Project description:Cellular senescence is a stress response mechanism maintaining tissue homeostasis by changing physiological state and inducing irreversible proliferative arrest. It has been reported that hypoxia can bypass senescence and extend lifespan of naïve primary cells, mainly, by the decrease in oxidative damage. However, it is unclear how hypoxia can promote the evasion of senescence and promote cell immortalization prior to malignant transformation. We observed that the lifespan of MEFs is increased when they are cultured in hypoxia, reducing the expression of p16INK4a, p15INK4b and p21Cip1. In transcriptional genetic screenings, we found that proliferating naïve MEFs in hypoxia overexpress Tfcp2l1, which is a main regulator of pluripotency and self-renewal in embryonic stem cells, ESCs, as well as stemness-associated genes like Oct3/4, Sox2, Nanog. Tfcp2l1 expression is lost during culture in normoxia. The expression of Tfcp2l1 in hypoxia seems to be regulated by Hif1α and only when it is overexpressed at similar levels to those induced physiologically by hypoxia it increases lifespan of MEFs and promotes overexpression of stemness-associated genes. In Chip-seq experiments, we found that Tfcp2l1 binds and activate the expression of genes which regulate proliferation, which in many cases, are also related to stem cell properties, such as Sox2, Sox9 and Tgfa. Additionally, Tfcp2l1 can replicate the effect of hypoxia increasing cellular reprogramming and its expression correlates positively with the expression of Nanog and negatively with p21Cip1 and p16INK4a. Altogether, our data suggests that the activation of Tfcp2l1 by hypoxia could be relevant in the immortalization prior to malignant transformation, facilitating tumorigenesis and dedifferentiation of cells.

Project description:This report presents a novel mechanism for remodelling a branched epithelial tree. The mouse renal collecting duct develops by growth and repeated branching of an initially unbranched ureteric bud: this mechanism initially produces an almost fractal form with young branches connected to the centre of the kidney via a sequence of nodes (branch points) distributed widely throughout the developing organ. The collecting ducts of a mature kidney have a different form: from the nephrons in the renal cortex, long, straight lengths of collecting duct run almost parallel to one another through the renal medulla, and open together to the renal pelvis. Here we present time-lapse studies of E11.5 kidneys growing in culture: after about 5 days, the collecting duct trees show evidence of 'node retraction', in which the node of a 'Y'-shaped branch moves downwards, shortening the stalk of the 'Y', lengthening its arms and narrowing their divergence angle so that the 'Y' becomes a 'V'. Computer simulation suggests that node retraction can transform a spread tree, like that of an early kidney, into one with long, almost-parallel medullary rays similar to those seen in a mature real kidney.

Project description:Molecular programs involved in embryogenesis are frequently upregulated in oncogenic dedifferentiation and metastasis. However, their precise roles and regulatory mechanisms remain elusive. Here, we showed that CDK1 phosphorylation of TFCP2L1, a pluripotency-associated transcription factor, orchestrated pluripotency and cell-cycling in embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and was aberrantly activated in aggressive bladder cancers (BCs). In murine ESCs, the protein interactome and transcription targets of Tfcp2l1 indicated its involvement in cell-cycle regulation. Tfcp2l1 was phosphorylated at Thr177 by Cdk1, which affected ESC cell-cycle progression, pluripotency, and differentiation. LC-MS was used to characterize thr177 phosphorylation in TFCP2L1 protein obtained by IP experiment and kinase assay. The CDK1-TFCP2L1 pathway was activated in human BC cells, stimulating their proliferation, self-renewal, and invasion. Lack of TFCP2L1 phosphorylation impaired the tumorigenic potency of BC cells in a xenograft model. In patients with BC, high co-expression of TFCP2L1 and CDK1 was associated with unfavorable clinical characteristics including tumor grade, lymphovascular and muscularis propria invasion, and distant metastasis and was an independent prognostic factor for cancer specific survival. These findings demonstrate the molecular and clinical significance of CDK1-mediated TFCP2L1 phosphorylation in stem-cell pluripotency and in the tumorigenic stemness features associated with BC progression.

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of new born mouse kidney collecting duct (CD) cells comparing the infuence of gestational high salt stress on gene expression remolding of BdkrB2 receptor knockout CD cells with that of BdkrB2 receptor wild type CD cells. The BdkrB2 receptor has been shown to be playing a role in renal vascular tone, kidney secretion and reabsorption function, normal kidney development, while impaired BdkrB2 receptor in kidney shown being associated with renal agenesis and renal dysplasia. Goal was to determine the effects of BdkrB2 receptor knockout together with gestational high salt stress on collecting duct gene expression pattern.

Project description:BackgroundGlandular organs require the development of a correctly patterned epithelial tree. These arise by iterative branching: early branches have a stereotyped anatomy, while subsequent branching is more flexible, branches spacing out to avoid entanglement. Previous studies have suggested different genetic programs are responsible for these two classes of branches.ResultsHere, working with the urinary collecting duct tree of mouse kidneys, we show that the transition from the initial, stereotyped, wide branching to narrower later branching is independent from previous branching events but depends instead on the proximity of other branch tips. A simple computer model suggests that a repelling molecule secreted by branches can in principle generate a well-spaced tree that switches automatically from wide initial branch angles to narrower subsequent ones, and that co-cultured trees would distort their normal shapes rather than colliding. We confirm this collision-avoidance experimentally using organ cultures, and identify BMP7 as the repelling molecule.ConclusionsWe propose that self-avoidance, an intrinsically error-correcting mechanism, may be an important patterning mechanism in collecting duct branching, operating along with already-known mesenchyme-derived paracrine factors.
