C-Myc down-regulation is required for pre-acinar to acinar maturation in the pancreas (RNA-Seq)

ABSTRACT: Multipotent pancreatic progenitors (MPC) are defined as Ptf1a+, Mychigh, Cpa+ cells. During the transition from MPC to unipotent acinar progenitors, c-Myc is down-regulated whereas Ptf1a is up-regulated, leading to the deployment of the acinar program. Here, we show that c-Myc and Ptf1a interact directly and c-Myc binds to, and represses, the transcriptional activity of the PTF1 complex in vitro and in vivo. Using Ela1-Myc mice, in which c-Myc is overexpressed in acinar cells starting at E14.5, we find that acinar cells fail to undergo normal maturation at P1 and this is followed by a massive subsequent repression of the acinar programme. Lineage tracing with Ptf1aCreERT2;Rosa26YFP and Ela1-Myc;Ptf1aCreERT2;Rosa26YFP mice receiving TMX at E15.5 and analyzed at E18.5 revealed that c-Myc overexpression is associated with activation of a hepatic programme but not with pancreatic lineage misspecification At 8 weeks, the silencing of the acinar program is associated with increased expression of the PRC2 complex in a c-Myc dependent manner. Genome wide studies show that Ptf1a and c-Myc display partially overlapping chromatin occupancy patterns and DNA binding competition. We conclude that c-Myc down-regulation during development is crucial for the maturation of pre-acinar to acinar cells. c-Myc overexpression may contribute to pancreatic carcinogenesis by restraining cell differentiation and rendering cells susceptible to transformation.

Ptf1a-dependent gene expression during pancreas development (TLDA part)

Project description:We first used RNA-Seq technology to explore gene expression in mouse Ptf1a^YFP/+ [het] FACS sorted cells at E11.5 (early pancreatic Multipotent Progenitor Cells) and E15.5 (nascent acinar cells) as well as in Ptf1a^YFP/YFP [null] at E11.5 (delayed early MPC): this is deposited with accession number E-MTAB-449. We then examined 376 selected genes identified as differentially expressed between early pancreatic MPC and nascent acinar cells or between early pancreatic and delayed early MPCs by Taqman Low Density Arrays (TLDAs) with Real Time RT-PCR for each 1-day time point from E10.5 to E15. 5 in Ptf1a^YFP/+ [het] and for E10.5 and E11.5 in Ptf1aYFP/YFP [null] . Finally, 94 genes identified in the first phase of TLDAs (including 2 endogenous control, Gapdh and 18S) were analyzed in a second TLDA phase for each 1-day time point from E10.5 to -E18.5 in Ptf1a^YFP/+ [het] and for E11.5 in Ptf1aYFP/YFP [null] with biological replicates (n>=3) for each time point.

Expression profiles of Brg1-depleted acinar cells during ductal conversion

Project description:Brahma related gene 1 (BRG1), a catalytic ATPase subunit of SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complexes, is silenced in approximately 10% of human pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (PDA). We previously showed that BRG1 inhibits the formation of intraductal pancreatic mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) and IPMN-derived PDA from ductal cells. However, the role of BRG1 in pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasia (PanIN) from acinar cells remains elusive. Here, we investigated the role of BRG1 in PanIN initiation and maintenance and its underlying mechanisms. Exclusive elimination of Brg1 in acinar cells of Ptf1a-CreER; KrasG12D; Brg1f/f (KBC) mice impaired the formation of acinar-to-ductal metaplasia (ADM) and PanIN independent of the presence of p53 mutation. We found that Sox9 expression was down-regulated in both Brg1-depleted acinar cell explants and BRG1-depleted ADMs/PanINs. Sox9 overexpression rescued this PanIN-attenuated phenotype in KBC mice. Furthermore, Brg1-deletion in established PanIN by using an inducible dual recombinase system resulted in regression of the lesions in mice. Finally, expression of BRG1 and SOX9 was also positively correlated in human PanIN-derived PDAs. In summary, BRG1 is critical for both initiation and maintenance of PanIN. Mechanistically, this is mediated through positive regulation of SOX9 expression. Thus, the BRG1/SOX9 axis is a potential target for the prevention of PanIN-derived PDA.

Transcriptional profiling of pancreatic acinar to ductal metaplasia using laser capture microdissection

Project description:Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a deadly disease when diagnosed at a late stage, however patient survivorship significantly increases when the disease is detect prior to metastasis. To study the earliest events leading to PDAC initiation, we developed a genetically engineered mouse model of PDAC utilizing a tamoxifen-inducible Cre Recombinase knocked into the transcription factor Ptf1a locus to induce expression of oncogenic KrasG12D and Trp53R270H alleles in adult pancreatic acinar cells. Mice of the genotype KrasLSL-G12D/+; Trp53LSL-R270H/+; Ptf1aCreERTM/+ (KPT) developed PDAC following tamoxifen injection while control Cre recombinase negative KrasLSL-G12D/+; Trp53LSL-R270H/+; (KP) mice injected with tamoxifen did not develop PDAC. Acinar cells comprising the pancreata of tamoxifen treated KPT mice we observed to undergo acinar to ductal metaplasia (ADM), and formed precancerous lesions. We used laser capture microdissection (LCM) and RNA sequencing to generate, to our knowledge, the first transcriptional profile of an enriched population of metaplastic acinar cells in situ. Comparing the transcriptional profile of metaplastic acinar cells with the transcriptional profile of healthy pancreatic tissue identified differentially expressed genes associated with ADM. Ingenuity pathway analysis revealed transcriptional regulators and canonical signaling pathways involved in ADM. LCM was used to generate a transactional profile of cancer cells isolated from pancreatic tumors, and differential gene expression analysis revealed a subset of genes which are overexpressed in both ADM and PDAC relative to healthy pancreas. Further analysis of genes expressed in both pancreatic cancer precursor ADM lesions and invasive PDAC may lead to the identification of novel biomarkers of PDAC.

SOX9+/PTF1A+ Cells Define the Tip Progenitor Cells of the Human Fetal Pancreas of the Second Trimester

Project description:Significant progress has been made in recent years in characterizing human multipotent progenitor cells (hMPCs) of the early pancreas; however, the identity and persistence of these cells during the second trimester, after the initiation of branching morphogenesis, remain elusive. Additionally, studies on hMPCs have been hindered by few isolation methods that allow for the recovery of live cells. Here, we investigated the tip progenitor domain in the branched epithelium of human fetal pancreas between 13.5 and 17.5 gestational weeks by immunohistological staining. We also used a novel RNA‐based technology to isolate live cells followed by gene expression analyses. We identified cells co‐expressing SOX9 and PTF1A, two transcription factors known to be important for pancreatic MPCs, within the tips of the epithelium and observed a decrease in their proportions over time. Pancreatic SOX9+/PTF1A+ cells were enriched for MPC markers, including MYC and GATA6. These cells were proliferative and appeared active in branching morphogenesis and matrix remodeling, as evidenced by gene set enrichment analysis. We identified a hub of genes pertaining to the expanding tip progenitor niche, such as FOXF1, GLI3, TBX3, FGFR1, TGFBR2, ITGAV, ITGA2, and ITGB3. YAP1 of the Hippo pathway emerged as a highly enriched component within the SOX9+/PTF1A+ cells. Single‐cell RNA‐sequencing further corroborated the findings by identifying a cluster of SOX9+/PTF1A+ cells with multipotent characteristics. Based on these results, we propose that the SOX9+/PTF1A+ cells in the human pancreas are uncommitted MPC‐like cells that reside at the tips of the expanding pancreatic epithelium, directing self‐renewal and inducing pancreatic organogenesis.
