Purification of Human iPSC-derived Cardiomyocytes in a Large Scale Using MicroRNA Switch and Magnetic-activated Cell Sorting
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: We showed novel synthetic microRNA (miRNA) switch system, which can purify large quantities of iPSC-CMs using magnetic-activated cell sorting (MACS). We used miR-208a, which is specifically expressed in cardiomyocytes, as a specific miRNA of CMs, and CD4 as a selection marker for MACS. We synthesized a miRNA switch encoding CD4 tagged with complementary sequences against miR-208a (miR-208a CD4 switch). We transfected this switch into differentiated cells, and easily got efficiently purified CMs in a large scale with MACS. In addition, we demonstrated that purified cells were shown to be engrafted as CMs in mouse hearts.
