A lysine demethylase-independent function of Phf2 regulates cohesin-mediated DNA replication for neural stem cell activation

ABSTRACT: The activation of quiescent neural stem cells (qNSCs) in the dentate gyrus is required for lifelong neurogenesis. However, the mechanisms that promote the exit of neural stem cells (NSCs) from quiescence remain elusive. We demonstrate that the expression of plant homeodomain finger protein 2 (Phf2) activates the exit of postnatal mouse NSC from shallow quiescence. Loss of Phf2 prevents NSC activation and neurogenesis in postnatal 30 (P30) mice but does not decrease the label-retaining NSC pool, indicating that Phf2 is not required for the exit of NSC from quiescence. NSC-specific deletion of Phf2 modestly compromises embryonic mouse NSC proliferation without increasing apoptosis, indicating that Phf2 is crucial for embryonic development. Moreover, human cortical organoids reveal that Phf2 promotes NPC proliferation via a lysine demethylase-independent manner. Mechanistically, Phf2 directly binds to the cohesion complex via Rad21 and regulates the DNA replication in mouse NSC by associating with the cohesion complex releasing protein Wapl activity. Our study identifies the Phf2-cohesin complex mediated DNA replication for neural stem cell activation in a lysine demethylase-independent manner.

Palmitoylation of BMPR1a regulates neural stem cell fate

Project description:Neural stem cells (NSCs) generate neurons and glial cells throughout embryonic and postnatal brain development. The role of s-acylation, a reversible post-translational lipid modification of proteins, in regulating fate and activity of NSCs remains largely unknown. We here used an unbiased screening approach to identify proteins that are s-acylated in mouse NSCs.

Mammalian CDC14 control differentiation from pluripotent cells by modulating UTF1 activity on bivalent promoters

Project description:CDC14 phosphatases are critical components of the cell cycle machinery that drives exit from mitosis in yeast. However, the two mammalian paralogs, CDC14A and CDC14B, are dispensable for cell cycle progression or exit, and their function remains unclear. By generating a double Cdc14a; Cdc14b-null mouse model, we report here that CDC14 phosphatases control cell differentiation in pluripotent cells and their absence results in deficient development of the neural system. Lack of CDC14 impairs neural differentiation from embryonic stem cells (ESCs) accompanied by deficient induction of genes controlled by bivalent promoters. During ESC differentiation, CDC14 directly dephosphorylates and destabilizes Undifferentiated embryonic Transcription Factor 1 (UTF1), a critical regulator of stemness. In the absence of CDC14, increased UTF1 levels prevent the firing of bivalent promoters, resulting in defective induction of the transcriptional programs required for differentiation. These results suggest that mammalian CDC14 phosphatases function during the terminal exit from the cell cycle by modulating the transition from the pluripotent to the differentiated chromatin state, at least partially by controlling chromatin dynamics and transcription in a UTF1-dependent manner.

Pomerening2005- Model of the Xenopus Cdc2/APC System

Project description:The cell-cycle oscillator includes an essential negative-feedback loop: Cdc2 activates the anaphase-promoting complex (APC), which leads to cyclin destruction and Cdc2 inactivation. Under some circumstances, a negative-feedback loop is sufficient to generate sustained oscillations. However, the Cdc2/APC system also includes positive-feedback loops, whose functional importance we now assess. We show that short-circuiting positive feedback makes the oscillations in Cdc2 activity faster, less temporally abrupt, and damped. This compromises the activation of cyclin destruction and interferes with mitotic exit and DNA replication. This work demonstrates a systems-level role for positive-feedback loops in the embryonic cell cycle and provides an example of how oscillations can emerge out of combinations of subcircuits whose individual behaviors are not oscillatory. This work also underscores the fundamental similarity of cell-cycle oscillations in embryos to repetitive action potentials in pacemaker neurons, with both systems relying on a combination of negative and positive-feedback loops.

Geminin-regulated genes during neural fate acquisition of mouse embryonic stem cells

Project description:Formation of the complex vertebrate nervous system begins when pluripotent cells of the early embryo are directed to acquire a neural fate. Although cell intrinsic controls play an important role in this process, the molecular nature of this regulation is not well defined. Here we assessed the role for Geminin, a nuclear protein expressed in embryonic cells, in neural fate acquisition from mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells. While Geminin knockdown does not affect the ability of ES cells to maintain or exit pluripotency, we found that it significantly impairs their ability to acquire a neural fate. Conversely, Geminin overexpression promotes neural gene expression, even in the presence of growth factor signaling that antagonizes neural transcriptional responses. These data demonstrate that Geminin’s activity contributes to mammalian neural cell fate acquisition. We investigated the mechanistic basis of this phenomenon and found that Geminin maintains a hyperacetylated and open chromatin conformation at neural genes. Interestingly, recombinant Geminin protein also rapidly alters chromatin acetylation and accessibility even when Geminin is combined with nuclear extract and chromatin in vitro. These findings define a novel activity for Geminin in regulation of chromatin structure. Together, these data support a role for Geminin as a cell intrinsic regulator of neural fate acquisition that promotes expression of neural genes by regulating chromatin accessibility and histone acetylation. Mouse embryonic stem cells were differentiated for two days in N2B27 medium, with or without Doxycycline-inducible shRNAmir knockdown of Geminin and compared by microarray. Three independent experiments were conducted, using two different mouse embryonic stem cell lines for Doxycycline-inducible knockdown of Geminin. The two ES lines express unique shRNAmir sequences targeting Geminin (shRNAmir #9 and #11) to control for off-target effects.

Dual and separable roles for Ezh2 in neurogenic astroglia

Project description:The epigenetic mechanisms that enable specialized astrocytes to retain neurogenic competence throughout adult life are still poorly understood. Here we show that astrocytes that serve as neural stem cells (NSCs) in the adult mouse subventricular zone (SVZ) express the histone methyltransferase EZH2. This Polycomb repressive factor is required for neurogenesis independent of its role in SVZ NSC proliferation, as Ink4a/Arf-deficiency in Ezh2-deleted SVZ NSCs rescues cell proliferation, but neurogenesis remains defective. Olig2 is a direct target of EZH2, and repression of this bHLH transcription factor is critical for neuronal differentiation. Furthermore, Ezh2 prevents the inappropriate activation of genes that specify non-SVZ neuronal subtypes. In the human brain, SVZ cells including local astroglia also express EZH2, correlating with postnatal neurogenesis. Thus, EZH2 is an epigenetic regulator that distinguishes neurogenic SVZ astrocytes, orchestrating distinct and separable aspects of adult stem cell biology, which has important implications for regenerative medicine and oncogenesis.

Ecdysone and Mediator trigger a metabolic switch uncoupling cell cycle from cell growth to end proliferation in Drosophila neural stem cells

Project description:Stem cells are highly abundant and proliferate rapidly during early development but become a rare population in most adult organs. The molecular mechanisms causing stem cells to exit proliferation at a specific time are not well understood. Here, we show that changes in energy metabolism induced by the steroid hormone Ecdysone initiate an irreversible cascade of events leading to cell cycle exit in Drosophila neural stem cells. We show that the timely induction of oxidative phosphorylation and the mitochondrial respiratory chain are required in neuroblasts to uncouple cell cycle progression from cell growth. This results in a progressive reduction in neuroblast cell size and ultimately in terminal differentiation. Neuroblasts isolated from brain tumors fail to undergo this shrinkage process and this may explain why they are immortalized. Our findings show that cell size control can be modified by systemic hormonal signaling and reveal a unique connection between metabolism and proliferation control in stem cells.

Project description:Groucho related gene 5 (GRG5) is a multifunctional protein that has been implicated in late embryonic and postnatal mouse development. Here, we describe a previously unknown role of GRG5 in early developmental stages by analyzing its function in stem cell fate decisions. By both loss and gain of function approaches we demonstrate that ablation of GRG5 deregulates the Embryonic Stem Cell (ESC) pluripotent state whereas its overexpression leads to enhanced self-renewal and acquisition of cancer cell-like properties. A pro-oncogenic potential for GRG5 is revealed by the malignant behavior of teratomas generated from ESCs that overexpress it. Furthermore, transcriptomic analysis and cell differentiation approaches underline GRG5 as a multifaceted signaling regulator that represses mesendodermal-related genes. When ES cells exit pluripotency, GRG5 promotes neuroectodermal specification via Wnt and BMP signaling pathways suppression. Moreover, GRG5 promotes the neuronal reprogramming of fibroblasts and maintains the self-renewal of Neural Stem Cell (NSC) by sustaining the activity of Notch and Jak/Stat3 pathways. In summary, our results demonstrate that GRG5 has pleiotropic roles in stem cell biology functioning as a stemness factor and a neural fate specifier.

BAF subunit switching regulates chromatin accessibility to control cell cycle exit in the developing mammalian cortex [ATAC-seq]

Project description:mSWI/SNF or BAF chromatin regulatory complexes are dosage-sensitive regulators of human neural development frequently mutated in autism and intellectual disability. Cell cycle exit and differentiation of neural stem/progenitor cells is accompanied by BAF subunit switching to generate neuron-specific nBAF complexes. We manipulated the timing of BAF subunit exchange in vivo and found that early loss of the npBAF subunit BAF53a stalls cell cycle exit to disrupt neurogenesis. Loss of BAF53a results in decreased chromatin accessibility at specific neural transcription factor binding sites, including the pioneer factors Sox2 and Ascl1, due to Polycomb accumulation. This results in repression of cell cycle genes, thereby blocking cell cycle progression and differentiation. Cell cycle block upon Baf53a deletion could be rescued by premature expression of the nBAF subunit BAF53b but not by other major drivers of proliferation or differentiation. Wnt, EGF, FGF, Sox2, myc or Pax6 all fail to maintain proliferation in the absence of BAF53a, highlighting a novel mechanism underlying neural progenitor cell cycle exit in the continued presence of extrinsic proliferative cues.
