Gata3 loss leads to an expansion of prostate basal stem/progenitor cells numbers.

(A) Effect of Gata3 loss and overexpression on in vitro basal stem/progenitor maintenance potential. Organoid-forming potential was assessed by plating equal numbers (105 cells) of sorted basal prostate cells from the indicated genotypes in Matrigel and passaged every 7 days. Shown is the absolute number of cells obtained after each passage for the indicated genotypes. Data are representative of two independent experiments from a pool of prostate cells from a minimum of three mice. (B) Specific deletion of Gata3 in KRT5+ basal cells affect the organoid-forming potential upon passage. Organoid-forming potential was assessed as in (A). Cre activity was induced in vitro by treatment with hydroxy-tamoxifen for the first passage. (C) Gata3 loss increase regenerative capacity in vivo. Different numbers of sorted basal cells from wild type (Pbsn-Cre, Pbsn-Cre Gata3f/f and Krt5CreERT2Gata3f/f) prostate were mixed with UGSM and transplanted under the kidney capsule of immunodeficient mice. All mice contain Rosa26LstopLTdTomato/+ allele and Cre activity was induced in vivo by tamoxifen injection in adult mice 4 weeks prior to organoid propagation potential assessment. Prostate reconstituting units (PRU) frequency of total basal cells was calculated based on growth of TdTomato+ grafts using the Limiting Dilution Analysis software L-Calc (StemCell Technologies) according to Poisson statistics (two-tailed t-test; *p<0.05, **p<0.001). (D) Immunofluorescence staining of lineage-specific markers KRT5 (basal) and KRT8/18 (luminal) in wild type, Pbsn-Cre Gata3f/f and Krt5CreERT2Gata3f/f allografts. Scale bar is representative of 50 μm. See also Figure 1—figure supplements 12.

BMP5 increases the propagation potential of basal stem/progenitor cells.

(A–B) Organoid-forming capacity is abrogated by both BMP and BMPR-SMAD1/5/8 inhibitors treatment. Sorted basal cells from wild type or Krt5CreERT2Gata3f/f prostate were grown in presence or absence of NOGGIN (A) or small inhibitor K02288 (B) for six passages. Cre activity was induced by hydroxy-tamoxifen treatment in vitro for the first passage (A) or by tamoxifen injection in vivo 4 weeks prior to culture (B). Organoid-forming potential was assessed as in Figure 1A. (C) Bmp5 loss reduces organoid-forming activity in vitro, while propagation potential capacity of wild type cells is increased by BMP5 treatment. Basal cells (105) from wild type, Bmp5SE/SE, Krt5CreERT2Gata3f/f or Krt5CreERT2Gata3f/f Bmp5SE/SE mice were grown for six passages. Exogenous BMP5 was added to culture media where indicated. Cre activity was induced in vivo as in (B). (D) Bmp5 silencing specifically affects organoid-forming activity in vitro. ShRNA against Bmp5 or scrambled were electroporated in first passage organoid from wild type and Krt5CreERT2Gata3f/f basal cells and grown for seven passages. Cre activity was induced in vivo as in (B). (E) Bmp5 levels affects regenerative potential in vivo. Different numbers of sorted basal prostate cells from Rosa26LTdTomato (control) or Bmp5SE/SERosa26LTdTomato were transplanted with UGSM either wild type, ectopically expressing BMP5 or derived from Bmp5SE/SE mice. Limiting dilution analysis was done as in Figure 1C. Notice that the loss of Bmp5 in basal cells but not in UGSM affects prostate reconstituting units (PRU) frequency (two-tailed t-test as compared to wild-type condition; **p<0.02, *p<0.04). (F) Immunofluorescence of allografts show presence of prostatic ducts expressing both KRT5 and KRT8/18. Scale bar is representative of 50 μm. See also Figure 3—figure supplements 12.
