Molecular Insights into Non-teratoma-forming Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells

ABSTRACT: Human induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells are capable of differentiating into derivatives of the three embryonic germ layers both in vitro and in vivo. To date the the molecular differences between teratoma-forming cells and non-teratoma-forming cells has not been analysed. A cell line, B1, bears typical ES cell-like morphology, expression of pluripotency-associated genes, and in vitro pluripotency capacity, but fails to form teratomas after subcutaneously injected into immune-deficient mice based on histological analysis. Besides histological analysis, we characterized the tumors derived from line B1, and teratomas derived from bona fida iPS and ES (line H1) cells respectively, using microarray-based gene expression analysis. The expression levels of pluripotency-associated markers in B1 cells were comparable to that in iPS and ES cells, while the complexity of tissue expression commitment was decreased upon spontaneous differentiation of B1 cells as compared to iPS and ES cells.

Derivation of rat induced pluripotent stem cells that share similarities with embryonic stem cells using a transposon system

Project description:Induced pluripotent stem (IPS) cells have attracted enormous attention due to their vast potential in regenerative medicine, pharmaceutical screening and basic research. The majority of prior established rat IPS cells were generated from somatic cells by retroviral and lentiviral transduction with expression of Oct4, Sox2, Klf4 and c-Myc and using chemical inhibitors of key differentiation pathways. A major difficulty in the application of this technology is the efficient delivery of reprogramming factors and the long-term maintenance of properties of stem cells. Here, we employed the PiggyBac (PB) transposon carrying four 2A peptide-linked reprogramming factors for generating rat IPS cells. These stable rat IPS cells are similar to embryonic stem (ES) cells in morphology, proliferation, teratoma formation, expression characteristic pluripotency markers, developmental potential, and germline transmission. Transcriptional profiling of the IPS cells revealed both pathways in common with ES cells from rat and unique signaling pathway to our cells, including Wnt, TGF and Notch. The cell lines and information obtained in this study will accelerate our understanding of the molecular regulation underlying germline pluripotency and pave the way for exploration of cell-based therapies using the rat. To compare the gene expression profiling between rat IPS cells and ES cells to show if the rat IPS cells had been reprogrammed into pluripotent status like rat ES cells at the gene expression level.

Generation of germ-line competent induced pluripotent stem cells

Project description:We have previously shown that pluripotent stem cells are induced from mouse fibroblasts by retroviral introduction of Oct3/4, Sox2, c-Myc and Klf4, and subsequent selection for Fbx15 expression. These iPS (induced pluripotent stem) cells are similar to embryonic stem (ES) cells in morphology, proliferation and teratoma formation. Fbx15-iPS cells, however, are different in gene expression and DNA methylation patterns and fail to produce adult chimeras. Here we show that selection for Nanog results in germ-line competent iPS cells, with more ES cell-like gene expression and DNA methylation patterns. The four transgenes were strongly silenced. We obtained adult chimeras from seven Nanog-iPS clones, with one clone transmitted through the germ-line to the next generation. Approximately 20% of the offspring developed tumors, where c-Myc transgene was reactivated. Thus iPS cells competent for germ-line chimeras can be obtained from fibroblasts, but retroviral introduction of c-Myc should be avoided for clinical application. Keywords: cell type comparison

Undifferentiated cells and xenografts of human pluripotent stem cells and embryonal carcinoma cells.

Project description:Here we analyzed undifferentiated cells and perfomed the Teratoma assay for a normal human embryonic stem cell line (H9(+Dox)), a human embryonic stem cell line with a mesendodermal differentiation bias (H9Hyb), a normal human induced pluripotent stem cell line (LU07), a human induced pluripotent stem cell line with reactivated transgenes (LU07+Dox) and a human embryonal carcinoma cell line (EC). The ability to form teratomas in vivo containing multiple somatic cell types is regarded as functional evidence of pluripotency for human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs). Since the Teratoma assay is animal-dependent, laborious and only qualitative, the PluriTest and the hPSC ScoreCard assay have been developed as in vitro alternatives. Here we compared normal hPSCs, induced hPSCs (hiPSCs) with reactivated reprogramming transgenes and human embryonal carcinoma (hEC) cells in these assays. While normal hPSCs gave rise to typical teratomas, the xenografts of the hEC cells and the hiPSCs with reactivated reprogramming transgenes were largely undifferentiated and malignant. The hPSC ScoreCard assay confirmed the line-specific differentiation propensities in vitro. However, when undifferentiated cells were analysed with PluriTest only hEC cells were identified as abnormal whereas all other cell lines were indistinguishable and resembled normal hPSCs. Our results indicate that pluripotency assays are best selected on the basis of intended downstream applications.

Expression data from diploid and aneuoploid human pluripotent stem cells-derived teratomas

Project description:Teratoma formation is the gold standard assay for testing the capacity of human stem cells to differentiate into all embryonic germ layers. Although widely used, little effort has been made to transform this qualitative assay into a quantitative one. Using gene expression data from a wide variety of cells, we created a gene scorecard representing tissues from all three germ layers as well as an extraembryonic tissue. A calculated grade using this gene list successfully distinguishes pluripotent stem cell-initiated teratomas from malignant tumors, thereby translating cell potency into a quantitative measure. This new methodology, named TeratoScore, thus assesses the pluripotency of human cells, and is easily performed using an open-source code. The new teratoma database also allowed us to examine the gene expression differences between tumors with a diploid karyotype and those initiated by aneuploid cells. We found that while teratomas originating from aneuploid cells pass the TeratoScore benchmark for pluripotency, they exhibit aberrant gene expression congruent with human chromosomal syndromes (such as Down syndrome). This gene expression signature is significantly different from that of teratomas originating from diploid cells, particularly in central nervous system-specific genes, suggesting aberrant teratomas may be beneficial for in vivo disease modeling. Teratoma formation followed by TeratoScore analysis can rapidly assess cell potency and allows comparison between different pluripotent cell lines. Total RNA was extracted from hPSC (diploid or aneuploid)-derived teratomas using RNeasy mini kit (Qiagen), according to the manufacture instruction. RNA was subjected to Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 microarray platform (Affymetrix); washing and scanning were performed according to the manufacturer’s protocol

Effect of miR-203 on the transcriptomic profile of IPSCs and IPSC-derived teratomas

Project description:The balance between pluripotency and differentiation is critical during development and regeneration. miR-203 is a microRNA previously involved in differentiation of different tissues as well as in tumor suppression in multiple malignancies. We have shown that miR-203 is able to promote differentiation of embryonic stem (ES) and induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells without decreasing pluripotency. We have observed that transient expression of miR-203 significantly improves the efficiency of ES/iPS cells in the generation of quimeras and tetraploid complementation assays, in addition to inducing complex embryo-like structures when these pluripotent cells are injected in mice. In the present RNA seq, we intend to analyze the trascriptomic profile of WT IPSCs, compared to miR-203 KO IPSCs and miR-203 tKI IPSCs (in which we have induced a transient over-expression of miR-203). Moreover, we analyze the mRNA profiles of the teratomas derived from those IPSCs.
