Gene expression data of hepatocytes derived from human fibroblasts, human iPSCs, and human adult hepatocytes

ABSTRACT: Generation of human fibroblast-derived hepatocytes capable of extensive proliferation, as evidenced by significant liver repopulation of mice. Unlike current protocols for deriving hepatocytes from human fibroblasts, ours did not generate iPSCs, but shortcut reprogramming to pluripotency to generate an induced multipotent progenitor cell (iMPC) stage from which endoderm progenitor cells (iMPC-EPCs) and subsequently hepatocytes (iMPC-Heps) could be efficiently differentiated. After transplantation into an immune-deficient mouse model of human liver failure, iMPC-Heps were able to engraft and proliferate, and acquired levels of hepatocyte function similar to adult hepatocytes. Microarray analysis has been used to show: 1. post-transplant maturation in vivo of iMPC-Heps compared to aHeps, 2. differences between iMPC-Heps and freshly isolated aHeps in vitro, 3. similar profile of freshly isolated aHeps to aHeps and iMPC-Heps in vivo, and 4. similarities of expression levels of most, but not all, genes between iMPC-Heps and iPSC-Heps in vitro. We isolated repopulating nodules of iMPC-Heps and aHeps by laser-capture microscopy (LCM) around 9 months after transplantation and analyzed their gene expression on the microarray, together with RNA from in vitro samples.

ATP7B Gene Therapy of Autologous Reprogrammed Hepatocytes Alleviates Copper Accumulation in a Murine Model of Wilson’s Disease

Project description:Purpose：Wilson's disease (WD) is a rare hereditary disorder due to ATP7B gene mutation, causing pathologic copper storage mainly in the liver and neurological systems. Hepatocyte transplantation showed therapeutic potential, however, this strategy is often hindered by a shortage of quality donor cells and by allogeneic immune rejection. Here we evaluate the function and efficacy of autologous reprogrammed, ATP7B gene-restored hepatocytes using a murine model of WD Mathods and Results: By reprogramming hepatocytes from ATP7B-/- mice with small molecules, sufficient liver progenitor cells (LPCs) are harvested. After lentivirus-mediated miniATP7B gene transfection and re-differentiation, functional LPC-ATP7B-Heps are developed. RNA-seq data show that compared with LPC-GFP-Heps with enrichment of genes mainly in pathways of oxidative stress and cell apoptosis, in LPC-ATP7B-Heps under high copper stress pathways for copper ion binding and cell proliferation are enriched. LPC-ATP7B-Heps transplantation into ATP7B-/- mice alleviates deposition of excess liver copper with its associated inflammation and fibrosis, comparable to those observed using normal primary hepatocytes at four months after transplantation. Conclusion: We establish the autologous reprogrammed, ATP7B gene restored LPC-ATP7B-Heps and further transplantation demonstrate alleviated copper accumulation in WD mice.

Conversion of gastric epithelia to endoderm progenitors by small molecules [DNA methylation]

Project description:Forced expression of transcription factors for lineage reprogramming brings hope to cell-based therapy. However, its application is hampered by risks of potential genetic aberrations and tumorigenicity. Using defined small molecules in presence of gastric stromal cells as feeders, we reprogramed human gastric epithelia into induced multipotent endodermal progenitors (hiMEPs) at efficiency of up-to-6%. The hiMEPs expressed genes relative to endodermal lineages but not associating with pluripotency, and could be expanded clonogenically remaining undifferentiation. Upon induction, hiMEPs were able to give rise to multiple functional endodermal cell types, apart from ectodermal or mesodermal lineages. TGFÎ² inhibition and particular Wnt signaling activation were crucial in reprogramming process. Collective advantages of availability from donors without age restriction, capabilities in expansion and differentiation, and no concern of tumorigenesis, let hiMEPs have the considerable application potentials on cell therapies of diseases such as liver failure and diabetes, as well as personalized drug-screenings. Gastric epithelial cells (GECs) were isolated from human stomach. Human induced multipotent endodermal progenitors (hiMEPs) were reprogrammed from GECs by small molecules. The hiMEP-Heps were differentiated from hiMEPs under hepatic differentiation protocol. Fetal-Heps were isolated from aborted fetal liver. We used RNA sequencing and DNA methylation analysis to detail the global gene expression profile of GECs, hiMEPs, hiMEP-Heps and Fetal-Heps to delineate the difference of these cells.

Generation of functional hepatocytes from extended pluripotent stem cells

Project description:We established efficiently differentiation protocol of human extented pluripotent stem (EPS) cells to functional hepatocytes (EPS-Heps) by simply adding a pre-treatment step before applying the directed differentiation protocol for conventional human pluripotent stem cells. Importantly, compared to hepatocytes derived from conventional human pluripotent stem cells, EPS-Heps transcriptionally more resemble primary human hepatocytes.

In vivo hepatic reprogramming of myofibroblasts with AAV vectors as a therapeutic strategy for liver fibrosis

Project description:We developed in vivo reprogramming of myofibroblasts (MFs) into induced hepatocytes (MF-iHeps) using adeno-associated virus serotype 6 (AAV6) vectors expressing hepatic transcription factors in MF fate tracing (Lrat-Cre;R26R-ZsGreen) mice with carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced liver fibrosis. To determine whether MF-iHeps acquire full hepatocyte differentiation, we used microarrays to profile their global gene expression. We isolated MF-iHeps and primary hepatocytes (Heps) from the same mice by laser-capture microdissection (5 and 3 biological replicates, respectively) and hepatic MFs from CCl4-treated littermates isolated by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (3 biological replicates). Total RNA was extracted, transcribed, amplified and biotin labeled. Labeled cDNA targets were hybridized to GeneChip Mouse Gene 1.0 ST arrays (Affymetrix).

Large-scale Generation of Functional and Transplantable Hepatocytes and Cholangiocytes from Human Endoderm Stem Cells

Project description:The ever-increasing therapeutic and pharmaceutical demand for liver cells calls for systems that enable mass production of hepatic cells. Here we describe a large-scale suspension system that uses human endoderm stem cells (hEnSCs) as precursors to generate functional and transplantable hepatocytes (E-heps) or cholangiocytes (E-chos). hEnSC-derived hepatic populations are characterized by single-cell transcriptomic analyses and compared with hESC-derived counterparts, in-vitro-maintained or -expanded primary hepatocytes and adult cells, which reveals that hepatic differentiation of hEnSCs recapitulates in vivo development and that the heterogeneities of the resultant populations can be manipulated by regulating the EGF and MAPK signaling pathways. Functional assessments demonstrate that E-heps and E-chos possess properties comparable with adult counterparts and that, when transplanted intraperitoneally, encapsulated E-heps were able to rescue rats with acute liver failure. Our study lays the foundation for cell-based therapeutic agents and in vitro applications for liver diseases.

Histone Hypoacetylation Impairs the Plasticity of Human Hepatocytes with Aging [FigS3]

Project description:Although aging associated decline of liver regeneration was discovered half a century ago, how aging contributes to the decline of liver regenerative capacity and how to improve this capacity in the elderly is still unknown. Hepatocyte plasticity is known to play a central role in the maintenance of liver regeneration; hence, we describe a strategy to explore the mechanisms underlying the relation between aging and hepatocyte plasticity: experiments with human induced-pluripotent-stem-cell–derived hepatocytes (hiPSC-Heps). Here, we established a simple and convenient method for generation of hiPSC-Heps that can maintain hepatic function for a long time with gradual accumulation of aging related markers and characteristics. We found that in contrast to rodent hepatocytes, FGF2 is essential for the plasticity of human hepatocytes, and the FGF2-activated MAPK–EZH2 axis can help to reprogram hiPSC-Heps into proliferative hepatic cells with a bipotential differentiation ability. Notably, our results showed the plasticity of hiPSC-Heps decreases with aging and this phenomenon strongly correlates with histone acetylation. Moreover, we found that selective inhibition of histone deacetylases can markedly improve the plasticity of old hiPSC-Heps and primary human hepatocytes and surprisingly increases the repopulation capacity of old PHHs in a liver injury model. Therefore, we can conclude that aging-associated histone hypoacetylation impairs hepatocyte plasticity.
