Chromatin Landscape Instructs Precise Transcription Factor Regulome during Embryonic Lineage Specification [RNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: Embryos originate from fertilized eggs and are shaped through continuous cell division and differentiation, accompanied by dramatic changes in transcription, translation, and metabolism. Epigenetic information and transcription factors (TFs) play indispensable roles in regulating these processes. Recently, the trophoblast regulator TFAP2C was found to be essential in initiating the earliest cell fate decisions. However, Tfap2c transcripts are still detectable in both the inner cell mass (ICM) and trophectoderm (TE) of blastocysts, raising questions regarding how TFAP2C functions once these two lineages are established. In this study, we delineated the dynamics of TFAP2C during the mouse peri-implantation stage and elucidated its collaboration with the key lineage regulators CDX2 and NANOG. Importantly, we proposed that de novo formation of H3K9me3 in the extraembryonic ectoderm during implantation antagonizes TFAP2C binding to crucial developmental genes, thereby maintaining its lineage identity. Together, this research highlights the plasticity of the epigenetic environment in designating the genomic binding of highly adaptable lineage-specific TFs and regulating embryonic cell fates.

Chromatin Landscape Instructs Precise Transcription Factor Regulome during Embryonic Lineage Specification [CUT&RUN]

Project description:Embryos, originating from fertilized eggs, undergo continuous cell division and differentiation, accompanied by dramatic changes in transcription, translation, and metabolism. Epigenetic information and transcription factors (TFs) play indispensable roles in regulating these processes. Recently, the trophoblast regulator TFAP2C was identified as crucial in initiating early cell fate decisions. However, Tfap2c transcripts persist in both the inner cell mass (ICM) and trophectoderm (TE) of blastocysts, prompting inquiry into its function in post-lineage establishment. In this study, we delineate the dynamics of TFAP2C during the mouse peri-implantation stage and elucidate its collaboration with the key lineage regulators CDX2 and NANOG. Importantly, we propose that de novo formation of H3K9me3 in the extraembryonic ectoderm during implantation antagonizes TFAP2C binding to crucial developmental genes, thereby maintaining its lineage identity.

Landscape of TFs binding in mouse early embryos [RNA-seq]

Project description:In mammals, early lineage specification originates from the establishment of cell polarization in early embryos, before providing the foundation for all somatic development. Although there have been heated debates about whether transcription factors (TFs) or epigenetic information plays the dominant role in cell fate decisions, the precise annotation of TFs remains largely elusive in early embryos, restricting the functional study of developmentally important TFs. Here, we investigated the genome-wide landscapes of two known triggers of mouse embryo polarization: transcription factor AP-2 gamma (Tfap2c) and TEA domain transcription factor 4 (Tead4). We found that Tfap2c can bridge the connection between the promoter and the proximal enhancer, and further facilitate the functions of downstream Tead4 and Klf5 in boosting polarization. Our study also implicated that Rarg-initiated active demethylation might be a prerequisite for proper Tfap2c functioning. Furthermore, the results demonstrated that both genomic imprinting and nucleotide polymorphism can instruct TF binding, leading to allele-specific expression in early embryos. Overall, our study characterized TF dynamics during the peri-implantation stage and revealed their spatiotemporal interactions with the epigenetic environment in driving polarization and lineage specification.

Lineage regulators TFAP2C and NR5A2 function as bipotency activators in totipotent embryos

Project description:During the first lineage segregation, a mammalian totipotent embryo differentiates into inner cell mass (ICM) and trophectoderm (TE). However, how transcription factors (TFs) regulate this earliest cell fate decision in vivo remains elusive, with their regulomes primarily inferred from cultured cells. Here, we investigated the TF regulomes during the first mouse lineage specification across 6 stages, spanning the pre-initiation, initiation, commitment, and maintenance phases. Unexpectedly, we found TFAP2C, a trophoblast regulator, bound and activated both early TE and ICM genes at the totipotent (2-8-cell) stages (“bipotency activation”). Tfap2c deficiency caused downregulation of early ICM genes, including Nanog, Nr5a2, Tdgf1, and early TE genes, including Tfeb and Itgb5 in 8-cell embryos. Transcription defects in both ICM and TE lineages were also found in blastocysts, accompanied by increased apoptosis and reduced cell numbers in ICMs. Upon trophoblast commitment, TFAP2C left early-ICM genes but acquired binding to late-TE genes in blastocysts where it co-bound with CDX2, and later to extra-embryonic ectoderm (ExE) genes where it cooperatively co-occupied with the former ICM regulator SOX2. Finally, “bipotency activation” in totipotent embryos also applied to a pluripotency regulator NR5A2 which similarly bound and activated both ICM and TE lineage genes at the 8-cell stage. These data reveal a unique transcription circuity of totipotency underpinned by highly adaptable lineage regulators.
