA1 plays a key role in normal airway differentiation, regeneration of the normal airway epithelium following injury, and suppression of expression of genes related to squamous metaplasia, EMT and inflammation.

Single-cell RNA-seq reveals novel cell differentiation dynamics during human airway epithelium regeneration

Project description:The upper airway epithelium is mainly composed of 4 cell types: multiciliated, goblet, secretory and basal cells. It constitutes an efficient first line of defense of the respiratory tract against a large panel of inhaled substances. Upon injury, regeneration of this epithelium through proliferation and differentiation events can restore a proper mucociliary function. In chronic airway diseases, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or asthma, the injured epithelium frequently displays defective repair leading to tissue remodeling, characterized by a loss of multiciliated cells and mucus hyper-secretion. This situation emphasizes the need to accurately delineate the drivers of differentiation dynamics and cell fate in human airway epithelium. We have used single cell transcriptomics to characterize the sequence of cellular and molecular processes taking place during human airway mucociliary epithelium regeneration in vitro. A comparison with single-cell data from fresh human and pig airway samples, and from in vitro mouse tracheal epithelial cells confirmed our findings in several distinct mammalian species. Single-cell RNA-seq in the airways provides novel insights in differentiation dynamics with the identification of alternative cell trajectories, novel cell subpopulations and by mapping the activation and repression of key signaling pathways.

Distal airway stem cells yield alveoli in vitro and during lung regeneration following H1N1 influenza infection (colony)

Project description:The extent of lung regeneration following catastrophic damage and the potential role of adult stem cells in such a process remains obscure. Sublethal infection of mice with an H1N1 influenza virus related to that of the 1918 pandemic triggers massive airway damage followed by apparent regeneration. We show here that p63-expressing stem cells in the bronchiolar epithelium undergo rapid proliferation after infection and radiate to interbronchiolar regions of alveolar ablation. Once there, these cells assemble into discrete, Krt5+ pods and initiate expression of markers typical of alveoli. Gene expression profiles of these pods suggest that they are intermediates in the reconstitution of the alveolar-capillary network eradicated by viral infection. The dynamics of this p63-expressing stem cell in lung regeneration mirrors our parallel findings that defined pedigrees of human distal airway stem cells assemble alveoli-like structures in vitro and suggests new therapeutic avenues to acute and chronic airway disease. 3 colonies fron control and H1N1 influenza treated lungs (12 dpi) ,each were picked for whole genome microarray analysis

Dynamic regulation of tissue fluidity controls skin repair during wound healing [scRNA-seq]

Project description:During wounding healing, different pools of stem cells (SCs) During homeostasis, different compartments of the epidermis are sustained by distinct pools of stem cells (SC) whereas, upon wounding, these different SCs contribute to skin repair. However, how SCs become activated and drive the tissue remodeling essential for skin repair is still poorly understood. Here, by developing a mouse model allowing lineage tracing and basal cell lineage ablation while leaving the basic organization of the skin intact, we monitor SC fate and tissue dynamics during regeneration using confocal and intravital imaging. Analysis of basal cell rearrangements shows dynamic transitions from a solid-like homeostatic state to a fluid-like state allowing tissue remodelling during repair, as predicted by a minimal mathematical modelling of the spatiotemporal dynamics and fate behaviour of the basal cells population. The basal cell layer progressively returns to a solid-like state with re-epithelialization and the restoration of barrier function. Bulk, single-cell RNA and epigenetic profiling of SCs together with functional experiments uncover a common regenerative state regulated by the EGFR/AP1 axis activated during tissue fluidization that is essential for skin SC activation and tissue repair.
