Quantitative Analysis by Next Generation Sequencing of LSK (Lin- Sca1+ cKit+) hematopoietic progenitors and splenic B cells (naive and in vitro LPS activated) transcriptomes from Wild Type and Usp3-/- mice

ABSTRACT: Purpose: the goal of this study is to investigate the consequences of USP3 deletion on gene expression in mouse LSK hematopoietic progenitors and in splenic B cells Methods: mRNA profiles of 8 weeks-old wild-type (WT) and ubiquitin specific protease 3 knockout (Usp3−/−) mice were generated by deep sequencing, in duplicate, using Illumina Hiseq2000. The sequence reads that passed quality filters were mapped with TopHat and the gene expressions were calculated using HTSeq-count. qRT–PCR validation was performed using SYBR Green assays Results: We assigned about 8-16 million reads per sample uniquely to a gene of the mouse reference genome (mm9). We identified 23,429 genes in the LSKs, naive B cells and activate B cells of WT and USP3−/− mice using TopHat in combination with HTSeq-count. Comparison of the RNAseq data from LSK with naive or activated B cells show that both the wt and the Usp3-/- LSKs largely exibited a gene expression profile that is specific for wt LSK and distinct from B cells (as supported by statistical significant difference between the transciptional profile of LSK versus naive or activated B cells, p value<0.0001 by Student t test). Comparison of normalized gene expression data for Wt LSKs versus naive B cells of one representative experiment shows Pearson coefficient of r=0.874, and R2=0.763. Distinct LSK-specific expressed genes (such as the MlI receptor and the Kit receptor) and B cells specific genes (such as the MS4A1/CD20 and Spi-B transcription factors) are identified. Expression of a set of 19 genes was assessed by RT-qPCR in three independent LSK mRNA per each genotype. qRT-PCR and the RNA-seq normalized expression data for these genes had a good linear relationship, validating the RNAseq analysis. Comparison of normalized gene expression data for Usp3-/- versus Wt LSK show Pearson coefficient r=0.986; R2=0.9738), naive B cells (Pearson coefficient r=0.987, R2=0.974) and LPS activated B cells (Pearson coefficient r=0.991, R2=0.983). RT-qPCR of a subset of hematopoietic stem cell genes, including Mlp2, ENg, Tek and Fdzl3, show no significant difference beteewn wt and Usp3-/- LSK cells. Less than 100 genes showed differential expression (up or down regulated) between the Wt and Usp3-/- LSK, with a fold change ≥1.5 and p value <0.05. Conclusions: Our results represent the first detailed analyis of the consequences of USP3 deletion on gene expression in hematopoietic populations such as LSKs progenitors and B cells by genome wide expression profiling in wt and Usp3-/- mice. RNAseq of two freshly isolated biological replicas of sorted LSKs from 8 weeks old Usp3-/- animals showed a very limited number of genes either slighly up or down regulated (<100 out of about 25.000) in Usp3-/- LSKs, none of which are reported to be directly involved in hematopoietic stem cell maintenance or to be linked to premature differentiation. We confirmed that Usp3-/- and wt LSKs express hematopoietic stem cell-specific genes to a similar extent. We conclude that young adult hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (LSKs) perpetuated a stable gene expression program regardless of the homozygous deletion of USP3.

For each experiment wt n=4, Usp3-/- n=4 mice were analized. FACS sorted cells from from individual animals were pooled and subjected to deep sequencing. Cells were: LSK (Lin- Sca1+ cKit+) from bone marrow, sorted naive B cells from spleens (CD19+) and activated B cells harvested and FACS sorted after 4 days stimulation with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in culture.

Project description:Purpose: the goal of this study is to investigate the consequences of ubiquitin specific protease 15 (USP15) deletion on gene expression in mouse LSK hematopoietic progenitors. Methods: mRNA profiles of 8 weeks-old wild-type (WT) and ubiquitin specific protease 15 knockout (Usp15−/−) mice were generated by deep sequencing using Illumina Hiseq2500. The sequence reads that passed quality filters Alignments of the sequence reads that passed quality filters were performed using TopHat2.1, Genome build 38 and Ensembl gtf version 77 and genecounts have been generated using Itreecount. https://github.com/NKI-GCF/itreecount Results: We assigned about 30 million reads per sample uniquely to a gene of the mouse reference genome (mm10) We identified 21,219 genes in the LSKs of WT and Usp15−/− mice using TopHat2.1 in combination with Itreecount. https://github.com/NKI-GCF/itreecount. Distinct LSK-specific expressed genes (such as Eng, Tek, the MlI receptor and the Kit receptor) are identified. Comparison of normalized gene expression data for Usp15-/- versus WT LSK confirmed the loss of Usp15. Apart from Usp15, almost no other significantly deregurated genes were detected using a treshold of fold change ≥1.5 and p value <0.05, suggesting the maintenance of an overall stable identity of the cellular compartment in Usp15-/- mice. Conclusions: Our results represent the first detailed analyis of the consequences of USP15 deletion on gene expression in hematopoietic populations such as LSKs progenitors by genome wide expression profiling in WT and Usp15-/- mice. RNAseq of two freshly isolated biological replicas of sorted LSKs from 8 weeks old Usp15-/- animals confirmed the loss of Usp15, while showing almost no significant other up or down regulated genes among the 21,219 genes identified in Usp15-/- LSKs. We conclude that young adult hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (LSKs) perpetuated a stable gene expression program regardless of the homozygous deletion of USP15.

Project description:Purpose: The histone H3 lysine 36 methyltransferase SETD2 is frequently mutated in various cancers, including leukemia. However, there has not been any functional model to show the contribution of SETD2 in hematopoiesis or the causal role of SETD2 mutation in tumorigenesis. In this study, using a conditional Setd2 knock-out (KO) mouse model, we show that Setd2 deficiency skews hematopoietic differentiation and impaired HSC (hematopoietic stem cell) self-renewal. Intriguingly, Setd2-deleted HSCs, through a latency period, can acquire abilities to overcome the growth disadvantage and eventually develop into hematopoietic malignancy characteristic of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). This study aimed at finding the mechanism controlled by Setd2, which was required for MDS formation. Methods: Young and old Setd2 WT and KO LSKs (Lin-c-Kit+Sca1+) were generated by deep RNA-seq, using Illumina Hiseq2500. Using Stringtie (version:1.3.0) software to analyze the sequence reads that passed quality filter to acquire the expression level of all genes. qRT–PCR validation was performed using SYBR Green assays. Young Setd2 WT and KO LSKs were also generated by whole genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS), using Illumina Hiseq2500. Results: Using an optimized data analysis workflow, 246 genes down-regulated and 226 up-regulated, showed significant differential expression (fold change, FC ≤ 0.5 or FC ≥ 2; p < 0.05) between young WT and KO LSKs. Old LSKs displayed about 1112 down-regulated and 777 up-regulated genes between WT and KO. The results of WGBS showed that the Setd2 KO genome carries a much larger number of hypomethylated DMRs (different methylation regions) relative to hypermethylated ones (5,839 versus 1,294). Conclusions: Through RNA-seq, gene expression profile of young Setd2-deleted LSKs partially resembles the Dnmt3a/Tet2 double knock-out. WGBS also indicated that Setd2 deficiency can regulate the distribution of whole genome DNA methylation. Furthermore, young Setd2 deficiency also induces DNA replication stress in HSCs, as reflected by activated E2F gene regulatory network and repressed ribonucleotide reductase subunit Rrm2b. Old Setd2-deleted LSKs displayed a MDS related transcriptional signature.
