Research Abstract |
Embryonic cells possess some plasticity that can respond to environmental or internal changes, resulting in other cell fate choice. Using Cre/loxp based genetic lineage tracing combined with gene KO strategy, we have previously shown that ptfla plays as "pancreatic determiner" during organogenesis. Expression of the key gene seems to determine the fate of undifferentiated cells, but its dosage control remained unknown. We demonstrate that Hesl-mediated Notch signal suppresses the ptfla expression whereby represses the ectopic pancreas formation in other organs. Site specific formation of ectopic pancreatic tissues in the stomach, duodenum and the bile duct observed in Hesl KO mice suggested the unidentified positive regulator of ptfla. These finding support the hypothesis that fate determination of undifferentiated endodermal cells of the foregut depends on the dosage of the key transcriptional factors including ptfla. Mice experiments crossing several hypomorphic alleles of ptfla combined with lineage tracing, we showed that the reduced dosage of ptfla results in (1)misspecification into duodenal and bile duct cells, (2)exocrine differentiation is extremely delayed but the timing of endocrine differentiation is normal, (3)hypomorphic mutants showed pancreatic hypoplasia and disturbed pancreatic function including exocrine dysfunction and diabetes. These results indicate that "plasticity" of the embryonic cells is explained by the dosage control of transcriptional factors in cell fate choice and that ptfla plays as cell fate determiner in two steps: in the specification of pancreatic progenitors and in the exocrine cell fate choice. Our findings predict the possible involvement of ptfla in the neonatal diabetes; SNIPs or mutation in its regulatory sequence may cause diabetes.
