Figures

Follicle Stem Cell locations, signals and behaviors.
(A) Cartoon representation of a germarium. Cap Cells (CC) at the anterior (left) contact Germline Stem Cells (not shown), which produce Cystoblast daughters that mature into 16 cell germline cysts (white) as they progress posteriorly. Quiescent Escort Cells (ECs) extend processes around germline cysts and support their differentiation. Follicle Stem Cells (FSCs) occupy three AP Layers (3, 2, 1) around the germarial circumference and immediately anterior to strong Fas3 staining (red) on the surface of all early Follicle Cells (FCs). FCs proliferate to form a monolayer epithelium, including specialized terminal Polar Cells (PCs), which secrete the Upd ligand responsible for generating a JAK-STAT pathway gradient (green) of opposite polarity to the Wnt pathway gradient (red), generated by ligands produced in CCs and ECs. (B) A GFP-positive (green) MARCM FSC lineage that includes FSCs in each layer, an EC (magenta arrowhead), a recently produced ‘immediate’ FC (blue arrowhead) and other FCs (yellow arrowheads) visualized together with Fas3 (red, arrows mark anterior Fas3 border) as (B) a single 3 μm z-section and (B’) a projection of ten z-sections (scoring is done by examining each z-section). The dotted white line outlines the germarium here and in future similar images. (C, D) Early portion of an ovariole with marked FSCs (green) in layer 1 (blue arrows) and layer 2 (yellow arrows), a marked immediate FC (white arrowhead) and more posterior FCs (magenta arrowheads) together with the anterior Fas3 (red) border (gray arrows), also (D) shown diagrammatically with anterior PCs of the first budded egg chamber indicated. (E) Germarium with a MARCM FSC lineage (green) stained for EdU (blue) incorporation during 1 hr prior to fixation, showing examples of a GFP-positive EdU+ FSC (yellow arrow) and FC (yellow arrowhead), a GFP-negative EdU+ FSC (white arrow) and FC (white arrowhead) and the anterior Fas3 (red) border (gray arrows). (F) Diagram showing four of five properties of FSC behavior measured for all marked FSCs in MARCM lineages, with values indicated for normal FSCs: EdU incorporation frequency for each FSC layer (red text and arrows), FSC location among the three layers (indicated by absolute numbers and frequencies), ECs produced per anterior FSC (those in layers 2 and 3) over a given period (0.55 from 0-6d), and the likelihood for a layer 1 FSC to become an FC (p=0.62) in a single budding cycle. (G) Distribution of the number of surviving FSCs observed for control genotypes at 6d (yellow) and 12d (blue), with the theoretically expected binomial distribution of FSCs initially marked (0d; red) based on the measured average number of surviving marked FSCs. All scale bars are 10 μm.

Graded JAK-STAT signaling determines FSC and EC proliferation profile.
(A) EdU incorporation frequency into FSCs in layers 1–3 and ECs for the indicated genotypes of MARCM lineages, with the number of cells scored and significant differences to control values (red asterisks, p<0.001). The statistical significance of the EdU index of each FSC layer as a fraction of overall EdU index relative to controls was calculated for all genotypes. Significant differences are indicated by the # symbol (# [in red] p<0.001). (B, C) EdU (blue) incorporation into MARCM FSC lineages 6d after clone induction with anterior border of Fas3 (red) marked (gray arrows). (B) Most FSCs lacking stat activity (green) did not incorporate EdU (red arrow), unlike unmarked GFP-negative neighbors (white arrows). (C) Increased JAK-STAT pathway activity from expression of UAS-Hop produced many GFP-positive EdU+ FSCs (yellow arrows). GFP-positive EdU- FSCs (red arrows) and a GFP-positive EdU- EC (magenta arrowhead) are also indicated. (D–E) STAT-GFP reporter activity (green) (D) normally declines from the posterior over the FSC domain (blue bracket; arrows mark Fas3 (not shown) anterior border) but (E) becomes uniformly high 3d after UAS-Hop expression with C587-GAL4. (F) Average relative intensity of GFP fluorescence from STAT-GFP reporter in the indicated cell types for Control (n = 20) and C587 >Hop (n = 22) germaria. (G–I) EdU (blue) incorporation in somatic cells is (G) normally restricted to FSCs (yellow arrows) and FCs beyond the Fas3 (red) border (gray arrows), (I) even when CycE activity is increased, but (H) ECs (arrowheads) are also labeled when JAK-STAT pathway activity is elevated. Thick dashed white lines outline germline cysts labeled by EdU. Thin dotted white line outlines the germarium. (J) EdU incorporation frequency into FSCs of layers 1–3 and ECs for germaria with the indicated genotypes. EdU incorporation is expressed as the percentage of all counted FSCs in layers 1, 2 and 3, while the total number of ECs in each germarium was not counted but assumed to be 40 in all cases (the total number of DAPI-labeled nuclei scored is above each column). The statistical significance of the EdU index of each FSC layer as a fraction of overall EdU index relative to controls was calculated for both altered genotypes. Significant differences are indicated by the # symbol (# p<0.05, # [in red] p<0.001). (K) EdU incorporation frequency into FSCs of layers 1–3 and ECs for the indicated genotypes of MARCM lineages with number of cells scored above each column and significant differences between pairs of FSC layers indicated only for stat-containing genotypes (black asterisks, p<0.05). The statistical significance of the EdU index of each FSC layer as a fraction of overall EdU index relative to controls was also calculated for all genotypes. No significant differences were found, indicating a gradient of EdU incorporation that is not significantly different from controls. All scale bars are 10 μm. See also Figure 2—figure supplement 1.

(B) ECs produced per anterior FSC from 0-6d (magenta) and 0-12d (blue) for the indicated MARCM lineage genotypes with the total number of relevant germaria scored and significant differences to control values (black asterisk, p<0.05, red asterisks, p<0.001). (C) Average probability of a layer 1 FSC becoming an FC during a single budding cycle for the indicated MARCM lineage genotypes with the number of informative germaria scored and significant differences to control values, or for the bracketed comparison (double asterisks) showing the impact of UAS-Fas3 (black asterisks, p<0.05, red asterisks, p<0.001). (D–E) Despite marked FSCs in layer 1 (blue arrows), and a significant number of layer 2 FSCs (yellow arrows), layer 3 FSCs (red arrows), and ECs (magenta arrowheads), marked FCs, posterior to the Fas3 (red) border (gray arrows) are absent here (and were generally rare) in kibra stat and kibra UAS-CycE stat MARCM lineages. (F–G) Increased JAK-STAT pathway activity induced ectopic anterior Fas3 (red) expression (F) cell autonomously in MARCM lineages (green) and (G–G’) in numerous cells anterior to the normal Fas3 border (arrows) when increased throughout the anterior germarium using C587-GAL4, sometimes partitioning single cysts, visualized by DAPI (white) nuclear staining, into egg chamber-like structures (dashed blue line). (H) Number of FSCs per germarium (red) using y-axis scale on the left, percentage of FSCs incorporating EdU (aggregating all layers, white), percentage of ovarioles with a marked FSC (blue) and percentage of ovarioles with a marked FSC and marked FCs (yellow) (percentage y-axis scale in blue on the right) for the indicated genotypes, with the number of germaria scored at 12d (EdU was scored at 6d with n reported in (A)) and significant differences for FSC numbers compared to control values (black asterisks, p<0.05, red asterisks, p<0.001). All scale bars are 10 μm.

Promotion of FC production by the JAK-STAT pathway overrides the opposing influence of increased Wnt pathway activity and synergizes with loss of Wnt pathway activity to cause dramatic loss of highly proliferative FSCs.

Summary of the cell autonomous influences of JAK-STAT and Wnt pathway magnitudes on FSC behavior.
Diagrammatic summary of key results supporting inferences of how graded JAK-STAT (green shading) and Wnt (red shading) pathways regulate the division rates of ECs and FSCs in layers 1–3 (left) and the location of FSCs among layers 1–3, the conversion of anterior FSCs to ECs and posterior FSCs to FCs (right). The central column shows the average number of marked FSCs per germarium at 12d in MARCM tests. Genotypes at the extreme left are paired with vertical arrows indicating the direction (up/down) and magnitude (thickness) of JAK-STAT (green) and Wnt (red) pathway alterations. For the C587>Hop experiment only division rates were measured as the fraction of all FSCs in a given layer, or all ECs, incorporating EdU. Other tabulated values report the properties of marked cells in MARCM clones. Asterisk for axn UAS-Hop indicates results are for the test at 22C. Measurements of division rate in the EC region or any layer 1 FSC behavior (division rate, proportion of all FSCs or conversion to FCs) are highlighted by colored text if there was a notable increase (blue) or decrease (orange). JAK-STAT signaling promotes FSC division in proportion to graded pathway activity (green vertical arrows, top), while Wnt pathway activity only inhibits division (red verticals) under artificial conditions of increased Wnt signaling or elimination of JAK-STAT pathway activity. FC production from posterior FSCs is promoted by JAK-STAT (horizontal green arrow) and by elimination of Wnt pathway activity (reverse horizontal red arrow). Consequently, stat mutant FSCs were maintained better than expected from their greatly reduced division rates but FSCs with high JAK-STAT activity and no Wnt pathway activity were rapidly drained despite high division rates. Increased Wnt pathway activity always favored more anterior FSC locations and EC production (12d EC/aFSC values are shown) from anterior FSCs (horizontal red arrows), and generally had a stronger influence than the opposing influence of JAK-STAT in anterior regions (thinner green reverse horizontal arrows). By contrast, increased JAK-STAT activity overcame the influence of increased Wnt pathway activity on conversion of FSCs to FCs at the posterior of the FSC domain. Values for EdU in parentheses for arr UAS-Hop indicate unreliable values because only a very low number of FSCs were present in those locations (n < 10).
