Project description:Fibroblasts are the most commonly used model in probing the complex process of somatic reprogramming. Although hematopoietic cells represents a more convenient and accesible/ or “an excellent alternative” starting cell type, the molecular mechanisms in hematopoietic reprogramming are poorly defined. In the present study, we showed that hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) with long term repopulating potential, among several HSPC populations, are more amenable for reprogramming, and exhibit an efficient induction of transcriptional program involved in the promation of cell prolifieration and inhibition of apoptosis. In sharp comparison with fibroblasts, HSPCs possess distinct requirements for the activation of Tgf-b and wnt pathways in the initiation phase of reprograming, which can be attributable, at lease partially, to differentiall expression of key signaling genes in these two cell types. Our data demonstrate that lineage and developmental/differentiation stage-specific context define key early events in the reprogramming of hematopoietic cells to pluripotency. Examine the differential global gene expression among different hematopietic cells in reprogramming. LT-HSC, ST-HSC, MP and fibroblasts were used in this study. Doxcycline addition could induce expression of oct4, sox2, klf4 and c-myc, consequently reprogramming these cells into iPS cells. Hematopietic cells cultured with doxcycline for 0, 2, 4 days were sampled, and samples at the same timepoint without doxcycline were also taken to exclude vast gene expression change in hematopoietic cell in-vitro culture. Fibroblast samples induced by doxcycline for 0, 2, 4 days were also introduced to provide comparism between lineages.

Project description:Human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS cells) resemble embryonic stem cells and can differentiate into cell derivatives of all three germ layers. However, frequently the differentiation efficiency of iPS cells into some lineages is rather poor. Here, we found that fusion of iPS cells with human hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) enhances iPS cell differentiation. Such iPS hybrids showed a prominent differentiation bias towards hematopoietic lineages but also towards other mesendodermal lineages. Additionally, during differentiation of iPS hybrids expression of early mesendodermal markers - Brachyury (T), MIX1 Homeobox-Like Protein 1 (MIXL1) and Goosecoid (GSC) - appeared with faster kinetics than in parental iPS cells. Following iPS hybrid differentiation there was a prominent induction of NODAL and inhibition of NODAL signaling blunted mesendodermal differentiation. This indicates that NODAL signaling is critically involved in mesendodermal bias of iPS hybrid differentiation. In summary, we demonstrate that iPS cell fusion with HSC prominently enhances iPS differentiation. 11 samples were hybridized GeneChip Human Gene 1.0 ST Arrays (Affymetrix)

Project description:Hematopoiesis generated from human embryonic stem cells (ES) and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS) are unprecedented resources for cell therapy. We compared hematopoietic differentiation potentials from ES and iPS cell lines originated from various donors and derived them using integrative and non-integrative vectors. Significant differences in differentiation toward hematopoietic lineage were observed among ES and iPS. The ability of engraftment of iPS or ES-derived cells in NOG mice varied among the lines with low levels of chimerism. iPS generated from ES cell-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) reproduce a similar hematopoietic outcome compared to their parental ES cell line. We were not able to identify any specific hematopoietic transcription factors that allow to distinguish between good versus poor hematopoiesis in undifferentiated ES or iPS cell lines. However, microarray analysis showed genes differentially expressed in ES and iPS cell lines according to their hematopoietic potential. These results demonstrate the influence of genetic background in variation of hematopoietic potential rather than the reprogramming process.

Project description:The reprogramming of somatic cells into induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) upon overexpression of OCT4, KLF4, SOX2 and c-MYC (OKSM) provides a powerful system to interrogate basic mechanisms of cell fate change. However, iPSC formation with standard methods is typically protracted and inefficient, resulting in heterogeneous cell populations. We show that exposure of OKSM-expressing cells to both ascorbic acid and a GSK3-β inhibitor (AGi) facilitates more synchronous and rapid iPSC formation from several mouse cell types. AGi treatment restored the ability of refractory cell populations to yield iPSC colonies, and it attenuated the activation of developmental regulators commonly observed during the reprogramming process. Moreover, AGi supplementation gave rise to chimera-competent iPSCs after as little as 48 h of OKSM expression. Our results offer a simple modification to the reprogramming protocol, facilitating iPSC induction at unparalleled efficiencies and enabling dissection of the underlying mechanisms in more homogeneous cell populations. 18 samples were analyzed in total, samples represent bulk cultures of reprogrammable-MEFs (Rep-MEFs) that express OKSM and were supplemented with ascorbic acid and GSK3i during iPS cell induction. Control samples represent similar bulk cultures of reprogrammable-MEFs that express OKSM but were not supplemented with ascorbic acid and GSK3i during iPS cell induction. GMP-iPSCs were generated using 48 hours of OKSM+AGi induction. Fibroblast-iPSCs were generated using 96 hours of OKSM+AGi induction.

Project description:In the context of most induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cell reprogramming methods, heterogeneous populations of nonproductive and staggered productive intermediates arise at different reprogramming time points1-11. Despite recent reports claiming substantially increased reprogramming efficiencies using genetically modified donor cells12,13 prospectively isolating distinct reprogramming intermediates remains an important goal to decipher reprogramming mechanisms. Previous attempts to identify surface markers of intermediate cell populations were based on the assumption that during reprogramming the cells progressively lose donor cell identity and gradually acquire iPS cell properties1,2,7,8,10. Here, we report that iPS cell and epithelial markers, such as SSEA1 and EpCAM, respectively, are not predictive of reprogramming during early phases. Instead, in a systematic functional surface marker screen we find that early reprogramming-prone cells express a unique set of surface markers, including CD73, CD49d and CD200 that are absent in fibroblasts and iPS cells. Single cell mass cytometry and prospective isolation show that these distinct intermediates are transient and bridge the gap between donor cell silencing and pluripotency marker acquisition during the early, presumably stochastic reprogramming phase2. Expression profiling revealed that the transcriptional regulators Nr0b1 and Etv5 are specifically expressed in this early reprogramming state, preceding activation of key pluripotency regulators such as Rex1, Dppa2, Nanog and Sox2. Both factors are required for the generation of the early intermediate state and fully reprogrammed iPS cells, and thus mark some of the earliest known regulators of iPS cell induction. Our study shows an ordered sequence of transitions during the earliest steps of iPS cell reprogramming that deconvolutes the first steps in a hierarchical series of events that lead to pluripotency acquisition. Samples for poised (CD73+ or CD49d+) and non-poised (CD73-) reprogramming samples were FACS sorted 6 and 9 days after induction of Klf4, Oct4, Sox2 and cMyc in Rosa-rtTA +/- mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs). 'Total' populations are expression analyses for unsorted populations analyzed at the same time points. Control populations were also sampled: mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs), partially reprogrammed cells (SC4) and mouse embryonic stem cell (ESC).

Project description:Reprogramming of somatic cells provides potential for the generation of specific cell types, which could be a key step in the study and treatment of human diseases. In vitro reprogramming of somatic cells into a pluripotent embryonic stem (ES) cellM-bM-^@M-^Slike state has been reported by retroviral transduction of murine fibroblasts using four embryonic transcription factors or through cell fusion of somatic and pluripotent stem cells. The generation of reprogrammed pluripotent cells using a somatic cell donor source such as bone marrow (BM) or peripheral blood is of particular therapeutic interest because of the relative ease of harvesting these cell types. Here we show that mouse adult BM mononuclear cellsM-oM-<M-^HBM MNCsM-oM-<M-^Iare competent as donor cells and can be reprogrammed into pluripotent ES cell-like cells. We isolated BM MNCs and embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) from Oct4-EGFP transgenic mice, fused them with ES cells and infected them with retroviruses expressing Oct4, Sox2, Klf4, and c-Myc. Fused BM cells formed more ES-like colonies than did MEFs. Infected BM cells gave rise to iPS cells, although transduction efficiencies were not high. It was more efficient to pick up iPS colonies as compared with MEFs. BM-derived iPS (BM iPS) cells expressed embryonic stem cell markers, formed teratomas, and contributed to chimera mice with germline development. Clonal analysis revealed that BM iPS clones had diversity, although some clones were found to be genetically identical with different phenotypes. Here we demonstrate, for the first time, the induction of pluripotent cells directly from hematopoietic tissue. Gene expression profiling was performed in mouse BMMNCs, ES and BMMNC derived iPS cell lines.

Project description:Wnt signaling is intrinsic to mouse embryonic stem cell self-renewal. Therefore it is surprising that reprogramming of somatic cells to induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) is not strongly enhanced by Wnt signaling. Here, we demonstrate that active Wnt signaling inhibits the early stage of reprogramming to iPSCs, while it is required and even stimulating during the late stage. Mechanistically, this biphasic effect of Wnt signaling is accompanied by a change in the requirement of all four of its transcriptional effectors: Tcf1, Lef1, Tcf3, and Tcf4. For example, Tcf3 and Tcf4 are stimulatory early but inhibitory late in the reprogramming process. Accordingly, ectopic expression of Tcf3 early in reprogramming combined with its loss-of-function late enables efficient reprogramming in the absence of ectopic Sox2. Together, our data indicate that the step-wise process of reprogramming to iPSCs is critically dependent on the stage-specific control and action of all four Tcfs and Wnt signaling. For genome wide expression analysis: A. Tcf3 wt and ko OSK iPS cells were analyzed (ko was performed from 2 different cell lines). B. Tcf3 ko OCK iPS cells were analyzed (2 different cell lines) C. Tcf3 wt and ko OCK reprogramming timecourse was analyzed at the indicated days after the beginning of the reprogramming. D. OCK partial iPS cell clone treated with control siRNA or 2 independent Tcf3 siRNA and RNA were analyzed 48hr after siRNA treatment.

Project description:Studies on porcine induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells served as a great reference for human clinical research due to the similarity in organ size, physiology, anatomy, and heredity between pig and human. However, the reprogramming efficiency of iPS cells was currently poor. In this study, we reported the induction of iPS cells from porcine Sertoli cells (SCs) via infecting with four separate lentiviral vectors expressing pig OCT4, SOX2, KLF4 and c-MYC. Typical embryonic stem-like cells began to form on day 3 after infection, and alkaline phosphatase (AP)-positive colonies were picked up on 7 days. The porcine iPS cells derived from SCs, termed SC-iPS cells, strongly expressed pluripotent markers, showed a normal karyotype, and had differentiation characteristics to the three germ layers and primordial germ cell-like cells via an incipient mesoderm-like cell state. Further results showed that OCT4 was the core factor for AP-positive colonies formation, and the OCT4 and c-MYC were the minimum combination group to achieve the SCs reprogramming process. RNA-seq results showed that SCs could express BMP4 and activate the Wnt signaling pathway, which promoted reprogramming process. In conclusion, our findings demonstrated that the SCs could efficiently serve as a better cell source for reprogramming than porcine embryonic fibroblasts and lay a foundation of achieving the trans-differentiation capacity from SCs to germ cells.
