Bmi1 is a member of the Polycomb protein family and represses transcription by modifying chromatin organization at specific promoters. Bmi1 is implicated in the control of stem cell self-renewal and has been shown to regulate cell proliferation, tissue homeostasis, and differentiation. Bmi1 is present in a subpopulation of self-renewing pancreatic acinar cells and is expressed in response to pancreatic damage. We investigated the role of Bmi1 in exocrine pancreas regeneration. Acute pancreatitis was induced in Bmi1−/− mice with caerulein; pancreatic cell regeneration, differentiation, and apoptosis were assessed. Cultured Bmi1−/− and wild-type primary acini were analyzed in vitro, to determine acinar-specific consequences of Bmi1 deletion. To investigate cell-autonomous vs non–cell-autonomous roles for Bmi1 in vivo, pancreatitis was induced in Bmi1−/− mice reconstituted with a wild-type hematopoietic system. Bmi1 expression was upregulated in the exocrine pancreas during regeneration after caerulein-induced pancreatitis. Exocrine regeneration was impaired following caerulein administration to Bmi1−/− mice. Pancreata of Bmi1−/− mice were hypoplastic, and the exocrine pancreas was replaced with ductal metaplasia that had increased apoptosis and decreased cell proliferation, compared to that of wild-type mice. Expression of Cdkn2a and p53-dependent apoptotic genes were markedly upregulated in Bmi1−/− pancreas, compared to wild-type mice, after injury. Furthermore, after transplantation of bone marrow from wild-type to Bmi1−/− mice, the chimeric mice had intermediate levels of pancreatic hypoplasia and significant, but incomplete, rescue of impaired exocrine regeneration after caerulein injury. Bmi1 contributes to regeneration of the exocrine pancreas after caerulein-induced injury through cell-autonomous mechanisms—in part by regulating Cdkn2a expression—and non-cell-autonomous mechanisms.
