Evaluating the Efficacy of Small Molecules for Neural Differentiation of Common Marmoset ESCs and iPSCs

ABSTRACT: The common marmoset (marmoset; Callithrix jacchus) harbors various desired features as a non-human primate (NHP) model for neuroscience research. Recently, efforts have been made to induce neural cells in vitro from marmoset pluripotent stem cells (PSCs), including embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), which are characterized by their capacity to differentiate into all cell types from the three germ layers. Successful generation of marmoset neural cells is not only invaluable for understanding neural development and for modeling neurodegenerative and psychiatric disorders, but is also necessary for the phenotypic screening of genetically-modified marmosets. However, differences in the differentiation propensity among PSC lines hamper the applicability and the reproducibility of differentiation methods. To overcome this limitation, we evaluated the efficacy of small molecules for neural differentiation of marmoset ESCs (cjESCs) and iPSCs using multiple differentiation methods. By immunochemical and transcriptomic analyses, we confirmed that our methods using the small molecules are efficient for various differentiation protocols by either enhancing the yield of a mixture of neural cells including both neurons and glial cells, or a pure population of neurons. Collectively, our findings optimized in vitro neural differentiation methods for marmoset PSCs, which would ultimately help enhance the utility of the animal model in neuroscience.

Bulk RNA-seq of PSCs and induced PSM cells from six different mammalian species

Project description:In this study, we performed bulk RNA-seq of pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) and induced pre-somitic mesoderm (PSM) cells of six different mammalian species. The species studied are: mouse (Mus musculus), marmoset (Callithrix jacchus), rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus), human (Homo sapiens), cattle (Bos taurus) and southern white rhinoceros (Ceratotherium simum). We used mouse ESCs, marmoset iPSCs, rabbit ESCs, human iPSCs, bovine ESCs and rhinoceros ESCs to induce PSM-like cells from these species following protocols already described. PSC samples were extracted under maintenance conditions. PSM samples were extracted on the day when the differentiation efficiency was higher based on the percentage of cells expressing the PSM marker TBX6. We used identical culture conditions when extracting the induced PSM cells to minimize the effect of external factors on our results. Two replicates per each cell type and species were collected for a total of 24 samples. We compared the expression levels of more than 10,000 orthologous protein-coding genes across the six species. With this, we determined that the species-specific segmentation clock periods might be derived from species-specific gene expression profiles controlling basic biological processes.

Elevated p53 Activaties Restrict Differentiation Potential of microRNA-deficient Pluripotent Stem Cells

Project description:Pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) deficient for microRNAs (miRNAs), such as Dgcr8-/- or Dicer-/- embryonic stem cells (ESCs), contain no mature miRNA and cannot differentiate into somatic cells. How miRNA deficiency causes differentiation defects remains poorly understood. Here, we report that miR-302 is sufficient to enable neural differentiation of differentiation-incompetent Dgcr8-/- ESCs. Our data showed that miR-302 directly suppresses the tumor suppressor p53, which is modestly upregulated in Dgcr8-/- ESCs and serves as a barrier restricting neural differentiation. We demonstrated that direct inactivation of p53 by SV40 large T antigen, a short hairpin RNA against Trp53, or genetic ablation of Trp53 in Dgcr8-/- PSCs enables neural differentiation, while activation of p53 by the MDM2 inhibitor nutlin-3a in wild-type ESCs inhibits neural differentiation. Together, we demonstrate that a major function of miRNAs in neural differentiation is suppression of p53 and that modest activation of p53 blocks neural differentiation of miRNA-deficient PSCs.

LC-MSMS of the MHC-I immunopeptidome of human iPSCs

Project description:The development of cancer immunotherapeutics is limited by the discovery of actionable tumor-specific antigens (TSAs), which need to be presented at high levels on cancer cells, but not presented by normal tissues or presented at levels below the threshold for T-cell recognition to prevent autoimmunity. Accumulating evidence indicates that pluripotent stem cells (PSCs), namely embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and induced PSCs (iPSCs), express a class of pluripotency-associated MHC-I-associated peptides (paMAPs) that can be recognized by tumor-specific T cells. Hence, being strictly confined to the embryonic stage of development and absent from healthy adult tissues, paMAPs shared by iPSCs and tumors would represent ideal targets for the development of TSA-based vaccines against a wide range of cancers. We performed immunopeptidomic analyses of human iPSCs and we identified a set of paMAPs that could serve for the design of TSA-based vaccines against many cancers.

Induction of regulatory M2 macrophage-like immunosuppressive cells from mouse ES cells that contribute to prolong allogeneic immune rejection

Project description:A promise of cell replacement therapy using pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) such as embryonic stem cells (ESCs) or induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) as donor source has been increased. However, particularly when ESCs were used, immune suppression should be required because the donor-recipient combination would be allogeneic. In this study, we examined a concept that some immunosuppressive cells could be induced from PSCs and those cells could prevent allogeneic immune rejection of the PSCs-based transplantation. In fact, we successfully induced immunosuppressive cells that resemble M2 macrophages in terms of cell surface molecule and gene expressions. They efficiently suppressed allogeneic T cell proliferative responses, at least partly, in nitric oxide dependent manner. We applied these cells to in vivoallogeneic transplantation and found that they substantially prolonged ESCs-derived graft survival. These results open a new insight for development of a practical immune-regulatory strategy in cell replacement therapy using PSCs. Difference of the gene expression between ESdSC and ESdDC was analyzed. Two independent experiment were performed.

Discrimination of Stem Cell Status after Subjecting Cynomolgus Monkey Pluripotent Stem Cells to Naive Conversion

Project description:Experimental animal models have played an indispensable role in the development of human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) research. The, derivation of high-quality (so-called “true Naive state”) iPSCs of non-human primates enhances their application and safety for human regenerative medicine. Although several attempts have been made to convert human and non-human primate PSCs into a truly Naive state, it is unclear which evaluation methods can discriminate them as being truly Naive. Here we derived Naive-like Cynomolgus monkey (Cm) (Macaca fascicularis) embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and iPSCs, and evaluated their potential as a highly accurate indicator of the properties of Naive-like human ESC/iPS cells. Several characteristics of Naive-like Cm ESCs including colony morphology, teratoma-forming ability, leukaemia inhibitory factor dependency, and mitochondrial respiration were confirmed. Next, we generated Cm iPSCs and converted them to a Naive-like state. When these were subjected to in vitro differentiation, some exhibited heterogeneity and showed resistance to differentiation. The difficulty of achieving chimeric contribution to mouse or rabbit embryos suggested incomplete Naive conversion. Actually, transcriptomic comparison of PSCs with early Cm embryos elucidated the partial achievement of Naive conversion. This study offers valuable pointers for deriving true Naive PSCs while avoiding irrelevant or misleading evidence of Naive-like features.

Primed and naïve marmoset pluripotent stem cells as a model for primate development

Project description:We derived primed pluripotent stem cell cultures (PSCs) from marmoset blastocyst using conventional human PSC culture conditions (KSR/bFGF on feeders). Naïve marmoset PSCs were established by chemical resetting. In addition, we generated forebrain-derived cells from the frontal lobe of a marmoset neonate. Individual cells were manually isolated with a mouth pipette and subjected to single-cell full-lengths transcriptome profiling using a modified version of Smart-Seq2.

Induced Pluripotent Cells Derived from Differentiated Rod Photoreceptors Undergo Efficient Retinogenesis in Three-Dimensional Cultures

Project description:"Embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are used to study lineage-specific differentiation in culture. We developed a standardized quantitative protocol called STEM-RET to compare eye field specification, optic cup formation, and retinal differentiation across stem cell populations. We reprogrammed individual rod photoreceptors into iPSCs by inducible expression of Oct3/4, Klf4, Sox2, and Myc. We also developed ESC lines from rods by somatic cell nuclear transfer. Using the STEM-RET protocol, we compared the abilities of ESCs, fibroblast-derived iPSCs (f-iPSCs), rod photoreceptor-derived iPSCs (r-iPSCs), and rod photoreceptorderived ESCs to form retinae using STEM-RET. r-iPSCs were the most efficient at producing differentiated retina. Retinae derived from f-iPSCs lacked an inner nuclear layer (INL) and had a concomitant reduction in amacrine cells and other INL cell populations. The INL-specific LIM homeobox gene, Lhx9, was hypermethylated in fiPSCs and concomitantly downregulated in retinae derived from those stem cells. ChIP-seq analysis for H3K36me3, H3K4me1, H3K4me3, H3K9/14Ac, H3K27me3, H3K9me3, CTCF and 5 hydroxymethyl cytosine showed that the major difference between the r-iPSCs and the f-iPSCs were in the genes marked by the CTCF insulator protein. Importantly, CTCF binding enrichment at rod photoreceptor specific genes was at least 10-fold higher in r-iPSCs relative to f-iPSCs. Taken together, our data suggest that both inhibitory and permissive epigenetic marks important for retinal development can be retained in iPSCs and such marks can be exploited to select the most favorable stem cell population to study retinal development or produce photoreceptor precursors for cell transplantation."

Reprogramming-associated aberrant DNA methylation determines hematopoietic differentiation capacity of human induced pluripotent stem cells [iPSC_ESC_lines]

Project description:The variation among induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) in their differentiation capacity to specific lineages is frequently attributed to somatic memory. In this study, we compared hematopoietic differentiation capacity of 35 human iPSC lines derived from four different tissues and four embryonic stem cell lines. The analysis revealed that hematopoietic commitment capacity (PSCs to hematopoietic precursors) is correlated with the expression level of the IGF2 gene independent of the iPSC origins. In contrast, maturation capacity (hematopoietic precursors to mature blood) is affected by iPSC origin; blood-derived iPSCs showed the highest capacity. However, some fibroblast-derived iPSCs showed higher capacity than blood-derived clones. Tracking of DNA methylation changes during reprogramming reveals that maturation capacity is highly associated with aberrant DNA methylation acquired during reprogramming, rather than the types of iPSC origins. These data demonstrated that variations in the hematopoietic differentiation capacity of iPSCs are not attributable to somatic memories of their origins. Human iPSCs after hematopoietic differentiation (n = 2), human iPSCs after neural differentiation (n = 1), human iPSCs with different culture conditions (n = 8), and human iPSC line forced to express IGF2 gene (n = 1), and its control (n = 1).

Derivation of formative-like pluripotent stem cells from mammalian embryos [ChIP-Seq]

Project description:Two phases of pluripotency, naïve and primed, have been captured in vitro and studied in details1. A third formative phase was recently proposed to exist between naïve and primed phases2. Formative pluripotency entails permissiveness for direct primordial germ cell (PGC) induction and competence for blastocyst chimeras, and is characterized by transcriptional and epigenetic features intermediate of naïve and primed pluripotency. To date, however, stable pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) harboring formative features haven’t been derived from early mammalian embryos. Here we develop a method which enabled the derivation and culture of stable formative-like embryonic stem cells (ESCs) from mouse blastocysts. Formative-like mouse ESCs share molecular features characteristic of early post-implantation epiblasts and are competent for PGC-like cell induction and blastocyst chimera formation. The same culture also supported the derivation of ESCs and transgene-free induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from horse blastocysts and fibroblasts, respectively. Horse ESCs/iPSCs transcriptionally resembled mouse formative cells, and could also be directly induced into PGC-like cells. Formative-like horse iPSCs could efficiently chimerize horse, mouse, goat, sheep and pig embryos. Stable formative-like PSCs will be invaluable for studying mammalian pluripotency, and our method may be broadly applicable for the derivation of PGC and chimera competent PSCs from other mammalian species.
