Bankable human iPSC-derived Retinal Progenitors as a New Source of Multipotent Cells

ABSTRACT: Retinal progenitor cells (RPCs) are the source of all retinal cell types during retinogenesis. Until now, the isolation and expansion of RPCs has been at the expense of their multipotency. Here, we report simple methods and media for the generation, expansion, and cryopreservation of human induced pluripotent stem-cell derived-RPCs (hiRPCs). Thawed and passed hiRPCs maintained biochemical and transcriptional RPC phenotypes and their ability to differentiate into all retinal cell types. Specific conditions allowed the generation of large cultures of photoreceptor precursors enriched up to 90% within a few weeks and without a purification step. Combined RNA-seq analysis between hiRPCs and retinal organoids identified genes involved in developmental or degenerative retinal diseases. Thus, hiRPC lines could provide a new source of retinal cells for cell-based therapies or drug discovery and could be an advanced cellular tool to better understand retinal dystrophies.

Single cell analyses reveal the transient emergence of retinal progenitor cells in the ciliary margin zone during human retinal development [scRNA-seq]

Project description:Retina is the innermost, light-sensitive layer that lines the back of the eye and is vital for light sensing and image processing. All the retinal cells types are derived from retinal progenitor cells (RPCs) in an orderly spatio-temporal manner that has been well studied in vertebrates. To better understand the emergence of RPCs, their localisation and differentiation to retinal lineages, we performed single cell (sc) RNA-Seq of 24 samples spanning 13 time points from 10-21 post-conception weeks of human development. Several types of progenitors were identified, including early and late RPCs which in turn gave rise the transient neurogenic progenitors that differentiated to all retinal neurones. Spatial transcriptomic analyses combined with scRNA-Seq revealed localisation of early RPCs in the ciliary margin of developing human retinas up to 10 PCW of development and propagation of neural retina differentiation from the centre to the periphery. Single cell ATAC-Seq analyses of 11 samples spanning 8-21 PCW of human development identified Hippo-Yap signalling as key pathway regulating RPC proliferation and cell cycle exit. These results provide the molecular map of human retinal development which may help guide generation of RPCs from human pluripotent stem cells and the design of cell-based replacement therapies for treating retinal dystrophies

Olig2 defines subpopulations of retinal progenitor cells

Project description:Previous lineage analyses have shown that retinal progenitor cells (RPCs) are multipotent throughout development, and expression profiling studies have shown a great deal of molecular heterogeneity among RPCs. To determine if the molecular heterogeneity predicts that an RPC will produce particular types of progeny, clonal lineage analysis was used to investigate the progeny of a subset of RPCs, those that express the basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factor, Olig2. In contrast to the large and complex set of clones generated by viral marking of random embryonic RPCs, the embryonic Olig2+ RPCs underwent terminal divisions, producing small clones with primarily two of the five cell types being made by the pool of RPCs at that time. The embryonically produced cell types made by Olig2+ RPCs were cone photoreceptors and horizontal cell (HC) interneurons. Moreover, the embryonic Olig2+ RPC did not make the later Olig2+ RPC. The later, postnatal Olig2+ RPCs also made terminal divisions, which were biased towards production of rod photoreceptors and amacrine cell (AC) interneurons. These data indicate that the multipotent progenitor pool is made up of distinctive types of RPCs, which have biases towards producing subsets of retinal neurons in a terminal division, with the types of neurons produced varying over time. This strategy is similar to that of the developing Drosophila melanogaster ventral nerve cord, with the Olig2+ cells behaving as ganglion mother cells. Single retinal cells were isolated in tubes containing lysis buffer, their mRNAs were reverse transcribed, and the resulting cDNAs were PCR amplified for 35 cycles. Labeled cDNA samples were hybridized to Affymetrix 430 2.0 microarrays and the data was normalized using MAS5.0 software. These cells were examined for the expression of Olig2 or other bHLH factors.

Integrative Single-cell Transcriptomics and Single-cell Epigenomics Mapping the Developmental Dynamics of Fetal Retina

Project description:The underlying mechanisms that determine gene expression and chromatin accessibility in retinogenesis are poorly understood. Here, we performed scRNA-seq and scATAC-seq on human embryonic retina samples from 9 to 26 post-conceptional weeks, explored the heterogeneity of retinal progenitor cells (RPCs) and neurogenic RPCs (NPCs), and verified the differentiation trajectory from RPCs to seven major types of retinal cells. Additionally, we identified cell-lineage-determining transcription factors (TFs) and refined their gene regulatory networks (GRNs) at transcriptomic and epigenomic levels. The inhibitor of RE-1 silencing transcription factor (REST) on retinospheres was found to have led to more neurogenesis with regular arrangement, whereas a decrease of Müller glial cells was observed. We also described the classification of developing RPC-derived cells and their correlation with pathogenic genes of multiple ocular diseases. Overall, we provided a framework for integrated exploration of the developmental dynamics of the human primary retina at the single-cell resolution.

RNA sequencing of E15.5 retinal tissue from control and Lhx2 CKO mice

Project description:Lhx2 is a retinal progenitor cell transcription factor critical for eye development. We previously reported that conditional inactivation of Lhx2 at the start of mouse retinal neurogenesis disrupted retinal progenitor cell (RPC) proliferation, greatly reduced the RPC pool and altered neurogenic output as indicated by changes in the production of multiple fated precursor populations. To identify genes whose expression levels are dependent on Lhx2 at this stage of development, Lhx2 conditional inactivation was initiated at E11.5 in RPCs with the progenitor Cre driver Hes1CreERT2 and retinal tissue was collected at E15.5 for RNA sequencing. The gene expression profiles of Lhx2 CKO retinas were compared to control (Lhx2 conditional heterozygotes) were compared. Downregulated and upregulated gene expression was observed, with some likely due to direct and indirect regulation by Lhx2 within RPCs and others due to changes in differentiation and the altered neurogenic output.

Identification of differential expressed genes among P-RPC, rESC-RPC1 and rESC-RPC2 through genome-wide transcript profiling

Project description:Degenerative retinal diseases like age-related macular degeneration (AMD) are the leading cause of blindness. Cell transplantation showed promising therapeutic effect for such diseases, and retinal progenitor cell (RPC) derived from embryonic stem cell (ESC) is one of the sources of such donor cells. Here, we established two protocols through which two types of rat ESC-derived RPCs (rESC-RPCs) were obtained and both contained some NPCs and committed retina lineage cells. As P-RPCs have been reported to successfully integrate into host eyes, we sough to identify differentially expressed genes among P-RPCs, rESC-RPC1s and rESC-RPC2s through genome-wide transcript profiling. rESC-RPC2 can integrate into the host retina, form synaptic connections and restore visual function after transplanted into the degenerative retinal disease model RCS rat.

LNGFR- and Thy-1-based prospective isolation of human mesenchymal stem cells reveals functionally distinct subpopulations.

Project description:Human multipotent mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), isolated based on their adherence to plastic, show poor growth and differentiation and frequently contain contaminating cells, which limits to clarify their own characteristics. In this study, the identification of two cell surface markers, LNGFR and Thy-1, allowed the prospective isolation of highly purified clonogenic human MSCs. Furthermore, single cell sorting assays followed by in vitro expansion revealed three distinct MSC subpopulations: rapidly-, moderately- and slowly proliferating MSC clones (RPCs, MPCs and SPCs, respectively). While RPCs exhibited robust multilineage differentiation and self-renewal potency, MPCs and SPCs contained a majority of senescent cells and exhibited frequent genome errors. Single cell sorting assays followed by in vitro expansion revealed three distinct MSC subpopulations: rapidly-, moderately- and slowly proliferating MSC clones (RPCs, MPCs and SPCs, respectively). Sample: RPC, MPC and SPC (n=3).
