Distinct and redundant roles for zebrafish her genes during osteoblast differentiation and craniofacial patterning.

ABSTRACT: The Notch pathway is a cell-cell communication system which is critical for many developmental processes, including craniofacial development. Notch receptor activation induces expression of several well-known canonical targets including those encoded by the hes and her genes in mammals and zebrafish, respectively. The function of these genes, individually and in combination, during craniofacial development is not well understood. Here, we investigated zebrafish her9 and her6 gene function during craniofacial development. We found that her9 is required for osteoblasts to efficiently mineralize bone, while cartilage is largely unaffected. Strikingly, gene expression studies in her9 mutants indicate that although progenitor cells differentiate into osteoblasts at the appropriate time and place, they fail to efficiently lay down mineralized matrix. This mineralization role of her9 is likely independent of Notch activation. In contrast, her9 also functions redundantly with her6 downstream of Jagged1b-induced Notch activation during dorsoventral craniofacial patterning. These studies disentangle distinct and redundant her gene functions during craniofacial development, including an unexpected, Notch independent, requirement during bone mineralization

Hdac4 regulates proliferation of neural crest-derived osteoblasts during murine craniofacial development

Project description:Craniofacial development involves regulation of a compendium of transcription factors, signaling molecules and epigenetic regulators. Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are involved in the regulation of cell proliferation, differentiation and homeostasis across a wide range of tissues, such as brain, cardiovascular system, muscular system, and skeletal system. However, functional role of Hdac4 during craniofacial development is still unclear. In this study, we investigated the effects of Hdac4 knockout in craniofacial skeletal development by conditionally disrupting the Hdac4 gene in cranial neural crest cells (CNCCs) using Cre-mediated recombination. Mice deficient in Hdac4 in CNCCs-derived osteoblasts demonstrated a dramatic decrease in bone formation in frontal bone. In vitro pre-osteoblasts (MC3T3-E1 cells) lacking Hdac4 exhibited reduced proliferation activity in association with dysregulation of cell cycle-related genes. These findings suggest that Hdac4 acts partially as a regulator of craniofacial skeletal development by positively regulating proliferation of CNCCs-derived osteoblasts.

RNA-seq Analysis of Wild Type and Mark3-/- mouse primary osteoblasts

Project description:Bone mineral density (BMD) is a highly heritable predictor of osteoporotic fracture. Genome wide association studies (GWAS) have identified hundreds of loci influencing BMD, but few have been functionally analyzed. In this study, we show that SNPs within a BMD locus on Chromosome 14q32.32 alter splicing and expression of PAR-1a/MARK3, a conserved serine/threonine kinase known to regulate bioenergetics, cell division and polarity. Mice lacking Mark3 either globally or selectively in osteoblasts have increased bone mass at maturity. RNA profiling from Mark3 deficient osteoblasts suggested changes in the expression of components of the Notch signaling pathway. Mark3 deficient osteoblasts exhibited greater matrix mineralization compared with controls that was accompanied by reduced Jag1/Hes1 expression and diminished downstream JNK signaling. Overexpression of Jag1 in Mark3 deficient osteoblasts both in vitro and in vivo normalized mineralization capacity and bone mass, respectively. Together, these findings reveal a mechanism whereby genetically regulated alterations in Mark3 expression perturb cell signaling in osteoblasts to influence bone mass.

Transcription profiling by array of human trabecular bone osteogenic cells

Project description:The aim of this study was to describe the gene expression patterns related to the differentiation and mineralization of bone-forming cells, including activation and/or repression of osteogenic or non-osteogenic pathways, remodeling of cell architecture, cell adhesion, cell communication, and assembly of extracellular matrix. The study implied patient selection, tissue collection, isolation and culture of human marrow stromal cells (hMSC) and osteoblasts (hOB), and characterization of bone-forming cells. RNA samples were collected at defined time points, in order to understand the regulation of gene expression during the processes of cell differentiation/mineralization that occur during bone repair. Transcriptome analysis was performed by using the Affymetrix GeneChip microarray technology platform and GeneChip Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array. Our results help to design a gene expression profile of bone-forming cells during specific steps of osteogenic differentiation. These findings offer an useful tool to monitor the behaviour of osteogenic precursors cultured in presence of exogenous stimuli, i.e. growth factors, or onto 3D scaffolds for bone engineering. Moreover, they can contribute to identify and clarify the role of new genes for a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms regulating osteogenesis. Experiment Overall Design: Differentiated osteoblasts (hOB) were obtained from trabecular bone fragments of four patients. hOB cultures were maintained in mineralization medium containing beta-glycerophosphate, and collected at different time points. The experimental protocol was specifically devised to mark four steps of hOB mineralization (HM). The reference sample consisted in confluent hOBs before the addition of mineralization medium (HM1).

Notch Signaling Enhances Bone Regeneration in the Zebrafish Mandible

Project description:Loss or damage to the mandible due to trauma, treatment of oral malignancies, and other diseases is currently treated using bone grafting techniques that suffer from numerous shortcomings and contraindications. Zebrafish naturally heal large injuries to their mandibular bone, and thus offer an opportunity to understand how to boost intrinsic healing ability. Using a novel her6:mCherry Notch reporter, we show that canonical Notch signaling is induced during the initial stages of cartilage callus formation in both mesenchymal cells and chondrocytes. We also show that modulation of Notch signaling during the initial postoperative period results in lasting changes to regenerate bone quantity one month later. Notch signaling is required for mandibular bone healing, as pharmacological inhibition of Notch signaling blocks cartilage callus formation and results in non-union. Conversely, conditional transgenic activation of Notch signaling accelerates regenerative ossification. Mechanistically, we report that postoperative Notch signaling regulates multiple phases of chondroid regeneration and patterns callus metabolic landscape. Given conserved functions of Notch signaling in bone repair across vertebrates, we propose that targeted activation of Notch signaling during the early phases of bone healing may have therapeutic value.

Human iPSC can be differentiated in vitro to articular cartilage or to osteogenic organoids via the endochondral ossification transdifferentiation pathway

Project description:The ability to generate chondrocytes and osteoblasts from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) will provide insights into skeletal development and genetic skeletal disorders and generate cells for regenerative medicine applications. Here we describe a method that directs iPSC-derived sclerotome to chondroprogenitors in 3D pellet culture then to articular chondrocytes or, alternatively, along the growth plate cartilage pathway to become hypertrophic chondrocytes that can transdifferentiate to osteoblasts. Osteogenic organoids deposit and mineralize a collagen I extracellular matrix (ECM), mirroring in vivo endochondral bone formation. We have identified gene expression signatures at key developmental stages including chondrocyte maturation, hypertrophy and transdifferentiation to osteoblasts, and show that this system can be used to model genetic cartilage and bone disorders.

dact1/2 modifies noncanonical Wnt signaling and calpain 8 expression to regulate convergent extension and craniofacial development

Project description:Wnt signaling plays a fundamental role in the initial patterning and development of the embryo, including in the regulation of convergent extension during gastrulation and the establishment of the dorsal axis. Further, Wnt signaling is a crucial regulator of craniofacial morphogenesis. The relationship between early embryo patterning and craniofacial outcomes warrants further study. The adapter proteins Dact1 and Dact2 modulate the Wnt signaling pathway through binding to Disheveled, however, the distinct roles of Dact1 and Dact2 during embryogenesis remain to be fully elucidated. In this study, we investigated the spatiotemporal gene expression patterns of dact1 and dact2 during zebrafish embryogenesis, revealing both shared and unique domains of expression. We found that both dact1 and dact2 contribute to axis extension, with compound mutants exhibiting a similar convergent extension defect and craniofacial phenotype to the wnt11f2/slb mutant. Utilizing single-cell RNAseq and gpc4-/- zebrafish, a convergent extension mutant with an opposite craniofacial phenotype, we identified dact1/2 specific roles during early development. Using this subtractive approach, we discovered a novel role for dact1/2 in regulating the mRNA expression of the classical calpain, capn8, suggesting a previously unappreciated role of calcium-dependent proteolysis during embryogenesis. Taken together, our findings highlight the distinct and overlapping roles of dact1 and dact2 in embryonic craniofacial development, providing new insights into the multifaceted regulation of Wnt signaling.

Znf598-mediated Rps10/eS10 Ubiquitination contributes to the ribosome ubiquitination dynamics during zebrafish development

Project description:The ribosome is a translational apparatus that comprises about 80 ribosomal proteins and four rRNAs. Recent studies reported that ubiquitination of the ribosomal proteins plays a pivotal role in translational control and ribosome-associated quality control (RQC). However, little is known about the dynamics of ribosome ubiquitination under complex biological processes of multicellular organisms. To study ribosome ubiquitination during animal development, we generated a zebrafish strain that expresses a FLAG-tagged ribosomal protein Rpl36/eL36 from its endogenous locus. Combining affinity purification of ribosomes from rpl36-FLAG zebrafish embryos with immunoblotting analysis, we analyzed ribosome ubiquitination during zebrafish development. Our data showed that ubiquitination of ribosomal proteins dynamically changed as development proceeded. We further revealed that Znf598, an E3 ubiquitin ligase that triggers RQC, contributed to the ribosome ubiquitination during zebrafish development. LC-MS/MS analysis and immunoblotting analysis identified lysines 139 of ribosomal protein Rps10/eS10 as pivotal ubiquitination sites on the ribosome during development. Finally, we demonstrated that an Rps10 K139/140R mutation reduced overall ribosome ubiquitination pattern. Collectively, these results reveal dynamics and complexity of ribosome ubiquitination in zebrafish development.
