Mesenchymal Stromal Cells Derived from Human Embryonic Stem Cells, Fetal Limb and Bone Marrow Share a Common Phenotype but are Transcriptionally and Biologically Different [I]

ABSTRACT: Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) can be obtained from several sources and the significant differences in their properties, makes it crucial to investigate the differentiation potential of MSCs from different sources to determine the optimal source of MSCs. We investigated if this biological heterogeneity in MSCs from different sources results in different mechanisms for their differentiation. In this study, we compared the gene expression patterns of phenotypically defined MSCs derived from three ontogenically different sources: Embryonic stem cells (hES-MSCs), Fetal limb (Flb-MSCs) and Bone Marrow (BM-MSCs). Differentially expressed genes between differentiated cells and undifferentiated controls were compared across the three MSC sources. We found minimal overlap in differential gene expression (5-16%) among the three sources. Flb-MSCs were similar to BM-MSCs based on differential gene expression patterns. Pathway analysis of the differentially expressed genes using Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) revealed a large variation in the canonical pathways leading to MSC differentiation. The similar canonical pathways among the three sources were lineage specific. The Flb-MSCs showed maximum overlap of canonical pathways with the BM-MSCs, indicating that the Flb-MSCs is an intermediate source between the less specialised hES-MSC source and the more specialised BM-MSC source. The source specific pathways prove that MSCs from the three ontogenically different sources use different biological pathways to obtain similar differentiation outcomes. Thus our study advocates the understanding of biological pathways to obtain optimal sources of MSCs for various clinical applications.

Project description:Purpose: Most studies conducted towards understanding the differences among the adult sources of MSCs (BM-MSC and AD-MSC) and UC-MSCs have focused on their phenotypic properties which cannot provide an idea of the functional characteristics changing at the molecular level. Even NGS studies done before, each each study focuses on a different profiling methodology, which makes it difficult to establish a molecular equivalency among the various datasets. We undertake an integrative omics comparison between UC-MSC and two other popular sources of adult MSC (BM-MSC and AD-MSC), with the reasoning that a joint modeling of the changes occurring at the various functional levels will provide greater in-depth insight into the molecular heterogeneity related to different sources of MSCs. Methods: human Mesenchymal Stem Cell (MSC) mRNA cultured under basal conditions in Xeno-free media were subjected to deep sequencing. Three different MSC sourcers : adipose (AD-MSC), bone-marrow (BM-MSC) and Wharton-jelly umbilical cord (UC-MSC) were used and three donors from each tissues source along with three biological replicates for each donor were sequenced using the Illumina PE 150 platform. The sequence reads that passed quality filters Q30≥ 80% were analyzed using DESeq2. Results: Using an optimized data analysis workflow, we identified 24,804 transcripts among the three different sources of MSCs. Among these 2127 transcripts (~10%) were found to be differentially expressed among the three sources of MSC, with a\Log2FC| ≥2 and FDR <0.05. Hierarchical clustering of differentially expressed genes uncovered significant differences among the neonatal source (UC-MSC) and adult-MSCs (AD-MSC and BM-MSC). Altered gene expression profiles among the sources was also confirmed using a proteomics study of the same three sources of MSC with the same donors. Further, secretory immune-regulatory molecules which were confirmed to be differentially expressed among the MSC sources using the integrated transcriptomics-proteomics approach was validated using a Luminex cytokine profiling study. Conclusions: Our study represents the first detailed integrated analysis of differential gene expression profiling among source-specific human Mesenchymal Stem Cells using a multi-omics approach to validate the observed transcriptomic changes at both the translational as well as secretory levels. Our results offer a comhrehensive evaluation of the differences in immune signaling that exists among the different sourcrs of MSC based on their tissue of origina nd which subsequently plays a decisive role in determining the "regenrative siganture" of these MSCs based on the match between "immune-signature" and "disease type".

Project description:Cyclic regeneration of the endometrium, and its repair after parturition or injury, are crucial for successful reproduction. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived from bone marrow (BM-MSC) facilitate tissue repair via their secretome, which contains growth factors and cytokines that promote wound healing. Despite the implication of MSCs in endometrial regeneration and repair, the mechanisms remain unclear. This study tested the hypothesis that the secretome of MSCs from human BM upregulates human endometrial stromal cell (HESC) proliferation, migration and invasion, and activates pathways to increase HESC motility. MSCs were purchased from ATCC (BM-MSC-1) and cultured from the BM aspirate of a healthy female donor (BM-MSC-2). Indirect co-culture of MSCs and hTERT-immortalized HESCs via a transwell system studied the effect of the BM-MSC secretome on HESC proliferation, migration, and invasion. To study the effect of the MSC secretome on HESC gene expression, HESCs were exposed to the BM-MSC secretome via indirect co-culture for 24 h. Total RNA was extracted from HESCs for RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq). Differentially expressed genes (DEG) and significantly altered pathways were identified. Indirect co-culture of HESCs with BM- MSCs resulted in significant increase in HESC migration and invasion regardless of the source of MSCs. Effects on cellular proliferation varied among the BM-MSC source. Exposure of HESCs to the secretome of BM-MSCs changed the expression of 10,141 genes with FDR < 0.05. There was overlap among 4351 genes between HESCs exposed to BM-MSC-1 and BM-MSC-2, including upregulated expression of cell motility genes common to both BM-MSC exposures. Increased HESC motility by the secretome of BM-MSC appears to be mediated by paracrine and autocrine mechanisms, in part by modifying HESC gene expression. These data support the potential for leveraging the MSC secretome as a novel cell-free therapy in the treatment of disorders of endometrial regeneration.
