Single cell transcriptomics of hESC-derived midbrain dopaminergic neurons generated by a new human development-based protocol

ABSTRACT: Recent advances in stem cell technologies provide new opportunities for regenerative medicine and ParkinsonÃ¢Â€Â™s disease modelling. However, the precise composition and quality of human embryonic stem cell (hESC)-derived preparations at the single cell level, compared to endogenous brain standards, remains to be determined. In addition, multiple developmental pathways important for midbrain dopaminergic (mDA) neuron development remain to be implemented in hESCs. Here we use mouse developmental knowledge and human single cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) data to generate a new development-based protocol to differentiate hESCs into mDA neurons. We found that Laminin 511, dual WNT activation with CHIR99021 and WNT5A, together with FGF8b, improved different aspects of midbrain patterning. Moreover, mDA neurogenesis and differentiation were enhanced by activation of liver X receptors and inhibition of fibroblast growth factor signaling. Analysis of hESC-derived midbrain cultures by scRNA-seq revealed multiple hESC-derived clusters, which resembled those in the endogenous human ventral midbrain. Moreover, high quality mDA neurons were detected and found to progressively acquire functionality in vitro. Thus, we hereby provide a hESC differentiation protocol that recapitulates several aspects of endogenous mDA neuron development, and a strategy to determine cell composition and quality of hESC-derived preparations that can be useful for disease modeling and cell therapy.

Co-immumnoprecipitation experiments to identify protein bindining partners of CSDE1

Project description:While the transcriptional network of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) has been extensively studied, relatively little is known about how post-transcriptional modulations determine hESC function. RNA-binding proteins play central roles in RNA regulation, including translation and turnover. Here we show that the RNA-binding protein CSDE1 is highly expressed in hESCs to maintain their undifferentiated state and prevent default neural fate. Notably, loss of CSDE1 accelerates neural differentiation and potentiates neurogenesis. Conversely, ectopic expression of CSDE1 impairs neural differentiation. We find that CSDE1 post-transcriptionally modulates core components of multiple regulatory nodes of hESC identity, neuroectoderm commitment and neurogenesis. Among these key pro-neural/neuronal factors, CSDE1 binds fatty acid binding protein 7 (FABP7) and vimentin (VIM) mRNAs as well as transcripts involved in neuron projection development regulating their stability and translation. Thus, our results uncover CSDE1 as a central post-transcriptional regulator of hESC identity and neurogenesis. This proteomics dataset contains the data from co-immunopreciptation experiments using CSDE1 antibody in hESCs

A post-transcriptional program coordinated by CSDE1 prevents intrinsic neural differentiation of human embryonic stem cells

Project description:We compared hESCs with their neuronal counterpart to quantify differences in the expression of cold-shock domain containing proteins.

Proteome profiling of an isogenic CAG allelic panel of Huntington disease hESCs and NPCs

Project description:Whole proteome profiling and quantification was performed on an isogenic Huntington disease (IsoHD) human embryonic stem cell (hESC) allelic panel. The IsoHD hESCs harbour 30, 45, 65 and 81 CAG repeats in the first exon of HTT. Whole proteome quantification was also performed on neural progenitor cells derived from the IsoHD hESC panel.

3' RNA-Seq (3'SEQ) analysis gene expression profiling at G1-S transition in human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) and hESC-derived endoderm cells

Project description:In this report, we examine transcripts on a genome-wide level between the synchronized cell cycles of hESCs and hESC-derived endoderm cells. We found 10347, 10299 and 10362 genes expressed in the G1, G1/S, and S phase of hESCs, respectively; 10333, 10227 and 10215 genes expressed at the G1, G1/S and S phase of derived endoderm. We compared the transcriptome between these data sets and identified genes with differentiated phase expression between hESCs and hESC-derived endoderm cells. Examination of the transcriptome at the G1-S transition in hESCs compared to hESC-derived endoderm cells.

Comparsion of different hESC line derived neural progenitor cells (hNPCs)

Project description:The self-renewal and differentiation potential of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) suggests that hESCs could be used for regenerative medicine, especially for restoring neuronal functions in brain diseases. However, the functional properties of neurons derived from hESC are largely unknown. Moreover, since hESCs were derived under diverse conditions, the possibility arises that neurons derived from different hESC lines exhibit distinct properties, but this possibility remains unexplored. To address these issues, we developed a protocol that allows step-wise generation from hESCs of ~70-80% pure human neurons that form spontaneously active synaptic networks in culture. Comparison of neurons derived from the well-characterized HSF1 and HSF6 hESC lines revealed that HSF1- but not HSF6-derived neurons exhibit forebrain properties. Accordingly, HSF1-derived neurons initially form primarily GABAergic synaptic networks, whereas HSF6-derived neurons initially form glutamatergic networks. microRNA profiling revealed significant expression differences between the two hESC lines, suggesting that microRNAs may influence their distinct differentiation properties. These observations indicate that although both HSF1 and HSF6 hESCs differentiate into functional neurons, the two hESC lines exhibit distinct differentiation potentials, suggesting that they are pre-programmed. Information on hESC line-specific differentiation biases is crucial for neural stem cell therapy and establishment of novel disease models using hESCs. Keywords: Gene expression profiling

ELABELA Is an Endogenous Growth Factor that Sustains hESC Self-Renewal Via the PI3K/AKT Pathway

Project description:ELABELA (ELA) is a peptide hormone required for heart development that signals via the Apelin Receptor (APLNR, APJ). ELA is also abundantly secreted by human embryonic stem cells (hESCs), which do not express APLNR. Here we show that ELA signals in a paracrine fashion in hESCs to maintain self-renewal. ELA inhibition by CRISPR/Cas9-mediated deletion, shRNA or neutralizing antibodies causes reduced hESC growth, cell death and loss of pluripotency. Global phosphoproteomic and transcriptomic analyses of ELA-pulsed hESCs show that it activates PI3K/AKT/mTORC1 signaling required for cell survival. ELA promotes hESC cell cycle progression and protein translation, and blocks stress-induced apoptosis. INSULIN and ELA have partially overlapping functions in hESC medium, but only ELA can potentiate the TGFβ pathway to prime hESCs towards the endoderm lineage. We propose that ELA, acting through an alternate cell-surface receptor, is an endogenous secreted growth factor in human embryos and hESCs that promotes growth and pluripotency. Global Transcriptomic Analysis of INSULIN versus ELA-pulsed human embryonic stem cells was performed to elucidate the functional overlap between these two ligands
