Project description:Purpose: Investigate the transcriptomic landscape throughout the time course of murine digit regeneration after level-dependent amputation. Methods: The terminal phalanx bone of hind limb digits was subjected to either a distal amputation (25% bone length loss) or proximal amputation (65% bone length loss). Total RNA was isolated from bone and fibrous tissues distal to the distal interphalangeal joint at 12, 14, and 21 days post-amputation (DPA). mRNA library was sequenced using Illumina HiSeq 3000. Trimmed reads were aligned to the mouse genome mm10 and batch-corrected. Results: A limb-specific developmental signaling pathway is transiently upregulated at 14 DPA after distal amputation, corresponding with regeneration of digit tip tissues. Absence of a limb-specific pathway after proximal amputation corresponded with minimal regeneration and fibrotic scarring. Conclusions: Digit regeneration is a level-dependent and spatiotemporally controlled process, with distal and proximal amputations showing significant differences in gene expression and tissue regrowth over time.

Project description:The distal mouse digit tip undergoes complex tissue regeneration following amputation, a process facilitated by the formation of a cellular structure called the blastema. Through single-cell RNA sequencing of the blastema, we identified the gene Mest (mesoderm specific transcript) highly expressed in a subset of blastemal fibroblasts. To determine if Mest expression is necessary for mouse digit tip regeneration, we analyzed Mest wildtype (WT) versus homozygous knockout (KO) post amputation digits. Through single-cell sequencing and FACS analysis of WT and KO regenerating tissues, we determined that this phenomenon was due to a prolonged immune response in the KO digits.

Project description:Here, we investigate the origin and nature of blastema cells that regenerate the adult murine digit tip. We show that Pdgfra-expressing mesenchymal cells in uninjured digits establish the regenerative blastema and are essential for regeneration. Single cell profiling shows that the mesenchymal blastema cells are distinct from both uninjured digit and embryonic limb/digit Pdgfra-positive cells. This unique blastema state is environmentally determined; dermal fibroblasts transplanted into the regenerative, but not non-regenerative, digit express blastema markers and contribute to bone regeneration. Moreover, lineage tracing with single cell profiling indicates that endogenous osteoblasts/osteocytes acquire a blastema mesenchymal transcriptional state and contribute to both dermis and bone regeneration. Thus, mammalian digit tip regeneration occurs via a distinct adult mechanism where the regenerative environment promotes acquisition of a unique blastema state that allows cells from tissues like bone to contribute to regeneration of other mesenchymal tissues such as the dermis.

Project description:Innate regeneration following digit tip amputation is one of the few examples of epimorphic regeneration in mammals. Digit tip regeneration is mediated by the blastema, the same structure invoked during limb regeneration in some lower vertebrates. By genetic lineage analyses in mice, the digit tip blastema has been defined as a population of heterogeneous, lineage restructed progenitor cells. These previous studies, however, do not comprehensively evaluate blastema heterogeneity or address lineage restruction of closely related cell types. Here we report single cell RNA sequencing of over 38,000 cells from mouse digit tip blastemas and unamputated control digit tips and generate an atlas of the cell types participating in digit tip regeneration.

Project description:Mammalian digit tip regeneration is linked to the presence of nail tissue, but a nail-explicit model is missing. Here, we report that nail-less double-ventral digits of ΔLARM1/2 mutants that lack limb-specific Lmx1b enhancers, fail to regenerate. To separate the nail’s effect from the lack of DV polarity, we also interrogate double-dorsal double-nail digits and show that they regenerate. Thus, DV polarity is not a prerequisite for regeneration and the nail requirement is supported. Transcriptomic comparison between wild-type and non-regenerative ΔLARM1/2 mutant blastemas reveals differential up-regulation of vascularization and connective tissue functional signatures in wild-type versus upregulation of inflammation in the mutant. These results, together with the finding of Lmx1b expression in the postnatal dorsal dermis underneath the nail and uniformly in the regenerative blastema opens the possibility of additional Lmx1b roles in the progression of digit tip regeneration, in addition to the indirect effect of mediating the formation of the nail.

By genetic lineage analyses in mice, the digit tip blastema has been defined as a population of heterogeneous, lineage restructed progenitor cells. These previous studies, however, do not comprehensively evaluate blastema heterogeneity or address lineage restruction of closely related cell types. Here we report one additional single cell RNA sequencing sample (28 days post-amputation) to add to our already published 38,000 cells from mouse digit tip blastemas and unamputated control digit tips used to generate an atlas of the cell types participating in digit tip regeneration.

Project description:Here, we have asked why the nail base is essential for mammalian digit tip regeneration, focusing on the inductive nail mesenchyme. We identify a transcriptional signature for these cells that includes Lmx1b, and show that the Lmx1b-expressing nail mesenchyme is essential for blastema formation. We use a combination of Lmx1bCreERT2-based lineage tracing and single cell transcriptional analyses to show that the nail mesenchyme contributes cells for two pro-regenerative mechanisms. One group of cells maintains their identity and regenerates the new nail mesenchyme. A second group contributes specifically to the dorsal blastema, loses their nail mesenchyme phenotype, acquires a blastema transcriptional state that is highly similar to blastema cells of other origins and ultimately contributes to regeneration of the dorsal but not ventral dermis and bone. Thus, the regenerative necessity for an intact nail base is explained, at least part by a requirement for the inductive nail mesenchyme.

Project description:Multi-tissue regenerative capacity is lost in adult mammals with the exception of the distal digit, which regenerates via largely-uncharacterized mechanisms. Here, we demonstrate that following adult mouse distal digit removal, nerve-associated Schwann cell precursors (N-SCPs) dedifferentiate and secrete growth factors that promote expansion of the blastema and digit regeneration. Specifically, when N-SCPs were dysregulated or ablated, mesenchymal precursor proliferation in the blastema was decreased, nail and bone regeneration were impaired, and regeneration could be rescued by transplantation of exogenous N-SCPs. We show that N-SCPs secreted factors that promoted self-renewal of mesenchymal precursors, and we used transcriptomic and proteomic analysis to define candidate factors. Two of these, oncostatin M (OSM) and PDGF-AA, were made by N-SCPs in the regenerating digit, and rescued the deficits in regeneration caused by loss of N-SCPs due to denervation. Since nerves innervate every peripheral tissue, these results have broad implications for mammalian tissue repair and regeneration.
