Project description:Transcriptional coactivator Mediator complex facilitates transcription of various transcription factors. Previously, we have generated Med1 conditional null mice, where a critical subunit of Mediator, Med1, is removed from keratinocytes. Here we present evidence that ablation of Med1 accelerated epidermal regeneration after injury. As bulge keratinocyte stem cells are important contributors to regenerate epidermis, we first analyzed properties of stem cells in Med1 null mice. BrdU long retaining analysis revealed that deletion of Med1 still maintained quiescence of bulge keratinocyte stem cells, despite of general hyperplasia observed in Med1 deficient keratinocytes. Gene expression analysis demonstrated that a series of niche matrix proteins decreased in Med1 deficient keratinocytes. In contrast, the expression of stem cell marker Sox9 was not altered, suggesting stem cells are present but activated because of abnormal niche surrounding stem cells. In addition, Med1 deletion suppressed injury induced inflammatory reaction, which indirectly regulates epidermal regeneration. We also indicated that TGFβ1 significantly decreased in both bulge and epidermal keratinocytes upon Med1 deletion. Our study demonstrates that coactivator Med1 has a critical role to maintain bulge stem cells and epidermal regeneration presumably through regulation in TGFβ signaling. n=3 WT and KO (each group contains keratinocytes isolated from adult skins excised from 2 mice)

Project description:Cell fate is defined by specific transcriptional program. Here, we provide evidence that the transcriptional coactivator, Mediator 1 (MED1), is critical in determining the cell fate of ectodermal epithelia. MED1 ablation disrupted enamel formation and generated hair adjacent to the incisors. Deletion of MED1 altered the differentiation of dental epithelia to one expressing epidermal and hair genes similar to the skin. The cellular switch from dental to epidermal/hair lineage was characterized by abnormalities in MED1 deficient dental epithelial stem cells residing in cervical loop. MED1 deficiency caused a failure of dental epithelial stem cells to commit to the dental stratum intermedium regulated by Notch signaling. Instead, MED1 deficient cells retained stem cell potentials expressing Sox2. These cells were eventually adopted an epidermal fate probably through calcium provided through capillary networks, which is originally utilized for enamel formation. Our results demonstrate that MED1 regulates Sox2/Notch1 regulated cell lineage determination in dental epithelia. Our study also shows a potential to regenerate hairs by using genetically engineered dental tissues or cells outside of the skin. n=3 WT and KO (each sample contain dissected dental tissues from 3 mice combined)
