The multi-lineage transcription factor ISL1 controls cardiomyocyte cell fate through interaction with NKX2.5

ABSTRACT: Congenital heart disease (CHD) is a leading cause of infant mortality in the US and is commonly thought to arise from perturbations of transcription factors (TFs) during cardiac development. ISLET1 (ISL1) is one such TF, although it also directs differentiation of other cell types, including motor neuron progenitors (MNPs) and pancreatic islet cells. Although cellular specificity of ISL1 function is likely achieved through combinatorial interactions, its essential cardiac interacting partners are unknown. By assaying ISL1 genomic occupancy in human iPSC-derived cardiac progenitors (CPs) or MNPs and leveraging the deep learning approach BPNet, we identified cell-type-specific motifs of other TFs that predicted ISL1 occupancy in each lineage, with the NKX2.5 motif being most closely associated to ISL1 in CPs. We demonstrated ISL1 forms a protein complex with NKX2.5 in CPs, and the two regulated similar gene networks. NKX2.5 co-occupied more than half of ISL1-bound loci, and ISL1 was dependent on NKX2.5 for CP-specific localization. Furthermore, overexpression of NKX2.5 in MNPs led to ISL1 redistribution to CP-specific loci. These results reveal how ISL1 can guide differential lineage choices through a combinatorial code that dictates genomic occupancy and transcription.

Multi-omics profiling visualizes dynamics of cardiac development and functions [ChIP-Seq]

Project description:Cardiogenesis is a tightly-regulated dynamic process through a continuum of differentiation and proliferation events. Transcriptional activation is the predominant early step for initiating cardiac formation in mammals. We then applied ChIP-seq analysis against histone modifications H3K4me1, H3K4me3, H3K27ac and RNAPol II in E10.5 mouse hearts to evaluate the instant activity of transcription factors, which is believed to serve as a powerful tool to study regulatory processes.

Gastrocnemius muscle-Deletion of TECRL promotes skeletal muscle repair

Project description:Myogenic regeneration relies on the proliferation and differentiation of satellite cells. TECRL (Trans-2,3-Enoyl-CoA Reductase Like) is an endoplasmic reticulum protein only expressed in cardiac and skeletal muscle. However, its role in myogenesis remains unknown. We show that TECRL expression is increased in response to ischemic injury. Satellite cell-specific deletion of TECRL enhances muscle repair by increasing the expression of EGR2 through the activation of the ERK1/2 signaling pathway, which in turn promotes the expression of PAX7. We further showed that TECRL deletion led to the upregulation of the histone acetyltransferase general control non-derepressible 5 (GCN5), which enhances the transcription of EGR2 through acetylation.

Transcription profiling of human MCF7 cells after EGF, HRG stimulation

Project description:Sharing common ErbB/HER receptor signaling pathway, heregulin (HRG) induces differentiation of MCF-7 breast cancer cells while epidermal growth factor (EGF) elicits proliferation. Although the cell fate led by those two ligands was totally different, the gene expression profile in early transcription was unexpectedly qualitatively similar, suggesting that the gene expression in late transcription, not early transcription, may reflect a respect of ligand specificity. In this study, based on the data from time-course microarray of all human genes, we predicted and determined a series of transcription factors which may control HRG-specific timed-late transcription and cellular differentiation of MCF-7 cells. Validation analyses showed that one of activator protein 1 (AP-1) families appeared just after c-Fos expression, another AP-1 family partner, induced expression of another transcription factor through activation of AP-1 complex. Furthermore, expression of this transcription factors caused suppression of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) phosphorylation which is sustainedly regulated by HRG-initiated ErbB signaling. Overall, our analysis indicated an importance of formation of timed-transcriptional regulatory network and its function to control upstream signaling pathway through negative feedback for cellular differentiation. Experiment Overall Design: MCF7 human breast cancer cells were stimulated by the growth hormone (epidermal growth factor (EGF) or heregulin (HRG)). Control was set as non-treated cells.

Dynamic BAF chromatin remodeling complex subunit inclusion promotes temporally distinct gene expression programs in cardiogenesis

Project description:Chromatin remodeling complexes instruct cellular differentiation and lineage specific transcription. The BRG1/BRM associated factor (BAF) complexes are important for several aspects of differentiation. We show that the catalytic subunit Brg1 has a specific role in cardiac precursors (CPs) to initiate cardiac gene expression programs and repress non-cardiac expression. Using immunoprecipitation immunopurification with mass spectrometry we determined the dynamic composition of BAF complexes during mammalian cardiac differentiation, identifying several cell-type specific subunits. We focused on the CP- and cardiomyocytes (CM)-enriched subunits BAF60c (SMARCD3) and BAF170 (SMARCC2). Baf60c and Baf170 co-regulate gene expression with Brg1 in CPs, and in CMs their loss results in broadly deregulated cardiac gene expression. BRG1, BAF60, and BAF170 modulate chromatin accessibility, to either promote accessibility at activated genes, while closing up chromatin at repressed genes. BAF60c and BAF170 are required for proper BAF complex composition, and BAF170 loss leads to retention of BRG1 at CP-specific enhancers. Thus, dynamic interdependent BAF complex subunit assembly modulates chromatin states and thereby participates in directing temporal gene expression programs in cardiogenesis.

CHD4 and the NuRD complex directly control cardiac sarcomere formation

Project description:Cardiac development relies on proper cardiomyocyte differentiation including expression and assembly of cell-type specific actomyosin subunits into a functional cardiac sarcomere. Control of this process involves not only promoting expression of cardiac sarcomere subunits but also repressing expression of non-cardiac myofibril paralogs. This level of transcriptional control requires broadly expressed multiprotein machines that modify and remodel the chromatin landscape to restrict transcription machinery access. Prominent among these is the Nucleosome Remodeling and Deacetylase (NuRD) complex, which includes the catalytic core subunit CHD4. Here, we demonstrate that direct CHD4-mediated repression of skeletal and smooth muscle myofibril isoforms is required for normal cardiac sarcomere formation, function, and embryonic survival early in gestation. Through transcriptomic and system genome-wide analyses of CHD4 localization, we identified novel CHD4 binding sites in smooth muscle myosin heavy chain, fast skeletal α-actin, and the fast skeletal troponin complex genes. We further demonstrate that in the absence of CHD4, cardiomyocytes in the developing heart form a hybrid muscle cell that contains cardiac, skeletal and smooth muscle myofibril components. These misexpressed paralogs intercalate into the nascent cardiac sarcomere to disrupt sarcomere formation and cause impaired cardiac function in utero. These results demonstrate the genomic and physiological requirements for CHD4 in mammalian cardiac development.

ISL1 and JMJD3 synergistically control cardiac differentiation of embryonic stem cells (RNA-Seq)

Project description:ISL1 is expressed in cardiac progenitor cells and plays critical roles in cardiac lineage differentiation and heart development. Cardiac progenitor cells hold great potential for clinical and translational applications. However the mechanisms underlying ISL1 function in cardiac progenitor cells have not been fully elucidated. Here we uncover a hierarchical role of ISL1 in cardiac progenitor cells, showing that ISL1 directly regulates hundreds of potential downstream targets that are implicated in cardiac differentiation, through an epigenetic mechanism. Specifically, ISL1 promotes the demethylation of tri-methylation of histone H3K27 (H3K27me3) at the enhancers of key downstream target genes, including Myocd and Mef2c, which are core cardiac transcription factors. ISL1 physically interacts with JMJD3, a H3K27me3 demethylase, and conditional depletion of JMJD3 leads to impaired cardiac progenitor cell differentiation, phenocopying that of ISL1 depletion. Interestingly, ISL1 is not only responsible for the recruitment of JMJD3 to specific target loci during cardiac progenitor differentiation, but also modulates its demethylase activity. In conclusion, ISL1 and JMJD3 partners to alter the cardiac epigenome, instructing gene expression changes that drive cardiac differentiation.

Multi-modal analysis of human Plasma-cells

Project description:Plasma cells are key components of humoral immunity by secreting antibodies and providing protection against pathogens. These cells can be of IgM, IgA, or IgG subclass and migrate to class-specific niches. Localization and rareness of plasma cells make it challenge to define subclass-specific molecular hallmarks. Here, we describe how in-vitro differentiation of peripheral B-cells results in antibody-secreting plasma cells. Using a single-cell multi-modal sequencing approach (RAID) we find subclass-specific hallmark transcriptional profiles, surface protein expression and signaling pathway activation.

Gene expression analysis of hESC-derived-MESP1 expressing progenitors

Project description:A hESC MESP1-MCHERRY reporter line was used to isolate and study the molecular character of MESP1 expressing pre-cardiac progenitors, derived from hESC. MESP1 is a key-transcription factor for pre-cardiac mesoderm and is marking the progenitor for almost all cells of the heart. This reporter line was used to study cardiac differentiation and the derivation of early cardiac progenitors in vitro. hESCs were differentiated towards the cardiac lineage, expressing MESP1-mCherry at day 3 of differentiation. Total RNA obtained from isolated MESP1-mCherry expressing progenitors was compared to that of non-MESP1-expressing progenitors and undifferentiated hESCs in order to characterize MESP1-specific transcription factors and proteins.
