The single-stranded DNA binding protein Ssbp3 promotes trophoblast differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cells

ABSTRACT: Unlimited self-renewal and developmental pluripotency are hallmarks of embryonic stem cells. Both properties are precisely controlled by the extrinsic signals and intrinsic factors and have been extensively investigated. However, factors capable of converting ES cells to extra-embryonic lineages have been poorly studied. Here we found that overexpression of Ssbp3 dramatically up-regulated trophoblast specific markers. Then we investigated the genome-wide transcriptional effect of ectopic Ssbp3 expression by comparing the whole genome expression profiles of Ssbp3-overexpressing cells with negative control cells using affymetrix microarray.Genetic analysis indicated that overexpression of Ssbp3 drives the trophoblast transcriptional program, induces the expression of early trophectoderm transcription factors such as Cdx2, Gata3 and Elf5, and activates MAPK and TGF-β pathways, which are essential for trophoblast derivation.Our findings identify Ssbp3 as a novel regulator converting ES cells into extra-embryonic trophoblast.

Fgf and Esrrb integrate epigenetic and transcriptional networks that regulate self-renewal of Trophoblast Stem Cells

Project description:Esrrb is a transcription factor implicated in embryonic stem (ES) cell self-renewal, yet its knockout causes intrauterine lethality due to defects in trophoblast development. Here we show that in trophoblast stem (TS) cells, Esrrb is a downstream target of fibroblast growth factor (Fgf) signalling and is critical to drive TS cell self-renewal. In contrast to its occupancy of pluripotency-associated loci in ES cells, Esrrb sustains the stemness of TS cells by direct binding and regulation of TS cell-specific transcription factors including Elf5 and Eomes. To elucidate the mechanisms whereby Esrrb controls the expression of its targets, we characterized its TS cell-specific interactome by mass spectrometry. Unlike in ES cells, Esrrb interacts in TS cells with the histone demethylase Lsd1 and with the RNA Polymerase II-associated Integrator complex. Our findings provide new insights into both, the general and context-dependent wiring of transcription factor networks in stem cells by master transcription factors.

Elf5-centered transcription factor hub controls trophoblast stem cell self-renewal and differentiation through stoichiometry-sensitive shifts in target gene networks

Project description:Elf5 is a transcription factor with pivotal roles in the trophoblast compartment where it reinforces a trophoblast stem cell (TSC)-specific transcriptional circuit. However, Elf5 is also present in differentiating trophoblast cells that have ceased to express other TSC genes such as Cdx2 and Eomes. In the current study we aimed to elucidate the context-dependent role of Elf5 at the interface between TSC self-renewal and onset of differentiation. We demonstrate that precise levels of Elf5 are critical for normal expansion of the TSC compartment and embryonic survival, as Elf5 overexpression triggers precocious trophoblast differentiation. Through integration of protein interactome, transcriptome and genome-wide chromatin immunoprecipitation data we reveal that this abundance-dependent function is mediated through a shift in preferred Elf5 binding partners; in TSCs, Elf5 interaction with Eomes recruits Tfap2c to triply occupied sites at TSC-specific genes driving their expression. By contrast, the Elf5 and Tfap2c interaction becomes predominant as their protein levels increase. This triggers binding to double and single occupancy sites that harbour the cognate Tfap2c motif, causing activation of the associated differentiation-promoting genes. These data place Elf5 at the centre of a stoichiometry-sensitive transcriptional network where it acts as molecular switch governing the balance between TSC proliferation and differentiation.

Breaking the first lineage barrier: Direct induction of trophoblast stem cells from murine fibroblasts

Project description:Trophoblast stem cells represent the stem cell population of the extra-embryonic lineage and arise as a result of the first cell fate decision. From blastocyst stage onwards, a distinct epigenetic lineage barrier strictly separates mouse embryonic and extra-embryonic lineages. Recently, it has been shown that this epigenetic barrier cannot be fully overcome as the expression of TS-determining factors in embryonic stem cells lead to incomplete transdifferentiation. Here, we demonstrate that transient expression of Tfap2c, Gata3, Eomes and Ets2 in fibroblasts suffices to generate cells which are almost identical to trophoblast stem cells based on morphology, expression and methylation pattern. Further, these induced trophoblast stem cells display transgene independent self-renewal, differentiate along the extra-embryonic lineage and chimerize the placenta upon blastocyst injection. Our findings provide insights into the transcription factor networks governing trophoblast stem cell identity and offer a new tool for studying the hierarchy of those factors.

BMP4 initiates human ES cell differentiation

Project description:The excitement and controversy surrounding the potential role of human embryonic stem (ES) cells in transplantation therapy have often overshadowed their potentially more important use as a basic research tool for understanding the development and function of human tissues. Human ES cells can proliferate without a known limit and can form advanced derivatives of all three embryonic germ layers. What is less widely appreciated is that human ES cells can also form the extra-embryonic tissues that differentiate from the embryo before gastrulation. The use of human ES cells to derive early human trophoblast is particularly valuable, because it is difficult to obtain from other sources and is significantly different from mouse trophoblast. Here we show that bone morphogenetic protein 4 (BMP4), a member of the transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) superfamily, induces the differentiation of human ES cells to trophoblast. DNA microarray, RT-PCR, and immunoassay analyses demonstrate that the differentiated cells express a range of trophoblast markers and secrete placental hormones. When plated at low density, the BMP4-treated cells form syncytia that express chorionic gonadotrophin (CG). These results underscore fundamental differences between human and mouse ES cells, which differentiate poorly, if at all, to trophoblast. Human ES cells thus provide a tool for studying the differentiation and function of early human trophoblast and could provide a new understanding of some of the earliest differentiation events of human postimplantation development.

Effect of Tet1-knockdown on gene expression in mouse ES cells cultured in ES and TS cell culture conditions

Project description:TET-family enzymes convert 5-methylcytosine (5mC) to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) in DNA. Tet1 and Tet2 are Oct4-regulated enzymes that together sustain 5hmC in mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells. ES cells depleted of Tet1 by RNAi show diminished expression of the Nodal antagonist Lefty1, and display hyperactive Nodal signalling and skewed differentiation into the endoderm-mesoderm lineage in embryoid bodies in vitro. In Fgf4- and heparin-supplemented culture conditions that favor derivation of trophoblast stem (TS) cells, Tet1-depleted ES cells activate the trophoblast stem cell lineage determinant Elf5 and can colonize the placenta in mid-gestation embryo chimeras. Consistent with these findings, Tet1-depleted ES cells form aggressive hemorrhagic teratomas with increased endoderm, reduced neuroectoderm and ectopic appearance of trophoblastic giant cells. Thus Tet1 functions to regulate the lineage differentiation potential of ES cells. Here, we performed whole-genome transcriptome profiling of ES cells stably depleted of Tet1 by shRNA knockdown (Tet1-kd) cultured in either standard ES cell or in TS cell culture conditions. Gene expression changes in Tet1-kd ES cells were fairly modest compared to control (GFP-kd) cells, although gene ontology (GO) analysis of differentially expressed genes yielded many terms related to embryonic development and cell cycle regulation. In TS cell culture conditions, a core set of genes defining trophectodermal cell differentiation, including Cdx2, Eomes and Tead4, was enriched in Tet1-kd compared to GFP-kd cells.

Specific gene expression related to epiblast development

Project description:To explore genes involved in epiblast development, we have employed whole genome microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform to identify genes. Embryoid body (EB) formation induces embryonic stem (ES) cells to differentiate into germ layers via epiblasts and extra-embryonic tissues, whereas ES cells give rise only to extra-embryonic tissues in monolayer culture. We compared gene expression profiles of ES cells in each differentiation culture methods at day 1-3 or 4 of differentiation. The expression of organizer related genes (Lhx1, Cer1 and Foxa2) was specifically induced at day 3 of EBs, but not in monolayer culture. In epiblast model cells, the overexpression of Lhx1 induced gene expression of organizer and meso-endodermal markers, suggested that Lhx1 was related to epiblast differentiation.

Rodent trophoblast epigenome

Project description:We characterized the trophoblast stem cell epigenome and gene expression profiles in rat and mouse. We profiled 5 histone modifications (+ chromatin input) using ChIP-Seq, and digital expression profiles (3' RNA-Seq) for trophoblast stem cells derived from rat and mouse. Furthermore, for mouse, we profiled key trophoblast stem cell factors Elf5, Cdx2, and Eomes. We found that enhancer regions (defined as distal regions of H3K27ac/H3K4me1 enrichment) were enriched for species-specific endogenous retroviral elements.

Establishment of trophoblast stem cells under defined culture conditions in mice

Project description:The inner cell mass (ICM) and trophoblast cell lineages duet early embryonic development in mammals. After implantation, the ICM forms the embryo proper as well as some extraembryonic tissues, whereas the trophoectoderm (TE) exclusively forms the fetal portion of the placenta and the trophoblast giant cells. Although embryonic stem (ES) cells can be derived from ICM in cultures of mouse blastocysts in the presence of LIF and/or combinations of small-molecule chemical compounds, and the undifferentiated pluripotent state can be stably maintained without use of serum and feeder cells, defined culture conditions for derivation and maintenance of undifferentiated trophoblast stem (TS) cells have not been established. Here, we report that addition of FGF2, activin A, XAV939, and Y27632 are necessary and sufficient for derivation of TS cells from both of E3.5 blastocysts and E6.5 early postimplantation extraembryonic ectoderm. Moreover, the undifferentiated TS cell state can be stably maintained in chemically defined culture conditions. Cells derived in this manner expressed TS cell marker genes, including Eomes, Elf5, Cdx2, Klf5, Cdh1, Esrrb, Sox2, and Tcfap2c; differentiated into all trophoblast subtypes (trophoblast giant cells, spongiotrophoblast, and labyrinthine trophoblast) in vitro; and exclusively contributed to trophoblast lineages in chimeric animals. This delineation of minimal requirements for derivation and self-renewal provides a defined platform for precise description and dissection of the molecular state of TS cells.
