A reversible epigenetic memory of inflammatory injury controls lineage plasticity and tumor initiation in the mouse pancreas [scRNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: Inflammation is essential to the disruption of tissue homeostasis and can destabilize the identity of lineage-committed epithelial cells. Here, we employ lineage-traced mouse models, single-cell transcriptomic and chromatin analyses, and CUT&TAG to identify an epigenetic memory of inflammatory injury in the pancreatic acinar cell compartment. Despite resolution of pancreatitis, our data show that acinar cells fail to return to their molecular baseline, with retention of elevated chromatin accessibility and H3K4me1 at metaplasia genes, such that memory represents an incomplete cell fate decision. In vivo, we find this epigenetic memory controls lineage plasticity, with diminished metaplasia in response to a second insult but increased tumorigenesis with an oncogenic Kras mutation. The lowered threshold for oncogenic transformation, in turn, can be restored by blockade of MAPK signaling. Together, we define the chromatin dynamics, molecular encoding, and recall of a prolonged epigenetic memory of inflammatory injury that impacts future responses but remains reversible.

An Epigenetic Memory of Inflammation Induces Context-Dependent Lineage Plasticity in the Pancreas with Divergent Phenotypic Outcomes [bulk ATAC-seq]

Project description:Inflammation is essential to the disruption of tissue homeostasis, and, in the pancreas, can destabilize the identity of terminally differentiated acinar cells. Herein we employ lineage-traced mouse models to delineate the chromatin dynamics that accompany the cycle of metaplasia and regeneration following pancreatitis, and unveil the presence of an epigenetic memory of inflammation in the pancreatic acinar cell compartment. We observe that despite histologic resolution of pancreatitis, acinar cells fail to return to their molecular baseline after several months, representing an incomplete cell fate decision. In vivo, this epigenetic memory controls lineage plasticity, with diminished metaplasia in response to a second inflammatory insult but increased tumorigenesis with an oncogenic Kras mutation. We demonstrate that both persistent chromatin and transcriptional changes constituting memory are recalled with oncogenic stress. Together, our findings define the dynamics and recall of an epigenetic memory of inflammation that impacts cell fate decisions in a context-dependent manner.

Loss of Activating Transcription Factor 3 reveals a distinct gene expression program modulating cell organization during pancreatitis.

Project description:Pancreatitis is triggered by environmental or cellular stress and is the leading contributor to pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. Altered gene expression in response to acinar cell stress determines the severity and duration of pancreatitis. However, it is unclear what factors contribute to this phenomenon. Here, we define a novel role for Activating Transcription Factor 3 (ATF3) during pancreatic injury. ATF3, a key mediator in the unfolded protein response, is robustly expressed in acinar cells during pancreatitis. Targeted deletion of Atf3 altered the molecular response to injury, with Atf3-/- acinar cells maintaining cell organization in response to cerulein, a well-established inducer of pancreatitis. Characterization of the mechanism using chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by Next Generation sequencing (ChIP-seq) identified 11,771 enrichment spots for ATF3, with known transcriptional start sites for >3,000 genes within 5 kb of ATF3 enrichment. Gene ontology analysis revealed a significant representation of ATF3 enrichment to genes affecting cell organization, including Mist1, a molecule required for establishing acinar cell organization. We confirmed a direct interaction of ATF3 to the Mist1 promoter during pancreatitis, and showed that ATF3 is required for altered Mist1 expression in response to injury. Finally, we demonstrate that ATF3 repression of Mist1 involves HDAC5. These findings suggest that ATF3 is a key transcriptional regulator during pancreatitis and promotes loss of the mature acinar cell phenotype in response to pancreatic injury. Two samples were produced from male mice 4 hours after CIP initiation from intraparitoneal injections of cerulein, a ChIP sample using an ATF3 antibody and an IP control.

RNA-Seq of pancreatic tissue from wt, KrasG12D, Pi3kCAH1047R and Mek1dd mice, at 10 weeks and after induction of acute pancreatitis

Project description:To investigate the underlying changes during acinar-to-ductal metaplasia induced by different oncogenes and by acute pancreatitis, pancreatic tissue was isolated from 10 week old control wt, KrasG12D, Pi3kCAH1047R and Mek1dd mice and from mice of the same genotypes after induction of acute pancreatitis.

Single-cell transcriptomics reveals a conserved metaplasia program in pancreatic injury

Project description:Acinar to ductal metaplasia (ADM) occurs in the pancreas in response to tissue injury and is a potential precursor for adenocarcinoma. We perfomed scRNAseq on lineage-traced cells resulting from acinar cells upon pancreas injury.

Epithelial memory of resolved inflammation limits tissue damage while promoting pancreatic tumorigenesis [scRNA-Seq]

Project description:Inflammation is a major risk factor for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). When occurring in the context of pancreatitis, mutations of KRAS accelerate tumor development. We discovered that long after its complete resolution, a transient inflammatory event primes pancreatic epithelial cells to subsequent transformation by oncogenic KRAS. Upon recovery from acute inflammation, epithelial cells of the pancreas display an enduring adaptive response associated with sustained transcriptional and epigenetic reprogramming. Such adaptation enables the prompt reactivation of acinar-to-ductal metaplasia (ADM) upon subsequent inflammatory events, thus efficiently limiting tissue damage via rapid decrease of zymogen production. We propose that since activating mutations of KRAS maintain an irreversible ADM, they may be beneficial and under strong positive selection in the context of recurrent pancreatitis.
