Gene expression profiles of induced multipotent germline stem cells and other pluripotent stem cells

ABSTRACT: Spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) have pluripotent potential. However, frequency of pluripotent cell derivation is low and the mechanism of culture-induced reprogramming remains unknown. Here we report that epigenetic instability of germline stem (GS) cells, cultured SSCs, induces pluripotent cell derivation. GS cells undergo DNA demethylation in H19 differentially methylated region under low-density culture. When H19 demethylation was induced by Dnmt1 depletion, they converted into embryonic stem (ES)-like cells. Dnmt1 depletion downregulated Dmrt1 expression, whose depletion also induced pluripotency. Functional screening of Dmrt1 target gene revealed that Dmrt1 depletion upregulates Sox2, the key molecule responsible for generating induced pluripotent stem cells. Although Sox2 transfection upregulated Oct4 and produced pluripotent cells, this conversion was inhibited by Oct1 overexpression, suggesting that the balance of Oct proteins maintains SSC identity. These results suggest that culture-induced reprogramming is caused by unstable DNA methylation, and that Dmrt1-Sox2 cascade is critical for regulating pluripotency in SSCs.

These results suggest that culture-induced reprogramming is caused by unstable DNA methylation, and that Dmrt1-Sox2 cascade is critical for regulating pluripotency in SSCs. Pluripotent stem-like cells were induced from GS cells by down-regulation of Dnmt/Dmrt, or up-regulation of Sox2/Oct4 in combination with p53 knock-down and their total RNA samples were subjected to microarray analysis to compare their gene expression profile with other pluripotent stem cells such as ES cells or iPS cells.

Genomic profiling of human spermatogonial stem cells [scRNA-Seq]

Project description:To better understand human spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs), we profiled their transciptome and epigenome, which revealed the mechanism how human SSCs regulates their self-renewal versus differentiation dermination, as well as how latent pluripotency is established in human SSCs. Remarkly, we discovered signaling pathways (e.g. LIF, BMP, WNT) that differentially regulated self-renewal vesus differentiation in SSCs. We also discovered that SSCs repress core pluripotent factors (Sox2, Pou5f1 and Nanog) yet activate ancillary factors (e.g. Klf4, Mbd3, Tcf3, Sall4) transcriptionally and epigenetically.

Expression data from cultured spermatogonia established from 10 day old mouse testes

Project description:Spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) undergo self-renewal division to sustain spermatogenesis. Although it is possible to derive germline stem (GS) cell cultures from most of the mouse strains by supplementing GDNF and FGF2, SSCs from a 129 background do not proliferate under the same culture conditions, which suggested that they have distinct self-renewal requirements. We modified previous culture conditions and established long-term culture of SSCs of 129 mice. 129 GS cells reinitiated spermatogenesis and produced offspring following transplantation into the seminiferous tubules of infertile mouse recipients. This dataset show the differences of gene expressions of GS cells between C57BL/6 and 129 mice, which have important implications in understanding requirements of self-renewal mechanisms. In this dataset, we include the expression data obtained from cultured spermatogonia (GS cells) derived from C57BL/6, and 129 mice. Each group contains 2 biological replicates.

ATAC-seq Analysis of Chromatin Accessibility in p53 Deficient Spermatogonial Stem Cells for High Frequency Transformation into Pluripotent State

Project description:Spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) could transform into pluripotent state in long term culture without introduction of exogenous factors. And p53 deficiency rescued SSCs from extensive cell apoptosis during transformation induced by rewriting of methylation profiles in SSCs. Notably, p53 is believed as a key bottle-neck for reprogramming. Based on these studies, we compared the difference of chromatin accessibility between SSCs from wild type and p53 deficient SSCs mice using ATAC-seq, to explore the potential mechanism at chromosome level. And RNA-Seq was subsequently exerted to verify the predicted genes and related pathways in SSCs transformation. This result further reveals the role of p53 in regulating SSCs fates, which provide hints new insight for understanding the biological characteristics of germline stem cells, basic and clinic researchand molecular mechanisms of reprogramming and tumorigenesis.

In Vitro Derivation and Propagation of Spermatogonial Stem Cell Activity from Mouse Pluripotent Stem Cells

Project description:The in vitro derivation and propagation of spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) from pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) is a key goal in reproductive science. We show here that when aggregated with embryonic testicular somatic cells (reconstituted testes), primordial germ cell-like cells (PGCLCs) induced from mouse embryonic stem cells differentiate into spermatogonia-like cells in vitro and are expandable as cells that resemble germline stem cells (GSCs), a primary cell line with SSC activity. Remarkably, GSC-like cells (GSCLCs), but not PGCLCs, colonize adult testes and, albeit less effectively than GSCs, contribute to spermatogenesis and fertile offspring. Whole-genome analyses reveal that GSCLCs exhibit aberrant methylation at vulnerable regulatory elements, including those critical for spermatogenesis, which may restrain their spermatogenic potential. Our study establishes a strategy for the in vitro derivation of SSC activity from PSCs, which, we propose, relies on faithful epigenomic regulation.
