Project description:Intestinal epithelial stem cells (ISCs) are the focus of recent intense study. Current in vitro models rely on supplementation with the Wnt agonist R-spondin1 to support robust growth, ISC self-renewal, and differentiation. Intestinal subepithelial myofibroblasts (ISEMFs) are important supportive cells within the ISC niche. We hypothesized that co-culture with ISEMF enhances the growth of ISCs in vitro and allows for their successful in vivo implantation and engraftment. ISC-containing small intestinal crypts, FACS-sorted single ISCs, and ISEMFs were procured from C57BL/6 mice. Crypts and single ISCs were grown in vitro into enteroids, in the presence or absence of ISEMFs. ISEMFs enhanced the growth of intestinal epithelium in vitro in a proximity-dependent fashion, with co-cultures giving rise to larger enteroids than monocultures. Co-culture of ISCs with supportive ISEMFs relinquished the requirement of exogenous R-spondin1 to sustain long-term growth and differentiation of ISCs. Mono- and co-cultures were implanted subcutaneously in syngeneic mice. Co-culture with ISEMFs proved necessary for successful in vivo engraftment and proliferation of enteroids; implants without ISEMFs did not survive. ISEMF whole transcriptome sequencing and qPCR demonstrated high expression of specific R-spondins, well-described Wnt agonists that supports ISC growth. Specific non-supportive ISEMF populations had reduced expression of R-spondins. The addition of ISEMFs in intestinal epithelial culture therefore recapitulates a critical element of the intestinal stem cell niche and allows for its experimental interrogation and biodesign-driven manipulation. Two samples of intestinal subepithelial myofibroblasts were used in this study.

Project description:Inevitable need for basement membrane extract (BME) with undefined constituents, such as Matrigel, for intestinal stem cell (ISC) culture in traditional system poses a significant barrier that must be overcome for the development of clinical-grade, scalable, ready-to-use ISCs. Here, we propose a functional polymer-based xenogeneic-free dish for the culture of intestinal stem cells (XF-DISC), ensuring substantially prolonged maintenance of ISCs derived from 3-dimensional human intestinal organoid (ISCs3D-hIO). XF-DISC enables remarkable expandability, exhibiting a 24-fold amplification in cell number within 30 days, with long-term maintenance of ISCs3D-hIO through consecutive passaging more than 30 times (> 210 days), and is fully compatible with a cell banking system. Notably, the ISCs3D-hIO cultured on XF-DISC are successfully transplanted into the intestinal injury and inflammation models, leading to full regeneration of damaged intestinal epithelium. XF-DISC, an extraordinary reliable and scalable xenogeneic-free ISC3D-hIO culture method exhibits significant promise in the development of regenerative ISC therapy for human intestinal diseases.

Project description: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.

Project description:The gut and liver have been recognized to mutually communicate through the biliary tract, portal vein and systemic circulation, but it remains unclear how this gut-liver axis regulates intestinal physiology. Through hepatectomy, transcriptomics and proteomics profiling, we identified pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF), as a liver-derived soluble Wnt inhibitor, that can restrain intestinal stem cells (ISC) hyperproliferation for gut homeostasis by competing with Wnt ligands and suppressing Wnt/beta-catenin signaling pathway. In turn, microbial danger signals from intestinal inflammation can be sensed by the liver to repress PEDF production via peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha (PPAR alpha), liberating ISC proliferation to accelerate tissue repair in the gut. Further, treatment of mice with fenofibrate, a clinical agent of PPARalpha agonist for hypolipidemia enhances the susceptibility of colitis via PEDF activity. Therefore, we identified a distinct role of PEDF to calibrate ISC expansion for intestinal homeostasis via reciprocal interactions between the gut and liver.

Project description:Background & Aims: Hierarchical organization of intestine relies on their stem cells by self-renew and producing committed progenitors. Although signals like Wnt are known to animate the continued renewal by maintaining intestinal stem cells (ISCs) activity, molecular mechanisms especially E3 ubiquitin ligases that modulate ISCs ‘stemness’ and supportive niche have not been well understood. Here, we investigated the role of Cullin 4B (Cul4b) in regulating ISC functions. Methods: We generated mice with intestinal epithelial-specific disruption of Cul4b (pVillin-cre; Cul4bfn/Y), inducible disruption of Cul4b (Lgr5-creERT2; Cul4bfn/Y, CAG-creERT2; Cul4bfn/Y) and their control (Cul4bfn/Y). Intestinal tissues were analyzed by histology, immunofluorescence, RNA sequencing and mass spectrum. Intestinal organoids deprived from mice with pVillin-Cre; Cul4bfn/Y, Lgr5-Cre; Cul4bfn/Y, Tg-Cul4b and their controls were used in assays to measure intestinal self-renewal, proliferation and differentiation. Wnt signaling and intestinal markers were analyzed by immunofluorescence and immunoblot assays. Differential proteins upon Cul4b ablation or Cul4b-interacting proteins were identified by mass spectrometry. Results: Cul4b specifically located at ISCs zone. Block of Cul4b impaired intestinal homeostasis maintenance by reduced self-renewal and proliferation. Transcriptome analysis revealed that Cul4b-null intestine lose ISC characterization and showed disturbed ISC niche. Mechanistically, reactivated Wnt pathway could recover intestinal dysfunction of Cul4b knockout mice. Analysis of differential total and ubiquitylated proteins uncovered the novel targeting substrate of Cullin-Ring ubiquitin ligase 4b (CRL4b), immunity-related GTPase family M member 1 (Irgm1) in intestine. Decreased Irgm1 rescued abnormally interferon signaling, overemphasized autophagy and downstream phosphate proteins in Cul4b knockout mice. Conclusion: We conclude that Cul4b is essential for ISC self-renewal and Paneth cell function by targeting Irgm1 and modulating Wnt signaling. Our results demonstrate that Cul4b is a novel ISC stemness and niche regulator.

Project description:The adult intestine is a regionalized organ, whose size and cellular composition is adjusted in response to nutrient status. This involves dynamic regulation of intestinal stem cell (ISC) proliferation and differentiation. How nutrient signaling integrates with mechanisms controlling cell fate to achieve regional changes in intestinal cell composition remains unclear. Here we show that nutrient adaptation involves highly region-specific control of intestinal cell size, number and differentiation. Our data uncovered a mechanism by which mTOR complex 1 activation increases ISC size in a region-specific manner. This promotes Delta expression to direct cell fate towards the absorptive enteroblast lineage, while inhibiting secretory enteroendocrine cell differentiation. Thus, ISC size acts as an early fate determinant allowing regional control of intestinal cell differentiation in response to nutrition.
