Apical-basal polarity drives pancreatic alpha/beta cell fate allocation

ABSTRACT: A central question in cell and developmental biology is how extracellular cues control the differentiation of multipotent progenitors in a dynamically changing niche. Here, we identify apical-basal polarity as the main regulator of the differentiation of multipotent pancreatic Neurogenin3+ endocrine progenitors (EPs) into the beta or alpha cell fates. We show that human EPs dynamically change their apical-basal polarity status. Whereas polarized EPs are predisposed to differentiate into beta cells rather than alpha cells, inhibiting apical-basal polarity selectively suppresses beta cell differentiation. Single-cell RNA sequencing and complementary mechanistic data demonstrate that apical-basal polarity in human EPs promotes beta cell specification via cyclic AMP (cAMP)/PKA-cAMP response element binding protein (CREB)-EGR1-mediated inhibition of ARX expression, while reduced cAMP levels in non-polarized human EPs maintain expression of ARX, leading to alpha cell differentiation. These findings identify the apical-basal polarity status of multipotent EPs as a critical epithelial feature that determines their fate into the alpha or beta cell lineages.

Identification of genes responsive to change in apical polarity in the breast epithelium

Project description:Differentiation of monolayered epithelia is characterized by the formation of a basoapical polarity axis, except during the early stages of cancer development. Using mammary glandular structures (acini) produced in a three-dimensional cell culture system we have demonstrated that, in order for mammary epithelial cells to exit quiescence and enter the cell cycle, acini have to lose apical polarity. In order to identify the genes dependent on apical polarity that could control cell quiescence, and possibly other aspects of tissue homeostasis, we have used Affymetrix technology microarray analysis of the 22,277 features/genes of the Human Genome U133A 2.0 array Chip in apically polarized and non-polarized breast epithelial acinar cells in three-dimensional culture. Genes commonly down-regulated in two treatments that altered apical polarity compared to control were considered to be dependent on apical polarity status for their transcription. Apically polarized (Control) and two different populations of non-polarized human mammary epithelial cells (18-alpha-glycyrrhetinic acid =AGA, and 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine =Aza) were used for microarray analysis containing four biological replicates (1-4) for each treatment. The two treatments that cause loss of apical polarity were compared to reference apically polarized control samples using two different statistical analysis methods (FDR and HolmM-bM-^@M-^Ys).

De novo formation of apical-basal polarity by Rap1 regulates epiblast patterning

Project description:The epiblast is the first cell type that forms apical-basal polarity de novo as the mouse embryo implants into the maternal uterus, while the extraembryonic neighbours of the epiblast - trophectoderm and primitive endoderm - retain their pre-established polarity beyond implantation [1]; however, it is still unclear how the epiblast establishes apical-basal polarity de novo. Here, we focused on Rap1 signaling pathway, which is activated during the transition of the epiblast from the naïve to primed state of pluripotency during implantation [2]. Through the preestablished in vitro three-dimensional culture system [3], genetic knockouts and proximity-biotinylation analyses, we found that Rap1 integrates multiple signals that contribute to de novo formation of apical-basal polarity. Importantly, formation of apical-basal polarity in the epiblast is essential for its correct patterning and proper communication with the extraembryonic lineages. Altogether, these results not only dissect molecular details of de novo apical-basal polarity formation, but also have broader implications for epithelial polarity and development.

Expression profiling of 3D 2D MDCKII epithelial morphogenesis

Project description:Formation of epithelial tissues requires the generation of apical-basal polarity and the co-ordination of this polarity between neighboring cells to form a central lumen. MDCK cell line has proven to be a powerful model to study mammalian polarized epithelia in vitro. MDCK cells plated in extracellular matrix (ECM) form cysts, a spherical structure of polarized cells enclosing a central lumen which resembles epithelial tubular structures. The morphogenetic process requires drastic changes in cell architecture, which are regulated by change in gene expression. We used microarrays to identify genes up-regulated in lumen formation. The identification of up-regulated genes could lead us to characterize novel pathways needed for this process. MDCKII cells were plated in two different conditions: Cells cultured in confluence in plastic dishes, forming polarized monolayers (2D); or cells cultured in plastic dishes covered with Matrigel (ECM) forming three dimensional cysts (3D). Comparison of both transcriptomic profiles would lead us to identify up-regulated genes in the 3D condition, which would be good candidates to be key regulators of novel processes involved in lumen morphogenesis.

Converting adult pancreatic α-cells into β-cells by targeting Dnmt1 and Arx

Project description:After their destruction in adult mice, insulin-producing pancreatic beta-cells slowly regenerate from other islet cells, like glucagon-producing alpha-cells. However the molecular basis of this conversion is unknown. Moreover it remains unclear if this intra-islet cell conversion is relevant to human diseases with extensive beta-cell loss, like in type 1 diabetes (T1D). Here, we show that subsets of glucagon-expressing cells in subjects with T1D produce Insulin and other molecular features of beta-cells, accompanied by loss of the alpha-cell regulators DNA methyltransferase 1 (Dnmt1) and Aristaless-related homeobox (Arx). We generated mice permitting lineage tracing and inactivation of Dnmt1 and Arx in adult alpha-cells. Within 3 months of Dnmt1 and Arx loss, 50% of alpha-cells converted into cells producing insulin protein but not glucagon, changes not observed in alpha-cells after only Arx or Dnmt1 loss. Single cell isolation and high-throughput RNA sequencing revealed efficient and extensive alpha-cell conversion into progeny indistinguishable by global gene expression from native beta-cells. Our work reveals pathways regulated by Arx and Dnmt1 sufficient for achieving targeted generation of beta-cells from adult pancreatic alpha-cells.

The natural statin α,β-dehydromonacolin K exerts anti-secretory effect in human intestinal epithelial cells via a nonsense-mediated mRNA decay-dependent mechanism

Project description:The cAMP-induced intestinal chloride secretion plays a significant role in the pathogenesis of secretory diarrheas. This study aimed to investigate the anti-secretory effects of α,β-dehydromonacolin K, a derivative of lovastatin from Aspergillus sclerotiorum, on cAMP-induced chloride and fluid secretion in human T84 cells and human colonoids. In T84 cells, α,β-dehydromonacolin K inhibited cAMP-induced chloride secretion with an IC50 of ~ 6.32 μM. Apical chloride current analyses in T84 cells demonstrated that α,β-dehydromonacolin K inhibits CFTR chloride channels, stimulated by cAMP agonists, with IC50 of ~ 1 μM. Interestingly, potency of α,β-dehydromonacolin K on CFTR inhibition was decreased in the presence of AMP-activated protein kinase inhibitor or when genistein, a direct CFTR activator, was as a stimulator. Basolateral potassium current analyses indicated that α,β-dehydromonacolin K did not affect basolateral potassium channel activities. In a three-dimensional (3D) model of human colonoids, α,β-dehydromonacolin K significantly suppressed both cAMP-induced and calcium-induced fluid secretion. Proteomic analysis in human clonoids revealed that α,β-dehydromonacolin K interacted with 33 proteins, including those associated with nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Notably, inhibitory effects of α,β-dehydromonacolin K on cAMP-induced chloride secretion in T84 cells and cAMP-induced fluid secretion in human colonoids were significantly diminished in the presence of a nonsense-mediated mRNA decay inhibitor SMG 1i, suggesting that α,β-dehydromonacolin K inhibited the cAMP-induced fluid secretion in human intestinal epithelial cells by mechanisms involving the nonsense-mediated mRNA decay pathways. In summary, α,β-dehydromonacolin K represents a promising class of natural compounds that exerts an anti-secretory effect in human intestinal epithelia via a novel mechanism of action.

Dual β-catenin and γ-catenin loss in hepatocytes impacts their polarity through altered TGFβ and HNF4⍺ signaling

Project description:Hepatocytes are highly polarized epithelia. Loss of hepatocyte polarity is associated with various liver diseases, including cholestasis. However, the molecular underpinnings of hepatocyte polarization remain poorly understood. Previously, we have shown that loss of β-catenin at adherens junctions (AJs) is compensated by β-catenin and dual loss of both catenins in dual knockouts (DKO) in mice liver leads to progressive intrahepatic cholestasis. However, the clinical relevance of this observation, and further phenotypic characterization of the phenotype, is important. Here, we identify simultaneous loss of β- and γ-catenin in a subset of liver samples from patients of progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis and primary sclerosing cholangitis. Hepatocytes in DKO mice exhibited defect in apical-basolateral localization of polarity proteins, impaired bile canaliculi formation, and loss of microvilli. Loss of polarity in DKO livers manifested as epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition, increased hepatocyte proliferation, and suppression of hepatocyte differentiation, which was associated with up-regulation of TGFβ signaling and repression of Hnf4α expression and activity. In conclusion, concomitant loss of the two catenins in the liver may be playing a pathogenic role in subsets of cholangiopathies. Our findings also support a previously unknown role β- and γ-catenin in the maintenance of hepatocyte polarity. Improved understanding of the regulation of hepatocyte polarization processes by β and γ-catenin could potentially benefit development of new therapies for cholestasis.
