TRF2-mediated telomere protection is dispensable in pluripotent stem cells

Marta Markiewicz-Potoczny et al.

Summary: The loss of TRF2 in mouse embryonic stem cells triggers a compensatory transcriptional program that renders TRF2 dispensable for cell survival and proliferation. The unique DNA damage response in TRF2-null ES cells is controlled by telomere-associated protein POT1B and chromatin remodelling factor BRD2, and is characterized by the upregulation of ZSCAN4.

TRF2-independent chromosome end protection during pluripotency

Phil Ruis et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates that in mouse pluripotent embryonic stem cells and epiblast stem cells, TRF2 is largely dispensable for telomere protection, with cells exhibiting an attenuated telomeric DNA damage response and the ability to propagate for multiple generations even in the absence of TRF2. Cells exiting pluripotency rapidly switch to TRF2-dependent end protection, and embryos lacking Trf2 arrest before implantation with evidence of DNA damage response signaling and apoptosis in the non-pluripotent compartment. The formation of T-loops independently of TRF2 in ES cells explains why TRF2 is not essential for end protection during pluripotency.

Adult Neural Stem Cells Are Alerted by Systemic Inflammation through TNF-α Receptor Signaling

German Belenguer et al.

Summary: This research focuses on analyzing different states of single neural stem cells (NSCs) obtained from the subependymal zone (SEZ) and identifies that activated and primed states can be captured and studied in culture, while the quiescent state cannot. Additionally, the study shows that peripherally induced inflammation transiently activates primed NSCs via tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) and returns them to quiescence in a TNF receptor 1 (TNFR1)-dependent manner, suggesting a signaling pathway promoting NSC alertness and the ability of stem cells to respond to the systemic environment.

NORAD-induced Pumilio phase separation is required for genome stability

Mahmoud M. Elguindy et al.

Summary: Liquid-liquid phase separation is a key mechanism through which long noncoding RNA controls RNA-binding proteins and maintains genomic stability in mammalian cells. The study shows that RNA-driven phase separation competitively sequesters RNA-binding proteins by nucleating the formation of phase-separated condensates, influencing RBP activity and genome maintenance. The repetitive sequence architecture of lncRNAs suggests that phase separation may be a widely used mechanism of lncRNA-mediated regulation.
