Project description:The difficulty associated with generating induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) from patients with chromosomal instability syndromes suggests the cellular DNA damage response poses a barrier to reprogramming. Here we demonstrate that fibroblasts from patients with ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T) can be reprogrammed to bona-fide iPSC, albeit at a reduced efficiency. A-T iPSC display defective radiation-induced signaling, radiosensitivity and cell cycle checkpoint defects. Bioinformatic analysis of gene expression in the A-T iPSC identifies abnormalities in DNA damage signaling pathways as well as changes in mitochondrial and pentose phosphate pathways. A-T iPSC can be differentiated into functional neurons and thus represent a suitable model system to investigate A-T associated neurodegeneration. Collectively our data show that iPSC can be generated from a chromosomal instability syndrome and that these cells can be used to discover early developmental consequences of ATM deficiency, such as altered mitochondrial function, that may be relevant to A-T pathogenesis and amenable to therapeutic intervention.

Project description:It is well-known that embryonic stem cells (ESC) are much more sensitive to replication-induced stress than differentiated cells but the underpinning mechanisms are largely unknown. H2A.X, a minor variant of H2A, constitutes only 1-10% of the mammalian genome. H2A.X plays a well-known for role in the DNA damage response and maintaining stability in the genome, including the regions frequently experiencing replication stress, such as the fragile sites. Intriguingly, several recent studies have reported that H2A.X function is elevated in ESC; and others reported that H2A.X function is provoked during cellular reprogramming (in induced pluripotent stem cells, iPSC), indicating that increased proliferation during iPS may trigger replication stress and the H2A.X DNA damage response. However, several studies of genomic instability in iPSC led to different conclusions on this important issue. For example, frequent copy number variants (CNV) were reported at the genomic regions sensitive to replication stress, such as the fragile sites. On the other hand, another study reported the lack of genomic instability in mouse iPS clones that are able to generate “all-iPS” animals in tetraploid complementation assays (4N+ iPSC), indicative of a potential link between pluripotency and genome integrity. However, whether if high level genomic instability occurs in the 4N- iPSC iPSC clones at replication stress sensitive regions is unknown. Moreover, due to the lack of mechanistic insights on genome integrity maintenance, how pluripotency and genome integrity are connected remains elusive. Here we show that H2A.X plays unexpected roles in maintaining pluripotency and genome integrity in ESC and iPSC. In ESC, it is specially enriched at genomic regions sensitive to replication stress so that it protects genome integrity thereat. Faithful H2A.X deposition is critical for genome integrity and pluripotency in iPSC. H2A.X depositions in 4N+ iPSC clones faithfully recapitulate the ESC pattern and therefore, prevent genome instability. On the other hand, insufficient H2A.X depositions in 4N- iPSC clones at such regions lead to genome instability and defects in replication stress response and DNA repair, reminiscent of the H2A.X deficient ESC.

Project description:Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC), which are generated from a patient’s own cells and used to produce transplantable tissues, may particularly benefit older patients who are more likely to suffer from degenerative diseases. However, iPSC generated from aged donors (A-iPSC) exhibit higher genomic instability, defects in apoptosis, and a blunted DNA damage response compared to iPSC generated from younger donors (Y-iPSC). This raises significant safety concerns, as transplantable tissues produced from A-iPSC may be functionally impaired and carry a higher risk of cancer development. When we consider the complex genomic and epigenetic variations that occur during aging, the genomic instability in A-iPSC is likely caused by multiple mechanims. Here, we introduce the first step toward unraveling this question with the discovery of a mechanism that contributes to A-iPSC instability. We demonstrated that A-iPSC exhibit excessive glutathione-mediated reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging activity, which blocks the DNA damage response and apoptosis and leads to genomic instability. We found that the pluripotency factor ZSCAN10 is poorly expressed in A-iPSC and addition of ZSCAN10 with the four Yamanaka factors (OCT4, SOX2, KLF4, and c-MYC) used in iPSC reprogramming normalizes ROS/glutathione homeostasis and the DNA damage response and recovers A-iPSC genomic stability. Restoring the genomic stability of A-iPSC will ultimately enhance our ability to produce histocompatible functional tissues from patient’s own cells that are safe for transplantation.

Project description:We have assessed the importance of SQSTM1 in human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived cortical neurons with and without SQSTM1. By combining high-content imaging, RNA-Seq, and functional mitochondrial readouts, we showed that SQSTM1 depletion causes aberrations in mitochondrial gene expression and functionality in iPSC-derived neurons.

In this study, male 129sv/C57 ES cell genomic DNA was used as reference control, to identify CNV sites in iPS cell lines. And also detect H2A.X (-/-) ES cell (129/Sv) CNVs, with the H2A.X(f/f) ES cell DNA (129/Sv) as control. DNA samples were compared on NimbleGen Mouse CGH 3x720K Whole-Genome Tiling Array (Build MM9).

Project description:The inherited neurodegenerative disease Friedreichâ??s ataxia (FRDA) is caused by hyperexpansion of GAAâ?¢TTC trinucleotide repeats within the first intron of the FXN gene, encoding the mitochondrial protein frataxin. Long GAAâ?¢TTC repeats causes heterochromatin-mediated silencing and loss of frataxin in affected individuals. We report the derivation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from FRDA patient fibroblasts through retroviral transduction of transcription factors. FXN gene repression is maintained in the iPSCs, as are the mRNA and miRNA global expression signatures reflecting the human disease. GAAâ?¢TTC repeats uniquely in FXN in the iPSCs exhibit repeat instability similar to patient families, where they expand and/or contract with discrete changes in length between generations. The mismatch repair enzyme Msh2, implicated in repeat instability in other triplet repeat diseases, is highly expressed in the iPSCs, occupies FXN intron 1, and shRNA silencing of Msh2 impedes repeat expansion, providing a possible molecular explanation for repeat expansion in FRDA. 65 samples from various number of tissue, primary cell lines undifferenatiated human embryonic stem cell lines, induces pluripotent stem cell lines have been run on Illumina HT12 v3 chips.
