Project description:Compare difference Global expression profile of hiPSCs between hESCs and human Somatic cells, showing that hiPSCs and hESCs is consistent in lineages and indicated that the induce method is safe and reliable. There are three groups of samples, each group has two repeated samples, hiPSCs respectively compared with hESCs and human Urine-Derived Cells.
Project description:In our study, PRDM14 and NFRkB were found to enhance the reprogramming of human fibroblasts to hiPSCs in the presence of OCT4, SOX2, KLF4, with/without c-MYC (OSK/OSKC). To examnie if the obtained hiPSC share similar expression signature with hESC, we conducted the microarray analysis on the hiPSCs, hESCs and fibroblasts. The result showed that all of the examined hiPSCs resembled hESCs, but differed from fibroblasts MRC5.

To examnie if the obtained hiPSC share similar expression signature with hESC, we conducted the microarray analysis on the hiPSCs, hESCs and fibroblasts. The result showed that all of the examined hiPSCs resembled hESCs, but differed from fibroblasts MRC5. 4 hiPSC lines, 2 hESC lines and 1 type of fibroblasts were analyzed in total. Each sample is done in duplicates.
Project description:It remains controversial whether human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) are distinct from human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) in their molecular signatures and differentiation properties. We examined the gene expression and DNA methylation of 49 hiPSC and 10 hESC lines and identified no molecular signatures that distinguished hiPSCs from hESCs. Comparisons of the in vitro directed neural differentiation of 40 hiPSC and four hESC lines showed that most hiPSC clones were comparable to hESCs. However, in seven hiPSC clones, significant amount of undifferentiated cells persisted even after neural differentiation and resulted in teratoma formation when transplantated into mouse brains. These differentiation-defective hiPSC clones were marked by higher expression of several genes, including those expressed from long terminal repeats of human endogenous retroviruses. These data demonstrated that many hiPSC clones are indistinguishable from hESCs, while some defective hiPSC clones need to be eliminated prior to their application for regenerative medicine. Bisulphite converted DNA from 10 hESCs, 49 hiPSCs, 2 hECCs, 6 somatic cells and 3 cancer cell lines were hybridized to the Illumina Infinium 27k Human Methylation Beadchip.

We extracted total RNA from 10 hESCs, 49 hiPSCs, 2 hECCs, 6 somatic cells and 3 cancer cell lines and hybridized them to Agilent miRNA expression microarrays.

Project description:To show the similarity among MAIT-iPSCs, hiPSCs and hESCs and the gradual change of global gene expression of reMAIT cells along with differentiation, this experiment was designed. MAIT cells, MAIT-iPSCs, hiPSCs, hESCs, MAIT cells, and reMAIT cells at the several differerent stages of differentiation were collected. Then, they were applied in this experiment.
