Abstract
Ectodermal appendages, such as the mammary gland (MG), are thought to have evolved from hair-associated apocrine glands to serve the function of milk secretion. Through the directed differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs), here, we report the generation of multilineage ESC-derived mammary organoids (MEMOs). We adapted the skin organoid model, inducing the dermal mesenchyme to transform into mammary-specific mesenchyme via the sequential activation of Bone Morphogenetic Protein 4 (BMP4) and Parathyroid Hormone-related Protein (PTHrP) and inhibition of hedgehog (HH) signaling. Using single-cell RNA sequencing, we identified gene expression profiles that demonstrate the presence of mammary-specific epithelial cells, fibroblasts, and adipocytes. MEMOs undergo ductal morphogenesis in Matrigel and can reconstitute the MG in vivo. Further, we demonstrate that the loss of function in placode regulators LEF1 and TBX3 in mESCs results in impaired skin and MEMO generation. In summary, our MEMO model is a robust tool for studying the development of ectodermal appendages, and it provides a foundation for regenerative medicine and disease modeling.
期刊介绍:
Developmental Cell, established in 2001, is a comprehensive journal that explores a wide range of topics in cell and developmental biology. Our publication encompasses work across various disciplines within biology, with a particular emphasis on investigating the intersections between cell biology, developmental biology, and other related fields. Our primary objective is to present research conducted through a cell biological perspective, addressing the essential mechanisms governing cell function, cellular interactions, and responses to the environment. Moreover, we focus on understanding the collective behavior of cells, culminating in the formation of tissues, organs, and whole organisms, while also investigating the consequences of any malfunctions in these intricate processes.
