Single transcription factor conversion of human blood fate to NPCs with CNS and PNS developmental capacity

ABSTRACT: Direct cell fate conversion allows the generation of somatic cells that are otherwise difficult to obtain directly from patients. The clinical applicability of this approach depends on obtaining an initial source of somatic cells from adult patients that is easy to harvest, store, and manipulate for reprogramming. Here we have generated induced neural progenitor cells (iNPCs) from neonatal as well as peripheral blood from human adults using single factor OCT4 based reprogramming. Unlike fibroblasts that share molecular hallmarks of neural crest, direct OCT4 reprogramming of human blood could be facilitated by SMAD+GSK-3 inhibition to overcome restrictions on neural fate conversion. Blood derived (BD)-iNPCs functionally differentiate in vivo, and respond to guided differentiation in vitro to produce both glia (astrocytes and oligodendrocytes) and multiple neuronal subtypes including dopamine releasing DA neurons (CNS related) and nociceptive neurons (PNS). Furthermore, BD nociceptive neurons phenocopy chemotherapy induced neurotoxicity in a system suitable for high throughput drug screening. Our findings provide an easily accessible approach to generate human NPCs that harbor extensive developmental potential, enabling the study of clinically relevant neural diseases directly from patient cohorts.

RNA-sequencing of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PB MNCs) and induced neural progenitor cells derived from PB MNCs

Project description:We have successfully generated human induced neural progenitor cells (iNPCs) from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PB MNCs). To gain further insights into the transcriptional activation and cellular identity of human iNPCs, we compared the transcriptome of human iNPCs with PB MNCs and published database CORTECON and BrainSpan.

Generation of CNS neural stem cells and PNS derivatives from neural crest derived peripheral stem cells [Dataset 2]

Project description:Neural crest-derived neural stem cells (NCSCs) from the embryonic PNS can be reprogrammed in neurosphere culture (NS) to rNCSCs that produce CNS progeny, including myelinating oligodendrocytes. Using global gene expression analysis we now demonstrate that rNCSCs completely lose their previous PNS characteristics and acquire the identity of neural stem cells derived from embryonic spinal cord (SCSCs). Reprogramming proceeds rapidly and results in a homogenous population of Olig2-, Sox3- and Lex-positive CNS stem cells. Low-level expression of pluripotency inducing genes Oct4, Nanog and Klf4 argues against a transient pluripotent state during reprogramming. The acquisition of CNS properties is prevented in the presence of BMP4 (BMP NCSCs) as shown by marker gene expression and the potential to produce PNS neurons and glia. In addition, genes characteristic for mesenchymal and perivascular progenitors are expressed, which suggests that BMP NCSCs are directed towards a pericyte progenitor/mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) fate. Adult NCSCs from mouse palate, an easily accessible source of adult NCSCs, display strikingly similar properties. They do not generate cells with CNS characteristics but lose the neural crest markers Sox10 and p75 and produce MSCs. These findings show that embryonic NCSCs acquire a full CNS identity in neurosphere culture. In contrast, MSCs are generated from adult pNCSCs and BMP NCSCs, which reveals that postmigratory NCSCs are a source for MSCs up to the adult stage. Affymetrix Mouse 430_2 arrays were used to compare the gene expression profiles of embryonic DRG-derived reprogrammed NCSCs and adult NCSCs from mouse palate.

Nociceptor differentiation from pluripotent cells

Project description:Here we performed the first combinatorial small molecule screen for the rapid conversion of hPSCs into postmitotic neurons. We identified a combination of five small molecule pathway inhibitors sufficient to yield neurons at > 75% efficiency within 10 days of differentiation in the absence of any recombinant growth factors. The resulting human neurons express canonical markers of nociceptive sensory fate. Two treatments (LSB and 3i) at days 2,3,5,7,9, and 15, in triplicate

Frequent and Transient Acquisition of Pluripotency During Somatic Cell Trans-Differentiation with iPSCs Reprogramming Factors (RNA-Seq)

Project description:Recent reports have proposed a new paradigm for obtaining mature somatic cell types from fibroblasts without going through a pluripotent state, by briefly expressing canonical iPSC reprogramming factors Oct4, Sox2, Klf4 and c-Myc (abbreviated as OSKM), in cells expanded in lineage differentiation promoting conditions. Here we apply genetic lineage tracing for endogenous Nanog, Oct4 and X chromosome reactivation during OSKM induced trans-differentiation, as these molecular events mark final stages for acquisition of induced pluripotency. Remarkably, the vast majority of reprogrammed cardiomyocytes or neural stem cells derived from mouse fibroblasts via OSKM mediated trans-differentiation were attained after transient acquisition of pluripotency, and followed by rapid differentiation. Our findings underscore a molecular and functional coupling between inducing pluripotency and obtaining “trans-differentiated” somatic cells via OSKM induction, and have implications on defining molecular trajectories assumed during different cell reprogramming methods. poly RNA-Seq was measured before, during and after conversion of mouse embryonic fibroblasts to neural stem cells using OSKM trans-differentiation method.

3D Model Enhances Human Glia conversion to Neurons with Dopaminergic Functional and Molecular Traits Or: 3D Model Enhances Human Glia conver-sion to Induced Dopamine Neurons?

Project description:Parkinson’s disease (PD), a prevalent neurodegenerative disorder, is primarily characterized by progressive loss of ventral midbrain dopamine (DA) neurons. This focal degeneration makes PD suitable for cell replacement therapies and clinical trials using stem cell derived-DA neurons are ongoing. An emerging alternative to cell transplantation for brain repair is in vivo reprogramming, where resident glia is converted into neurons directly inside the brain. While functional neurons with potential therapeutic effects can be obtained via in vivo conversion in rodent studies, translating this to relevant human pre-clinical models has been limited to two-dimensional (2D) cultures. To mimic three-dimensional (3D) complexity and approximate in vivo-like conversion, we developed a 3D model for human glia conversion. Our model promotes neural conversion and generates functionally mature DA neurons at a faster pace than in 2D. Molecular profiling, single-nucleus transcriptomics and lineage tracing mapped glia heterogeneity, provided mechanistic insights of the reprogramming process and defined neuronal identity after conversion. Our results emphasize the advantages of utilizing 3D models as a reproducible and con-sistent platform for reprogramming studies.

Small molecules enable highly efficient neuronal conversion of human fibroblasts

Project description:Forced expression of pro-neural transcription factors was shown to mediate direct neuronal conversion of human fibroblasts. Since neurons are postmitotic, the conversion efficiency represents an important parameter. Here we present a minimalist approach combining two factor neuronal programming with small molecule-based inhibition of GSK3ß and SMAD signaling, which gives rise to functional neuron-like cells (iNs) of various neurotransmitter phenotypes with an overall yield of up to >200% and a final neuronal purity of up to >80%.
