The spatial self-organization within pluripotent stem cell colonies is continued in detaching aggregates (scRNA-Seq)

ABSTRACT: Colonies of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) reveal aspects of self-organization even under culture conditions that maintain pluripotent state. To investigate the dynamics of this process under spatial confinement we used either PDMS pillars or micro-contact printing of vitronectin. OCT4, E-cadherin, and NANOG were progressively upregulated within about 70 µm from the outer rim of iPSC colonies. Single-cell RNA-sequencing demonstrated that OCT4high subsets have pronounced up-regulation of the TGF-β pathway, particularly of NODAL and its inhibitor LEFTY, at the rim of the colonies. Furthermore, calcium-dependent cell-cell interaction seemed to be relevant for the self-organization. After 5 to 7 days, the iPSC colonies detached spontaneously from micro-contact printed substrates to form 3D aggregates. This new method allowed generation of embryoid bodies (EBs) of controlled size, without any enzymatic or mechanical treatment. Within the early 3D aggregates, the radial organization and differential gene expression continued in analogy to the changes observed during self-organization of flat iPSC colonies. Our results provide further insight into the gradual self-organization within iPSC colonies and at their transition into EBs.

Surface topography guides morphology and spatial patterning of induced pluripotent stem cell colonies

Project description:The relevance of topographic cues for commitment of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) is largely unknown. In this study, we demonstrate that groove-ridge structures with a periodicity in the submicrometer range induce elongation of iPSC colonies, guide the orientation of apical actin fibers, and direct the polarity of cell division. Elongation of iPSC colonies impacts also on their intrinsic molecular patterning, which seems to be orchestrated from the rim of the colonies. BMP4-induced differentiation is enhanced in elongated colonies, and the submicron grooves impact on the spatial modulation of YAP activity upon induction with this morphogen. Interestingly, TAZ, a YAP paralog, shows distinct cytoskeletal localization in iPSCs. These findings demonstrate that topography can guide orientation and organization of iPSC colonies, which may affect the interaction between mechanosensors and mechanotransducers in iPSCs.

Nanotopography guides morphology and spatial patterning of induced pluripotent stem cell colonies

Project description:The role of topographic cues in controlling commitment of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) is largely unknown. Here we demonstrate that groove-ridge nanostructures induce the elongation of iPSC colonies, guide the orientation of apical actin fibers and direct the polarity of cell division. Elongation of iPSC colonies impacts also on the intrinsic molecular patterning which seems to be orchestrated starting from the rim of the colonies. We followed the hypothesis that nanotopography directly modulates the transcriptional program of iPSC, further to guiding the overall spatial organization of the colonies. Single iPSC were seeded on flat (PI flat) and nanostructured polyimide (PI 650) and gene expression profiles were analyzed after three days. No significant differences were observed when cells were kept under culture conditions that sustained pluripotency. Then, we analyzed gene expression changes upon two weeks of multi-lineage differentiation. Many genes revealed significant expression changes in the course of differentiation and this was more pronounced on PI flat as compared to PI 650. Comparison of iPSC that were either differentiated on flat or nanostructured biomaterials revealed differential expression of several genes. Noteworthy, among significantly regulated genes, the biggest fold change on PI 650 versus PI flat after differentiation was observed in ANKRD1, which is one of the best readouts of YAP/TAZ activity. Our study suggests that nanotopography impacts on orientation and organization of iPSC colonies and highlight a possible interaction between mechanosensors and mechanotransducers.

YAP1 is essential for self-organized differentiation of pluripotent stem cells [RNAseq]

Project description:The Yes-associated protein 1 (YAP1) is a downstream effector of the Hippo pathway and essential mechanotransducer. It has been suggested to play a crucial role for early embryo development, but the relevance for early germ layer commitment of human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) remains largely unclear. To gain better insight into the functional relevance of YAP1 in these early cell-fate decisions, we generated iPSC lines with YAP1 knockout (YAP-/-) with CRISPR/Cas9 technology and analyzed transcriptomic and epigenetic modifications. In YAP-/- iPSCs the expression of several YAP1 targets changed and NODAL, which is an important regulator of cell differentiation, was upregulated. Furthermore, YAP1 deficiency evoked global DNA methylation changes. Directed differentiation of adherent iPSC colonies toward endoderm, mesoderm, and ectoderm could be induced, albeit endodermal and ectodermal differentiation showed transcriptomic and epigenetic changes in YAP-/- lines. Notably, in self-organized embryoid bodies (EBs) germ layer specification was clearly impaired. This phenotype was rescued via lentiviral overexpression of YAP1 and in tendency also by NODAL inhibitors. Our results demonstrate that YAP1 plays an important role during early germ layer specification of iPSCs, particularly for the non-directed self-organization of EBs, and this is at least partly attributed to activation of the NODAL pathway.

A compound-based therapy approach for epidermolysis bullosa simplex (EBS)

Project description:Keratin cytoskeletal proteins are crucial for the maintenance of skin integrity. Mutations in genes coding for K5 and K14 cause the human skin disorder epidermolysis bullosa simplex (EBS) leading to substantial alterations in keratin assembly and collapse of keratin filaments into cytoplasmic protein aggregates. The phenotypic consequences of K5 and K14 mutations comprise fragility of basal keratinocytes and skin blistering upon mild mechanical trauma. Treatment of EBS is only supportive and consists primarily of wound care and avoidance of mechanical stress. Besides symptomatic care, no efficient therapeutic treatment is available for EBS. In the present study, we used patient-derived keratinocytes carrying the most frequent K14.R125C mutation as a reproducible EBS model to understand EBS pathomechanisms and to develop a therapy approach aimed to restore a functional keratin network. Numerous post-translational modifications (PTMs) such as phosphorylation have been reported to occur on keratins, which affect the organization of keratin networks. Whether keratin mutations affect the occurrence of PTMs and thereby keratin aggregation in EBS is yet unknown. We find that the K14.R125C mutation alters keratin and keratin-associated protein PTMs in distinct ways and suggest that disease mutations and altered PTMs aggravate keratin aggregation. We reason that chemical compounds affecting the interplay of mutations and PTMs enable the reformation of a keratin cytoskeleton from aggregates are potential candidates for combating EBS.

kidney organoids derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC)

Project description:iPSCs were maintained on Geltrex coated flat culture dish in E8 media according to manufacturer’s guidelines. Colonies were manually harvested at 60-80% confluence. Cells were then collected and dissociated into single cells using EDTA. Cells were put on to ultra low attachment 24 well or 96 well plate to allow them to form aggregated in suspension with ROCK inhibitor. Cell aggregates 191were cultured in E8 medium with daily medium change for 6-7 days. Control iPSC-A (iPSC-aggregates) were plated on a Geltrex in 96 well plate or 8 well culture chamber. And then aggregates were treated E8 medium with daily medium change for 12-14 days.
