Project description:Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) exist in a dormant state, and progressively lose regenerative potency as they undergo successive divisions. Why this functional decline occurs and how this information is encoded is unclear. To better understand how this information is stored, we performed RNA sequencing on HSC populations differing only in their divisional history. Comparative analysis revealed that genes upregulated with divisions are enriched for lineage commitment factors, and are regulated by cell cycle-associated transcription factors, indicating that proliferation itself drives primitive hematopoietic lineage priming. In contrast, downregulated genes are associated with an HSC signature and are targeted by the Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2). We find that Ezh2 targets HSC signature genes for repression, and a divisional history-dependent switch from Ezh1 to Ezh2 underlies HSC decline with progressive divisions. Thus cell divisions drive lineage priming and Ezh2 accumulation, which represses HSC signature genes and consolidates information on divisional history into memory.

Comparative analysis revealed that genes upregulated with divisions are enriched for lineage genes and regulated by cell-cycle-associated transcription factors, suggesting that proliferation itself drives lineage priming. Downregulated genes are, however, associated with an HSC signature and targeted by the Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2). The PRC2 catalytic subunits Ezh1 and Ezh2 promote and suppress the HSC state, respectively, and successive divisions cause a switch from Ezh1 to Ezh2 dominance. We propose that cell divisions drive lineage priming and Ezh2 accumulation, which represses HSC signature genes to consolidate information on divisional history into memory.

Project description:The cell cycle is ordered by a controlled network of kinases and phosphatases. To generate gametes via meiosis, two distinct and sequential chromosome segregation events occur without an intervening S phase. How canonical cell cycle controls are modified for meiosis is not well understood. Here, using highly synchronous budding yeast populations, we reveal how the global proteome and phosphoproteome change during the meiotic divisions. While protein abundance changes are limited to key cell cycle regulators, dynamic phosphorylation changes are pervasive. Our data indicate that two waves of cyclin-dependent kinase and Polo (Cdc5Polo) kinase activity drive successive meiotic divisions. These two distinct phases of phosphorylation are ensured by the meiosis-specific Spo13 protein, which rewires the phosphoproteome. Spo13 binds to Cdc5Polo to promote phosphorylation in meiosis I, particularly of substrates containing a variant of the canonical Cdc5Polo motif. Overall, our findings reveal that a master regulator of meiosis directs the activity of a kinase to change the phosphorylation landscape and elicit a developmental cascade.

Project description:Blood formation is believed to occur through stepwise progression of haematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) following a tree-like hierarchy of oligo-, bi- and unipotent progenitors. However, this model is based on the analysis of predefined flow-sorted cell populations. Here we integrated flow cytometric, transcriptomic and functional data at single-cell resolution to quantitatively map early differentiation of human HSCs towards lineage commitment. During homeostasis, individual HSCs gradually acquire lineage biases along multiple directions without passing through discrete hierarchically organized progenitor populations. Instead, unilineage-restricted cells emerge directly from a 'continuum of low-primed undifferentiated haematopoietic stem and progenitor cells' (CLOUD-HSPCs). Distinct gene expression modules operate in a combinatorial manner to control stemness, early lineage priming and the subsequent progression into all major branches of haematopoiesis. These data reveal a continuous landscape of human steady-state haematopoiesis downstream of HSCs and provide a basis for the understanding of haematopoietic malignancies.

Project description:Primitive neural stem cells (NSCs) could be derived from pluripotent mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells, and then differentiate into definitive-type neural stem cells which resemble NSCs obtained from the central nervous system. Hence, primitive NSCs define an early stage of neural induction and provide a model to understand the mechanism that controls initial neural commitment. In this study, we performed microarray assay to analyze the global transcriptional profiles in mouse ES cell-derived primitive and definitive NSCs and to depict the molecular changes during the multi-staged neural differentiation process. Primitive NSCs derived directly from ESCs in Lif (p-NSC_L), primitive NSCs that were sub-cultured in the presence of Lif and FGF (p-NSC_LF), as well as definitive NSCs derived from primitive NSCs in medium containing FGF and EGF, were collected for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. Mouse ESCs and NSCs obtained from mouse embryonic brain (E11.5) were included for controls. For each cell type, we collected two biological replicate samples for microarray analysis.

Project description:MYB is well recognized to be a key regulator of definitive hematopoiesis that plays an important role in the maintenance and multilineage differentiation of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). In the vertebrate developmental context, MYB is widely regarded dispensable for primitive hematopoiesis but critically required for the development of definitive hematopoiesis. To explore the role of MYB in human hematopoietic development we have inactivated the gene by bi-allelic TALEN-supported gene targeting in several lines of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), and subjected these cells to hematopoietic differentiation in well-defined cell culture conditions. Venus gene reporter was inserted into the knock-in allele to monitor MYB expression during the course of the hESC/iPSC differentiation. The gene reporter system showed that MYB is specifically expressed during hematopoietic commitment in the earliest primitive blood cells. Moreover, the level of MYB expression was highest at the commitment stage of differentiation and significantly decreased at the maturations stage. We found that MYB was not required for initial hematopoietic commitment of nascent mesoderm and emergence of primitive, yolk sac-type human hematopoietic progenitors. However, inactivation of MYB severely abrogated proliferation of the primitive erythroid and mixed erythroid-macrophage-megakaryocyte progenitors. In addition, MYB-negative hESC/iPSC lines demonstrated major defects in myeloid cell development and completely failed to generate mature granulocytes. Transposon-mediated rescue of MYB expression in MYB-null cells efficiently restored both the primitive hematopoietic progenitors and immature myeloid cells. Our data indicate that in contrast to its previously attributed exclusive role in definitive hematopoiesis, MYB is indispensable for primitive human hematopoiesis.

Project description:Stem cells balance cellular fates through asymmetric and symmetric divisions in order to self-renew or to generate downstream progenitors. Symmetric commitment divisions in stem cells are required for rapid regeneration during tissue damage and stress. The control of symmetric commitment remains poorly defined. N6-methyladenosine (m6A), the most abundant posttranscriptional mRNA modification controls cellular states and its abundance is dysregulated in cancer. Here we show that mRNA methylation controls symmetric commitment and cell identity of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). Using single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) in combination with transcriptomic profiling of HSPCs (hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells) from control and m6A methyltransferase Mettl3 conditional knockout mice, we found that m6A-deficient HSC fail to symmetrically differentiate. Dividing HSCs are expanded and are blocked in an intermediate state that molecularly and functionally resembles multipotent progenitors. Mechanistically, RNA methylation controls Myc mRNA abundance in differentiating HSCs. Importantly, we identified MYC as a new marker for HSC asymmetric and symmetric commitment. Furthermore, forced expression of MYC rescued m6A’s requirement for engraftment indicating its importance in the early stage of HSC cellular fate. Overall our results indicate that RNA methylation is critical for normal blood homeostasis and may provide a general mechanism for how stem cells regulate differentiation fate choice.

Project description:Kidney development depends on a balance of nephron progenitor self-renewal and commitment. Here we examine how cells shift from a motile progenitor state to a static committed state during nephrogenesis. Cells that express Wnt4, an early marker of commitment, give rise to both the nephron lineage and a migrating sub-population that may re-enter the progenitor pool. Single cell transcriptional profiling reveals Wnt4-lineage cells across a range of transcriptional states, including cells that return to an uninduced progenitor state.
