ABSTRACT: In order to understand gene regulation of epithelial cells in the mouse mammary gland, we have generated a comprehensive epigenetic atlas from freshly sorted myoepithelial (basal), luminal progenitor (LP) and mature luminal (ML) from adult mice (9 week-old) encompassing gene expression profiling, histone and polymerase II CUT&Tag sequencing, chromatin accessibility via ATAC-seq and chromatin interactions. We further studied the basal compartment by sorting to additional cell type population: Tspan8+ (quiescent basal, QBa) and Tspan8- (active basal, ABa) cells.

We further studied the basal compartment by sorting to additional cell type population: Tspan8+ (quiescent basal, QBa) and Tspan8- (active basal, ABa) cells. We then performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RNA-seq of 2 different cell types Tspan8+ and Tspan8- cells.

We then performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RNA-seq of 3 different cell types.
Project description:Differentiation of stem cells embedded within the mammary epithelium is orchestrated by lineage-specifying transcription factors. Unlike the well-defined luminal hierarchy, dissection of the basal lineage has been hindered by a lack of specific markers. Inhibitor of Differentiation 4 (ID4) is a basally-restricted helix-loop-helix (HLH) transcription factor essential for mammary development. Here we show that ID4 is highly expressed in basal stem cells and decreases during myoepithelial differentiation. By integrating transcriptomic, proteomic and chromatin-association data we reveal that ID4 is required to suppress myoepithelial gene expression and cell fate.
Project description:In this study we mapped H3K27me3, H3K4me3 and H3K9me2 marks in three mammary epithelial subsets: MaSC/basal (MS), luminal progenitor (LP) and mature luminal (ML) in the steady-state. In addition, profiles were generated for H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 marks in the MaSC/basal and luminal populations from the glands of ovariectomized or mid-pregnant (12.5 days) mice as well as from control virgin mice.

We used ChIPseq analysis to determine histone modification marks in the MS, LP and ML subsets in the steady-state. We then determined the histone modification profiles of MS and sorted luminal (Lum) cells from pregnant (12.5 dP) or ovariectomized (OVX) mice and compared these with the profiles of control virgin mice in order to study the effect of hormones on the mammary epigenomes.
