Combinatorial Extracellular Matrix Tissue Chips for Optimizing Mesenchymal Stromal Cell Microenvironment and Manufacturing

ABSTRACT: Despite the therapeutic potential of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC), there is limited understanding of optimal extracellular matrix (ECM) environments to manufacture these cells. We developed tissue chips to study the effects of multi-factorial ECM environments under manufacturable stiffness ranges and multi-component ECM compositions. Manufacturing qualities of cell expansion potential, immunomodulation, and differentiation capacity were examined. The results show stiffness effects, with 900 kPa substrates supporting higher proliferation and osteogenic differentiation, along with anti-inflammatory IL10 expression, whereas 150 kPa substrates promoted adipogenic differentiation at 150 kPa, suggesting that optimal ECM environments may differ based on manufacturing goals. ECM biochemistries containing fibronectin and laminin further modulated MSC manufacturing qualities across various stiffnesses. Proteomic and transcriptomic analyses revealed unique ECM combinations that induced higher levels of angiogenic and immunomodulatory cytokines, compared to single factor ECMs. These findings demonstrate that optimized ECM environments enhance MSC manufacturing quality.

Extracellular matrix proteome remodeling with substrate stiffness

Project description:Extracellular matrix proteomic profiling Mass spectrometry characterization illustrated a reprogrammed proteome in response to matrix stiffness, including a core subset of 84 ECM-specific proteins, including various ECM regulators and tissue-associated ECM-related proteins. Further, we observe remodeling of ECM proteome with softer substrates associated with metabolic/mitochondrial network (178 proteins), while with 40 kPa substrate (92 proteins enriched) resulting in networks associated with enrichment of collagen biosynthesis, integrin cell surface interactions, and extracellular matrix organization networks.

Substrate elasticity does not impact on DNA methylation changes during differentiation of pluripotent stem cells.

Project description:Substrate elasticity may direct cell-fate decisions of stem cells. However, it is largely unclear how matrix stiffness impacts on differentiation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and if this is also reflected by epigenetic modifications. We have therefore cultured iPSCs on tissue culture plastic (TCP) and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) with different Young´s modulus (0.2 kPa, 16 kPa, or 64 kPa) to investigate the sequel on growth and differentiation towards endoderm, mesoderm, and ectoderm. Immunofluorescence and gene expression of canonical differentiation markers was hardly affected by the substrates. Notably, when we analyzed DNA methylation profiles of iPSCs or after three-lineage differentiation, we did not see any significant differences on the three different PDMS elasticities. Only when we compared DNA methylation profiles on PDMS-substrates versus TCP, we observed clear epigenetic differences, particularly upon mesodermal differentiation. Taken together, stiffness of PDMS-substrates did not impact on directed differentiation of iPSCs, whereas the moderate epigenetic differences on TCP might also be attributed to other chemical parameters.

Substrate stiffness-dependent gene expression profile for cortical neurons

Project description:We undertook mRNA microarray and gene ontology analyses to screen out substrate stiffness-dependent genes. Total mRNA were extracted from E17 cortical neurons grown on soft or stiff substrates at 5 or 16 hr time points. We identified 114 differentially-expressed mRNA transcripts in cells grown on 0.1 kPa and 20 kPa gels at the 5 hr time-point. Among them, 66 were upregulated in 0.1 kPa gel cultures and the remainder were downregulated (compared to cells grown on stiffer substrates). The expressions of three endocytic genes (Cltc, Dab2, and Myo6) and four adhesion genes(Vcl, Robo2, Nrcam, and Cad11) were confirmed by QGP and smRNA FISH.

Substrate Stiffness Dictates Unique Doxorubicin-induced Senescence-associated Secretory Phenotypes and Transcriptomic Signatures in Human Pulmonary Fibroblasts

Project description:Cells are subjected to dynamic mechanical environments which impart forces and induce cellular responses. In age-related conditions like pulmonary fibrosis, there is both an increase in tissue stiffness and an accumulation of senescent cells. While senescent cells produce a senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), the impact of physical stimuli on both cellular senescence and the SASP is not well understood. Here, we show that mechanical tension, modeled using cell culture substrate rigidity, influences senescent cell markers like SA-β-gal and secretory phenotypes. Comparing human primary pulmonary fibroblasts (IMR-90) cultured on physiological (2 kPa), fibrotic (50 kPa), and plastic (approximately 3 GPa) substrates, followed by senescence induction using doxorubicin, we identified unique high-stiffness-driven secretory protein profiles using mass spectrometry and transcriptomic signatures, both showing an enrichment in collagen proteins. Consistently, clusters of p21+ cells are seen in fibrotic regions of bleomycin induced pulmonary fibrosis in mice. Computational meta-analysis of single-cell RNA sequencing datasets from human interstitial lung disease confirmed these stiffness SASP genes are highly expressed in disease fibroblasts and strongly correlate with mechanotransduction and senescence-related pathways. Thus, mechanical forces shape cell senescence and their secretory phenotypes.

RNA-seq of primary rat macrophages cultured on substrates of defined stiffness

Project description:Cells interact with their mechanical environment and respond in consequence. Mechanical cues can have a wide range of influences on cell behaviour, ranging from guidance of differentiation and cell fate to immune activation. The impact of substrate stiffness on primary macrophages - a key player in innate immunity and inflammation - had not been previously studied. We prepared bone marrow-derived macrophage cultures from adult rat hematopoietic stem cells exposed to M-CSF, and cultured these on polyacrylamide substrates of controlled stiffness (ranging from 50 to 0.1 kPa shear modulus, covering the range found in physiological tissues) for 3 days. The RNA from these cells was then extracted and sequenced.

Genomic heterogeneity drives mechanical adaptation in human tumor cells [RNA-seq]

Project description:The progression of many solid tumors is accompanied by temporal and spatial changes in the stiffness of the extracellular matrix (ECM). Cancer cells adapt to soft and stiff ECM through mechanisms that are not fully understood. In particular, it is well known that there is significant genetic heterogeneity from cell to cell in tumors, but how ECM stiffness as a parameter might interact with that genetic variation is not known. Here, we used the method of experimental evolution to study response of genetically variable and clonal tumor cell populations to ECM stiffness. Cell fitness increased on soft ECM over a period of several weeks in genetically variable but not clonal populations. DNA barcode-enabled clonal tracking revealed that sustained culture on soft ECM selects for a few genetic variants. These data provide the first evidence that ECM stiffness exerts natural selection on genetically variable tumor populations. Genome-wide analysis including RNA-seq, ATAC-seq and DNA methylation profiling reveal substantial differences in gene expression between selected populations and ancestral cells which are partially explained by epigenetic modifications. Soft-selected cells are highly migratory with enriched oncogenic signatures and exhibit highly unusual behaviors like spreading and traction force generation on ECMs as soft as 1 kPa. Cell spreading is the directly selected trait but not levels of integrins or adhesion proteins like talin. Overall, these data show that ECM stiffness in solid tumors may drive malignant behaviors through evolution by natural selection.

MSCs on soft/stiff substrates treated with ROCK or myosin II inhibitors

Project description:Tissues are maintained by homeostatic feedback mechanisms in which cells can respond to, but also modify, the chemical and mechanical properties of the surrounding extracellular matrix (ECM). Mechano-sensitive mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) resident in the marrow niche experience a diverse mechanical environment, but ageing can affect the composition and quality of bone and marrow tissues. Here we quantified the compounded effects of substrate stiffness and replication-induced senescence on MSC morphology and their ability to modify their environments through secretion of ECM proteins. The ECM proteome was found to be sensitive to substrate stiffness, but pharmacological inhibition of cellular contractility perturbed this response, decreasing levels of tenascin-C, fibulins and fibronectin. A corresponding change in the ECM of senescent cells, concomitant with a loss of mechano-responsive morphological features, suggested a decoupling of mechanotransduction pathways. Intracellular proteomic and transcriptomic analyses confirmed a decrease in all components of the cytoskeletal protein homeostasis machinery in senescent MSCs. These results demonstrate a senescence-mediated perturbation to cytoskeletal homeostasis, pathways of mechanotransduction and the secretion of ECM proteins considered necessary for tissue maintenance.

Engineered ECMs modulate the expression profile of bone marrow-derived human MSC: implications for HSC self-renewal

Project description:The bone marrow harbours multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) that nurture haematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). The extracellular matrix (ECM) is an integral part of the bone marrow, and the aim of this study was therefore to (a) examine the effect of engineered ECM substrates on MSC gene expression over time, and (b) to determine the functional ability of ECM-cultured MSCs to support HSCs. ECMs were surface immobilised using films of maleic anhydride to covalently immobilise tropocollagen or fibrillar collagen type I to the substrate. Where indicated, collagen type 1 fibrils were supplemented with heparin or hyaluronic acid. All surfaces maintained MSC viability, though cell expansion was ECM dependent. Microarray analysis indicated that both time in culture and culture substrate were important factors regulating gene expression. Surprisingly, a number of MSC genes critical for the support of HSC self-renewal were down regulated during the study period. The functional effects of the different substrates were quantitatively assessed by determining cobblestone area-forming cell frequencies and colony-forming units (CFUs). Progenitor frequencies were similar for all substrates during the first 3 weeks in culture, but thereafter the reference material, plasma-treated polystyrene (PTP), outperformed ECM-based culture substrates, as predicted from expression studies. Likewise, PTP was able to maintain CFUs for extended periods, whereas HSCs rapidly exhausted themselves when cultured on any of the ECM substrates tested. The ability to regulate the expression of stromal factors using reconstituted ECM is exciting and warrants further studies to identify the ECM components/combinations that maximise the expansion of clonogenic HSCs.
