Project description:The differentiation of pluripotent stem cells to hepatocyte-like cells offers the perspective of unlimited supply of human hepatocytes. However, the degree of differentiation of hepatic-like cells (HLC) remains controversial. To obtain an unbiased characterization, we performed a transcriptomics study using the Affymetrix Gene Chip® HG-U133 plus 2.0, with HLC derived from embryonic and induced stem cells (ESC, hiPSC) from two different laboratories. Genome-wide gene expression profiles of ESC and HLC were compared to freshly isolated and up to 14 days cultivated primary human hepatocytes (see submission E-MTAB-3994) obtained under patient informed consent from three male donors. Three biological replicas were used for each ESC and HLC models.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been implicated in regulating multiple processes during brain development in various species. However, the function of miRNAs in human brain development remains largely unexplored. Here, we provide a comprehensive analysis of miRNA expression of regionalized neural progenitor cells derived from human embryonic stem cells and human fetal brain. We found mir-92b-3p and mir-130b-5p to be specifically associated with neural progenitors and several miRNAs that display both age-specific and region-specific expression patterns. Among these miRNAs, we identified miR-10 to be specifically expressed in the human hindbrain and spinal cord, while absent from rostral regions. We found that miR-10 regulates a large number of genes enriched for functions including transcription, actin cytoskeleton and ephrin receptor signaling. When overexpressed, miR-10 influences caudalization of human neural progenitors cells. Together, these data confirms a role for miRNAs in establishing different human neural progenitor populations. This data set also provides a comprehensive resource for future studies investigating the functional role of different miRNAs in human brain development. Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) were transduced with lentiviral vectors expressing either miR10a-GFP or miR10b-GFP. The expression of the vectors is Tet-regulated and they will only be expressed in the presence of Doxycycline. In order to detect direct targets of the miR10a and miR10b, we differentiated the trasduced hESCs for 14 days, and added doxycycline to only half of the groups - resulting in groups that are overexpressing miR10a or miR10b and some groups that are not overexpressing these miRNAs.

Project description:To understand in detail the molecular phases that occur during the differentiation of human embryonic stem cells to hepatocyte-like cells we performed an RNA-seq time course of the stages of differentiation across the 21 day differentiation time course. We used a chemically defined (serum-free) protocol, modified from Si-Tayeb et al., 2010 and Song et al., 2009. We describe acquisition of definitive endoderm characteristics at day 3, followed by hepatoblast charcter at day 7-13 and then maturation to hepatocyte-like cells at day 21.

Project description:Recent advances in three dimensional (3D) culture systems have led to the generation of brain organoids that share resemblance to different parts of the human brains; however, a 3D organoid model of the midbrain that contains functional midbrain dopaminergic (mDA) neurons has not been reported. In this study, we develop a method to differentiate human PSCs into a large multicellular organoid-like structure that contains distinct layers of neuronal cells with a transcriptomic profile that resembles human prenatal midbrain. Importantly, we detected electrically active and functionally mature mDA neurons, and dopamine production in our 3D midbrain-like organoids (MLOs). In contrast to human mDA neurons generated using non-3D methods or in the MLOs generated from mouse embryonic stem cells, our human MLOs uniquely produced neuromelanin-like granules that were structurally similar to those isolated from human substantia nigra tissues. Thus our MLOs bearing features of the human midbrain may provide a novel tractable in vitro system to study the human midbrain and its related diseases.

Project description:Cell-based models of many neurological and psychiatric diseases, established by reprogramming patient somatic cells into human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs), have now been reported. While numerous reports have demonstrated that neuronal cells differentiated from hiPSCs are electrophysiologically active mature neurons, the “age” of these cells relative to cells in the human brain remains unresolved. Comparisons of gene expression profiles of hiPSC-derived neural progenitor cells (NPCs) and neurons to the Allen BrainSpan Atlas indicate that hiPSC neural cells most resemble first trimester neural tissue. Consequently, we posit that hiPSC-derived neural cells may most accurately be used to model the early developmental defects that contribute to disease predisposition rather than the late features of the disease. Though the characteristic symptoms of schizophrenia (SCZD) generally appear late in adolescence, it is now thought to be a neurodevelopmental condition, often predated by a prodromal period that can appear in early childhood. Postmortem studies of SCZD brain tissue typically describe defects in mature neurons, such as reduced neuronal size and spine density in the prefrontal cortex and hippocampus, but abnormalities of neuronal organization, particularly in the cortex, have also been reported. We postulated that defects in cortical organization in SCZD might result from abnormal migration of neural cells. To test this hypothesis, we directly reprogrammed fibroblasts from SCZD patients into hiPSCs and subsequently differentiated these disorder-specific hiPSCs into NPCs. SCZD hiPSC differentiated into forebrain NPCs have altered expression of a number of cellular adhesion genes, reduced WNT signaling and aberrant cellular migration. 3 independent differentiations (biological replicates) for each of four control and four schizophrenic patients were analyzed.

Project description:Organoid models provide powerful tools to study tissue biology and development in a dish. Here, we established first-time organoid models from early-postnatal (postnatal day 7) mouse molar and incisor, capable of differentiation toward ameloblast-like cells in vitro. To more in detail characterise organoids from mouse molar and incisor, bulk RNA-sequencing was performed on the following (1) early passage (passage 0) organoids from both tooth types grown in basal tooth organoid medium (TOM) with or without addition of exogenous epidermal growth factor (EGF); and (2) late passage (passage 5) organoids grown in TOM+EGF or differentiation medium (DM).

Project description:Parkinson disease (PD) is characterized by extensive loss of A9 dopaminergic (DA) neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc). A strong association has been reported between PD and exposure to mitochondrial toxins such as the environmental pesticides paraquat, maneb, and rotenone. Here, using a robust, patient-derived, stem cell model of PD that allows comparison of -synuclein ( -syn) mutant cells and isogeneic mutation-corrected controls, we identify mitochondrial toxin-induced perturbations specific to A53T -syn mutant A9-DA neurons (hNs). We report a novel molecular pathway whereby basal as well as toxin-induced oxidative and nitrosative stress inhibits the MEF2C-PGC1 transcription network in A53T hNs compared to corrected controls, contributing to mitochondrial dysfunction and apoptotic cell death. Our data provide mechanistic insight into gene-environmental interaction (GxE) in the pathogenesis of PD. Furthermore, using small molecule high-throughput screening, we identify the MEF2C-PGC1 pathway as a new drug target for therapeutic benefit in PD. In the current study, isogenic hiPSCs differing exclusively at a single amino acid (A53T) were exposed to either 2.8uM paraquat in combination with 1uM maneb for 24h or PBS vehicle control. Gene expression profile was analysed to assess the effect of both the genotype and exposure regiment on gene expression.

Project description:Throughout the various stages of tooth development, reciprocal epithelial-mesenchymal interactions are the driving force, for instance crucially involved in the differentiation of mature enamel-forming ameloblasts and dentin-producing odontoblasts. Here we established mouse tooth ‘assembloids’, comprised of tooth organoid-derived dental epithelial cells (from mouse molars and incisors) cultured together with molar dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs), to mimic these developmental interactions. Assembloids from both tooth types were grown both in basal- and differentiation-inducing conditions. Single cell transcriptomics analysis was applied to in detail characterize and validate the newly developed mouse tooth assembloid model and evaluate the induced differentiation processes.

Project description:We monitored 9 pluripotent stem cell lines across three time points of hepatic directed differentiation, representing 3 developmental stages: undifferentiated (T0), definitive endoderm (T5), and early hepatocyte (T24). ESCs (n=3) and patient-derived normal (n=3) or PiZZ (n=3) iPSCs were analyzed in the undifferentiated state (T0), after differentiation to definitive endoderm (T5), and upon reaching hepatic stage (T24) for a total of 27 samples. We sought to test the hypothesis that a single transgene-free iPSC clone from each donor could be used to detect disease-specific differences between the normal cohort and the PiZZ cohort, anticipating that this difference would emerge only at a developmental stage in which the mutant AAT gene is expressed. Cells were sorted before analysis at T0 and T5 after antibody staining for TRA1-80+/SSEA3+ (T0) or C-kit+/CXCR4+ (T5) cells. ESCs (n=3) and patient-derived normal (n=3) or PiZZ (n=3) iPSCs were analyzed in the undifferentiated state (T0), after differentiation to definitive endoderm (T5), and upon reaching hepatic stage (T24) for a total of 27 samples. Cells were sorted before analysis at T0 and T5 after antibody staining for TRA1-80+/SSEA3+ (T0) or C-kit+/CXCR4+ (T5) cells. RNA was extracted at each stage, biotin labeled, and hybridized to either Affymetrix GeneChip Human Gene 1.0 ST or miRNA 2.0 arrays. For methylation analysis, gDNA was sorted from the same 27 samples before undergoing bisulfite conversion. Bisulfite converted DNA was then amplified and purified prior to overnight hybridization to Illumina’s Infinium HumanMethylation 450 BeadChips. Next day staining of hybridized arrays produced methylation-dependent differential fluorescence that was detected via an Illumina iScan array scanner.
