Soft Hydrogels Support Differentiation of Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells toward Mesenchymal Stromal Cells [methylation]

ABSTRACT: Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) can be differentiated toward mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs), but at least on epigenetic level this transition remains incomplete with the current culture conditions. Hydrogels provide a more physiologic three-dimensional environment for in vitro cell culture than conventional tissue culture plastic (TCP). In this study, we followed the hypothesis that growth and differentiation of primary MSCs and of iPSC-derived MSCs (iMSCs) can be enhanced on hydrogels. To this end, we used a hydrogel made of human platelet lysate (hPL). MSCs were effectively cultured on and inside hPL-gel and demonstrated more structured deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM) components than TCP. Furthermore, hPL-gel supported differentiation of iPSCs toward MSCs. Unexpectedly, the differentiation process seemed to be hardly affected by the substrate: iMSCs generated either on TCP or hPL-gel did not reveal differences in morphology, immunophenotype, or differentiation potential. Moreover, global gene expression and DNA-methylation profiles were almost identical in iMSCs generated on TCP or hPL-gel. Our results indicate that matrix elasticity is less crucial for directed lineage-specific differentiation toward MSCs than expected.

Matrix Elasticity Does Not Affect Replicative Senescence or DNA Methylation Patterns of Mesenchymal Stem Cells [DNAm profiling]

Project description:Matrix elasticity influences differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) but it is unclear if these effects are only transient - while the cells reside on the substrate - or if they reflect persistent lineage commitment. In this study, MSCs were continuously culture-expanded in parallel either on polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) gels of different elasticity or on tissue culture plastic (TCP) to compare impact on replicative senescence, in vitro differentiation, gene expression, and DNA methylation (DNAm) profiles. The maximal number of cumulative population doublings was not affected by matrix elasticity. Differentiation towards adipogenic and osteogenic lineage was increased on soft and rigid biomaterials, respectively - but this propensity was no more evident if cells were transferred to TCP. Global gene expression profiles and DNAm profiles revealed relatively few differences in MSCs cultured on soft or rigid matrices. Furthermore, only moderate DNAm changes were observed upon culture on very soft hydrogels of human platelet lysate (hPL-gel). Our results support the notion that matrix elasticity influences cellular differentiation while the cells are organized on the substrate, but it does not have major impact on cell-intrinsic lineage determination, replicative senescence or DNAm patterns. 20 samples were hybridized to the Illumina Infinium 450k Human Methylation Beadchip

Differentiation of Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells towards Mesenchymal Stromal Cells is Hampered by Culture in 3D Hydrogels [RNA-Seq]

Project description:Directed differentiation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) towards specific lineages remains a major challenge in regenerative medicine, while there is a growing perception that this process can be influenced by the three-dimensional environment. In this study, we investigated whether iPSCs can differentiate towards mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) when embedded into fibrin hydrogels to enable a one-step differentiation procedure within a scaffold. Differentiation of iPSCs on tissue culture plastic or on top of fibrin hydrogels resulted in a typical MSC-like phenotype. In contrast, iPSCs embedded into fibrin gel gave rise to much smaller cells with heterogeneous growth patterns, absence of fibronectin, faint expression of CD73 and CD105, and reduced differentiation potential towards osteogenic and adipogenic lineage. Transcriptomic analysis demonstrated that characteristic genes for MSCs and extracellular matrix were upregulated on flat substrates, whereas genes of neural development were upregulated in 3D culture. Furthermore, the 3D culture had major effects on DNA methylation profiles, particularly within genes for neuronal and cardiovascular development, while there was no evidence for epigenetic maturation towards MSCs. Taken together, iPSCs could be differentiated towards MSCs on tissue culture plastic or on a flat fibrin hydrogel. In contrast, the differentiation process was heterogeneous and not directed towards MSCs when iPSCs were embedded into the hydrogel.

Tracking of epigenetic changes during hematopoietic differentiation of induced pluripotent stem cells

Project description:Differentiation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) toward hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPCs) raises high hopes for disease modelling, drug screening, and cellular therapy. Various differentiation protocols have been established to generate iPSC-derived HPCs (iHPCs) that resemble their primary counterparts in morphology and immunophenotype, whereas a systematic epigenetic comparison was yet elusive. In this study, we compared genome wide DNA methylation (DNAm) patterns of iHPCs with various different hematopoietic subsets. Furthermore, we analyzed if additional co-culture for two weeks with syngenic primary mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) or iPSC-derived MSCs (iMSCs) further supports epigenetic maturation toward hematopoietic lineage. After 20 days of in vitro differentiation cells revealed typical hematopoietic morphology, CD45 expression and colony forming unit (CFU) potential. DNAm changes were particularly observed in genes that are associated with hematopoietic differentiation. On the other hand, the epigenetic profiles of iHPCs remained overall very distinct from normal hematopoiesis. Co-culture with MSCs or iMSCs enhanced proliferation of iHPCs and maintenance of CFU potential. However, morphology, immunophenotype, and DNAm profiles did not indicate that additional culture expansion with stromal support increases hematopoietic differentiation. In conclusion, differentiation of iPSCs towards hematopoietic lineage remains epigenetically incomplete. These results substantiate the need to elaborate advanced differentiation regimen while DNAm profiles provide a suitable measure to track this process.

iPSC-derived mesenchymal stromal cells stimulate neovascularization less than their primary counterparts

Project description:Aims Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are being tested and accepted as a source for cell therapy worldwide. However, the advanced age of the patients, together with the difficulties in achieving the required cell amounts, impede autologous treatments. Reprogramming of MSCs into induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), followed by re-differentiation to MSCs has emerged as a promising and safe method to facilitate the cell expansion and the removal of aging-associated characteristics. However, the effect of reprogramming on the MSC’s pro-angiogenicity is poorly understood. Materials and Methods In this study, we use a microfluidic organ-on-a-chip platform designed for vascularization assays to study and compare the effects of bone marrow MSCs (BM-MSCs) and iPSC-derived MSCs (iMSCs) in stimulating the formation of vessels by endothelial cells. Cells were loaded in fibrin hydrogels, injected into the microfluidic channel, and grown for ten days. Key findings Fluorescence microscopy revealed that BM-MSCs promote the formation of long and interconnected endothelial vessels, while iMSCs barely stimulate neoangiogenesis. This was further confirmed and explained by bulk RNA sequencing, showing a decrease of pro-angiogenic agents in both of the iMSCs co-cultures. Furthermore, transmission electron microscopy revealed that BM-MSCs closely associate with the new vessels as perivascular cells, while iMSCs just remain in proximity. Significance These results highlight iMSCs as a promising substitute for BM-MSCs in the treatment of diseases with pernicious vascularization, such as osteoarthritis, ocular degeneration, and cancer.

Senescence-associated metabolomic phenotype in primary and iPSC-derived mesenchymal stromal cells

Project description:Long-term culture of primary cells is reflected by functional and secretory changes, which ultimately result in replicative senescence. In contrast, induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) do not show any signs of cellular aging while in the pluripotency state, whereas little is known how they senesce upon differentiation. Furthermore, it is largely unclear how the metabolome of cells changes during replicative senescence and if such changes are consistent across different cell types. In this study, we have directly compared culture expansion of primary mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) and iPSC-derived MSCs (iMSCs) until they reached growth arrest after a mean of 21 and 17 cumulative population doublings, respectively. Both cell types acquired similar changes in morphology, in vitro differentiation potential, up-regulation of senescence-associated beta-galactosidase, and senescence-associated DNA methylation changes. Furthermore, MSCs and iMSCs revealed overlapping gene expression changes during culture expansion, particularly in functional categories related to metabolic processes. We subsequently compared the metabolome of MSCs and iMSCs at early and senescent passages and observed various significant and overlapping senescence-associated changes in both cell types, including down-regulation of nicotinamide ribonucleotide and up-regulation of orotic acid. Replicative senescence of both cell types was consistently reflected by the metabolic switch from oxidative to glycolytic pathways. Taken together, long-term culture of iPSC-derived MSCs evokes very similar molecular and functional changes as observed in primary MSCs. Replicative senescence is associated with a highly reproducible senescence-associated metabolomics phenotype, which may be used to monitor the state of cellular aging.
