Integrated Multi-Omics Reveal Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 Restricts Human Trophoblast Induction

ABSTRACT: Human naive pluripotent stem cells have unrestricted lineage potential. Underpinning this property, naive cells are thought to lack chromatin-based lineage barriers. However, this assumption has not been tested. Here, we apply multi-omics to comprehensively define the chromatin-associated proteome, histone post-translational modifications and transcriptome of human naive and primed pluripotent stem cells. Integrating the chromatin-bound proteome and histone modification data sets reveals differences in the relative abundance and activities of distinct chromatin modules, identifying a strong enrichment of Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2)-associated H3K27me3 in naive pluripotent stem cell chromatin. Single-cell approaches and human blastoid models reveal that PRC2 activity acts as a chromatin barrier restricting the differentiation of naive cells towards the trophoblast lineage, and inhibiting PRC2 promotes trophoblast fate induction and cavity formation. Our results establish that human naive pluripotent stem cells are not epigenetically unrestricted, but instead possess chromatin mechanisms that oppose the induction of alternative cell fates. Data originating from the LC-MS/MS analysis of the histone PTMs can be consulted via this project.

Integrated Multi-Omics Reveal Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 Restricts Human Trophoblast Induction

Project description:Human naive pluripotent stem cells have unrestricted lineage potential. Underpinning this property, naive cells are thought to lack chromatin-based lineage barriers. However, this assumption has not been tested. Here, we define the chromatin-associated proteome, histone post-translational modifications and transcriptome of human naive and primed pluripotent stem cells. Our integrated analysis reveals differences in the relative abundance and activities of distinct chromatin modules. We identify a strong enrichment of Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2)-associated H3K27me3 in naive pluripotent stem cell chromatin, and H3K27me3 enrichment at promoters of lineage-determining genes, including trophoblast regulators. PRC2 activity acts as a chromatin barrier restricting the differentiation of naive cells towards the trophoblast lineage, while inhibition of PRC2 promotes trophoblast fate induction and cavity formation in human blastoids. Together, our results establish that human naive pluripotent stem cells are not epigenetically unrestricted, but instead possess chromatin mechanisms that oppose the induction of alternative cell fates.

Integrative proteomics reveals a protective role of PRC2 for the ground state pluripotent epigenome

Project description:The ground state of pluripotency is defined as a basal proliferative state free of epigenetic restriction, represented by mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs) cultured with two kinase inhibitors (so-called “2i”). Through comparison with serum-grown ESCs, we identify epigenetic features characterizing 2i ESCs by proteome profiling of chromatin including post-translational histone modifications. The most prominent difference is H3K27me3 and its enzymatic writer complex PRC2 that are highly abundant on eu- and heterochromatin in 2i ESCs, with H3K27me3 redistributing outside canonical PRC2 targets in a CpG-dependent fashion. Using PRC2-deficient 2i ESCs, we identify epigenetic crosstalk with H3K27me3, including significant increases in H4 acetylation and DNA methylation. This suggests that the unique H3K27me3 configuration protects 2i ESCs from preparation to lineage priming. Interestingly, removal of DNA methylation in PRC2-deficient 2i ESCs lacking H3K27me3 using 5-azacytidine hardly affected ESC viability and transcriptome, showing that ESCs are independent of both major repressive epigenetic marks.

Micro-topographies induce epigenetic reprogramming and quiescence in human mesenchymal stem cells

Project description:Biomaterials can control cell and nuclear morphology. Since the shape of the nucleus influences chromatin architecture, gene expression, and cell identity, surface topography can control cell phenotype. This study explores how surface topography influences nuclear morphology, histone modifications, and expression of histone-associated proteins through advanced histone mass spectrometry and microarray analysis. We found that nuclear confinement is associated with loss of both histone acetylation and nucleoli abundance, while pathway analysis revealed a substantial reduction in gene expression associated with chromosome organization. In light of previous observations where we found a decrease in proliferation and metabolism induced by micro-topographies, we connect these findings with a quiescent phenotype in mesenchymal stem cells, as further shown by a reduction of ribosomal proteins and the maintenance of multipotency on micro-topographies after long-term culture conditions. Furthermore, this influence of micro-topographies on nuclear morphology and proliferation was reversible, as shown by a full return of proliferation when re-cultured on a flat surface. Our findings provide novel insights on how biophysical signaling influences nuclear organization and subsequent cellular phenotype.

An unexpected histone-binding activity for the MIER1 histone deacetylase complex suggests a potential chaperone function.

Project description:Histone deacetylases 1 and 2 (HDAC1/2) serve as the catalytic subunit of six distinct families of nuclear complexes. These complexes repress gene transcription through removing acetyl groups from lysine residues in histone tails. In addition to the deacetylase subunit, these complexes typically contain transcription factor and/or chromatin binding activities. The MIER:HDAC complex has hitherto been poorly characterized. Here we show that MIER1 unexpectedly co-purifies with an H2A:H2B histone dimer. We show that MIER1 is also able to bind a complete histone octamer. Intriguingly, we found that a larger MIER1:HDAC1:BAHD1:C1QBP complex additionally co-purifies with an intact nucleosome on which H3K27 is either di- or tri-methylated. Together this suggests that the MIER1 complex acts downstream of PRC2 to expand regions of repressed chromatin and could potentially deposit histone octamer onto nucleosome-depleted regions of DNA.

Histone post translational modification mass sprectrometry SUZ12 exon 4 cell lines

Project description:We investigate the contribution of each SUZ12 isoform on PRC2 activity on chromatin using our different ESC lines. As an additional comparison for ∆ex4 cells (SUZ12-S), we included an ESC clone in which an unsuccessful CRISPR editing event resulted in a mutant allele with nearly constitutive splicing of exon 4 (herein, CSex4) and normal Suz12 expression levels (expressing only SUZ12-L). First, we profiled H3K27 bulk PTMs by WB and observed that, while CSex4 cells showed no major differences to control cells, ∆ex4 cells displayed lower levels of H3K27me2 and -me3, with higher levels of mono-methylation and acetylation. Similar results were obtained when comparing SUZ12-L and SUZ12-S ESC rescue lines. To validate these findings with an antibody-independent technique, and to additionally profile other histone PTMs, we analysed these cells with histone-MS. In line with the previous estimates26, WT cells displayed approximately 85% of H3K27 methylation. This proportion was largely similar in CSex4 cells, while it dropped to ~50% in ∆ex4 cells, with H3K27me2 and -me3 being the most affected modifications. Notably, H3K27me2/3 loss in ∆ex4 cells occurred at histone peptides regardless of their H3K36 methylation status. Moreover, the global H3K36 methylation rates were not affected in either CSex4 or ∆ex4 cells (Figure S4C), and no major changes in methylation or acetylation levels were observed at other residues. Importantly, reintroduction of SUZ12-L in KO cells rescued a higher degree of methylation compared to SUZ12-S. Overall, these results indicate that SUZ12-S alone is unable to maintain global physiological levels of H3K27 methylation; rather SUZ12-L is also necessary for this task.

Large scale toxicoepigenetics on histones: a mass spectrometry-based screening assay applied to developmental toxicity

Project description:Toxicoepigenetics is an emerging field that studies the toxicological impact of compounds on protein expression through heritable, non-genetic mechanisms, such as histone post-translational modifications (hPTMs). Due to substantial progress in the large-scale study of hPTMs, integration into the field of toxicology is a promising addition that offers the opportunity to gain novel insights into toxicological phenomena. Moreover, there is a growing demand for high-throughput human-based in vitro assays for toxicity testing and especially for developmental toxicity. Consequently, we developed a mass spectrometry based proof-of-concept to develop an assay to screen the histone code and hence detecting multiple hPTMs changes simultaneously in human embryonic stem cells. To prove the applicability and performance, we first validated the untargeted workflow with valproic acid (VPA), a histone deacetylase inhibitor. These results demonstrate that our workflow is capable of mapping the hPTM-dynamics, with a general increase in acetylations as an internal control. To illustrate the scalability, the workflow was applied on a proof-of-concept dose-response library of a total of ten compounds with either i) a known effect on the hPTMs (BIX-01294, 3-Deazaneplanocin A, Trichostatin A, and VPA), ii) a presumed developmental toxicity, including compounds of abuse (Caffeine, Ethanol, Nicotine, Methotrexate, and All-trans retinoic acid), or iii) no proven embryotoxicity (Penicillin G). In conclusion, we show that toxicoepigenetic screening on histones is feasible and yields very rich data that holds great potential, not only for applications in the pharmaceutical industry, but also for environmental toxicity and food safety.

Comprehensive Histone Epigenetics (CHEpi): A mass spectrometry based screening assay to measure epigenetic toxicity

Project description:Epigenetics have taken center stage in the study of diseases such as cancer, diabetes, and neurodegeneration. For nearly thirty years, it has been known that cancer cells exhibit abnormal DNA methylation patterns. In contrast, the large scale analysis of histone posttranslational modifications (hPTMs) has lagged behind because classically, histone modification analysis has relied on site specific antibody-based techniques. Mass spectrometry (MS) is a technique that holds the promise to picture the histone code comprehensively in a single experiment. Therefore, we developed an MS-based method that is capable of tracking all possible hPTMs in an untargeted approach. In this way, trends in single and combinatorial hPTMs can be reported and enable prediction of the epigenetic toxicity of compounds. Moreover, this method is based on the use of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs), thereby omitting the need to sacrifice laboratory animals. Improving the workflow and the user-friendliness of the assay is an ongoing effort. Still, this novel toxicoepigenetic assay and the data it generates holds great potential for, among others, pharmaceutical industry, food science, clinical diagnostics and, environmental toxicity screening.

Unique structural configuration of EV-DNA primes Kupffer cell-mediated anti-tumor immunity to prevent metastatic progression

Project description:Extracellular vesicles (EVs) transport biomolecules that mediate intercellular communication. We previously showed that EVs contain DNA (EV-DNA) representing the entire genome. However, the mechanism of EV-DNA packaging and its role in cancer remains elusive. Here, we demonstrate that the majority of DNA is localized on the vesicle surface and associated with uniquely modified and cleaved histones. We conducted a genome-wide CRISPR knockout screen, which revealed that immune developmental pathways and genes, including APAF1 and NCF1, regulated EV-DNA packaging. We further demonstrated in colorectal cancer models that uptake of EVs and EV-DNA by Kupffer cells (KC) activated DNA damage responses. This activation re-wired KC cytokine production and generated tertiary lymphoid structures in pre-metastatic livers, thereby suppressing metastasis. Conversely, loss of APAF1 decreased EV-DNA packaging and promoted liver metastasis. Quantifying EV-DNA in colorectal cancer biopsies revealed that EV-DNA could possibly serve as a predictive biomarker for metastatic risk.

Complete loss of H3K9 methylation dissolves mouse heterochromatin organization

Project description:Histone H3 lysine 9 (H3K9) methylation is a central epigenetic modification that defines heterochromatin from unicellular to multicellular organisms. In mammalian cells, H3K9 methylation can be catalyzed by at least six distinct SET domain enzymes: Suv39h1/Suv39h2, Eset1/Eset2 and G9a/Glp. We used mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) with a conditional mutation for Eset1 and introduced progressive deletions for the other SET domain genes by CRISPR/Cas9 technology. Compound mutant MEFs for all 6 SET domain methyltransferase (KMT) genes lack all H3K9 methylation states, derepress nearly all families of repeat elements and display genomic instabilities. Strikingly, the 6KO H3K9 KMT MEFs no longer maintain heterochromatin organization and have lost electron-dense heterochromatin. This is the first analysis of H3K9 methylation deficient mammalian chromatin and reveals a crucial function for H3K9 methylation in protecting heterochromatin organization and genome integrity.
