Specific 3-O-sulfated heparan sulfate domains regulate salivary gland basement membrane metabolism and epithelial differentiation [female]

ABSTRACT: FGF signaling is essential for salivary gland (SG) development and heparan sulfate (HS) regulation of FGFR function is determined by immense structural diversity of sulfated HS domains. The basement membrane (BM), containing HS proteoglycans, collagens and laminins, separates epithelia from stroma and controls growth factor-matrix cross-talk. 3-O-sulfotransferases generate highly 3-O-sulfated HS domains (3-O-HS) and Hs3st3a1 and Hs3st3b1 are enriched in myoepithelial cells (MECs), which produce BM and are a growth factor signaling hub. To investigate 3-O-HS regulation of MEC function and growth factor signaling, we generated Hs3st3a1;Hs3st3b1 double knockout (DKO) mice. The DKO HS loses specific highly 3-O-sulfated tetrasaccharides, which increases FGF/FGFR-complex binding to HS. During development this leads to increased FGFR-, BM- and MEC-related gene expression. However, in adult DKO SGs the secretory units containing acinar and MECs, have reduced MECs, increased BM and disrupted acinar polarity, resulting in salivary hypofunction. We used defined 3-O-sulfated-HS in FGFR pulldown assays and primary organ cultures to investigate 3-O-HS-dependent mechanisms regulating MEC development. We find that 3-O-HS modulates FGFR signaling to regulate MEC BM synthesis which is critical for secretory unit homeostasis and acinar function. Understanding how sulfated HS regulates development will inform the use of HS mimetics in organ regeneration.

Neurotrophin signaling is a central mechanism of salivary dysfunction after irradiation that disrupts myoepithelial differentiation

Project description:The mechanisms that prevent regeneration of irradiated (IR) salivary glands remain elusive. Bulk RNAseq of IR versus non-IR human salivary glands showed that neurotrophin signaling is highly disrupted post-radiation. Moreover, neurotrophin receptors (NTRs) are significantly upregulated in myoepithelial cells (MECs) post-IR, and scRNAseq revealed that MECs are a main source of neurotrophin ligands. Using two ex vivo models, we show that nerve growth factor (NGF) is essential for MEC differentiation during development, whereas upregulation of NTRs in adult MECs is associated with differentiation defects. The latter morphological abnormalities were confirmed in MECs of human IR glands. As MECs are required for proper acinar cell contraction and secretion, we propose that MEC-specific upregulation of NTRs post-IR disrupts MEC differentiation and potentially hinders the ability of the gland to regenerate.

Heparan Sulfation Dependent FGF Signalling Maintains ES Cells Primed for Differentiation in a Heterogeneous State

Project description:Embryonic stem (ES) cells continuously decide whether to maintain pluripotency or differentiate. While exogenous LIF and BMP4 perpetuate a pluripotent state, less is known about factors initiating differentiation. We show that heparan sulfate (HS) proteoglycans are critical co-receptors for signals inducing ES cell differentiation. Genetic targeting of NDST1 and 2, two enzymes required for N-sulfation of proteoglycans, blocked differentiation. This phenotype was rescued by HS presented in trans or by soluble heparin. NaClO3-, which reduces sulfation of proteoglycans, potently blocked differentiation of wild type cells. Mechanistically, N-sulfation was identified to be critical for functional autocrine FGF4 signalling. Micro array analysis identified the pluripotency maintaining transcription factors Nanog, KLF2/4/8, Tbx3 and Tcf3 to be negatively regulated, whereas markers of differentiation such as Gbx2, Dnmt3b, FGF5 and Brachyury were induced by sulfation-dependent-FGFR signalling. We show that several of these genes are heterogeneously expressed in ES cells and targeting of heparan sulfation or FGFR-signalling facilitated a homogenous Nanog/KLF4/Tbx3 positive ES cell state. This finding suggests that the recently discovered heterogeneous state of ES cells is regulated by HS-dependent FGFR signalling. Similarly, culturing blastocysts with NaClO3- eliminated GATA6 positive primitive endoderm progenitors generating a homogenous Nanog positive inner cell mass. Functionally, reduction of sulfation robustly improved de novo ES cell derivation efficiency. We conclude that N-sulfated HS is required for FGF4 signalling to maintain ES cells primed for differentiation in a heterogeneous state. Inhibiting this pathway facilitates a more naÃ¯ve ground state. Four groups with three biological replicates and a technical duplicate in each

Loss of 3-O-sulfotransferase enzymes, Hs3st3a1 and Hs3st3b1, reduces kidney and glomerular size and disrupts glomerular architecture

Project description:Heparan sulfate (HS) is an important component of the kidney anionic filtration barrier, the glomerular basement membrane (GBM). HS chains attached to proteoglycan protein cores are modified by sulfotransferases in a highly ordered series of biosynthetic steps resulting in immense structural diversity due to negatively charged sulfate modifications. 3-O-sulfation is the least abundant modification generated by a family of seven isoforms but creates the most highly sulfated HS domains. We analyzed the kidney phenotypes in the Hs3st3a1, Hs3st3b1 and Hs3st6 -knockout (KO) mice, the isoforms enriched in kidney podocytes. Individual KO mice show no overt kidney phenotype, although Hs3st3b1 kidneys were smaller than wildtype (WT). Furthermore, Hs3st3a1-/-; Hs3st3b1-/- double knockout (DKO) kidneys were smaller but also had a reduction in glomerular size relative to wildtype (WT). Mass spectrometry analysis of kidney HS showed reduced 3-O-sulfation in Hs3st3a1-/- and Hs3st3b1-/-, but not in Hs3st6-/- kidneys. Glomerular HS showed reduced HS staining and reduced ligand-and-carbohydrate engagement (LACE) assay, a tool that detects changes in binding of growth factor receptor-ligand complexes to HS. Interestingly, DKO mice have increased levels of blood urea nitrogen, although no differences were detected in urinary levels of albumin, creatinine and nephrin. Finally, transmission electron microscopy showed irregular and thickened GBM and podocyte foot process effacement in the DKO compared to WT. Together, our data suggest that loss of 3-O-HS domains disrupts the kidney glomerular architecture without affecting the glomerular filtration barrier and overall kidney function.

EFFECTS OF IDURSULFASE® TREATMENT ON EXTRACELLULAR MATRIX COMPONENTS, INTRACELLULAR SIGNALING AND PROLIFERATION/DIFFERENTIATION REGULATION IN CALVARIA-DERIVED BONE TISSUE OF APERT SYNDROME PATIENTS

Project description:Experimental in vtiro approach to molecular pathways implicated in Apert Syndrome’s craniosynostosis through transcriptomics techniques. FGFR2 activation requires a tridimensional configuration between ligand, receptor and heparan sulfate(HS). Mutations in the extracellular region of this receptor affect the balance between proliferation and differentiation of osteoprogenitor cells, leading to craniosynostosis as Apert Syndrome (AS). We postulate that the degradation of HS in periosteal tissue in patients with AS can modify the gene expression profile and modulate cell behavior. Based on previous evidence we propose that the treatment with an enzyme that degrades HS, as Idursulfase, in periosteal tissue of patients with AS, could be affect the formation of the ternary complex (FGF / FGFR / HS), triggering changes in gene profiles expression in several molecular pathways, regarding their basal state with the mutated receptor.

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.

High number of chromosomal copy number aberrations inversely relates to t(11;19)(q21;p13) translocation status in Mucoepidermoid Carcinoma of the Salivary Glands

Project description:genomic analysis using arrayCGH to gain insight into chromosomal copy number in mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC). Results suggest that two types of MECs can be distinguished: (i) a group of MECs without t(11;19)(q21;p13) translocation with many copy number aberrations (> 6), independent of histological grade, and (ii) a group of MECs with the t(11;19)(q21;p13) translocation with no or a few copy number aberrations (<6 ) with two exceptions classified as low and intermediate grade.

A genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9 screen reveals KDM2B as a modifier of protein binding to heparan sulfate

Project description:Heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs) are expressed on virtually all animal cells and are involved in many important biological processes. Each HSPG consists of a core protein with one or more covalently attached linear heparan sulfate (HS) chains composed of alternating glucosamine and uronic acids that are heterogeneously N- and O-sulfated. The arrangement and orientation of the sulfated sugar residues of HS specify the location of distinct ligand binding sites on the cell surface, and these modifications can vary temporally during development and spatially across tissues. While most of the enzymes involved in HS biosynthesis have been studied extensively, much less information exists regarding the specific mechanisms that give rise to the variable composition and binding properties of HS.
