Profile of Bmpr1a-/- embryonic stem cells in ESC media and N2B27

ABSTRACT: A fundamental question in developmental biology is whether there are mechanisms to detect stem cells with mutations that although do not adversely affect their viability, would compromise their ability to contribute to further development. Here we show that cell competition is a novel mechanism regulating the fitness of embryonic stem cells (ESCs). We find that ESCs displaying defective BMP signalling, defective autophagy or are tetraploid are eliminated at the onset of differentiation by wild-type cells. This elimination occurs in an apoptotic dependent manner and is mediated by secreted factors. Furthermore, during this process we find that establishment of differential cMyc levels is critical and that cMyc over-expression is sufficient to induce competitive behaviour in ESCs. Cell competition is therefore a process that allows recognition and elimination of defective cells during the early stages of development and is likely to play important roles in tissue homeostasis and stem cell maintenance. We used microarrays to compare the gene expression profiles of Bmpr1a-/- and control embryonic stem cells (ESCs) in the ESC state and after differentiation in N2B27 Microarray profiles of control and Bmpr1a-/- mouse embryonic stem cells in embryonic stem cell culture media and in N2B27

Project description:Derivation and maintenance of pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) including embryonic stem cells(ESCs) and (iPSCs) usually requires optimization of complex culture media, which hinders the generation of PSCs from various species. Expression of Oct4, Sox2, Klf4 and c-Myc (OSKM) can reprogram somatic cells into iPSCs, even for species possessing no optimal culture condition. Here we explored whether expression of OSKM could induce and maintain pluripotency without specific growth factors and signaling inhibitors. Tet-On-OSKM/Oct4-GFP Mouse ESCs (mESCs) were derived from the embryos obtained after mating of Tet-On-OSKM mouse and Oct4-GFP mouse under the 2iL ( N2B27 plus MEK inhibitor PD0325901, GSK3β inhibitor ChIR99021, and leukemia inhibitory factor) condition. Tet-On-OSKM mouse was Gt(ROSA)26Sor tm1(rtTA*M2)Jae Col1a1 tm3(tetO-Pou5f1,-Sox2,-Klf4,-Myc)Jae/J(The Jackson Laboratory,011004), and Oct4-GFP mouse was B6;CBA-Tg(Pou5f1-EGFP)2Mnn/J (The Jackson Laboratory,004654).The culture medium of Tet-On-OSKM/Oct4-GFP mouse ESCs was switched from 2iL to N2B27 plus Doxycycline medium (OSKM medium), under which OSKM trangene was activated. These above cells switched from 2iL to OSKM medium were called OSKM-ESCs. Meanwhile 2iL-ESCs (continuely cultured in 2iL) served as the positive control group. 2iL-ESCs and OSKM-ESCs collected at selective days (d18, 25 and 38) after medium switch were collected for RNA-Seq. Moreover, Tet-On-OSKM mouse embryonic fibroblast (MEF) cells were reprogrammed under OSKM medium (N2B27 plus Doxycycline) and 2iL medium, respectively. The resulting OSKM-iPSCs were reprogrammed and cultured under OSKM medium.The 2iL-iPSCs were reprogrammed under 2iL plus Doxycycline medium and cultured under 2iL medium (without Doxycycline)once clones were picked up.RNA-Seq of these above samples was conducted to analyze gene expression. We found that via continuous expression of OSKM,OSKM-ESCs and OSKM-iPSCs propagated stably, expressed pluripotency marker genes, and formed three germ layers in teratomas. Importantly, OSKM-iPSCs could produce gene-modified animals through germline transmission.Transcriptional landscapes of OSKM-iPSCs resembled 2iL-ESCs, and were more similar to those of ESCs cultured in serum/LIF.
