Gene expression profiling of a mouse model of islet dysmorphogenesis

ABSTRACT: In the past decade, several transcription factors critical for pancreas development have been identified. Despite this success, many of the cell surface and extracellular factors necessary for proper islet morphogenesis and function remain uncharacterized. Previous studies have shown that transgenic over-expression of the transcription factor HNF6 specifically in the pancreatic endocrine cell lineage resulted in the disruption of islet morphogenesis, including dysfunctional endocrine cell sorting, increased islet size, and failure of islets to migrate away from the ductal epithelium. We exploited the dysmorphic islets in pdx1PBHnf6 animals as a tool to identify factors important for islet morphogenesis. Genome-wide microarray analysis was used to identify differences in the gene expression profiles of late gestation and early postnatal pancreas tissue from wild type and pdx1PBHnf6 animals. We report the identification of genes with an altered expression in HNF6 Tg animals and highlight factors with potential importance in islet morphogenesis. Keywords: disease state analysis, developmental stage analysis

We report the identification of genes with an altered expression in HNF6 Tg animals and highlight factors with potential importance in islet morphogenesis. Experiment Overall Design: Whole genome microarray analysis was used to identify differences in the gene expression profiles of late gestation and early postnatal pancreas tissue from wild type (WT) animals and HNF6 transgenic animals at a time when the events of normal islet morphogenesis are occurring (e18.5 and postnatal day 1). RNA was isolated from individual pancreata at the appropriate developmental stage. Highly pure samples were pooled according to their genotype (3-5 animals per pool) in order to obtain an adequate quantity of RNA for Affymetrix GeneChip analysis. Twelve samples were run in total, 3 replicates each of 4 groups: embryonic day 18.5, wild type mouse; embryonic day 18.5, HNF6 Transgenic mouse; post-natal day 1, wild type mouse; post-natal day 1, HNF6 Transgenic mouse.

PDX1+ cell budding morphogenesis in a stem cell-derived islet spheroid system

Project description:Remarkable advancements in protocol development have been achieved to manufacture insulin-secreting islets from human pluripotent stem cells. Distinct from current approaches, we devised a tunable strategy to generate islet spheroids enriched for major islet cell types by incorporating PDX1+ cell budding morphogenesis into the differentiation process of staged transcriptional programming. In this process that appears to mimic normal islet morphogenesis, the differentiating islet spheroids self-organize with endocrine cells that are intermingled or arranged in a core-mantle architecture, accompanied with functional heterogeneity. Through in vitro modelling of human pancreas development, we illustrate the importance of PDX1 in eliciting cell budding morphogenesis, and the requirement for EphB3/4 signaling. We show how RFX6 deficiency affects pancreatic patterning and uncover an expected role of RFX6 in early pancreas morphology. The tunable differentiation system and stem cell-derived islet models described in this work may facilitate addressing fundamental questions in islet biology and probing human pancreas diseases.

Genome-wide effect of islet isolation and in vitro culture on gene expression profile of pancreatic beta-cells enriched tissue.

Project description:It is known that the stresses encountered during islet isolation have deleterious effects on beta-cell physiology. The nature of these effects, however, is incompletely known, partly due to the heterogeneity of islet preparations. The objective was to assess the genome-wide effect of islet isolation and in-vitro culture on beta-cell transcriptome. Beta cells identified by their intrinsic autofluorescence, were captured from donor pancreas and isolated islets using Laser Capture Microdissection. Beta cells from donor pancreas serve as the control. Our results indicated induction of a strong inflammatory response induced by islet isolation which continues during in vitro culture manifested by upregulation of several cytokines, chemokines and their receptors. IL-8 was induced by 3.6-fold and 56-fold in fresh and 3-days cultured islets respectively. Concordantly, several pancreatic progenitor cell-specific transcription factors like were upregulated in cultured islets, suggesting progressive transformation of mature beta-cell phenotype toward an immature endocrine cell phenotype. There are three sample types in our experiment; 1) beta-cells captured from the frozen sections of donor pancreas n=8, 2) beta cells extracted from islets frozen immediately after isolation (d0 islets) n=8 and, 3) beta cells extracted from isolated islets frozen after culturing for 3 days (d3 islets) n=5. For the analysis, beta cells from pancreas were considered as the reference point.

Age-associated DNA methylation increases in mouse pancreatic islets suggest an epigenetic drift toward the exocrine pancreas epigenome

Project description:Early postnatal overnutrition causes persistent dysregulation of endocrine pancreas function. We used genome-scale DNA methylation profiling in the suckling-period small litter (SL) mouse model to test whether this occurs via persistent epigenetic changes in pancreatic islets. Although SL islets showed DNA methylation changes directly after weaning and in adulthood, few of these were present at both ages, contrary to our hypothesis. Most interestingly, we discovered that genomic regions that are hypermethylated in exocrine relative to endocrine pancreas tend to gain methylation in islets during aging. Focusing on a subset of genes relevant to β cell function, we showed that these methylation differences are strongly correlated with expression. Together, our results provide the novel insight that DNA methylation changes that occur as islets age indicate an overall epigenetic drift toward the exocrine pancreas epigenome. These concerted shifts in the islet methylome could contribute to the age-associated decline in endocrine pancreas function. Pancreatic islets were isolated from P21/P180 SL or C mice. To ensure purity of islets, 3 rounds of manual picking were performed in each samples. Whole pancreas samples, ~98% of which is exocrine pancreas, were used as exocrine pancreas. There are 5 mice per group.

H3K4 trimethylation is required for postnatal pancreatic endocrine cell functional maturation

Project description:During pancreas development, endocrine progenitors differentiate into the islet-cell subtypes, which undergo further functional maturation in postnatal islet development. In islet b-cells, genes involved in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion are activated and glucose exposure increases the insulin response as b-cells mature. Here, we investigated the role of H3K4 trimethylation in endocrine cell differentiation and functional maturation by disrupting TrxG complex histone methyltransferase activity in mouse endocrine progenitors. In the embryo, genetic inactivation of TrxG component Dpy30 in NEUROG3+ cells did not affect the number of endocrine progenitors or endocrine cell differentiation. H3K4 trimethylation was progressively lost in postnatal islets and the mice displayed elevated non-fasting and fasting glycemia, as well as impaired glucose tolerance by postnatal day 24. Although postnatal endocrine cell proportions were equivalent to controls, islet RNA-sequencing revealed a downregulation of genes involved in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion and an upregulation of immature b-cell genes. Comparison of histone modification enrichment profiles in NEUROG3+ endocrine progenitors and mature islets suggested that genes downregulated by loss of H3K4 trimethylation more frequently acquire active histone modifications during maturation. Taken together, these findings suggest that H3K4 trimethylation is required for the activation of genes involved in the functional maturation of pancreatic islet endocrine cells.

Synaptotagmin 13 drives pancreatic endocrine cell egression and islet morphogenesis: Affinity purification

Project description:Identification of protein complexes for the synaptotagmin 13 protein from MDCK cells by Strep affinity purificaiton and LFQ mass spectrometry. Epithelial cell egression is important for organ development and cell differentiation, but also drives cancer metastasis. The tightly connected pancreatic epithelial differentiation and morphogenesis generate islets of Langerhans. However, the morphogenetic drivers and molecular mechanisms are largely unresolved. Here we identify the uncharacterized Synaptotagmin 13 (Syt13) as a major regulator of endocrine cell egression and islet morphogenesis and differentiation. We detected upregulation of Syt13 in endocrine precursors that associates with increased expression of several unique cytoskeletal components. High-resolution imaging reveals a previously unidentified apical-basal to front-rear repolarization during endocrine cell egression. Strikingly, Syt13 directly interacts with acetylated tubulin and phosphoinositide phospholipids to be recruited to the leading edge of egressing cells. Knockout of Syt13 discloses the impairment in endocrine cell egression and skews the α-to-β-cell ratio. At mechanistic levels, Syt13 regulates protein endocytosis to remodel the basement membrane and modulate cell-matrix adhesion at the leading edge of egressing endocrine cells. Altogether, these findings implicate that Ca2+-independent atypical Syt13 vesicular protein functions in regulating cell polarity to orchestrate endocrine cell egression and tissue morphogenesis.

Role of transcription factor ONECUT1 (HNF6) during in vitro pancreatic differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells [ATAC-seq]

Project description:We have identified HNF6 as an essential transcription factor for endocrine pancreatic development. HNF6 binds to and possibly regulates other isletogenesis transcription factors, driving endocrine differentiation. ATAC sequencing of control and HNF6-depleted hESC during in vitro pancreatic differentiation will help to understand the regulatory mechanisms during cell fate decisions.
