(Submitter supplied) Understanding the molecular mechanisms controlling early cell fate decisions in mammals is a major objective towards the development of robust methods for the differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells into clinically relevant cell types. Here, we used human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) to study specification of definitive endoderm in vitro. Using a combination of whole genome expression and ChIP-seq analyses, we established a hierarchy of transcription factors regulating endoderm specification. more...

(Submitter supplied) Activin/Nodal signalling is necessary to maintain pluripotency of human Embryonic Stem Cells (hESCs) and to induce their differentiation towards endoderm. However, the mechanisms by which Activin/Nodal signalling achieves these opposite functions remain unclear. To unravel these mechanisms, we examined the transcriptional network controlled in hESCs by Smad2 and Smad3 which represent the direct effectors of Activin/Nodal signalling. more...

(Submitter supplied) Lineage segregation in the mouse embryo is a finely controlled process dependent upon coordination of signalling pathways and transcriptional responses. We employed conditional deletion of Oct4 to investigate consequences of interference with embryonic patterning and lineage specification. Nanog becomes upregulated in the first epiblast cells to lose Oct4, leading to an expanded Nanog-positive domain. more...

(Submitter supplied) TG-interacting factor1 (Tgif1) is well-known as a transcriptional repressor in transforming growth factor beta (TGFβ) signaling pathway. Target mapping of ES cell core factors in mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells revealed that Tgif1 is occupied by Oct4 and Nanog. Moreover, recent interactome study of mouse gene regulatory regions showed a preferential regulation of Tgif1 by mouse ES cell specific enhancers. more...

(Submitter supplied) Unr (upstream of N-ras) is a cytoplasmic RNA-binding protein with cold shock domains, involved in regulation of messenger RNA stability and translation. To address the biological role of Unr, we inactivated the unr gene by homologous recombination in mice and embryonic stem (ES) cells. Embryos deficient for Unr die at mid-gestation, and the main phenotypic defects observed, growth deficiency and absence of neural tube closure, suggest a role of Unr in the balance proliferation/differentiation during early development. more...

(Submitter supplied) Core circuits of transcription factors stabilize stem and progenitor cells by suppressing genes required for differentiation. We do not know how such core circuits are reorganized during cell fate transitions to allow differentiation and lineage choice to proceed. Here, we asked how the pluripotency circuit, a core transcriptional circuit that maintains mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells in a pluripotent state, is dismantled as ES cells differentiate and choose between the neural ectodermal and mesendodermal progenitor cell fates. more...

(Submitter supplied) Transcription factor-mediated reprogramming is a powerful method to study cell fate changes. In this work, we demonstrate that the transcription factor Gata6 can initiate reprograming of multiple cell types to induced extraembryonic endoderm (iXEN) cells. Intriguingly, Gata6 is sufficient to drive iXEN cells from mouse pluripotent cells and differentiated neural cells. Furthermore, GATA6 induction in human ES (hES) cells also downregulates pluripotency gene expression and upregulates extraembryonic endoderm genes, revealing a conserved function in mediating this cell fate switch. more...

(Submitter supplied) The relationship between chromatin organization and transcriptional regulation is an area of intense investigation. We have characterized the spatial relationships between alleles of the Oct4, Sox2, and Nanog genes in single cells during the earliest stages of mouse embryonic stem cell (ESC) differentiation and during embryonic development. We describe homologous pairing of the Oct4 alleles during ESC differentiation and embryogenesis, and present evidence that pairing is correlated with the kinetics of ESC differentiation. more...

(Submitter supplied) Here we show that T-box proteins team up with chromatin modifying enzymes to drive the expression of the key lineage regulator, Eomes during endodermal differentiation of embryonic stem (ES) cells. The Eomes locus is maintained in a transcriptionally poised configuration in ES cells. During early differentiation steps, the ES cell factor Tbx3 associates with the histone demethylase Jmjd3 at the enhancer element of the Eomes locus to allow enhancer-promoter interactions. more...

(Submitter supplied) We aimed to elucidate molecular mechanisms of first lineage decision in the mouse pluripotent epiblast that segregates mesoderm and endoderm (ME) from neuroectoderm (NE). By analyzing mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and embryos deficient for two T-box (Tbx) transcription factors Eomes and Brachyury we demonstrate that this process is controlled by the changes in the chromatin accessibility of ME gene enhancers and activation of the target genes, but also direct repression the opposing pluripotency and NE gene programs.

(Submitter supplied) Nodal and Activin are morphogens of the TGFbeta superfamily of signaling molecules that direct differential cell fate decisions in a dose- and distance-dependent manner. During early embryonic development the Nodal/Activin pathway is responsible for the specification of mesoderm, endoderm, node and mesendoderm. In contradiction to this drive towards cellular differentiation, the pathway also plays important roles in the maintenance of self-renewal and pluripotency in embryonic and epiblast stem cells. more...

(Submitter supplied) Induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells can be obtained through the introduction of defined factors into somatic cells. The combination of Oct4, Sox2 and Klf4 (OSK) constitutes the minimal requirement for generating iPS cells from mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs). Through the genomic analyses of ESC genes that have roles in pluripotency and fusion-mediated somatic cell reprogramming, we identified Tbx3 as a transcription factor that significantly improves the quality of iPS cells. more...

(Submitter supplied) Induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells can be obtained through the introduction of defined factors into somatic cells. The combination of Oct4, Sox2 and Klf4 (OSK) constitutes the minimal requirement for generating iPS cells from mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs). These cells are thought to resemble embryonic stem cells (ESCs) based on global gene expression analyses; but, few studies have tested their ability and efficiency in contributing to chimerism, colonization of germ tissues, and most importantly, germ-line transmission and life-birth from iPS cells produced with tetraploid complementation. more...

(Submitter supplied) Precisely co-ordinated activation of lineage specific transcription factors direct cell fate decisions during mouse early development. The T-box transcription factor Eomes is dynamically expressed during mouse gastrulation and is a key regulator of the anterior visceral endoderm (AVE), cardiac mesoderm and definitive endoderm (DE) lineages. The cis-acting regulatory elements that direct spatiotemporally restricted Eomes expression domains have yet to be elucidated. more...
