Transcription profiling of human embryonic stem cell (hESC) derived mesenchymal precursor cell populations

ABSTRACT: We have developed efficient protocols for the derivation of mesenchymal precursors from hESCs. While previous protocols were based on mesodermal induction via co-culture of hESCs on OP9 mouse stroma (Barberi et al., PLoS Biology, 2005), our recent work shows the derivation of hESC derived mesenchymal precurors under feeder-free conditions. The data presented here show a large and highly signficant overlap in global gene expression profiles between hESC derived mesenchymal precursors derived under feeder-free conditions with those derived via OP9 co-culure and mesenchymal precurosrs isolated directly from the adult bone marrow. Experiment Overall Design: These data compare the gene expression profiles of hESC derived mesenchymal precursors derived via the OP9 protocol, with those obtained under feeder-free conditions and adult bone marrow derived mesenchymal precursors. Three samples of undifferentiated hESCs are used for subtracting genes to define mesenchymal precurosr cell specific signatures (see Barberi et al. Nature Medicine 2007 for details).

Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) are a promising source for cell therapy in degenerative diseases. A key step in establishing the medical potential of hESCs is the development of techniques for the conversion of hESCs into tissue-restricted precursors suitable for transplantation. We recently described the derivation of multipotent mesenchymal precursors from hESCs. Nevertheless, our previous study was limited by the requirement for mouse feeders and the lack of in vivo data. Here we report a ...[more]

Project description:Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) are multipotent cells that can differentiate into a variety of cell types forming connective tissue and skeleton, and are essential participants in the development of all organs. However, MSC precursors remain largely unknown. In human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) directed to mesendodermal differentiation through coculture with OP9 stromal cells, we identified a population of mesodermal cells by surface expression of apelin receptor (APLNR1). APLNR+ cells were enriched with precursors generating compact spheroid colonies in semisolid suspension culture. Being formed by single cells, these colonies consisted of a uniform population of mesenchymal cells with a transcriptional profile representative of embryonic mesenchyme originating from lateral plate/extraembryonic mesoderm. Mesenchymal colony formation required serum-free medium and FGF2 as a colony-forming factor, could be significantly enhanced by PDGF-BB, but suppressed by VEGF. When transferred to the adherent cultures in serum-free medium with FGF2, individual colonies gave rise to multipotential mesenchymal cell lines with typical phenotype (CD146+CD105+CD73+CD31-CD43-CD45-), differentiation (chondro-, osteo-, and adipogenesis) and proliferation (>80 doublings) potentials. Consistent with lineage-restricted differentiation pattern, neither endothelial nor hematopoietic cells could be produced from adherent mesenchymal cultures, however endothelial cells could be derived from mesenchymal colonies in the early days of colony-forming culture suggesting that mesenchymal cells arose from cells with primary angiogenic potential (mesangioblasts). Together these studies identified mesangioblasts as the earliest clonogenic mesenchymal precursors at this stage of their specification from mesoderm. This set (11 samples) of expression data is sequential stages of MSC development from hESCs (H1), namely ALPNR+ mesodermal precursors isolated on day 2 and day 3 differentiation, mesangioblast (MB) cores (Day 2 H1-derived cores), hemangioblast (HB) cores (day 3 H1-derived cores), mesangioblast (MB) and hemangioblast (HB) colonies, and colony-derived MSC lines at passage 1 and 5.
