Highly efficient generation of blastocyst-like structures from mouse totipotent blastomere-like cells

ABSTRACT: Mammalian embryogenesis begins with a totipotent zygote. Early embryogenesis can be recapitulated by aggregated extended pluripotent stem cells (EPSCs) in a 3D culture system. However, the efficiency of generating blastoids is low and whether other reported totipotent stem cells retained a similar capacity remains unknown. Here we show that spliceosomal repressed totipotent blastomere-like cells (TBLCs) form blastocyst-like structures when aggregated in 3D microwells with around 80% efficiency. TBLC-blastoids resemble blastocysts in morphology and cell-lineage allocation, show similar transcriptional profile with natural blastocysts and contain more TE cells and fewer undefined intermediate cells compared to blastoids from EPSCs. Moreover, TBLC-blastoids can develop beyond the implantation stage in vitro and induce decidualization after transferred into uterus. In summary, we supply an alternative cell type to generate ameliorated blastoids highly efficiently for studying early mouse embryogenesis.

Employing totipotent cells to reconstruct embryogenesis [scRNA-seq]

Project description:Blastoids, a structure similar to blastocysts in morphological and molecular level, can be applied to regeneration research. Using totipotent cells to construct blastoids will extend the information of early development to an earlier stage, and explore clues of regeneration. Totipotent blastomere-like cells (TBLCs) are a novel type of stably cultured mouse totipotent cell line generated by inhibiting spliceosomes. Here, we constructed blastoids (TBL-blastoids) in a new three-dimensional culture system using TBLCs. Morphological and transcriptomic analysis revealed TBL-blastoids contained typical morphology and key cell lineages of blastocysts and had higher degree of consistency in developmental rate and morphology compared to other blastoids. Moreover, TBL-blastoids implanted into uterus, induced decidua and even developed to embryonic tissues, indicating their in vivo developmental potential. The expansion and structures of TBL-blastoids in the IVC system also showed their in vitro developmental potential. The efficiency of generating TBL-blastoids and implantation rate suggest the necessity of TE-like component formation. Meanwhile, TBLCs can differentiate into extraembryonic cell lines directly, which provides an alternative strategy for evaluating totipotency. Furthermore, we explored the impacts of senescence, a central role in regeneration, on TBLCs and found that cellular senescence impaired the totipotency of TBLCs and the efficiency of generating blastoids. Also, the in vivo and in vitro developmental potential of TBL-blastoids were declined. In conclusion, the induction of TBLCs into blastoids and extraembryonic cells is valuable for promoting regeneration, early embryonic development study and evaluating totipotency.

Generation of human blastocyst-like structures from pluripotent stem cells

Project description:Due to ethical concerns and restricted access to human blastocysts, we lack a comprehensive understanding of early human embryogenesis. A reliable model system that can recapitulate early stages of human embryogenesis would help solve this problem.Here we report a robust three-dimensional (3D), two-step induction protocol for generating blastocyst-like structures (EPS-blastoids) from human extended pluripotent stem (EPS) cells. Morphological and single-cell transcriptomic analyses revealed that EPS-blastoids contain key cell lineages and are transcriptionally similar to human blastocysts. Furthermore, EPS-blastoids also exhibited the developmental potential to undergo post-implantation morphogenesis in vitro to form structures with a cellular composition and transcriptome signature similar to human embryos that had been cultured in vitro for 8 or 10 days. In conclusion, human EPS-blastoids provide a robust new experimental platform for studying early developmental stages of the human embryo.

Generation of human blastocyst-like structures from pluripotent stem cells

Project description:Human blastocysts are comprised of the first three cell lineages of the embryo: trophectoderm, epiblast, and primitive endoderm, all of which are essential for early development and organ formation1,2. However, due to ethical concerns and restricted access to human blastocysts, we lack a comprehensive understanding of early human embryogenesis. To bridge this knowledge gap, we need a reliable model system that recapitulates early stages of human embryogenesis. Here we report a ∼three-dimensional (3D), two-step induction protocol for generating blastocyst-like structures (EPS-blastoids) from human extended pluripotent stem (EPS) cells. Morphological and single-cell transcriptomic analyses revealed that EPS-blastoids contain key cell lineages and are transcriptionally similar to human blastocysts. Furthermore, EPS-blastoids also exhibited the developmental potential to undergo post-implantation morphogenesis in vitro to form structures with a cellular composition and transcriptome signature similar to human embryos that had been cultured in vitro for 8 or 10 days. In conclusion, human EPS-blastoids provide a new experimental platform for studying early developmental stages of the human embryo.

Generation of Blastocyst-like Structures from Extended Pluripotent Stem Cells

Project description:A single mouse blastomere from until 8-cell embryo can generate an entire blastocyst. Whether blastomere-like extended pluripotent stem cells (EPS cells) retain a similar generative capacity remains unknown. Here, we established a 3D differentiation system that enabled the generation of blastocyst-like structures from EPS cells (EPS-blastoids) through lineage segregation and self-organization. EPS-blastoids resembled blastocysts in morphology and cell lineage allocation. EPS-blastoids formation recapitulated key morphogenetic events during preimplantation and early postimplantation development in vitro. Upon transfer, some EPS-blastoids underwent implantation, induced decidualization, and generated live, albeit disorganized, tissues in utero. Single cell and bulk RNA-sequencing analysis revealed that EPS-blastoids contained all three blastocyst cell lineages and shared transcriptional similarity with natural blastocysts. We also provide proof-of-concept that EPS-blastoids can be generated from somatic cells via cellular reprograming. EPS-blastoids provide a unique platform for studying early embryogenesis, and pave the way to generate viable synthetic embryos using cultured cells.

Self-renewing human naïve pluripotent stem cells dedifferentiate in 3D culture and form blastoids spontaneously

Project description:Human naïve pluripotent stem cells (hnPSCs) can generate integrated models of blastocysts termed blastoids upon switch to inductive medium. However, the underlying mechanisms remain obscure. Here we report that self-renewing hnPSCs spontaneously and efficiently give rise to blastoids upon three dimensional (3D) suspension culture. The spontaneous blastoids mimic early stage human blastocysts in terms of structure, size, and transcriptome characteristics and are capable of progressing to post-implantation stages. This property is conferred by the glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK3) signalling inhibitor IM-12 present in 5iLAF self-renewing medium. IM-12 upregulates oxidative phosphorylation-associated genes that underly the capacity of hnPSCs to generate blastoids spontaneously. Starting from day one of self-organization, hnPSCs at the boundary of all 3D aggregates dedifferentiate into E5 embryo-like intermediates. Intermediates co-express SOX2/OCT4 and GATA6 and by day 3 specify trophoblast fate, which coincides with cavity and blastoid formation. In summary, spontaneous blastoid formation results from 3D culture triggering dedifferentiation of hnPSCs into earlier embryo-like intermediates which are then competent to segregate blastocyst fates.

Bovine blastocyst like structures derived from stem cell cultures

Project description:Understanding blastocyst formation and implantation is critical for improving farm animal reproduction but is hampered by a limited supply of embryos. We developed an efficient method to generate bovine blastocyst-like structures (termed blastoids) via the assembly of trophoblast stem cells and expanded potential stem cells. Bovine blastoids resemble blastocysts in morphology, cell composition, single-cell transcriptomes, and represent an accessible in vitro model for studying bovine embryogenesis.

Protein expression landscape defines the formation potential of mouse blastoids from EPS cells

Project description:Preimplantation embryo development is a precisely regulated process organized by maternally inherited and newly synthesized proteins. Recently, some studies have reported that blastocyst-like structures, named blastoids, can be generated from mouse ESCs (embryonic stem cells) or EPSCs (extended pluripotent stem cells). In this study, to explore the dynamic expression characteristics of proteins and their PTMs in mouse EPS blastoids, we revealed the protein expression profile of EPS-blastoids and metabolite characteristics by TMT-based quantitative mass spectrometry (MS) strategy. Furthermore, the protein phosphorylation sites were identified to show the phosphoproteomic analysis in blastoids compared with mouse early embryos. Above all, our study revealed the protein expression profile of EPS blastoids compared with mouse embryos during preimplantation development and indicated that glucose metabolism is key to blastoid formation.

Bulk and single-cell RNA-seq of mouse blastocyst, blastoid Trophoblast stem cells and Embryonic stem cells

Project description:We did bulk and single cell RNA sequencing of blastocysts, blastoids, trophoblast stem cells (TSC) and embryonic stem cells (ESC). The goal of these experiment is to describe the transformations of the transcriptome occurring within cells (TSC, ESC) upon formation of a blastoid. E3.25 and E3.5 blastocysts are used as controls. To this end, we first did RNA sequencing of intact structures (E3.25 and E3.5 blastocysts, blastoids, and parental cell lines). In a different series of experiments, we micro-dissected blastocyst, blastoid or trophosphere structures into single cells, and sequenced their mRNAs, to infer cell identity and transcriptome variations.
