Temporal effects of BMP4 on mouse embryonic and extraembryonic development

ABSTRACT: The developing placenta, originated in the mouse through the extra-embryonic ectoderm (ExE), is essential for mammalian embryonic development. Yet, unbiased characterization of ExE differentiation dynamics and interaction with the embryo proper remains incomplete. Here, we develop a temporal single-cell model of mouse gastrulation that maps continuous and parallel differentiation in embryonic and extraembryonic lineages. This is matched with a 3-way perturbation approach to target signaling from the embryo proper, the ExE alone, or both. We show that ExE specification involves early spatial and transcriptional bifurcation of uncommitted ectoplacental cone cells (EPCs) and chorion progenitors. Early BMP4 signaling from chorion progenitors is required for proper differentiation of uncommitted EPCs and later for their specification towards trophoblast giant cells. We also find bi-phasic regulation by BMP4 in the embryo. The early ExE-originating BMP4 signal is necessary for proper endo-mesoderm bifurcation, allantois, and primordial germ cells (PGCs) specification. However, commencing at E7.5, embryonic-derived BMP4 source restricts PGC pool size by favoring differentiation of their extraembryonic mesoderm precursors towards an allantois fate. ExE and embryonic tissues are therefore entangled in time, space, and signaling axes, highlighting the importance of their integrated understanding and modeling in vivo and in vitro.

Single-cell mRNA sequencing of embryonic and extra-embryonic mesoderm and extra-embryonic structures in mouse embryo during gastrulation.

Project description:We performed scRNAseq on embryonic and extra-embryonic mesoderm cells from mouse embryo at Mid/Late Streak stage (Embryonic day 7.25) as well as on Late Bud stage (Embryonic day 7.75) microdissected amnion, chorion and allantois. We used transgenic embryos (Brachyury-Cre; mTmG) in which all mesoderm cells are converted to membrane-GFP upon Cre-mediated recombination and the rest express membrane Tomato. For all the samples, we identified clusters related to the localization in the tissue or the structures. Those results provide an atlas of early stages of morphogenesis of the maternal-fetal interface.

A lineage commitment checkpoint in early ILC development [single cell RNA-seq]

Project description:Understanding how cellular function is imprinted during development requires the identification of factors controlling lineage specification and commitment, and the intermediate progenitors in which they act. Using population level and single cell approaches, we examine transcriptional and functional heterogeneity within early innate lymphoid cells (ILC) progenitors. We identify a developmental bifurcation toward dendritic cell fate that reveals the uncommitted state of early specified ILC progenitors. We subsequently characterize an ILC-commitment checkpoint controlled by the transcription factor TCF-1. The present study reveals unexpected heterogeneity within early innate progenitor populations, and characterizes lineage infidelity that accompanies early ILC specification prior to commitment.

Isl1 identifies the extraembryonic mesodermal / allantois progenitors and required for placenta morphogenesis and vasculature formation [RNA-Seq]

Project description:The transcription factor Isl1 is expressed in the progenitors of the Ex-Mes and allantois, however its role in the placentation remains unclear. Our studies showed that deletion of Isl1 causes defects in allantois growth, chorioallantoic fusion and placenta vessel morphogenesis. RNA-seq analyses have revealed that Isl1 regulates the expression of genes important for Ex-Mes multipotency, differentiation and diversification. Isl1 promotes allantoic endothelial but inhibits mesenchymal cell differentiation. Isl1 plays an important role in regulating multiple genetic and epigenetic pathways of vascular morphogenesis. Allantoic signals regulated by Isl1 in turn mediate the inductive interactions between the allantois and chorion critical for chorionic epithelium differentiation, villous formation, and labyrinth angiogenesis. In conclusion, our study provides an integrated insight into the mechanisms underlying placental lineage differentiation, diversification, and vascular formation, highlighting the necessity of Isl1 for early placenta morphogenesis. Our study suggests the potential utility of Isl1 in regenerative medicine application using the stem cells derived from the placenta, umbilical cord and amnionic membrane.

A Mesodermal Factor, T (BRACHYURY), specifies mouse germ cell fate by directly activating germline determinants.

Project description:The germ cell lineage ensures reproduction and heredity in metazoans. Primordial germ cells (PGCs) in mice are induced in pluripotent epiblast cells by BMP4 and WNT3, yet their mechanism of action remains elusive. Here, using in vitro PGC specification system, we show that WNT3, but not BMP4, induces many transcription factors associated with mesoderm in epiblast-like cells (EpiLCs) through beta-CATENIN. Among these, T (BRACHYURY), a classical and conserved mesodermal factor, was essential for robust activation of Blimp1 and Prdm14, two of the germline determinants. T, but not SMAD1 or beta-CATENIN/TCF1, binds distinct regulatory elements of both Blimp1 and Prdm14, and directly up-regulates these genes without BMP4 and WNT3. Without BMP4, a program induced by WNT3 prevents T from activating Blimp1 and Prdm14, demonstrating that BMP4 is permissive for PGC specification. These findings establish a fundamental role of a mesodermal gene in PGC specification, a potentially evolutionarily conserved mechanism across metazoans. Wnt3 (+/+) and Wnt3 (-/-) mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) bearing the BV transgenes expressing membrane-targeted Venus under the control of Blimp1 regulatory elements (Blimp1-mVenus: BV; PMID 18583473) were established and maintained. Epiblast-like cells (EpiLCs) were then induced from the established ES lines, followed by the cytokine stimulation (No cytokines [negative control], BMP4, Wnt3a, BMP4+Wnt3a) for different periods (0h, 12h, 24h, 36h).

FGF inhibition directs BMP4-mediated differentiation of Human Embryonic Stem Cells to syncytiotrophoblast

Project description:Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling is known to support differentiation of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) into mesoderm and extraembryonic lineages, whereas other signaling pathways can largely influence this lineage specification. Here, we set out to reinvestigate the influence of ACTIVIN/NODAL and fibroblast growth factor (FGF) pathways on the lineage choices made by hESCs during BMP4-driven differentiation. We show that BMP activation, coupled with inhibition of both ACTIVIN/NODAL and FGF signaling, induces differentiation of hESCs, specifically to M-NM-2hCG hormone-secreting multinucleated syncytiotrophoblast and does not support induction of embryonic and extraembryonic lineages, extravillous trophoblast, and primitive endoderm. It has been previously reported that FGF2 can switch BMP4-induced hESC differentiation outcome to mesendoderm. Here, we show that FGF inhibition alone, or in combination with either ACTIVIN/NODAL inhibition or BMP activation, supports hESC differentiation to hCG-secreting syncytiotrophoblast. We show that the inhibition of the FGF pathway acts as a key in directing BMP4-mediated hESC differentiation to syncytiotrophoblast. Human embryonic Stem Cells (hESCs) were treated under defined conditions (N2B27) with BMP4 (B), SB431542 (SB) (ACTIVIN/NODAL inhibitor), SU5402 (SU) (FGFR1 inhibitor), FGF2 (F) either alone or in various combinations as mentioned, followed by isolation of total RNA.

Chromatin remodeler Brahma safeguards labile canalization of cardiac mesoderm differentiation

Project description:Differentiation proceeds along a continuum of increasingly fate-restricted intermediates, referred to as canalization. Canalization is essential for stabilizing cell fate, but mechanisms underlying robust canalization are unclear. Here we show that the BRG1/BRM-associated factor (BAF) chromatin remodeling complex ATPase gene Brm safeguards cell identity during directed cardiogenesis of mouse embryonic stem cells. Despite establishment of well-differentiated precardiac mesoderm, Brm-null cells predominantly became neural precursors, violating germ layer assignment. Trajectory inference showed sudden acquisition of non-mesodermal identity in Brm-null cells, consistent with a new transition state referred to as a saddle-node bifurcation. Mechanistically, loss of Brm prevented de novo accessibility of cardiac enhancers while increasing expression of neurogenic factor POU3F1, preventing expression of neural suppressor REST, and disrupting composition of BRG1 complexes. Brm mutant identity switch was overcome by increasing BMP4 levels during mesoderm induction. Mathematical modeling supports all our observations. In the mouse embryo, Brm deletion exacerbated mesoderm-deleted Brg1 mutant phenotypes, severely compromising cardiogenesis, unmasking an in vivo role for Brm. Our results reveal Brm as a compensable safeguard of the fidelity of mesoderm chromatin states, and support a model in which developmental canalization is not a rigid irreversible path, but a highly plastic trajectory.

BMP4 triggers regulatory circuits specifying the cardiac mesoderm lineage

Project description:Cardiac lineage specification in the mouse is controlled by TGFβ and WNT signaling. From fly to fish, BMP has been identified as an indispensable heart inducer. A detailed analysis of the role of Bmp4 and its effectors Smad1/5, however, was still missing. We show that Bmp4 induces cardiac mesoderm formation in murine embryonic stem cells in vitro. Bmp4 first activates Wnt3 and upregulates Nodal. pSmad1/5 and the WNT effector Tcf3 form a complex, and together with pSmad2/3 activate mesoderm enhancers and Eomes. They then cooperate with Eomes to consolidate the expression of many mesoderm factors, including T. Eomes and T form a positive feedback loop and open additional enhancers regulating early mesoderm genes, including the transcription factor Mesp1 establishing the cardiac mesoderm lineage. In parallel, the neural fate is suppressed. Our data confirm the pivotal role of Bmp4 in cardiac mesoderm formation in the mouse. We describe in detail the consecutive and cooperative actions of three signaling pathways, BMP, WNT and Nodal, and their effector transcription factors, during cardiac mesoderm specification.
