Lineage Reprogramming of Fibroblasts into Functional Neurons and Hepatocytes via Chemically Induced XEN-like State

ABSTRACT: Small-molecule based lineage reprogramming has newly emerged as a promising approach for generating functional cell types. We recently found that the chemical induction of iPSCs from fibroblasts pass through an extra-embryonic endoderm (XEN)-like state. In this study, we demonstrated that these chemically-induced XEN-like cells were not restricted to be reprogrammed to iPSCs, but feasible to be induced into functional neurons, bypassing the pluripotent stage. These induced neurons possessed neuron-specific expression profiles, formed functional synapses in culture dish and further matured after transplantation into brains of adult mice. Notably, by using similar principles, hepatocytes could also be induced from the XEN-like cells. Furthermore, the XEN-like cells are highly expandable (for at least 20 passages), retaining genome stability and lineage specifying potentials. Our study establishes a featured route of chemical lineage reprogramming and may provide a universal platform for generating large amounts of diverse functional cell types via the expandable XEN-like state.

A XEN-like state bridges somatic cells to pluripotency during chemical reprogramming

Project description:Pluripotent stem cells can be generated from somatic cells by using pure chemicals.However, the cell fate dynamics and molecular events that occur during the chemical reprogramming process remain unclear. In this study, we found that the chemical reprogramming process requires the early formation of extra-embryonic endoderm (XEN)-like cells and a late transition from XEN-like cells to CiPSCs, a new route that differs from the pathway of transcription factor-induced reprogramming. Moreover, by more precisely manipulating the cell fate transition in a step-wise manner through the XEN-like state, we identified small-molecule boosters and established a robust chemical reprogramming system, with a yield up to 1,000-fold greater than that of the previously reported protocol. These findings demonstrate that chemical reprogramming is a unique and promising approach in the future manipulation of cell fates. We analyzed the gene expression profiles of intermediate cells obtained from diferent timepoints during chemical reprogramming process,using RNA-Sequencing. Embryo-derived XEN cells (eXENs), chemically-derived eXEN cell lines (CeXENs), embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and chemically-induced pluripotent stem cells (CiPSCs) are used as controls.

Chemical Pretreatment Activated a Plastic State Amenable to Direct Lineage Reprogramming

Project description:Somatic cells can be chemically reprogrammed into a pluripotent stem cell (CiPSC) state, mediated by an extraembryonic endoderm- (XEN-) like state. We found that the chemical cocktail applied in CiPSC generation initially activated a plastic state in mouse fibroblasts before transitioning into XEN-like cells. The plastic state was characterized by broadly activated expression of development-associated transcription factors (TFs), such as Sox17, Ascl1, Tbx3, and Nkx6-1, with a more accessible chromatin state indicating an enhanced capability of cell fate conversion. Intriguingly, introducing such a plastic state remarkably improved the efficiency of chemical reprogramming from fibroblasts to functional neuron-like cells with electrophysiological activity or beating skeletal muscles. Furthermore, the generation of chemically induced neuron-like cells or skeletal muscles from mouse fibroblasts was independent of the intermediate XEN-like state or the pluripotency state. In summary, our findings revealed a plastic chemically activated multi-lineage priming (CaMP) state at the onset of chemical reprogramming. This state enhanced the cells’ potential to adapt to other cell fates. It provides a general approach to empowering chemical reprogramming methods to obtain functional cell types bypassing inducing pluripotent stem cells.

Temporal RNA-seq expression profiling of Sox17-medaited XEN conversion of ESCs

Project description:The transcription factor Sox17 is expressed in early primitive endoderm-fated cells of the mouse embryo and in embryo-derived extraembryonic endoderm (ExEn) stem (XEN) cells. We have shown that overexpression of Sox17 in mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs) drives cell fate to a committed XEN-like cell state (Sox17-XEN cells). When placed back into the embryo, Sox17-XEN cells contribute exclusively to the ExEn. Transient Sox17 expression is sufficient to drive this fate change during which time cells transit through distinct intermediate states prior to the generation of functional XEN-like cells. We identified dynamic regulatory networks driving Sox17-mediated XEN conversion by analyzing a dynamic regulatory map of gene expression bifurcation points throughout conversion, created using RNA-seq time series data. We found that Sox17 orchestrates this conversion process by acting in autoregulatory and feed-forward network motifs, regulating dynamic gene regulatory networks (GRNs) directing cell fate. We have shown that Sox17-mediated XEN conversion provides a powerful tool for understanding the regulation of cell fate changes and for the elucidation of GRNs regulating lineage decisions in the mouse embryo. Total RNA was extracted during a time course of Sox17 overexpression in mouse ESCs at 7 time points as well as from wild-type ESCs and wild-type XEN cells.

OCT4 is expressed in extraembryonic endoderm stem (XEN) cell progenitors during somatic cell reprogramming

Project description:During development, progenitors of embryonic stem (ES) and extraembryonic endoderm stem (XEN) cells are concomitantly specified within the inner cell mass (ICM) of the mouse blastocyst. Similarly, XEN cells are induced (iXEN cells) alongside induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells following overexpression ofOct4,Sox2,Klf4andMyc(OSKM) during somatic cell reprogramming. It is unclear how or why this cocktail produces both stem cell types, but OCT4 has been associated with non-pluripotent outcomes. In this report, we show that, during OSKM reprogramming, many individualOct4-GFP-expressing cells are fated to become iXEN cells. Interestingly, SKM alone was also sufficient to induce iXEN cell formation, likely via activation of endogenousOct4.These observations indicate that iXEN cell formation is not strictly an artifact ofOct4overexpression. Moreover, our results suggest that a pathway to XEN may be an integral feature of establishing pluripotency during reprogramming, as in early embryo development.

Transcriptome-based chemical screens identify CDK8 as a common barrier in multiple cell reprogramming systems [RNA-seq]

Project description:Fibroblasts can be chemically induced to pluripotent stem cells (CiPSCs) through an extraembryonic endoderm (XEN)-like state or directly converted into other differentiated cell lineages. However, the mechanisms underlying chemically-induced cell fate reprogramming remain unclear. Here, a transcriptome-based screen of biologically active compounds uncovered that CDK8 inhibition was essential to enable chemically-induced reprogramming from fibroblasts into XEN-like cells, then CiPSCs. RNA-seq analysis showed that a CDK8 inhibitor, MSC2530818, inhibited pro-inflammatory pathways that suppress chemical reprogramming, and facilitated the induction of a multi-lineage priming state, indicating the establishment of plasticity in fibroblasts. CDK8 inhibition also resulted in chromatin accessibility profile and Pol II occupation profile similar to that under initial chemical reprogramming. Moreover, CDK8 inhibition greatly promoted transgene-mediated reprogramming of mouse fibroblasts into hepatocyte-like cells, and chemical reprogramming of human fibroblasts into adipocytes. These collective findings thus define CDK8 as a general molecular barrier in multiple cell reprogramming processes, and as a common target for inducing plasticity and cell fate conversion.

Establish a rapid and efficient chemical reprogramming platform (RNA-Seq)

Project description:Chemically reprogramming somatic cells to iPSCs is time-consuming and low-efficiency. Here, we discribe a rapid chemical reprogramming condition enabling generating iPSCs from MEFs in 12 days. To further investigate the mechemisms and draw an epigenetic maps during the rapid chemical reprogramming, we performed time-course RNA-seq, ATAC-seq, RRBS and CUT&Tag (H3K4me3, H3K18la, H3K9me3, H3K27me3 and H3K27ac).
