Rapid Generation of Regionally Specified CNS Neurons by Sequential Patterning and Conversion of Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells

Project description:The differentiation of patient-specific induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) into specific neuronal subtypes has been exploited as an approach to modeling a variety of neurological disorders. However, achieving a highly pure population of neurons is challenging when using directed differentiation methods, especially for neuronal subtypes generated by complex and protracted protocols. In this study, we efficiently produced highly pure populations of regionally specified CNS neurons by using a modified NGN2-Puromycin direct conversion protocol. The protocol is amenable across a range of iPSC lines, with an efficiency above 97% by day 21, and above 95% of neurons positive for MAP2. This NGN2-Puromycin conversion resulted in a significant number of peripheral neurons, but by incorporating a short CNS patterning step, we eliminated these peripheral neurons. Furthermore, we used the patterning step to control the rostral-caudal identity. This approach to sequential patterning and NGN2-Puromycin conversion, when patterned with SMAD inhibitors, produced pure populations of forebrain neurons; when SMAD inhibitors and WNT agonists were applied, the approach produced anterior hindbrain excitatory neurons, resulting in a neuronal population containing VSX2/SHOX2 V2a interneurons. Overall, this sequential patterning and conversion protocol can be used for the production of a variety of CNS excitatory neurons from patient-derived iPSCs, which is a highly versatile system for investigating early disease events for a range of neurological disorders including Alzheimer's disease, motor neurons disease and spinal cord injury.

Regionally specified human pluripotent stem cell-derived astrocytes exhibit different molecular signatures and functional properties.

Project description:Astrocytes display diverse morphologies in different regions of the central nervous system. Whether astrocyte diversity is attributable to developmental processes and bears functional consequences, especially in humans, is unknown. RNA-seq of human pluripotent stem cell-derived regional astrocytes revealed distinct transcript profiles, suggesting differential functional properties. This was confirmed by differential calcium signaling as well as effects on neurite growth and blood-brain barrier formation. Distinct transcriptional profiles and functional properties of human astrocytes generated from regionally specified neural progenitors under the same conditions strongly implicate the developmental impact on astrocyte diversity. These findings provide a rationale for renewed examination of regional astrocytes and their role in the pathogenesis of psychiatric and neurological disorders.

Transcription profiling of human neural progenitors, neurons, and regionally specified astrocytes from human embryonic stem cells

Project description:These arrays were conducted in order to confirm the generation of astrocytes from human embryonic stem cells and to determine expression differences between astrocyte subtypes. Experiment Overall Design: Human embryonic stem cells were differentated in vitro to neuroepithelial cells (day-17), neurons (day-50), or astrocytes (day-180) after specification with the morphogens retinoic acid (RA) or FGF8 from days 10-21.

Functional astrocytes differentiated from hiPSCs

Project description:Growing evidence implicates the importance of glia, particularly astrocytes, in neurological and psychiatric diseases. Here, we describe a rapid and robust method for the differentiation of highly pure populations of astrocytes from human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs), via a neural progenitor cell (NPC) intermediate. Using this method, we generated hiPSC-derived astrocyte populations (hiPSC-astrocytes) from 42 NPC lines (derived from 30 individuals) with an average of ~90% S100β-positive cells. Transcriptomic analysis demonstrated that the hiPSC-astrocytes are highly similar to primary human fetal astrocytes and characteristic of a non-reactive state. hiPSC-astrocytes respond to inflammatory stimulants, display phagocytic capacity and enhance microglial phagocytosis. hiPSC-astrocytes also possess spontaneous calcium transient activity. Our novel protocol is a reproducible, straightforward (single media) and rapid (<30 days) method to generate homogenous populations of hiPSC-astrocytes that can be used for neuron-astrocyte and microglia-astrocyte co-cultures for the study of neuropsychiatric disorders.

Differentiation of Inflammation-responsive Astrocytes from Glial Progenitors Generated from Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells

Project description:The goals of this study are to generate inflammation-sensitive astrocytes from human induced pluripotent stem cells. We examine the transcriptomic inflammatory signature of generated astrocytes following Il1Beta exposure. Primary human cerebellar astrocytes, human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSC)-derived neural precursor cells (NPCs) and hiPSC-derived astrocytes were treated with Il1beta and compared to vehicle treated controls. Results: hiPSC-derived can be differentiated to astrocytes that are inflammation sensitive.
