Unravelling Heterogeneity of Amplified Human Amniotic Fluid Stem Cells Sub-Populations

ABSTRACT: Human amniotic fluid stem cells (hAFSCs) are broadly multipotent immature progenitor cells with high self-renewal and no tumorigenic properties. These cells, even amplified, present very variable morphology, density, intracellular composition and stemness potential, and this heterogeneity can hinder their characterization and potential use in regenerative medicine. Celector® (Stem Sel ltd.) is a new technology that exploits the Non-Equilibrium Earth Gravity Assisted Field Flow Fractionation principles to characterize and label-free sort stem cells based on their solely physical characteristics without any manipulation. Viable cells are collected and used for further studies or direct applications. In order to understand the intrapopulation heterogeneity, various fractions of hAFSCs were isolated using the Celector® profile and live imaging feature. The gene expression profile of each fraction was analysed using whole-transcriptome sequencing (RNAseq). Gene Set Enrichment Analysis identified significant differential expression in pathways related to Stemness, DNA repair, E2F targets, G2M checkpoint, hypoxia, EM transition, mTORC1 signalling, Unfold Protein Response and p53 signalling. These differences were validated by RT-PCR, immunofluorescence and differentiation assays. Interestingly, the different fractions showed distinct and unique stemness properties. These results suggest the existence of deep intra-population differences that can influence the stemness profile of hAFSCs. This study represents a proof-of-concept of the importance of selecting certain cellular fractions with the highest potential to use in regenerative medicine.

Transcription profile of primordium gut organs

Project description:Induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells are a novel stem cell population induced from mouse and human adult somatic cells through reprogramming by transduction of defined transcription factors. Recently, researchers success in generation various cells from iPSCs. Lung progenitor cells are able to differentiate to all of the cells exist in adult lung, attract attention for regenerative medicine. It is known to present between embryonic day 9.5 from 13.5 in mice. We can realized at regenerative medicine in lung using lung progenitor cell surface markers defined by compering each endoderm primordia of organ formation. We investigated the differences in gene expression of each endoderm organ. Mouse gut organs morphogenesis begin at E9.5-E11.5. The primordium lung, esophagus, stomach, and intestine at E11.5 were dissected and analysed transcription profile.

scNMT-seq of the adult NSC lineage - DNA methylation and chromatin accessibility

Project description:Stem cells in the adult brain are specialized astrocytes capable of generating neurons and glial cells. While neural stem cells (NSCs) and common astrocytes have clearly distinct functions, they share highly similar transcriptome profiles. How stemness is molecularly encoded is therefore unclear. Here we use single-cell NMT-seq to simultaneously characterize the transcriptome, DNA methylome and chromatin accessibility of astrocytes and the NSC lineage in the healthy and ischemic brain. Our data reveal distinct methylation profiles associated with either astrocyte or stem cell function. Stemness is conferred by methylation of astrocyte genes and demethylation of neurogenic genes that are expressed only later. Surprisingly, ischemic injury unlocks the stemness-methylome in common astrocytes enabling generation of neuroblasts. Furthermore, we show that oligodendrocytes employ Tet-mediated demethylation to regulate expression of myelin-related genes, many of which are abnormally methylated in multiple sclerosis. Overall, we show that DNA methylation is a promising target for regenerative medicine.

Cultured human amniotic fluid-derived mesenchymal stromal cells [PIQOR data]

Project description:Human amniotic fluid-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (hAMSC) have become one of the main cell populations used in regenerative medicine and for the study of various clinical disorders. These cells have a great capacity for proliferation and differentiation, do not form teratomas when transplanted into animal models and their stemness seems to be between embryonic cells and adult mesenchymal cells. Prior to their use in cell therapy they must be cultured and expanded in vitro, but the effect this process has on their fitness, a determining factor for the success or failure of cell therapy, is unknown. We undertook a follow-up of gene and microRNAs (miRNAs) expression using microarray of a hAMSC population kept under in vitro culture conditions for the first 15 passages. Significant changes were noted in the expression of various mRNAs and miRNAs, particularly down-regulation of TP53, increased expression of hsa-miR-125a and up-regulation of CDKN2D. The variations in TP53 and hsa-miR-125a may act as an indicator of the stemness of the hAMSC, whereas CDKN2D may indicate the reduction in the proliferative capacity of these cells in a TP53-independent mechanism. The genes described in this study will help evaluate the fitness of hAMSC, thus guaranteeing their biological quality for use in regenerative medicine. The variations in the expression patterns of the mRNAs were studied using topic-defined PIQOR Stem Cell microarrays. Human amniotic fluid-derived mesenchymal stromal cells pellets of 5 x 10E5 cells were cryopreserved in liquid nitrogen and send to Miltenyi Biotec for their analysis. A pool of non-stimulated lymphocytes (non-mitotic cell cycle) obtained by Ficoll isolation in the Immunology Service of Carlos Haya hospital was used as a control of the expression.

Gene expression profile of osteogenically differentiated human adipose-derived stem cells

Project description:Adipose tissue harbours a significant number of multipotent adult stem cells of mesenchymal origin known as adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs). Broad differentiation potential and convenient accessibility of ADSCs make them an attractive source of adult mesenchymal stem cell for regenerative medicine and cell developmental plasticity research. Genome-wide microarray expression profiling was performed to identify genes deregulated during osteogenic differentiation of ADSCs to evaluate developmental plasticity of these cells. Dynamics of epigenetic modifications were analyzed in parallel and associated with the gene expression profile. Gene expression profile was analyzed in adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) differentiated into osteogenic lineage from 3 donors and compared to undifferentiated cells from the same donors.

Mesenchymal stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles

Project description:Therapeutic benefits of mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) are now widely believed to come from their paracrine signalling, i.e. secreted factors such as cytokines, chemokines, and extracellular vesicles (EVs). Cell-free therapy using EVs is an active and emerging field in regenerative medicine. The cellular environment of MSCs is of critical importance when directing paracrine activity. Typical 2D cultivation of stem cells on tissue culture plastic is far removed from the physiological environment of MSCs. The application of 3D cell culture allows MSCs to adapt to their cellular niche environment which, in turn, influences their paracrine signalling activity. In this study we evaluated the impact of 3D MSCs culture on EVs secretion and cargo proteome composition and functional assessment. The outcome highlights critical differences between MSC-EVs obtained from different culture microenvironments, which should be considered when scaling up MSC culture for clinical manufacturing.

Gene expression analysis of FOXN1+ thymic endoderm cells derived from the in vitro differentiation of human embryonic stem cells

Project description:The goal of this study was to document the gene expression profile of FOXN1+ thymic endoderm cells derived from the in vitro differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells. Thymic epithelial cells (TECs) play a critical role in T-cell maturation and tolerance induction. The generation of TECs from in vitro differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) would provide a platform for studying the mechanisms of this interaction and have implications for immune reconstitution. To facilitate analysis of PSC-derived TECs, we generated human embryonic stem cell (hESC) reporter lines in which sequences encoding GFP were targeted to FOXN1, a gene required for TEC development. Using this FOXN1GFP/w line as a read out, we developed a reproducible protocol for generating FOXN1-GFP+ thymic endoderm cells. Transcriptional profiling and flow cytometry identified Integrin-β4 (ITGB4, CD104) and HLA-DR as markers that could be used in combination with EpCAM to selectively purify FOXN1+ TEC progenitors from differentiating cultures of unmanipulated PSCs. Human FOXN1+ TEC progenitors generated from PSCs will facilitate the study of thymus biology and are a valuable resource for future applications in regenerative medicine Human embryonic stem cells were differentiated for 30 days using the protocol described by Soh et al, 2014. The hESCs used in this protocol had been genetically modified by targeting sequences encoding GFP to the FOXN1 locus, thus enabling FOXN1 expressing cells to be identified on the basis of GFP expression. At differentiation day 30, differentiating cells were separated into three fractions using FACS. These fractions were the FOXN1+(GFP+)EpCAM+, FOXN1-(GFP-)EpCAM+, FOXN1-(GFP-)EpCAM-.

Generation of Autologous Pluripotent Stem Cells from Adult Testis Biopsy

Project description:In regenerative medicine, histocompatibility of pluripotent stem cells is required to solve the problem of immunorejection after therapeutic transplantation. In this study, we show that autologous germline stem cells (GSCs), often called spermatogonial stem cells, could be derived by testis biopsy from individual mice and that GSCs subsequently could be dedifferentiated into autologous germline-derived pluripotent stem (gPS) cells. The establishment of GSCs by testicular biopsy in the mouse model can prove the principle of human clinical application to derive autologous GSCs to generate patient-specific pluripotent cells for regenerative medicine.

Cellhesion VP enhances the therapeutic potential of human Wharton’s jelly-derived mesenchymal stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles

Project description:Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) transplantation is a promising therapy for regenerative medicine. However, MSCs cultured in two-dimensional (2D) culture conditions are significantly different from the cell shape in the body, down-regulation of stemness genes and the secretion of paracrine factors. Here, we evaluated the effect of 3D culture using Cellhesion VP, a water-insoluble material composing of chitin-based polysaccharide fibers, on the characteristics of human Wharton’s jelly-derived MSCs (hWJ-MSCs). Cellhesion VP significantly increased the cell proliferation after retrieval. Transcriptome analysis revealed that genes involved in cell stemness, migration ability, and extracellular vesicle (EV) production appeared to be enhanced by 3D culture. Subsequent biochemical analyses showed that the expression levels of stemness genes including OCT4, NANOG, and SSEA4 were up-regulated, and migration capacity was elevated in 3D cultured hWJ-MSCs. In addition, the EV production was significantly increased in 3D cells, which contained a distinct protein profile from 2D cells. Gene and drug connectivity analysis revealed that the 2D and 3D EVs had similar functions as immunomodulators; however, 3D EVs had completely distinct therapeutic profiles on various infectious and metabolic diseases by activating the disease-associated signaling pathways. Therefore, EVs from Cellhesion VP-primed hWJ-MSCs appear as a new treatment for immune and metabolic diseases.
