Transcription profiling of pig induced pluripotent stem cells from somatic cells

ABSTRACT: We have derived induced porcine pluripotent stem cells (iPPSCs) from porcine fetal fibroblasts by lentiviral transduction of four human (h) reprogramming genes, hOCT4, hSOX2, hKLF4 and hc-MYC , the same combination of factors used for deriving induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines in both mouse and human. The obtained iPPSC lines resemble human embryonic stem cells (ESC) in their gross morphology and dependence on FGF2, on the other hand, the iPPSCs share characteristics like growth rate and cell surface markers with mESC . Additionally, the iPPSCs express pluripotency- associated genes similar to mouse and human iPSCs as well as ESC, along with the pig epiblast cells. Some of the iPPSC lines retained a stable karyotype and phenotype even in culture for a prolonged period of time (passage 39). The iPPSCs can be induced to differentiate along lineages representative of the three embryonic germ layers both in vitro and in vivo demonstrating the pluripotency of these cells. Experiment Overall Design: The open reading frames of the human (h) SOX2, hKLF4, and hc-MYC have been cloned into the BamHI and EcoRI sites of the lentiviral vector, FUGW and the hOCT4 cDNA into the pSIN18.cPPT.hEF1a.EGFP.WPRE vector at its BamHI and SalI sites. Pseudovirus was produced in human 293FT cells (Invitrogen) by transfection with each lentiviral vector (FUGW or pSIN18) along with VSV-G envelope vector (pMD2.G) and packaging vector (psPAX2) by using Lipofectamine-Plus reagents (Invitrogen). The target cells were porcine fibroblasts expressing enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP-PFF) derived at day 34 of pregnancy. Titered virus was used to infect the target cells (1 x 10^5 /35mm dish). On the second day following infection (day 2), the cells were dispersed with trypsin and transferred to 10 cm plates preseeded with irradiated mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEF), and after day 3 the cells were maintained on a culture medium standardized for human ESC containing 4 ng/ml human FGF2.

For reasons that are unclear the production of embryonic stem cells from ungulates has proved elusive. Here, we describe induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) derived from porcine fetal fibroblasts by lentiviral transduction of 4 human (h) genes, hOCT4, hSOX2, hKLF4, and hc-MYC, the combination commonly used to create iPSC in mouse and human. Cells were cultured on irradiated mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEF) and in medium supplemented with knockout serum replacement and FGF2. Compact colonies o ...[more]

Project description:Understanding essential signaling network requirements and adjustment the culture conditions for porcine pluripotent stem cells (pPSC) that allow its full potential are necessary. Here we compared culture conditions of various cytokine and kinase inhibitor combinations by deriving porcine induced pluripotent stem cells (piPSC) and porcine embryonic stem cell (pESC)-like cells. We modified the naïve-type human PSC condition by replacing TGFB1 with TGFB inhibitor and developed a so-called FL6i condition, consisting of FGF2, LIF, p38i, JNKi, TGFBi, GSK3i, MEKi, and BMPi. In such conditions, the primed type lentiviral reprogrammed piPSC (Lv-piPSC) was converted into naïve-like state demonstrating increased expression of endogenous pluripotent genes. By using the FL6i condition, new piPSC lines were generated with non-integrative episomal plasmids (Epi-piPSC). While concurrently generated piPSC in condition with FGF2 and LIF only, and without inhibitors lost the pluripotency within a couple passages of the culture, piPSC in FL6i were successfully established stable lines (> 45 passages) with pluripotent phenotypes. The Epi-piPSC-FL6i lines expressed higher endogenous pPOU5F1, and pSOX2 expressions than Lv-piPSC, however, variable transgene expressions were detected with consistent presence of POU5F1. The teratomas generated from Epi-piPSC-FL6i that developed fully differentiated teratomas while those from Lv-piPSC lines and Epi-piPSC derived in a different condition were limited in differentiation range, suggesting the beneficial role of the FL6i condition supporting elevated pluripotent phenotypes. FL6i conditions were also able to maintain the embryo derived cells with dome-shaped phenotype and extended the culture period that cells showed undifferentiated phenotype than the ones cultured with FGF2 alone. But neither conditions established stable pESC lines. RNAseq analysis with the piPSC and pESC-like cells revealed elevated expressions of early differentiation markers in the lines derived without inhibitors. The pathway analysis suggested that the activation of TGFB and BMP signaling pathways may be responsible for losing pluripotent state in porcine cells.
