Project description:Trained immunity, or innate immune memory, has been attributed to the long-term retention of stimulus-induced histone post-translational modifications (PTMs) following clearance of the initial stimulus. Yet, it remains unknown how this epigenetic memory can persist for months in dividing cells given the lack of any known mechanism for stimulus-induced histone PTMs to be directly copied from parent to daughter strand during DNA replication. Here, using time course RNA-seq, ChIP-seq, and infection assays, we find that trained macrophages are transcriptionally, epigenetically, and functionally re-programmed for at least 14 cell divisions after stimulus washout. However, the epigenetic changes observed after multiple rounds of cell division do not result from the self-sustained propagation of stimulus-induced epigenetic changes through cell division. Instead, long-lasting epigenetic differences between trained and non-trained cells are always coupled with changes in transcription factor (TF) activity, emphasizing the central role played by TFs, and gene expression changes more broadly, in driving the transmission of stimulus-induced epigenetic changes across cell divisions.

Project description:To assess the timing and scope of IRF4–dependent reprogramming in vivo, CTV-labeled IRF4–sufficient and –deficient B cells were transferred into mMT hosts. One day later, hosts were challenged with 50 mg LPS. Three days post-LPS challenge, transferred cells were recovered and sorted from divisions 0, 1, 3, 4, 5, and 6 as determined by CTV dilution for RNA–seq.

Project description:B cell differentiation occurs over multiple cellular divisions and involves a switch in transcriptional programs that allows for antibody secretion. The transcription factors that drive this process have been studied but the epigenetic mechanisms and sites these factors function at are not well understood. Here we investigated the distinct changes in chromatin accessibility that occured at distinct cellular divisions during in vivo B cell differentiation.

Project description:Premitotic control of cell division orientation is critical for plant development, as cell walls prevent extensive cell remodelling or migration. Whilst many divisions are proliferative and add cells to existing tissues, some divisions are formative, and generate new tissue layers or growth axes. Such formative divisions are often asymmetric in nature, producing daughters with different fates. We have previously shown that in the Arabidopsis thaliana embryo, developmental asymmetry is correlated with geometric asymmetry, creating daughter cells of unequal volume. Such divisions are generated by division planes that deviate from a default “minimal surface area” rule. Inhibition of auxin response leads to reversal to this default, yet the mechanisms underlying division plane choice in the embryo have been unclear. Here we show that auxin-dependent division plane control involves alterations in cell geometry, but not in cell polarity or nuclear position. Through transcriptome profiling, we find that auxin regulates genes controlling cell wall and cytoskeleton properties. We confirm the involvement of microtubule (MT)-binding proteins in embryo division control. Topology of both MT and Actin cytoskeleton depend on auxin response, and genetically controlled MT or Actin depolymerization in embryos leads to disruption of asymmetric divisions, including reversion to the default. Our work shows how auxin-dependent control of MT- and Actin cytoskeleton properties interacts with cell geometry to generate asymmetric divisions during the earliest steps in plant development.

Project description:Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) balance self-renewal and differentiation to maintain homeostasis. With aging, the frequency of polar HSCs decreases. Cell polarity in HSCs is controlled by the activity of the small RhoGTPase Cdc42. Here we demonstrate, using a comprehensive set of paired daughter cell analyses that include single cell 3D-confocal imaging, single cell transplants, single cell RNA-seq as well as single cell ATAC-seq, that the outcome of HSC divisions is strongly linked to the polarity status before mitosis, which is in turn determined by the level of the activity Cdc42 in stem cells. Aged apolar HSCs undergo preferentially self-renewing symmetric divisions, resulting in daughter stem cells with reduced regenerative capacity and lymphoid potential, while young polar HSCs undergo preferentially asymmetric divisions. Mathematical modeling in combination with experimental data implies a mechanistic role of the asymmetric sorting of Cdc42 in determining the potential of daughter cells via epigenetic mechanisms. Therefore, molecules that control HSC polarity might serve as modulators of the mode of stem cell division regulating the potential of daughter cells.

Project description:Differentiation events contribute to cellular heterogeneity within tumors and influence disease progression and response to therapy. Here we dissect the mechanisms controlling intratumoral heterogeneity within basal-like breast cancers. We show that cancer cells can transition between a differentiation state related to that of normal luminal progenitors and a state closer to that of mature luminal cells, and that this occurs through asymmetric cell divisions. The Polycomb factor EZH2 and the Notch pathway act to increase the rates of symmetric divisions that produce progenitor-like cells, while the FOXA1 transcription factor promotes asymmetric divisions that reduce the numbers of such cells. Through functional screening, we identified a group of regulators that control cancer cell differentiation state and the relative proportions of tumor cell subpopulations. Our findings highlight the regulation of asymmetric cell divisions as a mechanism controlling intratumoral heterogeneity, and identify molecular pathways that control breast cancer cellular composition.
