Project description:Cardiovascular progenitor cells (CPCs) can be reprogrammed from somatic fibroblasts by combinations of genes, providing a new avenue for cardiac regenerative therapy. Here we developed a strategy to capture chemically induced CPCs (ciCPCs) during the small molecule-induced cardiac reprogramming of mouse fibroblasts and expand these ciCPCs for a long-term in a chemically defined condition. RNA-seq analysis has been used to compare the expression profile of ciCPCs at early and late passages.

Project description:Stem cell-based approaches to cardiac regeneration are increasingly viable strategies for treating heart failure. Generating abundant and functional autologous cells for transplantation in such a setting, however, remains a significant challenge. Here, we isolated a cell population with extensive proliferation capacity and restricted cardiovascular differentiation potentials during cardiac transdifferentiation of mouse fibroblasts. These induced expandable cardiovascular progenitor cells (ieCPCs) proliferated extensively for more than 18 passages in chemically defined conditions, with 10(5) starting fibroblasts robustly producing 10(16) ieCPCs. ieCPCs expressed cardiac signature genes and readily differentiated into functional cardiomyocytes (CMs), endothelial cells (ECs), and smooth muscle cells (SMCs) in vitro, even after long-term expansion. When transplanted into mouse hearts following myocardial infarction, ieCPCs spontaneously differentiated into CMs, ECs, and SMCs and improved cardiac function for up to 12 weeks after transplantation. Thus, ieCPCs are a powerful system to study cardiovascular specification and provide strategies for regenerative medicine in the heart.

Project description:Cell-based therapies for myelin disorders, such as multiple sclerosis and leukodystrophies, require technologies to generate functional oligodendrocyte progenitor cells. Here we describe direct conversion of mouse embryonic and lung fibroblasts to induced oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (iOPCs) using sets of either eight or three defined transcription factors. iOPCs exhibit a bipolar morphology and global gene expression profile consistent with bona fide OPCs. They can be expanded in vitro for at least five passages while retaining the ability to differentiate into multiprocessed oligodendrocytes. When transplanted to hypomyelinated mice, iOPCs are capable of ensheathing host axons and generating compact myelin. Lineage conversion of somatic cells to expandable iOPCs provides a strategy to study the molecular control of oligodendrocyte lineage identity and may facilitate neurological disease modeling and autologous remyelinating therapies.

Project description:Adult cardioyocytes undergo remarkable dedifferentiation and cell cycle reprogramming/reentery when cultured in mitogen-rich medium, continuously, and give rise to cardiac progenitor cells (CPCs). Using microfluidic device for single-cell capture and whole-transcriptomic amplification, we analyze the whole-genome transcriptomic profile in adult mouse cardiomyocytes (Ctl) and in their derived CPCs, and validate the gene expression by single-cell PCR and PCR array. Using two platforms for DNA methylation profiling: NimbleGen DNA methylation array and CHARM array, the whole-genome DNA methylation profile in myocytes (Ctl) and CPCs were compared and their regulations in relationship to the transcriptomics profile were analyzed. The results demonstrated remarkable molecular reprogramming pertaining to dedifferentiation, loss of cardiac contractile, structure, and function molecules, and reactivation of cell cycle and proliferation genes, significant changes in metabolisms. The reduction of cardiac function and structure genes are highly related to their hypermethylation of the promoter regions. GO and Pathway enrichment analysis revealed distinct coordianted transcriptomic and epigenetic regulation in the CPCs derived from cardiomyocytes. Mouse single cardiomyocytes (Ctl) and their derievd single CPCs were captured using microfluidic deviced and cDNA synthesized and amplified and labelled using NuGENE kits, and regular Affymetrix hybridization and wash protocols were used to process the mouse whole-genome array GeneChip 430 2.0.

Project description:The regulation of multipotent cardiac progenitor cell (CPC) expansion and subsequent differentiation into cardiomyocytes, smooth muscle, or endothelial cells is a fundamental aspect of basic cardiovascular biology and cardiac regenerative medicine. However, the mechanisms governing these decisions remain unclear. Here, we show that Wnt/β-Catenin signaling, which promotes expansion of CPCs, is negatively regulated by Notch1-mediated control of phosphorylated β-Catenin accumulation within CPCs, and that Notch1 activity in CPCs is required for their differentiation. Notch1 positively, and β-Catenin negatively, regulated expression of the cardiac transcription factors, Isl1, Myocd and Smyd1. Surprisingly, disruption of Isl1, normally expressed transiently in CPCs prior to their differentiation, resulted in expansion of CPCs in vivo and in an embryonic stem (ES) cell system. Furthermore, Isl1 was required for CPC differentiation into cardiomyocyte and smooth muscle cells, but not endothelial cells. These findings reveal a regulatory network controlling CPC expansion and cell fate that involve unanticipated functions of β-Catenin, Notch1 and Isl1 that may be leveraged for regenerative approaches involving CPCs. YFP+ cells marking precardiac mesoderm (Isl1-cre domain) were FACS-sorted (w/wo stabilized Beta-catenin). Their total RNA was amplified with the WT-Ovation Pico RNA Amplification System, fragmented and labeled with the FL-Ovation cDNA Biotin Module V2 (Nugen). The hybridization, staining and scanning of the Affymetrix GeneChips were performed in the Gladstone Genomics Core Lab. Raw data generated from at least three independent experiments were further analyzed by the group of Dr. Ru-Fang Yeh at the Center for Informatics and Molecular Biostatistics, UCSF.

Project description:The transcriptional profiles of cardiac cells derived from murine embryos and from mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) have primarily been studied within a cell population. However, the characterization of gene expression in these cells at a single cell level may demonstrate unique variations that are not able to be appreciated as a pool. In this study, we aimed to establish a single cell quantitative PCR platform and perform side-by-side comparison between cardiac progenitors cells (CPCs) and cardiomyocytes (CMs) derived from mESC and mouse embryos. We first generated a reference map for cardiovascular single cells through quantifying lineage-defining genes for CPCs, CMs, smooth muscle cells (SMCs), endothelial cells (EDCs), fibroblasts, and mESCs. This panel was then applied against day 10.5 embryonic heart single cells to demonstrate its ability to identify each endocardial cell and chamber-specific CM. In addition, we compared the gene expression profile of embryo- and mESC-derived CPCs and CMs at different developmental stages and showed that mESC-derived CM is phenotypically similar to embryo-derived CM up to the neonatal stage. Furthermore, we show that single cell expression assay coupled with time-lapse microscopy can resolve the identity and the lineage relationships between progenies of single cultured CPC. With this approach, we found differential propensity for mESC-derived CPCs to become SMCs or CMs, whereas single embryo-derived CPC to become either EDCs or CMs. These results demonstrate that multiplex gene expression analysis in single cells is a powerful tool in examining the unique behavior in individual embryo- or mESC-derived cardiac cells.
