A New Piece Added to the Pituitary Gland Puzzle Revises Evolutionary History – Technology Networks

Read Time:

A new USC-led study suggests a change to the developmental -- and evolutionary -- story of the pituitary gland.

The pea-sized gland, nestled at the base of the brain, produces hormones that drive growth, aggression, sexual development and reproduction. For decades, the front lobe of the pituitary -- where the hormones are made -- was thought to be an evolutionary development that arose in vertebrates, along with the ear, the nose and the lens of the eye.

The widely accepted "new head hypothesis" holds that all of these body parts derive from a particular type of embryonic structure located in the ectoderm, or outermost layer of an embryo. Meanwhile, animals that have spinal cords but lack backbones, understood to represent an earlier evolutionary step, have a pituitary-like structure previously thought to have a distinct origin in the innermost embryonic layer, or endoderm.

In a paper published today in Science, USC researchers present evidence that, in some vertebrates, the endoderm also forms part of the pituitary's front lobe -- an idea that has been the subject of scientific controversy dating back more than 100 years. Findings from the study, which was supported by a major grant from the National Institutes of Health, suggest that the gland may have a longer evolutionary history than previously thought.

"We revisited very old observations with cutting-edge technology that proves this idea that there is an endodermal contribution to the pituitary," said senior author Gage Crump, professor of stem cell and regenerative medicine at the Keck School of Medicine of USC. "Our work revises ideas about what kind of embryonic structure the pituitary is, and when it first evolved." Developmental detective work

Crump and his colleagues studied zebrafish, a species useful as a lab model in part because their development is an open book to researchers; eggs are fertilized externally and embryos are nearly see-through. The research team used new lab methods of their own invention to label the zebrafish's embryonic cells and follow the cells that descended from them through adulthood.

Additionally, they used time-lapse imaging with a powerful microscope and single-cell RNA sequencing. That latter technology is related to DNA sequencing, but instead of characterizing the entire genetic code, it reveals only the genes that are expressed, and in what quantities, for each of thousands of cells at a time -- a powerful way of understanding the nature of the cells being studied.

In a series of experiments with time-lapse imaging of zebrafish embryos, the team documented Rathke's pouch, a structure from the outer layer previously believed to be the sole source of the pituitary's front lobe, fusing with Seessel's pouch, a structure from the inner layer. Their observations indicate that the endoderm was responsible for about 20 percent of the cells in the front lobe of the pituitary.

Another experiment tracking the fate of embryonic cells into adult zebrafish showed a mixture of ectodermally and endodermally derived cells in the pituitary. Delving into gene expression with RNA sequencing, the scientists found that cells from the inner endoderm layer ended up differentiating into all of the major types of hormone-producing cells in the pituitary. Furthermore, in genetically manipulated zebrafish embryos that lacked the ectodermal component , endodermal cells could form a pituitary-like structure on their own, albeit much smaller than the normal pituitary.

Taken together, these investigations clearly demonstrate an endodermal contribution to the zebrafish pituitary. This unexpected revelation suggests that the quasi-pituitary seen in certain more-primal nonvertebrate animals -- undersea creatures that are strange and largely obscure -- may have survived, in a form, among at least some of their backbone-bearing evolutionary descendants.

Crump, who also is the founding director of USC's PhD Program in Development, Stem Cells, and Regenerative Medicine, cautions that it remains to be seen whether the vestige endures in humans.

"It may be that fish retain this ancestral feature, but humans have lost it," he said. "We can see the pituitary is not a brand-new vertebrate structure like the nose or ear or lens, but instead was already present before vertebrates and subsequently incorporated new ectoderm contributions. By capturing this evolutionary relic in zebrafish, we have resolved the mystery of where the pituitary came from."

An old idea that came back around (surprisingly)

As far back as the mid-1910s, anatomists had reported that Rathke's pouch was closely associated with Seessel's pouch. Rathke's pouch has long been understood as the source of the pituitary's endocrine component. By contrast, the fate and purpose of Seessel's pouch has remained a mystery -- until today.

For researchers in the early 20th century (and more or less ever since), there were no good ways to further explore the relation between the two embryonic structures, and thus the possibility of an endodermal contribution to the pituitary. Hotly debated at first, the topic eventually faded into more of a historical curiosity.

Fortunately, first author Peter Fabian, a postdoctoral researcher at the Keck School, was well-versed in this precedent. While trying out one of those new techniques for labeling and tracking embryonic cells, developed by collaborators at Sanford Burnham Prebys Medical Discovery Institute, he noticed endodermal cells in the pituitary. A light bulb went off in his head.

"It was a serendipitous discovery," Crump said. "We're interested in the endoderm in general, but we hadn't set out to study the pituitary. Because this was such an unexpected observation, we really had to prove it with multiple lines of investigation."

Prop 14: Don’t Stand Idly By – Jewish Journal

At the very heart of our Biblical tradition is this commandment from the Book of Leviticus: You shall not stand idly by the blood of your fellow. (Leviticus 19:16)

If we see our sisters or brothers in danger, our job is simple: provide that help, come to their aid, do what is in our power to protect them and save them.

In the midst of a global pandemic, we feel the call to protect and promote the health and well-being of others even more urgently. Right now, we hear the call to uphold the ultimate Jewish value of pikuach nefesh (saving a life).

Sometimes, we live out that value in an immediate way. We donate blood today, which can save lives in real time. We provide support for basic needs to ensure that people in our community have enough to eat right now. But if we truly wish to move the needle in the work of pikuach nefesh, we must also provide resources to fund research over many years, even decades, that will, ultimately, yield dramatic results.

To truly make a difference, to be Gods partners in bringing healing to the world, we must not stand idly by in both immediate and long-term ways.

California voters have an opportunity to do just this by voting Yes on Proposition 14, which will advance the California Institute of Regenerative Medicines stem cell research to help those who are affected by ailments including heart disease, diabetes, Alzheimers, Parkinsons Disease, sickle cell disease, spinal cord injuries, COVID-19, and so many other chronic illnesses and injuries.

Funding for this important and vital medical research help save lives, and it will provide immediate economic stimulus as well. Even as it funds long-term strategies to alleviate human suffering, Proposition 14 will create jobs during this challenging time. Recent studies suggest that Proposition 14 would generate approximately $20 billion in increased economic activity in California, yielding more than 100,000 new jobs at every level. This far surpasses Proposition 14s estimated cost of $5.5 billion in bonds.

Critics of the proposition question the need for such funding on a state level today. They argue that Proposition 71, the initiative that originally created the California Institute of Regenerative Medicine, was passed in 2004 only because President George W. Bush had banned federal funding for stem cell research. Now that federal funding for stem cell research is allowed, the critic charge, its no longer Californias responsibility to fund such research; private and federal funding be used to continue this important work.

However, relying on federal and private funds is too risky. Many in our country wish to stifle and limit stem cell research on religious grounds. Far more importantly, Jewish law on this matter is unequivocal: stem cell research is not just permitted, but, arguably, required as a matter of pikuach nefesh. Numerous halakhic authorities have made this clear. It should, therefore, come as no surprise that some of the most exciting work in stem cell research is currently being done in Israel.

Medical experts agree that stem cell research and therapies will save lives and alleviate human suffering. In fact, it already has. One example is the stem cell Dr. Donald Kohn at UCLA conducted to cure ADA-SCID bubble baby disease.

This work is too important for us to leave it to chance or to allow it to be cut-off or limited. We see Proposition 14s opportunity to provide such resources for life-saving research as a blessing, the fulfillment of core Jewish values. Just one chapter before the commandment to not stand idly by, our Torah reminds us that the purpose of mitzvot, the very goal of Judaism, is to enhance life. We are commanded: in the pursuit of My laws and statutes you shall live ( ). (Leviticus 18:5) The Rabbis of the Talmud interpret this verse to mean that the ultimate value, above all else, is life itself.

To be sure, it will take many years to realize the promise of current research. But like the well-known story of Honi, who came upon an old man planting a tree that would not bear fruit for another seventy years, we recognize that our efforts are not for ourselves alone. Just as our ancestors sacrificed so that our lives would be better, we commit ourselves to doing the same for our descendants.

The voices of our sisters and brothers cry out to us: friends and family members with diabetes; co-workers fighting against cancer; loved ones slipping away due to the cruel ravages of Alzheimers. They call out to us in their pain. They are searching for hope. We cannot stand idly by. We must generously sacrifice so that they and subsequent generations might , live and be well.

There are quite literally lives to be saved. Join us by voting Yes on Proposition 14 on November 3rd.

Local researchers make stem cell breakthrough – Times of Malta

Study, shortlisted for German award, could lead to ethical and efficient adult stem cell production at fraction of cost and time

A team of University of Malta researchers has been shortlisted for an international award after conducting breakthrough research that could see the future of adult stem cell production carried out faster and cheaper, and without ethical quandaries.

The team is made up of associate professor Pierre Schembri Wismayer, PhD candidate Ila Tewari Jasra and Maria Mifsud from the Department of Anatomy in the Faculty of Medicine and Surgery.

They have been selected as finalists for a German prize the Falling Walls Life Sciences Award that rewards the top 10 breakthroughs of the year in different scientific fields.

The team built on the Nobel Prize-winning research of Shinya Yamanaka, who in 2006 managed to generate the equivalent of an embryonic stem cell from adult fibroblasts. Yamanaka was able to take a complicated cell and revert it into a younger cell without destroying any embryos

While the process is widely used for research purposes, it is seldom applied to treatment due to the cost and time it takes to produce the stem cells, Schembri Wismayer told Times of Malta.

Stem cell treatment has a big advantage when addressing disease that sees a loss of tissue but its not used so much mostly due to efficiency issues.

While stem cells can be used to cure disease, they are most commonly adult stem cells harvested from fat and bone marrow or from embryonic cells. Apart from being ethically contentious, there is the risk of rejection since it is not the patients own cells that are being used, he explained.

Were hoping that well be able to make stem cells accessible for everyone

Apart from this, genetic modification is a lengthy process with an efficiency rate of less than one per cent. Samples must also be taken from a biopsy, which is quite painful, and requires animal cells to act as feeder cells.

As we know, wherever you have a combination of human and animal cells you also run the risk of diseases, Schembri Wismayer said.

He and Tewari Jasra were able to produce induced pluripotent stem cells with an 80 per cent efficiency rate using simple and widely available chemicals in a fraction of the time it typically takes.

By comparison, the Roslin Institute, which created Dolly the sheep, require between three to four months to create stem cells that sell in the region of 20,000.

The University of Malta researchers were able to make them far more cheaply in the span of three weeks.

Were hoping that well be able to make stem cells accessible for everyone, Schembri Wismayer said.

Potentially we could have a stem cell bank that matched anyone in the population. We could have cells made for them before they even get diseases.

As part of her PhD research, Tewari Jasra has been working on the breakthrough for close to four-and-a-half years.

Thanking the universitys knowledge transfer team, Schembri Wismayer said he hoped recognition for the research would spur on other local academics and convince institutions that there is research worth funding on the island.

I think its very important for Malta to be aware that we can do good science with very little funding, he said.

Ila didnt have a research fund; we had to beg, steal and borrow from so many different sources just for her to be able to do the research.

We are not the only people with ideas; if investment is done right we could move closer to the ideal of an often mentioned but seldom supported knowledge-based economy.

Its very exciting to see that no one is publishing anything close to what weve managed, he continues.

The response were getting is so encouraging. When you write to established journals and institutes and you hear back within a day, you start thinking you know, I actually might have something here.

Independent journalism costs money. Support Times of Malta for the price of a coffee.

In Garber's segment, he will talk with NYSCF Senior Vice President of Research Scott Noggle, PhD, on how stem cells can help find a cure for diabetes, while Krakowski will discuss the basics of stem cells and how they are being used to study and fight COVID-19 with NYSCF Vice President, Automation Systems & Stem Cell Biology Daniel Paull, PhD.

The program will also include Ferguson speaking with NYSCF Principal Investigator Laura Andres-Martin, PhD, about NYSCF's new cutting-edge research on women's reproductive cancers, and NYSCF scientists Howard Kim, PhD, and Cecile Terrenoire, PhD will also share an update on NYSCF's macular degeneration stem cell therapy.

The 75-minute program will focus on education about science, using entertainment as a means to help viewers understand scientific concepts. It will also feature a short performance in honor of Frank Gehry by cellist Yo-Yo Ma, and a comedy skit by Fontana and Ashford.

Frank Gehry is perhaps the world's most celebrated living architect, known for his designs of landmark buildings including the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, Spain; Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles; and Fondation Louis Vuitton in Paris. The Los Angeles-based architect, whose buildings are known for the sweeping shapes and dramatic silhouettes, has won the Pritzker Prize, long considered the architecture profession's equivalent of the Nobel, as well as the Praemium Imperiale in Japan and the Gold Medal of the American Institute of Architects and the Gold Medal of the Royal Institute of British Architects. Frank has also dedicated himself to philanthropic work throughout his long career with numerous pro bono design projects in the arts, and he has had a longstanding engagement with medical research. NYSCF is honored to count Frank as a steadfast supporter of its mission to accelerate better treatments and cures for the most devastating diseases of our time through stem cell research.

David Rockwell is the founder and President of the Rockwell Group, an interdisciplinary and innovative architecture and design firm based in New York with offices in Los Angeles and Madrid, with work that ranges from restaurant and hotel design to cultural and educational institutions, theaters, and stage sets, to self-initiated pro bono projects supporting New York City during times of crisis. Ten years ago, David conceptualized the first Science Fair at a NYSCF Gala, and for many years he designed the environment that simulates the NYSCF Research Institute Laboratories and allows benefit guests to meet and mingle with NYSCF scientists. He has received numerous awards and recognition for his groundbreaking work, including a Tony Award in 2016 for set design, and NYSCF is honored to recognize his dedication, creativity, and talent for making cutting-edge science come alive each fall.

Brooke Ellison, PhD, is an Associate Professor at Stony Brook University, and the Director of Education and Ethics at the Stony Brook Stem Cell Facility. An expert in stem cell research policy and ethics, and longtime patient and disability advocate, Brooke has dedicated her professional career to changing the perception of life-saving science. Paralyzed from the neck down and dependent on a ventilator since age eleven following an accident, Brook has surmounted innumerable hurdles to achieve her goals, including serving on the Empire State Stem Cell Board, which designed New York State's stem cell policy. NYSCF is proud to recognize Brooke's tireless efforts to bring the promise of stem cell research to fruition, and for her advocacy for people in need of better solutions.

"Scientific research is more important than ever, particularly now in the midst of a global pandemic," stated NYSCF Research Institute CEO and Founder Susan L. Solomon. "I am thrilled that we are able to bring our research to life through this digital medium, and to honor our three incredible stem cell heroes. Private philanthropy is the fuel that drives our scientific success, and the Gala and Science Fair celebration highlight both the importance of our work and the promise of stem cell research around the world."
