Project description:It is well-known that embryonic stem cells (ESC) are much more sensitive to replication-induced stress than differentiated cells but the underpinning mechanisms are largely unknown. H2A.X, a minor variant of H2A, constitutes only 1-10% of the mammalian genome. H2A.X plays a well-known for role in the DNA damage response and maintaining stability in the genome, including the regions frequently experiencing replication stress, such as the fragile sites. Intriguingly, several recent studies have reported that H2A.X function is elevated in ESC; and others reported that H2A.X function is provoked during cellular reprogramming (in induced pluripotent stem cells, iPSC), indicating that increased proliferation during iPS may trigger replication stress and the H2A.X DNA damage response. However, several studies of genomic instability in iPSC led to different conclusions on this important issue. For example, frequent copy number variants (CNV) were reported at the genomic regions sensitive to replication stress, such as the fragile sites. On the other hand, another study reported the lack of genomic instability in mouse iPS clones that are able to generate “all-iPS” animals in tetraploid complementation assays (4N+ iPSC), indicative of a potential link between pluripotency and genome integrity. However, whether if high level genomic instability occurs in the 4N- iPSC iPSC clones at replication stress sensitive regions is unknown. Moreover, due to the lack of mechanistic insights on genome integrity maintenance, how pluripotency and genome integrity are connected remains elusive. Here we show that H2A.X plays unexpected roles in maintaining pluripotency and genome integrity in ESC and iPSC. In ESC, it is specially enriched at genomic regions sensitive to replication stress so that it protects genome integrity thereat. Faithful H2A.X deposition is critical for genome integrity and pluripotency in iPSC. H2A.X depositions in 4N+ iPSC clones faithfully recapitulate the ESC pattern and therefore, prevent genome instability. On the other hand, insufficient H2A.X depositions in 4N- iPSC clones at such regions lead to genome instability and defects in replication stress response and DNA repair, reminiscent of the H2A.X deficient ESC. In this study, male 129sv/C57 ES cell genomic DNA was used as reference control, to identify CNV sites in iPS cell lines. And also detect H2A.X (-/-) ES cell (129/Sv) CNVs, with the H2A.X(f/f) ES cell DNA (129/Sv) as control. DNA samples were compared on NimbleGen Mouse CGH 3x720K Whole-Genome Tiling Array (Build MM9).

Project description:H2A.X native ChIP-Seq in TSC Histone Variant H2A.X Mediated Epigenetic Mechanisms are Critical for Pluripotency in ES and iPS Cells
| PRJNA245918 | ENA
Project description:With the advent of the induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) technology, how to distinguish the developmental potentials of the iPSC clones with molecular approaches becomes an imperative issue. Herein, we demonstrated that histone variant H2A.X plays an unexpected role in distinguishing the developmental potentials of iPSC. We showed that H2A.X is specifically targeted to and negatively regulates extra-embryonic lineage gene expression in embryonic stem cell (ESCs) and therefore, it prevents trophectoderm (TE) lineage differentiation under inductive conditions. ESC-specific H2A.X deposition and functions are faithfully recapitulated in the iPSC lines that support the development of “all-iPS” animals. In iPSC lines that fail to support embryonic development, aberrant H2A.X depositions result in upregulation of extra-embryonic lineage genes and predisposition to extra-embryonic tissue differentiation. In summary, our work has revealed novel epigenetic mechanisms for maintaining cell lineage commitment, which can be used to distinguish the quality of the iPSC lines.

Project description:Hematopoiesis generated from human embryonic stem cells (ES) and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS) are unprecedented resources for cell therapy. We compared hematopoietic differentiation potentials from ES and iPS cell lines originated from various donors and derived them using integrative and non-integrative vectors. Significant differences in differentiation toward hematopoietic lineage were observed among ES and iPS. The ability of engraftment of iPS or ES-derived cells in NOG mice varied among the lines with low levels of chimerism. iPS generated from ES cell-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) reproduce a similar hematopoietic outcome compared to their parental ES cell line. We were not able to identify any specific hematopoietic transcription factors that allow to distinguish between good versus poor hematopoiesis in undifferentiated ES or iPS cell lines. However, microarray analysis showed genes differentially expressed in ES and iPS cell lines according to their hematopoietic potential. These results demonstrate the influence of genetic background in variation of hematopoietic potential rather than the reprogramming process.

Project description:Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are commonly generated by transduction of Oct4, Sox2, Klf4 and Myc (OSKM) into somatic cells. Though iPSCs are pluripotent, they frequently exhibit high variation in their quality as measured by chimera contribution and tetraploid (4n) complementation. Thus, improving the quality of iPSCs is an indispensable prerequisite for future iPSC-based therapy. Here we show that one major determinant for iPSCs quality is the selection of the reprogramming factors combination. Ectopic expression of Sall4, Nanog, Esrrb and Lin28 (SNEL) in MEFs efficiently generated high quality iPSCs as compared to other combinations of factors. SNEL-iPSCs produced approximately 5 times more efficiently “all-iPSC” mice compared to OSKM-iPSCs. While differentially methylated regions, transcript number of master regulators, establishment of ESC-specific super enhancers, and global aneuploidy were comparable between the lines, aberrant expression of 1,765 genes, trisomy of chromosome 8 and abnormal H2A.X deposition were frequently observed in poor quality OSKM-iPSCs. For high-quality iPSCs, H2A.X pattern of SNEL is most similar to that of ESC, OSK and OSKM have more devoid regions than SNEL iPSCs. Compare H2A.X deposition pattern of the OSKM 4-factor iPS cell lines (4N-), SNEL 4-factor iPS cell lines (4N+) with ChIP-Seq. The same background ES cell line as the control line.

Project description:H2A.X native ChIP-Seq in ESC and iPSC: Histone Variant H2A.X Mediated Epigenetic Mechanisms are Critical for Maintaining Genome Stability and Pluripotency in ES and iPS Cells
| PRJNA181007 | ENA
Project description:Herein, we demonstrated that the cell lineage commitment is unexpectedly regulated by the novel functions of H2A.X, a histone variant which was only well-known for its role in genome integrity maintenance previously. Surprisingly, only in ESCs but not differentiated cells, H2A.X is specifically targeted to genomic regions encoding early embryonic and extra-embryonic lineage genes to repress their expression. In addition, H2A.X is also enriched at genomic regions sensitive to replication stress and maintains genomic stability thereat. Most interestingly, faithful H2A.X deposition plays critical roles in maintaining both cell lineage commitment and genome integrity in iPSC. In iPSC lines which support the development of "all-iPS" animals, H2A.X deposition faithfully recapitulates the ESC pattern and therefore, the genome stability and cell lineage commitment are maintained. In iPSC lines that fail to support embryonic development, defective H2A.X depositions result in aberrant upregulation of early embryonic and extra-embryonic lineage genes and H2A.X-dependent genome instability.

Project description:Introgressed variants from other species can be an important source of genetic variation because they may arise rapidly, can include multiple mutations on a single haplotype, and have often been pretested by selection in the species of origin. Although introgressed alleles are generally deleterious, several studies have reported introgression as the source of adaptive alleles-including the rodenticide-resistant variant of Vkorc1 that introgressed from Mus spretus into European populations of Mus musculus domesticus. Here, we conducted bidirectional genome scans to characterize introgressed regions into one wild population of M. spretus from Spain and three wild populations of M. m. domesticus from France, Germany, and Iran. Despite the fact that these species show considerable intrinsic postzygotic reproductive isolation, introgression was observed in all individuals, including in the M. musculus reference genome (GRCm38). Mus spretus individuals had a greater proportion of introgression compared with M. m. domesticus, and within M. m. domesticus, the proportion of introgression decreased with geographic distance from the area of sympatry. Introgression was observed on all autosomes for both species, but not on the X-chromosome in M. m. domesticus, consistent with known X-linked hybrid sterility and inviability genes that have been mapped to the M. spretus X-chromosome. Tract lengths were generally short with a few outliers of up to 2.7 Mb. Interestingly, the longest introgressed tracts were in olfactory receptor regions, and introgressed tracts were significantly enriched for olfactory receptor genes in both species, suggesting that introgression may be a source of functional novelty even between species with high barriers to gene flow.
