Tracking and mitigating imprint erasure during induction of naïve human pluripotency at single-cell resolution [Bisulfite-Seq]

ABSTRACT: Naïve human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) model the pre-implantation epiblast. However, parent-specific epigenetic marks (imprints) are eroded in naïve hPSCs, which represents an important deviation from the epiblast in vivo. To track the dynamics of imprint erasure during naïve resetting in real time, we established a dual-colored fluorescent reporter at both alleles of the imprinted SNRPN locus. During primed-to-naïve resetting, SNRPN expression becomes biallelic in most naïve cells and biallelic SNRPN expression is irreversible upon re-priming. We utilized this live-cell reporter to evaluate chemical and genetic strategies to minimize imprint erasure. Decreasing the level of MEK/ERK inhibition or overexpressing the KRAB zinc finger protein ZFP57 protected a subset of imprints during naïve resetting. Combining these two strategies protected imprint levels to a further extent than either strategy alone. This study offers an experimental tool to track and enhance imprint stability during transitions between human pluripotent states in vitro.

Replication-coupled passive DNA demethylation for the erasure of genome imprints in mice

Project description:Genome-wide DNA demethylation, including the erasure of genome imprints, in primordial germ cells (PGCs), is critical as a first step for creating the totipotent epigenome in the germ line. Here, we provide evidence that contrary to the prevailing model involving active DNA demethylation, imprint erasure in mouse PGCs occurs in a manner consistent with replication-coupled passive DNA demethylation: PGCs erase imprints during their rapid proliferation with little de novo as well as maintenance DNA methylation potential and no major chromatin alterations. Our findings necessitate the re-evaluation of and provide novel insights into the mechanism of genome-wide DNA demethylation in PGCs. We performed expression analysis of primordial germ cells (PGCs) at embryonic days 10.5-13.5. Because the number of PGCs available at these stages were low, cDNAs were amplified by the method that we previously published (Kurimoto et al. 2006, NAR 34: e42 (PMID 16547197)). To include analysis of PGC gene expression at E9.5, we re-normalized the data from our E9.5 PGC samples (GSM744103, GSM744104) from our previous publication (Hayashi et al., 2011, Cell 146: 519-32 (PMD 21820164)) together with the data from this submission.

Reversion to naïve human pluripotency creates a new methylation landscape devoid of blastocyst or germline memory

Project description:Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) typically exhibit "primed" pluripotency, analogous to stem cells derived from the mouse post-implantation epiblast. This has led to a search for growth conditions that support self-renewal of hESCs akin to hypomethylated naïve epiblast cells in human pre-implantation embryos. We have discovered that reverting primed hESCs to a hypomethylated naïve state or deriving a new hESC line under naïve conditions results in the establishment of Stage Specific Embryonic Antigen 4 (SSEA4) negative hESC lines with a transcriptional program resembling the human pre-implantation epiblast. In contrast, we discovered that the methylome of naïve hESCs in vitro is distinct from the human epiblast in vivo with loss of DNA methylation at primary imprints and a lost "memory" of the methylation state of the human oocyte. This failure to recover the naïve epiblast methylation landscape appears to be a consistent feature of self-renewing hypomethylated naïve hESCs in vitro.

Epigenetic dynamics during capacitation of naïve human pluripotent stem cells [PBAT]

Project description:Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) are of fundamental relevance in regenerative medicine and the primary source for many novel cellular therapies. The development of naïve culture conditions has led to the expectation that these naïve hPSCs could overcome some of the limitations found in conventional (primed) hPSCs culture conditions, including recurrent epigenetic anomalies. Recent work has shown that transition to the primed state (or capacitation) is necessary for naïve hPSCs to acquire multi-lineage differentiation competence. This pluripotent state transition may recapitulate essential features of human peri-implantation development. Here we studied epigenetic changes during the transition between naïve and primed pluripotency, examining global genomic redistribution of histone modifications, chromatin accessibility, and DNA methylation, and correlating these with gene expression. We identify CpG islands, enhancers, and retrotransposons as hotspots of epigenetic dynamics between pluripotency states. Our results further reveal that hPSC resetting and subsequent capacitation rescue X chromosome-linked epigenetic erosion and reduce the ectoderm-biased gene expression of conventional primed hPSCs.

Generation of human oogonia from induced pluripotent stem cells in vitro

Project description:Human in vitro gametogenesis may transform reproductive medicine. Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) have been induced into primordial germ cell-like cells (hPGCLCs); however, further differentiation to a mature germ cell has not been achieved. Here, we show that hPGCLCs differentiate progressively into oogonia-like cells during a long-term in vitro culture (approximately 4 months) in xenogeneic reconstituted ovaries with mouse embryonic ovarian somatic cells. The hPGCLC-derived oogonia display hallmarks of epigenetic reprogramming-genome-wide DNA demethylation, imprint erasure, and extinguishment of aberrant DNA methylation in hPSCs-and acquire an immediate precursory state for meiotic recombination. Furthermore, the inactive X chromosome shows a progressive demethylation and reactivation, albeit partially. These findings establish the germline competence of hPSCs and provide a critical step toward human in vitro gametogenesis.

Transposable element activity captures human pluripotent cell states [ATAC-seq]

Project description:Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) serve as powerful in vitro models to elucidate the molecular underpinnings of embryonic cell fate transitions. hPSCs can be maintained in two distinct states: a naïve state, corresponding to the pre-implantation epiblast, and a primed state, mirroring the post-implantation epiblast. Our research demonstrates that transposable elements act as sensitive indicators of these pluripotency states. We engineered hPSCs with fluorescent reporters that capture the temporal expression dynamics of two transposable elements, LTR5_Hs and MER51B. This dual reporter system facilitates real-time monitoring and isolation of stem cells as they transition from naïve to primed pluripotency and further towards differentiation. Unexpectedly, we identified a rare, metastable cell population within primed hPSCs, marked by transcripts associated with pre-implantation embryo development and triggered by DNA damage. Additionally, our system uncovered novel transcriptional regulators involved in pluripotency, naïve reprogramming, and differentiation. Our study provides key insights into the dynamic regulation of transposable elements during embryonic development and introduces a novel system for investigating and exploiting cellular plasticity.
