Description
Pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) exist in multiple stable states, each with specific cellular properties and molecular signatures. The process by which pluripotency is either maintained or destabilized to initiate specific developmental programs is poorly understood. We have developed a model to predict stabilized PSC gene regulatory network (GRN) states in response to combinations of input signals. While previous attempts to model PSC fate have been limited to static cell compositions, our approach enables simulations of dynamic heterogeneity by combining an Asynchronous Boolean Simulation (ABS) strategy with simulated single cell fate transitions using a Strongly Connected Components (SCCs). This computational framework was applied to a reverse-engineered and curated core GRN for mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) to simulate responses to LIF, Wnt/ß-catenin, FGF/ERK, BMP4, and Activin A/Nodal pathway activation. For these input signals, our simulations exhibit strong predictive power for gene expression patterns, cell population composition, and nodes controlling cell fate transitions. The model predictions extend into early PSC differentiation, demonstrating, for example, that a Cdx2-high/Oct4-low state can be efficiently generated from mESCs residing in a naïve and signal-receptive state sustained by combinations of signaling activators and inhibitors. Overall design: Examination of perturbed PSCs versus control PSCs and mesoderm progenitors Mouse pluripotent stem cells were grown on tissue culture plates for two days in serum-containing, feeder free medium supplemented with the following cytokines/small molecules: 2i = CHIR99021 (Reagents Direct 27-H76 – 3µM) & PD0325901 (Reagents Direct 39-C68 – 1µM) Jaki = JAK inhibitor (EMD Millipore 420097 – 2.0µM) BMP = BMP4 (R&D Systems 314-BP-010 – 10ng/ml) Alk5i = ALK5 inhibitor II (Cedarlane ALX-270-445 - 10µM)

Description
Production of functional proteins requires multiple steps including gene transcription and post-translational processing. MicroRNAs (miRNA) can regulate individual stages of these processes. Despite the importance of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) channel for epithelial anion transport, how its expression is regulated remains uncertain. We discovered that microRNA-138 regulates CFTR expression through its interactions with the transcriptional regulatory protein SIN3A. Treating airway epithelia with a miR-138 mimic increased CFTR mRNA and also enhanced CFTR abundance and transepithelial Cl- permeability independently of elevated mRNA levels. A miR-138 anti-miR had the opposite effects. Importantly, miR-138 altered the expression of many genes encoding proteins that associate with CFTR and may influence its biosynthesis. The most common CFTR mutation, F508, causes protein misfolding, degradation, and cystic fibrosis. Remarkably, manipulating the miR-138 regulatory network also improved biosynthesis of CFTR-F508 and restored Cl- transport to cystic fibrosis airway epithelia. This novel miRNA-regulated network directs gene expression from the chromosome to the cell membrane, indicating that an individual miRNA can control a cellular process broader than previously recognized. This discovery also provides new therapeutic avenues for restoring CFTR function to cells affected by the most common cystic fibrosis mutation.
