Transcriptional effects of VIP on murine intestinal stem cells

ABSTRACT: In our study, we investigated the effect of Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) on murine intestinal stem cell (ISC) activity and differentiation in homeostatic conditions and following irradiation-induced injury. We utilized a model of murine intestinal organoids and observed that VIP promotes epithelial differentiation towards a secretory phenotype predominantly via the p38 MAPK pathway. Moreover, VIP prominently modulates epithelial proliferation as well as the number and proliferative activity of Lgr5-EGFP+ ISC under homeostatic conditions. Further analysis revealed that in vitro acute irradiation injury renders Lgr5-EGFP+ ISC even more susceptible to modulations by VIP, which results in the strong promotion of epithelial regeneration by VIP. Finally, these effects by VIP translate into an in vivo model of abdominal irradiation, where VIP was shown to prominently mitigate radiation-induced injury. Taken together, our findings indicate a prominent role of VIP in modulating ISC behavior in intestinal homeostasis and its potential to promote intestinal regeneration following acute irradiation injury.

Isthmus progenitor cells contribute to homeostatic cellular turnover and support regeneration following intestinal injury

Project description:The currently accepted intestinal epithelial cell organization model equates crypt base columnar (CBC) cells, marked by high levels of Lgr5 expression, with the intestinal stem cell (ISC). However, recent intestinal regeneration studies have uncovered limitations of the ‘Lgr5-CBC’ model, leading to two major views: one favoring the presence of a quiescent reserve stem cell population, the other calling for differentiated cell plasticity. To test if an alternative model may help reconcile these perspectives, we studied the hierarchical organization of crypt epithelial cells in an unbiased fashion, by combining high-resolution, single-cell profiling and lineage tracing in multiple transgenic mouse models. These show that Lgr5 is not a specific ISC marker; rather, cells located in the crypt isthmus, which include Lgr5low cells, comprise the ISCs that sustain tissue homeostasis. Following irradiation or intestinal injury, surviving ISCs and progenitors, but not differentiated cells, participate in intestinal regeneration, suggesting that neither de-differentiation nor reserve stem cell populations are drivers of intestinal regeneration. Our results provide a novel viewpoint for the intestinal crypt epithelium, in which ISCs localize to the crypt isthmus, and ISC potential is restricted to stem and progenitor cells.

Lymphatic endothelial cells, together with Rspo3+Grem1+ fibroblasts, support intestinal stem cells through the production of R-spondin3 in homeostasis and injury [scRNAseq]

Project description:Intestinal stem cells (ISCs) depend on niche factors for proper function. Here, we focus on RSPO3, an essential ISC niche factor, that engages the Lgr5 receptor on ISCs to potentiate WNT signaling, an interaction that is critical for maintaining intestinal stemness. Leveraging novel Rspo3-GFP and Grem1-tdTomato-CreERT2 genetically engineered mice together with single-cell mRNA profiling, we find that RSPO3 is expressed by lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) and Rspo3+Grem1+ (RG) fibroblasts in the intestinal stroma where RG fibroblasts surround lymphatics and are in close proximity to Lgr5+ ISCs near the crypt base. Functionally, RG fibroblasts through the production of RSPO3 and GREM1 and LECs through the production of RSPO3 foster intestinal organoid propagation in vitro. Rspo3 loss in either or both of these niche cells in vivo compromises ISC numbers, villi length, and repair after irradiation-induced injury. Mechanistically, irradiation-induced damage expands LEC and RG fibroblast numbers and enhances the latters’ generation of RSPO3 through IL-1 receptor activation. We propose that LECs represent a novel component of the ISC niche, which together with RG fibroblasts, provide essential RSPO3 to sustain ISCs in homeostasis and regeneration.

FZD5 is an essential regulator of intestinal crypt homeostasis and surrogate Wnt agonist response

Project description:The rapid regeneration of the small intestinal epithelium is sustained by crypt intestinal stem cells (ISCs). Wnt/b-catenin signaling is essential for intestinal crypt homeostasis and maintenance of Lgr5+ ISC, and yet no single or combinatorial knockout of Frizzled (FZD) genes, representing Wnt receptors, has phenocopied the severe intestinal epithelial effects of Wnt signaling blockade. The elusive identification of specific Frizzled (Fzd) receptor(s) underlying homeostatic proliferation and ISC function would greatly inform therapeutic mucosal repair strategies. In prior pharmacologic studies, bioengineered antagonists that block Wnt binding to both FZD5 and FZD8 receptors induced lethal crypt and villus loss, implicating FZD5 and/or FZD8 as essential for ISCs maintenance. Here, the potential function of Fzd5 in during intestinal homeostasis was examined by epithelial-specific Fzd5 ko, which rapidly elicited lethal pan-intestinal crypt and villus loss, and by Lgr5-specific Fzd5 cKO, which strongly reduced Lgr5+ ISC while inducing their premature differentiation. In parallel, Fzd5 cKO potently repressed Wnt target gene expression, with phenotypic rescue by constitutive activation of b-catenin in vivo and confirmation upon in vitro organoid culture. Fzd5 cKO but not Fzd8 cKO in organoids ablated responsiveness to dual specificity bioengineered FZD5/FZD8-selective Wnt surrogate agonists, which reversed DSS-induced colitis phenotypes in both wild-type and Fzd8 cKO mice. Overall, our results implicate the FZD5 receptor as an essential regulator of crypt homeostasis, Lgr5+ ISCs and intestinal response to bioengineered Wnt surrogate agonists.

Characterization of radioresistant epithelial stem cell heterogeneity in the damaged mouse intestine

Project description:The small intestine has a robust regenerative capacity, and various cell types serve as “cells-of-origin” in the epithelial regeneration process after injury. However, how much each population contributes to regeneration remains unclear. Using lineage tracing, we found that Lgr5-expressing cells’ derivatives contained radioresistant ISCs crucial for epithelial regeneration in the damaged intestine after radiation. Single-cell RNA sequencing analysis of Lgr5-derivatives identified primary source of epithelial regeneration in the irradiation damaged intetsine.

Wnt/planar cell polarity primed intestinal stem cells directly differentiate into enteroendocrine or Paneth cells [MoGene-2_0-st]

Project description:Imbalance in intestinal stem cell (ISC) homeostasis leads to cancer and metabolic disease. Therefore intense efforts are underway to understand ISC hierarchy and the niche signals that control stem cell fate. Several ISC populations have been described according to their marker expression, cell-cycle behavior and lineage potential. Actively cycling Lgr5+ ISCs ensure homeostatic renewal. A less well-defined and minor population of quiescent and label-retaining cells (LRCs) is viewed as a reserve stem cell pool. However, the existence of quiescent stem cells distinct from the Lgr5+ ISCs is controversial. Indeed, recent findings identified quiescent intestinal cells as a subpopulation of Lgr5+ ISCs that are committed to the secretory fate, but the signals that maintain and activate quiescent cells/LRCs remain elusive.

Postnatal epigenetic development of mouse intestinal stem cells

Project description:We used unbiased whole genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS) to identify DNA methylation changes in the intestinal stem cells (ISCs) or their progeny during the suckling period of mouse colon development. Lgr5-EGFP mice were used to identify ISC populations in the colons. WGBS were performed using EGFP labeled Lgr5+ ISCs and epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) labeled epithelial cells isolated at the beginning and end of the suckling period (postnatal day 0-P0 and P21).

STAT1 regulates immune-mediated intestinal stem cell proliferation and epithelial regeneration

Project description:The role of the immune system in regulating tissue stem cells remains poorly understood, as does the relationship between immune-mediated tissue damage and regeneration. Graft vs. host disease (GVHD) occurring after allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (allo-BMT) involves immune-mediated damage to the intestinal epithelium and its stem cell compartment. To assess impacts of T-cell-driven injury on distinct epithelial constituents, we performed single cell RNA sequencing on intestinal crypts following experimental BMT. Intestinal stem cells (ISCs) from GVHD mice exhibited global transcriptomic changes associated with a substantial Interferon-γ response and upregulation of STAT1. To determine its role in crypt function, STAT1 was deleted within murine intestinal epithelium. Following allo-BMT, STAT1 deficiency resulted in reduced epithelial proliferation and impaired ISC recovery. Similarly, epithelial Interferon-γ receptor deletion also attenuated proliferation and ISC recovery post-transplant. Investigating the mechanistic basis underlying this epithelial response, ISC STAT1 expression in GVHD was found to correlate with upregulation of ISC c-Myc. Furthermore, activated T cells stimulated Interferon-γ- dependent epithelial regeneration in co-cultured organoids, and Interferon-γ directly induced STAT1-dependent c-Myc expression and ISC proliferation. These findings illustrate immunologic regulation of a core tissue stem cell program after damage and support a role for Interferon-γ as a direct contributor to epithelial regeneration.
