Project description:The liver is a central organ for metabolism and hepatocytes are the main cell type responsible for most of its functions. Several previous studies investigated the cell types involved in tissue homeostasis and regeneration, however, the mechanisms underlying post-natal liver growth and establishment of the mature hepatocyte phenotypes remain to be fully understood. Here we investigate liver tissue dynamics in mice during growth and adulthood, by spatial transcriptomics, clonal analysis, and lineage tracing. We observe the progressive establishment of metabolic zonation of hepatocytes following weaning, with the specification of the centrilobular identity only in adults. We report that only a fraction of hepatocytes proliferate in the newborn liver, generating most of the adult tissue, and that preferential gene editing of the more proliferating hepatocytes allows expansion of the genetically engineered liver area. We also describe age-dependent differences in the efficiency and distribution of lentiviral in vivo gene delivery, with higher efficiency of gene transfer in young compared to adult animals and a skewed localization within the liver lobule. We identify high proteasome activity in the peri-central lobular area as the major determinant of the observed outcome and successfully revert it by proteasomal inhibition before vector administration. Overall, our findings provide new insights into the spatiotemporal dynamics of hepatocytes during post-natal growth, which extend our understanding of liver biology and have important implications for therapeutic applications.

Project description:The liver is a central organ for physiology and metabolism, with hepatocytes being the main cell type responsible for most of its functions. Several previous studies investigated the cell types involved in tissue homeostasis and regeneration, however the mechanisms underlying post-natal liver growth and establishment of the mature hepatocyte phenotypes remain to be fully understood. Moreover, genetic modification of hepatocytes is emerging as a promising therapeutic approach, particularly for genetic diseases of the coagulation system and hepatic metabolism. Here, we investigate liver tissue dynamics in mice during post-natal growth and turnover in adulthood, by spatial transcriptomics, clonal analysis, and lineage tracing. We observe progressive establishment of metabolic zonation of hepatocytes and that only a fraction of hepatocytes proliferates in the newborn liver, generating most of the adult tissue. We assess the impact of these changes on both in vivo liver gene transfer and gene editing. We show that the age at treatment affects both the efficiency and lobule distribution of lentiviral vector-mediated gene transfer, and that preferential targeting of the more proliferating hepatocytes allows expansion of the genetically modified liver area. Overall, our findings provide new insights into the spatio-temporal dynamics of the liver during post-natal growth and hepatocyte heterogeneity, with broad implications for liver biology and therapeutic applications.

Project description:Liver regeneration is an extraordinarily complex process involving a variety of factors; however, the role of chromatin protein in hepatocyte proliferation is largely unknown. In this study, we investigated the functional role of high-mobility group box 2 (HMGB2), a chromatin protein in liver regeneration using wild-type and HMGB2-knockout (KO) mice. Liver tissues were sampled after 70% partial hepatectomy (PHx), and analyzed by immunohistochemistry using various markers of cell proliferation, including Ki-67, PCNA, cyclin D1, cyclin B1, EdU and pH3S10. In WT mice, hepatocyte proliferation was strongly correlated with the spatiotemporal expression of HMGB2; however, cell proliferation was significantly delayed in hepatocytes of HMGB2-KO mice. Quantitative PCR demonstrated that cyclin D1 and cyclin B1 mRNAs were significantly decreased in HMGB2-KO mice livers. Interestingly, hepatocyte size was significantly larger in HMGB2-KO mice at 36-72 h after PHx, and these results suggest that hepatocyte hypertrophy appeared in parallel with delayed cell proliferation. In vitro experiments demonstrated that cell proliferation was significantly decreased in HMGB2-KO cells. A significant delay in cell proliferation was also found in HMGB2-siRNA transfected cells. In summary, spatiotemporal expression of HMGB2 is important for regulation of hepatocyte proliferation and cell size during liver regeneration.

Project description:In this project, we isolate U1 snRNA associated proteins in Arabidopsis thaliana. We used an antisense oligonucleotide specific for the U1 snRNA and analyzed associated proteins by mass spectrometry. As a control, the same experiments were performed with U2 snRNA- and lacZ-specifc antisense oligonucleotides.

Project description:Spliceosomal snRNA are key components of small nuclear ribonucleoprotein particles (snRNPs), the building blocks of the spliceosome. The biogenesis of snRNPs is a complex process involving multiple cellular and subcellular compartments, the details of which are yet to be described. In short, the snRNA is exported to the cytoplasm as 3‘-end extended precursor (pre-snRNA), where it acquires a heptameric Sm ring. The SMN complex which catalyses this step, recruits Sm proteins and assembles them around the pre-snRNA at the single stranded Sm site. After additional modification, the complex is re-imported into the nucleus where the final maturation step occurs. Our modeling suggests that during the cytoplasmic stage of maturation pre-snRNA assumes a compact secondary structure containing Near Sm site Stem (NSS) which is not compattible with the formation of the Sm ring. To validate our in silico predictions we employed selective 2'-hydroxyl acylation analyzed by primer extension sequencing (SHAPE-Seq) on U2 snRNA in vivo, ex vivo and in vitro, and U4 pre-snRNA in vitro. For the in vivo experiment HeLa cells were incubated for 10 min at 37°C with NAI or DMSO to final concentration 200 mM. RNA was isolated using Trizol (Sigma) and 200 µl chloroform and precipitated with ethanol at -20°C overnight. For the ex vivo experiment, RNA was isolated from HeLa cells after Protease K treatment at room temperature for 45 min. After incubation, RNA was isolated using equilibrated phenol/chloroform/isoamyl alcohol buffered by folding buffer (110 mM HEPES pH 8.0, 110 mM KCl, 11 mM MgCl2) and cleaned on a PD-10 column according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Isolated RNA was treated with 100mM NAI or DMSO for 10 min at 37°C. For the in vitro experiment, U2WT and U4 pre-snRNA were transcribed by T7 polymerase followed by DNase I (30 min at 37 °C) and Proteinase K (30 min at 37°C) treatments. U2 snRNA was purified on 30 kDa Amicon columns, folded for 30 min at 37°C in 57 mM MgCl2 and incubated with 100 mM NAI at 37°C for 10 min. DMSO was used as a negative control. U4 pre-snRNA was purified on Superdex 200 Increase 10/300GL, folded for 30 min at 37°C in 60 mM MgCl2 and incubated with 100 mM NAI at 37°C for 10 min. DMSO was used as a negative control. All prepared RNA samples (in vitro, ex vivo, in vivo) were used for reverse transcription with the gene-specific primer 5’-CGTTCCTGGAGGTACTGCAA for U2 snRNA and 5’- AAAAATTCAGTCTCCG for U4 pre-snRNA. We used SHAPE MaP buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl pH 8.0, 75 mM KCl, 10 mM DTT, 0.5 mM dNTP, 6 mM MnCl2) and SuperScript II (Invitrogen). Amplicons for snRNAs were generated using gene-specific forward and reverse primers. Importantly, the primers include Nextera adaptors required for downstream library construction. PCR reaction products were cleaned using Monarch PCR&DNA Clean-up Kits. Remaining Illumina adaptor sequences were added using the PCR MasterMix and index primers provided in the NexteraXT DNA Library Preparation Kit (Illumina) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Libraries were quantified using Qubit (Invitrogen) and BioAnalyzer (Agilent). Amplicons were sequenced on a NextSeq 500/550 platform using a 150 cycle mid-output kit. All sequencing data was analyzed using the ShapeMapper 2 analysis pipeline1. The ‘—amplicon’ and ‘—primers’ flags were used, along with sequences of gene-specific handles PCR primers, to ensure primer binding sites are excluded from reactivity calculations. Default read-depth thresholds of 5000x were used. Analysis of statistically significant reactivity differences between ex vivo and in vivo-determined SHAPE reactivities was performed using the DeltaSHAPE automated analysis tool and default settings2. 1.

Project description:Cholestatic injuries, featured with regional damage around the periportal, cause considerable mortality without curative therapies. It is technically challenging to dissect regional cell-cell interactions and molecular changes to fully understand cholangiopathies. Here, we generated a high-definition atlas of spatiotemporal transcriptome during cholestatic injury and repair. Remarkably, cholangiocytes functioned as a periportal hub by integrating signals from neighboring cells. We also dissected periportal damage, spatial heterogenous reprogramming and zonal regeneration, which appeared to be strongly associated with cholangiocyte. Moreover, spatiotemporal analyses revealed a key inhibitory rheostat for hepatocyte proliferation. Together, our study provides a comprehensive resource that is instrumental to demarcate regional cholestatic injury.
