Project description:HESC-H9 and iPSC lines 3.5, 3.6 and 3.12 were analyzed using Affymetrix microarray before and after Definitive Endoderm (DE) formation. DE was induced using the ActivinA differentiation protocol described by D'Amour et al., 2006 (PMID: 16258519) Clustering analysis of transcripts that were differentially regulated during DE formation indicated that iPSC lines 3.5 and 3.12 differentiate in manner that is highly similar to HESC-H9 cells iPSC line 3.6 had a more divergent transcriptional profile. Three induced pluripotent stem cell lines (iPSC) and one human embryonic stem cell line (hESC - H9) were collected as undifferentiated (UD) cells, and flash frozen. These cell lines were also subjected to definitive endoderm (DE) induction, collected and flash frozen. RNA was harvested from the frozen cell pellets and hybridized to the Affymetrix microarray chip. The three iPSC cell lines are iPSC 3.5, iPSC 3.6. and iPSC 3.12. In the UD state, iPSC 3.5 was analyzed in duplicate, while iPSCs 3.6 and 3.12 and H9s were analyzed in biological triplicate. All four cell lines were analyzed as biological triplicates for DE induction.
Project description:Human pluripotent stem cells can be derived from somatic cells by forced expression of defined factors, and more recently by nuclear-transfer into human oocytes, revitalizing a debate on whether one reprogramming approach might be advantageous over the other. Here we compared the genetic and epigenetic stability of human nuclear-transfer embryonic stem cell (NT-ESC) lines and isogenic induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines, derived from the same somatic cell cultures of fetal, neonatal and adult origin. Both cell types shared similar genome-wide gene expression and DNA methylation profiles. Importantly, NT-ESCs and iPSCs have comparable numbers of de novo coding mutations but significantly higher than parthenogenetic ESCs. Similar to iPSCs NT-ESCs displayed clone- and gene-specific aberrations in DNA methylation and allele-specific expression of imprinted genes, similarly to iPSCs. The occurrence of these genetic and epigenetic defects in both NT-ESCs and iPSCs suggests that they are inherent to reprogramming, regardless of the underlying technique. Genome-wide DNA methylation profiling by Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation 450K Beadchip was performed on a total of 21 human cell lines, including: an isogenic set of 3 nuclear-transfer embryonic stem cell (NT-ESC) lines, 2 RNA-reprogrammed induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines and their parental neonatal fibroblast cell line; an isogenic set of 1 NT-ESC line, 6 iPSC lines and their parental adult fibroblast cell line (derived from a type 1 diabetic subject); as well as 7 control embryonic stem cell (ESC) lines.

Project description:Lineage-specific differentiation potential varies among different human pluripotent stem cell (hPSC) lines. A stem cell bank may advice researchers on which hPSCs exhibit the highest differentiation potential for a certain lineage. In this study, we aimed at characterizing the hematopoietic differentiation potential from 14 hESC/iPSC lines through the embryoid body (hEB) differentiation system. We carried out gene expression profiling on six different hESC lines grouped according to their ability to differentiate towards hematopoietic lineage: SHEF1, AND1 and H1 were considered as good (high CD45 expression and high CFU potential), whereas H9, HS181 and VAL3 were selected as poor-blood differentiating lines (low CD45 expression and low CFU potential). Human ESC samples were collected during the exponential cell growth phase and stabilized in RNA later. 500 ng of each total RNA sample was labelled with Cy3 using the Quick-Amp Labelling kit and hybridized with the Gene Expression Hybridization kit to a Whole Human Genome Oligo Microarray (Agilent Technologies) following the Manufacturer’s instructions. Each cell line was analyzed as independent duplicates. H9 hESC line was used as the baseline.
Project description:The variation among induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) in their differentiation capacity to specific lineages is frequently attributed to somatic memory. In this study, we compared hematopoietic differentiation capacity of 35 human iPSC lines derived from four different tissues and four embryonic stem cell lines. The analysis revealed that hematopoietic commitment capacity (PSCs to hematopoietic precursors) is correlated with the expression level of the IGF2 gene independent of the iPSC origins. In contrast, maturation capacity (hematopoietic precursors to mature blood) is affected by iPSC origin; blood-derived iPSCs showed the highest capacity. However, some fibroblast-derived iPSCs showed higher capacity than blood-derived clones. Tracking of DNA methylation changes during reprogramming reveals that maturation capacity is highly associated with aberrant DNA methylation acquired during reprogramming, rather than the types of iPSC origins. These data demonstrated that variations in the hematopoietic differentiation capacity of iPSCs are not attributable to somatic memories of their origins.
