DNA Methylation profiling of human iNBSCs, iPSC-derived NBSCs and adult dermal fibroblasts
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: We describe a so far uncharacterized, embryonic and self-renewing Neural Plate Border Stem Cell (NBSC) population with the capacity to differentiate into central nervous and neural crest lineages. NBSCs can be obtained by neural transcription factor-mediated reprogramming (BRN2, SOX2, KLF4, and ZIC3) of human adult dermal fibroblasts and peripheral blood cells (induced Neural Plate Border Stem Cells, iNBSCs) or by directed differentiation from human induced pluripotent stem cells (NBSCs). Moreover, human (i)NBSCs share molecular and functional features with an endogenous NBSC population isolated from neural folds of E8.5 mouse embryos. Upon differentiation, iNBSCs give rise to either (1) radial glia-type stem cells, dopaminergic and serotonergic neurons, motoneurons, astrocytes, and oligodendrocytes or (2) cells from the neural crest lineage. Here we provide array-based methylation data of iNBSCs reprogrammed from adult dermal fibroblasts (ADF), iPSC-derived NBSCs and adult dermal fibroblasts. The data provided demonstrate robust changes in the methylation landscape after reprogramming of human adult dermal fibroblasts into iNBSCs.
